  Speaker 3: Good afternoon, good afternoon, Glad to be here, Glad to
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: have you back.
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: Clogs. Here we are. It's week three Divisional. No, they're crazy,
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: it goes by so fast. But lost opportunity there in Cincinnati.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: Little disappointing, I think the disappointing thing, but also the
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: good thing about that game was there were so many
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: ways they could have won the game, you know, whether
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: it's making a play on defense, whether it's doing a
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: better job by forcing the opponent in a worse field
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: position there towards the end of the game. Offense, just
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: making a play. I mean, there's probably like five plays
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: offensively that you say, just make one of them, you know,
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: and any one of those scenarios could have been the
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: difference in the game. And to me, that tells you
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: that you're doing a lot of really good things. You
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: just got to make those plays.
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, Jeff, no question about it.
• 2:19
  Speaker 5: I mean again, even the last crive, the defense getting
• 2:21
  Speaker 5: them in the fourth down situations that they have an
• 2:23
  Speaker 5: opportunity to win now.
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: And I'm not a big.
• 2:25
  Speaker 5: Crier about officiating, but there's three situations in that game
• 2:29
  Speaker 5: that were major in terms of officials decisions. Early in
• 2:32
  Speaker 5: the game, first drive batted passed I think was I
• 2:36
  Speaker 5: think it was Armstead, No, it was Walker on the quarterback.
• 2:40
  Speaker 5: That could have gone our way, but in points field
• 2:42
  Speaker 5: position for sure. Secondly, you know, you've got the potential
• 2:49
  Speaker 5: interference call, which I still think was not a good call.
• 2:52
  Speaker 5: The official had an angle that I don't think was
• 2:56
  Speaker 5: I mean from his angle, it looked like it may
• 2:57
  Speaker 5: have been.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: Totally look from his angle, but it really wasn't.
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: Yo, she didn't get touched, and Yo, she's falling.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: He's just falling down, falling down.
• 3:05
  Speaker 5: I mean, so that call and then and then the
• 3:07
  Speaker 5: interception by Lloyd, I mean, Jesel Pete to this moment,
• 3:10
  Speaker 5: I'm still not sure he's down and that's touchdown.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And so that one dead early, so you can't
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: review it, and.
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: We understood, but we got no you know, we got
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: no points out of that, whereas we clearly had potential points.
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: So as you said, so many positive things in the
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: ball game.
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, a lot of positive that to go with this. Yeah,
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: you can clean up some things. I mean, what is
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: the most positive aspect of a game like this stuff?
• 3:34
  Speaker 5: I think the team came off the field knowing that
• 3:36
  Speaker 5: they had that game that they played against a team
• 3:38
  Speaker 5: that you know, by rights is a playoff team, and uh,
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: you know they had him. They led the entire game
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: till eighteen seconds left, and you know, at times was
• 3:48
  Speaker 5: dominating the game. So I mean they know coming off
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: the guys that play in that game and contributed to
• 3:55
  Speaker 5: that that they deserve to win the game. And now
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: that they didn't, hopefully they got the itch of a gun.
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: We're not letting another one get away from us.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: I think for me, it's the you know, if you
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: have one game that's a physical brand of style of
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: football that could be an aberration. When you do it again,
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: then it becomes a pattern. And so for me, I
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: mean the way that they are just playing a physical
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: brand of football is impressing me. And it's not just
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: being physical on the offense, because I mean that's kind
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: of where it's just glaring how good it is. The
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: two backs are tremendous. The offensive line is doing a
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: very good job of finishing with the tight ends. The
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: play calling at times is like, hey, we're going to
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: ram up your rear end, and I like that occasionally,
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: probably would have liked the scene a little bit more
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: on Sunday. And defensively playing a physical style, I mean,
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: forty four I think leads the way in that department,
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: the way he plays the game and the way he
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: has been playing. But to me, that's that's the biggest
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: change from last year to this year thus far to
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: me is how physical this football team is.
• 5:03
  Speaker 5: Fully agree and that you said the play calling. I
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: mean the first drive they went right down the field.
• 5:07
  Speaker 5: They again take the ball on the toss, go right
• 5:10
  Speaker 5: down the field, score a touchdown instead of a field
• 5:12
  Speaker 5: goal this week, but score off defensively, it's.
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: Three and out.
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: I mean, then they come back, they got another drive
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: going until they get an interception which was really a
• 5:21
  Speaker 5: catchable ball that gets tipped and tips and overthrows. They
• 5:23
  Speaker 5: get it next drive touchdown. So a lot of good
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: play calls, a lot of good execution early on, and.
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: Then on the defensive side. You know, Chase was going
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: to get his We kind of talked about that last
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: week and he certainly did. But then everything else, for
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: the most pretty good was held in check until the
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: Higgins long one for the touchdown. I got to tackle
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: better on that one. Do it, and you know what,
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: they had the three takeaways again. Now, this Jags defense
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: leads the league in takeaways with six.
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: Outstanding.
• 5:49
  Speaker 5: Really, I mean when you that being an issue that
• 5:51
  Speaker 5: everybody talked about from last year to right.
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: Now, are you, kidney?
• 5:55
  Speaker 5: They lead the lead the league in rushing, they lead
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: the league in takeaway geez. I mean areas that were
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: certainly focused in on now to lead the league excellent.
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they're doing a good job with that and keep
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: them coming. Yeah, you know, I mean, look six two games,
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: and if you get another three this game, you tied
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: last year's total in three weeks. You imagine. I mean,
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: if they do it in three weeks, which you know,
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: good yeah, man, you know, knock on wood. I mean,
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: if they can do that, it would be tremendous. And
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: I don't know Stroud's going to throw them three, but
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: there's other ways to get them. But a good job
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: by the defense and uh, and there's still some meat
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: left on the bone defensively, you know, I mean to
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: be honest with you, the last thing in the world
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: that you wanted to have happen is to have a
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: backup quarterback get the win. And so at the end
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: of the day, you know, I know that Liam Comb
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: was very happy with his defense and kind of praised
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: him a little bit. But at the end end of
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: the day, they still scored more points than you. So
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: that means that you need to be better on that
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: side of the ball.
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: The I think the biggest one of the biggest storylines
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: out of last week's game, of course, was the play
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: of Brian Thomas, junior Jaguars wide receiver. Twelve targets in
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: the game, four catches in the game, and he was
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: asked a lot this week about a possible slump.
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: How do you get out of it? Here's what he said.
• 7:16
  Speaker 6: No, I wouldn't call it a slump. I mean just
• 7:17
  Speaker 6: gotta go out there to execute and make the play.
• 7:19
  Speaker 6: I wouldn't say I'm in the slump in nineties. I
• 7:21
  Speaker 6: gotta when my name called my number college, you gotta
• 7:24
  Speaker 6: got there to execue, make the play.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: Is it. You think it's an overreaction to a couple
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: of games. Uh, I don't really.
• 7:32
  Speaker 6: People look at it how they look at it. People
• 7:33
  Speaker 6: got their own opinion. So everything mean they you.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: Can look at how you look at it, however you
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: want to.
• 7:38
  Speaker 6: Look at I know what I know, Like I said,
• 7:39
  Speaker 6: I know what I'm peable.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: I know I do. Uh So, yeah, everybody got their
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: only opinion. So it is what it is.
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: It's Brian Thomas Junior in the locker room this week,
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: So coach nineteen targets for the season, five catches sixty
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: yards for a young player, is the second year player
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: in the league, obviously having some confidence issues of some sort.
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: It looks like on the field, at least from the
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: view of it. Do you how do you get him
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: back on track? As a coach?
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: Well, I think this.
• 8:05
  Speaker 5: You know, when when I started watching him in training
• 8:09
  Speaker 5: came everything I heard was this is the best player
• 8:12
  Speaker 5: on the team. And I kind of saw the team
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: from afar last year being at Cincinnati and how productive
• 8:17
  Speaker 5: and prolific he was as a rookie. I think what
• 8:19
  Speaker 5: you do, and I think I'm sure the coaches have
• 8:21
  Speaker 5: done this. You take plays that he's done and show
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: him showing me catching the ball, making terrific catches, making
• 8:28
  Speaker 5: clutch catches, making plays when we need it the most.
• 8:31
  Speaker 5: He did that.
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: It's not made up. Those aren't words.
• 8:34
  Speaker 5: So I think they probably have drowned him in a
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: way of exposure to what he's done and the fact
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: and just trying to help him a little bit. As
• 8:42
  Speaker 5: far as that's concerned, I think that's all it is.
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: Sometimes players press, whether it's not sometimes oftentimes, whether it's
• 8:48
  Speaker 5: a quarterback where there's me missing tackles, missing a block,
• 8:52
  Speaker 5: whatever the case may be, and they get into a
• 8:54
  Speaker 5: little bit of funks, if you will, and to get
• 8:57
  Speaker 5: out of that funk, you just reinforce it with this
• 8:59
  Speaker 5: is what you've on. We're not making this up, and
• 9:02
  Speaker 5: to show it to him and let that our minds
• 9:04
  Speaker 5: are tape recorders. They kind of record good and bad.
• 9:07
  Speaker 5: I'm pump him with all the best that that guy
• 9:09
  Speaker 5: has done, so that gets back into his frame of
• 9:12
  Speaker 5: mind and he'll come out of this and you'll see
• 9:14
  Speaker 5: it make productive plays.
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: I think it's going to be be interesting to see
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: how he performs going forward. You know, if you ignore
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: last year and you look at his performance in preseason camp.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: In the first two games so far, you would say
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: that it's time to reduce his number of snaps. I mean,
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: that's that's the reality. I mean, it's you know, look,
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: I think he's a marvelous player, but he's not playing
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: like a marvelous player right now. The thing that I
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: think is going to be interesting to watch is Canny
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: get his swagger back. I haven't seen that this year.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: You know. That's the thing that concerns me the most,
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: is that the performance is not where it's been in
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: the past, but most importantly, the body language and the
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: swagger is not where it's been in the past.
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: Remember early last season, that Dolphins game stuff. I don't
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: know if you might not remember this, but it was
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: down in Miami. He catches a long ball on Jalen Ramsey.
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: Actually he didn't catch it. He actually was just an
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: interference call, right, Okay, But there at the end zone
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: and Jalen's yapping at him and he's right back in
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: his face, like, where is that guy?
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: Well, you know, I think it's inconsistency, and I think
• 10:28
  Speaker 5: Jeff and both of you know it better than me.
• 10:31
  Speaker 5: I remember listening to all this talking training camp and
• 10:34
  Speaker 5: then when I didn't have the privilege to go, but
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: at the practice against Miami G's or Pete, he made
• 10:40
  Speaker 5: plays out and everybody thought, Okay, he's back, you know.
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: And so obviously inconsistency has been the culprit here and
• 10:47
  Speaker 5: I just suspect that, as I said, through suggestion of
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: the film and everything else, getting to see all that
• 10:53
  Speaker 5: again and then also play design. Let's let's see how
• 10:57
  Speaker 5: we can feature him by design and what his responsibility
• 11:01
  Speaker 5: be to help him get that swagger, that confidence back.
• 11:04
  Speaker 5: So I think that's part of it too. That's what
• 11:06
  Speaker 5: we do as coaches.

• 11:23
  Speaker 3: Dufner and studio with us.
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: Let's move forward.
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: Now, let's put all that in the rear view and
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: take a look at the Houston, Texas Texans. They are
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: they're backs up against the wall, they're oh and two.
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: But how real is that? In the league. When you
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: know a defending champ in this division is oh and
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: two back against the wall, gotta have it kind of game.
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: How dangerous are those teams in the league.
• 11:47
  Speaker 5: Well, I think that they're dangerous, you know, for sure.
• 11:49
  Speaker 5: But let's analyze that a little bit. They played two
• 11:52
  Speaker 5: playoff teams the first two games. They lose the first
• 11:55
  Speaker 5: one by five, they lose the second one by one,
• 11:57
  Speaker 5: and by all right, should have won that game. So
• 12:00
  Speaker 5: I don't know that they're in desperate mode, if you will.
• 12:04
  Speaker 5: As a team, you know, they've they've been used to winning,
• 12:06
  Speaker 5: they've won that division. Does it put a little stress, Yeah,
• 12:11
  Speaker 5: there's some eb urgency right now, and you hope that
• 12:12
  Speaker 5: they respond to that. But this is a little better
• 12:15
  Speaker 5: team than I think you think.
• 12:16
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 12:16
  Speaker 5: They've they've struggled on offense and that's going to be
• 12:20
  Speaker 5: you know, trying to get consistency. But I'll remind you
• 12:22
  Speaker 5: this that there were two teams in the league last
• 12:26
  Speaker 5: year that had the best in terms of starting games
• 12:28
  Speaker 5: out first position scoring. They were one of them. They
• 12:32
  Speaker 5: didn't do it in the first game because they didn't
• 12:33
  Speaker 5: score a touchdown, they had just field goals. But in
• 12:35
  Speaker 5: this last ball game opening drive touchdown, second drive field goal.
• 12:39
  Speaker 5: So you know they've had flashes. They're trying to find
• 12:42
  Speaker 5: their swagger, their consistency, but it's a dangerous team coming
• 12:46
  Speaker 5: in talent wise, especially on defense.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: Yeh, Offensively, they've got issues. I think it's like their
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: third coordinator in three years under their head coach. And
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: if you look at their offensive lineup, the offensive line itself,
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: they had one guy play the same position from week
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: one to week two, and that's obviously going to be
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: a problem just because of consistency. It's hard to be
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: consistent and productive when the lineup changes so much. I
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: thought they got better this pass game up front than
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: they were the game before. And by the way, Cam
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: Robinson was in the lineup week one, he's out. He's
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: now backup, and they've moved in their rookie second round
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: pick out of Minnesota, ariante Ursery, and he's a good
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: football player at left tackle. I think Josh has got
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: to make some hay against him. Trayvon's got to be
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: able to take advantage of Titus Howard, who's been kind
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: of a guard half of the time in the NFL
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: since he's been there. But you've got to keep them
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: off balance offensively. Right now, They've got one wide receiver
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: that's absolutely a dangerous weapon, and that's Nico Collins. Christian
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: Kirk is kind of their number two, but he hasn't
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: played yet, so you'd like to keep them where they are,
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: which is struggling to find a little bit of a rhythm.
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: How about CJ.
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: Stroud And I mean it seems a little similar with
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: Burrow in this regard that he takes a lot of hits,
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: contact a bunch of sacks, right, but he always seems
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: to step up, and he's always stepped up against this
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: Jaguars team too. He has not thrown an interception against
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: the Jaguars in four games.
• 14:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah, no, I mean he's a dangerous player. I mean,
• 14:28
  Speaker 5: this is a Rookie of the Year in twenty twenty three.
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: Now he struggled to get back to that form. And
• 14:32
  Speaker 5: what I think a lot of it has to do
• 14:34
  Speaker 5: with what Jeb was talking about the offensive line, new
• 14:36
  Speaker 5: offensive coordinator for new Lineman. Last year, he was probably
• 14:40
  Speaker 5: the second most sacked and quarterback in the league. So
• 14:44
  Speaker 5: he's you know, he's gotten beaten up quite a bit,
• 14:46
  Speaker 5: but fifty two sacks, like fifty two sacks, but still
• 14:50
  Speaker 5: and I think in the first game he was about
• 14:52
  Speaker 5: seventy percent completion. Last week about fifty four percent, so
• 14:55
  Speaker 5: that struggle, he's about sixty three overall six times he's
• 14:58
  Speaker 5: been sacked. So but this rascal can make you miss.
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: I mean, so he's, you know, still a dangerous player
• 15:05
  Speaker 5: that's going to challenge us in terms of contained We've
• 15:07
  Speaker 5: got to affect this quarterback. And you know, Burrios wideout's
• 15:11
  Speaker 5: coming back. It looks like Kirk's coming back, so they'll
• 15:14
  Speaker 5: have a little bit more weapons, as Jeff alluded to.
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: So you know, he has the ability to stress you
• 15:19
  Speaker 5: on defense a big time, and he did. I'll tell
• 15:22
  Speaker 5: you another thing about him. Both games in the game
• 15:25
  Speaker 5: against the Rams and the game against the Bucks in
• 15:27
  Speaker 5: two minute where they have struggled frankly offensively, this cat
• 15:31
  Speaker 5: has had about a fifteen yard scrambled a nineteen yard
• 15:34
  Speaker 5: scramble in two minute, which is an issue because they
• 15:36
  Speaker 5: can Again those are critical times where they're trying to score.
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: So you know he's going to command our top attention
• 15:43
  Speaker 5: and focus for sure.
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and Scrambler's really I mean, that's kind of rare
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: for him. You know, that's that's not what he wants
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: to do. I mean, he's a he's a passer, he
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: wants to throw it. And arm talent. He's one of
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: the best in the league. I mean literally, he reminds
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: me in a lot of situations like Patrick Mahomes and
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: that he can be off balance and literally with a
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: flick of the wrist he can drop a dime at
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: forty yards. I mean, he's one of those guys and
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: that makes you nervous just because he can get hot
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: at a moment's notice. I mean, go back to his
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: rookie year when he had like one hundred quarterback rating,
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: was averaging I don't know, three over three hundred yards
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: a game. I believe it was passing or something crazy
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: like that. I mean, but he's just he's got that
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: kind of talent, and that's what makes you nervous, is
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: because you know that that arm talent is there. We've
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: got plenty more ahead or a turn and take a
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: look at that Texans defense. The strength of this team
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: coming to the bank this Sunday, and tickets are available
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: This Sunday, September twenty First, the Texans and the Jaguars

  Speaker 3: Victory when we return as well on Jaguars Happy Hour.
• 17:11
  Speaker 7: Being in that division in LA with San fran right,
• 17:15
  Speaker 7: very very similar structure, the way that they come off
• 17:19
  Speaker 7: the rock, the way that they want to disrupt, we
• 17:22
  Speaker 7: have got to have another sound plan when it comes
• 17:25
  Speaker 7: to protecting the quarterback, but also in the run game,
• 17:30
  Speaker 7: you know, manufacturing different ways to manipulate those guys. Like
• 17:34
  Speaker 7: I said, it takes all eleven, but specifically the way
• 17:37
  Speaker 7: that they want to roll off and come off the
• 17:39
  Speaker 7: rock and play talented. Got a lot of respect for
• 17:43
  Speaker 7: the way that those guys play the game and can
• 17:45
  Speaker 7: be very disruptive.
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: Jaguars Happy Hour from the Hyundai Studios the Miller Electric
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: Center continues. That was head coach Liam Cohen discussing the
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: pass rush and defensive line for the Houston Texans. We're
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: on Tenson XL ninety two point five FM, Jaguars dot Com,
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: Jaguars YouTube coming up at five o'clock.
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: It's Jaggs HQ will have.
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: Tony Bisselli and James Gladstone and Studio Live that's coming
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: up in just a little bit.
• 18:08
  Speaker 8: J P.
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: Shadwick, Jeff Logoman, coach Mark Dufner and Studio with us.
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: Says, we continue to look ahead to the Houston Texans,
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: and this is where I believe the game's going to
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: be made. Texans defense physicality, Jaguars offensive physicality. If they
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: want to be that mindset, this is the week to
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: prove it. Duff, What have they shown at least on
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: defense on tape and what do they do well on
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: that side of the ball.
• 18:34
  Speaker 5: Well, first of all, they are an athletic bunch, very
• 18:37
  Speaker 5: talented group. They can run to the football, they got recoverability,
• 18:40
  Speaker 5: they can get back in plays. I mean really a
• 18:42
  Speaker 5: pretty talented group, especially in the edges, in the two corners,
• 18:45
  Speaker 5: and I mean really their primeter type defense. But in
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: my book, I would do exactly what our offense is all.
• 18:51
  Speaker 4: About is run the ball.
• 18:53
  Speaker 5: I mean, you saw Tampa Bay run it for about
• 18:56
  Speaker 5: one hundred and seventy against him the.
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: Other night, and they gave the Cover two team.
• 19:02
  Speaker 5: They're about twenty well over twenty snaps of Cover two
• 19:06
  Speaker 5: in fact, forty and I charted forty in the Tampa
• 19:08
  Speaker 5: Bay game and twenty in the first game.
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: So when they're in Cover two, they got two.
• 19:11
  Speaker 5: Hard corners that are kind of out of the not
• 19:14
  Speaker 5: kind of they're out of the box by distribution in
• 19:16
  Speaker 5: terms of they're playing the run game. Now those are
• 19:18
  Speaker 5: active corners, but they're out of the core. So now
• 19:22
  Speaker 5: we're running against really what went them out to a
• 19:23
  Speaker 5: seven man front the front and two linebackers and maybe
• 19:27
  Speaker 5: a strong safety coming from depth. So I would run
• 19:31
  Speaker 5: right at them. They're a four man front, so they
• 19:34
  Speaker 5: give you that look and they don't do much movement,
• 19:37
  Speaker 5: so you're gonna know where they're lining up. I mean,
• 19:39
  Speaker 5: so for me and putting together the run game, we
• 19:41
  Speaker 5: know where they're going to be. They're not real big inside.
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: Their backers are off the ball a little bit. Now
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: they're active, but they're off the ball.
• 19:48
  Speaker 5: With the physicality and the success we've had in the
• 19:50
  Speaker 5: run game, I would knock their tail off the ball.
• 19:52
  Speaker 5: I'd run it and run it and run it, and
• 19:55
  Speaker 5: then occasionally put in the if we can get our
• 19:57
  Speaker 5: quarterback to scramble a little bit, that'll help too, and
• 20:00
  Speaker 5: we get them to third down. Now we've got them
• 20:02
  Speaker 5: and we will get to that. But they're struggling on
• 20:05
  Speaker 5: third down. They're like twenty two percent. They're at the
• 20:07
  Speaker 5: bottom of the league on third down. So I think
• 20:09
  Speaker 5: they set up real well for what our offense is
• 20:12
  Speaker 5: all about and what our game plan is with the
• 20:14
  Speaker 5: running attack and play action pass.
• 20:16
  Speaker 4: I think let's go get it.
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a big game for the running backs. I
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: think with the ETN and Basel Twoton, I think those
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: guys got to have big games kind of keep that
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: Texans off bounce. But I think one of the cool
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: things about this game is how how often do you
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: get two head coaches that are calling the plays on
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: opposite sides of the ball. You know, he Leaam Cohne
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: calling the plays for the Jaguars offense and then Demiko
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: Ryans obviously calling plays for the Texans defense. You don't
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: kind of battle the head coaches here a little bit,
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: you know. So I think the dybum I'm looking forward
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: to that and if they've got two backs that are
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: playing well like they have in the first two games,
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: because it's been really good performances across the board for
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: the running backs, and it's gonna It's gonna make the
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: game a lot easier for Trevor Lawrence. It's also going
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: to make the game easier for Brian Thomas Junior. And
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: then you got to find a way to get Parker
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: Washington involved more. And if that's taking snaps away from
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: Brian Thomas Junior or Deammi Brown, so be it. It's
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: a game of the fittest and the strongest, and that's
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: how it always has been and that's the way it
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: always will be because the bottom line is winning, and
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: best performances get you winning.
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: Shooting and one hundred percent.
• 21:29
  Speaker 5: Parker certainly showed last week he was thirsty for the
• 21:31
  Speaker 5: ball and when he got it, he made things happen.
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: So I'm with you on that.
• 21:34
  Speaker 5: The other point I think I bring up real quick too,
• 21:37
  Speaker 5: is Liam's exposure to Tampa Bay and his players there
• 21:41
  Speaker 5: and what they did the other night, and then his
• 21:43
  Speaker 5: exposure to the Rams and what they did in the
• 21:46
  Speaker 5: first game gives him a notch up too in terms
• 21:48
  Speaker 5: of the preparation of game planning as they prepare for
• 21:51
  Speaker 5: the Texans. So I feel like, you know, a lot
• 21:54
  Speaker 5: of things are falling into place as far as the
• 21:56
  Speaker 5: preparation for this game.
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: All the players have said the right things this week
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: when they've been asked about as he's al Shire and
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: the hit on Trevor Lawrence last year, that it's in
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: the rear view, not moving forward, But Duff, it's on
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: everybody else's mind. I know that everybody remembers Trevor Lawrence
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: is getting hit in the head and then missing the
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: rest of the season. Does that come into play at
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: all this week or is it just in general we're
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: gonna play hard, tough Jaguars football against that guy.
• 22:25
  Speaker 4: I think the latter.
• 22:27
  Speaker 5: I think they're gonna play good, hard, tough Jaguars football
• 22:29
  Speaker 5: against that guy. But I also think there's just a
• 22:32
  Speaker 5: little bit back there that within the rules, when you
• 22:34
  Speaker 5: get an opportunity to let them know we're here, you
• 22:37
  Speaker 5: do that. But within the rules, if you let that
• 22:40
  Speaker 5: become your focus, you're gonna lose control and then you're
• 22:43
  Speaker 5: playing against yourselves and the opponent, and nobody wins on that.
• 22:46
  Speaker 4: But it'll add to the preparation. It should what the flip.
• 22:49
  Speaker 5: We're competitive as heck, and that's our fa this is
• 22:52
  Speaker 5: our family, this is one of our brothers. So you
• 22:54
  Speaker 5: know that's my emotion is is I think excellent in
• 22:58
  Speaker 5: this game. Enthusiasm, all those things are part of it.
• 23:01
  Speaker 5: And if you haven't the right right vein if if
• 23:04
  Speaker 5: you will, it's a plus for you.
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: If I was an offensive lineman, I'd be pulling a
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: Code red. Yeah, I mean, you know, I mean, look legally, duff.
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: I mean no, no, I'm just said the same thing.
• 23:14
  Speaker 4: I'm just blocking him whistle and I knew that's where
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: he would.
• 23:18
  Speaker 6: Go, and I.
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'd be like an elephant. I mean, it'd
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: probably takes me about a decade to forget that one.
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah. But and that's how you want your team thinking.
• 23:28
  Speaker 5: I mean, now you talk about physicality and talk about
• 23:31
  Speaker 5: being tough and competitive.
• 23:33
  Speaker 4: That's what he's talking and it's well done.
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, be physical at the echo of the whistle applies
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: for this guy. Nothing wrong with that.
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: The Jaguars and the Texans coming up this Sunday only,
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: as we said, the only divisional game for the Jags
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: in the first nine weeks of the season. Have a
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: chance to put the Texans at oh to three in
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: the first three weeks of the year, and of course
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: move the Jaguars to two and one. So Mark Duffner,
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: give us your five keys for a Jaguars victory against
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: the Texas.
• 24:00
  Speaker 5: Sure, I can't be like coach kaufin no, but let
• 24:03
  Speaker 5: me just say a couple of things. One, we've got
• 24:05
  Speaker 5: to take fix ourselves. We've got to get eliminate the
• 24:07
  Speaker 5: penalties that can kind of stall us or put us
• 24:10
  Speaker 5: in backward motion if you will protect the quarterback and
• 24:13
  Speaker 5: the ball, demonstrate early in the game when we get
• 24:17
  Speaker 5: the opportunity that we're owning the line of scrimmage, whether
• 24:20
  Speaker 5: it's if we take the ball, we take down the
• 24:22
  Speaker 5: field and score like they did last week. When they
• 24:24
  Speaker 5: come out, we let them know right now with knockback
• 24:27
  Speaker 5: stopping their first drive, let them know they're in for
• 24:29
  Speaker 5: it in terms of we're winning the line of scrimmage
• 24:31
  Speaker 5: as you talked about before, and run the football against
• 24:34
  Speaker 5: this team that's going to play too deep and make
• 24:36
  Speaker 5: them pay.
• 24:37
  Speaker 4: As far as that's concerned.
• 24:39
  Speaker 5: When you get into the red zone, points we've got
• 24:41
  Speaker 5: to get points, and so we're going to get there.
• 24:45
  Speaker 5: We're going to come back with points when we play
• 24:47
  Speaker 5: against this group, Protect our quarterback and affect their quarterback.
• 24:52
  Speaker 5: I mean, it's nothing's you know, intelligent terms of what
• 24:57
  Speaker 5: I'm trying to tell you, astrological, wherever the case may be.
• 25:00
  Speaker 5: Contain their quarterback, affect their quarterback, win third down, win
• 25:04
  Speaker 5: the game.
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: It's interesting in that when's the last time the Jaguars
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: have beat the Texans here in New Ball twenty seventeen,
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: twenty seventeen. Think about that. That's seven consecutive wins for
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: the Houston Texans every year. When you get ready to
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: talk about goals for the season, Duff right at the top.
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: Win your home games, no question. Okay, that's number one,
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: Number two. Win the division because that's the direct path
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: to the playoffs. Well, guess what you got two of
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: them right here, double wammie. And on top of that,
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: against the team that has owned you in your own place.
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: It's time to change the culture on this one.
• 25:48
  Speaker 5: This is an osy game. Just like he said, we
• 25:50
  Speaker 5: owe these suckers right now. I think not only is
• 25:53
  Speaker 5: it seven or eight at home, I think it's two
• 25:55
  Speaker 5: out of that. I think they've won twelve out of
• 25:57
  Speaker 5: the last fourteen. So it's again you want to make
• 26:00
  Speaker 5: a statement. All the goals that Jeff just laid out
• 26:02
  Speaker 5: there are sitting there right in frontless go grab.
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: It's a culture changing game. If the Jaguars can get
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: it done this week against the Texans. Duff always a
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: pleasure to have you in. We'll do it again next week.
• 26:12

  Speaker 7: some of the volume and mileys that we were looking
• 26:52
  Speaker 7: at deploying, and it showed up on Sunday. You know,
• 26:56
  Speaker 7: there's definitely things to clean up about that. In turn,
• 27:00
  Speaker 7: of detailing the preparation and making sure that all the formations,
• 27:04
  Speaker 7: all the alignms, but we can help them too and
• 27:06
  Speaker 7: maybe simplify some of that stuff as well for him.

  Speaker 3: when they're there, especially.
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: Late in games.
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: The drops and the issues in the passing game were
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: you know, a stand out, the defense I couldn't get
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: off the field of that last drive and a fourth down,
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: then the p I and but they did have some positives,
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: a lot of positives out of the game too, and
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: that the big negative though.
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: That they lost.
• 28:33
  Speaker 9: Sure, I felt like I missed opportunity, right, especially when
• 28:35
  Speaker 9: you knocked your Joe Burrow out.
• 28:36
  Speaker 4: Of a game.
• 28:37
  Speaker 9: You're like, oh, maybe that's good. But of course Jake
• 28:39
  Speaker 9: Brownings now be a spice, so maybe not so much.
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: But I'm honor guy with two jaguarks.
• 28:44
  Speaker 9: We make them look real good. He'd be a starter
• 28:46
  Speaker 9: if you played.
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: If you look at his career numbers, they're they're actually
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: similar to Joe Burrow, I mean, but obviously a very
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: small samples. It's like, I don't know, I can't remember
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: exactly how many games I was actually looking at his numbers,
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: you know, in a week leading up to it, because
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: I was, you know, I mean, here's the reality every
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: time you get ready to face Cincinnati with Joe Burrow's
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: injury history, you want to take a look at the backup.
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: And so I was looking at Jake Browning's numbers, and
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: also because he was the one who led the Bengals
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: to the win a couple of years ago against the Jaguars,
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: and I was looking at his numbers and I went wow.
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: And you know, I always write the notes down, and
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: he was right there with Joe as far as like
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: the percentage wise, you know, but obviously not the experience.
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: But now Joe is having a tough time of it.
• 29:30
  Speaker 9: He is too bad.
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: Months. I hate d I mean, I mean, look, I
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: wish he was able to play this week instead of
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: being out three months, you know, because of a toe surgery.
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: I mean, you always want the best players to play
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: in the National Football League, just not when you play it.
• 29:44
  Speaker 9: Yeah, it makes it more fun when everybody's playing well.
• 29:46
  Speaker 9: But I think, I mean the thing about the takeaway
• 29:50
  Speaker 9: from me and now that we're a little farther away
• 29:51
  Speaker 9: from it, it's it's fixable things, and it feels like
• 29:57
  Speaker 9: it doesn't feel like you were lucky to even be
• 29:59
  Speaker 9: in a game. At certain points, last year when you
• 30:01
  Speaker 9: were just like, oh, that was never going to happen.
• 30:03
  Speaker 9: It was like, there's a couple missed opportunities for them late,
• 30:06
  Speaker 9: you know, going forward on fourth down, not getting that
• 30:09
  Speaker 9: drop past drop touchdowns, and then the PI penalty on
• 30:12
  Speaker 9: Travis Hunter, which if you watch it now, doesn't look that.
• 30:15
  Speaker 9: I mean, I don't know how you coach it much differently,
• 30:18
  Speaker 9: right so, you know, you never blame the refs entirely,
• 30:21
  Speaker 9: but that was part of it. And then it kind
• 30:22
  Speaker 9: of was a long drive. So there's a couple of
• 30:24
  Speaker 9: little things and that's what it always comes down to.
• 30:26
  Speaker 9: A few plays, right, a few key plays when you
• 30:28
  Speaker 9: look back on it. I think they'll be ready this week.
• 30:31
  Speaker 9: I'm excited this week. It's a divisional game. The Texans
• 30:34
  Speaker 9: really feel like the true rival to me of this
• 30:36
  Speaker 9: team right now. I know everyone's going to want to
• 30:38
  Speaker 9: say they always hate the Titans, which is fair, but
• 30:40
  Speaker 9: I think the Texans right now are kind of the
• 30:42
  Speaker 9: measuring stick at least for right now, especially a good
• 30:44
  Speaker 9: opportunity to you know, they're ow and to right now.
• 30:47
  Speaker 9: They've had trouble stopping the run so far, and the
• 30:49
  Speaker 9: first two games that they've played our run game has
• 30:52
  Speaker 9: been pretty great, so I'd like to see that matchup.
• 30:55
  Speaker 9: I'm excited.
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: I think your biggest rivalry should always be the king
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: of the Hill. Sure, okay, and right now the Texans
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: are the king of the Hill. I mean division winners
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: the last two years. You know, the Titans are always
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: have a special place in your heart.
• 31:10
  Speaker 9: Yeah to like them either, I'm just.
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: But the Texans are the team to beat right now.
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: I mean the Titans right now have a young quarterback
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: and they are a little bit in disarray when it
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: comes to their roster. I mean, if you look at
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: the first two weeks, you might say that the Culture
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: are the team to beat. But again, the division champs,
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: that's you know where they've earned that title and they've
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: earned that respect, and here's an opportunity to send them
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: back to Houston at zero to three. How good would
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: that be?
• 31:38
  Speaker 9: I'd be great.
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: I mean that would be outstanding, And that, to me,
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: that's what this game is all about. Getting a big
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: jump on them, taking a head to head game against them,
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: and then moving forward.
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: Time for the Jaguars defensive Coverage of the game presented
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: by g eh A Government Employees Health Association benefits for
• 31:58
  Speaker 3: federal employees and retirees. We take a look at Travis
• 32:01
  Speaker 3: Hunter's snap totals last week both sides of the football,
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: and his defensive numbers went up dramatically. Forty three defensive
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: snaps sixty two percent of the game, had two tackles
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: in one pass defense.
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: Last week.
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: He had three catches for twenty two yards on fifty
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: nine percent of the offensive snaps as well.
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: And this is going to.
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: Continue, I think, to fluctuate as the season goes along.
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: Depends on the opponent, depends on the week, and Travis's
• 32:28
  Speaker 3: we know, is not going to give up much in
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: the locker room when asked.
• 32:31
  Speaker 9: Well, he's not gonna tell us. I'm curious if that
• 32:34
  Speaker 9: was the plan always or I know Jarian Jones got
• 32:36
  Speaker 9: banged up in that game, if that was kind of
• 32:38
  Speaker 9: a necessity at a certain point. But it was nice
• 32:40
  Speaker 9: to see him out there on deep that's his natural position.
• 32:42
  Speaker 9: He's very natural fluid. You can put him out there
• 32:45
  Speaker 9: at corner and he knows what's going on, he knows
• 32:48
  Speaker 9: what he needs to do. So I plan as much
• 32:51
  Speaker 9: as I mean he wants to play, to play him
• 32:53
  Speaker 9: as far as I'm concerned, I think getting him involved
• 32:56
  Speaker 9: on offense has been I mean, they focus a lot
• 33:00
  Speaker 9: on Brian Thomas Junior in the last game. In the
• 33:02
  Speaker 9: first game, they rushed, you know, disproportionately more than they
• 33:05
  Speaker 9: threw the ball. So I would hope this week they
• 33:08
  Speaker 9: get him involved a little bit more because I think,
• 33:10
  Speaker 9: like we're talking about, if Travis Hunter becomes a true weapon,
• 33:12
  Speaker 9: you can spread the field out a little bit more,
• 33:14
  Speaker 9: that gives opportunity to everybody else. So I don't know
• 33:17
  Speaker 9: if it's going to be this week. I would like
• 33:19
  Speaker 9: to see that, but again, I'm starting naming people, and
• 33:21
  Speaker 9: there's all these people that need the ball, and there's
• 33:22
  Speaker 9: only so many times they're going to have the ball.
• 33:24
  Speaker 9: So I'm not exactly sure what we're going to see.
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: Now. We're kind of always been waiting for that moment
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: for Travis Hunter, and he had it last week and
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: the rest stole it.
• 33:33
  Speaker 9: It's tough.
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: I mean, to me, I thought that that was.
• 33:36
  Speaker 9: I mean, that would have been everywhere. It's fourth down
• 33:38
  Speaker 9: and for anything.
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, and he makes a hell of a play,
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: I mean, you know, and Duffner earlier he said it.
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: He called it exactly the way the way it was
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: you know, the official that was made that call had
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: the positioning to see Yoshivas the wide receiver kind of
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: falling away, and it gave the impression that maybe Travis
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: was physical and why he was falling down, and that's
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: not the case. And Travis makes a good play, and
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: you know, Travis was singling and people are like, oh,
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: Travis was shooting the money side. No he wasn't. He
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: was shooting the I got the tip on the ball.
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: That's good play, you know. And you know, I thought
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: that could have been a signature moment for him. And
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: I still want to see him catch the ball on
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: of offense and just go sure, you know, because I
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: know he's got the ability and elite speed turn around
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: and what the last time somebody started both ways was
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: Cromarti back in twenty twelve. I think it was against
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: the Jags too. Yeah, So I hope at some point,
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: you know that that happens because the reality is is
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: that his and Liam Cone said it, and we've been
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: kind of talking about it all off season. His stamina
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: is unmatched.
• 34:45
  Speaker 9: I mean, at least test it.
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: It's like that he's not going one hundred percent. You
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: can't find it. I mean, he's got he's got endless energy.
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: I don't know how he does it. But how many
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: snaps did you say? Forty three on defense, forty on offense?
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: And that's counting penalty snaps too, Okay, I believe you know,
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: so you're talking eighty something snaps. And I mean he's
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: like Foyer. Foyer's got incredible stamina two, but not to
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: the level of what what Travis is doing. It's crazy cool,
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: crazy cool. It is.
• 35:17
  Speaker 3: It certainly is. And you know what else is crazy cool?
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: Jaguars All Access.
• 35:21
  Speaker 9: Television, Jaguars All Access.
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: Yes, you've heard of it. I have who's on it tonight?
• 35:25
  Speaker 9: Trayvon Walker is with us. Who I've been seeing his
• 35:28
  Speaker 9: film everywhere, compliments on the All twenty two. I think
• 35:31
  Speaker 9: people are looking at what he did against the Bengals,
• 35:33
  Speaker 9: and we see it all the time, of course, but
• 35:35
  Speaker 9: it's nice when other people notice, Yeah, he.
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: Had he had a really strong game. Fumbled by the way,
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: you know, the arm was.
• 35:44
  Speaker 9: Strating because it looked, at least from what we saw
• 35:48
  Speaker 9: at the stadium when they were replaying, and the kind
• 35:50
  Speaker 9: of the timing that they did with it. I think
• 35:51
  Speaker 9: if they called it the other way in the field
• 35:53
  Speaker 9: they would have kept it. It didn't look to me. It
• 35:54
  Speaker 9: looked as close as it gets. And I think when
• 35:56
  Speaker 9: it's like that, they go with what their original call was.
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: So arms going forward, but the ball goes back. Guess what,
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: that's a fumble. Yeah, I don't know. I mean, it's
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: a that's a tough you know, obviously we're all wearing
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: teal colored glasses there for that call there. And but
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: you know, he had a dominant performance. He had a
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: couple of great pressures. One of the pressures led to
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: a to a pick. I think my favorite play of
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: all is uh was a tackle that he had in
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: that game. And you guys might remember, I mean extremely
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: physical tackle that he had and then also he buried
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: an offensive lineman in the pile. I mean, he's just
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: he's just he's a bully. I mean, he's like a
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: I mean it's not often that you have like a
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: true bully in the National Football League because you know,
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: everybody's big and everybody's strong. He's you know, he's just
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: stronger than most guys and bigger and more powerful than
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: most guys. He's like he literally he plays the game
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: like a bully and he crushed the right guard or
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: tackle on that pass rush. It was a backup. The
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: backup came in and I and I actually call it
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: because I saw the back of I know what his
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: style of play is and it's not very good. And
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: I said, watch for Trayvon against this guy, and Trayvon just,
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: I mean just trucked him. He just again he's a
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: bully and I love it.
• 37:11
  Speaker 9: He's our bully.
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and he won't be tonight. He'll be friendly.
• 37:15
  Speaker 9: That's the best part.
• 37:15
  Speaker 4: Is the sweetest, sweetest guy ever.
• 37:18
  Speaker 9: Know what, he's not playing facing up against you, He's
• 37:20
  Speaker 9: very sweet.
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: I think this game too has a little bit of
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: added meaning for him and Josh because you know, look,
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: everybody wants to talk about the Texans edge players. Well
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: Anders Hunter and those are two guys, you know, and
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: one guy's been doing it for ever. And uh so
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: I think that Josh and Trayvon will ask him tonight.
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: You know, is this a game that you and Josh
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: kind of take as as a personal challenge to be
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: better than the other two guys? I mean, heck yeah,
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: why not take that personal? Hey, look, any little extra
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: motivation edge that you can find along the way to
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: give yourself that little push. Take it every day, No
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: doubt about that. Seven o'clock tonight. See us tonight, Yees
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: String Sports Brewery in Springfield.
• 38:12
  Speaker 9: We will be there.
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: It's a great place. Order logs Alabama white Wings. Families
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: expecting it tonight. They have put it in an order.
• 38:20
  Speaker 9: It's gonna say, a standing order.
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: I think I think we're gonna go twenty twenty wings tonight.
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: Twenty or thirty. I'm not sure. You a lot? And
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: then what are they gonna eat? Scraps? What are you
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: gonna get tonight?
• 38:33
  Speaker 9: I'm not sure. If there's any laughter, maybe I'll get
• 38:36
  Speaker 9: some wings.
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: They may not have any of that white sauce because
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: it's white sauce. I mean, it's just I get sloppy
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: with I take the whole wing, dipping in the sauce
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: and just you know, it's just I gotta wear a bit.
• 38:45
  Speaker 9: This is why I see you after the show.
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's why I don't eat them there. Yeah, it
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: is because I would not. I would not look good
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: on TV to have Alabama.
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: Why that's advertising all over the sauce, all over your shirt.
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: Now that'll bring them in.
• 38:57

• 39:40
  Speaker 8: about since then. Everybody's different. You know, it's football. It's
• 39:45
  Speaker 8: a violent game, and obviously it's unfortunate when things like

• 41:21
  Speaker 3: Anything stand out there, A bunch of limited guys early
• 41:24
  Speaker 3: in the Summerson I mean nothing. I mean the one
• 41:27
  Speaker 3: thing is probably you know their center, you know, so,
• 41:30
  Speaker 3: which is Jake Andrews. He got hurt that first game.
• 41:33
  Speaker 3: What was his injury?
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: But so I so, maybe they are not going to
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: be a full strength along the offensive line, but if
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: he were to play, then that would be the third
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: different offensive line starting group of the year for them
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: in the same amount of game. That's hard to do.
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's it's tough. I mean, when you're hurt,
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: you hurt.
• 41:51
  Speaker 3: And that they've been injured and had made some changes
• 41:54
  Speaker 3: already with performance as well. Now that the Jaguars portion
• 41:58
  Speaker 3: of the injury report today on Tarik Brown, the cornerback
• 42:01
  Speaker 3: coming off an ankle issue from training camp, full participation
• 42:05
  Speaker 3: both Wednesday.
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: And Thursday, that's a real positive right there.
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: Yes, it is they you know, Jaguars secondary can use
• 42:11
  Speaker 3: all the help they can get, certainly, and Monteric Brown
• 42:13
  Speaker 3: would be a nice piece there. Ezra Cleveland with an
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: ankle issue. That guard, the left guard has not practiced
• 42:19
  Speaker 3: either Wednesday or Thursday.
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: That's a concern. Who would go in that spot if
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: we can't go? Uh, that's a great question. I think
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: if Wyatt Milam were back one hundred percent, I think
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: he would have been the first guy, but is limited
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: both days with a knee issue. Yeah, I don't think
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: he's going to be back this week, so I mean inside,
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: do you move? I mean Van Landon has kind of
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: been more of a tackle, so I mean, yeah, maybe
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: Tuma or Manheim. Manheim played played some guard too, So
• 42:52
  Speaker 2: we'll have to wait and see. And you know, there, look,
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: there's a lot of veteran guys that have not practiced
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: on a Wednesday and a Thursday and then practiced on
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: a Friday in a limited capacity or not at all,
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: and have been able to play in the game. I
• 43:06
  Speaker 2: think if Ezra were a young player, you would be
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: concerned and say, you know what, let's just you know,
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: let's not worry about it. Let us make him inactive.
• 43:15
  Speaker 2: We'll play somebody else. But he's a veteran guy that
• 43:17
  Speaker 2: I think that you feel confident that he can that
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: he can play without needing a certain amount of practice time.
• 43:25
  Speaker 3: Cornerback Jarryon Jones came out of the game for a
• 43:27
  Speaker 3: little while last week with a back issue.
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: Has been limited both days.
• 43:30
  Speaker 3: Been wearing that off color jersey on top for non
• 43:33
  Speaker 3: contact on the practice field. A Hunter long the tight
• 43:37
  Speaker 3: end ankle issue. Did not practice Wednesday, limited today. That's
• 43:40
  Speaker 3: a good step in the right direction for him. He
• 43:43
  Speaker 3: did that, by the way, on the opening kickoff.
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: There's not a worst play to get made on at
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: least that's what I think, because you know he had
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: to be helped kind of somewhat helped off the field
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: on the opening kickoff return. And then as a player,
• 43:57
  Speaker 2: you were probably sitting there. He was probably sitting there
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: going kill me? Are you kid me? The first play?
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: Come on?
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: Whytt mylen? We mentioned the guard with an e issue
• 44:05
  Speaker 3: still from camp limited both days. Brian Thomas Junior on
• 44:08
  Speaker 3: the list with the risk issue full participation Wednesday limited Thursday. Interesting,
• 44:14
  Speaker 3: that is curious, and then base shil toot and running
• 44:17
  Speaker 3: back with a shoulder issue limited both days. He's had
• 44:19
  Speaker 3: the non contact jersey on the practice field at least
• 44:22
  Speaker 3: during the open media time. That's the first twenty minutes
• 44:25
  Speaker 3: or so. That is the Jacksonville Jaguars injury report. Brian
• 44:28
  Speaker 3: Thomas on there. Liam Cohen mentioned the risks in nagging
• 44:32
  Speaker 3: risk problem on Monday and the press conference. It pops
• 44:35
  Speaker 3: up on the report this week for the first time,
• 44:38
  Speaker 3: but the limited designation today. Curious to see what that means,
• 44:41
  Speaker 3: why it means it, and if anything popped up in
• 44:44
  Speaker 3: practice today, well we'll see, or we'll have the two
• 44:47
  Speaker 3: Bosh men in here shortly and we can ask them
• 44:51
  Speaker 3: some questions about how that is. But the reality is
• 44:55
  Speaker 3: is that all the talk is not going to be
• 44:58
  Speaker 3: able to answer the questions till the performance does go play.
• 45:02
  Speaker 3: That's kind of the reality when you have a player
• 45:05
  Speaker 3: of that magnitude who played at the level that he
• 45:10
  Speaker 3: did this past game and the level that he has
• 45:13
  Speaker 3: been at kind of so far this year and I'm
• 45:16
  Speaker 3: talking including camp, there's the only one thing that'll kind
• 45:20
  Speaker 3: of get you through that, and that's performing at a
• 45:22
  Speaker 3: high level.
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: Again.
• 45:23
  Speaker 3: One more note by the way home game of course
• 45:26
  Speaker 3: this Sunday when the Texans are here. The construction on
• 45:29
  Speaker 3: the stadium in the future. The adjacent shipyards and normal
• 45:33
  Speaker 3: street closers around the complex may affect your traffic patterns
• 45:36
  Speaker 3: coming in, especially if you're coming in on the Main
• 45:40
  Speaker 3: Street Bridge. You won't be able to come in on
• 45:42
  Speaker 3: the Main Street Bridge to downtown because it has closed
• 45:44
  Speaker 3: northbound into downtown Jacksonville. So that will impact traffic on
• 45:49
  Speaker 3: game day, certainly to EverBank Stadium, use the Acosta, use
• 45:52
  Speaker 3: the Heart Bridge, use the Matthews Bridge as your main
• 45:55
  Speaker 3: arteries into downtown the Maine. Don't use any bridge or
• 45:58
  Speaker 3: a boat whatever something else, helicopter from for something else.
• 46:04
  Speaker 3: That Main Street will not be available inbound. It should
• 46:07
  Speaker 3: be available outbound. It has been the case every day.
• 46:10
  Speaker 3: I drive over it every day going home. We'll see
• 46:12
  Speaker 3: if that's the case on game day certainly, but I
• 46:14
  Speaker 3: remember check the gate on your ticket, on your mobile
• 46:17
  Speaker 3: ticket and enter there. You've got to go around the
• 46:20
  Speaker 3: stadium on the main concourse. Still same set up as
• 46:22
  Speaker 3: week one in that regard, but just note the traffic
• 46:26
  Speaker 3: patterns could be a little bit of an issue this
• 46:28
  Speaker 3: week now that said logs need this place packed on
• 46:32
  Speaker 3: Sunday against a division rival, the team that won the
• 46:35
  Speaker 3: division last year, the team that knocked out the quarterback
• 46:38
  Speaker 3: last year. It's a huge swing game early in this season.
• 46:42
  Speaker 3: If the Texans are three to zero, the Jaguars are
• 46:45
  Speaker 3: two and one with division games way off in the
• 46:48
  Speaker 3: future for the Jags, it's a fantastic start for this team,
• 46:51
  Speaker 3: and it would prove if they play it a certain
• 46:53
  Speaker 3: way and win it. Okay, everything they've talked about about
• 46:56
  Speaker 3: physicality and owning the division and being a different, new
• 47:00
  Speaker 3: era Jaguars football, I think this is the week to
• 47:03
  Speaker 3: prove all that well.
• 47:05
  Speaker 2: I think you're right, And look, you can still lose
• 47:08
  Speaker 2: this game and also can get on a roll and
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: it ended up being the division winner. I mean, you
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: go back to a couple of years ago, the Texans
• 47:15
  Speaker 2: started out their season zero to two and ended up
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: winning the division. I think they were ten and seven
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: that year when they won the division a couple of
• 47:22
  Speaker 2: years ago. So you can get to a lot of
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: places and start in a lot of different places. But
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: you got to send a message to this Texans team.
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: I think. I think the important thing is that this
• 47:32
  Speaker 2: is a great opportunity to go ahead and gain an
• 47:35
  Speaker 2: advantage in the division and and to change what has
• 47:39
  Speaker 2: been the way in the past. And you know you're
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: talking and using that word culture, and I think it's
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: a it's a it's an important word, and that word
• 47:49
  Speaker 2: has meaning when it comes to this again, when you
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: you look at your season's objectives, at the top of
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: the list is win your home games, and right below
• 47:59
  Speaker 2: that whin your division game, because that's the direct path
• 48:02
  Speaker 2: to the playoffs. Well, this is a double whammie. And
• 48:05
  Speaker 2: on top of that, I think this is a what
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: I would consider a culture changing opportunity to beat them
• 48:13
  Speaker 2: in your house, to send them back at zero to three,
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: and to gain some footing in the division. And then
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: you got to worry about the rest of it whenever
• 48:21
  Speaker 2: you get to that point. But I think this is
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: a big moment. I think this is a good matchup
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: for the Jaguars. They got they're playing well physically, and
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: the Texans have not found that groove offensively. So if
• 48:34
  Speaker 2: they're dynamic with their backs and their running game and
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: their screen game, and Trevor is accurate and protects the ball,
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: it would be great for him to break that streak.
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: I think of five consecutive games with an interception to
• 48:45
  Speaker 2: get a win at home and be clean and protect
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: the ball.
• 48:48
  Speaker 3: I think that's where this game is long as the
• 48:49
  Speaker 3: Jags offense against this Texans defense feels like the Jags
• 48:52
  Speaker 3: have the advantage on paper defensively against an offense and
• 48:56
  Speaker 3: struggling in Houston. But those two powers the Jags offense,
• 49:00
  Speaker 3: it's the Texans defense.
• 49:01
  Speaker 2: Get your popcorn ready? Yeah? And also the battle of
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: the head coach play calls, right, Jamiko Ryans and Liam
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: Cohen both played call plays for their offense and defense
• 49:11
  Speaker 2: or whatever you each one has, And I think that
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: that's a really interesting matchup and there's a lot of
• 49:17
  Speaker 2: familiarity there too because of who they played and what
• 49:22
  Speaker 2: the style of football is here in Jacksonville.
• 49:24
  Speaker 3: Now, all right, we're about a minute away from Jags HQ.
• 49:29
  Speaker 3: Coming up, we'll have EVP Tony Vasselli and general manager
• 49:32
  Speaker 3: James Gladstone and studio live with us to get a
• 49:35
  Speaker 3: final look at the week that was after the game
• 49:39
  Speaker 3: in Cincinnati, and of course look ahead to this Sunday's
• 49:42
  Speaker 3: matchup in Week three against the Houston Texans. The game
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: presented by uf Health, the official healthcare partner of the
• 49:48
  Speaker 3: Jacksonville Jaguars. That's coming up next, JAG's HQ on the
• 49:52
