0:05
Speaker 1: It is Tuesday, November. This is Jaguars Happy Hour and
0:13
Speaker 1: now a guy he claims he'll never again put on
0:17
Speaker 1: a cat seat and jump from the lights. Jay Peace
0:24
Speaker 1: Welcome in its Jaguars Happy Hour on this Tuesday afternoon.
0:29
Speaker 1: My name's J. P. Shadrick. We've got a busy couple
0:32
Speaker 1: hours ahead. We'll start off here on Jaguars Happy Hour
0:35
Speaker 1: with Jaguars analyst Jeff logum In here in a few moments,
0:39
Speaker 1: will recap Week twelve, Falcons twenty one, Jaguars fourteen. We'll
0:44
Speaker 1: look ahead to the next week, that's Week thirteen on
0:47
Speaker 1: the schedule. The Jags in the l A. Rams coming up,
0:50
Speaker 1: It's so Fi Stadium, and then the Urban Meyer Show
0:54
Speaker 1: on the Jaguars Radio Network at five o'clock. Five o'clock
0:58
Speaker 1: head coach. Head coach Urban Meyer will join us. Easy
1:02
Speaker 1: for me to say, and we will ask him about
1:05
Speaker 1: his name being rumored to some of these college coaching openings. Yes,
1:10
Speaker 1: we will. We'll see what he says. That's at five
1:13
Speaker 1: o'clock today on the network. Of course, the Jaguars lost
1:15
Speaker 1: to the Falcons last week to fall to two and
1:17
Speaker 1: nine Falcons one Jaguars fourteen. Jack's got to an early
1:21
Speaker 1: fourteen nothing deficit. It was twenty one three after the
1:25
Speaker 1: opening Falcons drive. At the second half, Jack's called at
1:29
Speaker 1: called Claude back in the game within seven and had
1:33
Speaker 1: the ball of the couple minutes left, but fell short.
1:36
Speaker 1: There were key special teams penalties. They were all side
1:39
Speaker 1: on a punt, leverage on a field goal, deflating for
1:42
Speaker 1: the defense. They had to come back out on the
1:45
Speaker 1: field immediately a couple of times. Urban Meyer Monday, still
1:48
Speaker 1: working on finding what this offense is going to be
1:52
Speaker 1: a lot of pausitis. Third downs was really good, I thought, Trevor.
1:55
Speaker 1: Someone asked me how Trevor played with thought he computed
1:57
Speaker 1: his tail off, and I thought, you know, third downs
1:59
Speaker 1: were excellent. We did a lot of tempo on third downs.
2:02
Speaker 1: We've got eighteen snaps of you know, a little bit
2:07
Speaker 1: more what he's used to doing, going fast and uh,
2:09
Speaker 1: the offense line did nice job in those situations. We
2:12
Speaker 1: got first downs, so that was a part of it.
2:14
Speaker 1: Execution is part of it. But really pleased with that.
2:18
Speaker 1: That's why you sustained those laundry. We had a couple
2:20
Speaker 1: of really long drive too, like to fourteen play drives.
2:23
Speaker 1: If I remember that's that coach Urban Meyer. Monday, and
2:27
Speaker 1: we welcome in Jaguars analyst Jeff Loghman. Now, good afternoon
2:30
Speaker 1: to your loves. Good afternoon. What do you think of
2:33
Speaker 1: the offense in general last week? That all the you know,
2:37
Speaker 1: the buzzword last week was creativity. How much creativity did
2:41
Speaker 1: you see? Well? I think that the big change was
2:44
Speaker 1: they started to run a little bit more, run, pass
2:46
Speaker 1: options stuff. And do I think that that's highly creative.
2:52
Speaker 1: I think it's different, and I think anything that you
2:54
Speaker 1: can do that's different sometimes to generate a little bit
2:57
Speaker 1: of rhythm is a good thing. My thought. Overall, in
3:01
Speaker 1: some rays that you scored fourteen points, yes, that's not
3:05
Speaker 1: good enough. And until you can start to score enough
3:11
Speaker 1: points to be competitive, then it's not good enough. And
3:15
Speaker 1: so you have to just keep working. I mean, there's
3:17
Speaker 1: no other way to do it. But then to find
3:20
Speaker 1: more ways or more creative ways to utilize your personnel,
3:24
Speaker 1: to find better personnel, to discover personnel, to get the
3:28
Speaker 1: current personnel to play better. I mean, that's the only
3:31
Speaker 1: things you can do. But the one thing that I
3:33
Speaker 1: can tell you JP is that this football team needs
3:37
Speaker 1: to correct some controllable things. In order for them for
3:41
Speaker 1: them to give themselves a chance, plain and simple. And
3:45
Speaker 1: that's offense, defense and special teams. I got a list.
3:48
Speaker 1: Oh boy, we've got two hours. I got a list.
3:52
Speaker 1: That got a list. Okay, yes, and and here's things
3:56
Speaker 1: that are controllable. Okay. You had an illegal formation on
4:01
Speaker 1: the interception with Marvin Jones. And I don't care if
4:03
Speaker 1: the quarterback says that I wasn't sure if it was
4:06
Speaker 1: a free player or not. It certainly impacts your thinking
4:08
Speaker 1: thinking that it maybe it could be. And I thought
4:12
Speaker 1: that Trevor threw it up. Yeah, he said after the
4:14
Speaker 1: game that he did not they were going to throw
4:16
Speaker 1: that anyway. He said he wasn't sure, but then they
4:18
Speaker 1: were going to throw it anyway. And and that's what
4:21
Speaker 1: he said. Regardless, two things happened there one either. First
4:25
Speaker 1: of all, you got a ten year wide receiver that
4:28
Speaker 1: has lined up in properly covering up a tight end.
4:32
Speaker 1: That's not hard to figure out. I mean that when
4:35
Speaker 1: you look down towards the ball as a wide receiver,
4:37
Speaker 1: you should see that there's a tight end and he's
4:40
Speaker 1: lined up on the line of scrimin So I need
4:41
Speaker 1: to be off. That's that's fundamental football. Can't have a
4:45
Speaker 1: mistake there. What happens if you threw a touchdown there,
4:48
Speaker 1: it wouldn't have been a touchdown exactly. It gets called
4:50
Speaker 1: back and on a very easily controlled play that could
4:56
Speaker 1: have been prevented so that it wouldn't have been a penalty. Okay,
4:59
Speaker 1: that's one. Uh Laurenti McCrae. All sides on a on
5:03
Speaker 1: a fourth and three on your punt return when the
5:06
Speaker 1: center raises, that's what they The center on the long
5:10
Speaker 1: snapper will raise his head up all the time. They
5:12
Speaker 1: will do things to try to get you all sides
5:16
Speaker 1: when it's less than five yards. That's awareness. And Larente
5:23
Speaker 1: is a veteran though this is not a rookie. Yeah,
5:25
Speaker 1: this is not a rookie mistake. There's no excuse for that.
5:29
Speaker 1: Uh Roy robertson hairs leveraging average, You can't commit a leverage.
5:36
Speaker 1: I mean that's that's again that goes back to fundamental football,
5:41
Speaker 1: and that you know that that's a penalty. You can't
5:43
Speaker 1: do that. Uh. Second and goal when the Jaguars were
5:48
Speaker 1: driving and you have what appeared to be Joan Taylor
5:52
Speaker 1: standing up and looking back towards the quarterback and at
5:56
Speaker 1: first people thought he was the only one that was
5:58
Speaker 1: not moving and then allows the sure and Trevor has
6:01
Speaker 1: to throw it incomplete to ogoomball On and what ogombaloally
6:06
Speaker 1: was doing on the field at that time, I mean,
6:07
Speaker 1: you can argue that a little bit because James Robinson
6:10
Speaker 1: certainly deserved to be on the field when you get
6:12
Speaker 1: to that critical juncture of the field. But that's not
6:16
Speaker 1: on Juwan. That's on the offense as a whole, because
6:20
Speaker 1: and I think, but I'm not positive, but it appeared
6:23
Speaker 1: that they were going on first sound. Okay, first sound
6:26
Speaker 1: is a quarterback gets up and he's looking around and
6:29
Speaker 1: he says ready, And as soon as he says that
6:31
Speaker 1: the ball snapped, well, he's trying to what appears to
6:35
Speaker 1: be changed the play and so he's like, EASSy, So
6:38
Speaker 1: you you kind of do something without saying something sudden
6:41
Speaker 1: because you don't want the ball to be snapped. Well,
6:43
Speaker 1: Lender snapped it, and everybody kind of was delayed starting
6:48
Speaker 1: because they all heard or saw Trevor, but Leonard didn't.
6:51
Speaker 1: So is that Lender's fault? Is that Trevor's fault? I mean,
6:54
Speaker 1: that's an organizational thing that should be corrected, okay, and
6:57
Speaker 1: then should not happen at this day age of the
7:00
Speaker 1: games on your list. Uh, you got the play towards
7:04
Speaker 1: the end of the half to where all you need
7:06
Speaker 1: is about five yards to get an opportunity at a
7:10
Speaker 1: at a you know, fifty fifty two yard field goal.
7:14
Speaker 1: And Ben Bartch gets beat in a quick fashion by
7:18
Speaker 1: um Grady Jarrett, who's a really good football player. And
7:25
Speaker 1: but the routes the quarterback doesn't have any options because
7:29
Speaker 1: all the routes are fifteen yards or more with the
7:31
Speaker 1: exception of a dump off and a crossing tight end.
7:34
Speaker 1: But the crossing tight end doesn't even get his head
7:36
Speaker 1: back around until late. I mean, you gotta have a
7:38
Speaker 1: better play call than that, because I mean, in that situation,
7:40
Speaker 1: you're trying to get five or six yards and maybe
7:44
Speaker 1: have a quick catch and then a short game lineup
7:47
Speaker 1: and kick a field goal. You don't need fifteen or
7:50
Speaker 1: twenty yards, just run something. You have ten seconds left
7:53
Speaker 1: on the clock before the half. Kind of a questionable
7:56
Speaker 1: play call there, and then ut along by the way, well,
8:00
Speaker 1: I mean, but I've been saying that these are all
8:02
Speaker 1: controllable things, right, Okay, that's that's five things that I've
8:05
Speaker 1: listed so far. You could go back and say, cam
8:08
Speaker 1: on the fall start early in the ball game, that
8:10
Speaker 1: would actually be six. Okay, first and goal at the six.
8:13
Speaker 1: John Taylor gets a hold. Okay. The very next play
8:17
Speaker 1: he gives up a pressure on the on the hold.
8:20
Speaker 1: Pull your arm out of there and belly flop him. Okay,
8:24
Speaker 1: and then you don't get the penalty clack call. Seriously,
8:26
Speaker 1: pull your arm out, had the arm across the chest. Okay.
8:29
Speaker 1: All you have to do is literally is do that
8:31
Speaker 1: and belly flop him and that you're holding your arms
8:33
Speaker 1: straight out to the side exactly. That's that. That's greaty
8:36
Speaker 1: Jared again, by the way, who again I said it
8:38
Speaker 1: is a good football player. Nevin Lawson has a hold
8:40
Speaker 1: on a third and two, puts his arms around the
8:42
Speaker 1: waist of a guy and it wasted what was a
8:45
Speaker 1: really I mean a really good pass rush by Tavan
8:48
Speaker 1: Bryant that would have got the Jaguars off the field sooner,
8:51
Speaker 1: given them more time to be able to have a drive.
8:54
Speaker 1: And then at the very end of the game you
8:57
Speaker 1: had a miscommunication very apparent between were back in wide
9:00
Speaker 1: receiver Leavisco Chennault Jr. On the fourth and ten that
9:04
Speaker 1: Labisco's running a fifteen yard route and the ball was
9:06
Speaker 1: thrown for a ten yard stick route. I mean, these
9:09
Speaker 1: are things that you got you gotta clean up. If
9:11
Speaker 1: you're gonna give yourself a chance to win, you have
9:13
Speaker 1: to clean up these things. Let's hear from the quarterback
9:17
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence about the offense the efficiency that he actually
9:21
Speaker 1: felt at times, especially later in the game. Yeah, I
9:25
Speaker 1: thought we had some good wrinkles today. Obviously, nothing is
9:30
Speaker 1: all we wanted want to come out with a win.
9:32
Speaker 1: But I think offensively we were a lot more efficient.
9:35
Speaker 1: Number one thing is finishing drives. We gotta we gotta
9:38
Speaker 1: score more touchdowns. Um So I said, that's the that's
9:41
Speaker 1: the main thing. But I did think we took a
9:42
Speaker 1: step as far as um productivity today. I thought we
9:46
Speaker 1: did a better job. Yeah, you know, and it's that's
9:50
Speaker 1: what it is. I mean, the the high water mark
9:51
Speaker 1: for points this year is twenty three and it took
9:53
Speaker 1: a couple of fifty yard long ones in London to
9:56
Speaker 1: get to twenty three points in that game. So it
9:59
Speaker 1: has been a difficult stretch here for the offense to
10:01
Speaker 1: try to get much going consistently. But you know, in
10:05
Speaker 1: a game where they were down three, they found a
10:09
Speaker 1: way to go nine plays on a touchdown drive the
10:12
Speaker 1: table on Austin touchdown and by the way, that drive
10:16
Speaker 1: right there, JP had three plays in a row that
10:18
Speaker 1: were I think fantastic. You had, you know, I think
10:21
Speaker 1: it was like a twenty one yard or to a
10:22
Speaker 1: Shaughnessy that was a really nice row by Trevor. The
10:26
Speaker 1: touchdown throw to Tavan Austin was a very nice throw,
10:30
Speaker 1: and then the two point conversion to James O'Shaughnessy. I mean,
10:34
Speaker 1: you talk about three throws that were I mean really good.
10:38
Speaker 1: I mean I'm not saying that they're elite throws, because
10:40
Speaker 1: I wouldn't consider those elite throws, but those are the
10:43
Speaker 1: kind of throws that you need to make on a
10:46
Speaker 1: consistent basis at this level if you're gonna have success
10:49
Speaker 1: as a quarterback. And I thought that was really encouraging
10:52
Speaker 1: seeing those throws. And I was like, okay, here we go. Okay,
10:56
Speaker 1: you built some confidence and you got some rhythm. You
10:59
Speaker 1: feel it about where you're at. The Atlanta Falcons are
11:02
Speaker 1: not exactly a good football team, so here you here
11:04
Speaker 1: we go. Right, this is gonna be this is a comeback,
11:07
Speaker 1: we can come back opportunity. There we go. They got
11:09
Speaker 1: in the end zone, went for two to make it
11:11
Speaker 1: a ten point game and got that and the next
11:14
Speaker 1: drive they had Robinson had a twenty six yard reception.
11:18
Speaker 1: On that drive. They go fourteen plays and about six
11:22
Speaker 1: and a half minutes and get a field goal out
11:24
Speaker 1: and that should have been a touchdown. That that goes
11:26
Speaker 1: back to the first and goal at the six where
11:29
Speaker 1: Joan Taylor has the hold on Grady Jarrett and then
11:32
Speaker 1: the very next play he gives up a pressure. You know,
11:35
Speaker 1: so you go first and goal at the six, you
11:37
Speaker 1: back it up to first and goal at the sixteen,
11:39
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, then you get a
11:41
Speaker 1: pressure after that after that that forces an incompletion. I mean,
11:44
Speaker 1: that's that's, you know, putting yourselves behind in the chains
11:49
Speaker 1: and you just can't do that. When you're an offense
11:51
Speaker 1: that's struggling to find some consistency. You gotta give yourself
11:56
Speaker 1: the best chance, and penalties don't do that. And then
11:59
Speaker 1: of course on a final possession turnover, Rundowns could not
12:02
Speaker 1: get it done. They had a couple of minutes left
12:03
Speaker 1: and had a chance with the ball in their hand
12:05
Speaker 1: to drive down the field and couldn't get that done
12:07
Speaker 1: down by seveneen the final um final by the way,
12:12
Speaker 1: just real quick. Let me let me just say this though,
12:14
Speaker 1: because you know we're talking about you know, you get
12:16
Speaker 1: the ball back. You got the ball back because the
12:19
Speaker 1: defense eventually rose up and made some play, which I
12:23
Speaker 1: give this team credit because the defense has been able
12:26
Speaker 1: to do that in a couple of games here recently. Okay,
12:29
Speaker 1: maybe hasn't started out great, Okay, the Colts game. Uh,
12:33
Speaker 1: just like this game hasn't started out great. Okay, you
12:36
Speaker 1: got Jonathan Taylor starting out and rolling downhill against them
12:39
Speaker 1: in Indianapolis, and then you get court Darryl Patterson rolling
12:42
Speaker 1: downhill against him here in this game. But the defense
12:45
Speaker 1: fought back and uh and what an amazing performance by
12:49
Speaker 1: the young Tyson Campbell and he was a big reason
12:52
Speaker 1: why they got the ball back there at the end
12:54
Speaker 1: of the game with an opportunity at tying it up. Yeah,
12:57
Speaker 1: we will will dig into the defensive performance coming up
13:00
Speaker 1: in just a little bit. It was key, obviously, as
13:03
Speaker 1: you mentioned though one three and then they had three
13:05
Speaker 1: and out six play driving a punt against him, and
13:08
Speaker 1: then eight played driving a punt. It was forced three
13:11
Speaker 1: straight punts to give the offense an opportunity. Final offensive
13:15
Speaker 1: thought here though, James Robinson. We touched on it briefly
13:18
Speaker 1: a moment ago. There were some key moments in the
13:21
Speaker 1: game where he was not on the field. And you
13:25
Speaker 1: know Urban has said this week, you know, hey, he's
13:28
Speaker 1: still a little bit, but he's not you know, he's
13:30
Speaker 1: fighting through it, which is fine. He did the game,
13:34
Speaker 1: which is fine. Look look at JP. I know where
13:36
Speaker 1: you're going with this, because you know, if he fumbles
13:38
Speaker 1: in a game, he's not he's not on the field
13:40
Speaker 1: offensively for about a sixteen play stretch Ballpark and uh look,
13:45
Speaker 1: it was the first career fumble for James Robinson. If
13:50
Speaker 1: he was not on the field because he was being punished,
13:53
Speaker 1: I don't think that's the reason why. But if that
13:55
Speaker 1: was the case, that would be ridiculous. It was his
13:58
Speaker 1: first career fumble. But I but I'm all for James
14:03
Speaker 1: Robinson is not healthy and we need to make sure
14:05
Speaker 1: that we spell him and that we also rotate in
14:08
Speaker 1: Carlos Hide. I'm all for that, but I think that
14:11
Speaker 1: there's a time and a place for when that rotation happens,
14:16
Speaker 1: and it's got to be it's got to be managed well.
14:18
Speaker 1: And when I say it's got to be managed well,
14:21
Speaker 1: when this team gets to be first and goal at
14:24
Speaker 1: the six, or you're down a score and you're in
14:28
Speaker 1: the in the red zone, you've got to find a
14:31
Speaker 1: way to make sure that James Robinson is on the field.
14:35
Speaker 1: If you're at the twenty and just starting out to drive, Okay,
14:39
Speaker 1: at your own twenty and you're just starting now to drive,
14:41
Speaker 1: I can understand that Carlos Heide is in the ball game.
14:44
Speaker 1: Told me okay, But there are key moments and a
14:47
Speaker 1: key points in a ball game to where you need
14:49
Speaker 1: to have your best running back on the field. And
14:51
Speaker 1: it's not even close. Even if he's not a percent,
14:54
Speaker 1: James Robinson is still the best running back on this
14:56
Speaker 1: football team. Proves it with the numbers we weekend and
15:00
Speaker 1: week out. I mean, uh, five point one yards to
15:03
Speaker 1: carry last week. That that catch that he made, that
15:08
Speaker 1: man one handed catch makes a defender miss. He's not
15:13
Speaker 1: a hundred percent, but he still gets up the field
15:15
Speaker 1: and he goes up the sideline. I mean he's first
15:18
Speaker 1: of all, he and I know they don't give out
15:21
Speaker 1: medals in football, and everybody plays hurt and everybody's tough,
15:26
Speaker 1: but Jane Robinson is tough man. He's tough, tough as nails,
15:30
Speaker 1: and he's a he's a scrapper, he's a fighter and
15:34
Speaker 1: uh and I got a lot of appreciation for him
15:35
Speaker 1: because I know how hard it is to play hurt
15:38
Speaker 1: and and Jane Robinson is doing exactly that and he's
15:42
Speaker 1: showing up on game day for his teammates, putting ahead
15:45
Speaker 1: on Jaguar's Happy Hour. We will flip in the defense
15:48
Speaker 1: logs when we come back, including Tyson Campbell, who had
15:52
Speaker 1: a very good game. Well, I break that down and
15:57
Speaker 1: maybe some of the reasons behind his improvement of the
16:00
Speaker 1: season is going along. P r I Productions, the official

Speaker 1: We got a latest week, short week. We're gonna go
17:02
Speaker 1: out there Friday. I think I don't know the scheduled,
17:05
Speaker 1: but typically what we do, man, and just to get
17:08
Speaker 1: off our feet, man, get our bodies back right. Get healthy,
17:11
Speaker 1: damn man. That was a big lost man. And hopefully
17:14
Speaker 1: he gets healthy soon. Man. Just pray for him and
17:17
Speaker 1: his family and uh, just stay healthy. That's Josh Allen
17:23
Speaker 1: after the game. He was mentioning Dan there. That's Dan Arnold,
17:26
Speaker 1: who's now on injured reserve for the Jaguars. Welcome back.
17:29
Speaker 1: It's Jaguars Happy Hour. J P. Shadrick, Jeff Logaman, Joe Fortunado,
17:34
Speaker 1: Brent Ree. We're glad you're along with us. We'll have
17:35
Speaker 1: the Urban Meyers Show coming up at five o'clock today.
17:38
Speaker 1: We'll hear from the Jaguars head coach. You'll have we'll
17:42
Speaker 1: try to get his thoughts on all these college coaching rumors,
17:46
Speaker 1: the carousela spinning logs. Well, when you're head coach, and
17:50
Speaker 1: that was it. Hundred ninety nine and thirty six record
17:52
Speaker 1: as a collegiate head coach, ober Meyer was, I believe
17:55
Speaker 1: with three national championships. Uh yeah, it would make sense
17:58
Speaker 1: that his name would be bandied about out If an
18:01
Speaker 1: Oklahoma or a USC or Notre Dame didn't consider trying
18:05
Speaker 1: to contact a guy like Urban Meyer, they're crazy. So
18:08
Speaker 1: I mean I get it. I mean I get why
18:09
Speaker 1: his name gets thrown out there because he has been
18:14
Speaker 1: one of the best head coaches in college football history.
18:19
Speaker 1: Simple yes, the third best winning percentage of all time.
18:24
Speaker 1: And when when a coach is struggling at the end
18:26
Speaker 1: of the NFL ranks, I mean, it's just natural that
18:29
Speaker 1: his name is going to be thrown out there. And
18:31
Speaker 1: it's just that part of the deal. So we'll hear
18:34
Speaker 1: from Urban coming up at five o'clock on the Urban
18:36
Speaker 1: Meyers Show to the Jaguars defense last week. You know,
18:40
Speaker 1: they had done a pretty good job this year of
18:42
Speaker 1: plugging up the run game. But the Falcons they didn't
18:45
Speaker 1: do a lot well offensively, but that's the one thing
18:48
Speaker 1: they did well was run the football. Against the Jaguars,
18:51
Speaker 1: Cordarrell Patterson lined up in the backfield a lot and
18:54
Speaker 1: it looked like a natural back there. Actually, I think
18:57
Speaker 1: at one point after the and I wrote this down
18:59
Speaker 1: after the first four or maybe even three Falcons drives,
19:03
Speaker 1: he had eight carries freighty four yards and two touchdowns
19:07
Speaker 1: and uh was actually actually after their fourth drive. I mean,
19:10
Speaker 1: he was impressive. I mean, he's a good football player.
19:14
Speaker 1: And it took everybody a while to kind of figure
19:18
Speaker 1: out exactly where his fit was gonna be in the
19:20
Speaker 1: National Football League because he was obviously drafted as a
19:22
Speaker 1: wide receiver and that didn't work out. And then Bill
19:25
Speaker 1: Belichick was the one who I think really discovered what
19:28
Speaker 1: his role should be, right, I mean, wasn't it Belichick
19:31
Speaker 1: then said, hey, look, we're gonna not gonna throw to
19:33
Speaker 1: throw it to a guy that has a hard time
19:34
Speaker 1: catching it. Why don't we just give it to him,
19:37
Speaker 1: you know, or or make short little throws to where
19:40
Speaker 1: he can make easier catches and then he can do
19:44
Speaker 1: what he does best, which is make people miss and
19:48
Speaker 1: yak or or what I call yaw yards after handoff.
19:52
Speaker 1: That's a new term, yacking y'all yards after handoff, which
19:59
Speaker 1: is just I totally get it, thank you, that is
20:03
Speaker 1: the same thing. It is. But he's a good player.
20:07
Speaker 1: And the Jaguars didn't. They look they weren't very good
20:09
Speaker 1: at the beginning of the ball game. And I know that,
20:11
Speaker 1: you know, coaches will sometimes come out and say, you know, well,
20:13
Speaker 1: we did a really good job in the second half. Well,
20:17
Speaker 1: the dynamics of the game changed a little bit in
20:20
Speaker 1: the second half because the Falcons felt very content to
20:24
Speaker 1: continue to try to run the ball against the fortified
20:27
Speaker 1: run defense that the Jaguars were now stack in the box,
20:30
Speaker 1: because the Falcons didn't feel like the Jaguars could score
20:34
Speaker 1: enough points to threaten. So it's a little different offensive
20:37
Speaker 1: approach by the Falcons in the second half, you know.
20:40
Speaker 1: And it was just like it was a little bit
20:42
Speaker 1: of a different approach by Seattle in the second half.
20:46
Speaker 1: And but I give the the defense credit. They fought
20:50
Speaker 1: back even though that's the terms of the game. Uh,
20:54
Speaker 1: they were able to do that. And I thought a
20:56
Speaker 1: couple of guys really stood out performance wise. I thought
20:59
Speaker 1: Tavin Brian played exceptionally well. Exceptionally well. I thought he
21:03
Speaker 1: played really well. So just he's did a really good
21:05
Speaker 1: job of getting off the blocks, being physical, some real
21:08
Speaker 1: good finishing hits on guys. The the penalty that was
21:14
Speaker 1: called on Nevin loss and Tavin Bryant had a great rush,
21:16
Speaker 1: defensive holding and talking about well he got a defensive
21:19
Speaker 1: holding call. I think it was against him exactly. Tavin
21:25
Speaker 1: Brian had a great pass rush on that. He was
21:27
Speaker 1: the reason why that that was gonna be incomplete and
21:29
Speaker 1: they were gonna get off the field, but it was
21:32
Speaker 1: negated because of the hold on Lawson, which was a
21:35
Speaker 1: penalty that shouldn't He shouldn't have did what he did,
21:38
Speaker 1: grabbed him by the hips right when I went around
21:40
Speaker 1: the waist as he's trying to run away. I mean,
21:42
Speaker 1: kind of can't do that. Uh. And then of course
21:46
Speaker 1: Tyson Campbell the play that he made the interception on.
21:50
Speaker 1: And we're actually gonna draw this up for Jaguars All
21:54
Speaker 1: Access Thursday Night, Fox thirty, Me and Brent Martin know
21:58
Speaker 1: six uh seven o'clock awesome, Ashlyn Sullivan, don't miss it.
22:02
Speaker 1: Check it out. JP. We're gonna take the interception to
22:08
Speaker 1: the football lab and draw it up. And the reason
22:13
Speaker 1: why I was the reason why it was really cool
22:16
Speaker 1: play for for a young player to make. Cover two
22:18
Speaker 1: has what we call soft spots, and a soft spot
22:20
Speaker 1: sits between a safety and a corner, you know, because
22:23
Speaker 1: the safety has to cover it the deep part of
22:26
Speaker 1: the field and then the corner has to be able
22:29
Speaker 1: to play short his short route. But he also you know,
22:33
Speaker 1: because the safety could get stressed and he's covering a
22:35
Speaker 1: big area. Sometimes that outside intermediate area is what we
22:40
Speaker 1: call the soft spot. And Tyson did a really good
22:43
Speaker 1: job of jam and a wide receiver. And then because
22:46
Speaker 1: he jammed the wide receiver, he can get his eyes
22:48
Speaker 1: back to the quarterback Matt Ryan. He sees Matt Ryan
22:51
Speaker 1: loading up to throw it to um the talented rookie
22:55
Speaker 1: tight and pits who is running the little route into
22:58
Speaker 1: that soft spot and he breaks on it. And first
23:01
Speaker 1: of all, Tyson Campbell is legit fast now, I mean
23:05
Speaker 1: he's legit fast, and how he breaks on that ball
23:09
Speaker 1: and the ground that he covers tremendous of great interception
23:12
Speaker 1: by him. But he also had a couple other past
23:15
Speaker 1: defense and he had two plays on consecutive plays like
23:18
Speaker 1: a second and ten, he ends up having a past
23:20
Speaker 1: defense and then on third down he makes that play
23:23
Speaker 1: where he's a deep third safety. He covers his guys
23:25
Speaker 1: thrown underneath and he comes up like a missile and
23:28
Speaker 1: absolutely nice. The legs out of the wide receiver underneath,
23:32
Speaker 1: makes a nice play. So, I mean, he had a
23:35
Speaker 1: fantastic game. Credit to him. And then you know, earlier
23:38
Speaker 1: in the season there were moments where he loses the
23:42
Speaker 1: ball in the air, there's catches made on him, and
23:45
Speaker 1: it's like, you know, what's gonna happen with with him?
23:50
Speaker 1: Can he get can he get better with this? Like
23:52
Speaker 1: what's the situation? And then he got dinged up a
23:56
Speaker 1: little bit blogs like and then now he's come back
23:58
Speaker 1: off the injury playing the ball a little better. I mean,
24:01
Speaker 1: that's improvement as the season goes along. And he's not
24:05
Speaker 1: he's not I mean, he's got a shoulders right, so
24:09
Speaker 1: I mean he's still playing with injury. You know, he
24:11
Speaker 1: had the injury earlier on which was what was it
24:13
Speaker 1: a an ankle or something of that nature. Was it
24:17
Speaker 1: was a lower body injury and I don't remember exactly
24:19
Speaker 1: what it was. But then he fought, fell on his
24:21
Speaker 1: shoulder and uh, and then he fights back. You know,
24:24
Speaker 1: he's playing with that, So I give him credit. He's
24:28
Speaker 1: he's a tough guy and uh, and he's a student.
24:31
Speaker 1: He learns and that's what I love about him. I
24:33
Speaker 1: mean I called him earlier the shadow. And I think
24:35
Speaker 1: also what's helped him a little bit is that this
24:38
Speaker 1: defense has transitioned a little bit and that it went
24:41
Speaker 1: from a defense that was trying to play a ton
24:43
Speaker 1: of man to we're now they're playing a little bit
24:45
Speaker 1: of a little bit more of zone. And I think
24:48
Speaker 1: that's helped him a little bit too, because he now
24:51
Speaker 1: can keep his eyes back towards the quarterback a little bit.
24:55
Speaker 1: And uh. And he's got a great skill set. He's
24:57
Speaker 1: got great clothing speed and like I said, he's legit
25:00
Speaker 1: fast and that makes all the difference in the world.
25:02
Speaker 1: And just talking to him after the game, we had
25:04
Speaker 1: him on post game on radio on Sunday. Obviously has
25:09
Speaker 1: a fantastic mindset for the game, grew up around the game.
25:13
Speaker 1: UM played for that fantastic program down to American heritage
25:17
Speaker 1: under the Curtans was there was certain the second who's
25:20
Speaker 1: now in the league also who by the way, I
25:22
Speaker 1: think he had like two picks this weekend, right, yes,
25:25
Speaker 1: good day at so they were all together like that's
25:28
Speaker 1: where he kind of came up and made his bones.
25:30
Speaker 1: And so he totally understands the mindset at what it
25:34
Speaker 1: takes to power through and play through. More of them
25:38
Speaker 1: coming up, we can we can get another one of
25:41
Speaker 1: those guys. I want to go down on any five
25:44
Speaker 1: and check it out. I guarantee you that Joe Colin
25:46
Speaker 1: would be in a car in a minute if you
25:47
Speaker 1: could go scout a guy right now, I think so. Um, So,
25:50
Speaker 1: there you have it. Let's come back. Hey, we're gonna
25:53
Speaker 1: look ahead. Lugs to the Los Angeles Rams, the super Team.
25:57
Speaker 1: We got a chance to see them Sunday afternoon or
26:00
Speaker 1: was it Sunday night that they played? Uh, it was
26:03
Speaker 1: the Sunday night game or the Sunday afternoon game they
26:05
Speaker 1: played the Green Bay Packers who got to watch him.
26:08
Speaker 1: That was awesome. Yeah. Uh. And I can tell you
26:11
Speaker 1: I would not want to be an offensive guard this
26:12
Speaker 1: week because Aaron Donald looks like that he can go
26:16
Speaker 1: for a chokehold. Uh in a matter of seconds. We
26:19
Speaker 1: will delve into all that when we return. Of course,
26:22
Speaker 1: check out the Official Jags Podcast Network. It's free on Apple, iTunes,

26:49
Speaker 1: Tuesday afternoon. J P. Shadrick, Jeff Flagerman and the Jaguars
26:53
Speaker 1: Game Day Radio Broadcaster, brought to you by Vicestar, Credit Union,
26:57
Speaker 1: do Good bank better. Well, the jack Wards will have
27:00
Speaker 1: a game day at so FI Stadium in Los Angeles
27:03
Speaker 1: is coming Sunday. It's a four oh five Eastern time kickoff.
27:07
Speaker 1: We'll go on the air at one o'clock with the
27:09
Speaker 1: public's tailgate show ahead of that game. And week third
27:12
Speaker 1: Team four or five kick It was flexed and changed,
27:15
Speaker 1: Actually was going to be four. They changed the time
27:19
Speaker 1: and they changed the network. It's on Fox this week again.
27:22
Speaker 1: All right, So the Rams, after they built the super team,
27:26
Speaker 1: they got in von Miller and they brought in Odell Beckham. Well,
27:29
Speaker 1: they haven't won a game since then. There, They've lost
27:31
Speaker 1: three in a row in Los Angeles kind of surprising,
27:34
Speaker 1: and a lot of it has to do with turnovers
27:37
Speaker 1: on offense. Um, Matthew Stafford. Uh, you know, looking at
27:41
Speaker 1: their giveaways for the season, fourteen of those, but Stafford
27:44
Speaker 1: over the last three weeks has five interceptions off of it. Well,
27:48
Speaker 1: it's been a big part of it. But you know,
27:50
Speaker 1: look Sean mcveigh's offense. If you look at the one
27:53
Speaker 1: key number that I would focus in on, right there
27:55
Speaker 1: is rushing offense and that's yards per game, and that
28:01
Speaker 1: I think is you know, the Sean McVeigh offenses in
28:03
Speaker 1: the past that have been really good, think of Todd
28:05
Speaker 1: Gurley play action and Jared Golf being really good with
28:09
Speaker 1: that play action throwing the ball down the field, and
28:11
Speaker 1: they haven't had that. So it's put more pressure on
28:14
Speaker 1: Matt Stafford. And Matt Stafford has been really good now,
28:17
Speaker 1: uh in its entirety. I mean there's been a lot
28:20
Speaker 1: of pressure on him. But his Green Bay game was
28:24
Speaker 1: I thought pretty good. But he doesn't look completely healthy.
28:28
Speaker 1: But you know, there's a lot of pressure on him.
28:31
Speaker 1: He is essentially a lot of pressure on being the
28:33
Speaker 1: offense he's fourth and rating, he's fourth in yards per tempt.
28:37
Speaker 1: His completion percentage is sixteenth, but his attempts or seventh
28:41
Speaker 1: in the league. That means he's throwing the ball a
28:42
Speaker 1: ton and that's a lot to ask of a quarterback.
28:46
Speaker 1: And and they had how many injuries did they have
28:48
Speaker 1: at the running back position before they even got started
28:51
Speaker 1: with the season. They've had some things go on over
28:54
Speaker 1: there in the health world. But yeah, the running back
28:57
Speaker 1: has been a big health concern for them right at
29:01
Speaker 1: the onset of the season. And Odell Beckham Jr. Has
29:05
Speaker 1: been a non factor. Got a touchdown last week, Yeah,
29:08
Speaker 1: but it was I mean overall, I mean he had
29:11
Speaker 1: a touchdown, right, and then he got he got dinged
29:14
Speaker 1: and and all of a sudden, he's got this back
29:16
Speaker 1: thing going on against Green Bay and he's got a
29:19
Speaker 1: heat pad on it, and you can see he's trying
29:21
Speaker 1: to wear the heat pad, and then after the heat
29:23
Speaker 1: pad hunt and then he's taking it off to run
29:25
Speaker 1: out and be the third wide receiver on the field.
29:28
Speaker 1: And look, it takes time, as we're seeing here in Jacksonville.
29:31
Speaker 1: It takes time for quarterbacks and wide receivers to develop
29:34
Speaker 1: some chemistry. And just because Odell Beckham has been great
29:38
Speaker 1: in the past. I mean, the reality is he's been
29:40
Speaker 1: great in the past and wins. The last time he
29:41
Speaker 1: was great, yeah, I mean his last thousand of our
29:43
Speaker 1: season was twenty nineteen. It's it's a little while ago.
29:46
Speaker 1: I gotta get back, and he's coming back from an
29:48
Speaker 1: A C. L reconstruction, So it's a it's a it's
29:52
Speaker 1: a working progress. And they lost what was the wide
29:55
Speaker 1: receiver that they had, Robert Woods. Robert Woods who really
30:00
Speaker 1: good wide receiver. But the main guy is Cooper cup who,
30:04
Speaker 1: by the way, is first in reception, first in yards,
30:07
Speaker 1: tied for first and touchdown everything. Yeah, you're like fifteen
30:12
Speaker 1: times a game, Like it's it's crazy because he's it's
30:14
Speaker 1: not like the field either, it's kind of short, and
30:17
Speaker 1: he makes plays and there he goes. Yeah, he's a
30:19
Speaker 1: he's a good football player from the football powerhouse of
30:23
Speaker 1: Eastern Washington. The crazy thing is that when he rolled
30:27
Speaker 1: in as a rookie, he was good. I mean he
30:30
Speaker 1: was good right out of the out of the out
30:32
Speaker 1: of the gate. So he is a guy that you
30:34
Speaker 1: definitely have to contend with, and he is the main
30:36
Speaker 1: focal point of their passing attack and hopefully the Jaguars
30:40
Speaker 1: can find a way to negate some of his some
30:43
Speaker 1: of his great plays that he makes. That would be
30:46
Speaker 1: uh a easy ideal, No, that would be ideal, though
30:48
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a tough one though with all those
30:50
Speaker 1: other guys around them. It's a weird organization to JP. Okay,
30:55
Speaker 1: when I when I say weird, they've they essentially have
30:59
Speaker 1: traded away. They don't have many draft picks left. I mean,
31:03
Speaker 1: let's let's needs like, I don't need these picks, all
31:06
Speaker 1: high draft picks. They literally they don't put a lot
31:10
Speaker 1: of value on them. And this team has been the
31:14
Speaker 1: beneficiary of one of the trades with gentlemen Ramsey, and
31:17
Speaker 1: things haven't exactly worked out great in that department yet
31:21
Speaker 1: for this team. Hopefully it will. But right now I
31:25
Speaker 1: will say that the Rams have gotten a better into
31:27
Speaker 1: that deal. But then again, they've had to pay Galen
31:29
Speaker 1: Rames a ton of money. Well think about this, right,
31:32
Speaker 1: so they had to build a brand new stadium five
31:36
Speaker 1: billion dollars, right so five stadium, five billion billion right
31:41
Speaker 1: um in l A that marketplace. Just hearing people talk
31:46
Speaker 1: about it who have been out there, have covered the
31:48
Speaker 1: league there and other sports there, you better have some
31:51
Speaker 1: flash and pizzazz about you. That's that kind of town.
31:55
Speaker 1: You better have some superstar power on your team. You
31:58
Speaker 1: will be lost in the shuff. You will get tenants. Right,
32:02
Speaker 1: So they're trying to do that. And oh, by the way,
32:05
Speaker 1: I don't think they'd love anything more than to host
32:08
Speaker 1: a super Bowl at their own place while they're playing
32:10
Speaker 1: at it like the Bucks did last Well, yeah, well
32:12
Speaker 1: this is why that's where the super Bowl is gonna
32:14
Speaker 1: be at his so Fi Stadium this come and winter.
32:16
Speaker 1: So have all that together, get the biggest superstar base
32:20
Speaker 1: you can put it all into this year next and
32:23
Speaker 1: then Okay, that's where they are right now. Yeah, there's
32:27
Speaker 1: there's a lot of things going on with the l
32:29
Speaker 1: A franchise and and they all just don't pertain to
32:33
Speaker 1: what's happening on the field, that's right, because she just
32:37
Speaker 1: had this settlement settlement with that happened with the St.
32:42
Speaker 1: Louis the city of St. Louis, and and there people
32:46
Speaker 1: because of the relocation of the Rams and stand cronky
32:49
Speaker 1: and and uh liability, et cetera. And I think the
32:53
Speaker 1: award was seven ninety million dollars. And so now the
32:57
Speaker 1: question is to stand Cronkey, the Rams owner, as he
33:00
Speaker 1: foot the entire bill. There was a report by The
33:02
Speaker 1: New York Times today that he would or would all
33:05
Speaker 1: the other owners have to share in that. Yeah, I
33:08
Speaker 1: was JP on Sunday. I was just sitting there before
33:13
Speaker 1: the game, and you know, you watch the warm ups
33:15
Speaker 1: and such and on the field you see Author Blank
33:18
Speaker 1: and Shot Khan talking and I think they sit together
33:21
Speaker 1: on the finance committee or one of the committee, and
33:25
Speaker 1: I was going, I'll bet you they might be talking
33:29
Speaker 1: about this seven h ninety million dollar It's gonna come
33:33
Speaker 1: up in conversation. I mean, I mean you think they
33:38
Speaker 1: already number one. Hey, Author, you know we're not gonna
33:43
Speaker 1: I mean, we're not gonna pay any of this money.
33:45
Speaker 1: This has got to be all on stand. I mean,
33:47
Speaker 1: he was the one that decided to take the team
33:50
Speaker 1: and move it to l A. So you know that's
33:54
Speaker 1: one of those that's um, it sounds like it's starting
33:57
Speaker 1: to wind down. That's a good thing for the conversation
34:00
Speaker 1: is out of my ballpark. I can tell you too. Well.
34:03
Speaker 1: We can talk defense, and this is a defense to
34:06
Speaker 1: talk about. And you start with Aaron Donald up front.
34:10
Speaker 1: They are stout on the defensive line. They've got outside
34:14
Speaker 1: linebackers who can rest the pasture, rush the passer. They
34:18
Speaker 1: take the ball away a little bit, twelve interceptions for
34:21
Speaker 1: the year. They've got back end safeties are really good.
34:24
Speaker 1: Jalen Ramsey's there. You'll hear him before you see him,
34:28
Speaker 1: and then when you see him. He is a first
34:30
Speaker 1: team All Pro caliber player, was last season and having
34:34
Speaker 1: a pretty good year again this year. Are they really
34:36
Speaker 1: that good though? I mean, I mean, look at the
34:39
Speaker 1: numbers they give up points. I mean they they're giving
34:42
Speaker 1: up points, which is the most important number, twenty one.
34:44
Speaker 1: And with you, when you would have what many would
34:47
Speaker 1: view as a star studied cast with Aaron Donald and
34:50
Speaker 1: Von Miller and Jalen Ramsey, you would think top five, right,
34:54
Speaker 1: I mean top five come to mind, it should be
34:57
Speaker 1: with all those guys, right, and they're not there? Um,
35:02
Speaker 1: could they be there? Maybe? Could they find some chemistry
35:06
Speaker 1: and gel here down the stretch maybe, But right now
35:11
Speaker 1: it's not like they're unbeatable and here here's their kryptonite.
35:15
Speaker 1: I think that the entire for the entire team physical nous.
35:21
Speaker 1: If you go in l A and you play good
35:25
Speaker 1: old fashion smash mouth football, you can beat this team.
35:30
Speaker 1: I mean seriously, I mean, you can beat this team
35:32
Speaker 1: if you get physical and play smash mouth. It might
35:34
Speaker 1: be that that's San Francisco to a t. That's why
35:37
Speaker 1: they always kind of play them pretty well. San Francisco
35:40
Speaker 1: did it. Uh, the Green Bay Packers a little bit
35:44
Speaker 1: more on the arm of Aaron Rodgers, but they were physical.
35:47
Speaker 1: They were physical. I mean, look, Aaron Donald starts choking people.
35:52
Speaker 1: He's mad, he's getting mad, so go in there be physical.
35:59
Speaker 1: Shocked the world. He did it against the Bills, beat
36:01
Speaker 1: them nine to six. Are you gonna be able to
36:03
Speaker 1: hold the Rams too to nine points? I don't know
36:06
Speaker 1: about that, but you know, look, you can beat teams
36:10
Speaker 1: when you out physical teams. And that's got to be
36:12
Speaker 1: the mindset of this football team when they go to
36:14
Speaker 1: l A. Aaron Donald is a multiple NFL Defensive Player
36:18
Speaker 1: of the Year when that's a whole segment of conversation worth.
36:22
Speaker 1: I mean, really, it really is. I mean, the guys
36:24
Speaker 1: won it three times, seventeen, eighteen, and twenties, six time
36:27
Speaker 1: first team All Pro. I mean, he's i mean already
36:30
Speaker 1: building a case for Canton still relatively early in his career,
36:35
Speaker 1: and it starts here. You have to get a bunch
36:39
Speaker 1: of different guys around him, planning for him all day long,
36:42
Speaker 1: and he can move around. He has the flexibility to
36:45
Speaker 1: do that well. He's a three technique for the most part,
36:48
Speaker 1: and he can play on either side, and he can
36:50
Speaker 1: also line up and play defensive end. But that's not
36:52
Speaker 1: where his strength is. He is literally it's he's like
36:55
Speaker 1: a Tasmanian devil, you know though the old Loony tunes. Yes, exactly,
37:00
Speaker 1: it's exactly what he is like. And he gets going
37:03
Speaker 1: and he's just unstoppable. He he's only six one ish
37:07
Speaker 1: two pounds, but he's I mean, absolutely sculpted, two d
37:11
Speaker 1: eighty pounds, super strong. He's got speed, quickness, power, everything
37:16
Speaker 1: you can ask. He's a smart player. He sets things up,
37:19
Speaker 1: he bates players. He is by far the most disruptive
37:24
Speaker 1: defender in the National Football League, number one. I don't
37:29
Speaker 1: think anybody else is in his category. You know, back
37:31
Speaker 1: in the day, you had a Reggie White and a
37:34
Speaker 1: Bruce Smith, and they're kind of the conversation who was
37:37
Speaker 1: more disruptive. There's no I don't think there's any conversation
37:40
Speaker 1: that this guy is number one on the list. I mean,
37:43
Speaker 1: even J. J. Watt Wood, what was in his prime? Well,
37:45
Speaker 1: I would say it was Myles Garrett would probably be
37:49
Speaker 1: the only one that would be and then that that
37:52
Speaker 1: would probably be a good argument. But Myles Garrett and
37:54
Speaker 1: Air and Not right now are the two most disruptive
37:56
Speaker 1: defenders in the National Football League. And when you watch
37:59
Speaker 1: how team essentially prepare or what they do to face
38:03
Speaker 1: Aaron Donald, they slide the protection over there, and everybody
38:08
Speaker 1: that maybe have that has an extra second or an
38:11
Speaker 1: extra arm, it's always leaning towards Aaron Donald. It's that good.
38:16
Speaker 1: And with von Miller there, I'm gonna tell you, honestly,
38:22
Speaker 1: what I'm seeing, I'm not seeing the von Miller of
38:24
Speaker 1: old well the moment even that, right, you got him
38:29
Speaker 1: on one side, Leonard Floyd's on the other side at
38:31
Speaker 1: outside line backer. You don't want to be in third
38:34
Speaker 1: and eight against these guys when those two out there,
38:36
Speaker 1: no matter the level where they may or may not
38:39
Speaker 1: be right well, and they can be a lot of
38:40
Speaker 1: people say, well, you can put them on the same
38:41
Speaker 1: side and boy they become really a force. Then well
38:44
Speaker 1: it's actually you want them on opposite sides because then
38:48
Speaker 1: you're most teams will say, if we got Aaron Donald
38:51
Speaker 1: on one side and Von Miller on the other, we're
38:54
Speaker 1: gonna slide the protection to Aaron Donald, put the center
38:56
Speaker 1: over there to help out, and then you could always
38:59
Speaker 1: maybe have a back chip on Von Miller if need be.
39:02
Speaker 1: But again, like I said, von Miller is not the
39:04
Speaker 1: Von Miller of old. I mean, he's still a very
39:07
Speaker 1: good player, and at times he he can be dominant,
39:10
Speaker 1: but he's not Aaron Donald where every play he is dominant,
39:14
Speaker 1: because that's what Aaron Aaron Donald is right now. And
39:17
Speaker 1: this past game, Grady Jarrett gave fits to the Jaguars defense.
39:22
Speaker 1: Fits he had. Uh. He beat Cam Robinson one time
39:27
Speaker 1: on an inside play that was the result of the
39:29
Speaker 1: cause fumble on James Robinson on a little combo block
39:33
Speaker 1: with with Norwell. Norwell had to come off to go
39:36
Speaker 1: to the linebacker and Grady Jarrett or what that one.
39:39
Speaker 1: Grady Jett was one of the other defensive tackles that was.
39:42
Speaker 1: But Grady Jarrett gave up gave fits to BArch in
39:45
Speaker 1: the ball game on the uh, the hail Mary pass
39:52
Speaker 1: that was Grady Jarrett. He makes Barts miss gets in
39:54
Speaker 1: the backfield and Trevor is running first life can't even
39:56
Speaker 1: throw the ball down the field. So if you're the Rams,
40:01
Speaker 1: after what you saw the Falcons do with Grady Jarrett
40:06
Speaker 1: on Ben BArch, when you have the opportunity to choose
40:11
Speaker 1: which side Aaron Donald goes, my guesses he will go
40:14
Speaker 1: over to ben Barge. All right, strap up, So Ben
40:20
Speaker 1: BArch is gonna have he's got a great test this week,
40:23
Speaker 1: and then he'll have help, I'm sure he will. Linda
40:26
Speaker 1: will be going his way and if Aaron Donald is
40:29
Speaker 1: over there, and that's how that's life of Aaron Donald.
40:31
Speaker 1: Aaron Donald. I would love to know how many single
40:34
Speaker 1: blocks Aaron Donald has gotten this year. Guarantee it ain't. Yeah,
40:37
Speaker 1: probably on one hand, you can count those. We'll come back.
40:41
Speaker 1: We'll look at the FC South standings. Probably know how
40:43
Speaker 1: that's going though already. If you're looking for the m
40:45
Speaker 1: v P of the truck game, then look no further
40:47
Speaker 1: than Foard F one fifty. Loaded with impressive capability and
40:51
Speaker 1: designed to dominate, work play and everything in between. This
40:55
Speaker 1: truck makes tough look easy, no wonder. It is the
40:58
Speaker 1: official truck of the NFL and proud partner of your
41:01
Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars. Coming up at five o'clock the Urban Meyers
41:04
Speaker 1: Show on the Jaguars Radio Network. Will ask Urban about
41:09
Speaker 1: his name being rumored to some of these college coaching
41:12
Speaker 1: openings that's coming up in just a few minutes. And
41:14
Speaker 1: this is Jaguars Happy Hour on the Jaguars Digital Network.
41:19
Speaker 1: Welcome back. It's Jaguars Happy Hour on a Tuesday afternoon.
41:23
Speaker 1: We're a little over eight minutes away from the Urban
41:26
Speaker 1: Meyers Show on the Jaguars Radio Network, and here on
41:29
Speaker 1: Tintin Excel, we'll hear from you guessed it, head coach
41:33
Speaker 1: Urban Meyer. He'll join us as he always does, and
41:36
Speaker 1: we'll get his thoughts. We'll ask him about those college
41:39
Speaker 1: coaching openings in his name all over Twitter rumors and
41:44
Speaker 1: then they still message boards. I bet you they're I'm
41:46
Speaker 1: there too. That was that was a thing like in
41:48
Speaker 1: the early two thousand's asking me, I don't know, Yeah,
41:51
Speaker 1: maybe you're the wrong person to ask, but his name
41:54
Speaker 1: maybe bandied about and thrown around by a lot of folks.
41:57
Speaker 1: Will see what he has to say about, uh, those rumors.
42:01
Speaker 1: But um, you know here we are two and nine.
42:03
Speaker 1: The Jaguars this week headed to Los Angeles Veterans choose
42:07
Speaker 1: v A for the benefits you've earned. Visit choose dot
42:10
Speaker 1: v A dot com. Let's take a look at the
42:13
Speaker 1: Baptist Health Injury Report Baptist Health changing Healthcare for good
42:17
Speaker 1: and j two Fell is on the injured reserve list
42:21
Speaker 1: designated for return. That was as of last week, so
42:24
Speaker 1: the clock is well underway for him. Dan Arnold placed
42:28
Speaker 1: on injured reserve today and he joined Jamal agnew a
42:32
Speaker 1: j Can d J. Chark and who actually charked today,
42:36
Speaker 1: had a Instagram video in the the treadmill tub that's
42:41
Speaker 1: in the training room and there's that's good signing. Well,
42:44
Speaker 1: he was in a walking boot on game day progress
42:50
Speaker 1: injured reserve with dan Arnold. That hurts, Yes, it does. Uh.
42:55
Speaker 1: You know, when you look at a catch percentage, every
42:58
Speaker 1: quarterback needs to have somebody that's reliable, that's an easy target,
43:03
Speaker 1: what we call like a security blanket. And more times
43:06
Speaker 1: than not, that position is either a running back or
43:10
Speaker 1: it's a tight end. And for Trevor Lawrence, dan Arnold
43:15
Speaker 1: has been the second highest catch percentage target that that
43:20
Speaker 1: Trevor has had. Number one is James Robinson. Running Backs
43:24
Speaker 1: are mostly right at the top because it's an easy
43:27
Speaker 1: completion and maybe like a dump off for the quarterback
43:30
Speaker 1: or whatever. But losing Dan Arnold, that's a that's one
43:33
Speaker 1: of you got one of your guys, you know that
43:35
Speaker 1: high catch percentage guys that you lose, and that makes
43:38
Speaker 1: it more difficult. Now does it help having James O'Shaughnessy back,
43:42
Speaker 1: It helps, But James O'Shaughnessy is not Dan Arnold. Arnold
43:45
Speaker 1: stepped in and right away and became the guy that
43:50
Speaker 1: he leaned on, obviously on offense. So he's done, which
43:52
Speaker 1: is unfortunate and not done for the year officially. But
43:56
Speaker 1: the timetable is like you know, four to six weeks.
43:59
Speaker 1: It depends. I mean typically like on a on a
44:02
Speaker 1: mild m c L tear one to two, on a
44:07
Speaker 1: like a medium grade two to four, and then for
44:11
Speaker 1: you know, pretty severe when it can be four to six.
44:13
Speaker 1: You know. So I mean he has a chance coming back,
44:15
Speaker 1: that you know. But then again, you know, towards the
44:18
Speaker 1: end of the season, what's the record you want to
44:20
Speaker 1: fight back and do it? You know that that all
44:22
Speaker 1: can come into play. Well, I mean, you're for you're
44:23
Speaker 1: a football player, and you get paid to play, So
44:26
Speaker 1: I mean I don't think a lot of people would say,
44:28
Speaker 1: well does that come into it? If if there's a
44:30
Speaker 1: risk of a further injury or that he's not a
44:33
Speaker 1: hundred percent healthy, then the answer would be, you don't
44:35
Speaker 1: play him if you're a d percent. If you're a
44:37
Speaker 1: hundred percent and you're ready to go, then then then
44:39
Speaker 1: you go. It's just part of part of the game.
44:41
Speaker 1: Now if he's you know, if he's and you're not
44:44
Speaker 1: going to you're not going to the playoffs, And you say, okay, well,
44:47
Speaker 1: you know we're not going to the playoffs, So should
44:49
Speaker 1: we risk it when he's not a hundred percent? No,
44:52
Speaker 1: But if he's a hundred percent before the end of
44:54
Speaker 1: the year, then he should play. AFC South standings through
44:59
Speaker 1: week twelve, the entire division lost On Sunday, uh So
45:03
Speaker 1: Tennessee now eight and four, Indie six and six cannot
45:07
Speaker 1: gain ground. They blew the game against Tampa Houston to
45:11
Speaker 1: a nine and the Jaguars to a nine. At the bottom.
45:14
Speaker 1: The Colts had a chance to gain some ground, but
45:17
Speaker 1: Leonard Fournette got him and scored four total touchdowns in
45:20
Speaker 1: that game. For tender who had him in fantasy, I
45:22
Speaker 1: don't know, man I don't know. It wasn't me. It
45:26
Speaker 1: was me. A great job. Way to go, Tennessee. If JP,
45:32
Speaker 1: if you had Leonard Fournette, you would be saying Leonard
45:35
Speaker 1: four nett st Well, I would I would move forward
45:39
Speaker 1: to Sunday when we do that segment again, That's what
45:41
Speaker 1: I would do. Yeah, would be bragging about it already
45:46
Speaker 1: with I'm not showing off my hand to anybody. No, No,
45:49
Speaker 1: I'm right here close to the vest. I don't. I
45:53
Speaker 1: don't brag or gloat or anything like that. I certainly don't.
45:57
Speaker 1: JP doesn't brag or gloat or any No, not at
46:00
Speaker 1: none of the above. It just it got really deep
46:02
Speaker 1: in here. It did not from like a sixties deep perspective.
46:08
Speaker 1: Oh not, We're not. Yeah, anyway, Irban Meyer show is
46:11
Speaker 1: coming up. That's it. About four minutes from now, looking
46:15
Speaker 1: forward to hearing from the coach. I mean this is
46:17
Speaker 1: you know, they've lost three in a row now, and
46:19
Speaker 1: the offense still can't get in the end zone too much.
46:22
Speaker 1: The defense had some early struggles last week and but
46:25
Speaker 1: then gave him an opportunity late to at least try
46:28
Speaker 1: to claw back in the game. Too little, too late,
46:30
Speaker 1: and now with six games to go and a tough
46:33
Speaker 1: couple of road trips coming up. L A this week,
46:35
Speaker 1: Tennessee next, they're up against it here. Well, you gotta
46:38
Speaker 1: worry about this game in this game first, and you
46:40
Speaker 1: worry about the last game and trying to correct the
46:43
Speaker 1: mistakes that you had in that last game and move forward.
46:45
Speaker 1: I don't you know, Look, the reality is there's not
46:47
Speaker 1: gonna be a whole lot of different answers. I mean,
46:49
Speaker 1: you just you keep going to work, and you also
46:51
Speaker 1: try to to improve in every area that you can.
46:55
Speaker 1: And right now, there's there's not there's not time to
46:59
Speaker 1: institute major change. There's just not. It's just your in
47:02
Speaker 1: season and you try to to grind it out and
47:04
Speaker 1: get better and be a little bit more creative and
47:08
Speaker 1: try to catch a team a little bit off balance
47:10
Speaker 1: here and there to where maybe you can start to
47:12
Speaker 1: find a little bit of a rhythm offensively. But I
47:15
Speaker 1: do know this the this season, at the very beginning,
47:20
Speaker 1: it was about Trevor Lawrence, and it still remains about
47:23
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence and Trevor Lawrence getting better. There's so many
47:26
Speaker 1: good things that I see from him. But the reality
47:30
Speaker 1: is that you want to start to see the progression
47:32
Speaker 1: and performance here at the end of the season. And
47:35
Speaker 1: this game this weekend will be the first one in December.
47:39
Speaker 1: And we always talk about you want team to play
47:41
Speaker 1: their best football in December. Okay, well it's December. Here
47:44
Speaker 1: we go. This team needs to play better, play better.
47:47
Speaker 1: It's a tough task this week. That's an l a
47:49
Speaker 1: Rams team that's lost three in a row and they
47:52
Speaker 1: need to stay in the playoff chase in the NFC.
47:55
Speaker 1: They have this superstar team and this massive stadium and
47:58
Speaker 1: all this pressure at hype and everything that goes with it,
48:02
Speaker 1: and they've lost three in a row and you know
48:04
Speaker 1: they're gonna be up for it. Oh yeah, they'll be ready,
48:07
Speaker 1: let me make no mistake about it. They think that
48:09
Speaker 1: that's that's where you think you got a little bit
48:11
Speaker 1: of an advantage. The the Rams are are angry, they
48:16
Speaker 1: think that they're They probably think that they're gonna be
48:18
Speaker 1: able to handle this Jaguars football team no problem, just
48:21
Speaker 1: like probably how the Bills came down to Jacksonville thinking, oh, yeah,
48:24
Speaker 1: this is a this is a win. Well it wasn't
48:27
Speaker 1: a win. Jaguars traveling, Oh they gotta come all the
48:30
Speaker 1: way across the country to playoffs. You know we can
48:33
Speaker 1: handle this football team. Okay, Well, it's times hit him
48:36
Speaker 1: in the mouth, play a little smash mouth, Carlos Hide,
48:39
Speaker 1: James Robinson, More of James Robinson, by the way, especially
48:43
Speaker 1: at critical moments. Then Carlo, I should have said James
48:47
Speaker 1: Robinson first. I don't want to. I don't want to
48:49
Speaker 1: change in the depth chart, James Robinson first, and then
48:53
Speaker 1: Carlos Hide, and then more James Robinson. Is it strange
48:57
Speaker 1: that I'm kind of looking forward to what jay and
49:00
Speaker 1: has to say tomorrow? Or is that just crazy of me?
49:03
Speaker 1: I think it's crazy. And you, yeah, if if you
49:05
Speaker 1: actually think that whatever Jalen has to say is of
49:08
Speaker 1: any kind of importance, yeah, I think that's pretty crazy.
49:11
Speaker 1: Jalen can be out in space sometimes with some of
49:15
Speaker 1: the things that he says, and sometimes he can be
49:18
Speaker 1: very thoughtful and uh and reflective and intelligent and and
49:25
Speaker 1: sometimes what he says is right on the money. But
49:27
Speaker 1: most times when it comes to this team, I'm not
49:31
Speaker 1: gonna listen to him. Let's just hope his backs feeling fine.
49:34
Speaker 1: This week, the Urban Meyer Show is coming up. We'll
49:37
Speaker 1: here from the Jaguars head coach. That'll do it. For
49:40
Speaker 1: Jaguars Happy Hour on this Tuesday afternoon, the Jaguars Digital
49:44
Speaker 1: Network
