0:02
Speaker 1: It's Thursday, October. This is Jaguars Happy Hour and now
0:12
Speaker 1: Citrus Distiller's most experienced Taste Hester and poster boy Jay Peace.
0:20
Speaker 1: That's me, Welcome in. It is Jaguars Happy Hour and
0:24
Speaker 1: a busy two hours ahead on this Thursday afternoon. It's
0:27
Speaker 1: Week six. We'll hear from analyst Jeff Lagoman coming up
0:30
Speaker 1: ahead of the Jaguars Colts matchup at Lucas Oil Stadium
0:33
Speaker 1: in Indianapolis this Sunday at one o'clock kickoff time. Quarterback
0:37
Speaker 1: play a big topic around the team and the fan
0:41
Speaker 1: base this week after seven giveaways from the quarterback over
0:46
Speaker 1: the last two games. And then at five o'clock the
0:49
Speaker 1: Doug Peterson Show, we'll hear from the Jaguars head coach
0:52
Speaker 1: at five o'clock today on the Jaguars Radio Network and
0:54
Speaker 1: get his thoughts about how they're working through some of
0:57
Speaker 1: the issues at quarterback and the offense as a whole lately.
1:02
Speaker 1: The defense playing pretty well. Planted to get to there.
1:04
Speaker 1: The Jaguars continued preparation for the Week six game against
1:08
Speaker 1: the Colts Today. It was coordinator Day at the podium,
1:11
Speaker 1: as it is every Thursday. Offensive coordinator Press Taylor knows
1:16
Speaker 1: this offense is leaving opportunities out there on the field,
1:19
Speaker 1: and it goes deeper than just a quarterback. The last
1:22
Speaker 1: two weeks, we haven't played to the standard we've set
1:24
Speaker 1: for ourselves as an offense. That's Trevor as well as
1:27
Speaker 1: a lot of other people, coaches included, were included in that.
1:30
Speaker 1: We have not um, you know, we have not met
1:32
Speaker 1: that that standard that we've set for ourselves, and that's
1:34
Speaker 1: why we'll come up shore as an offense last two weeks.
1:36
Speaker 1: So we all take responsibility to that. Um. You know,
1:39
Speaker 1: there's there's throws, there's decisions. Trevor wants back just like
1:41
Speaker 1: there's decisions. A lot of guys want back play calls,
1:44
Speaker 1: we want back play designs, we want back suggestions, all
1:47
Speaker 1: that type of stuff. So you know, we're all in
1:49
Speaker 1: this thing together. Earlier this week, quarterback Trevor Lawrence on
1:53
Speaker 1: the balance of taking a check down instead of throwing
1:56
Speaker 1: deeper down the field into a risky situation. There's a
1:59
Speaker 1: deep answer for them into how to keep the offense
2:01
Speaker 1: alive it on the field. You're never gonna be perfect
2:04
Speaker 1: on that, you know, as a quarterback, you're gonna you're
2:07
Speaker 1: gonna make some mistakes. But it's what we talked about,
2:10
Speaker 1: especially yesterday, and that's kind of my goal just moving forward.
2:14
Speaker 1: And I've always thought about it, but especially now after
2:16
Speaker 1: the last couple of games. Just don't make a bad
2:18
Speaker 1: play worse as far as if if we're not if
2:20
Speaker 1: we didn't get the look we necessarily thought we were
2:22
Speaker 1: going to have, or first couple of guys aren't open.
2:25
Speaker 1: You don't make a bad play worse, throw the ball away,
2:27
Speaker 1: scramble for no game, a yard or two, whatever it is,
2:30
Speaker 1: and move on to the next play. And you know,
2:32
Speaker 1: that's kind of the lesson to learn. Just you relearn
2:35
Speaker 1: these things all the time playing the sport because it's
2:37
Speaker 1: it's uh, you know, you think you got something and
2:39
Speaker 1: then you make that that mistake again and you just
2:41
Speaker 1: have to keep going back to um the little thing.
2:43
Speaker 1: So I think for for me, it's just um. Being
2:46
Speaker 1: a being a great player is yes, making all the
2:49
Speaker 1: routine plays, even the great plays, but it's also how
2:53
Speaker 1: do I minimize the bad plays? And how do I
2:55
Speaker 1: make a bad play? Maybe I misread something, but it
2:58
Speaker 1: doesn't turn into intersection, just a nacompletion. You didn't throw
3:01
Speaker 1: it away. So stuff like that. Um. I think that's
3:03
Speaker 1: where the great ones. That's what they do really well
3:07
Speaker 1: is they don't make bad plays worse and they really
3:09
Speaker 1: minimize them. So we'll see if you can adjust this
3:12
Speaker 1: week onto the defense. Now, Trayvon Walker had the unnecessary
3:15
Speaker 1: roughness last week, but in general, the league is protecting
3:19
Speaker 1: quarterbacks a little bit more. Might cald Well, the defensive coordinator,
3:23
Speaker 1: explained how challenging it is to teach where and how
3:26
Speaker 1: to hit the quarterback. Yeah, well, you have the rules.
3:30
Speaker 1: You just have to bude by them and they're not changing.
3:33
Speaker 1: But you just have to understand that in that situation,
3:35
Speaker 1: you can't throw them down. You can put them down
3:38
Speaker 1: horse color in the pocket, but there are certain ways
3:41
Speaker 1: where you have to land on a quarterback or try
3:44
Speaker 1: not to land on the quarterback. And we've gone over that.
3:47
Speaker 1: They understand it, and it's tough forre defensive player, but
3:50
Speaker 1: that's what we gotta do to buy by the rule.
3:52
Speaker 1: Here you have it. You can see the full press
3:53
Speaker 1: conferences Press Taylor and Mike cald Well available on Jaguars
3:57
Speaker 1: dot Com. And well, I guess in order to you know,
4:00
Speaker 1: hit the quarterback, that means you have to get to
4:02
Speaker 1: the quarterback. We'll get to that coming up as well.
4:04
Speaker 1: Jeff Logerman with US Jaguars analyst, Good afternoon, It's week six,
4:09
Speaker 1: Week six on the on the Indy. To use my
4:15
Speaker 1: best Bill Belichick, we're on Indy. Well, good thing because
4:19
Speaker 1: the last two weeks have not gone so well for
4:21
Speaker 1: this team. Back to back losses, sloppy conditions in Philly
4:25
Speaker 1: two weeks ago, and then coming back home disappointing loss
4:28
Speaker 1: to say the least against Houston, but still an opportunity.
4:32
Speaker 1: You can go ahead and you get a win this
4:34
Speaker 1: week two and one of the Division three and three,
4:37
Speaker 1: and everything is still out in front for this team. Yeah,
4:39
Speaker 1: I was. I was actually, uh just writing my little
4:44
Speaker 1: tidbit for John Osher, who compiles the expert's opinions. Some
4:49
Speaker 1: guy named John Oh, yeah, I've heard of him, okay,
4:52
Speaker 1: And and I was writing in this, you know, because
4:55
Speaker 1: you say the Jags will win if you know the
4:57
Speaker 1: Colts will win if and then how you see it
5:00
Speaker 1: that kind of thing. And uh, it's amazing when you
5:04
Speaker 1: look at the Jaguars two wins and that they were
5:07
Speaker 1: plus five in those games. You had three takeaways against
5:10
Speaker 1: the Colts. They were all interceptions and then you had
5:14
Speaker 1: two takeaways against the Chargers, so you're plus five and
5:19
Speaker 1: your two wins, and then I believe you were seven giveaways,
5:24
Speaker 1: one takeaway and the then the last two losses. Not
5:27
Speaker 1: not looking back to Washington, and you always they always
5:31
Speaker 1: say that turnover deferential is one of the biggest factors
5:35
Speaker 1: or single most determining factor and whether you win or lose.
5:37
Speaker 1: I mean, if if you want to look at one
5:39
Speaker 1: stat I mean that one right there might be the
5:42
Speaker 1: one to take a look at. And and yes, it's
5:45
Speaker 1: it's obvious and a lot of people know this that
5:47
Speaker 1: a lot of those takeaways or the giveaways have been
5:50
Speaker 1: at the hands of Trevor Lawrence. And that's part of
5:53
Speaker 1: what happens when you have a young quarterback and then
5:56
Speaker 1: he needs to have a bounce back week. We're hoping
5:58
Speaker 1: that he would have a bounce back week the past game,
6:00
Speaker 1: and it didn't happen. I thought it was one't as
6:03
Speaker 1: egregious as the game in Philadelphia because the number of
6:06
Speaker 1: fumbles that he put on the ground in that game
6:08
Speaker 1: were tough. But he's got to get better. But what
6:13
Speaker 1: Press Taylor just said is so true, you know, and
6:16
Speaker 1: that he's saying look, we all got to get better coaches, players,
6:20
Speaker 1: everybody around Trevor, and he's right on that. I mean,
6:23
Speaker 1: you go back and you look at that game, this
6:25
Speaker 1: past game, and that was a winnable game JP And
6:29
Speaker 1: there's no argument I think from anybody that that's a
6:32
Speaker 1: winnable game. And you look at things that could have
6:35
Speaker 1: been done differently in that game from other people besides
6:40
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence. Okay, Trayvon Walker. Okay, what Mike Caldwell is
6:45
Speaker 1: just talking about, we gotta play by the rules. Well, okay,
6:48
Speaker 1: let's not be all sides, and let's not be all
6:51
Speaker 1: sides and then get mad about and throw the quarterback
6:53
Speaker 1: down to the ground. You gotta be smarter than that.
6:56
Speaker 1: And you and and and here's the thing around the
6:59
Speaker 1: league this past week, and that might have been the
7:00
Speaker 1: biggest reason as to why now going forward, you better
7:04
Speaker 1: not do that again because the league is is trying
7:08
Speaker 1: to protect their their players. So that's one example. Dan
7:13
Speaker 1: Arnold has a drop, et n has a drop, Evan
7:16
Speaker 1: Ingram has a drop. Say Jones might have made one
7:19
Speaker 1: of those two catches that were kind of off his fingertips, Okay,
7:25
Speaker 1: James Robinson on a fourth and one. Okay, a little
7:28
Speaker 1: read option. He goes straight downhill. It's one on one
7:32
Speaker 1: with the safety to the end zone. Okay, but okay,
7:36
Speaker 1: let's say he makes a bad read. Okay, See he
7:38
Speaker 1: goes front side right there, Jowan Taylor who is on
7:42
Speaker 1: the left side, and an unbalanced look, get a little
7:45
Speaker 1: better block and then so if James makes the wrong read,
7:50
Speaker 1: you still get a yard, you know what I mean.
7:53
Speaker 1: So when it's easy to say the quarterback quarterback, of course,
7:58
Speaker 1: it's easy to say that when it's it's very easy
8:03
Speaker 1: to say that, you know. And that's why I bring
8:06
Speaker 1: up some of these plays because I mean, the reality
8:08
Speaker 1: is is that a lot of it is on the quarterback,
8:11
Speaker 1: but it's also there's some things that are on other people.
8:14
Speaker 1: You know, there's plenty on Trevor. You know, early early
8:17
Speaker 1: in the game has throws are a little high, and
8:20
Speaker 1: then later in the game he's trying to force a
8:22
Speaker 1: ball into a window that doesn't exist. When you have
8:24
Speaker 1: to be able to do other things underneath, you know,
8:28
Speaker 1: the other things underneath, okay, and what we call yak okay,
8:33
Speaker 1: and it's not an animal, okay, it's not a lama
8:36
Speaker 1: type thing. JP I know that's what you're thinking. Thank you, okay,
8:39
Speaker 1: yak acronym yards after catch. When you face teams that
8:44
Speaker 1: play a lot of cover too, sometimes you gotta throw
8:48
Speaker 1: it underneath. But then also when you throw it underneath,
8:52
Speaker 1: everything with the ball placement is imperative. What I mean
8:56
Speaker 1: by that is that if the ball is put in
8:57
Speaker 1: a position to where the receiver can do things the
9:00
Speaker 1: ball immediately after making the catch, the better the throw,
9:04
Speaker 1: the better of the reaction, the better the yacht. And
9:07
Speaker 1: so Trevor has to have even though he's completing some
9:10
Speaker 1: of these balls underneath, he has to have some better
9:12
Speaker 1: accuracy of those throws underneath so that the players are
9:16
Speaker 1: in a better position to come out of the catch
9:19
Speaker 1: to game more yards. So does that come with time?
9:23
Speaker 1: I mean just time on task with these guys like
9:25
Speaker 1: the timing, I mean, how does that improve a quarterbacks actress?
9:30
Speaker 1: Accuracy is so dependent upon anticipation. Correct if you think
9:36
Speaker 1: about it with a like a baseball pitcher. Okay, you've
9:40
Speaker 1: been around baseball many years. Pitchers are all about accuracy. Okay,
9:46
Speaker 1: when they're winding up there, winding up and delivering a pitch,
9:51
Speaker 1: knowing where they want to go with the ball. That's
9:54
Speaker 1: how they can pinpoint pinpoint accuracy on certain pitches. Quarterback
10:01
Speaker 1: is very similar, and that if they know where the
10:02
Speaker 1: ball is gonna go, or have a pretty strong ideas
10:05
Speaker 1: to where the ball needs to go or where it's
10:07
Speaker 1: gonna go, then they anticipate that with their feet. They
10:11
Speaker 1: react with their feet in a in a much more
10:16
Speaker 1: anticipatory fashion to where now they're ready to make the throw.
10:20
Speaker 1: Tom Brady, when when he lines up jp hole, he'll
10:23
Speaker 1: eliminate the first and the second option on a play
10:26
Speaker 1: and maybe beyond to the third and fourth when the
10:28
Speaker 1: ball hits his hands, so now he knows like, I'm
10:31
Speaker 1: not throwing it to those two guys because I've determined
10:33
Speaker 1: the coverage already pre stamped, you know. So more experienced
10:36
Speaker 1: a player player gets, and the Trevor Lawrence the case,
10:39
Speaker 1: the more experience he gets, the more accuracy will he
10:42
Speaker 1: will get because he will know where he needs to
10:44
Speaker 1: be going with the football. I think, to your baseball reference,
10:47
Speaker 1: that's called command of picture exactly where it's gone. And
10:51
Speaker 1: if you command your fastball or whatever it is exactly,
10:54
Speaker 1: you know exactly where and why you're putting it in
10:56
Speaker 1: a spot. And that that comes with time and with
10:59
Speaker 1: a quarterback, you know, the when you start to gain
11:03
Speaker 1: more experience in a system and a progression. So I've
11:07
Speaker 1: I've you know, repped this progression many times, and now
11:09
Speaker 1: I'm repping it against four different defenses. Now you have
11:13
Speaker 1: something that you kind of your memory goes back to,
11:16
Speaker 1: and so then your reaction time is quicker, your anticipation
11:19
Speaker 1: is much better, your accuracy is much better because your
11:21
Speaker 1: footwork is more anticipating where the ball needs to go. So,
11:25
Speaker 1: I mean, all of these things factor in and and
11:28
Speaker 1: I will tell you You've got to have a a
11:32
Speaker 1: certain level of toughness to play that position on the field.
11:35
Speaker 1: When I'm talking about being able to take the finish,
11:37
Speaker 1: the physical punishment, but you also have to have the
11:40
Speaker 1: mental toughness to be able to fight through some of
11:43
Speaker 1: these young moments and to be able to kind of
11:46
Speaker 1: put the blinders on and be able to focus on
11:48
Speaker 1: your game. And that's what tred word Trevor is at
11:50
Speaker 1: right now. Yeah, I liked what he said. Don't make
11:52
Speaker 1: a bad play worse. You know, if things aren't going well,
11:55
Speaker 1: you know, just dumping away to the sideline and live
11:57
Speaker 1: to fight third down, you know, don't don't force it
11:59
Speaker 1: in that window. And one and here's another way to
12:02
Speaker 1: put it. You know, when he when he says, don't
12:04
Speaker 1: make a bad play worse. And and that's if nothing's there,
12:07
Speaker 1: I think is where he's talking us, where there are
12:09
Speaker 1: no options, okay. And then sometimes with a quarterback you
12:14
Speaker 1: get greedy. When I say you get greedy, is that
12:16
Speaker 1: you want to force the ball down the field a
12:19
Speaker 1: little bit into a very small window when sometimes you know,
12:23
Speaker 1: all you need to do is move the sticks and
12:24
Speaker 1: line up another another play and get a new set
12:26
Speaker 1: of down so you know, check it down or throw
12:29
Speaker 1: it to this guy underneath, because that window down the field,
12:32
Speaker 1: it just doesn't make any sense to try to force
12:34
Speaker 1: it into that window because it's it's too small. The
12:37
Speaker 1: percentage of completing that passed down there and that small
12:40
Speaker 1: window is much smaller than it is. So of this, okay,
12:42
Speaker 1: let's just move the chains here on this down, throw
12:45
Speaker 1: it up underneath, and then okay, now we'll line up.
12:47
Speaker 1: Maybe we'll get a play down the field later on.
12:49
Speaker 1: And the challenge this week is similar to last week,
12:54
Speaker 1: and that from the standpoint of you're facing teams now
12:57
Speaker 1: that like to play a lot of his own. Levy
12:59
Speaker 1: Smith was a cover two zone. All eyes are on
13:01
Speaker 1: the quarterback. Trevor sometimes doesn't do a very good job
13:05
Speaker 1: with kind of hiding where his eyes are. Okay, that's
13:07
Speaker 1: part of experience as well. This weeks Bradley Defense plays
13:11
Speaker 1: more Cover three zone than anybody in the league. So
13:14
Speaker 1: here's another week in which you have people with their
13:17
Speaker 1: eyes on you, watching your eyes, and so this is
13:20
Speaker 1: gonna be a big challenge for Trevor this week. He's
13:22
Speaker 1: gotta he's gotta protect the ball, and if he does,
13:25
Speaker 1: this team will have a strong chance of having success
13:28
Speaker 1: again against the goals. P r I Productions, the official

13:44
Speaker 1: ahead of us. The Doug Peterson Show is at five o'clock.
13:47
Speaker 1: We'll hear from the Jaguar's head coach and get his
13:49
Speaker 1: thoughts heading into Week six, especially on that offense and
13:53
Speaker 1: the quarterback play and that we've just talked through with
13:56
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence. We will return though with a look at
13:59
Speaker 1: the Jaguar defense and their matchup this week Matt Ryan
14:02
Speaker 1: and the Indianapolis Colts. Await. This is Jaguars Happy Hour
14:06
Speaker 1: on the Jaguars Digital Network. Jaguars Game Day Radio is
14:24
Speaker 1: brought to you by Vicestar, Credit Union, Do Good, Bank Better,
14:27
Speaker 1: j P Shadrick, Jeff Logoman. It is Jaguars Happy Hour
14:32
Speaker 1: and the Jaguars are headed to Indianapolis this week to
14:36
Speaker 1: face the Colts in Week six. The Jags shut out
14:39
Speaker 1: the Colts of course back in week two, a month
14:42
Speaker 1: apart between these games, and the Jaguars logs will be
14:46
Speaker 1: facing Matt Ryan again. They sacked him five times back
14:49
Speaker 1: in that opening matchup. Um, they've shut down the running
14:53
Speaker 1: game that helped them be able to rush the passer
14:57
Speaker 1: in that game, which was that's that's the big reason
14:59
Speaker 1: why all of that happened. Yeah, you shut down Taylor
15:02
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden it set up everything
15:04
Speaker 1: they were They didn't have a couple of receivers either way.
15:06
Speaker 1: Those guys are back. There's some changes now in this
15:08
Speaker 1: indie team. Well there's been well there's changes as far
15:11
Speaker 1: as you know, and and and every time you play
15:14
Speaker 1: a team in a division, you know, the second time around,
15:16
Speaker 1: it's always going to be different. You know, there's different
15:18
Speaker 1: guys that are available, and uh, sometimes sometimes the team's
15:22
Speaker 1: identity can change a little bit, lineups can change, and
15:26
Speaker 1: there's there's a little bit of change that the big
15:28
Speaker 1: amount of changes Willard won't he play is Jonathan Taylor?
15:33
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know. I mean what we got
15:35
Speaker 1: into practice report from today. Yet I did hear that
15:38
Speaker 1: he was on the field today, which this is this
15:41
Speaker 1: is a big question mark because even if he does play,
15:44
Speaker 1: how effective Kenny peak Because the reports are is that
15:47
Speaker 1: he had a high ankle sprain, which was two games ago,
15:52
Speaker 1: I think the Tennessee game if I'm correct me. Look
15:56
Speaker 1: it was Tennessee. So that was the second of October Ober,
16:01
Speaker 1: and then they played the short week against Denver on
16:03
Speaker 1: a Thursday night in Denver, and h typically, guys that
16:07
Speaker 1: have a high ankle spring they're not coming back in
16:09
Speaker 1: two weeks. I mean, it's most of them are four
16:12
Speaker 1: at six. So will here won't he play? That's a
16:16
Speaker 1: big question. He was out there today, According to a
16:18
Speaker 1: report from the Indianapolis Star of the newspaper in Indy. Uh,
16:21
Speaker 1: he was back at practice Thursday, set out Wednesday with
16:24
Speaker 1: the ankle injury. He was warming up and doing drills
16:27
Speaker 1: during the media portion and then running back him. Hines,
16:30
Speaker 1: with a concussion, was also at practice, but he had
16:32
Speaker 1: a red non contact jersey. Yeah, that's the other thing. Okay,
16:35
Speaker 1: So this past Thursday game against Denver, you don't have
16:39
Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor available. Now you're expecting them to go with
16:43
Speaker 1: Naheim Hines. Well, he gets a concussion and leaves that
16:48
Speaker 1: has to leave the game because he actually tries to
16:50
Speaker 1: stand up and his falling down gross motor instability. And
16:55
Speaker 1: I would be shocked if he's available to play, even
16:57
Speaker 1: though he got the extra half a week for the
17:00
Speaker 1: game on Thursday, because JP we know right now the
17:04
Speaker 1: current climate in the league when it comes to concussions
17:07
Speaker 1: is that I think they're gonna air on the side
17:09
Speaker 1: of caution with some of these guys, especially in light
17:12
Speaker 1: of what's happening with the to A situation. So I
17:15
Speaker 1: don't think he's going to be available. So is Jonathan
17:18
Speaker 1: Taylor gonna play? We don't know. Hines. I don't expect
17:21
Speaker 1: him to play. The next guy up was Dion Jackson,
17:24
Speaker 1: who did actually did a pretty solid job at thirteen
17:27
Speaker 1: carries for sixty two yards in that game on Thursday night.
17:30
Speaker 1: Looked like a pretty good back. And then they had
17:32
Speaker 1: Philip Lindsay who they activated off of the practice squad,
17:35
Speaker 1: and he had trouble finding the holes. And I was
17:38
Speaker 1: always kind of curious as to why the Broncos got
17:40
Speaker 1: rid of him and why nobody really kind of latched
17:42
Speaker 1: onto because remember he had the had a pretty strong
17:45
Speaker 1: rookie campaign as an undrafted guy. Well, what I saw
17:48
Speaker 1: Thursday night make you think, yeah, I can understand why
17:51
Speaker 1: he was he was available. So anyway, they've got some
17:54
Speaker 1: issues when it comes to their running backs, their center.
17:59
Speaker 1: You're Alabama guy Kelly got hurt. Okay, he had a hip,
18:03
Speaker 1: he had to leave the game, didn't finish the game.
18:06
Speaker 1: And then there are wide receivers. You say that they're back,
18:10
Speaker 1: but do they really scare anybody? Yeah, Pittman is the
18:15
Speaker 1: guy who missed of course last meeting back in week two.
18:18
Speaker 1: But is he a home run threat? I don't know.
18:21
Speaker 1: He's a big body. I'll say that he's a he's
18:24
Speaker 1: a big receiver, but I mean he doesn't change the
18:26
Speaker 1: way defensive coordinators scheme the Colts. I say that he'll
18:31
Speaker 1: have three touchdowns. Now that I said that, of course,
18:36
Speaker 1: because I don't want to mess that up either. But
18:38
Speaker 1: I mean, he's a good player. He's got size, but
18:41
Speaker 1: he don't I don't think he doesn't scare anybody. And
18:43
Speaker 1: then on the other side, they got a rookie Alec Pierce.
18:47
Speaker 1: You know, so these are two bigger receivers. They do
18:49
Speaker 1: a good job catching the ball. But again there and
18:53
Speaker 1: you go back to the days when the Colts were
18:55
Speaker 1: you had speed at wide receiver, legitimate speed, and people
18:58
Speaker 1: were scared of Reggie Wayne and Marvin Harrison. These guys
19:01
Speaker 1: aren't it And Matt Ryan is throwing once you get
19:05
Speaker 1: past those two guys to a bunch of no name guys.
19:09
Speaker 1: Big questions on defense, is Shaq Lennard gonna play? But
19:12
Speaker 1: to be honest with you, JP, that might be the
19:14
Speaker 1: smallest question that they have. Shack Leonard is a really
19:19
Speaker 1: good football player, right, how many time Pro Bowl guy?
19:23
Speaker 1: How many time All Pro? Pretty good? Right? In one
19:26
Speaker 1: year he didn't get the Pro Bowl. He should have
19:28
Speaker 1: been in the Pro Bowl, which I think was his
19:30
Speaker 1: rookie year. And uh, he had the back injury, had
19:33
Speaker 1: back surgery, and then he finally came back and played
19:36
Speaker 1: against Tennessee. In that game, he gets a concussion and
19:39
Speaker 1: a broken nose. And the reality is is that the
19:43
Speaker 1: guys that have been playing when he hasn't been playing,
19:45
Speaker 1: which is like e. J. Speed has been stepping in there,
19:48
Speaker 1: have been playing really good. So I don't think he's
19:52
Speaker 1: he's missed because he's a turnover making machine. But the
19:57
Speaker 1: level of play that they're getting with his backups has
20:00
Speaker 1: been exceptionally good for a backup. I can tell you
20:03
Speaker 1: that the Colts offensive line, you know, a couple of
20:08
Speaker 1: years ago, you would have looked at him and been, Wow,
20:11
Speaker 1: this is one of the best lines in all of football.
20:14
Speaker 1: Nelson was a couple of years in a left guard.
20:16
Speaker 1: They had some other personnel there, and they had kind
20:19
Speaker 1: of fixed that offensive line that they didn't have when
20:22
Speaker 1: Andrew Luck was around there. They think they kind of
20:24
Speaker 1: neglected things, but they made up for lost time. Well,
20:27
Speaker 1: now Matt Ryan is the most sacked quarterback in the
20:30
Speaker 1: NFL this year. What's going on on the offensive line
20:34
Speaker 1: and and how can this Jags defense exploit this group? Well,
20:36
Speaker 1: he's the most sacked with Matt Stafford. Him and Matt
20:39
Speaker 1: Stafford twenty one sacks. Both guys have been taken down. Uh. Well,
20:46
Speaker 1: first of all, I gotta stop the run, and that's
20:47
Speaker 1: how the Jaguars were able to affect him in the
20:50
Speaker 1: first meeting. And when you stopped the run, it puts
20:53
Speaker 1: a lot of pressure on an offensive line that's really
20:55
Speaker 1: trying to find a groove in a rhythm, and they
20:56
Speaker 1: haven't found it yet. You know, this pass game Thursday
20:59
Speaker 1: and night that they played against the Broncos, they actually
21:02
Speaker 1: tried to change the lineup a little bit to see
21:05
Speaker 1: if they could get some better results. They started a
21:08
Speaker 1: rookie left tackle and Bernard Raymond Ryman whenever you want
21:12
Speaker 1: to have you pronounced his name. Quent Nelson started at
21:15
Speaker 1: his usual left guard. Kelly started at center, but again
21:18
Speaker 1: got hurt during that game, and they made another switch
21:22
Speaker 1: over on the right side. Matt Prior, who had been
21:23
Speaker 1: their normal starting left tackle, moved over to right tackle.
21:26
Speaker 1: Then they kicked Brandon Smith. I believe his name is, yeah,
21:29
Speaker 1: Brandon Smith. They kicked him down to right guard and uh,
21:33
Speaker 1: and then they benched Danny Pinter, who was the guy
21:36
Speaker 1: that was always kind of considered the weakest link with
21:38
Speaker 1: the Colts offensive line, and the results didn't get any better.
21:42
Speaker 1: It might have gotten worse because Ryman, the left guard
21:45
Speaker 1: or the left tackle, the rookie got hammered, I mean hammered.
21:49
Speaker 1: And then Matt Pryor wasn't that good at right tackle,
21:53
Speaker 1: and then you get an injury in the middle, and
21:55
Speaker 1: then I will say this quent Nelson is not playing
21:59
Speaker 1: that good. I mean he's singing his praises going into
22:02
Speaker 1: week two because I thought the first game he played
22:05
Speaker 1: really well and for some I mean, this guy is
22:11
Speaker 1: one of the best guards in football. I mean typically
22:13
Speaker 1: he's one of the best guards you ever I've ever
22:15
Speaker 1: watched on film. And the performance that he had Thursday
22:20
Speaker 1: night against the Broncos Broncos was not that good, and
22:25
Speaker 1: I guess the previous week against Tennessee was not that
22:27
Speaker 1: good either. So you go and you look at what
22:29
Speaker 1: his rating is on PFF Pro Football Focus. Yes, okay,
22:34
Speaker 1: and if you put in the category that you gotta
22:37
Speaker 1: have the snaps, which is kind of a a qualifying
22:41
Speaker 1: factor to rank the guards. So you're trying to rank
22:43
Speaker 1: the guys that play, not somebody that goes in and
22:46
Speaker 1: plays ten snaps and plays exceptional and gets a high
22:49
Speaker 1: rating because of that. So you want to take out
22:52
Speaker 1: some of those outliers. So I did you go in
22:54
Speaker 1: there and you put the snaps in and he's ranked
22:58
Speaker 1: twenty three Wow, which uh, not very good Ryan Kelly,
23:09
Speaker 1: and he's supposed to be one of the better centers
23:11
Speaker 1: in football. So I mean, what's going on with the Colts? Well,
23:18
Speaker 1: I mean the guys aren't playing as well. The ones
23:19
Speaker 1: that are supposed to be playing well, they're not playing
23:22
Speaker 1: as well as they should. So this is an opportunity
23:25
Speaker 1: for the Jaguar. So if you stop the run, and
23:27
Speaker 1: if they don't have Jonathan Taylor, it's gonna be a
23:29
Speaker 1: lot easier to do that. And if Jonathan Taylor plays,
23:32
Speaker 1: how healthy will he be? You got a great opportunity
23:36
Speaker 1: to get after Matt Ryan, who is not gonna be
23:38
Speaker 1: anywhere besides right in the pocket. He ain't going anywhere.
23:43
Speaker 1: I mean that's when you're when you're a pass rusher,
23:45
Speaker 1: you want to pass rush guys like him because you
23:48
Speaker 1: know Ryan doesn't move so good no more. I mean,
23:52
Speaker 1: he's not going to evade anybody in the pocket. And
23:56
Speaker 1: it's not like he has this great pocket present. It's
24:00
Speaker 1: about him. He got he got away in the pocket.
24:03
Speaker 1: On one play of late in the game against the Broncos,
24:06
Speaker 1: and he made a nice little escape up into the pocket,
24:10
Speaker 1: made a throw down the field. But I mean for
24:12
Speaker 1: the most part, once he gets moving, he doesn't function
24:16
Speaker 1: very well. That's good news. We'll see if the Jacks
24:20
Speaker 1: can take advantage of that this Sunday at Lucas Oil Stadium.
24:23
Speaker 1: Plenty ahead on this show, we'll come back with the
24:26
Speaker 1: injury reports. Nothing official from the Jaguars as of yet today.

25:15
Speaker 1: the network. A lot of a lot of quarterback conversation
25:19
Speaker 1: questions all swirling around after that game. Was wondering immediately
25:24
Speaker 1: after the game. I know, I hear this on the
25:27
Speaker 1: postgame call in show, the scoreboard show. I actually I
25:30
Speaker 1: actually heard some of that, and uh and I did
25:34
Speaker 1: I did hear Mr, Mr Mr Fred Taylor talking about
25:40
Speaker 1: a story about one guy used to be a goody
25:42
Speaker 1: two shoes in the legends community back in the day,
25:46
Speaker 1: who has uh kind of flipped rolls with somebody who
25:49
Speaker 1: wasn't so goody two shoes back in the day. Life
25:52
Speaker 1: happened sometimes, right, I guess I don't know that story.
25:57
Speaker 1: I gotta say, interesting, Yeah, you know what I'm talking about. Yeah,
26:01
Speaker 1: if you listen, Fred, Yes said that the other night too.
26:05
Speaker 1: All right, so uh signing out for the JPS moving on.
26:08
Speaker 1: He doesn't he doesn't want to get your lame for
26:11
Speaker 1: sharing the story to protect the innocent. Time for the
26:15
Speaker 1: injury Report presented by Baptist Health and the Jacksonville Orthopedic Institute,
26:19
Speaker 1: the official sports medicine provider of the Jacksonville Jaguars. The
26:23
Speaker 1: official injury report has come out within the last four
26:28
Speaker 1: minutes or so five minutes. You got okay, Jaguars have
26:31
Speaker 1: four players on the list. It's the same four as wednesday.
26:35
Speaker 1: Fully fund Akasi quadriceps, d Von Hamilton with the foot issue,
26:39
Speaker 1: Za Jones with an ankle issue, and Foyer Lukan with
26:42
Speaker 1: a cafish. You all were limited yesterday. All were officially
26:46
Speaker 1: limited in practice today, so uh, no change in their
26:50
Speaker 1: status so far. The Colts have guys all over the place,
26:54
Speaker 1: a few of them are resting. They've got a couple
26:55
Speaker 1: of concussion players, actually three concussion players on the list.
27:00
Speaker 1: We'll start with the biggest names first and Ryan Kelly
27:04
Speaker 1: the center with a hippish. You did not practice wednesday,
27:06
Speaker 1: was limited to daylogs. Shack Leonard is not practiced all
27:11
Speaker 1: week long. Uh, Yan Nick and jan was resting yesterday.
27:15
Speaker 1: Could he pay defensive and ankle injury? Did not practice
27:18
Speaker 1: yesterday or today? And he supposedly has a high ankle,
27:22
Speaker 1: which is the same thing that Jonathan Taylor has been
27:26
Speaker 1: dealing with. Jonathan Taylor did not practice Wednesday, he was
27:29
Speaker 1: limited today. And see that limited designation can be such
27:34
Speaker 1: a tool. What I mean by a tool? What does
27:38
Speaker 1: limited mean it means it's not full exactly. It has
27:43
Speaker 1: a wide range of of definitions, right, It can mean
27:47
Speaker 1: that the guy went out there on crutches and then
27:49
Speaker 1: did the you know, couple of drills on crutches, or
27:52
Speaker 1: it could mean that, oh, we're just putting them on
27:55
Speaker 1: there because we want to make you think that maybe
27:58
Speaker 1: this guy's a little nicked up, and he's not. I mean,
28:00
Speaker 1: it's it's a it's a mind game in a lot
28:03
Speaker 1: of ways because because I mean they there, you know
28:08
Speaker 1: how like when you're the old, the old way of
28:11
Speaker 1: doing things, you know, like doubtful questionable, because what questionable
28:16
Speaker 1: was consider fifty doubtful chance the player won't play, probable
28:22
Speaker 1: whether a player will play or not. So with a
28:24
Speaker 1: press practice practice designation, there's no percentage put to what
28:30
Speaker 1: percentage of plays that a player did, you know. So
28:34
Speaker 1: let's say he goes out there and he does stride
28:36
Speaker 1: and stretch and then after that he does a little
28:41
Speaker 1: walk through period in practice. Well that's limited. I mean
28:44
Speaker 1: maybe physically the guy can't even run, but he can
28:48
Speaker 1: do those other drills, So that's limited. So you see
28:51
Speaker 1: my my point? Yeah, Well, I guess the other part
28:53
Speaker 1: two is like, what what else do you want them
28:55
Speaker 1: to say? Like, do you want him to give every
28:58
Speaker 1: detail of just that snaps of eleven on eleven with
29:03
Speaker 1: the first team in practice today, but then set out
29:06
Speaker 1: periods four or five and six. No, now you don't
29:08
Speaker 1: want you don't need that much detail. But my point
29:11
Speaker 1: is is that if you're trying to make a determination
29:13
Speaker 1: whether or not a player is practice is going to
29:16
Speaker 1: play or not on Sunday on based on a Wednesday
29:19
Speaker 1: Thursday Friday practice designation or whatever you want to call it,
29:23
Speaker 1: you're not gonna be able to figure that out. Because
29:26
Speaker 1: they can They can say some things that maybe not
29:29
Speaker 1: be so accurate with a practice report. You know, if
29:33
Speaker 1: a guy practices limited, what does that mean. It means
29:36
Speaker 1: it wasn't full. It means he didn't do something. Maybe
29:40
Speaker 1: he didn't do just one play. Maybe he did them,
29:45
Speaker 1: and maybe he only did one of them, you know
29:48
Speaker 1: what I mean. So you can't you can't kind of
29:51
Speaker 1: draw any inferences off of a practice report from Wednesday Thursday.
29:55
Speaker 1: You gotta just wait until game day. A lot of
29:57
Speaker 1: a lot of cases. Well that's it for the injury
30:00
Speaker 1: report presented by Baptist Health and the Jacksonville Orthopedic Institute
30:03
Speaker 1: because sports medicine provider of the Jacksonville Jaguars. That's why
30:07
Speaker 1: we needed. The good thing is that the Jaguars are
30:09
Speaker 1: pretty healthy now. The significant loss is not on the
30:15
Speaker 1: injury report, and that's the loss of Ben Bars. Yeah,
30:17
Speaker 1: Ben Bart's done for the year knee issue. Tyler Shatley
30:21
Speaker 1: will get the nod to start at left guard this week.
30:24
Speaker 1: That that's a significant loss because Ben Barts was playing well.
30:29
Speaker 1: He had been improving on a week to week basis,
30:34
Speaker 1: and uh and I thought he was improved last year,
30:38
Speaker 1: but I thought that he'd taken his game to another
30:41
Speaker 1: level this year. And uh and it's a shame that
30:45
Speaker 1: he had the knee. Whatever happened, a shame that he
30:48
Speaker 1: had the knee just because he was making so much progress.
30:52
Speaker 1: But he'll be back next year, hopefully with with no
30:56
Speaker 1: lingering issue at all. Kayla and Chase Hunt also on
30:59
Speaker 1: injured serve but expected to be back. He's got to
31:02
Speaker 1: be on there at least four weeks before he can
31:03
Speaker 1: come back. Yeah, And and that's that hurts just because
31:06
Speaker 1: you lose a little bit of depth, but you have
31:09
Speaker 1: you have some depth there, you know. Arden Key is
31:12
Speaker 1: a guy that plays some of what Calevan does on
31:16
Speaker 1: on defense, but you're gonna lose some packages. Maybe you
31:20
Speaker 1: can put some other players in that type of position,
31:22
Speaker 1: but you do lose Calevan on special teams, which he is.
31:26
Speaker 1: Uh he's been a pretty good contributor on special teams.
31:29
Speaker 1: But yeah, those glad to hear that he has a
31:33
Speaker 1: chance to get back and disappointed for Ben Barton and
31:36
Speaker 1: I hope that everything goes well. If he needs a
31:38
Speaker 1: surgery or whatever. I hope everything goes well, because, uh,
31:41
Speaker 1: it was it was fun to watch him improve week
31:45
Speaker 1: to week. It is good to see if a Kazi
31:48
Speaker 1: getting at least a little bit of practice time. As
31:50
Speaker 1: we said, you know, we don't see all the practice.
31:52
Speaker 1: You can't really it says limited and that means he
31:55
Speaker 1: didn't do nothing. He did something that's good step at least,
31:58
Speaker 1: and we'll see if he's availab well this week. Well,
32:01
Speaker 1: and they've got they elevated when they made those two
32:06
Speaker 1: changes all with the injured reserve players, with Calab and
32:09
Speaker 1: Chason going on injury reserve and then also been barged.
32:13
Speaker 1: They elevated Corey Peters to the active roster. Who's the
32:16
Speaker 1: thirteenth year player that they had on practice squad and
32:18
Speaker 1: they elevated him this past Sunday, so he's brought up
32:20
Speaker 1: to the active roster as well as an offensive lineman
32:24
Speaker 1: that was signed by the name of John Miller, who
32:26
Speaker 1: has been around the league about eight years. So with
32:30
Speaker 1: the injury to Barge, obviously they're looking for maybe a
32:32
Speaker 1: little depth guard and that's what John Miller is gonna
32:35
Speaker 1: be able to provide. And and uh, Shatley will do
32:38
Speaker 1: a good job, you know, And I think it will
32:41
Speaker 1: be interesting to see what happens going forward. Will Shatley
32:44
Speaker 1: continue to be the left guard where you maybe try
32:47
Speaker 1: you know, Cole Van Lannon who came into the process
32:52
Speaker 1: a little bit later when the Jaguars were practicing with
32:54
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Falcons, that's when he joined the team. Is
32:58
Speaker 1: he a guy that could maybe get some Repso we
33:00
Speaker 1: there is John Miller a guy. I mean, there's a
33:03
Speaker 1: lot of different things that that could happen there. You know,
33:05
Speaker 1: Shatley is the perfect swing guy and you hate to
33:09
Speaker 1: lose that on game Dan, I'm not saying he's you
33:11
Speaker 1: know that he can't be a starter. His best position
33:14
Speaker 1: as center to be a regular starter. I think he's
33:17
Speaker 1: a high quality backup. I mean like high quality backup
33:20
Speaker 1: on game day for center and the two guard positions.
33:23
Speaker 1: But uh, we'll have to wait and see kind of
33:25
Speaker 1: how they treat that position moving forward. What kind of
33:28
Speaker 1: matchup does the Jaguars offensive line have as a hole
33:32
Speaker 1: this week against the end front? Well, Shatley's got He's
33:35
Speaker 1: gonna have his hands full because they've got a guy
33:38
Speaker 1: by the name of Divorce Buckner who's pretty good JP.
33:41
Speaker 1: Have you heard him? Yes, very talented and his length
33:45
Speaker 1: he's got lenked, He's got serious length. He's one of
33:48
Speaker 1: those six six ft six six ft seven defensive tackles
33:54
Speaker 1: that is strong. He had two sacks and the Broncos game,
33:58
Speaker 1: which was kind of his breakout game. You know, he's
34:01
Speaker 1: been close to kind of double digits every year. You
34:03
Speaker 1: know then that seven eight range of sacks every year.
34:07
Speaker 1: Good player against the run, good pass rusher because he's
34:10
Speaker 1: long and he can run. He's got movement, he's got power.
34:14
Speaker 1: He's one of the better interior defensive lineman that there
34:18
Speaker 1: is in the league. Really good player. How did they
34:21
Speaker 1: do against him? Week two? Remember I did pretty good
34:24
Speaker 1: against him. I mean he he had his moments where
34:27
Speaker 1: he he made some some things happen, but the offense
34:31
Speaker 1: was so precise in that game about not allowing them
34:36
Speaker 1: to even have an impact on the quarterback just because
34:39
Speaker 1: the ball was coming out. You know, bank bank bang
34:41
Speaker 1: bang bang bang. No, No defensive lineman can you know
34:45
Speaker 1: get to a quarterback when the ball was coming out
34:47
Speaker 1: that quick, so you know, run the ball well, get
34:50
Speaker 1: the ball out of the quarterback's hand pretty fast. And
34:53
Speaker 1: and that was like the secret I think the neutralizing
34:57
Speaker 1: the forced Buckner in that first matchup. But if you
34:59
Speaker 1: get into some situations to where you're not running the
35:03
Speaker 1: ball and you're predictable and you're in third and long,
35:07
Speaker 1: to allow in Gockway the pass rushing opportunities and then
35:12
Speaker 1: also to force Buckner, could he pay if he plays?
35:16
Speaker 1: That's that's not where you want to be. The other
35:18
Speaker 1: defensive lineman in middle, Grover Stewards a good football player. Now,
35:22
Speaker 1: those two guys in the middle are pretty damn good
35:24
Speaker 1: to two big, strong guys good against the run. And
35:28
Speaker 1: Grover Stewart's not the big pass rush guy, but really
35:31
Speaker 1: really good run stopper. If you're looking for the m
35:34
Speaker 1: v P of the truck game. Then look no further
35:37
Speaker 1: than Ford F one fifty, Loaded with impressive capability and
35:41
Speaker 1: designed to dominate, work, play and everything in between. This
35:45
Speaker 1: truck makes tough look easy. Your local Ford dealer, proud
35:49
Speaker 1: partner of the Jacksonville Jaguars. We'll return with some final
35:52
Speaker 1: thoughts and then at five o'clock it's the Doug Peterson Show.
35:56
Speaker 1: We'll hear from the Jaguars head coach coming up ahead
35:58
Speaker 1: of this week sick match up in the a f
36:01
Speaker 1: C South, the Jaguars and the Colts coming up Sunday.
36:03
Speaker 1: This is Jaguars Happy Hour on the Jaguars Digital Network.
36:11
Speaker 1: It's Jaguars Happy Hour. It's Thursday. It's week six. And
36:16
Speaker 1: if you're watching on Jaguars dot Com or Jaguars Social
36:19
Speaker 1: Media Alive. Look at the Miller Electric Center outside t I,
36:23
Speaker 1: a bank field under construction and it continues day by day.
36:29
Speaker 1: You drive it in the morning, they're starting something. You
36:32
Speaker 1: drive out in the afternoon. It's finished. They're moving on.
36:34
Speaker 1: It's called construction. That's how it works. And it should
36:37
Speaker 1: be open for business by training camp of next year.
36:42
Speaker 1: And boy will it be nice. Oh, it's gonna be
36:47
Speaker 1: so nice. That's Jeff Logman, I'm j P. Shadrick, Joe Fortunado, Brent.
36:51
Speaker 1: We were coming up at five o'clock. It is the
36:54
Speaker 1: Doug Peterson Show. Will hear from the Jaguars head coach
36:57
Speaker 1: coming up ahead of this matchup? And know, I'm curious,
37:02
Speaker 1: you know, his thoughts emotions about what's going on with
37:05
Speaker 1: the offense right now in the red zone especially they
37:07
Speaker 1: have struggled down in that area. I think there twenty
37:09
Speaker 1: three in the league in the red zone this year.
37:11
Speaker 1: They were over last week. The turnovers seven of those
37:15
Speaker 1: as you mentioned the last two weeks and losses all
37:17
Speaker 1: from the quarterback. And with an offense that goes through
37:21
Speaker 1: the quarterback, they're gonna be a past first team. The
37:24
Speaker 1: quarterback's gotta play better overall. I'm curious what Doug has
37:27
Speaker 1: to say about that. Yeah, and uh and Doug, Doug,
37:30
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's it's kind of a situation I
37:34
Speaker 1: think is a head coach to where you want to
37:35
Speaker 1: make sure you address it. But you don't want to
37:37
Speaker 1: just sit there and constantly talk about the quarterback because
37:39
Speaker 1: that that doesn't serve you the best situation to be
37:44
Speaker 1: put not, you know, because here here's what I mean, JP,
37:46
Speaker 1: if you're talking about the quarterback all the time being
37:48
Speaker 1: the issue, what are you doing to his psyche Because
37:52
Speaker 1: that's not the only issue. So I mean, you have
37:54
Speaker 1: to be able to as a coach, to be able
37:55
Speaker 1: to spread responsibility and accountability around to your football team,
38:01
Speaker 1: and that accountability also gets spread into the coaching staff.
38:04
Speaker 1: How can we do things better as a coaching staff?
38:07
Speaker 1: And and I'm sure that Doug is looking at all
38:09
Speaker 1: of that. You know, Doug's been around the block before,
38:12
Speaker 1: and that's I think the great thing about having a
38:15
Speaker 1: head coach like Doug in place is that this is
38:19
Speaker 1: not his first rodeo. He's been there, he's done that,
38:23
Speaker 1: He's dealt with a lot of these things before, and
38:26
Speaker 1: he knows how to deal with him moving forward. And
38:28
Speaker 1: that's I think a real positive. And he's worked with quarterbacks,
38:32
Speaker 1: he played the position, he understands what it is and
38:36
Speaker 1: how hard it is to play that position. And I
38:40
Speaker 1: think he will handle this situation with this team in
38:45
Speaker 1: a very positive way. As we said at the start
38:49
Speaker 1: of the show, it's a team that still has everything
38:51
Speaker 1: out in front of them. Of course, it's Week six
38:53
Speaker 1: and there's a lot of football left ahead, but a
38:55
Speaker 1: win against Indie on the road would be all of
38:59
Speaker 1: a sudden two one of the Division, one of the
39:01
Speaker 1: Division three and three overall. One more game against the
39:04
Speaker 1: Texans coming up later, and then two Titans matchups late
39:08
Speaker 1: in the season. Those are down the road a bit.
39:10
Speaker 1: But if you get another one in your back pocket here,
39:13
Speaker 1: then you're in pretty good shape in the division at
39:15
Speaker 1: least right now. Do you want to get back to
39:17
Speaker 1: gaining a little bit of a swagger back as as
39:20
Speaker 1: a football team, gaining some confidence because you've got some
39:23
Speaker 1: some really tough games coming up. I said this last
39:26
Speaker 1: week and that when you were playing the Texans, are
39:28
Speaker 1: getting ready to play the Texans. You want to win
39:30
Speaker 1: the winnable games, and that was a winnable game that
39:33
Speaker 1: they had here Sunday. Well, this is a game I
39:36
Speaker 1: think that's a I don't want to say it's a
39:38
Speaker 1: game that they should win because I don't like to
39:40
Speaker 1: use that terminology. Is this game a winnable game? This
39:43
Speaker 1: is a winnable game, but it's at the Colts Place
39:46
Speaker 1: where they have had very good luck. This has been
39:49
Speaker 1: kind of a home team's advantage matchup. Jaguar is having
39:53
Speaker 1: one to think out of what eight consecutive here in Jacksonville,
39:58
Speaker 1: and the Colts have won four consecutive in Indianapolis, and
40:02
Speaker 1: I think eight of the last nine in Indianapolis. So
40:05
Speaker 1: this is not gonna be an easy game. Uh. Frank
40:08
Speaker 1: Wright does a great job of pulling his team together
40:12
Speaker 1: after tough starts. If you look at the last two years,
40:15
Speaker 1: it's kind of gone down that way and then they
40:17
Speaker 1: get on a roll. And what I think concerns me
40:21
Speaker 1: the most is that you have a veteran quarterback who
40:25
Speaker 1: has been there. The offensive line with the Colts has
40:28
Speaker 1: not played well, but the Jaguars pass rush, I think
40:33
Speaker 1: I've got some concerns with the pass rush hasn't been
40:36
Speaker 1: as good as you would like it to be. It's
40:40
Speaker 1: been kind of quiet. And if you go quiet against
40:44
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan, he's been around too long to not be
40:48
Speaker 1: able to do some damage to your defense. That, to me,
40:52
Speaker 1: is a critical part to this ballgame is making sure
40:56
Speaker 1: that you do a great job stopping their run whoever
40:59
Speaker 1: run is running the ball, and then you've got to
41:01
Speaker 1: find a way to affect Matt Ryan because you haven't
41:05
Speaker 1: been affecting the quarterback as much as you should be
41:07
Speaker 1: doing they've discussed it. The head coach, of course, um
41:13
Speaker 1: players in the locker room that a lot of the
41:16
Speaker 1: issues are self inflicted issues, the fumbles, the missing gaps
41:20
Speaker 1: on run defense, occasionally Russian the pastors, not self inflicted.
41:25
Speaker 1: I'm moving you know, I know, I know, I know
41:27
Speaker 1: you're moving forward. But I just want to make a
41:28
Speaker 1: point of that. That's that's not a matter of Okay,
41:31
Speaker 1: we that's an easy fix. That's a matter of, hey,
41:34
Speaker 1: look we gotta start winning some one on one. You
41:37
Speaker 1: always want to fix the fixable things, but then there
41:39
Speaker 1: comes a point. Okay, now that you fix the fixable things,
41:42
Speaker 1: now you have to beat men. Okay, you have to
41:45
Speaker 1: beat somebody, you know, gotta beat an individual, and that's
41:48
Speaker 1: that becomes the challenge. You know, you gotta see Trayvon
41:51
Speaker 1: Walker have have more of an impact. You know, the
41:53
Speaker 1: first game in Washington, I had a tremendous game. Gotten
41:57
Speaker 1: a little bit quiet since then, Josh Allen, I thought
42:01
Speaker 1: this past game was a little quiet. He's got to
42:03
Speaker 1: start having more of an impact. Where's the impact on
42:06
Speaker 1: the interior rush overall? They need to start having an impact.
42:12
Speaker 1: So it's gotta it's gotta be good this week, especially
42:17
Speaker 1: because this is a quarterback that you can affect him
42:20
Speaker 1: in a big way because he doesn't have the physical
42:25
Speaker 1: things that he used to have. I mean, I'm not
42:27
Speaker 1: trying to say he's an old man, but well he is.
42:31
Speaker 1: He's getting up there, JP and he doesn't it doesn't
42:33
Speaker 1: move like he used to, you know, right, kind of
42:37
Speaker 1: like I don't move like I used to. Certainly don't either,
42:39
Speaker 1: that's for sure. I know, that's for sure. You're young. Yeah,
42:42
Speaker 1: I was talking about you though, I was talking about you.
42:45
Speaker 1: I'm talking about you. Tonight on television, Jaguars All Access
42:49
Speaker 1: Live from Strings Brewery in Springfield on Fox thirty seven o'clock.
42:52
Speaker 1: Josh Allen is the regular co host, I'll be there
42:55
Speaker 1: you and what Britain Martineau you might have heard of him,
42:59
Speaker 1: and then was the special guest tonight Devin Lloyd. All Right,
43:04
Speaker 1: Devin Lloyd, who was the NFL Rookie Defensive Player for
43:08
Speaker 1: the month of September and is a strong candidate in
43:12
Speaker 1: my opinion for and will be a strong candidate for
43:15
Speaker 1: the NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year. This guy is
43:18
Speaker 1: it's really good. Now. He had a couple of miss
43:20
Speaker 1: tackles last week. But I will say that he gets
43:24
Speaker 1: around the ball effortlessly. And when I say effortlessly, it's
43:28
Speaker 1: not it requires effort. But he's just so smooth and
43:31
Speaker 1: he's so consistent, and he's so athletic. He does things
43:34
Speaker 1: that they're just fun to watch. And he's a good one. Now,
43:39
Speaker 1: he's a real good play, really good player, always around
43:42
Speaker 1: the ball, always has his hands on the ball. It
43:44
Speaker 1: feels like he had that at Utah. That was his
43:47
Speaker 1: m O in college. I think they had. I think
43:50
Speaker 1: he ended up getting credited for leven tackles in that
43:54
Speaker 1: game against the Texans, but yet he had I think
43:58
Speaker 1: like five miss tackles. Wow, So think about that. If
44:03
Speaker 1: he makes all those tackles, let's say all of a sudden,
44:07
Speaker 1: he just transformed into Bobby Wagner and doesn't miss any
44:10
Speaker 1: of those tackles. He's got sixteen tackles in a game.
44:16
Speaker 1: I mean, but I mean, that's that's impressive. Now. So
44:19
Speaker 1: I mean that's something that he needs to clean up.
44:22
Speaker 1: Which I'm sure he knows that because he's a you know,
44:27
Speaker 1: to visit with him, I have, and what I love
44:29
Speaker 1: about him is that he is he is very aware
44:32
Speaker 1: he is a student of the game from talking to
44:35
Speaker 1: the coaches, and they love his work ethic and uh
44:40
Speaker 1: yeah and hand and remember the guy missed all of
44:42
Speaker 1: the preseason, right, he missed everything but the Atlanta week
44:49
Speaker 1: and he was the only one out there the starters,
44:52
Speaker 1: the only start. He was the only one that played
44:53
Speaker 1: in that preseason game. But he missed all of camp
44:58
Speaker 1: until they went to Flower Branch to practice the Falcons
45:01
Speaker 1: and that's when he started to practice full played in
45:04
Speaker 1: that game and it was a starter from the get go.
45:07
Speaker 1: And he has been he's been good, really good. Look
45:12
Speaker 1: forward to that tonight on Jaguars All Access Television. Get
45:15
Speaker 1: down the Strings. That's a good time. If you've never
45:17
Speaker 1: been to a show in person, you go check it out.
45:19
Speaker 1: Food is fantastic, of course, the beer flows, and it's
45:23
Speaker 1: what's j No, you're working for me. They got a
45:28
Speaker 1: lot of people like the food there. I like the
45:30
Speaker 1: food there, got good cold beer. I just wish wasn't working. Hey,
45:35
Speaker 1: why don't you come and sit in for me tonight
45:37
Speaker 1: and I'll drink you Just come down and drink beer
45:39
Speaker 1: and watch you. That's maybe that's what I'll do. How
45:42
Speaker 1: about that? Alright? So how you feeling about this game?
45:45
Speaker 1: It's a divisional matchup. Nervous Are you nervous? Really nervous
45:49
Speaker 1: because of Matt Ryan? Because of Matt Ryan, You're nervous.
45:54
Speaker 1: You're not nervous because the JAG's offense has been a
45:57
Speaker 1: little shaky the last couple of Well, that's I mean,
45:59
Speaker 1: that's part of it. But you've turned the ball over
46:02
Speaker 1: a lot. They've turned the ball over a lot recently.
46:06
Speaker 1: You've got uh, you know, Matt, I think you've got
46:10
Speaker 1: two of the top three quarterbacks in giveaways in the
46:13
Speaker 1: National Football League this week. So which quarterback kind of
46:18
Speaker 1: cleans that up? And Matt Ryan's got an offensive line
46:23
Speaker 1: that's that's struggling. The Jaguars offensive line, on the other hand,
46:26
Speaker 1: I thought played pretty well this past game. Now, it
46:29
Speaker 1: was against the Texans defensive front that I wouldn't say
46:33
Speaker 1: is one of the best in the league now, and
46:36
Speaker 1: you heard me talking about that last week, said that
46:38
Speaker 1: their front seven is not great, right, but they're still
46:40
Speaker 1: in the NFL defensive front they are, And the Jaguars
46:43
Speaker 1: offensive line did pretty good. So can Trevor get the
46:47
Speaker 1: same time in Indianapolis that he was getting this past game?
46:52
Speaker 1: So that he can work his things out. And will
46:56
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan get better protection so that he can figure
47:00
Speaker 1: some things out with their passing game. That's this is
47:04
Speaker 1: our This is a game that I had to say
47:06
Speaker 1: that which which quarterback bounces back after the subpar performance
47:11
Speaker 1: of last week? Because Matt Ryan had a subpart performance
47:15
Speaker 1: and then Trevor Lawrence had a subpart performance. Which one
47:18
Speaker 1: bounces back? Whichever one does, we'll leave their team to victory.
47:23
Speaker 1: How many points will it take to win this game? Uh,
47:30
Speaker 1: probably twenty? I think three? Be it seems right. It
47:37
Speaker 1: seems about right, um and I did. And defensively, Gus
47:44
Speaker 1: Bradley has got a good defense over there. They're playing
47:46
Speaker 1: solid there. They keep their eyes back to the quarterback.
47:49
Speaker 1: Stefind Gilmore has been really good. Was a hero last
47:53
Speaker 1: Thursday night. Had a pass break up and then uh
47:56
Speaker 1: two was it one interception, one pass break up or
47:58
Speaker 1: two two pass break up ups? He had an interception
48:02
Speaker 1: and a pass break up to end the game. Pretty
48:05
Speaker 1: good day. He's been pretty good. He's big challenge. Big
48:08
Speaker 1: challenge alright, So the Jaguars and the Indianapolis Colts coming
