- 0:12Speaker 1: Show starts right now. Welcome into The Doug Morons Show
- 0:23Speaker 1: from the Twin Cities Orthophoenix Performance Center in Egan, Minnesota.
- 0:26Speaker 1: JP Shadrick, Jeff Lockman, and Tony Boselli sitting in. This
- 0:31Speaker 1: would be the time during the practices between the Vikings
- 0:34Speaker 1: and the Jaguars, but a weather delays forced the teams
- 0:37Speaker 1: to the indoor facility. We've moved our set indoors to
- 0:41Speaker 1: the grounds keeping shed and not really performance center. Right
- 0:46Speaker 1: now we're the cover. We've got chicken tenders in front
- 0:50Speaker 1: of us. I'm not saying it's a great set up.
- 0:52Speaker 1: Soda in my pocket here, fantastic. I mean, and this
- 0:55Speaker 1: is uh, by the way, this is a just awesome building.
- 0:59Speaker 1: I love still build in construction. Yeah, it's great. Tell
- 1:02Speaker 1: us more, it's awesome. What's so great about this builing? No, no,
- 1:07Speaker 1: don't don't, but but like what is the part of
- 1:11Speaker 1: the construction. Look at the fan. There's a fan, Joe,
- 1:15Speaker 1: don't Okay, there's to roll up doors on this side.
- 1:21Speaker 1: On the other side you have work benches. I mean,
- 1:24Speaker 1: this is this is like the ultimate man cave right here.
- 1:27Speaker 1: Like what would you like an owl hanging from the lights?
- 1:30Speaker 1: Like if you had this in your possession, what would
- 1:35Speaker 1: you do with it? I'd have it. I'd have tractors
- 1:37Speaker 1: right in here, Okay, I'd have agricultural equipment in this
- 1:41Speaker 1: way over. Can you explain the difference a tractor and
- 1:43Speaker 1: agricultural equipment, Well, I don't know the difference. Like the
- 1:47Speaker 1: same thing. We're asking them questions. What do we do
- 1:49Speaker 1: machines in this alley? So tractor and then when I
- 1:52Speaker 1: say agricultural equipment, I'm talking the attachment. The attachment to
- 1:55Speaker 1: the track would be in the next day. And then
- 1:58Speaker 1: I would have in my wood shop over there, okay,
- 2:00Speaker 1: and then over there where those work benches are at.
- 2:03Speaker 1: That's like you have a drainage system, so you just
- 2:09Speaker 1: hose off the equipment or no, no, no, no, no, no,
- 2:12Speaker 1: you do that outside. Okay, Yeah, that's what outside is
- 2:14Speaker 1: for you. But this is this is a great set
- 2:17Speaker 1: upright so they've got a nice facility right here. Unfortunately,
- 2:19Speaker 1: the part is I didn't even notice that the American flag.
- 2:24Speaker 1: We got the American flag and didn't notice it. How
- 2:26Speaker 1: why would you make that accusation because we didn't talk
- 2:30Speaker 1: about the turn, and we're like, oh, what are you
- 2:31Speaker 1: talking about that? I did not do that. It's caught
- 2:35Speaker 1: on camera. Bo. Practice is on hold for now. The
- 2:38Speaker 1: teams are indoors. The last we heard, they still planned
- 2:41Speaker 1: to come out and finish the practice at some point,
- 2:43Speaker 1: but they're gonna have to warm up again the whole thing.
- 2:47Speaker 1: I'm not sure I can stay the whole time. What
- 2:49Speaker 1: do you have to do tonight, Tony, you know, asked
- 2:51Speaker 1: my wife. My wife flew in tonight. We're here to work, Tony.
- 2:56Speaker 1: We're here to watch practice and and see this team
- 2:58Speaker 1: get better again. By the way they are practicing inside,
- 3:01Speaker 1: they started inside, okay, that was They've changed the plan then,
- 3:04Speaker 1: so they are indoors, continuing the practice as we speak. So, um,
- 3:09Speaker 1: yesterday's work, you know, good work against another good football team.
- 3:12Speaker 1: Both these teams went the same distance last year's at
- 3:15Speaker 1: the championship game in their respective conference. A couple of
- 3:18Speaker 1: new faces in Minnesota, including the eighty million dollar quarterback.
- 3:22Speaker 1: As you would expect, though, these two defenses are really
- 3:25Speaker 1: the star attraction. I think of these teams right now. Um,
- 3:28Speaker 1: if not the top two, they're they're pretty done close
- 3:30Speaker 1: to the top of the league. We we know what
- 3:32Speaker 1: the Jaguars defense has and UH. And have interesting conversation
- 3:36Speaker 1: today talking with Nathaniel Hackett, and I was asking, you know,
- 3:39Speaker 1: what did you see far as the Vikings defense? What
- 3:42Speaker 1: impressed you and uh, And he was very impressed with
- 3:46Speaker 1: a couple of the guys in the in the back end.
- 3:48Speaker 1: He Harrison Smith. He said, off the charts good, obviously.
- 3:52Speaker 1: Xavier Rhodes off the charts good. He's an all pro corner.
- 3:56Speaker 1: He's got size, He's got everything. He's a big he's
- 4:00Speaker 1: a big safety. He really does. I mean he you know,
- 4:03Speaker 1: you know, talk about Dave carl while he talks about
- 4:06Speaker 1: he likes, you know, the measurables on corners, you know,
- 4:08Speaker 1: a height, weight type of thing. I mean, Xavier Rhodes
- 4:10Speaker 1: has got it physical makeup. Like we talked about how
- 4:14Speaker 1: big Jaalen is and how long Jaalen is, which he
- 4:17Speaker 1: is extremely big and long for and and has those
- 4:21Speaker 1: attributes as a corner. Xavier Rhodes is thicker. I mean,
- 4:25Speaker 1: he is a thick dude. He literally, you're right. He
- 4:28Speaker 1: looks like a safety, you know. And then Andrews and Dajo,
- 4:31Speaker 1: who is the uh free safety is uh is a
- 4:36Speaker 1: fantasy excuse me? He might be strong safety on the list.
- 4:38Speaker 1: He's strong safety. He is fantastic as well. And we're
- 4:42Speaker 1: not even talking about the linebackers. I mean Kendricks, you know,
- 4:46Speaker 1: was another guy that he mentioned. And the Kendricks brothers, okay,
- 4:50Speaker 1: are extremely fast linebackers. He would be a perfect fit for,
- 4:55Speaker 1: you know, the Jaguars type of system because he's got
- 4:57Speaker 1: the speed to burn. Anthony Barr as outside linebacker, is
- 5:02Speaker 1: a big cat, looks like a defensive end. Daniel Hunter
- 5:06Speaker 1: on one side, Everson Griffin on the other side. I mean,
- 5:09Speaker 1: these are these are for real now, I mean for real, legitimate,
- 5:14Speaker 1: top end players and uh. And it's a great test.
- 5:17Speaker 1: And even though the reports are true that the Jaguars
- 5:21Speaker 1: struggled against this Minnesota Vikings defense yesterday, that's a great
- 5:26Speaker 1: thing to have an opportunity to play against one of
- 5:29Speaker 1: the best defenses in the league and to get better,
- 5:33Speaker 1: you know. And you're not gonna come out here and
- 5:35Speaker 1: light them up. They're they're too good. You know so, uh,
- 5:39Speaker 1: great experience, great exposure, and uh, I think I think
- 5:44Speaker 1: I give Dug Moro own credit because you know what,
- 5:47Speaker 1: Uh A lot of teams might not have wanted to
- 5:49Speaker 1: do something like this. And you know what, by taking
- 5:50Speaker 1: this opportunity, I think you you gain things that you
- 5:53Speaker 1: just are invaluable. Why wouldn't other teams like to do this?
- 5:55Speaker 1: Yet some teams just don't like to do it. I mean,
- 5:57Speaker 1: just like early on and Dave called well Gus Bradley Aire,
- 6:01Speaker 1: they just they felt like that that's not something that
- 6:03Speaker 1: they wanted to do. And uh, different team makeup than
- 6:07Speaker 1: two now, by the way, personnel is much different. But
- 6:10Speaker 1: here here's the thing. I believe that you always benefit.
- 6:14Speaker 1: I don't care where your team is at, you always
- 6:17Speaker 1: benefit from doing something like this. And and here's the
- 6:21Speaker 1: other reason why it's a player. First of all, you
- 6:23Speaker 1: love it because it just changes the tempo, it changes
- 6:26Speaker 1: the scenery, it changes your day, it breaks the monotony.
- 6:30Speaker 1: But then the experience in the exposure to different players,
- 6:33Speaker 1: different body types, different schemes are invaluable. And uh so
- 6:38Speaker 1: I think I think anybody that that just wants to
- 6:41Speaker 1: stay in their own little cocoon and not venture out.
- 6:44Speaker 1: I think there's a mistake. Guys. The specialists are starting
- 6:47Speaker 1: to come back out about that. So if you you
- 6:51Speaker 1: the players are heading out, Yeah, there's Carson Tinker and
- 6:55Speaker 1: Josh Lambeau and the and the and the punter Cook
- 6:58Speaker 1: as well has made his way out. So there you
- 7:01Speaker 1: have it. They're apparently the bad stuff is uh not
- 7:05Speaker 1: that far or has moved away enough for some players
- 7:08Speaker 1: to come back out. Joe Fortunito, here's a question for you.
- 7:10Speaker 1: I know that they're very strict with how long guys
- 7:12Speaker 1: can practice now, so that they practice inside coming out.
- 7:16Speaker 1: They can't. They're they're still constricted to time. You're still
- 7:19Speaker 1: on the clock. You're on the clock from the time.
- 7:22Speaker 1: You gotta remember something, you know, the Jaguars, you're you're
- 7:26Speaker 1: allotted like two and a half almost three hours, two
- 7:29Speaker 1: and a half two and two hours and forty five
- 7:31Speaker 1: minutes for practice. Yesterday's practice was two hours tops. That
- 7:35Speaker 1: was it. So even with a delay, you know, you're
- 7:38Speaker 1: you're you still got forty five minutes that you really
- 7:41Speaker 1: don't need for the a lot of time, so you
- 7:43Speaker 1: should be okays be able to get in. You can
- 7:45Speaker 1: roll over time then yeah, I don't. I don't know.
- 7:48Speaker 1: You don't get a row. It's not that. Hey we've
- 7:51Speaker 1: booked three hours. We'll be on the field five hours today. Well,
- 7:56Speaker 1: well we got machine. It's the compressor. Yeah, we're in
- 8:00Speaker 1: the grounds keeping a grige. Good question here at the
- 8:02Speaker 1: TCO Performance Center and Egan Minnesto. Really nice compressor, by
- 8:07Speaker 1: the way, it's great. What makes it? What makes it?
- 8:10Speaker 1: A good consise of it? Size? The size of it.
- 8:14Speaker 1: You think that it's not watch it's no, it's not.
- 8:18Speaker 1: It doesn't matter either because they all have pretty much
- 8:20Speaker 1: damn thing. It's amotter. It's gallants. The amount of gallons
- 8:24Speaker 1: gallant what I thought, I thought, a bigger the better
- 8:29Speaker 1: it is, I thought the good I thought you measured
- 8:31Speaker 1: air pressure from p size matters. I thought it was
- 8:35Speaker 1: when it come to compressors, I think we have officially
- 8:38Speaker 1: lost control and we're just underway. When we return, we'll
- 8:42Speaker 1: discuss the Jags offense a bit more. The first this
- 8:48Speaker 1: is the Duck mor Own Show on the Jaguars Radio Network.

- 11:15Speaker 1: continues from Egan, Minnesota, the Twin City told the Phoenix
- 11:19Speaker 1: Performance Center, the practice home of the Minnesota Vikings. Where
- 11:22Speaker 1: we are today, Egan, Minnesota, j P. Shadrick, Jeff Lagman,
- 11:26Speaker 1: Tony Basselly sitting in the head coaches having practice right
- 11:30Speaker 1: now with the Minnesota to be called coach base for
- 11:33Speaker 1: this UH you're not even coaching anymore. No, but it
- 11:35Speaker 1: doesn't matter. I'm filling in on the coaches show for coach.
- 11:37Speaker 1: Don't so well, then I'm gonna leave. Well, you're leaving
- 11:41Speaker 1: the chicken tenders. That's fine. It's your choice. You either
- 11:44Speaker 1: call me coach right, get up and leave? All right, Tony? Yeah,
- 11:48Speaker 1: easy there. Boeh, he's out of here. Good. This show
- 11:55Speaker 1: just got better. Actually, this show just got much better.
- 11:59Speaker 1: Oh you were leaving. No, you're coming back now, Tony
- 12:01Speaker 1: was it was coming back? He got guilted into it. Uh,
- 12:04Speaker 1: this Jaguars, he just didn't get enough chicken. I just looked.
- 12:09Speaker 1: I noticed that and started practice. So we we've touched
- 12:14Speaker 1: on Blake Bortle's performance. You know, let's let's let's shift
- 12:19Speaker 1: it though to the running game. Hell, you can't really
- 12:21Speaker 1: tell a lot, as Doug Morris said today, from the
- 12:23Speaker 1: running backs in a practice situation, because there's no tackling
- 12:27Speaker 1: to the ground. You can tell about your run game
- 12:29Speaker 1: the blocking up front, but the tackling can tell about
- 12:32Speaker 1: the cut the cuts they make in their vision. You
- 12:34Speaker 1: can't how they're gonna finish it, absolutely, but you can
- 12:37Speaker 1: see the initial moves and the vision and the uh,
- 12:43Speaker 1: the explosive this out of cuts and you know, are
- 12:45Speaker 1: they getting are they getting downhill? I mean, you can
- 12:48Speaker 1: see that type of stuff, JP. But overall you're right.
- 12:51Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, look at last year. Some of
- 12:54Speaker 1: the stuff earlier that Leonard did so well was running
- 12:57Speaker 1: through tackles. Well, he's not running through tackles right now
- 13:00Speaker 1: out No, it is, so that part of it, I
- 13:02Speaker 1: do agree with you. But you can I think you
- 13:03Speaker 1: can see quite a bit. I mean, I mean, as
- 13:06Speaker 1: a player, I know this. We did nine on seven,
- 13:09Speaker 1: which is inside drill, twice a day during training camp
- 13:12Speaker 1: and then twice a week during the regular season, and
- 13:15Speaker 1: at the end of that period, you knew whether the
- 13:17Speaker 1: offense or defense won the drill and whether whether it
- 13:21Speaker 1: was whether it was a good run or not. But
- 13:23Speaker 1: let me let me say this about the running back.
- 13:25Speaker 1: Sometimes it's hard to tell about a running back, you know,
- 13:27Speaker 1: whether whether he's is gonna be a good running back
- 13:30Speaker 1: or not in a practice like this, because you know
- 13:32Speaker 1: what Tony for. I mean, for the last couple of
- 13:35Speaker 1: weeks of training camp, we've watched Tim Cook and go, Okay,
- 13:39Speaker 1: it's a pretty big guy and uh, he might might
- 13:42Speaker 1: be able to be the guy if something were to
- 13:44Speaker 1: happen to one of the two backs t J Yeldon
- 13:47Speaker 1: or or you know obviously four now and then you
- 13:51Speaker 1: watched him in the preseason game and you went, Jeff,
- 13:53Speaker 1: how many reps did he get in enough to make
- 13:56Speaker 1: me go? You know what? That wasn't very good? Yeah,
- 13:58Speaker 1: but barely enough, saying I'm just saying it wasn't enough
- 14:02Speaker 1: to make you get excited about anything. So so it's
- 14:04Speaker 1: hard to valuate it. But the one thing I think
- 14:06Speaker 1: you can evaluate is some of the speed and quickness
- 14:09Speaker 1: that some of the backs have. And watching the Vikings, Uh,
- 14:12Speaker 1: they obviously have a really good running back who's coming
- 14:15Speaker 1: back from an injury and it's gonna be fun to
- 14:17Speaker 1: watch him in a game if he does play. And
- 14:20Speaker 1: that's Dalvin Cook from Florida State, who was their first
- 14:22Speaker 1: round pick last year, who towards a c L and
- 14:26Speaker 1: from watching him out here, he's he's good to go.
- 14:30Speaker 1: I mean, he looks good to go. Uh, they've got
- 14:32Speaker 1: a big I loved him coming. You and I you
- 14:36Speaker 1: and I you weren't a big fan his I just
- 14:38Speaker 1: like I liked his speed, but I just liked four
- 14:41Speaker 1: net better. I didn't dislike him, just like I thought
- 14:45Speaker 1: he was. See a generational back like for Nett's gonna
- 14:48Speaker 1: be lush. Maybe he was, you know what. I don't know,
- 14:51Speaker 1: but I didn't think so when I saw him. But
- 14:54Speaker 1: Lottavius Murray is also here in the Vikings uniform. And
- 14:58Speaker 1: as we know, in a preseason game, a lot of
- 15:00Speaker 1: times it's the backups, you know that getting out more
- 15:03Speaker 1: opportunity than anybody else. Keep an eye on this young
- 15:06Speaker 1: kid that the Vikings have. Boone. Okay, Mike Boone. He's
- 15:10Speaker 1: a rookie, Mike Boone from University of Cincinnati, universitys Cincinnati.
- 15:15Speaker 1: Where's forty four? Sucker? He is quick, now, I mean
- 15:20Speaker 1: he is quick. Yeah, he's a smaller, kind of shiftier guy.
- 15:24Speaker 1: He's got some change of direction. In fact, because I
- 15:27Speaker 1: think I told that to you yesterday. I said, man,
- 15:29Speaker 1: watch that number forty four. He's got some movement. And
- 15:33Speaker 1: then wake up today, you know, get the newspaper, pull
- 15:36Speaker 1: it up. And Mike Zimmer was asked about the running
- 15:39Speaker 1: back situation and he actually mentioned Boone by name. He said,
- 15:42Speaker 1: you know, watch out for this Boon guy, you know so,
- 15:45Speaker 1: And I was like, hey, man, I guess I know
- 15:46Speaker 1: what I'm talking about. Sometimes you know how to pick
- 15:51Speaker 1: you know how to pick him. I'm not saying he's
- 15:52Speaker 1: gonna be generational back or anything. Do you like those
- 15:55Speaker 1: generational backs? The both teams are back out on the field,
- 15:59Speaker 1: by the way, right now and are doing some work.
- 16:02Speaker 1: Media is coming out to media's coming out, and yeah,
- 16:05Speaker 1: so that's good news. The practice continues on the fields.
- 16:08Speaker 1: Behind us here in Egan, Minnesota, is the Vikings and
- 16:12Speaker 1: the Jaguars work out. Uh No, teams versus team work
- 16:16Speaker 1: tomorrow and then they'll play of course Saturday one o'clock
- 16:18Speaker 1: in downtown Minneapolis and the central one o'clock Eastern. Yes.
- 16:25Speaker 1: The the interesting thing is, you know we talk about tomorrow,
- 16:29Speaker 1: there's no work with the Vikings, right you just said that.
- 16:32Speaker 1: That's that's what I heard. Okay. You remember last year
- 16:36Speaker 1: with the Patriots, they actually practiced with the Patriots, had
- 16:42Speaker 1: a jog through day before practice with the Patriots, which
- 16:44Speaker 1: I thought was like, really odd. I thought it was
- 16:48Speaker 1: I would want to do it on the show. I
- 16:51Speaker 1: thought it was dumb. I wouldn't want to do it.
- 16:53Speaker 1: What are you accomplishing well as a player? I wouldn't
- 16:55Speaker 1: want to do it because you know, when I'm getting
- 16:56Speaker 1: ready to bash this guy's head in tomorrow. That's not
- 16:59Speaker 1: why I just see it. I saw no. I saw
- 17:01Speaker 1: no point to it. I mean maybe there is, maybe
- 17:04Speaker 1: there's a point. I don't want to get all warm
- 17:06Speaker 1: and fuzzy, okay and start talking to Joe who who tomorrow? Okay,
- 17:10Speaker 1: I'm gonna line up and crackheads with Joe. Okay. I
- 17:13Speaker 1: gotta build up a little anger, and I don't want
- 17:15Speaker 1: to be you know all. You know, hey man, how
- 17:17Speaker 1: you you're so full of it? It's the pre It
- 17:20Speaker 1: was week one of the preseason. You built up zero
- 17:23Speaker 1: anger for the first preseason game. I was like you
- 17:27Speaker 1: talking about me throwing a bunch of crap out there.
- 17:31Speaker 1: That was dumb. I'm serious, That's why it is. Yet
- 17:33Speaker 1: you know you're counting the plays to get out of
- 17:35Speaker 1: there like I was coming. Let me tell you what.
- 17:38Speaker 1: He wasn't making plays count. He was counting place I used.
- 17:41Speaker 1: I used to go up to John P's r D
- 17:43Speaker 1: line coach and by the way, yeahn walking behind he
- 17:48Speaker 1: hit the bathroom the John P's okay, who was our
- 17:53Speaker 1: defensive line coach. I got to John after every serieson
- 17:56Speaker 1: go hey, John, that was seven plays? Am I done?
- 18:00Speaker 1: And I do it on purpose just to mess with him,
- 18:02Speaker 1: because you know he was obviously he they had an
- 18:05Speaker 1: idea of how many snaps. All coaches do have an
- 18:08Speaker 1: idea of how many snaps that everybody's gonna go in
- 18:11Speaker 1: a rotation, whether it be the first team offense or
- 18:13Speaker 1: first team defense or whatever. But I would go up
- 18:16Speaker 1: to him just to mess with him because Coauflin used
- 18:18Speaker 1: to have this message. That's just kind of the same
- 18:21Speaker 1: thing with Doud Maron. I don't want my players counting plays.
- 18:24Speaker 1: I want to worry about playing. Make the plays count.
- 18:26Speaker 1: Don't count plays, make the plays count. So I'd come
- 18:29Speaker 1: off the sideline and go to John pas. John that
- 18:32Speaker 1: series was was five plays, and with the previous series
- 18:36Speaker 1: that was seven, so I got twelve. Am I done yet? Sorry?
- 18:40Speaker 1: I saw. I actually saw a coach Coffin before, and
- 18:43Speaker 1: I was giving walked up him David car When they're talking.
- 18:47Speaker 1: He asked me someone I can't remember what he asked me,
- 18:49Speaker 1: and I say, coach, where's the concentration line? We were
- 18:53Speaker 1: crossing the concentration line today. He looked at me and
- 18:57Speaker 1: Dave coble. Was it really a line? I said, you
- 19:00Speaker 1: going right? And he starts smiling, and I said, I
- 19:05Speaker 1: can't believe you brought you brought it up. I say, Dave,
- 19:08Speaker 1: across that concentration line. You don't start counting plays. You
- 19:12Speaker 1: make plays count Tom. He started laughing. He just shook
- 19:16Speaker 1: his head and walked away. I said, hey, listen, you
- 19:20Speaker 1: ingrained that into us. And that was, you know, you
- 19:23Speaker 1: had to be past the concentration line a certain time,
- 19:27Speaker 1: a certain time, which was five minutes early of every
- 19:31Speaker 1: announced time in order to not be late. And I
- 19:34Speaker 1: remember I was literally instride going over tops, you know,
- 19:40Speaker 1: going to practice, and I thought I was okay, and
- 19:44Speaker 1: I was literally across the concentration line, instride, running because
- 19:49Speaker 1: I thought it might be late. And I did get
- 19:51Speaker 1: fined how much whatever the maximum could do? You know,
- 19:56Speaker 1: it was like a hundred fifty bucks or whatever I was,
- 19:58Speaker 1: you know, maybe two hundred buck, I don't know, but
- 20:00Speaker 1: it was great. And I call it, I asked him.
- 20:02Speaker 1: I said, man, I said, I was across the concentration line.
- 20:06Speaker 1: He said, you weren't quiet across, and he goes, and
- 20:08Speaker 1: you weren't in line for the stride and stretched like
- 20:10Speaker 1: you should have been. That's all right, you got me.

- 23:11Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you. So we're in the groundskeeping garage.
- 23:16Speaker 1: You we got moved in because of the inclement weather.
- 23:18Speaker 1: The players got moved inside, and you were were you
- 23:20Speaker 1: inside with the teams that's in there? What they do?
- 23:24Speaker 1: They did? Uh? Some team drills, some quick interchangeable team drills.
- 23:29Speaker 1: Offense defense, offense defense, a few few different sets. Yeah,
- 23:34Speaker 1: it was fun, It was good. Yeah, I'd like the
- 23:37Speaker 1: by the way, Oh man, it's amazing. I can guarantee
- 23:41Speaker 1: no matter how many times the punter try, he won't
- 23:43Speaker 1: touch there. It is so nice in there, A little
- 23:48Speaker 1: hotter in there, a little warmer in there than it
- 23:50Speaker 1: is out here. Yeah. Well, I mean usually doesn't get
- 23:54Speaker 1: ninety degrees in Minnesota, but it is there like nine agrees.
- 24:00Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure that's what brought the weather. And but uh,
- 24:03Speaker 1: the offense looked pretty sharp. Offense looked better, took some
- 24:06Speaker 1: shots in there. Uh so did Minnesota's offense. Defended pretty well.
- 24:11Speaker 1: So it looked good on both both sides from both sides.
- 24:14Speaker 1: Got some working indoors. Now the teams are back outside
- 24:17Speaker 1: for the final or stretch of practice. Here. You got in,
- 24:20Speaker 1: you got in last night. Um, let's I mean, let's
- 24:23Speaker 1: start off with with last week. I don't think we've
- 24:25Speaker 1: we've had you on radio before on the postgame show,
- 24:28Speaker 1: but for this audience, it was your debut as the
- 24:31Speaker 1: analyst on television last week. And now you got your
- 24:34Speaker 1: second shot coming up this Saturday at one o'clock Eastern
- 24:37Speaker 1: time against the Vikings. How did it go last week? Friend?
- 24:40Speaker 1: Last week was fun? You know, it was pretty fun. Uh,
- 24:43Speaker 1: you know, I still in preparation, you know, all week,
- 24:47Speaker 1: Dan Edwards he was Dan was saying, hey, you gotta
- 24:49Speaker 1: reach out and logman. Jeff's great at you gotta reach
- 24:51Speaker 1: out logment and here I have my phone and the
- 24:55Speaker 1: reminders every single day set to call, and I didn't call.
- 25:02Speaker 1: He didn't call me. I didn't call. What I did
- 25:06Speaker 1: start the Uh, the conversation wasn't today We're gonna have
- 25:11Speaker 1: an so but you know, it was my first shot,
- 25:15Speaker 1: first chance. I ever never thought I would be doing it. Um.
- 25:19Speaker 1: I don't know if I want to hurry and run
- 25:21Speaker 1: back until doing games the game day live or I'll
- 25:24Speaker 1: be nervous the next three pre season. But it was fun,
- 25:27Speaker 1: it was different, It was fun, um and it's just
- 25:30Speaker 1: having a conversation much like this, but working out the
- 25:34Speaker 1: technical side of it all and uh being able to
- 25:37Speaker 1: you know, win to jump in from the play by
- 25:40Speaker 1: play guy, you know, being descriptive as descriptive as I
- 25:44Speaker 1: can for the viewer, and then just getting out of
- 25:46Speaker 1: it and getting ready for the next play. Yeah. I
- 25:48Speaker 1: think first of all, you're you're working with Brian Shaxson,
- 25:50Speaker 1: who was a true pro, you know, and he did
- 25:52Speaker 1: I've worked with Brian doing it as well and for
- 25:55Speaker 1: many years in the radio broadcasting. Uh. He does a
- 25:58Speaker 1: great job. So you're working with a pro, and you
- 26:00Speaker 1: guys will end up hitting the ground running this week
- 26:02Speaker 1: and be even better than last week. I think I
- 26:05Speaker 1: think the one thing I think that just a we're
- 26:07Speaker 1: talking broadcasting here, we'll get to the football stuff coming up,
- 26:10Speaker 1: because I mean, this is all relates. I think the
- 26:12Speaker 1: one thing with television that I think is different than
- 26:15Speaker 1: radio is that with radio, you're trying to tell people
- 26:18Speaker 1: what happened. You're trying to describe paint the picture. With television,
- 26:23Speaker 1: it's painted. You know, they see it, they watch it.
- 26:26Speaker 1: So as a as an analyst on television, and I
- 26:29Speaker 1: kind of had to make this change, was that when
- 26:31Speaker 1: you go from television, which they know what happened, you're
- 26:33Speaker 1: not talking about what happened. You have to give them
- 26:36Speaker 1: something that they didn't know. Get Why Why did was
- 26:41Speaker 1: this a ten yard run by four net? Why did
- 26:44Speaker 1: this play work? And I think that's the key with television,
- 26:47Speaker 1: whereas radio you can explain why after you your play
- 26:51Speaker 1: by play guy paints the picture, and then as an
- 26:53Speaker 1: analyst you further paint the picture and then explain why
- 26:57Speaker 1: if you have to. But it's it's a great chat.
- 27:00Speaker 1: Jim and I've been a big fan of Freds for
- 27:02Speaker 1: for a long time, and uh, and I'm glad to
- 27:05Speaker 1: see that you're in the booth. I appreciated Jeff, uh
- 27:08Speaker 1: and I can attest and confirm that he has been
- 27:10Speaker 1: a big fan of mine since they won. I believe
- 27:13Speaker 1: when I came in, ye uh, when I came in, McManus,
- 27:19Speaker 1: oh t mac end up shoving me. Him and Boyer
- 27:21Speaker 1: they were always clowns and just just get under your skin.
- 27:25Speaker 1: And they took advantage of a lot of rookies. And
- 27:28Speaker 1: Jeff was one of the guys that came in us.
- 27:30Speaker 1: They don't worry about those guys, you know, they're just guys.
- 27:33Speaker 1: Try to try to help raise him a little bit.
- 27:35Speaker 1: It's the truth. It's the truth. And I share that story,
- 27:38Speaker 1: you know, hearing there are people at home ask me
- 27:40Speaker 1: if I had ever been hazed and all that stuff.
- 27:42Speaker 1: But not to get too far off topic. Uh, I'll
- 27:46Speaker 1: get used to it. I warm up to it. I'm
- 27:48Speaker 1: pretty sure I'll do better. I've got a lot of
- 27:50Speaker 1: feedback from fans, family, from you know, the front office. Um,

- 30:35Speaker 1: ORTHOPEDICX Performance center, j P Shadrick, Jeff Logaman, Fred Taylor
- 30:39Speaker 1: were in the grounds keeping garage. We had to move
- 30:42Speaker 1: indoors because of the storms earlier. They've now passed. Players
- 30:46Speaker 1: are back out of the practice fields behind us here.
- 30:49Speaker 1: Let's talk running backs here, Fred, I mean, we know
- 30:52Speaker 1: about the Jaguars situation, but you look on the other
- 30:55Speaker 1: side and they've got talented over there. To Dalvin Cook's
- 30:57Speaker 1: coming off a knee injury last year. Uh know, Leonard
- 31:00Speaker 1: for that. The story is he's lighter and and seems
- 31:03Speaker 1: a little more I don't know, spry, I guess is
- 31:06Speaker 1: the word. It's camp. I get it so far what
- 31:09Speaker 1: you've seen today here. I mean, this is a pretty
- 31:12Speaker 1: good collection of running back talent around here. A lot
- 31:14Speaker 1: of talent right there. That Tavis Murray. I met him
- 31:16Speaker 1: in the building. I actually spoke with them, with the
- 31:19Speaker 1: Vikings guy. With the Viking guys. I ended up visiting
- 31:23Speaker 1: with my former coach, my former positions coach, coach, Kennedy Polo.
- 31:28Speaker 1: He's now Kennedy Paula Mallo. Now you know, I knew
- 31:33Speaker 1: it was some change. I didn't even know when, but
- 31:37Speaker 1: I knew he was gonna I know Troy Paul his nephew,
- 31:42Speaker 1: and that's right, correct, So all of that, you know,
- 31:45Speaker 1: it's training camp. It's pretty pretty wild. I mean I
- 31:48Speaker 1: didn't notice that until getting here, you know, and you know,
- 31:51Speaker 1: getting the game boards ready and stuff. But Kennedy Polo
- 31:54Speaker 1: was your running back to him. He was Kennedy Polo
- 31:56Speaker 1: with the Jaguar and I guess years ago for summer
- 32:00Speaker 1: him somebody in his family or he shortened the name
- 32:02Speaker 1: of the Polo to make it simple. Correct, Well, he's
- 32:04Speaker 1: his real name is Paulo Malo. Soon he went back
- 32:06Speaker 1: to his full name, so now he's Kennedy Paolo Malo Pomalo.
- 32:10Speaker 1: So yeah, he invited coach Polomalo everybody. So yeah, he
- 32:17Speaker 1: invited me over to meet with those guys, and I
- 32:19Speaker 1: was able to share a message with him. Uh that
- 32:21Speaker 1: Tavis Murray didn't realize he was that big, big pushing
- 32:26Speaker 1: six three, nice frame on him. I can see where
- 32:28Speaker 1: his power comes from. Devin Cook a little bit more
- 32:31Speaker 1: squatty exactly, but he's big here, you know, but the waist,
- 32:38Speaker 1: the waist down. From the waist down, he's not big.
- 32:41Speaker 1: From the waist up, he's he's huge and you can
- 32:44Speaker 1: see where his power comes from as well. He's very
- 32:46Speaker 1: shifty and his ability. But you mentioned Leonard for Nett
- 32:50Speaker 1: being no excited, you know, and it could be training
- 32:53Speaker 1: camp or whatever it may be. I remember, uh leaving
- 32:56Speaker 1: the New England game after the NFC Championship game and
- 33:00Speaker 1: having a conversation with him after looking over and seeing
- 33:03Speaker 1: him on the bench, you know, uh, with his head
- 33:06Speaker 1: down just feeling awful. Say, look, year two, you will
- 33:11Speaker 1: be so excited. You have so much more fun than
- 33:13Speaker 1: you had in the year one. The awareness, uh, your
- 33:17Speaker 1: sense of what you could do, in the freedom that
- 33:20Speaker 1: you will feel you have, it will be increased, you know,
- 33:23Speaker 1: by ten and you're gonna have a even better season
- 33:28Speaker 1: than you had this year. So he's excited about that.
- 33:31Speaker 1: I'm definitely looking forward to to kind of go along
- 33:34Speaker 1: with I go what you're saying there, Fred, because you know,
- 33:37Speaker 1: watching him last year and I watched his college tape
- 33:40Speaker 1: obviously before the draft and then after the draft, I
- 33:43Speaker 1: saw a really special back, a guy that I thought
- 33:45Speaker 1: could be a generational back. And then last year during
- 33:48Speaker 1: the course of the season I saw I didn't see that.
- 33:51Speaker 1: I didn't I didn't see that specialness. I saw a
- 33:54Speaker 1: really good solid back And at what point for a
- 33:59Speaker 1: running back, because I think like with the defensive line,
- 34:01Speaker 1: and I think back, it took me to like year
- 34:03Speaker 1: three to kind of star finally figure it out for
- 34:06Speaker 1: running back. When did you finally feel free? Was it
- 34:09Speaker 1: year two or was it at some point in year
- 34:12Speaker 1: two or year three to where you felt like, Okay,
- 34:16Speaker 1: I'm not thinking I'm just being a runner, you know.
- 34:19Speaker 1: I think for me, Jeff, it was, you know, a
- 34:22Speaker 1: year two, early in the preseason. I believe it was
- 34:26Speaker 1: the I want to say it was the New York Giants,
- 34:29Speaker 1: maybe down in Jacksonville, whomever. The first preseason team was
- 34:34Speaker 1: at home that year. Um I remember, I think it
- 34:38Speaker 1: was like the second player of the game, I gotta
- 34:40Speaker 1: carry touchdown. And then we came back and did the
- 34:45Speaker 1: same thing a few plays later. I was like, wow,
- 34:47Speaker 1: this is easy. You know, it was a preseason, but again,
- 34:50Speaker 1: it was how easy it was, how the confidence level
- 34:53Speaker 1: was extremely high and everything that's everyone else felt like
- 34:57Speaker 1: they're running in slow motion. This is gonna be one
- 35:00Speaker 1: There's gonna be a lot of fun for me. And
- 35:04Speaker 1: throughout the course of the season, I just felt free
- 35:06Speaker 1: to do what I was gonna do. Coach Ingram. You know,
- 35:10Speaker 1: he trusted what I was capable of. You know, he
- 35:12Speaker 1: didn't have to call me in here and say, hey,
- 35:14Speaker 1: you missed this cut. You missed this cut, because he
- 35:16Speaker 1: knew at some point I was gonna make the cut
- 35:18Speaker 1: and I was gonna make something out of nothing, you know,
- 35:21Speaker 1: more more times than none. So for me, it just
- 35:24Speaker 1: gave me that the freedom and leeway to just go
- 35:27Speaker 1: out there and trust my abilities, not so much worry
- 35:29Speaker 1: about messing up. And that's the same thing I've been
- 35:32Speaker 1: sharing with Leonard through throughout theme, throughout this offseason, and
- 35:36Speaker 1: just go out there and play. You know, Coach Wheetley,
- 35:38Speaker 1: he said he's gonna let you play. Just go out
- 35:40Speaker 1: there and trust that he's gonna let you do your thing,
- 35:42Speaker 1: and trust that you're gonna make something happen. So maybe
- 35:45Speaker 1: he's feeling the freedom now. I don't. I don't know
- 35:47Speaker 1: how much different physically does he look to you, Leonard
- 35:51Speaker 1: right now? Um, for me, it's he looks a little
- 35:56Speaker 1: bit leaner. Yeah he still looks big, but he still
- 35:59Speaker 1: looks big. But you know I heard he lost some
- 36:02Speaker 1: weight at one point. I heard the report sage to twenty.
- 36:04Speaker 1: He came into twenties something. I think it's what the
- 36:07Speaker 1: reports were. Yeah, but I don't know how accurate those were. Uh,
- 36:12Speaker 1: you know, because I spoke to someone, uh, the person
- 36:15Speaker 1: that actually weighed him, so he wasn't quite as light,
- 36:18Speaker 1: but he's lighter, you know. He wasn't pushing to forty anything, right,
- 36:24Speaker 1: So I don't see two twenty three and I and
- 36:26Speaker 1: I doubt he wants to be that. Like, did you
- 36:31Speaker 1: have to wait that you felt better at when you play?
- 36:34Speaker 1: You know, Jeff, I was drafted at twenty six and
- 36:37Speaker 1: I can honestly tell you being two thirty plus, which
- 36:40Speaker 1: wasn't often, but there was one game I remember like
- 36:44Speaker 1: it was yesterday. I was two hundred and thirty five pounds.
- 36:48Speaker 1: I felt terrible. My back was on fire. And yeah,
- 36:53Speaker 1: a few plays in a row. You know, I can
- 36:55Speaker 1: only run maybe two carries in the row, three carries
- 36:58Speaker 1: at most. Maybe I just felt feel exhausted, so being
- 37:01Speaker 1: heavier definitely felt bad. Also, Um, I started working out
- 37:06Speaker 1: away from the team down in South Florida and I
- 37:09Speaker 1: came back here at two nineteen. I felt fast. It
- 37:12Speaker 1: could be I was just blazing throughout practice. But Tampa
- 37:17Speaker 1: preseason game, I remember Jermaine Phillips hit me on the
- 37:20Speaker 1: counterplay and he gave me a whiplash and I was
- 37:24Speaker 1: out for the rest of the preseason. As a matter
- 37:28Speaker 1: of fact, I did never wanted to be that light again. Heavy.
- 37:34Speaker 1: You feel terrible. We feel awful, you know. For me
- 37:36Speaker 1: from a cardio from conditioning standpoint, I had power, but
- 37:39Speaker 1: I felt that I couldn't carry the ball. I didn't
- 37:42Speaker 1: necessarily feel that I lost quickness. But when I was light,
- 37:46Speaker 1: felt good being fast and running through. But it just
- 37:49Speaker 1: felt bad when I got hit. We'll come back in
- 37:51Speaker 1: a moment, and let's flip it over to the defensive
- 37:54Speaker 1: side of a bit. Fred Taylor is with us. This
- 37:56Speaker 1: is a Doug Brown show on Jaguar's Radio. If I

- 40:20Speaker 1: The Doug Moron Show continues right now. The Buck Morons
- 40:24Speaker 1: Show continues from Egan, Minnesota. The Jags and the Vikings
- 40:28Speaker 1: on the practice field for their second day of work together.
- 40:31Speaker 1: J P. Shadrick, Jeff Lagaman prior to the Jaguars running
- 40:34Speaker 1: back Fred Taylor with us. Good conversation. Last segment about
- 40:37Speaker 1: running backs. Um, let's let's flip it over to defense now,
- 40:42Speaker 1: and as we talked about earlier, Jeff, this this linebacker
- 40:44Speaker 1: group for the Jaguars, the front line guys Miles, Jack
- 40:49Speaker 1: Telvin Smith, Leon Jacob seems to have a grasp at
- 40:52Speaker 1: least right now on the strong side. But after that,
- 40:55Speaker 1: as the concern, the depth, especially of that linebacker unit
- 40:59Speaker 1: is is what's popping up right now in this game.
- 41:01Speaker 1: Well it is, and it it really showed up, I
- 41:03Speaker 1: think in the first preseason game because those guys played
- 41:05Speaker 1: a ton and also played a ton on special teams
- 41:09Speaker 1: and and I mean they didn't have a very good day.
- 41:11Speaker 1: Blair Brown had a concussion. He's back though he's out
- 41:13Speaker 1: of a concussion protocol. He's practicing, but he just didn't
- 41:17Speaker 1: look comfortable. And linebackers coach Mark Collins yesterday was a
- 41:22Speaker 1: little fired up about it. And when I say fired up,
- 41:25Speaker 1: he was. He had some choice words for some of
- 41:29Speaker 1: his backups and so obviously not very happy there. But
- 41:32Speaker 1: I mean it's a group that's got to get better,
- 41:34Speaker 1: you know, because look, we all know that Telvin is great,
- 41:37Speaker 1: Miles Jack is great, and I think Leon Jacobs fred.
- 41:40Speaker 1: I think the really encouraging thing is is that you
- 41:43Speaker 1: always see a level of communication between Telvin, Miles and Leon.
- 41:49Speaker 1: And you never see it as if Leon going like,
- 41:52Speaker 1: you know, his hands up in the air, going what
- 41:54Speaker 1: am I What am I gonna do on and what
- 41:55Speaker 1: do I do? On his play? He's very confident lines
- 41:58Speaker 1: up and he and he there's no quite shi in
- 42:00Speaker 1: his mind. And I think that's really encouraging. But he
- 42:03Speaker 1: he's a guy that I think it's a Sam and
- 42:06Speaker 1: strictly as Sam only, and I think it will he
- 42:09Speaker 1: would he's a little stiff to play a nickel linebacker.
- 42:13Speaker 1: And so my question is, is Blair Brown taking a
- 42:17Speaker 1: step in year two? Is Donald Payne taking a step
- 42:21Speaker 1: in year two after making the conversion from a college
- 42:24Speaker 1: safety to all a linebacker in the National Football League?
- 42:28Speaker 1: These these guys need to develop, they need to step
- 42:31Speaker 1: up because if everything's perfect and healthy, will Telvin and
- 42:35Speaker 1: Miles Jack, You're fine, But rarely does that happen in
- 42:39Speaker 1: the National Football League? Right? And and Leon And he's
- 42:42Speaker 1: a he's a kid who's been hot, he's spoken of
- 42:45Speaker 1: and Telvin just talking to Telvin, sharing some time with him.
- 42:49Speaker 1: He's a smart kid who he understands, you know, exactly
- 42:52Speaker 1: what the coaches want from them. But again, as Jeff said,
- 42:55Speaker 1: you know you're talking about repetition. Now, he's playing bass
- 42:59Speaker 1: defense for the most part, and you're gonna run into
- 43:01Speaker 1: teams that you're gonna go out there and it's gonna
- 43:04Speaker 1: be as many bass plays as it is third down play.
- 43:07Speaker 1: So if they're not getting off the field and he's
- 43:11Speaker 1: gonna be tapped out, you know, for the course of
- 43:13Speaker 1: the game, all the linebackers for that matter. Um, but again,
- 43:16Speaker 1: you have a pretty solid group, just don't have enough
- 43:19Speaker 1: bodies to stretch around. Um. But I think in his development,
- 43:24Speaker 1: he'll get out there and he'll see some things where
- 43:27Speaker 1: he will allow him to play faster, play smarter, and
- 43:30Speaker 1: who he will learn how to find that extra you know,
- 43:33Speaker 1: that extra small piece of energy. You know that he's
- 43:37Speaker 1: gonna expel throughout the course of the preseason because he's
- 43:40Speaker 1: a young guy. So now all he knows is just go,
- 43:43Speaker 1: go go. When do I catch a break? When do
- 43:45Speaker 1: I know how to cheat it? Because this job is
- 43:47Speaker 1: to attack the fullbacks and beat up the tight end
- 43:51Speaker 1: and not allowing his releach and maintain leverage on the outside.
- 43:55Speaker 1: So but again, very thin. And the coach, the coaching staff,
- 43:59Speaker 1: they realize the sense of urgency getting closer to the
- 44:02Speaker 1: regular season. Quite naturally, they're going to dive into those
- 44:06Speaker 1: guys a bit more as we go in preseason because
- 44:09Speaker 1: start trying to find someone to be that second And
- 44:12Speaker 1: I think that's why yesterday you kind of had Mark
- 44:15Speaker 1: Conlin's linebackers coach. You know, there the growling kind of
- 44:19Speaker 1: you know, attitude with some of his players yesterday because
- 44:22Speaker 1: he I think he realizes that, look, we've we've got
- 44:24Speaker 1: to accelerate correct the improvement process with our depth. Let's
- 44:29Speaker 1: return and let's tell into the wide receivers. We haven't
- 44:32Speaker 1: touched on those guys yet and their training camp. Who's
- 44:36Speaker 1: gonna break through and and make the roster in this group?
- 44:39Speaker 1: Or is it too early to tell. We'll find out
- 44:41Speaker 1: in a moment. It's the Doug Moron Show from the

- 47:53Speaker 1: Com studio. The Doug Moron Show continues right now, but
- 48:02Speaker 1: Doug Maron Show continues from Egan, Minnesota. Jaguars vikings practice
- 48:06Speaker 1: continues on the fields behind us, J P Shadick, Jeff Lagerman,
- 48:10Speaker 1: Fred Taylor along with US today. Tony Boselli joined us earlier.
- 48:13Speaker 1: Of course, no Doug Maron since Doug Maron is doing
- 48:16Speaker 1: Doug Marone things on the practice field today. Of course,
- 48:19Speaker 1: wide receiver crew here. You know, you get a pretty
- 48:22Speaker 1: good idea guys of the five guys that are gonna
- 48:26Speaker 1: be the five? Would they keep us six? Can they
- 48:29Speaker 1: return up punt? Who could those guys be? I think
- 48:33Speaker 1: is still the question even a few weeks in the camp.
- 48:35Speaker 1: We might know that until the final cut really well,
- 48:38Speaker 1: and I think alshow that you know, sometimes it's a
- 48:41Speaker 1: situation like this where you say, Okay, who's gonna be
- 48:43Speaker 1: those guys? Yeah, you say you okay, we know who
- 48:46Speaker 1: the five probably are gonna be. Is there gonna be
- 48:48Speaker 1: six but sometimes those things have a tendency to play
- 48:51Speaker 1: out because of injury, you know, to where you know
- 48:53Speaker 1: what you think, you know, okay, because we're trying to
- 48:55Speaker 1: out to make a decision based on everybody's gonna be
- 48:58Speaker 1: there at the app and rarely does that happen, and
- 49:02Speaker 1: so you kind of gotta let things play up. But
- 49:04Speaker 1: right now, I think I think it's a very It's
- 49:06Speaker 1: probably one of the healthiest battles in training camp because
- 49:10Speaker 1: it has depth and it has talent. I mean, it's
- 49:12Speaker 1: just not we're not we're not talking about guys here,
- 49:15Speaker 1: and we're talking about a couple of guys that may
- 49:17Speaker 1: end up getting cut, like we're Shot Green Jr. You
- 49:19Speaker 1: know that could get cut or Jaden mckinns that. You
- 49:21Speaker 1: know what, when if they get let go, they're probably
- 49:24Speaker 1: gonna have a job within the next couple of days.
- 49:27Speaker 1: So I think it's a fun group to watch and
- 49:30Speaker 1: I and I agree with Jeff, which makes them all better.
- 49:32Speaker 1: You know, it is a narrow margin between these guys.
- 49:35Speaker 1: They're all talented, as Jeff mentioned, but again, you have
- 49:38Speaker 1: guys such as Dante mon Creeve, you know, who's done
- 49:41Speaker 1: some good things in the league. Yet he's had some injuries.
- 49:44Speaker 1: So a question mark is gonna be can we depend
- 49:46Speaker 1: on this guy throughout the course of the season, or
- 49:49Speaker 1: do we take a younger guy who's a second year
- 49:52Speaker 1: player or whatever and continue to try to develop him
- 49:56Speaker 1: who maybe hasn't been as injured. But the good thing
- 49:59Speaker 1: is you're gonna to get some great competition out of it.
- 50:02Speaker 1: It's gonna make them all better, whoever it is they
- 50:05Speaker 1: decided to take. It's definitely gonna make them all better.
- 50:08Speaker 1: And and you know, I think it will also we'll
- 50:10Speaker 1: start to see you know, separation and separation will occur
- 50:14Speaker 1: through the preseason with guys, level of play, etcetera. But
- 50:17Speaker 1: you know, I'm a I'm kind of stuck on this one.
- 50:21Speaker 1: You know, is it gonna be five wide receivers or
- 50:23Speaker 1: is it gonna be six on the fifty three man roster?
- 50:26Speaker 1: Because if you think about what they want to be,
- 50:29Speaker 1: they want to be a smash mouth, physical, physical officer. Okay,
- 50:34Speaker 1: last time I checked. Okay, when you're gonna be a
- 50:36Speaker 1: smash mouth, physical offense, that doesn't mean you're gonna keep
- 50:39Speaker 1: six wide receivers on the roster. Okay, I mean usually
- 50:42Speaker 1: you're gonna keep five, but I think that there is
- 50:47Speaker 1: good reason to keep six because Jaydon Mickens, I think
- 50:51Speaker 1: is the best punt returner of the bunch. And I
- 50:53Speaker 1: also think that he can give you something that's just
- 50:56Speaker 1: different at the wide receiver position, because he saw him
- 51:00Speaker 1: step in and win a game against Cincinnati was a
- 51:03Speaker 1: punt return. We saw him step in in the injury
- 51:06Speaker 1: situation when Alan Hearns went down last year, when he
- 51:08Speaker 1: kind of crawled off the sidelines, it was a rogue
- 51:10Speaker 1: move and all of a sudden, Jado mckins comes in
- 51:13Speaker 1: and then bam, touchdown. You know, And so I want
- 51:17Speaker 1: to see much like you know, we we clamored for
- 51:21Speaker 1: Corey uh Corey Grant to play more last year. I'm
- 51:24Speaker 1: not saying that they need to carve out a role
- 51:27Speaker 1: for for Jadon Nickin, but when given the opportunity, I
- 51:30Speaker 1: think he's a special talent and can do some special
- 51:33Speaker 1: things because he's got that that short area quickness and
- 51:36Speaker 1: he has that confid in and that in factor. Is
- 51:39Speaker 1: this a matter of getting reps, but his his punt
- 51:42Speaker 1: return ability, And I know BUSSELLI gives me grief about this.
- 51:45Speaker 1: I honestly think that he if he if he gets
- 51:48Speaker 1: back to where where he was at, which was when
- 51:51Speaker 1: he first started being on the active roster as a
- 51:53Speaker 1: punt return. If he stays at that level, he will
- 51:57Speaker 1: be the greatest punt return of the Jaguars have ever
- 51:59Speaker 1: had because he does a great job of taking a
- 52:02Speaker 1: couple of steps, planting his foot and then getting north
- 52:06Speaker 1: south in a hurry. And he is fearless, He is
- 52:08Speaker 1: absolutely fearless. Who would be the best point return to Barlow? Yeah,
- 52:12Speaker 1: I was gonna say Reggie Barlow. Guy, both of us
- 52:15Speaker 1: teammates with hands down Barlow. I don't think it's anyone else's. Yeah,
- 52:21Speaker 1: probably not below. We called him below. I mean Dennis
- 52:24Speaker 1: north Cut this some good stuff when he was here. Yeah,
- 52:27Speaker 1: you know he didn't. Yeah, but he wasn't as consistent.
- 52:31Speaker 1: Was definitely a big return. Reggie was really consistent. Never
- 52:34Speaker 1: said two words. And by the way, one of the
- 52:36Speaker 1: one of the better head coaches in college football. Durs.
- 52:38Speaker 1: Right now, let's come back. We'll wrap it up. The Jackson,
- 52:42Speaker 1: the Vikings on the field behind us. This is the
- 52:44Speaker 1: Doug Moron Show on Jaguars Radio. As a young boy,
- 52:51Speaker 1: Gavin loved playing football. He lived and breathed it wanted
- 52:54Speaker 1: to go pro. Why he'd spent hours upon hours just
- 52:57Speaker 1: practicing his touchdown that's his and one day well getting
- 53:00Speaker 1: fitted for bifocals. He realized he was never much good
- 53:03Speaker 1: at throwing, or running, or catching or even kicking. Yeah,
- 53:07Speaker 1: Gavin's chances of playing grow football. We're looking like fourth
- 53:09Speaker 1: and long, very long. But he did hear how Geiko
- 53:12Speaker 1: could save him money on car insurance, so he switched

- 56:10Speaker 1: from Egan, Minnesota at the Vikings Practice Complex, j P. Shadrick,
- 56:14Speaker 1: Jeff Lagman prior to the Jaguars running Back Fred Taylor,
- 56:17Speaker 1: The Jaguars and the Vikings coming up Saturday one pm
- 56:20Speaker 1: Eastern time is the kickoff and the Jags and the
- 56:23Speaker 1: Vikings playing the second preseason game. I guess a relatively
- 56:27Speaker 1: rare preseason day game for the Jacks. I don't remember
- 56:30Speaker 1: one being during the day since at least I've been
- 56:31Speaker 1: around here. But um, a chance for this group to
- 56:34Speaker 1: get back out. The starters will go probably a little
- 56:36Speaker 1: bit longer, right, what about a quarter? You think, guys,
- 56:40Speaker 1: will be a quarter? Maybe a little ower quarter. Usually
- 56:44Speaker 1: the coaches would say get a quarter in and maybe
- 56:47Speaker 1: my two series in the second quarter. Just change and feel,
- 56:51Speaker 1: you know, being able to go to opposite direction. Just
- 56:53Speaker 1: little stuff, you know. I think the one thing that
- 56:55Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to as well. First of all, I've
- 56:56Speaker 1: watching the starters play a little bit longer. But you
- 57:00Speaker 1: Spank Stadium. Is that the correct name of it, by
- 57:02Speaker 1: the way, it's U S Bank Stadiums. I'm looking forward
- 57:05Speaker 1: to seeing this place. I mean, this is the I've
- 57:07Speaker 1: heard you know that it is tremendous, and so looking
- 57:10Speaker 1: forward to seeing the inside of this thing. And I
- 57:13Speaker 1: made a comment yesterday to somebody who had seen it,
- 57:15Speaker 1: and I said, it does it? How does it compare
- 57:17Speaker 1: to Jerry's world, which is Cowboys Stadium and the statement
- 57:21Speaker 1: was paid. Nothing compares to Jerry's ward. So I mean,
- 57:26Speaker 1: even though it's not gonna but I'm not expecting it
- 57:28Speaker 1: to be as good. But I mean when we we
- 57:29Speaker 1: drive by it every time, when we come out here
- 57:31Speaker 1: to Eden Egan Egan, Okay, Egan, Minnesota, and it's a monstrosity.
- 57:38Speaker 1: I mean it's it's huge. And the crazy thing about
- 57:41Speaker 1: Minneappolis St. Paul here is that every major sports league
- 57:45Speaker 1: has a new stadium or on the way. Baseball right
- 57:50Speaker 1: has sum Okay, the Target Center brand new, and then
- 57:56Speaker 1: there's a new stadium under construction and the Major League
- 57:59Speaker 1: Soccer even we saw that looks like a space ship.
- 58:01Speaker 1: It's around twenty thousand seats. Yes, yeah, it's pretty cool, definitely. Uh.
- 58:06Speaker 1: And it's a big city now, a big city. And
- 58:09Speaker 1: it's cold, buddy, it gets cold here in the winter,
- 58:12Speaker 1: Yes it does, indeed it does. So I look forward
- 58:15Speaker 1: to preseason a week two coming up this Saturday. Uh.
- 58:19Speaker 1: In general, Fred, what do you want to see out
- 58:22Speaker 1: of this group as a collective unit here on Saturday? Obviously,
- 58:26Speaker 1: stay healthy? I think it is number one. But that
- 58:28Speaker 1: definitely the health without a doubt, I think just getting
- 58:31Speaker 1: out there as well as they did last week. I'd
- 58:33Speaker 1: like to see him you know, open again on from
- 58:36Speaker 1: offensive standpoint. They always start to talk about starting fast,
- 58:40Speaker 1: and last week they started fast. It started great. They
- 58:42Speaker 1: had a long drive, seven minute drive start preseason, start
- 58:46Speaker 1: the new year and maybe let the fans know this
- 58:48Speaker 1: is what you can look to expect. So I'm I'm
- 58:50Speaker 1: hoping expecting to see the same exact open or I
- 58:54Speaker 1: would even take a you know, to play. Let's take
- 58:56Speaker 1: a shot, big play and see some of that pretty stuff. Definitely,
- 59:00Speaker 1: we'd like to see the offense come out and stay rhythmatic. Obviously,
- 59:04Speaker 1: Blake get out there and and control the offense as
- 59:07Speaker 1: he did start in the game last week. I want
- 59:09Speaker 1: to babe to see Leonard get a couple more carries
- 59:11Speaker 1: and uh, you know, see his abilities again and hopefully
- 59:15Speaker 1: that was play us. I'm exciting for the fans. Fred,
- 59:18Speaker 1: great to see you, Thanks for coming on. Now is
