- 0:35Speaker 1: Osier coming up. We've got a busy show today. Every
- 0:38Speaker 1: Wednesday we always do. It's the Jaguars Titans preview this week,
- 0:43Speaker 1: or as friend Taylor told me earlier today, it's tightened
- 0:45Speaker 1: Tate weeks, that team offense, spreading the wealth, timely defensive
- 0:51Speaker 1: plays last week. Uniform unveiling is always on Wednesday. Jimmy Luck,
- 0:55Speaker 1: the head equipment manager, joins us and he'll unveil with
- 0:58Speaker 1: the Jacks. Will we're on the road this Sunday. We're
- 0:59Speaker 1: going to play big Game Jaguar once again, where we
- 1:04Speaker 1: will pick a Jaguar to have a big game on Sunday.
- 1:07Speaker 1: We'll touch around the league after Week one as well.
- 1:11Speaker 1: Bucky Brooks, John Ojan with us. Now, Bucky, what's going
- 1:14Speaker 1: on out in California? Man excited one Ada getting ready
- 1:18Speaker 1: to see did Jaguars take on another division opponent? Could
- 1:21Speaker 1: be a great start for the Jacks. John, It's Titans
- 1:25Speaker 1: hate week. Did you hear it? Yeah? Interesting story in
- 1:28Speaker 1: that regard JP. I can remember interviewing Fred in the
- 1:34Speaker 1: and what was the media lobby. It's still the media
- 1:36Speaker 1: lobby where Gusts used to do his pressers down in
- 1:38Speaker 1: that older ramp. And this was before JP. This was
- 1:43Speaker 1: after so after Fred's rookie season and the Jags had
- 1:48Speaker 1: lost the game up I think they were still in Memphis, Tennessee,
- 1:52Speaker 1: and this is probably March or April. I was getting
- 1:54Speaker 1: to do a big story on Fred's second year. He
- 1:56Speaker 1: was kind of becoming a star, and I remember him
- 1:59Speaker 1: sitting they're talking about that loss in Memphis, already sort
- 2:04Speaker 1: of hating Tennessee and said, you know what they want.
- 2:07Speaker 1: I just can't give him credit for it. So it
- 2:09Speaker 1: goes back even before that threesome in ninety nine. It
- 2:12Speaker 1: runs deeper Fred. It never goes away, Bucky, right, I mean,
- 2:17Speaker 1: I don't know about you. I don't know if you
- 2:18Speaker 1: have that that level of Tennessee hate being a former Jag.
- 2:23Speaker 1: I mean, look, I certainly don't like any division rivals.
- 2:26Speaker 1: And so when you think about the Tennessee Titans, who
- 2:29Speaker 1: were the use of Orleans when I was playing in Jacksonville. Yeah,
- 2:32Speaker 1: that's not a lot of love loss. You want to
- 2:34Speaker 1: own and dominate the division. And so this is an
- 2:36Speaker 1: opportunity for the Jacks to kind of put a vice
- 2:39Speaker 1: grip on a division, something that I don't think many
- 2:41Speaker 1: of us thought would be possible. And yeah, yeah, well
- 2:49Speaker 1: Bucky actually played in a game It could have some
- 2:52Speaker 1: similarities to this in the old Astrodome in ninety six,
- 2:56Speaker 1: late ninety six, but I think there were twenty thousand
- 2:58Speaker 1: fans that day where he was eerie. How quiet it was.
- 3:02Speaker 1: To me, that's the closest thing I've ever been involved
- 3:05Speaker 1: with is something like what we're seeing now with ten
- 3:07Speaker 1: or fifteen thousand fans. It was quiet, you could hear
- 3:10Speaker 1: all the signals. It was much like what this week's
- 3:13Speaker 1: games are. Absolutely it's a difference the real scene. Well,
- 3:20Speaker 1: we'll find out this Sunday what it feels like in
- 3:23Speaker 1: Nashville at Nissan Stadium, no fans and attendance. This week.
- 3:27Speaker 1: We'll get to this game coming up. It will touch
- 3:28Speaker 1: briefly on last week. Um, you know a Bucky a
- 3:32Speaker 1: great team win. We talked about in the postgame radio
- 3:34Speaker 1: show that you know, Doug Marone in the week. Prior
- 3:39Speaker 1: to the game, I really liked this team's ability, he
- 3:43Speaker 1: thought at least to handle adversity, and boy did they
- 3:46Speaker 1: have some in the game, especially early. The opening drive
- 3:49Speaker 1: right down the field a touchdown, and the second drive
- 3:51Speaker 1: they're knocking on the door again, but the fourth downstop
- 3:54Speaker 1: kind of kind of stymies them. There. They get some
- 3:56Speaker 1: big time defensive place set up some short fields, Gardner
- 4:00Speaker 1: Minshew hits his targets, and all of a sudden, the
- 4:03Speaker 1: Jags come away with a big all around team victory.
- 4:05Speaker 1: I think that's the best way to describe last week.
- 4:08Speaker 1: That is the best way to describe it. Uh. Great
- 4:11Speaker 1: teams are able to play complimentary football at the offense
- 4:13Speaker 1: to defense, the special teams work together. Looking at those stats,
- 4:17Speaker 1: two things stand out. The two takeaways are big that's
- 4:20Speaker 1: the biggest determining factor, deciding factor in football. And then
- 4:24Speaker 1: third down conversion, the ability to get off the field
- 4:27Speaker 1: on third down. The Jacks were able to do that.
- 4:29Speaker 1: That's why they walked out the stadium with the win. Yeah, John,
- 4:34Speaker 1: it was. It was one of those where you you
- 4:36Speaker 1: heard Doug in the post game. They didn't fold up
- 4:38Speaker 1: and go home when things got bad and I think
- 4:41Speaker 1: he just likes the character of the group he has
- 4:43Speaker 1: in that locker room, and it and it showed, it
- 4:46Speaker 1: made him, made him right on Sunday. Yeah, I'll give
- 4:49Speaker 1: him a lot of credit. He wanted his guys. Clearly,
- 4:52Speaker 1: He's not gonna say this, but there are some guys
- 4:54Speaker 1: who left that I think make this a better locker room.
- 5:00Speaker 1: I don't think that's why they did it, but whatever
- 5:02Speaker 1: happened happened. He talked all leading up to that week
- 5:05Speaker 1: about the resiliency, and you sort of rolled your eyes
- 5:09Speaker 1: because you thought, how how resilient can a young team?
- 5:13Speaker 1: They came back from four deficits seven nothing fourteen seven
- 5:17Speaker 1: seventeen fourteen, and they played awful for about thirteen minutes
- 5:22Speaker 1: to where everybody watching it thought this one's over there. Yeah.
- 5:26Speaker 1: I don't know if they're tanking, but you sure thought
- 5:28Speaker 1: they were gonna be in the Trevor conversation and they
- 5:31Speaker 1: never quit. From what I've heard on the sidelines, the
- 5:33Speaker 1: communication was incredible, guys pumping each other up. And again,
- 5:37Speaker 1: I know a lot of jaded NFL people roll their eyes. Yeah,
- 5:40Speaker 1: it's all about talent, and I'm sort of one of
- 5:43Speaker 1: those guys. But this is a team that clearly on
- 5:47Speaker 1: Sunday pulled together I would guess better than the last
- 5:50Speaker 1: two Jaguars teams. Yeah, good start for sure. Um, let's
- 5:55Speaker 1: let's start on offense with this with this team right now. Obviously,
- 6:00Speaker 1: last week, Gardner Minshew spread the wealth. He was nineteen
- 6:04Speaker 1: of twenty. First of all, not a lot of deep
- 6:06Speaker 1: shots down field. Um, but he spread the ball out too, Bucky.
- 6:10Speaker 1: Ten different guys made catches for the Jaguars on Sunday.
- 6:15Speaker 1: Tells you a little bit about the depth that's running
- 6:17Speaker 1: around that they think they have. And he's gonna hit
- 6:20Speaker 1: the open guy, and everybody on this offense can contribute
- 6:22Speaker 1: in a different way. Yeah, that's really scary when you
- 6:26Speaker 1: think about preparing for a team when you look at
- 6:28Speaker 1: the hits you and you see ten different receivers that
- 6:31Speaker 1: have receptions. That makes it hard for the defense coordinator
- 6:33Speaker 1: to figure out, Hey, who should be really focused on
- 6:35Speaker 1: who should we take away? For me, it also tells
- 6:38Speaker 1: me that Gardner Minshew is just going to throw the
- 6:40Speaker 1: ball to the open guy. He is not locked in
- 6:42Speaker 1: on a particular player. When he sees someone combs open,
- 6:46Speaker 1: he is going to get them the ball. Takes a
- 6:47Speaker 1: lot of trust with uh the quarterback and his wife
- 6:51Speaker 1: receivers to be able to do that. But I think
- 6:53Speaker 1: that speaks volumes to go to missus leadership ability. How
- 6:58Speaker 1: about Gardner today, John, what to take from the quarterbacks
- 7:01Speaker 1: conversation after the win? You know? Not much? I mean,
- 7:05Speaker 1: I I love Gardner, he's his personality, but if you
- 7:10Speaker 1: really watch his press conferences, he didn't give away very much.
- 7:13Speaker 1: He's sort of this flamboyant guy with the hair, and
- 7:16Speaker 1: you love his commercials, but he's also very much a
- 7:19Speaker 1: football guy, and when he gets in front of the media,
- 7:22Speaker 1: he gives very pet answers. When it comes to even himself,
- 7:26Speaker 1: he doesn't want to give anything away. The only concern
- 7:29Speaker 1: I had on Sunday was when your nineteen of twenty
- 7:32Speaker 1: and you have a hundred and seventy three yards, you
- 7:34Speaker 1: haven't gone down field a whole lot. I know he
- 7:37Speaker 1: can throw the deep ball. I still kind of I
- 7:40Speaker 1: still wonder a little bit at his ability to throw
- 7:43Speaker 1: into coverage and make big, big plays, but I don't
- 7:46Speaker 1: think it's what they're asking him to do. So I
- 7:49Speaker 1: don't know how Bucky feels about that. I got the
- 7:50Speaker 1: feeling the Colt took away a lot of what they
- 7:53Speaker 1: thought he would do well, and Gardner stuck to what
- 7:56Speaker 1: was there that work. I think that's the thing to
- 7:59Speaker 1: watch or going forward with him when he has to
- 8:02Speaker 1: make throws that he doesn't love, what's that gonna be? Yeah, John,
- 8:07Speaker 1: you speak to something that's really important because the way
- 8:10Speaker 1: that Inn after his Coast played him, they didn't have
- 8:12Speaker 1: any film on Gardner Minshew in j Gruten's offense, the
- 8:16Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans will have film and they'll make adjustments and
- 8:19Speaker 1: they will try to take away some of the sweet
- 8:21Speaker 1: stuff that he enjoyed, the quick games, some of the
- 8:24Speaker 1: screen games, some of the movement passes that he was
- 8:26Speaker 1: able to connect on. They're going to focus on taking
- 8:29Speaker 1: that away, and they may force him to push the
- 8:32Speaker 1: ball down the field to see if he has enough
- 8:33Speaker 1: armston to be able to get it done. In the
- 8:37Speaker 1: first half of the game, he had a running game
- 8:39Speaker 1: to really get him going to James Robinson stepped in.
- 8:42Speaker 1: He was my pick by the way for big game
- 8:44Speaker 1: Jaguar last week, and he came through with solid first half.
- 8:48Speaker 1: They didn't run the ball all that much and all
- 8:51Speaker 1: that effectively in the second half, so Robinson's debut was
- 8:55Speaker 1: was really good. Leavisca should not comes in and and
- 8:58Speaker 1: he's lining up everywhere and showing a bunch of things,
- 9:01Speaker 1: as you said, Bucky putting things on tape. Now, defensive
- 9:04Speaker 1: coordinators have to think about those two guys especially and
- 9:08Speaker 1: what you know, where Levisca is going to be, where
- 9:11Speaker 1: is he going in motion? And what does that open
- 9:13Speaker 1: up on the offense. That's a lot to think about.
- 9:16Speaker 1: It is a lot to think about. And Leviscus, you know,
- 9:18Speaker 1: we we knew he had an opportunity to be a
- 9:20Speaker 1: big time playmaker for this team. What he did at Colorado,
- 9:24Speaker 1: we saw him do in that debut performance. I think
- 9:27Speaker 1: the big thing is James Robinson. There were a lot
- 9:29Speaker 1: of unknown uh factors in opinion on James Robinson because
- 9:33Speaker 1: we hadn't really seen him undrafted free agent Illinois State,
- 9:35Speaker 1: didn't know what he was going to bring. Nineties scrimmage
- 9:38Speaker 1: ars on seventeen touches, that's big time, didn't get the
- 9:41Speaker 1: running game going in the second half. We need to
- 9:43Speaker 1: see more, but he certainly proved that he is at
- 9:46Speaker 1: least a serviceable starter at this point. He stepped right
- 9:50Speaker 1: in John and and didn't miss a beat. After the
- 9:52Speaker 1: opening opening drive. There they are in I formation. Here
- 9:56Speaker 1: he goes James. Yeah, I thought he was really big early,
- 10:00Speaker 1: not necessarily getting him point by giving him some confidence
- 10:04Speaker 1: and some footing. When the Colts offense was sort of
- 10:07Speaker 1: just drumming down the field and making it look easy,
- 10:10Speaker 1: there was this feeling of oh. But then when you
- 10:12Speaker 1: thought back to the first drive, the one that got
- 10:15Speaker 1: killed by the lender penalty that j Gruden said today
- 10:18Speaker 1: he really didn't see, so let's get out that. Let's
- 10:22Speaker 1: get that out there. But Robinson had run enough and
- 10:25Speaker 1: well enough that I think it gave the team a
- 10:28Speaker 1: little confidence of Okay, it's not going well yet defensively,
- 10:32Speaker 1: but we've got something we can hang our hat on.
- 10:34Speaker 1: I'm wondering near from Bucky, how much of the second
- 10:37Speaker 1: half was just the Colts taking that away. Was there
- 10:41Speaker 1: a concern with him not being able to run. I've
- 10:43Speaker 1: always thought that basically, as the offensive line goes, the
- 10:46Speaker 1: running back can go, so I don't think teams really
- 10:48Speaker 1: find out about a running back. But how much of
- 10:51Speaker 1: that was that? But yeah, I think a lot of
- 10:53Speaker 1: it was that John come and get to the game.
- 10:55Speaker 1: Because James Robinson is an unknown commodity. You basically dare
- 10:59Speaker 1: the Jackson Jaguars to make them beat you with the
- 11:03Speaker 1: undrafted free agent running back. And so early in the
- 11:05Speaker 1: game he showed it he could run a little bit,
- 11:07Speaker 1: picked up sixty one yards. They say, okay, we need
- 11:10Speaker 1: to slow down to running game. Let's put this game
- 11:11Speaker 1: back on government show shoulders, which is what they did.
- 11:14Speaker 1: They took him away. I think the big thing for
- 11:16Speaker 1: the Jaguars heading into week two, how much more can
- 11:20Speaker 1: they evolve this offense? We saw the basics, We saw
- 11:24Speaker 1: them do the screen game and the quick game, and
- 11:26Speaker 1: we saw the running game. What can they do to
- 11:29Speaker 1: add in an element and dimension When Sinnesse Titans know
- 11:32Speaker 1: what they're facing this week, let's sell get to a
- 11:37Speaker 1: little bit of the preview of the Titans defense. How
- 11:40Speaker 1: much of a difference is Jadeveon Clowney in Nashville Buckey
- 11:46Speaker 1: who I mean, he partician, could be a huge difference maker.
- 11:49Speaker 1: And I think what we have to do is we
- 11:51Speaker 1: gotta get out of her head. What Jadeveon Clowney was
- 11:53Speaker 1: at South Carolina because he's not really that guy. What
- 11:56Speaker 1: he is an explosive, disruptive and defender who is best
- 12:01Speaker 1: against the run more so than the past. He's athletic,
- 12:04Speaker 1: He's gonna slip through gaps. He takes chances. But man,
- 12:08Speaker 1: when he when he guesses right, he blows up plays
- 12:11Speaker 1: in the backfield. They're looking for jadeveon Clowney to give
- 12:14Speaker 1: them a handful of disruptive plays that push the Jacks
- 12:17Speaker 1: behind the chains and allows their pass rushes to hunt
- 12:20Speaker 1: guard to mention, knowing that he doesn't have to run threat. Yeah, John,
- 12:25Speaker 1: you and I were at the Pro day in South Carolina.
- 12:28Speaker 1: Was a long time ago, now, right, John, I think
- 12:32Speaker 1: so it's been a long time. I you know, with
- 12:35Speaker 1: to dave On, I'm not sure why he's not a
- 12:38Speaker 1: better sacked numbers guy, but somebody has followed this for
- 12:43Speaker 1: a long time. I actually have more respect as a
- 12:46Speaker 1: player for a guy who can do what Clowney does.
- 12:50Speaker 1: I think he sets up, as Bucky said, Yeah, in
- 12:53Speaker 1: order for most teams to rush the passer or most
- 12:56Speaker 1: players rested past, you need to be an obvious passing
- 12:59Speaker 1: situations and behind the chains. By said, that's what Clowney does.
- 13:03Speaker 1: Three or four times a game. You look up in
- 13:05Speaker 1: its second and eleven because of a play he made
- 13:08Speaker 1: that helps the defense so much more than staff doesn't
- 13:11Speaker 1: necessarily get paid, but it certainly helps your team. It does. Yeah,
- 13:18Speaker 1: go ahead, Bucky. Sorry. Jake Gruden today mentioned when he
- 13:27Speaker 1: was asked about this defense and watching tape that he
- 13:31Speaker 1: was not able to sleep except for about an hour
- 13:33Speaker 1: looking at all the blitz concepts from last year on
- 13:36Speaker 1: this group. Um, what do they do so well in
- 13:39Speaker 1: that department? Bucky and some other guys that stand out
- 13:42Speaker 1: on this Titans defense. Look, they are a ververy physical team.
- 13:47Speaker 1: The first thing that steps stands out to me when
- 13:50Speaker 1: I look at him. Very physical team. They want to
- 13:52Speaker 1: bring it to you. They want to make sure that
- 13:54Speaker 1: uh they make it a fist fight in their phone
- 13:56Speaker 1: booths up front. Simmons is the guy that you have
- 13:58Speaker 1: to watch. Jimmy sim Is. This a guy that coming
- 14:01Speaker 1: out of Mississippi State, he was a dominant player, arguably
- 14:04Speaker 1: one of the best players, if not the best defensive
- 14:06Speaker 1: player in that draft. He is a guy that is
- 14:08Speaker 1: disruptive at the point of attack, and so if he
- 14:10Speaker 1: gets going, it really sets the table for the rest
- 14:13Speaker 1: of the guys. Rosie Evans was thrown out of the
- 14:15Speaker 1: game on Monday but that linebacker from Alabama sideline to
- 14:19Speaker 1: sideline menace. He's tough and physical. And then in the
- 14:22Speaker 1: back end Kenny Macaro, Kevin Bayer, guys that can pick
- 14:26Speaker 1: off passes and do a bunch of different things. They
- 14:28Speaker 1: are a very dynamic defense. They give you a bunch
- 14:31Speaker 1: of different looks. Gardner miss she is going to have
- 14:33Speaker 1: to be on his p's and ques to be able
- 14:34Speaker 1: to understand and anticipate what they're doing to him. Yeah. John,
- 14:39Speaker 1: We've seen that back in uh pick off some jaguarris
- 14:42Speaker 1: passes over the years here, and you know, it's just
- 14:45Speaker 1: it feels like and we're gonna get to this on
- 14:48Speaker 1: the offensive side for Tennessee and the Jags defense, but
- 14:51Speaker 1: it's always that kind of physical type of football game.
- 14:55Speaker 1: It really has that feel again, John, Well me, the
- 14:59Speaker 1: Titans are what you want to be on defense. I
- 15:01Speaker 1: don't know that they have an out and out superstar,
- 15:03Speaker 1: but at every level they've got guys who can really play.
- 15:06Speaker 1: I think for them, Jackson being out this week is
- 15:09Speaker 1: a little bit of a concern. It keeps their secondary
- 15:11Speaker 1: very young. The question is, you know, can the Jaguars
- 15:14Speaker 1: run well enough to get in some good situations to
- 15:18Speaker 1: take advantage of that secondary. If they can't run early,
- 15:20Speaker 1: then all of a sudden they're in obvious passing situations
- 15:23Speaker 1: and have trouble getting to the secondary. But you know,
- 15:26Speaker 1: the Jaguars want to be a physical team this year.
- 15:28Speaker 1: J Gruden said it begetting on the conference call. They
- 15:30Speaker 1: want to be able to run. They want to depend
- 15:33Speaker 1: on their offensive line. They want to control things offensive
- 15:35Speaker 1: ways to what Tennessee wants to do. To me, this
- 15:38Speaker 1: is a bigger challenge for the Jaguars offense certainly than
- 15:40Speaker 1: the Colts were last week. Alright, So the matchup coming
- 15:45Speaker 1: up this Sunday, one o'clock Eastern time in Nashville. The
- 15:49Speaker 1: Jags and the Titans will come back and get onto
- 15:52Speaker 1: the Jaguars defense what they did last week. Well, how
- 15:55Speaker 1: they match up and defend Derrick Henry. That has been
- 15:59Speaker 1: an issues certainly in the recent history of this series.
- 16:03Speaker 1: We'll break it all down coming up, and we can't
- 16:05Speaker 1: wait to be duvoll together again. The Jags are taking

- 18:50Speaker 1: presented by the Fields Auto Group JP, Shadrick, John Osier,
- 18:53Speaker 1: and Jacksonville from our home studios. Bucky Brooks out on
- 18:56Speaker 1: the West Coast at his home studio. Glad you're along
- 18:59Speaker 1: with today. The Jaguars defense last week had some big
- 19:04Speaker 1: time places. They gave up some yardage, right, but in
- 19:07Speaker 1: key moments of the game made big plays. The fourth
- 19:11Speaker 1: down stop early really kind of slowed things down, and
- 19:15Speaker 1: when it could have gotten away from them early, the
- 19:17Speaker 1: two interceptions later in the game. The DAGs scored ten
- 19:21Speaker 1: points off those turnovers in a seven point final, so
- 19:25Speaker 1: those are obviously huge. Uh. We saw the debut of
- 19:29Speaker 1: the new look linebacker corps and both of those guys
- 19:32Speaker 1: played very well. So Bucky, there was a lot of positive.
- 19:35Speaker 1: I know there was some yardage, but there was a
- 19:37Speaker 1: lot of positive that came out of Sunday's game. On
- 19:39Speaker 1: the defensive side, Yeah, a lot of positive. JP very
- 19:43Speaker 1: impressed with the defense, not necessarily in terms of the
- 19:46Speaker 1: amount of your surrendered, but two things popped to me, uh,
- 19:49Speaker 1: their effort and their physicality. This is a team that
- 19:52Speaker 1: played hard. Uh. Whenever the play ended, US eleven guys
- 19:56Speaker 1: running to the football meeting at the ball and they
- 19:58Speaker 1: tackled very, very well for their first game out. I
- 20:01Speaker 1: think the guy who led the team of tackles doesn't
- 20:03Speaker 1: get enough credit for what he can add to this defense.
- 20:07Speaker 1: Josh Jones look being able to get him smart, tough,
- 20:11Speaker 1: physical player gives them a third level defender that can thump.
- 20:16Speaker 1: I think he's a key addition, and this week he's
- 20:19Speaker 1: really gonna be needed because they're going to need him
- 20:22Speaker 1: to be involved in the run game because they have
- 20:24Speaker 1: to get the big fellow down. I'd say, so we'll
- 20:27Speaker 1: get to Derrick Henry coming up john him. The addition
- 20:31Speaker 1: of Jones and then Joe Schobert stepped in and that
- 20:34Speaker 1: gave Miles an opportunity to slide over and you saw
- 20:37Speaker 1: that second level for the Jaguars defense really step up
- 20:40Speaker 1: and play well. Yeah. I thought Schobert maybe made the
- 20:44Speaker 1: most interesting and important point after the game when he
- 20:48Speaker 1: talked about what happened early and he said, Yea, they
- 20:50Speaker 1: just hadn't hit. They hadn't done anything since December. They
- 20:54Speaker 1: had a light training camp, and as a result, it
- 20:56Speaker 1: just sort of looked, you know, frankly soft early. The
- 21:00Speaker 1: good news is and and the hope that you kind
- 21:02Speaker 1: of grasp Onto is that they got so much better
- 21:05Speaker 1: after that, and I thought they were after the Abrey
- 21:08Speaker 1: Jones stopped. It was a defense that you know, the
- 21:12Speaker 1: yards evened out after that, and I thought they were
- 21:14Speaker 1: the best team in the field after that. Um, Josh Jones,
- 21:19Speaker 1: show Bert and Miles Jack. And I'm gonna consider Miles
- 21:21Speaker 1: Jack a new part because he's in a new position.
- 21:24Speaker 1: So it's dramatically different improving those three spots. I talked
- 21:28Speaker 1: last week about this defense maybe not being dominant against
- 21:33Speaker 1: the run, but better because they allowed fewer breakout plays.
- 21:37Speaker 1: That's gonna be tested this week because guess what, JP,
- 21:40Speaker 1: Derrick Henry is still running from a few breakout plays
- 21:43Speaker 1: the last couple of years, so he's harder to stop
- 21:45Speaker 1: than most facts once he gets into that back seven.
- 21:48Speaker 1: But that will be tested this week. Even as bad
- 21:51Speaker 1: as it was the last couple of years in Tennessee,
- 21:53Speaker 1: if you keep ninety nine and seventy four yard runs
- 21:57Speaker 1: to ten, we're not talking about the asked there was
- 22:00Speaker 1: the run defense, stop the big plays. You know. Yeah, John,
- 22:07Speaker 1: It's funny that you talked about it because what she
- 22:09Speaker 1: described is exactly what Dick Geron used to talk about
- 22:12Speaker 1: years ago. If you're gonna be a top defense, you
- 22:14Speaker 1: have to be strong right down the middle in any sport,
- 22:17Speaker 1: and so when you think about being good at defensive tackle,
- 22:20Speaker 1: mic linebacker, and safety, you have to have playmakers at
- 22:24Speaker 1: each of those spots to be a good defense. Right now,
- 22:26Speaker 1: we've seen the Jaguars gets solid contributions from the players
- 22:29Speaker 1: of those spots. Derrick Henry has scored ten total touchdowns
- 22:34Speaker 1: against the Jaguars all time. One of those reception, nine
- 22:37Speaker 1: of those on the ground. The average yardage of those
- 22:40Speaker 1: ten touchdowns guys thirty four point three yards, and that
- 22:45Speaker 1: includes a sixty six yard reception on a little screen
- 22:48Speaker 1: in twenty seventeen, and then those big runs of four
- 22:51Speaker 1: and seventy four and a lot of those are when
- 22:54Speaker 1: he gets outside. Though. I know we're talking about being
- 22:56Speaker 1: strong up the middle, but when Henriett exput nine eighty
- 23:02Speaker 1: or whatever he is, it's out on a cornerback blocky.
- 23:05Speaker 1: That's not fair. No, it's definitely not fair. And so
- 23:09Speaker 1: this is a game where in the first meeting, tad
- 23:11Speaker 1: Watch has to say, all hands on deck, guys, put
- 23:14Speaker 1: on your big boy pads. You're going to have to
- 23:16Speaker 1: put a tremendous amount of pressure on the running back,
- 23:20Speaker 1: and the best way to stop Derrick Henry is to
- 23:23Speaker 1: not let him get started. Penetration in this game would
- 23:26Speaker 1: be critical because he's a strider, a big down here
- 23:30Speaker 1: running back. When he gets his momentum going, he's tough.
- 23:33Speaker 1: The best way to stop those kind of backs you
- 23:35Speaker 1: gotta get him in the backfield before they get it going. John.
- 23:39Speaker 1: Of course, Now, if if they do get that run
- 23:43Speaker 1: game going a little bit against the Jack's defense, and
- 23:45Speaker 1: you gotta watch out for the play action game. And
- 23:47Speaker 1: I think the Titans guys they have some some guys
- 23:51Speaker 1: on the outside that can make plays in this offense
- 23:53Speaker 1: and a quarterback that can get it to them when necessary. John,
- 23:56Speaker 1: That's that's something to watch out for. Two. If everybody's
- 24:00Speaker 1: sin to stop Henry, here goes some some throws over
- 24:03Speaker 1: the top. Yeah. I spoke to Jim Wyatt, my counterpart
- 24:07Speaker 1: in Tennessee, about this, and he made a good point.
- 24:10Speaker 1: Because of the playoffs last year, everybody thinks this team
- 24:12Speaker 1: is Derrick Henry, and I get that, but Corey Davis,
- 24:17Speaker 1: Bryan Tanny, you know they have the ability to throw.
- 24:20Speaker 1: And there were games last year where they threw their
- 24:22Speaker 1: way to victory. It's, uh, you can't just stop Derrick Henry.
- 24:27Speaker 1: Now for the Jaguars, that's the first step, because they
- 24:29Speaker 1: found out that if you don't, it's all over. So
- 24:32Speaker 1: it's a double edged sword if you will. And I
- 24:36Speaker 1: do think that the Jaguars will do a better job
- 24:39Speaker 1: stopping Henry. I've gone back to this point all week
- 24:42Speaker 1: when they got rolled the last three or four years
- 24:45Speaker 1: up there, they didn't get rolled in the last game
- 24:48Speaker 1: of the season, and seven team they got rolled three
- 24:50Speaker 1: of their times when their season was basically over. It's
- 24:53Speaker 1: a lot harder to get going and tackled Derrick Henry
- 24:56Speaker 1: when there's nothing on the line, and all of a
- 24:58Speaker 1: sudden it gets to be, uh, what's going on anyway?
- 25:01Speaker 1: Why bother? I don't think they're gonna have that this week.
- 25:04Speaker 1: I anticipate a much better defensive game from the Jaguars
- 25:09Speaker 1: this week. In three of the last four we've seen
- 25:11Speaker 1: in Tennessee. Yeah for for first place on the line
- 25:14Speaker 1: this week overall in the a f C South of
- 25:17Speaker 1: those skill guys outside, who do you like the best
- 25:20Speaker 1: for Tennessee? Bucky Corey Davis, A guy like Humphries, A J. Brown,
- 25:24Speaker 1: even the tight end John new Smith can contribute there.
- 25:28Speaker 1: You know, it's funny because it's tough. A J. Brown
- 25:30Speaker 1: and John new Smith are the guys when you look
- 25:32Speaker 1: at the tape, those are the ones that pop, especially
- 25:35Speaker 1: when Ryan Tannehill throws off play action. Is A J.
- 25:38Speaker 1: Brown and John new Smith? Look those whose guys ranked
- 25:41Speaker 1: in the top five in terms of yards after catch
- 25:44Speaker 1: off play action a season ago. So we gotta contain
- 25:47Speaker 1: those guys if we want to have a chance. You
- 25:49Speaker 1: commend a lot of bodies to the box, so you've
- 25:51Speaker 1: gotta be able to hold up in one on one coverage.
- 25:54Speaker 1: It's uh, it's the challenge this week for the Jaguars defense.
- 25:58Speaker 1: But you know, um, they came out and played well
- 26:01Speaker 1: last week. Let's see if they can get a plan
- 26:03Speaker 1: together for Derrick Henry this week. Uh. These are John,
- 26:07Speaker 1: These are fun. This is what it's about, right, battled
- 26:10Speaker 1: for first place in the a f C South. Who
- 26:12Speaker 1: would have thought this outside the building a few weeks ago? Well,
- 26:17Speaker 1: you said fun. I haven't had a whole lot of
- 26:19Speaker 1: fun in Tennessee the last three or four years, JP,
- 26:22Speaker 1: But I get your point. Um, it's uh, you know,
- 26:25Speaker 1: and it wasn't fun for the guys trying to tackle Henry,
- 26:27Speaker 1: But overall, absolutely it's it's uh, nobody or very few
- 26:33Speaker 1: people outside the building thought this is gonna be for
- 26:35Speaker 1: first place. But I do think what I went back
- 26:38Speaker 1: to in the last nice topic, the fact that they're
- 26:41Speaker 1: going to Tennessee early in the season and not late
- 26:44Speaker 1: when it's cold. It's always cold in nash but always
- 26:47Speaker 1: feels like it's raining. It's always gray before the game.
- 26:50Speaker 1: You know that's no fun to play in if you're
- 26:53Speaker 1: out of it. To me, the fact that this game
- 26:55Speaker 1: is up there. Remember the jay Wars won this matchup
- 26:58Speaker 1: last year and nobody thought they would. So it's not
- 27:00Speaker 1: like the Titans have owned the whole series. They've owned
- 27:04Speaker 1: up there. Later in the season when it's over, I
- 27:07Speaker 1: think this is gonna be a much different game. I
- 27:09Speaker 1: don't know that the Jaguars win, but I think this
- 27:11Speaker 1: feisty adversity overcoming bunch the duck team talking about I'd
- 27:16Speaker 1: be surprised if they don't fight the whole game and
- 27:18Speaker 1: make this interesting in the fourth quarter. Yes, and you
- 27:22Speaker 1: talked about that. You talked about gearing up for this
- 27:25Speaker 1: and how tough it can be. I think the big
- 27:28Speaker 1: thing is the change of mentality and the change in
- 27:31Speaker 1: playing style, in my estimation physical. To deal with the
- 27:35Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans, your team has to be committed to playing
- 27:38Speaker 1: a physical brand of football, and it appears that the
- 27:41Speaker 1: Jaguars are buying into Doug Morole's approach. This will be
- 27:45Speaker 1: the test. This will let us know how physical the
- 27:48Speaker 1: team is. But if they step up in welcome the
- 27:51Speaker 1: physicality that the Titans bring, yeah, this certainly could be
- 27:54Speaker 1: a game that's very, very competitive until the end. I'm
- 27:59Speaker 1: just tired of seeing those draw strings flapping off Henry's
- 28:02Speaker 1: pants when he's running down the field and the hair
- 28:04Speaker 1: thing flopping. We've seen enough of that over the last
- 28:06Speaker 1: few years and highlight reels and on commercials on an
- 28:10Speaker 1: NFL network daily basis. Let's come back. We will get
- 28:15Speaker 1: to what the Jaguars will wear. Speaking of uniforms, this Sunday,

- 30:45Speaker 1: good afternoon. You've got some splaining to do to Mr Osher.
- 30:49Speaker 1: I think, yeah, that was a cheap shot. He couldn't
- 30:53Speaker 1: defend himself, so I apologize. You know, it was I
- 30:57Speaker 1: enjoy our back and forth that we have in the
- 30:59Speaker 1: fact that we weren't, you know, together right now. You know,
- 31:02Speaker 1: I just I kind of missed it and I felt
- 31:04Speaker 1: like I needed to poke you a little bit. I'm sorry.
- 31:09Speaker 1: I was reading this, this incredibly fascinating, compelling book and
- 31:19Speaker 1: you know, get what, Jimmy, you come at me a
- 31:21Speaker 1: little bit. Here's my beef Dad Henny was wearing his
- 31:26Speaker 1: hat back in like fifteen or sixteen. This is my
- 31:28Speaker 1: last dag Wars hat. So you know what, you know,
- 31:31Speaker 1: you know what? Who are you pointing me? I love
- 31:39Speaker 1: me some, Jenny. That's flubby here around though? Is it
- 31:45Speaker 1: just a picture book? Words? Bad? There you go, there's words. Okay,
- 31:55Speaker 1: all right, well sorry show sorry, It's okay. No. I
- 32:01Speaker 1: listen to you guys all day, bicker back and forth.
- 32:04Speaker 1: So all right, Jimmy, a week one in the books
- 32:07Speaker 1: and now it's the first road trip. Does anything change
- 32:12Speaker 1: with you in terms of logistics? I know I'm gonna
- 32:14Speaker 1: talk to Hans a mind a little later in the
- 32:16Speaker 1: week about the travel situation. But in terms of COVID
- 32:19Speaker 1: and everything going on, how different is that in your world? Um,
- 32:24Speaker 1: it's a little different. We uh, like toiletries and stuff
- 32:27Speaker 1: we don't we won't put out like uh, you know,
- 32:29Speaker 1: common deodorant and toothpaste and stuff like that. We'll have
- 32:32Speaker 1: a bunch of like individually packed little um like travel
- 32:36Speaker 1: kits with all that in it. We'll do some extra
- 32:39Speaker 1: cleaning on our own, um like some spraying of the
- 32:42Speaker 1: stuff where the players get there. But it's still pretty normal.
- 32:45Speaker 1: I mean, it's we're still playing football. You gotta get
- 32:47Speaker 1: everything set up and put out and go and and
- 32:51Speaker 1: you know, so it's it'll be a it'll be a
- 32:54Speaker 1: pretty normal trip, just with a few extra little things.
- 33:00Speaker 1: What about the feeling on the sideline Sunday, Jimmy and
- 33:04Speaker 1: No Very one of the only two places in the
- 33:07Speaker 1: league with fans first off, which was great, but then
- 33:11Speaker 1: the little adversity early and things picked up as the
- 33:14Speaker 1: game went on and they stuck it out for a win.
- 33:16Speaker 1: That had to be a pretty happy sideline. I'm sure, yeah,
- 33:21Speaker 1: it was. It was pretty cool out there. Um. You know,
- 33:24Speaker 1: there's a couple of times the fans actually got pretty loud,
- 33:27Speaker 1: um for not having many people there. You could hear them.
- 33:29Speaker 1: They're kind of the third quarter things got kind of exciting, um,
- 33:33Speaker 1: you know, during warm ups that did kind of feel
- 33:36Speaker 1: like that fourth preseason game that you know, with not
- 33:39Speaker 1: having many people in the stands. But once the game
- 33:41Speaker 1: kicked off, you know, it felt pretty normal. Um, you know,
- 33:44Speaker 1: and then when we you know, obviously played well, the
- 33:47Speaker 1: fans reacted and so it was cool, like it wasn't
- 33:49Speaker 1: two notes. Well, now I think it will be definitely
- 33:51Speaker 1: different this week with having you know, very little fans
- 33:55Speaker 1: even fewer, so that that may feel a little different
- 33:58Speaker 1: this week. Yeah, no fans allowed in Nashville for the
- 34:02Speaker 1: game this week the Jags and the Titans coming up.
- 34:05Speaker 1: H Is the uniform police still a thing before the game?
- 34:09Speaker 1: Is that still a deal? And and how does a
- 34:11Speaker 1: new player We've got so many young guys on the
- 34:13Speaker 1: team obviously, how do they adjust something like that? It's, uh, yeah,
- 34:20Speaker 1: it's we still have the uniform police. They go around
- 34:23Speaker 1: and check pregame, uh, make sure everybody's wearing what they're
- 34:26Speaker 1: supposed to, no unauthorized logos and things like that. Um.
- 34:31Speaker 1: They do a little presentation during training camp that talks
- 34:35Speaker 1: about a lot of that stuff, and like the fine
- 34:37Speaker 1: system if you're you know, wearing something wrong or or whatever.
- 34:40Speaker 1: And the young guys, like, you know, they now that
- 34:43Speaker 1: they're getting paid, they here, Oh, you get fine for
- 34:45Speaker 1: not wearing that? Right then they'll go okay, yeah, well
- 34:47Speaker 1: we'll wear it. Right, and then the vets will kind
- 34:49Speaker 1: of get in their ears out don't worry about it.
- 34:52Speaker 1: So it's it's a little bit of a balance. Um.
- 34:55Speaker 1: But most of the guys don't like giving away money,
- 34:57Speaker 1: so uh so they'll they'll they'll pretty much listen and
- 34:59Speaker 1: we goind of get up a warning to him before
- 35:02Speaker 1: they they'll give me a list with guys, hey, his
- 35:04Speaker 1: knees or show on her, you know, he needs to
- 35:06Speaker 1: pull his kneepads down or something, and we'll go around
- 35:08Speaker 1: and tell him. And for the most part, they'll fix it.
- 35:11Speaker 1: As long as there's nothing crazy, they really won't get
- 35:13Speaker 1: in trouble. Now we've seen some in the past two
- 35:17Speaker 1: you know what, here's the fine and here's the one
- 35:19Speaker 1: for next week. To let's get to this week's game, Jimmy,
- 35:23Speaker 1: and what this is the the segment every week where
- 35:27Speaker 1: we present you present what the Jaguars will wear. So
- 35:30Speaker 1: if you would, sir, what will the Jaguars wear this
- 35:33Speaker 1: Sunday at Nissan Stadium in Nashville. All right, so we're
- 35:36Speaker 1: going with the white pants, okay, and then we are
- 35:42Speaker 1: wearing black jerseys. You're kind of unusual sometimes teams where
- 35:49Speaker 1: uh wide at home early like we did, and so
- 35:52Speaker 1: we get to bust out the blacks, and and you
- 35:55Speaker 1: know who knows it's probably gonna be Chark week again,
- 36:00Speaker 1: would be it could be, we think Johnny, Oh, I
- 36:04Speaker 1: like it if they warned that combination in Tennessee before, Jenny, Oh,
- 36:11Speaker 1: you got me. Uh, The last couple of times we've
- 36:14Speaker 1: done color Rush are like a mono up there. Um,
- 36:18Speaker 1: a lot of people were thinking we were going to
- 36:20Speaker 1: wear the white jerseys in the black pants. So it
- 36:23Speaker 1: kind of tricked them there a little bit. You gotta
- 36:24Speaker 1: change something up up there, somebody sometimes listen out. I
- 36:29Speaker 1: think I don't know that the Jaguar uniform tracker, he's
- 36:32Speaker 1: pretty good on on what we're gonna wear, so I
- 36:35Speaker 1: actually check with him first. So this means Tennessee's wearing
- 36:39Speaker 1: white jerseys. Then, yes, they're wearing their white okay white
- 36:45Speaker 1: at home, Bucky, what do you think of that? Look?
- 36:47Speaker 1: The black over white for the Jags? Man? How clean
- 36:51Speaker 1: the uniform is anyway? But like, why don't black? I
- 36:54Speaker 1: think I think that's a really combination. Jemmy. Yeah again, Jimmy,
- 37:01Speaker 1: good job, good job. Let's get another one this week, Jimmy.
- 37:04Speaker 1: We appreciate your time. As always, We'll talk to you
- 37:06Speaker 1: a little later. Man, All right, appreciate guys. Thank you.
- 37:10Speaker 1: Jimmy look got him will win last week with the
- 37:14Speaker 1: white on white combination. Let's see if he can get
- 37:17Speaker 1: him a win on the road this week. Jaguars Happy

- 40:02Speaker 1: j P Shadrick, Bucky Brooks, John Osier. It's time for
- 40:05Speaker 1: Big Game Jaguar. This is where we pick a Jaguars
- 40:08Speaker 1: player to stand out for the next week. The Titans
- 40:12Speaker 1: are next on the docket. Last week, let's review, Bucky
- 40:16Speaker 1: had Joe Schulbert, Julio had Josh Allen, and I had
- 40:21Speaker 1: James Robinson. So I'll say I think Bucky might have
- 40:28Speaker 1: been the closest to spot on. What do you think
- 40:35Speaker 1: the defense? The defense came through. We're gonna get it
- 40:37Speaker 1: right this week. I got a good film. Okay, I
- 40:41Speaker 1: like that Josh Allen player. They didn't have a sack,
- 40:45Speaker 1: but he had some freshure. I mean, he's you're always
- 40:48Speaker 1: safe picking him. He's ever gonna have a bad game.
- 40:51Speaker 1: That's a good point. That's an excellent point considering the
- 40:54Speaker 1: pick that's about to come up from yours truly here
- 40:56Speaker 1: in a few minutes, Bucky Brooks, who you got for
- 40:59Speaker 1: us today? Okay, so we understand that we have to
- 41:03Speaker 1: stop Derrick Henry said. That means C. J. Henderson is
- 41:05Speaker 1: going to have a lot of one on one matchups
- 41:08Speaker 1: with A. J. Brown and Corey Davis. He showed last
- 41:10Speaker 1: week did he could hold his own against t Y Hilton.
- 41:13Speaker 1: I'm counting on the young fellow to hold his own
- 41:15Speaker 1: because if he does it, it enables us to keep
- 41:17Speaker 1: another defender in the box. Now, what a game he
- 41:21Speaker 1: had last week and his debut five tackles, interception, three
- 41:25Speaker 1: passes defense. He ended the game on the on the
- 41:28Speaker 1: fourth down play on the sideline against Hilton. And remember
- 41:31Speaker 1: he left the game. He was out being evaluated for
- 41:34Speaker 1: a concussion at one point, came back in the game
- 41:36Speaker 1: and finished that way, John, That tells you a little
- 41:39Speaker 1: something about c J. I thought what struck me he
- 41:44Speaker 1: was sort of Doug Marrons approached personified in a way.
- 41:48Speaker 1: I keep going back to the the series where he
- 41:51Speaker 1: had the intercept. He gets beat early in that series
- 41:56Speaker 1: by T. T. Y Helton, and if I remember right,
- 41:58Speaker 1: he just turned him around. Well, the next play out
- 42:01Speaker 1: he gets a past defense later he ends the drive.
- 42:05Speaker 1: Young players and even any cornerback in this era, you're
- 42:09Speaker 1: gonna give up play and they're so it's so geared
- 42:13Speaker 1: towards the past. Now. If you're gonna look bad at time,
- 42:16Speaker 1: it's gonna be how you respond. He never missed a beat,
- 42:20Speaker 1: comes back. I don't wanna say he turned the game around,
- 42:23Speaker 1: but they got the tying touchdown off his foot. You know,
- 42:25Speaker 1: he obviously has the mental approach of you've got to
- 42:30Speaker 1: put the last play behind you. I thought that was
- 42:32Speaker 1: really encouraging for him, not necessarily that he had the
- 42:34Speaker 1: stat but that he was able to overcome getting beat early.
- 42:39Speaker 1: Now that doesn't happen a lot for youngsters fucking no,
- 42:42Speaker 1: it doesn't. Every Zio you see you playing on the
- 42:44Speaker 1: Island is tough to develop. And the fact that he
- 42:47Speaker 1: had it in his debut performance that Bowls will We'll
- 42:50Speaker 1: see how he continues to act when when people are
- 42:52Speaker 1: targeting him. But right now, I feel really good about c. J.
- 42:56Speaker 1: Henderson on the Island. Okay, John, who do you have
- 43:00Speaker 1: for big game Jaguar this week? I'm going with Miles
- 43:04Speaker 1: Jack and I. You know, I said all offseason, and
- 43:09Speaker 1: I got emails telling me I was crazy. Even got
- 43:11Speaker 1: an email early in the game tell me I was crazy.
- 43:14Speaker 1: I thought his demise last year was the most overrated
- 43:17Speaker 1: story on this team. His problems last year were trying
- 43:20Speaker 1: to make up for others. He was fine at middal.
- 43:23Speaker 1: He's better on the week that I said on Jaguars
- 43:27Speaker 1: Drive Down this morning. He may have a Pro Bowl season.
- 43:30Speaker 1: I don't know if he's gonna go to the Pro
- 43:31Speaker 1: Bowl because of all the popularity involved, but he looked
- 43:35Speaker 1: big time the other day. I think he's gonna be key.
- 43:39Speaker 1: You know, he's a Chase guy, so I don't know
- 43:41Speaker 1: if that really fits stopping Derrick Henry. But I just
- 43:44Speaker 1: think most games out of the box this year. He
- 43:47Speaker 1: is going to have big time games. I think he's
- 43:49Speaker 1: gonna be key in this game. At some point he's
- 43:52Speaker 1: gonna start picking up big plays like he did in
- 43:54Speaker 1: the playoffs in seventeen. Miles Jack is my pick to
- 43:58Speaker 1: have a big game this week and to be maybe
- 44:01Speaker 1: the breakout player, that comeback player of the year or whatever.
- 44:04Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be big time this year, Bucky.
- 44:07Speaker 1: Doug Moron today said you could argue he was the
- 44:09Speaker 1: best player on the field this past Sunday, Man, I
- 44:12Speaker 1: can't dispute it. He was all over the place, levin tackles,
- 44:16Speaker 1: one sack, three quarterback hits, did a great job of
- 44:19Speaker 1: just being disruptive and active. And the more that he
- 44:22Speaker 1: settles back into his old position of being the world linebacker,
- 44:25Speaker 1: the more players we're gonna continue to see Miles Jack
- 44:28Speaker 1: may alright, So Miles Jack is Johnny O's pick. C
- 44:33Speaker 1: J Henderson for Bucky, I'm gonna go with Josh Allen.
- 44:36Speaker 1: You know, um, as you said, John, it's never a
- 44:39Speaker 1: bad pick when Josh Allen is your pick. But I
- 44:42Speaker 1: think for a few of those similar reasons that he's
- 44:46Speaker 1: gonna be in there a good bit against that run.
- 44:49Speaker 1: And yes, I know they want him to to rush
- 44:51Speaker 1: the pastor and do all that, but he's gonna be
- 44:54Speaker 1: out there in those key situations too. And Derrick Henry
- 44:57Speaker 1: on first and second down is running the ball at him.
- 45:00Speaker 1: Let's see how he stands up. He's got the stoutness
- 45:02Speaker 1: to do it, I believe. And it's a big week
- 45:05Speaker 1: for this Jags defense. So I'm gonna go with Josh Allen.
- 45:08Speaker 1: It's never a bad pick. I think that's the reason why, John,
- 45:12Speaker 1: And this is a mammoth difference to me. In past
- 45:16Speaker 1: Jaguars teams against the run. Back when Telvin Smith was here,
- 45:19Speaker 1: the Tights used to run right at him because he
- 45:21Speaker 1: was a hundred and seventy five pound linebacker. I'm exaggerating.
- 45:24Speaker 1: He said he was a light linebacker and he can. Yeah,
- 45:29Speaker 1: I'm not. It's not a secret. The Unique was a
- 45:32Speaker 1: much better past the past rusher than run defender, and
- 45:37Speaker 1: Unique made plays in the run game, but he wasn't
- 45:40Speaker 1: stout in the run game. Josh Allen is more much
- 45:44Speaker 1: more capable of playing big end type football. He's not
- 45:48Speaker 1: the big end, but he is much stouter, much better
- 45:51Speaker 1: against the run. You know, I think Miles is much
- 45:54Speaker 1: better against the run than Telvin was, meaning much better
- 45:58Speaker 1: to hold up those two spa and Telan wasn't here
- 46:01Speaker 1: last year. But the point being they're a bigger, more
- 46:04Speaker 1: physical front I think that starts with Josh Allen. Yeah,
- 46:08Speaker 1: they're thicker. I mean to your point, John and Bucky,
- 46:11Speaker 1: they're just bigger guys. And the big guys play football
- 46:14Speaker 1: well for the most part, if they can move and
- 46:16Speaker 1: do all that. Bucky, Yeah, Like, you have to have
- 46:19Speaker 1: big guys up front. You can't have guys that can
- 46:21Speaker 1: get knocked around a pinball. And this team, the Tennessee Titans,
- 46:25Speaker 1: will test your ability to be stout at the point
- 46:27Speaker 1: of attack. And so we will see. We felt like
- 46:30Speaker 1: there were some improvements in upgrades, but now we'll see
- 46:33Speaker 1: what that front line looks like. Can they hold there all?
- 46:36Speaker 1: That is really the key to the game. Are they
- 46:38Speaker 1: physical enough to go toe to toe with the Titans? Alright,
- 46:42Speaker 1: So big game Jaguars in this week. C J. Henderson
- 46:45Speaker 1: is Bucky's pick, Miles Jack for Johnny go, and I've
- 46:48Speaker 1: got Josh Allen all defensive players because of that matchup
- 46:52Speaker 1: against the Titans run game and that offense in Tennessee.
- 46:57Speaker 1: One final thot here before we get going, we're gonna
- 46:59Speaker 1: introduce thing fairly new here, Bucky, Curious about your thoughts
- 47:03Speaker 1: on this how what was the biggest NFL story or
- 47:10Speaker 1: performance in Week one? What stood out the most to you?
- 47:14Speaker 1: And and maybe who's the m v P of Week
- 47:18Speaker 1: one around the National Football League? Of the games you watched, well,
- 47:22Speaker 1: if you had you here to the street, there's been
- 47:23Speaker 1: this movement in the Pacific Northwest talking about let Russ
- 47:27Speaker 1: cook and so the Seattle Seahawks led Russell Wilson throw
- 47:30Speaker 1: the ball all over the yard thirty one completions out
- 47:34Speaker 1: of thirty five past attempts three and fifty yards, did
- 47:36Speaker 1: a great job, had four touchdowns. This guy has been
- 47:40Speaker 1: in the conversation for m v P for the last
- 47:42Speaker 1: three or four years. This maybe the year where he
- 47:45Speaker 1: finally walks away with some hardware. Yeah, Wilson, the big numbers,
- 47:49Speaker 1: John and and the development over the years is what's
- 47:53Speaker 1: you know? Fascinating too? And I know we're close to
- 47:57Speaker 1: Pete Prisco and early in Russell little Aroun as a
- 48:01Speaker 1: professional player, Pete was on him a little bit, but
- 48:03Speaker 1: he gave him credit that he's developed as the as
- 48:05Speaker 1: time has gone on and has improved as a passer, John, Well,
- 48:09Speaker 1: he's what you have to do. It's it's much more
- 48:14Speaker 1: possible as a young quarterback to win with your legs
- 48:17Speaker 1: running around buying yourself time. But history shows that the
- 48:23Speaker 1: legs only last so long in terms of your ability
- 48:25Speaker 1: to get in trouble. The great ones changed. He obviously
- 48:30Speaker 1: can still get out of trouble with that, but he's
- 48:32Speaker 1: his field vision everything you want. I agree everybody talked
- 48:36Speaker 1: about Lamar Jackson. Russell Wilson certainly has a chance to
- 48:39Speaker 1: be m v P this year. He's something could be
- 48:41Speaker 1: in the conversation it maybe even a little overdue. Sometimes
- 48:45Speaker 1: those MVP awards you get lost a little bit in
- 48:48Speaker 1: it because there's only one of them to get out.
- 48:50Speaker 1: He is an m v P caliber player. Yeah, there's
- 48:54Speaker 1: a lot of quarterbacks playing at m VP levels around
- 48:56Speaker 1: the league, that's for sure. And but yeah, good start
- 48:58Speaker 1: for Russell Wilson. And that'll do it for our show today.
- 49:02Speaker 1: We've we've got a division matchup on Sunday in Nashville, Tennessee,
- 49:06Speaker 1: and Bucky, it's a big one. It's for first place.
- 49:08Speaker 1: How do you see this game? Going physical, physical matchup
- 49:13Speaker 1: as it usually is. I'm sure. Yeah, Look, I think
- 49:16Speaker 1: the Jaguars have a great chance to walk away with
- 49:18Speaker 1: the win. The Tennessee Titans didn't play great against the
- 49:21Speaker 1: Denver Broncos. The Broncos put some things on tape that
- 49:24Speaker 1: I think Jacksonville can steal. I wouldn't be surprised to
- 49:27Speaker 1: see the Jaguars pulled off their second upset in the
- 49:30Speaker 1: second insecutive week two. And oh, Jaguars going into a
- 49:34Speaker 1: home Thursday night game, John, that sounds pretty good to me. Yeah.
- 49:39Speaker 1: The key for this team all season. I don't think
- 49:42Speaker 1: a team this young is gonna have a whole lot
- 49:44Speaker 1: of margin for air, and the Jaguars have to play
- 49:47Speaker 1: with it against the colt when turnovers to uh minimize penalties,
- 49:51Speaker 1: and above all, they have to take advantage opportunities. They
- 49:54Speaker 1: were two for two red zone touchdowns last week. They
- 49:57Speaker 1: also scored when they were at the twenty two yard line.
- 50:01Speaker 1: That's how you win games when you only have two
- 50:04Speaker 1: forty yards and fifty yards total offense. This team is
- 50:07Speaker 1: going to have to be opportunistic and be good when
- 50:09Speaker 1: the situations call for it. All right, we'll see what
- 50:13Speaker 1: happens one o'clock Eastern time kick off at Nissan Stadium,
- 50:16Speaker 1: Nashville the Jags and the Tennessee Titans. Bucky, we will
- 50:21Speaker 1: talk to you in the postgame show after the game
- 50:23Speaker 1: with phone calls again. Let's do it. Let's do it
- 50:26Speaker 1: after a win. That sounds great to me, Bucky. I
- 50:30Speaker 1: will see you on Sunday. John, we'll talk to you
- 50:32Speaker 1: a little later in the week. For our entire crew,
- 50:35Speaker 1: I'm J. P. Shadrick and thank you for watching. It's
- 50:38Speaker 1: Jaguars Happy Hour on a Wednesday, presented by the Fields
- 50:41Speaker 1: Auto Group on the Jaguars Digital Network.
