• 0:48
  Speaker 3: What's up, guys.
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: How's everything it's going?
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: We're rolling right along Rookie Minnie Campus in the rear View.
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: Phase two wraps up this week. Next week, John's favorite
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: part of every office season, Organized team activities begin.
• 1:02
  Speaker 4: Give me more, Give me more OTAs.
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: Bucky.
• 1:05
  Speaker 4: You know the only problem with OTAs is you can
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: only have ten oh.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: Man, I just I just wish that we could have
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: so many of them. I wish we could. They could,
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: they could take place the entire off season.
• 1:16
  Speaker 5: Why can't we go every Tuesday Thursday, Let them get
• 1:19
  Speaker 5: to work, let us feel like football is back. But
• 1:22
  Speaker 5: I'm glad to know that after another week we're able
• 1:24
  Speaker 5: to get some of those practices in. And I know
• 1:26
  Speaker 5: how much you love talent of the completions and stuff.
• 1:28
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: And that's where John really does not like the media
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: schedule this year. He wishes he could go to all
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: ten and cover them. It can only go to one
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: a week.
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: It's a problem.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: It's one a week.
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: Look, I've said a million times. They're really really important
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: for teaching and for these guys to learn what's going on.
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: When you ask us to go out and evaluate based
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: on what's going on or or analyze, that's where the
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: disconnect is created. So God love him for being out there.
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: More power to it. Learn take it seriously. But to
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: ask me, hey, John, what'd you think of Wyatt Mileon?
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: Oh he looked great. He's a big person. I don't
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: feel any more any different about Wyatt Mylon than than
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: the day he was drafted. I think he's gonna be good.
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: I think he's a good fit. We'll see what happens
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: in August.
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's my thought preseason, all those and to that end,
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: the same kind of idea with Rookie Minicamp, except the
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: excitement is there. The rookies are on the field for
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: the first time. It was Friday, and then Saturday was
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: open to the public and nearly two thousand people came
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: out here after an early morning most of the morning
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: thunderstorm situation. Well, he still packed the house, and Travis
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: Hunter is a big reason why. Of course, their first
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: opportunity to see the number two overall draft pick on
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: the field. He played wide receiver exclusively both Friday and Saturday,
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: and then Cohen said after the Rookie Minute Camp that
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: he'll get some defensive work moving ahead starting this week.
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: But buncky, it's all about Travis Hunter. Has seen him
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: move around, same thing though no pads. You're not gonna
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: get a whole lot of idea of what he can do,
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: but you get a little bit of an idea of
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: how he moves compared to the other guys in Rookie
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: Minute Camp beside him, and it's a whole lot different.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: It is a lot different.
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: And the main thing is it appears for both of
• 3:26
  Speaker 5: you guys that Travis Hunter passed the eyeball test. When
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: we talk about the first round, first round, they're coming
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: in making sure that he looks the.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: Parts, so it appears that he passed that test.
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: With flying colors, I got a chance to see him
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: moving around a little bit.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: I saw some of the clips that were circulating on social.
• 3:41
  Speaker 5: Media, and yeah, he definitely looks like a different breed
• 3:44
  Speaker 5: when it comes out there and how easy it is
• 3:46
  Speaker 5: when it's catching the ball and moving around in those things.
• 3:49
  Speaker 5: I also liked the plan of letting him get used
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: to playing one position before they slowly integrate him into
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: the other position. But look, man, we talked about star
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: power and ultimately, uh, you got to have enough stars
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: on your team to win at a high level because
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: those stars are typically your blue chip players. I think
• 4:09
  Speaker 5: he's a rare find, a true superstar who is also
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: an elite player who loves the game. He checks off
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: a lot of boxes when he comes to being a
• 4:17
  Speaker 5: special player.
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he moves different, I mean, and he he brings
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: with him the confidence that he should. He carries himself
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: the only way that he knows how, which is with
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: incredible enthusiasm, a boyish love for the game, all that stuff,
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: and that's what the Jaguars wanted. It's you know, you
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: don't take Travis Hunter and then tell him to come
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: in here and you know, not smile and hey stand
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: over on the sideline.
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, quit dancing.
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: So look everything that you wanted to see in a
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: mini camp, the ease with which he moves that catch
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: right there. You saw it all. And as with anything,
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: nothing matters with this kid until the pad's gone in September,
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: and that's when you'll see sort of how he can
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: hold up physically in this league. And I think the
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: fascinating thing that we'll get into more and more and more.
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: And it's been talked about a lot since the draft,
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: but it hit me when Liam cohane was talking about
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: it JP on Saturday, just how much this can't be
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: a guy. Like when I was in college, JP, I liked.
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: I liked to go to class and just go to
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: class and then go take the test. So I found
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: out after a couple of years that didn't work and
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: I had to go study at night. So I think
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: that's really he's got that, but to do two positions, Bucky,
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: in this league, you got in order to be good
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: at one position, you need to be taking the books
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: home with you to be good at two. This is
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: going to take a tremendous amount of discipline, focused daily,
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: weekly throughout the season to be mentally prepared. And I
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: think they think that he's that guy.
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, So the few different things that I want
• 6:11
  Speaker 5: to touch on before you even get to that point
• 6:14
  Speaker 5: of it. I'm gonna say this, and I want to
• 6:17
  Speaker 5: be very, very honest in my analysis of Travis Hunter.
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: When Travis Hunter was coming out as a wide receiver,
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: I have in my notes that I thought he was
• 6:25
  Speaker 5: more of a playmaker than a polished technician. And part
• 6:29
  Speaker 5: of the reason that originally I skewed towards him playing
• 6:34
  Speaker 5: more defense than offenses. I felt like he was an athlete,
• 6:37
  Speaker 5: like a catch ball, make things happen. Just because I'm
• 6:41
  Speaker 5: a better athlete than everybody else on the field, than
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: this's gonna happen. What I'm excited about is Travis Hunter
• 6:46
  Speaker 5: linking up with Edgar Bennett, who is a very technically
• 6:50
  Speaker 5: sound teacher who has done this a ton with a
• 6:53
  Speaker 5: lot of young players in Green Bay. I think about
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: the James Jones, the Render Cobbs, the Jordie Nelson's how
• 6:59
  Speaker 5: he took those guys from step one and helped all
• 7:03
  Speaker 5: of those guys become Pro Bowl players. With Travis Hunter,
• 7:06
  Speaker 5: this would be I would say, the best athlete that
• 7:08
  Speaker 5: he's ever worked with to teach how to play the
• 7:11
  Speaker 5: position at a high level. And just looking at the clips,
• 7:14
  Speaker 5: you can see how the refinement is going to help
• 7:16
  Speaker 5: his game go to another level. The other thing, when
• 7:19
  Speaker 5: you talk about him playing two positions, to have someone
• 7:23
  Speaker 5: play two positions at the pros, people always talk about
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: why it's never been done. And it's not only the
• 7:28
  Speaker 5: physical part that's taxing, it's mentally the drain that can
• 7:33
  Speaker 5: happen in trying to study and prepare for two positions.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: And to do.
• 7:36
  Speaker 5: That, a player really has to be all in and
• 7:39
  Speaker 5: really immersed in football. Can't have really what I call
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: outside distractions, can't be pulled in a many different directions
• 7:47
  Speaker 5: because it's too hard to have other things going on
• 7:50
  Speaker 5: while locking into football. The thing that we've known that
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: we've learned about Travis Hunter in this process is not
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: only a great academic scholar, a great athlete but look, man,
• 8:00
  Speaker 5: he loves ball and he doesn't have many hobbies outside
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: of that night people talking him dancing on social media
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: and fishing and those things.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: But he's a football player all day.
• 8:09
  Speaker 5: Every day, and it takes that level of commitment to
• 8:12
  Speaker 5: be able to pull it off.
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: Very confident he's going to do it.
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: But I think the reason why the Jaggers are confident
• 8:18
  Speaker 5: has less to do with the player and more to
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: do with the person, which is why I'm hoping that
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: he's gonna be able to do it at a high level.
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: I gotta tell you, John, I mean you talked about
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: extra studying at Florida. All the extra study you did
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: was with the Purple Porpoise, probably right. Don't tell me.
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: Prpose that much because I was a very young college student,
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: so my fake ID was not on a level that
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: I would have liked. So I'm not saying I never partook.
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: I didn't partake that much at the Purple Ports.
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: Neither did I never did. The new seasons right around
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: the corner. Time to get your season ticket membership is
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: right now. Be at the bank for every touchdown, securi
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: your seat at Jaguars dot com, slash tickets or cold
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: nine oh four, six three three, two thousand to tuddle
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: up with Bucky Brooks, JP Shadwick, John Oser and you
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: guessed it, Bucky Brooks with us as well. Speaking of tickets,
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: single game tickets will be on sale very soon because
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: the schedule comes out on Wednesday night, eight o'clock Eastern.
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: One Jaguars game has been announced already. The Jaguars in
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: London Week seven, Wimbley Stadium under the Arch, so face
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: off against the Los Angeles Rams. Get your popcorn ready,
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: Gladstone Cohen Revenge Game, Bucky, sign me up.
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: Because game that's better than that, right.
• 9:37
  Speaker 5: So, there's so many storylines that will be going on,
• 9:39
  Speaker 5: like they'll talk about us for a while as being
• 9:42
  Speaker 5: Rams East given all the things and similarities in the
• 9:44
  Speaker 5: crossover that exists. But also the challenge that Liam Coleen
• 9:49
  Speaker 5: would have is, man, anytime you have an opportunity to
• 9:52
  Speaker 5: take on your mentor you can feel some kind of way,
• 9:55
  Speaker 5: they're gonna be some emotions and some feelings that kind
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: of come up when you're on the opposite sideline of
• 10:01
  Speaker 5: someone that you have a lot of respect for, which
• 10:04
  Speaker 5: Sean McVay certainly deserves that expect given the impact that
• 10:06
  Speaker 5: he's had on a bunch of the guys that are
• 10:08
  Speaker 5: now Jaguars, so this would be interesting. But look, I
• 10:11
  Speaker 5: think it's one of those games that we'll call a
• 10:14
  Speaker 5: measuring stick game. For so long, the Rams have been
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: one of those teams that we've talked about in the
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: upper eche line of the league. They're Super Bowl champion,
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: they've won, they've been able to go to the playoffs
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: the last couple of years aftery're having slow starts. So
• 10:27
  Speaker 5: there's a toughness and a resilience about this team that
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: you admire. And so as the Jaguars are taking this
• 10:33
  Speaker 5: team on in the middle of the season, it will
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: be a good test for the team to see where
• 10:38
  Speaker 5: they're at and where they want to go.
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: So I'm excited about it. Yeah.
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: I Usually usually when I write or talk about coaches
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: or players playing their former teams, I sort of I
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: feel a little fraudulent because I don't really believe that
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: it matters that much once they get on the field.
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: I think there's a little bit of emotion to it,
• 11:01
  Speaker 4: and then a lot of times we overplay it. But
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: with this one, I don't really feel that way because
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: of the clear connection that James Gladstone has with less Snead,
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: and how influential Gladstone was in how they built the Rams,
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: which I think was very influential. I think less sneed would.
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: Tell you that.
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: And I do believe that Liam Cohen was heavily influenced
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: by Sean McVay, and you know, wants to embrace those things.
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: Sometimes guys leave where they've been and don't really consider
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: themselves an ex eagle or an ex what like. I'm
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: not referenced the Doug he did, but you know what
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: I'm saying. But I do think the Jaguars have to
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: an unusual degree embraced the Hey, that's the north Star,
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: that's where, that's what we want to do. I think
• 11:56
  Speaker 4: Gladstone's well within his rights to it because he influenced
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: so much of what they do. Of course he would
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: do things the way the Rams did it because he
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: was a big reason they were doing some of the things.
• 12:06
  Speaker 4: So I think it's on that level. It will be
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: very interesting. I don't expect I don't know if the
• 12:12
  Speaker 4: Jacks win, if the Jags win the game or not,
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: but I don't necessarily expect that the Jaguars will look
• 12:20
  Speaker 4: completely like the Rams yet because they got a lot
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: of players that these guys didn't bring in. It's still transitioning.
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: But I think it's very very interesting to see how
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: this is starting to look compared to the Rams, who
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: were sort of a finished product of this process.
• 12:39
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I do think all those parallels, all those things
• 12:43
  Speaker 5: that you talk about are certainly in play. But then
• 12:47
  Speaker 5: every coach will kind of circle a handful of games
• 12:49
  Speaker 5: on the schedule where they're saying, hey, this is gonna
• 12:52
  Speaker 5: be a good test for us to see where we're at,
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: where we can improve. This team will be a mirror
• 12:57
  Speaker 5: for us to be able to figure out what decisions
• 13:00
  Speaker 5: we need to make to kind of maximize our team
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: going forward. Because of where this game sits on the schedule,
• 13:06
  Speaker 5: right in the middle, it literally is a perfect opportunity
• 13:09
  Speaker 5: to play the game and then have a chance to
• 13:13
  Speaker 5: kind of review and reflect on, Okay, here's where we are,
• 13:17
  Speaker 5: Here's where we're good at, here's where we're bad at,
• 13:19
  Speaker 5: Here's how we want to improve, and we get to
• 13:21
  Speaker 5: do it against a team that is kind of the
• 13:23
  Speaker 5: model for what the Jaguars want to be. And that's
• 13:26
  Speaker 5: not being disrespectful or saying hey, we're trying to be
• 13:30
  Speaker 5: exactly who the Rams are. We're trying to create our
• 13:32
  Speaker 5: own identity, but there's some modeals and I would say
• 13:36
  Speaker 5: cultural pieces from the Rams that we certainly want to
• 13:39
  Speaker 5: use as a framework for how we build.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: The Jags out.
• 13:42
  Speaker 5: This is a good opportunity to kind of see that,
• 13:45
  Speaker 5: to have our players see that. Not that you're gonna
• 13:48
  Speaker 5: spend all your time talking about, hey, guys, we want
• 13:51
  Speaker 5: to be like them, but there's gonna be some crossover,
• 13:54
  Speaker 5: some carryover, and there's certainly gonna be some discussions that
• 13:57
  Speaker 5: will exist when it comes to ay, this is how
• 13:59
  Speaker 5: we do it, this is how we want to do it,
• 14:01
  Speaker 5: It's how we used to do it at Rams.
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: Is what we want to do here, and those things.
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: So it will be a natural muse to utilize to
• 14:07
  Speaker 5: help the team kind of have a better picture of
• 14:09
  Speaker 5: what they want to be going forward.
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: A few other notes that we know as of right
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: now as of this taping of the schedule, the Jaguars
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: do have scheduled opponents in the AFC and the NFC
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: West this year. That means road trips to two of
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: those teams in each of the divisions. That means a
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: lot of travel in the air. That also means a
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: lot of four o'clock window games, because those home games
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: for those West Coast teams are at one o'clock Local time,
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: that means four o'clock Eastern. We'll see when in the
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: schedule they are. That's the big mystery coming up. We'll
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: get answer. Bucky brook this is right in his backyard
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: some of these, So this is perfect for Bucky.
• 14:48
  Speaker 5: I mean, I'm not mad that we have a very
• 14:50
  Speaker 5: West Coast schedule, that we have some things on this
• 14:54
  Speaker 5: side of the country.
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: It should be fun.
• 14:57
  Speaker 5: It'd be an opportunity for me maybe to take the
• 14:59
  Speaker 5: lead a little bit on some of the dinners that
• 15:03
  Speaker 5: may take place and kind of picking restaurants and doing
• 15:05
  Speaker 5: some of those things, like kind of exposing some of
• 15:07
  Speaker 5: the West Coast life. Sounds it sounds like it, I mean,
• 15:12
  Speaker 5: I mean, it just depends a lot of it depends.
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: It depends sometimes.
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: I mean, like like if I'm pulling out the flastic,
• 15:21
  Speaker 5: that might be an eat it in and out type
• 15:24
  Speaker 5: a time where I give you, like a different type
• 15:26
  Speaker 5: delicacy if someone else is doing it Dennis.
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: More of a boa, a noble a thing like that.
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: It just depends on who's paint or where we go.
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: It just depends on where we go.
• 15:38
  Speaker 5: I means for different folks, different strokes for different.
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: Folks, animal style, un bucky love that. What else? Final
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: thought here? What else do you want in a schedule? John?
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: I know your answer, and I know your cynical answer,
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: but I don't think it's as cynical as everybody might think.
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah, seventeen one o'clock home game is what you want,
• 16:05
  Speaker 4: But you know, I guess what you really wanted to
• 16:09
  Speaker 4: schedule is a late season by. I think things what
• 16:13
  Speaker 4: coaches like a late season by. I think you like
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: a couple of Thursday games if you're if you feel
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: like they're games you can get and then get the break,
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: and then beyond that. I think most coaches, I know
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: I look at it. It's not something you can control.
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: And the one thing when you're trying to analyze these
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: things when they come out, you don't really know what
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: a team is until five or six weeks in anyway,
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: So we spend so much mental equity. Oh, it's a
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: hard schedule, it's an easy schedule. Look, if you're a
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: good team and if you're gonna make the playoffs in
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: the NFL, you've got to play good and beat a
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: bunch of good teams. Don't really matter when they are
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: or where they are, and I think good teams generally
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: get to the playoffs, and there's not that many undeserving
• 17:06
  Speaker 4: Super Bowl champions, so it all comes out in the
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: Washington the end, and we pick apart these schedules. I
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: look at a schedule like this when you think your
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: team's good, a lot of schedules look very manageable. When
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: you think it stinks, every schedule looks hard. So I
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: think a lot of Jaguars fans are used to the
• 17:25
  Speaker 4: team being bad, which I think is going to be
• 17:27
  Speaker 4: this year. So I think the schedule is going to
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: look hard if you think you're a four and thirteen team,
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: because you lose a bunch. But if you're good, then
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: you go like they played Seahawks this year, right, a
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: ten and seventeen on paper that was like, oh, well
• 17:42
  Speaker 4: that's tough. Well, if the Jaguars are going to be
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: a nine to eight, ten to seven team, which I
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: think they think they're going to be, then you go
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: win some games against teams like that. In the past
• 17:51
  Speaker 4: they've lost them, so you know that's not very good analysis.
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: But that's how I feel about the schedule. And if
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: you're good, you go in the games.
• 18:03
  Speaker 5: You know, it's funny you talk, you talk to the schedule.
• 18:05
  Speaker 5: I think there are a few ways I'm gonna put on.
• 18:07
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna put on like the Scout hat first, and
• 18:10
  Speaker 5: I'll talk about like the things that you want to
• 18:12
  Speaker 5: see is.
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: Buck, where's a lot of hats?
• 18:14
  Speaker 5: You know?
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: I heard about that.
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: A lot of hats.
• 18:17
  Speaker 5: So the Scout hat will will be okay, winn of
• 18:19
  Speaker 5: the division games normally there the back half of the season, when.
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: Is the bye week? Where are the measuring stick games?
• 18:28
  Speaker 5: You would like to kind of have one of those
• 18:30
  Speaker 5: games that you view per quarter as Okay, we want
• 18:33
  Speaker 5: to track our progress each quarter of the season, let's
• 18:36
  Speaker 5: see where we're at. So that's how the evaluator and
• 18:39
  Speaker 5: me would look at the schedule, like how can we progress?
• 18:42
  Speaker 5: Is there an opportunity for us to get on a
• 18:44
  Speaker 5: run and get hot going into the postseason based on
• 18:47
  Speaker 5: the schedule, even though we don't know how the teams
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: are gonna be, But do we have an opportunity to
• 18:51
  Speaker 5: really make a run? Building momentum as you're heading into
• 18:54
  Speaker 5: the postseason the player in me. The first thing that
• 18:56
  Speaker 5: you're looking for is when is the bye week? When
• 19:00
  Speaker 5: when we split it up? When is a bye week?
• 19:02
  Speaker 5: And do we have any primetime games? Because the energy
• 19:06
  Speaker 5: is different when you play a Sunday night game, a
• 19:09
  Speaker 5: Monday night game, a Thursday game, any of those things.
• 19:12
  Speaker 5: Do we have any showcase games where if you're a
• 19:16
  Speaker 5: person selfishly who has Pro Bowl aspirations all per respirations,
• 19:21
  Speaker 5: when am I gonna have an opportunity to play on
• 19:23
  Speaker 5: a big stage where everyone can see me? Those things
• 19:26
  Speaker 5: excite me or whatever. And then finally, like the robbery
• 19:28
  Speaker 5: games and those things, they kind of pop up, But
• 19:30
  Speaker 5: it's about the bye week and primetime games.
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: When can I be showcased as a player? Those are
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: the things that I want to know.
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: I love that. That's tonight, eight o'clock Eastern. We'll find
• 19:39
