- 0:01Speaker 1: Jaguarris. Did you don't like what Jack Morris? Did you
- 0:03Speaker 1: go Jaguarris drive Time righting sex sex? John says it
- 0:10Speaker 1: actually Jaguarris Drive Time starts right now. You know, I'm
- 0:17Speaker 1: pulling for these guys. I'm pulling for um. You know,
- 0:21Speaker 1: these these three phases to come together, and you know
- 0:24Speaker 1: we're working on that and we talk about that, but um,
- 0:27Speaker 1: you know we're not being We're not able to do that,
- 0:29Speaker 1: you know, playing and play out right now. Um, you
- 0:31Speaker 1: know we're not able to. And it's not like we
- 0:34Speaker 1: don't have opportunities. There's opportunities out there. We just haven't
- 0:37Speaker 1: been able to take advantage of it. So you know,
- 0:40Speaker 1: we just gotta you know, work as a whole. I mean.
- 0:43Speaker 1: And the reason why I say that, John, is because
- 0:46Speaker 1: you know, just like I told a team before I
- 0:47Speaker 1: came in here, I mean, you know, the effort of
- 0:50Speaker 1: how they're playing is I can't I mean, I can't
- 0:53Speaker 1: ask for more. You know that we can play smarter
- 0:55Speaker 1: and we can make some plays. Yes, you know, these
- 0:58Speaker 1: are the things that we've got to have to do.
- 0:59Speaker 1: And we have to go out and get ourselves to
- 1:01Speaker 1: win because you know, it's it's it's snakes, you know,
- 1:03Speaker 1: when we've lost, you know, now four in a row.
- 1:09Speaker 1: A number of missed opportunities yesterday in Houston too, in particular,
- 1:14Speaker 1: that we will dive into in depth here on Jaguars
- 1:17Speaker 1: Drive Time on a Monday morning here with John Osier
- 1:20Speaker 1: and Brian Sexton, and We've had a night to sleep
- 1:23Speaker 1: on it. And I'll give the Jaguars this. I can't
- 1:26Speaker 1: figure them out. I mean, one week the offense is okay,
- 1:29Speaker 1: the Jaguars defense isn't playing up to par. We go
- 1:32Speaker 1: into this game yesterday, three of their best players are
- 1:34Speaker 1: out on defense. We're thinking, I don't know about this defense.
- 1:38Speaker 1: And Brian Sexton they did their part. I can't figure
- 1:41Speaker 1: it out. You've done this much longer than me, so
- 1:43Speaker 1: maybe you can figure it out. Well, it's look, they
- 1:48Speaker 1: don't have that elite quarterback that they get consistent play from.
- 1:53Speaker 1: Forget the numbers. Just look at the situations yesterday. Um.
- 1:56Speaker 1: And it's not all on Gardner Minshu. They were dropped passes,
- 1:59Speaker 1: there were plays that should have been called differently. Um,
- 2:02Speaker 1: but they're still so inconsistent on offense. If they were
- 2:06Speaker 1: consistent on offense, right, if you knew what you could
- 2:09Speaker 1: expect from them on offense. Then you ask your defense,
- 2:12Speaker 1: just give us a couple of plays. We we get it.
- 2:14Speaker 1: You're missing a frontline starter on all three levels. You're
- 2:17Speaker 1: a young unit. Just give us a turnover, or to
- 2:20Speaker 1: give us a short field here or there. Just do
- 2:23Speaker 1: enough to turn the tide when we need it. Well,
- 2:26Speaker 1: the defense did that yesterday. But the offense, for all
- 2:30Speaker 1: the weapons and for all the growth that we saw early,
- 2:33Speaker 1: it isn't there. John Oser, You've had a night to
- 2:37Speaker 1: sleep on this. What do you think of this game
- 2:39Speaker 1: in summer before we get into big things. Well, you
- 2:43Speaker 1: asked Brian, you know about the defense and it I
- 2:48Speaker 1: think we do know what the defense is, and I
- 2:50Speaker 1: don't think it was. It was dramatically different at its
- 2:53Speaker 1: core on Sunday than what we expected. It gave up
- 2:56Speaker 1: a lot of yards it had getting the Texans off field,
- 2:59Speaker 1: But to Brion's point, what it was asked to do
- 3:03Speaker 1: was break serve a couple of times, get you the ball,
- 3:05Speaker 1: get you some opportunities. That's where it went arriving. When
- 3:08Speaker 1: they got those opportunities, they had a chance to get
- 3:11Speaker 1: ten points out of them and got none. It turned
- 3:14Speaker 1: the game so credit to the defense, but I'm with
- 3:17Speaker 1: Brian in terms of the offense. There are just some
- 3:21Speaker 1: concerns about what it can get done in such situations.
- 3:26Speaker 1: And that was the story of the game on Sunday. Yes,
- 3:30Speaker 1: big time concerns as we get into Big Things and
- 3:32Speaker 1: Big Thing one is the offense missed opportunities to take
- 3:35Speaker 1: the lead at the end of the first half and
- 3:37Speaker 1: at the end of the third quarter. They have to
- 3:39Speaker 1: be able to carry this team when you have guys
- 3:41Speaker 1: like Josh Allen, Miles, Jack and c. J. Henderson out, Hey,
- 3:46Speaker 1: min show, how do you get this team out of
- 3:48Speaker 1: a four game losing streak. Um, I don't know. Um,
- 3:53Speaker 1: that's a good question. We were actually just talking about
- 3:55Speaker 1: that in locker room, trying to figure out, you know
- 3:57Speaker 1: what it is, what's missing, um, because you know, we
- 3:59Speaker 1: have moments where we feel really good about it, moments
- 4:02Speaker 1: that it's just all good kind of and we just
- 4:04Speaker 1: gotta figure out how to be more consistent. Um, And
- 4:08Speaker 1: you know, keep moving forward, talking all three phases of
- 4:14Speaker 1: this Jaguars team on Big Things today. Big thing too,
- 4:17Speaker 1: you guess it is defense. They did their part. They
- 4:20Speaker 1: came to play with three key players out However, Avery
- 4:24Speaker 1: Avery Jones said it wasn't good enough. They still have
- 4:27Speaker 1: to continue making those big plays to help the offense out.
- 4:31Speaker 1: We need to understand to gain the momentum, we have
- 4:33Speaker 1: to make the plays. And um, that's one of the
- 4:36Speaker 1: things you know, me and other captains on the team
- 4:39Speaker 1: are trying to stress is that we gotta go out
- 4:41Speaker 1: there and make those plays because momentum just just doesn't happen.
- 4:45Speaker 1: We can't go out there and you know, hope for
- 4:48Speaker 1: a bad call or hope for them to penalize themselves.
- 4:52Speaker 1: So I mean, we can gain a momentum. I definitely
- 4:55Speaker 1: believe that. I felt like if we eliminate the explosives
- 4:59Speaker 1: will be a whole better defense and big thing. Three
- 5:05Speaker 1: special teams five weeks by Pickers Possibly you need a six.
- 5:11Speaker 1: Dougrown attempts to explain what the special team situation is
- 5:15Speaker 1: right now for the Jaguars. I think we'll we'll figure
- 5:19Speaker 1: that out as as as we go. I mean, obviously
- 5:22Speaker 1: it's it's you know, with the way the ball was
- 5:23Speaker 1: being kicked, it's it's, you know, it just doesn't have
- 5:26Speaker 1: any you know, he said he just didn't have any pop.
- 5:28Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying in his leg, all right,
- 5:33Speaker 1: we go back up to big thing one, which is
- 5:35Speaker 1: the offense defense hands over two turnovers, Jaguars get two
- 5:39Speaker 1: extra possessions. John Osan, you said it before. No points
- 5:43Speaker 1: the storyline of the game. They were handed momentum and
- 5:46Speaker 1: couldn't do anything with it. It absolutely was and I
- 5:50Speaker 1: Doug mentioned in in his post game, and he didn't
- 5:54Speaker 1: want to go completely there, but he talked about needing
- 5:58Speaker 1: to take advantage of his opportunities to talked about playing
- 6:00Speaker 1: on a margin, and when coaches talk about that, they're
- 6:04Speaker 1: they're looking for the best way possible to say the players.
- 6:10Speaker 1: There's not enough elite playmakers all over the roster to
- 6:15Speaker 1: make plays above the XS and os. They were in
- 6:17Speaker 1: position to do it. When they talk about execution, that's
- 6:20Speaker 1: what that's talking about. It showed up in key situations
- 6:24Speaker 1: on Sunday. I thought, just not the playmakers above the
- 6:29Speaker 1: XS and ose guys. I don't know if if minshew,
- 6:31Speaker 1: I don't know if it's if it's a third you know,
- 6:34Speaker 1: something in there wasn't happening in terms of execution in
- 6:38Speaker 1: big moments. And uh, that's what you keep hearing in
- 6:41Speaker 1: post games from the coaches and players trying to talk
- 6:44Speaker 1: about consistency. That's what that is, Brian. You know, two thoughts.
- 6:50Speaker 1: The first is I wonder if Minshew has some trouble
- 6:52Speaker 1: seeing the field, especially in type quarters. After the Bengals game,
- 6:57Speaker 1: there were some questions and Jake Gruden said, look, he
- 7:00Speaker 1: had Carlos Dunlap in there with his big frame and
- 7:03Speaker 1: the long arms and clogging passing lanes, and and I
- 7:07Speaker 1: just I left that last week thinking he may have
- 7:09Speaker 1: trouble seeing in some congested areas because look, he moved
- 7:12Speaker 1: the ball up and down the field. But when they
- 7:14Speaker 1: got into that tight red area, you know, they couldn't function.
- 7:18Speaker 1: They didn't function. And that that's what the story of
- 7:21Speaker 1: this game is right now. Uh, their inability to function
- 7:25Speaker 1: when they got into those critical situations. The other thought
- 7:30Speaker 1: is we talked about a formula. You know, we've talked
- 7:32Speaker 1: about run the ball, and James Robinson after the first
- 7:35Speaker 1: quarter was averaging over five yards per carry. The Texans
- 7:38Speaker 1: defense came in statistically the worst in the league against
- 7:41Speaker 1: the run. The game was close. How do you get
- 7:44Speaker 1: away from running the football? And I know there's coach speak,
- 7:47Speaker 1: and we'll hear from Jay Gruden and on Wednesday he'll
- 7:50Speaker 1: talk about it. Probably got away from it, but that
- 7:53Speaker 1: was critical to me because you keep this thing balanced.
- 7:55Speaker 1: It's a fourth straight game. The Gardner Minshew has been
- 7:58Speaker 1: asked to throw the ball more than forty times a game,
- 8:00Speaker 1: and it's four straight losses. I think I saw stat
- 8:02Speaker 1: that when you have to throw up for three hundred yards.
- 8:04Speaker 1: Was he won in four and three yard games? Maybe
- 8:07Speaker 1: in five. His formula is not to line up like
- 8:10Speaker 1: Pat Mahomes and chuck the ball all over the field.
- 8:13Speaker 1: His formula is to play a smart, controlled game with
- 8:16Speaker 1: a running game and a defense and take advantage of
- 8:19Speaker 1: opportunities when they're given. Well, none of that worked yesterday. Yeah, Brianon,
- 8:25Speaker 1: I thought you had a really good point yesterday in
- 8:27Speaker 1: rapid Recap and we were asking about, you know, we're
- 8:29Speaker 1: still every single week asking did Gardner prove that he
- 8:32Speaker 1: was the franchise quarterback for this game? And you mentioned
- 8:35Speaker 1: that third downplay and that fourth downplay in the red zone,
- 8:38Speaker 1: especially the fourth downplay when Gardner Mintion just completely exits
- 8:42Speaker 1: the play. It kind of was telling it Sometimes, why
- 8:45Speaker 1: aren't you trusting your quarterback right there? Especially in a
- 8:48Speaker 1: moment like that it's a question only they can answer.
- 8:53Speaker 1: But you have to wonder do they not trust him?
- 8:55Speaker 1: Do they not think that he can get the job done.
- 8:58Speaker 1: It's a question that I asked if the time, Um,
- 9:01Speaker 1: they'll say no, but their decision makes you say, well,
- 9:06Speaker 1: maybe the answer is yes. They're you know, we're trying
- 9:09Speaker 1: to shake it up. We're trying to figure away to
- 9:11Speaker 1: make a play to change things up. I mean, I
- 9:12Speaker 1: understand all of that. And sometimes a good play is
- 9:16Speaker 1: called and it just it doesn't happen for whatever reason.
- 9:19Speaker 1: I understand it all. But as we've said, the story
- 9:21Speaker 1: of the season is is Gardner Minshew the franchise going forward?
- 9:26Speaker 1: Will he perform well enough this year to convince you
- 9:30Speaker 1: that you don't need to use your draft capital next
- 9:32Speaker 1: year on one of those quarterbacks? Well, okay, the first
- 9:36Speaker 1: two weeks I was in, he had convinced me there's
- 9:39Speaker 1: something there. And even the throw yesterday, the beautiful throw
- 9:42Speaker 1: that he made to Heeling Cole. Okay, Um, but in
- 9:47Speaker 1: my book they're one and four, but he's two and three.
- 9:50Speaker 1: He's proved it twice. He's got eleven more games. It's
- 9:54Speaker 1: no matter what anyone says, the story of the season
- 9:57Speaker 1: is up to him. What I think, what John thinks,
- 9:59Speaker 1: just to an opinion, what the fans think, just an opinion.
- 10:02Speaker 1: This whole season is about him proving he is. It's
- 10:05Speaker 1: a unique opportunity for a young quarterback to go out
- 10:08Speaker 1: there with it on the line and take it. We'll
- 10:12Speaker 1: see whether he does or not. I'm not gonna wait
- 10:14Speaker 1: in and say he can't. Right now, the last three
- 10:16Speaker 1: weeks he hasn't. Yes big time opportunity. And John, I
- 10:21Speaker 1: don't want to get too much into this because it's
- 10:24Speaker 1: your hot take, but this defense showed up with three
- 10:27Speaker 1: key players out. It gives you some promise that guys
- 10:30Speaker 1: we didn't see a lot of such as Sydney Jones,
- 10:33Speaker 1: might have it in this defense just might be okay
- 10:36Speaker 1: even with those guys out. Yeah, it did. I don't
- 10:40Speaker 1: want to ruin my hot take, so I mean, because
- 10:42Speaker 1: it is, it is hot. It is a hot take.
- 10:46Speaker 1: It was a It was a very good effort by
- 10:49Speaker 1: to defense. Uh. Credit to Dwayne Smooth for having one
- 10:52Speaker 1: of his better games. They got Watson off the spot
- 10:55Speaker 1: a little bit. Again, I think the storyline with the
- 10:58Speaker 1: defense was brought it best effort and didn't just didn't
- 11:03Speaker 1: have the Miles Jack, the Josh Allen, the C. J.
- 11:07Speaker 1: Henderson to completely completely shut it down. But shout out
- 11:12Speaker 1: to Sidney Jones, a guy who I, frankly, I'm not
- 11:18Speaker 1: even sure I knew he was on the roster last Sunday,
- 11:21Speaker 1: and he was the player of the game for the Jaguars,
- 11:23Speaker 1: So credit to him. I wish had been more, I
- 11:26Speaker 1: wish had been enough breakups go ahead. He and he
- 11:33Speaker 1: and Daniel Thomas are exciting young players. I mean, Sidney
- 11:37Speaker 1: Jones was a second round pick and he had some
- 11:38Speaker 1: issues when he was at Washington, or he might have
- 11:41Speaker 1: been a first round pick, so he might They might
- 11:43Speaker 1: have found a guy to put opposite C. J. Henderson,
- 11:46Speaker 1: and safety has been an issue with Jared Wilson made
- 11:48Speaker 1: it better yesterday. But Daniel Thomas is a guy that
- 11:51Speaker 1: I know the scouting staff had really strong feelings about,
- 11:54Speaker 1: and he proved it with seven tackles. You know, big picture,
- 11:58Speaker 1: not this week or next week, but overall, there's reasons
- 12:02Speaker 1: for optimism for the roster in general because there are
- 12:05Speaker 1: a lot of exciting young players that look like they'll
- 12:07Speaker 1: develop into good players over time. YEP could not agree more.
- 12:13Speaker 1: We saw some potential yesterday on the field, but nonetheless
- 12:16Speaker 1: a lost in Houston thirty to fourteen. The Jaguars drop
- 12:20Speaker 1: to one and four on the season. When we come back,
- 12:22Speaker 1: some highlights from that game coming up on jack Stripe Time.

- 14:17Speaker 1: nineteen seventy nine. Here we go. I like from that
- 14:25Speaker 1: thirty to fourteen lost in Houston Texas. We go to
- 14:28Speaker 1: the second quarter, the very end, forty three seconds left.
- 14:32Speaker 1: Jaguars have the chance to take the lead or tie
- 14:34Speaker 1: the game right before halftime. Ness to say that did
- 14:38Speaker 1: not happen. Look in that way, China has it. Houston
- 14:46Speaker 1: defenders ready for it as well. Stephen haus goes out
- 14:50Speaker 1: to attempt his first field goal as a member of
- 14:54Speaker 1: Jacksonville is from twenty four yards away and Housa is
- 14:58Speaker 1: no good. Yeah, alrighty, So Texas to get the ball back.
- 15:06Speaker 1: Texas turnover, but not for long. The first tone of
- 15:09Speaker 1: the first turnover of the day equals no points outside
- 15:14Speaker 1: and Fuller and Cooks take a deep shot. Watson has
- 15:18Speaker 1: time for the middle and it is picked off Sydney Jones.
- 15:24Speaker 1: Sydney Jones hasn't and checks and bills getting the ball
- 15:28Speaker 1: right back, stay on side, get those hands up in
- 15:31Speaker 1: the middle if he has to drive the ball. And
- 15:38Speaker 1: this kick is no good already, So we enter halftime
- 15:45Speaker 1: to score the same ten to seven. Onto the third quarter,
- 15:49Speaker 1: It's now thirteen to seven. Turnover number two, still no points.
- 15:56Speaker 1: I'll play fake. Watson has all day looking deep for
- 16:00Speaker 1: will Fuller and it's chuckled and picked off. Intercepted by
- 16:04Speaker 1: Jared Wilson. Town the sideline Wilson had made failed, still
- 16:09Speaker 1: calling Wilson at the thirty. Try to cut it back
- 16:13Speaker 1: the other way, and it's the Shawn Watson who makes
- 16:16Speaker 1: the tackle. Confidence in the kicker. They go for it
- 16:20Speaker 1: on fourth and one min She runs out to the left,
- 16:25Speaker 1: Robinson takes the snap. Robinson who lost the football? What
- 16:32Speaker 1: is that? On fourth and one? He was gonna throw it.
- 16:36Speaker 1: He was going to be the cornerback. I just cringe
- 16:39Speaker 1: watching that one. That fourth in one play. Onto the
- 16:42Speaker 1: fourth quarter, it's twenty three to fourteen Houston Texans, and
- 16:47Speaker 1: here comes Whitney. Merciless, very scary man makes She steps
- 16:55Speaker 1: up in trouble, hit hard, lost the football. Merciless has it,
- 16:59Speaker 1: had effort, smack him down. Ball came out again after
- 17:03Speaker 1: they hit by Ifford. Merciless lost it. Houston says they
- 17:06Speaker 1: still have it. No signal yet. Texans get the ball.
- 17:11Speaker 1: Give the technical Jacob Housta roo game doubtful, but it works.
- 17:24Speaker 1: Cooks and he can run all the way to the house.
- 17:26Speaker 1: He will hell they're saying to Chase. Oh yeah, it's
- 17:32Speaker 1: what yard touchdown and for Cooks, his first as a
- 17:36Speaker 1: member of the Texans steps up that that touchdown and
- 17:44Speaker 1: oh those highlights they hurt, They hurt me, John Oser,
- 17:48Speaker 1: that fourth in one play makes well, you gotta be
- 17:56Speaker 1: able to get the ball upright from forty yards. So
- 17:59Speaker 1: I don't expect Stephen Housh is going to be around
- 18:01Speaker 1: very long. Frankly, um, you know, and fine, whatever, But
- 18:07Speaker 1: that just kind of shows you the last few weeks
- 18:10Speaker 1: what sort of season it's been. When that sort of
- 18:13Speaker 1: thing happens, you wonder what's going to go right in
- 18:16Speaker 1: terms of the fourth of one call. I kind of
- 18:18Speaker 1: go back to something Brian said in the open um
- 18:22Speaker 1: a lot of checkdowns from Minshew yesterday. We've always talked
- 18:26Speaker 1: about the arm strength thing, and you know, I've been
- 18:29Speaker 1: struggling all night, stuggling for a week or two really
- 18:32Speaker 1: to try to put Gardner in perspective and try to
- 18:36Speaker 1: figure out what I think about him. And I I
- 18:40Speaker 1: want him to be the franchise guy because I like him.
- 18:43Speaker 1: But you wonder about the arms strength, what defenses are
- 18:48Speaker 1: taking away that, as Brian said, they didn't russ or
- 18:52Speaker 1: didn't have him throwing the ball on fourth and one,
- 18:55Speaker 1: staying within the confines of their offense. I hope that
- 18:59Speaker 1: he can answer that question positively in the next few weeks,
- 19:02Speaker 1: because I do think it's becoming depressing issue for the team. Well,
- 19:07Speaker 1: here was the question I asked yesterday. If Deshaun Watson
- 19:11Speaker 1: was my quarterback, do I win? And the question the
- 19:15Speaker 1: answer to me was yeah, because look at the difference
- 19:17Speaker 1: in arm strength. I mean, he just the ball pops
- 19:19Speaker 1: out of his hand. He makes the throws with authority,
- 19:22Speaker 1: and the Texans never on fourth down and one like
- 19:26Speaker 1: that would have taken the ball out of his hands.
- 19:28Speaker 1: He's their elite playmaker. You need that at that position.
- 19:32Speaker 1: The Jaguars don't have it right now, which is why
- 19:34Speaker 1: they're so inconsistent. Again, governerment isn't the only reason that
- 19:38Speaker 1: they didn't win yesterday. The offense failed in a couple
- 19:41Speaker 1: of key places and on the sidelines. From a play
- 19:44Speaker 1: calling perspective, however, when you watch the ball leave Watson's arm,
- 19:49Speaker 1: at least I do I say, I gotta have that arm.
- 19:51Speaker 1: Go get me that arm. Because with the playmakers that
- 19:54Speaker 1: I have roster now, right with DJ Shark, I can
- 19:58Speaker 1: I can take my show to chart. I don't have
- 20:00Speaker 1: to take what they give me, which was all the checkdowns.
- 20:03Speaker 1: I'm just getting it to Chart because he's gonna run
- 20:05Speaker 1: by everybody that's not in the Jaguars playbook right now.
- 20:08Speaker 1: He doesn't have the arm strength to just take those
- 20:11Speaker 1: deep shots with the safety over the top and let
- 20:13Speaker 1: Chart go get it. You just you need that arm strength.
- 20:16Speaker 1: It just is what it is. It is and fairness,
- 20:22Speaker 1: and I'm sorry, I just sort of clothes Brian's thought
- 20:28Speaker 1: my senses last couple of games that that issue leads
- 20:32Speaker 1: to some of the stuff we had in the pocket.
- 20:33Speaker 1: He gets hit, he gets hit from merciless from behind. Uh.
- 20:37Speaker 1: Not being able to make some of the throws down field,
- 20:40Speaker 1: you start looking for things, you start waiting for things
- 20:42Speaker 1: to happen, and that seems to be what's causing some
- 20:45Speaker 1: of the pocket stuff. Again, there are much smarter football
- 20:48Speaker 1: minds than mine out there analyzing this, but that's what
- 20:51Speaker 1: it feels like. And boy, again, I hope that in
- 20:56Speaker 1: the next few weeks I think that it's when it's
- 20:58Speaker 1: going to decide this thing fixed or seven weeks, I
- 21:01Speaker 1: hope that gets thicked. You wonder if you will, right
- 21:06Speaker 1: and John, I go back to the halftime interview on
- 21:10Speaker 1: CBS when doub Brown says, we are going to go
- 21:13Speaker 1: for it on fourth and one in those plays in
- 21:15Speaker 1: the second half because they're almost forced to. You can
- 21:17Speaker 1: only talk so much about this kicking game, but they
- 21:20Speaker 1: were kind of placed against the wall. You had to
- 21:22Speaker 1: go for those plays and you had to kind of
- 21:24Speaker 1: be creative because you couldn't trust on your kicking game. Yeah,
- 21:30Speaker 1: you know the pop in the leg quote. You know again,
- 21:32Speaker 1: I don't know Stephen Ashka is he He's had a good,
- 21:36Speaker 1: long career. I wish him the best, but you sort
- 21:39Speaker 1: of wish the pop in the leg had been mentioned
- 21:42Speaker 1: before the game. I'm not sure I've ever seen short
- 21:46Speaker 1: from forty nine in the NFL, So that's got to
- 21:48Speaker 1: get picked. And yeah, I don't mean to jump all
- 21:51Speaker 1: over the gay, but that's got to get fixed. Yes,
- 21:54Speaker 1: big time. And those are our highlight from Houston, Texas.

- 24:17Speaker 1: with Bernie Wood Fired grill hot takes Brian Sexton Europe.
- 24:24Speaker 1: When the game was in the balance, in other words,
- 24:27Speaker 1: when the Jaguars were within his score, which is into
- 24:29Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, J J. Watt was a non factor.
- 24:33Speaker 1: Juwan Taylor handled him and handled him with ease. Right,
- 24:38Speaker 1: I get it. Wats in his tenth season. He's not
- 24:40Speaker 1: the same NFL Defensive Player of the Year that he
- 24:43Speaker 1: has been in the past, but he's still a really
- 24:45Speaker 1: good football player and capable of wrecking your game. Plan
- 24:49Speaker 1: and Taylor handled him. Whether it was the outside or
- 24:51Speaker 1: the inside. I'm gonna tell you that penalty that he
- 24:53Speaker 1: got the Taylor got for holding on what that to
- 24:56Speaker 1: me was what complaining to the officials and then give
- 25:00Speaker 1: in the end, he ducked underneath. If you go back
- 25:02Speaker 1: and watch it, the shoulder and just bought that holding penalty.
- 25:06Speaker 1: That was Juwan Taylor is one of the reasons why
- 25:09Speaker 1: you should be excited about this offense and the young
- 25:12Speaker 1: offensive line that's played pretty good. Kim didn't have his
- 25:14Speaker 1: best day yesterday. He got beat by Whitney Merciless on
- 25:17Speaker 1: that sack, but I'm telling you, Juwan Taylor, it was
- 25:20Speaker 1: fun to watch him handle a guy who has handled
- 25:23Speaker 1: Jaguars offensive tackles for years. The offensive line of reason
- 25:31Speaker 1: for optimism and John Osan, do you have another kind
- 25:35Speaker 1: of sort of reason for optism? Yeah, And I'm optimistic
- 25:40Speaker 1: about this defense question Mark. Yeah. And uh, I am
- 25:46Speaker 1: actually encouraged. And I have to say that, and uh
- 25:51Speaker 1: with a caveat of there's a ceiling for how good
- 25:55Speaker 1: this defense is going to be this year because of
- 25:58Speaker 1: what I've talked about all all offseason and all season,
- 26:02Speaker 1: the limited number of elite second contract guys. You've really
- 26:06Speaker 1: got Miles Jack in that category. Maybe Schobert, we'll see,
- 26:10Speaker 1: but yesterday, to make some plays to keep ye in
- 26:15Speaker 1: it without Josh Allen, without Miles Jack, without c. J. Henderson,
- 26:20Speaker 1: very arguably their best three players on all three levels
- 26:23Speaker 1: of the defense, to gut it out, stay in it,
- 26:27Speaker 1: and keep the thing afloat without those guys. Again, grading
- 26:32Speaker 1: on a curve a little bit here. I don't think
- 26:34Speaker 1: this is gonna be a top fifteen playing defense rest
- 26:36Speaker 1: of the season, but maybe they can get by the
- 26:39Speaker 1: end into that twenty range where you like what you
- 26:43Speaker 1: see going forward with this bunch, So encourage question mark Glenn. Okay,
- 26:52Speaker 1: that's fine. I understand the question marks. My hot take
- 26:55Speaker 1: goes a little bit before you, or it goes along
- 26:58Speaker 1: with your hot take. I guess I should say the
- 27:00Speaker 1: Jaguars will beat the Lions on Sunday. There I said it.
- 27:04Speaker 1: I don't know why, but I'm feeling it. I think
- 27:06Speaker 1: they match up well against the Lions. I don't think
- 27:09Speaker 1: the Lions are anything you should be scared about their
- 27:11Speaker 1: one in three coming off the bye week, and we
- 27:13Speaker 1: have that encouragement from the defense that we saw it's safe,
- 27:16Speaker 1: I think to assume you're gonna get at least one
- 27:19Speaker 1: of those three guys Josh Allen Miles, Jack C. J.
- 27:22Speaker 1: Henderson back this week. Matthew Stafford, Adrian Pearson, Danny A. Mondola.
- 27:28Speaker 1: I get their big names, but they should they scare
- 27:31Speaker 1: you this season. At some point you're gonna have to
- 27:34Speaker 1: stop the bleeding, go get a win against the Lions.
- 27:37Speaker 1: The schedule has shifted up. They then go to the
- 27:39Speaker 1: Los Angeles Chargers after that and then have a bye week.
- 27:42Speaker 1: Get a win before the bye. That's my hot fight
- 27:45Speaker 1: and I'm feeling it. Brian, you agree, well, I agree
- 27:51Speaker 1: with the idea that the Lions don't scare people. However,
- 27:55Speaker 1: that quarterback has a big arm, and if the Jaguars
- 27:57Speaker 1: can't get pressure on Stafford, they've got an of weapons
- 28:00Speaker 1: to make things very very interesting. So you know this
- 28:04Speaker 1: is one of those games flip a coin, right, if
- 28:07Speaker 1: they get a couple of players back, I agree with
- 28:09Speaker 1: you they should be able to. But Matt Stafford has
- 28:12Speaker 1: that arm and he can put the ball all over
- 28:14Speaker 1: the field. We saw it in yes, A big time
- 28:18Speaker 1: quarterback coming to Jacksonville on Sunday, a home game finally
- 28:22Speaker 1: here for the Jaguars when we come back some NFL
- 28:26Speaker 1: crazy week and go ahead. I just was, is it official?
- 28:30Speaker 1: Have they moved the Jaguars up a week to go
- 28:33Speaker 1: in their bye week to l A and then have
- 28:34Speaker 1: the bye week the following week? I heard that, but
- 28:37Speaker 1: I didn't see it indeed official. Yes, it is official.
- 28:41Speaker 1: So if you had bye week plan, go ahead and
- 28:43Speaker 1: change them, because yes, that has been switched. Brian, cancel
- 28:48Speaker 1: the plane tickets. You heard it here first, folks, when

- 30:44Speaker 1: Drive time for a few short, short moments as we
- 30:46Speaker 1: get into some NFL headlines from the weekend. Brian Sexton
- 30:50Speaker 1: take it away well quickly, how many people remember Bill
- 30:54Speaker 1: Belichick was the head coach of the Cleveland Browns. I
- 30:57Speaker 1: mean that that seems like eons ago. He's obviously established
- 31:01Speaker 1: himself is the best head coach in the league history.
- 31:03Speaker 1: Was six championships now, but there was a time when
- 31:06Speaker 1: he was the head coach of the Browns and got
- 31:08Speaker 1: fired before they left to go to Baltimore. However, the
- 31:11Speaker 1: last time that the Browns were four and one was
- 31:16Speaker 1: when he Bill Belichick was their head coach. And I
- 31:19Speaker 1: would guess there is a large portion of the NFL
- 31:22Speaker 1: fan base that is too young to remember when Bill
- 31:26Speaker 1: Belichick wore orange and brown Up next, double trouble the
- 31:30Speaker 1: Falcons late last night making it official they have fired
- 31:35Speaker 1: their head coach, Dan Quinn and and this is a
- 31:38Speaker 1: bit unusual, the general manager, Thomas dmitriof was let go
- 31:42Speaker 1: as well. So here's the thing. A really wise football
- 31:45Speaker 1: guy once said to me that one of the worst
- 31:48Speaker 1: things that can happen is for a team to lose
- 31:50Speaker 1: the Super Bowl, because they never seemed to get over
- 31:53Speaker 1: it the next season. It kind of drags along with
- 31:56Speaker 1: them and they feel sorry for themselves and the organization
- 31:59Speaker 1: just has a hangover from it. Well, everyone remembers a
- 32:01Speaker 1: couple of years ago when the Falcons lost. They Falcons
- 32:04Speaker 1: lost after leading three. You realize since that moment their
- 32:07Speaker 1: fourteen and twenty five, they've never overcome it. And the
- 32:11Speaker 1: O and five this season is why. Obviously dan Quinn
- 32:15Speaker 1: was released, but if they had just held on and
- 32:17Speaker 1: won the Super Bowl, this's obviously would have been avoided.
- 32:21Speaker 1: Both men let go last night and finally to not
- 32:25Speaker 1: for long league talk about a team that lost the
- 32:26Speaker 1: Super Bowl last year. The Niners are struggling with injuries.
- 32:30Speaker 1: Their defensive line has been decimated by the loss of
- 32:33Speaker 1: Nick Bosa, the Forest Buckner they traded away. D Ford
- 32:36Speaker 1: isn't there, Solomon Thomas has gone, and Jimmy Garoppolo had
- 32:40Speaker 1: a high ankle sprain and yesterday he was benched in
- 32:44Speaker 1: that loss at home to the Miami Dolphins. Now they're
- 32:46Speaker 1: talking this morning like the ankle was bothering him, and
- 32:49Speaker 1: maybe it was, but Garoppolo didn't play well in the
- 32:52Speaker 1: fourth quarter of the Super Bowl and hasn't played well
- 32:55Speaker 1: since he's benched. It'll be a story, as John likes
- 32:58Speaker 1: to say, until it's not. And those are your headlines.
- 33:02Speaker 1: Oh and by the way, the Jaguars are playing the
- 33:04Speaker 1: next two weeks and the bye week has been moved
- 33:06Speaker 1: back a week. That's official. There you go. There's the
- 33:10Speaker 1: fourth headline to go along with a Dak Prescott broken ankle,
- 33:14Speaker 1: that last drive and Sunday night football vikings and Seahawks.
- 33:18Speaker 1: If you haven't watched that, go watch it. Russell Wilson
- 33:21Speaker 1: is having an insane season and that wraps up our
- 33:24Speaker 1: drive time on a Monday morning. We'll be back on
- 33:26Speaker 1: Wednesday morning. Stay tuned for head coach Doug Browns press
- 33:30Speaker 1: conference this afternoon. We'll see then. M h.
