- 0:29Speaker 2: Welcome in a Jaguars postgame presented by Florida Home AC
- 0:32Speaker 2: called Florida home AC today official air conditioning partner of
- 0:35Speaker 2: the Jacksonville Jaguars.
- 0:37Speaker 3: Final score in Week eighteen.
- 0:39Speaker 2: Titans twenty eight, Jaguars twenty the Jaguars finished with a
- 0:43Speaker 2: nine and eight record and they missed the playoffs. After
- 0:46Speaker 2: starting eight and three, they lost five of the last
- 0:48Speaker 2: six games. The Jaguars for about a three hour stretch
- 0:51Speaker 2: in Week twelve after going to that eight and three record,
- 0:54Speaker 2: had the number one seed before the second window games
- 0:58Speaker 2: that day. And there's been a disaster the last month
- 1:01Speaker 2: and a half and it ended today in Nashville, JP, Shadwick,
- 1:05Speaker 2: Mike Dempsey Here in Jacksonville. Fred Taylor is on the
- 1:07Speaker 2: line with us and man I just Fred. They had chances,
- 1:12Speaker 2: They had chances in this game, they had third and
- 1:14Speaker 2: goal with the one, they had fourth and goal at
- 1:17Speaker 2: the one, they couldn't score the touchdown of the end.
- 1:19Speaker 2: That's just one of many on the list today. However,
- 1:23Speaker 2: either way, you cut this one up and slice it
- 1:25Speaker 2: up today. The Jaguars are at home next week.
- 1:29Speaker 4: Yeah, man, hey, Mike AJP, Hey everyone out there listening,
- 1:34Speaker 4: and happy New Year. I think this is not how
- 1:36Speaker 4: we wanted to start the new year. But in the NFL,
- 1:41Speaker 4: you get what you earn. You have to earn it
- 1:43Speaker 4: on the field. There are no freebies and opportunities were
- 1:47Speaker 4: they're late, they didn't capitalize, and they'll be going on
- 1:53Speaker 4: a vacation for a couple of months.
- 1:55Speaker 5: Yeah, the details are the details, Fred, but the big
- 1:59Speaker 5: picture to me is the most disappointing collapse in the
- 2:02Speaker 5: history of the franchise. I mean, you're eight and three three,
- 2:04Speaker 5: you're playing for the number one seed on Monday night
- 2:06Speaker 5: football in your house, and then you'll lose five of
- 2:08Speaker 5: the last six games and your run defense does not
- 2:12Speaker 5: even get on the plane apparently this week. I mean,
- 2:15Speaker 5: Derrick Henry has not been this all season long, and
- 2:20Speaker 5: you let him run it right down your throat.
- 2:22Speaker 6: The whole day.
- 2:22Speaker 5: I mean, it was a bad omen right from the
- 2:24Speaker 5: start when he got rolling on that very first offensive drive.
- 2:28Speaker 4: Correg Mike, I agree with you on that. I was
- 2:30Speaker 4: gonna lead with that and say, I've never been a
- 2:33Speaker 4: part of anything like this, not that far out, you know,
- 2:37Speaker 4: leading the league at eight and three and then somehow
- 2:40Speaker 4: managing to lose five of the last six in my
- 2:44Speaker 4: career in Jacksonville anyway, actually for that matter. But again,
- 2:48Speaker 4: it's the NFL is any given Sunday, as we just
- 2:51Speaker 4: witnessed today, those pesky Titans many they're way more than capable.
- 2:56Speaker 4: Dereck Henry, he put a stamp on it, and hopefully
- 2:59Speaker 4: whatever happens to his future going forward, he'll find a
- 3:03Speaker 4: team or either stay there in Tennessee. I don't know,
- 3:06Speaker 4: but he's still very much capable. I mean, it's just
- 3:10Speaker 4: unfortunately what was good to Jacksonville the first eleven twelve
- 3:15Speaker 4: weeks of the season actually had been a throwing in
- 3:18Speaker 4: their side to cap off the season because they were
- 3:21Speaker 4: ranked at the top in run defense. I mean, they
- 3:23Speaker 4: didn't allow any guy, any many players other than b
- 3:26Speaker 4: John Robinson for majority of the season to go over
- 3:29Speaker 4: one hundred and now you have Derek Henry, who had
- 3:31Speaker 4: an amazing game and pretty much provoked his will on
- 3:35Speaker 4: the defense.
- 3:37Speaker 2: Jaguars post game JP Shadwick, Mike Dempse, Fred Taylor after
- 3:40Speaker 2: Jaguars loss to the Titans twenty eight to twenty of,
- 3:43Speaker 2: the Jaguars are out of the playoffs. The Houston Texan
- 3:46Speaker 2: to the AFC South champions and the Jaguars loss secured
- 3:49Speaker 2: playoff first for both the Steelers and the Bills, so
- 3:52Speaker 2: the AFC teams are set for the playoffs. There still
- 3:56Speaker 2: could be some seating with a Buffalo and Miami playing
- 4:00Speaker 2: tonight to cap it off in the regular season. But yeah,
- 4:04Speaker 2: collapse for the Jaguars in the final month and I have,
- 4:06Speaker 2: but let's get into today, and especially in the second half,
- 4:09Speaker 2: the Jaguars in some key moments fell short. Fred, And
- 4:13Speaker 2: you know, they had a fourth and seven play. It
- 4:15Speaker 2: was on the first possession of the second half and
- 4:18Speaker 2: they throw a short crosser to Zay Jones. They didn't
- 4:21Speaker 2: settle for the field goal there. It was gonna be
- 4:23Speaker 2: a longer field goal, but the crossing route caught short
- 4:27Speaker 2: and tackled short. They had to turn it over on downs.
- 4:29Speaker 2: After twelve plays, Jags defense though, got to take the
- 4:32Speaker 2: three and out of the next drive, and then the
- 4:34Speaker 2: Jags drive down a ten play touchdown drive to get
- 4:37Speaker 2: it back within one score. Cisco gets the interception and
- 4:40Speaker 2: then it sets up the whole goal line situation where
- 4:43Speaker 2: they had the third and goal with the one, and
- 4:45Speaker 2: then the Lawrence leap was short on fourth and goal
- 4:47Speaker 2: with the one, and Jags defense again forced a punt.
- 4:50Speaker 2: So I mean second half of this game. I mean
- 4:53Speaker 2: the Jags defense. Yes, they gave up the run, but
- 4:57Speaker 2: they gave opportunities back to the offense all short that
- 5:00Speaker 2: in the second half.
- 5:01Speaker 4: Red Yeah, they did jp Uh. You know the most
- 5:06Speaker 4: mysterious thing to me seeing I have two points here,
- 5:10Speaker 4: Christian Kirk. You don't realize how valuable that guy is
- 5:14Speaker 4: until you realize it. And they certainly meant him. When
- 5:20Speaker 4: I'm talking about the deep ball, no deep ball, no
- 5:23Speaker 4: pressing up, no pressing the issue or enforcing the issue.
- 5:27Speaker 4: You only throw a DP to Calvin Ridley. Jay Jones
- 5:30Speaker 4: is capable. I don't see any D passes to him,
- 5:34Speaker 4: and when Ingram he's capable on a corner routes. All
- 5:37Speaker 4: these other different things. The offense was just a lot
- 5:42Speaker 4: of short, very methodical, short, short, short passes, seeming like
- 5:47Speaker 4: they never gained rhythm throughout the entire day, and Titans
- 5:51Speaker 4: just gave them everything underneath. They came up and they
- 5:53Speaker 4: tackle accordingly there in terms of the defense given them opportunity.
- 6:00Speaker 4: Certainly they're played by Fisco. Late. You had an opportunity
- 6:04Speaker 4: for twelve minutes left in the game, you had an opportunity.
- 6:06Speaker 4: He ran it down to the Titans twenty eight, third
- 6:10Speaker 4: and five, you get lud You get a break because
- 6:13Speaker 4: the the Titans were holding. You extended the drive. The
- 6:16Speaker 4: very next play, Travis dt and has a really good run.
- 6:19Speaker 4: But now Strange has a holding call. You're back to
- 6:22Speaker 4: the twenty eight. Then somehow you get it back to
- 6:25Speaker 4: the one and you have two opportunities there, third and goal,
- 6:28Speaker 4: fourth and goal. You fall short. So it's just a game, man,
- 6:32Speaker 4: And again what I said at the top, you get
- 6:35Speaker 4: what you earned. And because the way they play, they
- 6:38Speaker 4: get a vacation and they don't get another shot to
- 6:42Speaker 4: further their season. Just a very disappointing season.
- 6:46Speaker 5: If you ask me, Fred, what are you making the
- 6:48Speaker 5: last two offensive plays they had third and two and
- 6:52Speaker 5: you had Tim Jones looked like he was covered. Maybe
- 6:54Speaker 5: Trevor's throwing that one away because he threw it over
- 6:57Speaker 5: his head, but basically the same. It looked like at
- 7:00Speaker 5: least the same area of the field, and that past
- 7:03Speaker 5: that Evan Ingram didn't have a chance.
- 7:04Speaker 6: I didn't think.
- 7:05Speaker 5: I felt like, you know, at that point, you got
- 7:07Speaker 5: at least put it on somebody to even if it
- 7:11Speaker 5: gets intercepted, it doesn't really matter at that point, it's
- 7:13Speaker 5: no worse than a turnover on downs. What did you
- 7:15Speaker 5: make of the play calling and the final sequence.
- 7:18Speaker 4: Yeah, I think you're listening to the broadcast. You know
- 7:22Speaker 4: they're talking about Trevor's injuries. You know that he collected
- 7:26Speaker 4: over the last month and a half of the season,
- 7:28Speaker 4: ain'kle knee now shoulder affecting his accuracy, you know, and
- 7:34Speaker 4: the deep ball to Ridley. A few overthrows late right
- 7:39Speaker 4: there in the game. Couple overthrows. I don't love those
- 7:43Speaker 4: play calls. There was a situation earlier in the game.
- 7:47Speaker 4: I think it was thirty two. They did an in
- 7:50Speaker 4: and out double team on Ingram and allowed really to
- 7:54Speaker 4: escape and get the first down. Same thing there, they
- 7:57Speaker 4: know they're gonna go to their go to guys, and
- 8:00Speaker 4: Ingram has been that guy. He turned into Trevor's favorite
- 8:03Speaker 4: receiver once Kirk was in and out of the lineup.
- 8:07Speaker 4: So along with a bad throw and some really good
- 8:11Speaker 4: coverage on defense by the Titans, that's what you get
- 8:14Speaker 4: to end the game.
- 8:16Speaker 2: We've got plenty ahead recapping this one and this season.
- 8:20Speaker 2: The Jaguars fall in Week eighteen, twenty eight to twenty.
- 8:22Speaker 2: The final score Titans over the Jags. The Jaguars finished
- 8:25Speaker 2: nine and eight, but they miss the playoffs, and we're
- 8:29Speaker 2: out to Bucky Brooks. He's standing by in Nashville. He'll
- 8:33Speaker 2: visit with head coach Doug Peterson. After a disappointing end
- 8:37Speaker 2: to a disappointing stretch of football the final month and
- 8:40Speaker 2: a half, the Jaguars have lost in Week eighteen, and
- 8:43Speaker 2: this is Jaguars Post Game on Jaguars Radio. Jaguars Postgame
- 8:49Speaker 2: presented by Florida Home c continues J P. Shadwick with
- 8:52Speaker 2: Mike Dempsey and Fred Taylor from the Hundai Studios in
- 8:55Speaker 2: Jacksonville after a Jaguars loss in Nashville. Final score Titan
- 9:00Speaker 2: eight Jaguars twenty. The Jaguars finished nine and eight and
- 9:04Speaker 2: they missed the playoffs here in the twenty twenty three season.

- 9:18Speaker 2: Bucky Brooks is standing by in Nashville to visit with
- 9:21Speaker 2: Doug Peterson. Once he's done visiting with the media at
- 9:25Speaker 2: Nissan Stadium, he'll head down the hallway and catch up
- 9:27Speaker 2: with Bucky and we'll get his final thoughts after this
- 9:31Speaker 2: game today and obviously a frustrating ending to it. Derreck
- 9:35Speaker 2: Henry goes off and the running game for Tennessee and
- 9:38Speaker 2: what could be his final game. He actually addressed the
- 9:40Speaker 2: fans at Nissan Stadium on the microphone after the game.
- 9:42Speaker 2: But this one feels like it's a lot about the
- 9:45Speaker 2: Jaguars and the tackling issues they had today on defense
- 9:49Speaker 2: and then on the other side, a couple of giveaways
- 9:52Speaker 2: in the first half and just unable and key moments
- 9:55Speaker 2: late to key situations down the stretch to.
- 9:59Speaker 6: Be able to handle it.
- 10:00Speaker 2: And this is what you get, Fred, when you when
- 10:03Speaker 2: all those come together, even in a game like this,
- 10:06Speaker 2: a rivalry game on the road. Week eighteen, Tennessee was
- 10:10Speaker 2: not very good, but they were good enough today.
- 10:12Speaker 6: That's for sure.
- 10:14Speaker 4: That's certainly for sure.
- 10:15Speaker 6: JP.
- 10:16Speaker 4: I think I texted you early.
- 10:18Speaker 6: In the game.
- 10:20Speaker 4: It was at some point in the game I tested.
- 10:22Speaker 4: It was third and six, I believe, and Spears had
- 10:27Speaker 4: a really could have been it should have been a
- 10:29Speaker 4: run for loss right there. Yeah, And somehow thirty six
- 10:33Speaker 4: on the pass and he ended up scampering twenty eight
- 10:35Speaker 4: yard for a touchdown. And then later in the game,
- 10:40Speaker 4: I think the Titans showed that they wanted it more.
- 10:42Speaker 4: From the beginning of the game to the end of
- 10:44Speaker 4: the game, there was so much extra effort the lineman
- 10:48Speaker 4: going down field. One pay play that stands out to
- 10:51Speaker 4: me is a four minute drill after the Titans had
- 10:55Speaker 4: stopped the Jaguars, and the Titans get the ball from
- 10:58Speaker 4: the one they heard my heart snap count encroachment by
- 11:02Speaker 4: Hamilton that was at the seven minute mark. They drive
- 11:06Speaker 4: down the field and here they get him to a
- 11:08Speaker 4: third and six at the four minute mark. Trayvon Walker,
- 11:13Speaker 4: he sniffed out the screenplay. Somehow tanney Hill gets hit off.
- 11:17Speaker 4: They still had an opportunity to stop him at a
- 11:19Speaker 4: four yard loss, yet he gets the ball, he immediately
- 11:24Speaker 4: proceeds to the to the first down marker and his
- 11:27Speaker 4: lineman just pushes him forward. That extends the clock. That
- 11:31Speaker 4: showed me effort and a team that wanted it more.
- 11:34Speaker 4: The Jaguars defense, the Jaguars offense, the Jaguars as a whole.
- 11:40Speaker 4: I love my guys, I'm a Jaguar lifer. But they
- 11:42Speaker 4: got there. You know what kick today because you knew
- 11:48Speaker 4: this was a game that you had to win. You
- 11:51Speaker 4: knew what it was going to take, you knew the
- 11:53Speaker 4: effort that had to be displayed, you knew the physicality.
- 11:56Speaker 4: This is a Titans team that no they're not. They
- 11:59Speaker 4: had played well, but they're gonna get up for this game.
- 12:02Speaker 4: Each and every opportunity you went up there, you didn't
- 12:06Speaker 4: play your bet, you didn't out effort those guys, and
- 12:10Speaker 4: the bonus you get a free vacation. I gotta keep
- 12:13Speaker 4: going back to the vacation because I've never been in
- 12:16Speaker 4: a situation where I had an opportunity to win, to
- 12:18Speaker 4: get in and I got out. This totally hurts me,
- 12:23Speaker 4: and it hope I hope it hurts these guys and
- 12:25Speaker 4: they remember it.
- 12:28Speaker 3: So Fred who is that on right?
- 12:30Speaker 6: Like Tennessee players.
- 12:32Speaker 4: It's on everybody that's gonna get on that plane. It's
- 12:35Speaker 4: on the players, the coaches, it's on the injured guy.
- 12:38Speaker 4: It's on everybody. It's part of the ball. I mean,
- 12:42Speaker 4: you you you come together, you win together, you lose together.
- 12:46Speaker 4: I don't think the play calling was amazing. I don't
- 12:49Speaker 4: think it stunk. You know, the players got to make
- 12:52Speaker 4: the plays out there. Trevor has to play better. You know,
- 12:55Speaker 4: I'll give him a slight pass because of his injury.
- 12:57Speaker 4: But you know, one coach once point of time told me,
- 13:01Speaker 4: if you can play, you got to make the plays.
- 13:03Speaker 4: And that's just part of it. And he was out there.
- 13:06Speaker 4: I expected him to make the plays. That's how it goes,
- 13:10Speaker 4: especially in crunch time. So it's on the coaches, on
- 13:14Speaker 4: the players, on all those guys. I don't think any
- 13:16Speaker 4: of them make any excuses. They're gonna, you know, take
- 13:19Speaker 4: their leaguing and go and figure out a way to
- 13:22Speaker 4: get better in the off season, come back and hopefully
- 13:24Speaker 4: they can outlive the expectations. Because the expectations that everyone
- 13:30Speaker 4: had on them at the beginning of the year and
- 13:31Speaker 4: that they had on themselves fell short of it. And
- 13:35Speaker 4: that's just how it goes in the NFL when you
- 13:37Speaker 4: don't reach the ultimate stage. I fell short thirteen years
- 13:41Speaker 4: of my expectations. Hey, that's how it goes.
- 13:46Speaker 2: It's never fun, there's no doubt no matter how it comes.
- 13:49Speaker 2: You know, it can come like this, which is awful,
- 13:51Speaker 2: or you know, you can get eliminated in week twelve.
- 13:55Speaker 2: It's either way. Yeah, it's not where you want to be, not.
- 13:59Speaker 4: Where you want unfortunate, So unfortunate man, such you know,
- 14:05Speaker 4: just the expectation was there, the team was on a roll,
- 14:08Speaker 4: and you know, the last month, last month and a
- 14:11Speaker 4: half just showed you that the NFL is such a
- 14:13Speaker 4: beautiful sport man. And injuries things happened. Play called a
- 14:18Speaker 4: little luck here and there, and that determines you know,
- 14:22Speaker 4: it determines a lot. But these guys got to feel
- 14:25Speaker 4: a lot worse to think teams that they actually beat
- 14:28Speaker 4: during the season are gonna make the playoffs. Beating the Texans,
- 14:33Speaker 4: beating the Steelers, beating the Bills, all those things are
- 14:38Speaker 4: going off to the playoffs.
- 14:39Speaker 5: In absolutely fred as you look, and we got a
- 14:43Speaker 5: long off season to parse everything that the Jags need
- 14:47Speaker 5: to do. But I mean the quarterbacks, the focal point
- 14:50Speaker 5: of everything. What did you make of the season Trevor
- 14:53Speaker 5: Lawrence had based on your expectations, the way you finished
- 14:56Speaker 5: last season, and where does he need to go from here?
- 15:00Speaker 4: You know, I think Trevor was trending in an upward
- 15:06Speaker 4: trajectory prior to the injuries, you know, having all of
- 15:10Speaker 4: his weapons. He's the guy who was driving. And then
- 15:13Speaker 4: the injuries started to happen to himself. First day, I
- 15:16Speaker 4: think they happened to Day, then Trevor, and then Christian Kirk.
- 15:20Speaker 4: You know, a lot of guys in and out of
- 15:22Speaker 4: the line lineup, not necessarily offensive the offensive line for
- 15:26Speaker 4: having different guys in rotation, I think they did okay.
- 15:30Speaker 4: I think the PACT numbers were down this year. I
- 15:33Speaker 4: don't know the exact numbers, but just looking at game
- 15:36Speaker 4: the game each week, it seems that they had a
- 15:39Speaker 4: better season this year. And that's always a good sign
- 15:42Speaker 4: going forward with your franchise quarterback. But Trevor, he's gotten
- 15:47Speaker 4: better each year. I don't think he regressed this year. Unfortunately,
- 15:51Speaker 4: he did get beat up, and that's just part of
- 15:55Speaker 4: the game, right So Trevor, I go and tell him
- 15:59Speaker 4: every time I get an opportunity to see him in person.
- 16:02Speaker 4: I got you back. Yeah, I believe in you. I
- 16:05Speaker 4: think you're a guy to attend his franchise to where
- 16:08Speaker 4: they need to be. And I'm gonna be that way
- 16:10Speaker 4: until he shows me otherwise, and at this point he
- 16:12Speaker 4: hadn't shown me otherwise.
- 16:14Speaker 3: Plenty ahead.
- 16:15Speaker 2: Bucky Brooks standing by in Nashville to catch up with
- 16:18Speaker 2: head coach Doug Peterson after a Jaguars loss in Week eighteen.
- 16:21Speaker 2: Final score Titans twenty eight Jaguars twenty plenty more ahead

- 16:33Speaker 2: Game presented by Florida Home a C colch Florida Home
- 16:36Speaker 2: a C Today, official air conditioning partner of the Jacksonville Jaguars.
- 16:39Speaker 3: JP Shadwick, Mike deempse Fred Taylor.
- 16:42Speaker 2: We're at the Hyundai Studios in Jacksonville after a Jaguars
- 16:45Speaker 2: loss in Nashville twenty eight to twenty the final Titans
- 16:48Speaker 2: over the Jags, who were playing uphill a lot of
- 16:52Speaker 2: the game. The Jaguars had a ten to seven lead
- 16:54Speaker 2: in this game, had a three ninhing lead, trailed seven
- 16:57Speaker 2: to three, led ten to seven, and then Tennessee get
- 17:01Speaker 2: up fourteen to ten, then twenty one ten Jags got
- 17:05Speaker 2: a field goal before half to make it a one
- 17:07Speaker 2: score game, but then Tennessee on the first drive, Derrick
- 17:11Speaker 2: Henry goes sixty nine yards inside the five yard line.
- 17:15Speaker 2: They cap it off with a touchdown, and the Jags
- 17:18Speaker 2: just playing catch up a lot of the day and
- 17:20Speaker 2: they were unable to catch up with Tennessee.
- 17:22Speaker 6: And now the.
- 17:23Speaker 2: Jaguars are out of the playoffs altogether. The AFC teams
- 17:27Speaker 2: are set, some seatings still to be determined with the
- 17:30Speaker 2: remaining games today. So here we are. And yeah, like
- 17:36Speaker 2: you said, Mike got an off season to kind of
- 17:38Speaker 2: go through all the big picture reasons why and there
- 17:43Speaker 2: are many, but I mean, this team on the offensive side,
- 17:48Speaker 2: especially was dinged up a lot of this season right
- 17:51Speaker 2: the offensive line had a rotation on the left side
- 17:55Speaker 2: a lot left tackle and left guard. The wide receivers
- 17:58Speaker 2: were in and out. Jones missed a lot of games
- 18:01Speaker 2: this year, Christian Kirk the four games in a row
- 18:03Speaker 2: now actually five including this week to end the season.
- 18:07Speaker 2: And hey, those are big misses, but the next guy
- 18:11Speaker 2: has to step up and be able to fill some
- 18:14Speaker 2: of that capacity. And they just didn't feel like at
- 18:16Speaker 2: times they had enough to be able to do that.
- 18:18Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it turns out Kirk's absence the biggest
- 18:22Speaker 5: one that this team had. But you know, look, you
- 18:27Speaker 5: see Treylon Burk's making any plays for Tennessee. I mean
- 18:29Speaker 5: everyone's dealing with some injuries. The Jags were actually healthier
- 18:33Speaker 5: today in terms of personnel available than practically any point
- 18:38Speaker 5: this season, at least on the offensive side. So you know,
- 18:41Speaker 5: in the end, it is what it is in terms
- 18:44Speaker 5: of health. The team's got to overcome that. You got
- 18:47Speaker 5: to find a way to be one of the seven
- 18:48Speaker 5: best teams out of sixteen in your conference, and they
- 18:50Speaker 5: couldn't get it done. And yeah, those are some of
- 18:53Speaker 5: the reasons, but you can't use them as excuses, you know.
- 18:56Speaker 5: I mean, look at Cleveland's on their fourth quarterback and correct,
- 18:58Speaker 5: they had locked up a play off spot heading into
- 19:01Speaker 5: the week. So there's you know, it's just again it's
- 19:05Speaker 5: incredibly disappointing. Yeah, those are things that impacted the games
- 19:10Speaker 5: week in week out, but overall, you know, in the end,
- 19:14Speaker 5: they feel like excuses when that's just the nature of
- 19:18Speaker 5: the NFL.
- 19:20Speaker 6: Do you think fred.
- 19:23Speaker 4: I agree with Mike there Jp. You know, things are
- 19:27Speaker 4: going to come up and you got to plug and play.
- 19:30Speaker 4: You got to be able to go and make those
- 19:31Speaker 4: adjustments and you know, take your wounds however it come
- 19:35Speaker 4: or when you win, when guys are out. When you win,
- 19:38Speaker 4: when guys aren't out there is not a problem, you know,
- 19:41Speaker 4: So it has to be this thing. You have to
- 19:42Speaker 4: look at it the same way when you lose and
- 19:44Speaker 4: guys aren't out there. Most of the time it's highlighted
- 19:47Speaker 4: when guys aren't out there. But again, you know, you
- 19:50Speaker 4: have guys that you you you you take second looks at,
- 19:55Speaker 4: you put them out there, you try to get them
- 19:56Speaker 4: appropriate reps. Obviously, this game is a game of comfort work.
- 20:00Speaker 4: A lot of times coaches coach for that reason. That's
- 20:03Speaker 4: why they get played the big bucks. They have to
- 20:06Speaker 4: make the necessary adjustments to make sure their team on
- 20:11Speaker 4: that machine runs efficiently. But again, microscopically, we could look
- 20:17Speaker 4: at this team and say missing Christian Kirk was huge,
- 20:21Speaker 4: you know, from the time he went out, because if
- 20:24Speaker 4: you missed five games, and when you look at how
- 20:26Speaker 4: many games they lost in their last six, then you
- 20:29Speaker 4: would say, all right, well he was a huge piece
- 20:32Speaker 4: of or part of why they were winning and a
- 20:34Speaker 4: huge part of while they lost, and the same with
- 20:38Speaker 4: Jay Jones, and I wouldn't say the line not so much. Again,
- 20:42Speaker 4: they did a good job shuffling those guys, and again
- 20:46Speaker 4: I thought they did a decent job this year with
- 20:48Speaker 4: Trevor holding them up or keeping them upright, just overall. Man,
- 20:53Speaker 4: like Mike said, it is what it is. You gave
- 20:57Speaker 4: me a text him like do I have to work? Yeah?
- 21:00Speaker 4: I gotta work. I feel bad too, but it's part
- 21:05Speaker 4: of the game. JP. We can sit here and say, man,
- 21:09Speaker 4: but they they Again I go back to you get
- 21:12Speaker 4: what you earn on the field.
- 21:15Speaker 5: Yeah, they didn't heard it on the field, clearly not.
- 21:19Speaker 5: You know, And look, I get it. The Titans are
- 21:21Speaker 5: going to be fired up to beat a division rival
- 21:23Speaker 5: where they were they.
- 21:24Speaker 6: Not fired up to beat the Texans last week. You
- 21:27Speaker 6: know what I mean.
- 21:27Speaker 5: I get it's the final game of the season and
- 21:29Speaker 5: all that, but that's been played. They get held to
- 21:32Speaker 5: nineteen total points in the last three weeks by the Texans,
- 21:37Speaker 5: that's in two games combined. And went out there and again,
- 21:40Speaker 5: you know, they it's not the twenty eight, it's more
- 21:43Speaker 5: the style. And I think JP, you hit it with
- 21:46Speaker 5: the sixty nine yard run to open it. Look, you've
- 21:50Speaker 5: stolen three points at the end of the half. After
- 21:53Speaker 5: you get the turnover, you get the bad snap on
- 21:55Speaker 5: the pott and okay, it's a one score game.
- 21:58Speaker 6: This is not gone.
- 21:59Speaker 5: It all the way we wanted, Fred and they come
- 22:01Speaker 5: right out and that I felt like just stole the
- 22:05Speaker 5: heart from the Jags. You were playing so uphill from
- 22:08Speaker 5: that point, and I know they didn't give up or
- 22:10Speaker 5: anything like that, but I mean, you built yourself, dug
- 22:13Speaker 5: yourself such a hole at that point. I just really
- 22:16Speaker 5: was disappointed the way the defense started. Both of the
- 22:19Speaker 5: haves today.
- 22:21Speaker 4: Yeah, you know that big sixty nine yard are there
- 22:25Speaker 4: at the start of the second half. Earlier on in
- 22:27Speaker 4: the game. I mentioned the run by Spears early on
- 22:31Speaker 4: in thirty six. You had an opportunity to get off
- 22:33Speaker 4: the field and you didn't do it. Miss tackles early
- 22:38Speaker 4: turned into miss tackles late. And the Titans just with
- 22:42Speaker 4: that momentum, man, they showed a lot more effort, a
- 22:45Speaker 4: lot more fight, and they fought their way to a victory,
- 22:49Speaker 4: even having losing three of their lab four. I guess
- 22:54Speaker 4: they saved the best for last.
- 22:57Speaker 2: Putting ahead, We're still out of BUCKI Brooks in. We'll
- 23:00Speaker 2: hang out here. It's just moments away, we're told. Bucky
- 23:03Speaker 2: Brooks standing by to visit with head coach Doug Peterson
- 23:05Speaker 2: after a Jaguars loss in Nashville to the Tennessee Titans
- 23:09Speaker 2: twenty eighth twenty the final score, the Jaguars missed the
- 23:14Speaker 2: playoffs with the record of nine and eight here in
- 23:16Speaker 2: the twenty twenty three season. They end up splitting the
- 23:20Speaker 2: season series with Tennessee, and some teams that the Jaguars
- 23:24Speaker 2: knocked out are assured playoff spots after the result today,
- 23:29Speaker 2: let's head back to Nashville. Bucky Brooks standing by with
- 23:32Speaker 2: head coach Doug Peterson.
- 23:33Speaker 7: Bucky disappointing, it's frustrating. It's it's like our season in
- 23:43Speaker 7: a nutshell. Penalties, misstackles, turnovers, failed to execute, you know,
- 23:51Speaker 7: in critical situations. And it's listen, if that's all part
- 23:54Speaker 7: of us growing up as a football team, that's part
- 23:58Speaker 7: of us maturing as a team and understanding these situations.
- 24:04Speaker 7: You know, and and you know, like I told the team,
- 24:07Speaker 7: everything matters, man, everything is everything is magnified. You know,
- 24:15Speaker 7: what we do during the week, it's going to translate,
- 24:18Speaker 7: you know, into the game on Sunday, and you know,
- 24:22Speaker 7: it's just that's the that's the disappointing part.
- 24:26Speaker 8: You know, I've been around you a long time. I
- 24:27Speaker 8: know you always talk about finishing the way you finish
- 24:29Speaker 8: seasons and and those things. For the core players that return,
- 24:32Speaker 8: what are some of the lessons that you hope they
- 24:34Speaker 8: can learn from this to make them a better team
- 24:36Speaker 8: going forward.
- 24:37Speaker 7: Yeah, the core guys that do return, I mean, you know,
- 24:40Speaker 7: we got to remember moments like this and and not
- 24:46Speaker 7: you know, not be in them again. You got to
- 24:50Speaker 7: learn from it. You gotta you gotta understand that, Yes,
- 24:54Speaker 7: it is a week to week business, but it can't
- 24:58Speaker 7: always come down to week eight team. You know, we
- 25:01Speaker 7: had opportunities to to to wrap this thing.
- 25:03Speaker 6: Up a couple weeks ago and we didn't.
- 25:05Speaker 7: And the disappointing thing is how we how we finished
- 25:09Speaker 7: our season then didn't finish our season really and that's
- 25:12Speaker 7: something that the guys that return need to really think
- 25:17Speaker 7: about it. It's not about we can't talk about it. You know,
- 25:21Speaker 7: you just got to go do it. You got to
- 25:23Speaker 7: be about it. And you know that's the message, and
- 25:26Speaker 7: that's the that's what these guys need to need to
- 25:28Speaker 7: understand moving forward.
- 25:29Speaker 8: So for people that don't know, like, what's the process
- 25:31Speaker 8: immediately after a season concludes, Like how do you evaluate
- 25:34Speaker 8: or what would you guys do over the next couple
- 25:36Speaker 8: of weeks just looking back at the season.
- 25:38Speaker 7: Yeah, you know, tomorrow we'll we'll bring the team in
- 25:41Speaker 7: and just wrap everything up. Well, you know, obviously the
- 25:43Speaker 7: physicals are a big part of it, the medical exams,
- 25:45Speaker 7: things like that, and meet with the coaches and and
- 25:49Speaker 7: you know, have have you know, conversations, you know, especially
- 25:53Speaker 7: the players that might be potential free agents or.
- 25:57Speaker 6: You know what whatnot.
- 25:59Speaker 7: You just have those conversations and you're honest with them
- 26:01Speaker 7: and expectations for the for the you know, the future
- 26:04Speaker 7: coming up. And then and then once once the players
- 26:08Speaker 7: are are finished on Monday, it's it's, you know, we
- 26:11Speaker 7: continue to evaluate and and we look at we look
- 26:14Speaker 7: at everything and we start peeling back the onion and
- 26:16Speaker 7: and figure out the whys. And that's when we start
- 26:20Speaker 7: making the corrections.
- 26:21Speaker 8: Well, one thing I know about you get it all
- 26:23Speaker 8: fixed and we'll be back bigger and better and stronger
- 26:25Speaker 8: next year. Thanks so much, be sure, Well.
- 26:27Speaker 6: Thank you.
- 26:28Speaker 2: That's Bucky Brooks with head coach Doug Peterson in Nashville.
- 26:31Speaker 2: Time for another break. We're back in a moment with
- 26:33Speaker 2: the defensive play of the game. Plenty more ahead after
- 26:36Speaker 2: a Jaguars loss in Nashville twenty eight twenty the final
- 26:39Speaker 2: Titans over the Jaguars, and this is Jaguars post game
- 26:42Speaker 2: on Jaguars Radio. Jaguars Postgame presented by Florida Home a
- 26:49Speaker 2: se continues JP Shadwick, Mike Dempsey at the Hunday Studios
- 26:53Speaker 2: in Jacksonville. Fred Taylor on the line with us and
- 26:55Speaker 2: time now for the Kingfish Pest Control. Defensive play of
- 26:58Speaker 2: the game, and it well, it's Andre Cisco's interception off
- 27:02Speaker 2: Ryan Tannehill late in the game and a twenty eight
- 27:06Speaker 2: yard return to go with it to set up the
- 27:08Speaker 2: Jaguars in really good shape at the Tennessee twenty eight
- 27:12Speaker 2: yard line. Unfortunately, the offense could not punch it in.
- 27:16Speaker 2: They were stopped short on the leap try by Lawrence
- 27:20Speaker 2: from a fourth and goal with the one he was
- 27:22Speaker 2: stopped short. The third and goal play was roll out
- 27:26Speaker 2: to the right, thrown out of the back of the
- 27:27Speaker 2: end zone. But Cisco's interception was huge in that moment
- 27:31Speaker 2: to give the Jaguars the football really in the red
- 27:34Speaker 2: zone fringe, so that is they do Kingfish Pest control,
- 27:37Speaker 2: defensive play of the game. Let the pros tackle the
- 27:39Speaker 2: pest in your home by going to Kingfishpest dot com.
- 27:42Speaker 2: That's Kingfish Pest dot com. Fred, what do you hear
- 27:47Speaker 2: from Doug Peterson there about Yeah, well he just spoke
- 27:52Speaker 2: with Bucky Brooks.
- 27:53Speaker 3: Obviously in Nashville.
- 27:54Speaker 2: There's a lot to be decided the next you know,
- 27:57Speaker 2: tomorrow's the big day to get everybody out of here
- 27:59Speaker 2: and close out the books on all these players really
- 28:03Speaker 2: for the regular season, and then you've got to dig
- 28:05Speaker 2: into some things in the coming weeks and figure out
- 28:08Speaker 2: why this is melted down.
- 28:10Speaker 4: Yeah, he said it. You know, the one thing that
- 28:12Speaker 4: stood out the most was everything matters as during the week,
- 28:17Speaker 4: during the course of the games in the in the
- 28:21Speaker 4: in the big picture, it's going to be during the
- 28:24Speaker 4: course of the entire season. They're going to go back.
- 28:27Speaker 4: They're going to evaluate each player, but I think prior
- 28:31Speaker 4: to that, they're going to evaluate their books. They're gonna
- 28:35Speaker 4: look at the salary cap and look at player contracts
- 28:38Speaker 4: and see how much flexibility they have with each player
- 28:41Speaker 4: and with their pocket their own pocketbooks, and then they're
- 28:44Speaker 4: gonna make those decisions necessary to try and build a
- 28:49Speaker 4: winning roster so next year they can do better than
- 28:53Speaker 4: ninety eight and miss the playoffs. He said, remember moments.
- 28:59Speaker 4: I've yes, every Jaguars fan in the world remembers the
- 29:04Speaker 4: Titans a year ago on the same day, January seventh.
- 29:09Speaker 4: I think the guys played the Titans and similar situation,
- 29:12Speaker 4: you're winning, you in They got the job done late
- 29:15Speaker 4: in the game with Riley Patterson field goal and Josh
- 29:18Speaker 4: Allen fumble return, so they made plays to get it done.
- 29:22Speaker 4: This year was different. And the last thing that Doug
- 29:25Speaker 4: said was finish. They didn't finish, you know, Unlike last
- 29:29Speaker 4: year what I just mentioned they finished. This year, they
- 29:32Speaker 4: didn't finish and they got finished. So those three things, man,
- 29:38Speaker 4: everything matters, Remember moments and finished Those stood out to me,
- 29:43Speaker 4: and that's how you build a successful team, man, And
- 29:46Speaker 4: hopefully they can put something together to make that happen
- 29:48Speaker 4: for Jaguar fans.
- 29:50Speaker 6: The theme of.
- 29:51Speaker 5: What you do during the week reflects on what you
- 29:54Speaker 5: do on game day is pretty clearly, Doug Peterson saying,
- 29:59Speaker 5: wecting well enough, right, that we're bad habits that are
- 30:02Speaker 5: showing up in practice. Otherwise, why do you keep going
- 30:05Speaker 5: back to this? This has been a theme of his
- 30:07Speaker 5: and a lot of these post games. In this recent
- 30:10Speaker 5: stretch of losing five out of six, how do you
- 30:13Speaker 5: fix that? I mean, I've had people say, you know,
- 30:16Speaker 5: a former player, say, hey, you just got to start
- 30:18Speaker 5: over every play. You only get practice so long in
- 30:20Speaker 5: the NFL, you know what I mean. Like, if your
- 30:22Speaker 5: guys keep making the same mistakes over and over again,
- 30:26Speaker 5: how do you change that practice culture?
- 30:29Speaker 6: If you're a coaching staff.
- 30:31Speaker 4: I think you call up the NFLPA and say, look,
- 30:35Speaker 4: we need more hours because the game has changed so
- 30:40Speaker 4: much since I said in those classrooms or since I've
- 30:44Speaker 4: been on a practice field, and they only have a
- 30:46Speaker 4: small window. You know, and this is throughout the entire
- 30:50Speaker 4: duration of the of the season. You have to have
- 30:54Speaker 4: a you know, a veteran team, team that believes in urgency,
- 30:59Speaker 4: a team that believes in themselves, believes in winning. They
- 31:02Speaker 4: have to believe in each other, you know, they have
- 31:04Speaker 4: to hold each other accountable. You know, it goes outside
- 31:07Speaker 4: of the coaches. The one thing I learned Mike when
- 31:10Speaker 4: I went to New England, and I'm partly responsible for
- 31:14Speaker 4: not having this in Jacksonville. And a lot of times
- 31:17Speaker 4: we looked around and we only know what we know.
- 31:20Speaker 4: Right for the most part, we didn't do certain things
- 31:24Speaker 4: in Jacksonville. We kind of lost our culture after coach
- 31:28Speaker 4: Coughlin was fired insert del rio, a little bit more, lax,
- 31:34Speaker 4: a little bit more. You know, guys kind of fend
- 31:36Speaker 4: for themselves. I led my position room, but I didn't
- 31:40Speaker 4: leave the entire team by word of mouth. I played through,
- 31:46Speaker 4: you know, I led by example. I get out there
- 31:48Speaker 4: and play. Hope that inspire other players to try to
- 31:51Speaker 4: follow me. I think what this team needs is like
- 31:55Speaker 4: what the Patriots had when I went up there. And
- 31:58Speaker 4: I always share this with teams and coaches. Each position
- 32:04Speaker 4: group has to have a leader that's gonna make sure
- 32:07Speaker 4: each of their guy is accountable. For example, on Tuesdays
- 32:13Speaker 4: or Wednesdays, after practice, the team, the veteran leader in
- 32:16Speaker 4: that position group, you have to call for a meeting
- 32:20Speaker 4: at your place. Let's go and watch film together. Let's
- 32:23Speaker 4: go in brotherhood. Let's just run a tape. If something
- 32:25Speaker 4: stands out, you have questions, let's ask. Don't be shy,
- 32:29Speaker 4: Let's get it done now. That'll create a certain culture
- 32:32Speaker 4: and community and environment and a level of trust where
- 32:36Speaker 4: these guys know I got your back, you got my
- 32:38Speaker 4: back when it comes to game and when it comes
- 32:41Speaker 4: to us not being around each other, I can depend
- 32:43Speaker 4: on you. I don't have to worry that you're out
- 32:46Speaker 4: past certain hours, or that you're not taking care of
- 32:48Speaker 4: your body, or that you're gonna miss this play, which
- 32:51Speaker 4: might provoke me to try to do your job. If
- 32:54Speaker 4: I trust you, I'm not worried about the job you're
- 32:56Speaker 4: gonna do, Mike or JP. I trust you, I don't
- 33:00Speaker 4: have to do too much to make a play. And
- 33:02Speaker 4: when guys get out of position, they're trying to do
- 33:04Speaker 4: too much and all these other things happen, or you
- 33:06Speaker 4: don't know your assignment. That leads to bad practices, which
- 33:10Speaker 4: translates to bad games, which translates to losses. So I
- 33:14Speaker 4: believe if that's dougs them, then he has to get
- 33:18Speaker 4: his leaders together and tell them, look, I got to
- 33:20Speaker 4: depend on you guys a lot more to gather your group.
- 33:24Speaker 4: I know I'm getting along winded, but I'm just speaking
- 33:26Speaker 4: off experience, and sometimes that's what it takes for him
- 33:29Speaker 4: to go inside the locker room and say look, I
- 33:31Speaker 4: need you to police your group, your five or six guys,
- 33:35Speaker 4: and each group has to do that and hopefully we
- 33:38Speaker 4: can gather some accountability so that way when it's game
- 33:42Speaker 4: day situationally everybody's on the same page, and from a
- 33:46Speaker 4: trust and an urgency standpoint, everybody's on the same page.
- 33:49Speaker 4: But that falls into remember moments. That's what the guys
- 33:53Speaker 4: are going to have to do. Like everybody's going to
- 33:56Speaker 4: look at somebody else and say, all right, you did
- 33:58Speaker 4: this that game, you did this, you did at that.
- 34:01Speaker 4: I can't have that next year because I don't want
- 34:04Speaker 4: to be in the same position, you know, leaving the
- 34:06Speaker 4: facility with the same filling. And that's that's my two
- 34:09Speaker 4: cent and that I'm done. Sorry for the long win.
- 34:13Speaker 2: Hey, that was gonna let you go as long as
- 34:14Speaker 2: you wanted to go. Great analysis, Fred Taylor with us
- 34:17Speaker 2: on the line. We're back in a moment with the
- 34:19Speaker 2: final stats in this one and plenty ahead. After Jaguars
- 34:22Speaker 2: loss of the Titans twenty eight to twenty Jaguars post
- 34:25Speaker 2: game on the Jaguars Radio Network, Jaguars Post Game presented
- 34:31Speaker 2: by Florida Home a c JP Shadwick, Mike Dempsey from
- 34:34Speaker 2: the Hunday Studios, Fred Taylor on the line with US
- 34:36Speaker 2: time for a look at the EverBank Final stats and
- 34:38Speaker 2: the Jaguars loss twenty eight to twenty Titans over the Jaguars.
- 34:43Speaker 2: Total yardage today in favor of Jacksonville three sixty two
- 34:48Speaker 2: to three. Twenty seven rushing yardage though one seventy five
- 34:51Speaker 2: on the ground for Tennessee today, eighty two for the Jaguars.
- 34:55Speaker 2: To eddy through the year for the Jags, one fifty
- 34:57Speaker 2: three through the year for Tennessee. Third downs eight of
- 35:00Speaker 2: fourteen for the Jaguars, six of eleven for Tennessee. Turnovers
- 35:03Speaker 2: two to one, Jaguars gave it away twice. Time of
- 35:07Speaker 2: possession thirty two minutes and change for the Jags. And yeah,
- 35:11Speaker 2: individually today, Mike, what stands out to you? Obviously, Derrick
- 35:14Speaker 2: Henry is number one?
- 35:15Speaker 5: Yeah, Unfortunately, you know, Passing wise, Trevor Lawrence two to eighty,
- 35:20Speaker 5: couple of touchdowns, couple of interceptions, passer rating of eighty
- 35:23Speaker 5: one and a half. Ryan Tannehill threw for one sixty
- 35:26Speaker 5: eight two tds.
- 35:26Speaker 6: And a pick.
- 35:27Speaker 5: Passer rating of ninety three. And yeah, Derrick Henry ran
- 35:31Speaker 5: it nineteen times for one hundred and fifty three yards,
- 35:33Speaker 5: and Taja Spears chipped in another three for twenty five.
- 35:36Speaker 5: I mean, that's absurd. Twenty two carries for one hundred
- 35:40Speaker 5: and seventy eight between them and Travis CTN managing three
- 35:44Speaker 5: point six yards to carry, which is kind of in
- 35:46Speaker 5: line with what he's been this year sixteen for fifty seven.
- 35:49Speaker 5: Tank bigs V did have three for sixteen as well.
- 35:53Speaker 5: Receiving wise, Calvin Ridley led the way six for one
- 35:56Speaker 5: oh six with a touchdown and just missed hauling in
- 35:59Speaker 5: that deep on that last offensive drive. For the Jags
- 36:02Speaker 5: as well, Evan Ingram continued to rack up the receptions
- 36:06Speaker 5: ten for seventy nine with a touchdown. DeAndre Hopkins led
- 36:10Speaker 5: the way with seven for forty six. On the other side,
- 36:13Speaker 5: he and Tajay Spears both caught tds for Tennessee and
- 36:17Speaker 5: for the Jags today, Josh Allen and Trayvon Walker each
- 36:21Speaker 5: finished with a sack to boost They're already impressive totals,
- 36:26Speaker 5: So two guys in double digits in the sack department,
- 36:29Speaker 5: but that's a small solace at this point.
- 36:31Speaker 6: No doubt.
- 36:31Speaker 2: And yeah, rough one certainly for the Jaguars today, Fred,
- 36:36Speaker 2: But you know there's some miles stones they don't matter
- 36:38Speaker 2: at this point. But I mean, you got thousand yards
- 36:42Speaker 2: for each ten for the season in today's game. Another
- 36:46Speaker 2: big day for Ridley. It's the end of his contract.
- 36:48Speaker 2: We'll see what happens with that moving ahead. Feels like,
- 36:52Speaker 2: you know, he was involved in some big moments in
- 36:55Speaker 2: some wins early in the season, but had some inconsistencies
- 36:58Speaker 2: as well. And then on the other side, the defensive side,
- 37:03Speaker 2: you know, yeah, Foyer Luka needed a huge game to
- 37:07Speaker 2: get to the league leading tackles. He fell short of
- 37:10Speaker 2: that today. So there were guys right there in the
- 37:13Speaker 2: mix of some of these marks. I think Ingram finished
- 37:16Speaker 2: like two catches short of the old time franchise record.
- 37:20Speaker 2: He needed twelve catches. He ended up with ten today, Fred.
- 37:23Speaker 2: That would have matched Jimmy Smith and actually Zach Ertz
- 37:26Speaker 2: for the tight end record in the NFL all time for.
- 37:28Speaker 6: A single season catches.
- 37:29Speaker 2: So there are some positive things that you can build
- 37:33Speaker 2: around moving forward.
- 37:35Speaker 6: And I guess that's the good sign.
- 37:38Speaker 4: That's like the the little shiny dangling ornament or whatever.
- 37:44Speaker 4: It kind of stands out. But I think at this point,
- 37:47Speaker 4: the players, you know, fans around Jacksonville, fans around the world, like,
- 37:52Speaker 4: I don't know if they even care at this particular
- 37:55Speaker 4: moment about the individual achievement. They they go back to
- 38:01Speaker 4: last year and they say, Okay, this was a team
- 38:04Speaker 4: that we turned it on late. We you know, I
- 38:07Speaker 4: went to the playoffs, we lost to the Chiefs. Now
- 38:10Speaker 4: this year, we should have been a more dominant team.
- 38:12Speaker 4: Look at expectations and then we kind of faltered out.
- 38:16Speaker 4: So they kind of get heartbroken at this point. Each
- 38:20Speaker 4: and every every year, January hasn't been kind to Jaguars fans,
- 38:25Speaker 4: and I believe they're more concerned with that than the
- 38:28Speaker 4: individual goals. But I know what, I know what you
- 38:32Speaker 4: were getting that, So I don't want to try them
- 38:35Speaker 4: the light on those guys because they had some amazing achievements. Achievements.
- 38:39Speaker 4: H And that's a lot of times that you play
- 38:42Speaker 4: the wins championships, but you also play a lot of
- 38:45Speaker 4: the times to you know, outdo yourself. Uh you sometimes
- 38:50Speaker 4: you compete with yourself. Uh And and those numbers look good.
- 38:54Speaker 4: I feel bad for every Evan Ingram, you know, I
- 38:57Speaker 4: feel bad for Foyer and years past when he's led
- 39:01Speaker 4: the league and was snuffed over Pro Bowl. But Evan
- 39:04Speaker 4: Ingram not to be called to the Pro Bowl. That
- 39:07Speaker 4: just shows you how bad the Pro Bowl has been
- 39:09Speaker 4: for years, and it seems that it's gotten worse. But yeah, man, I.
- 39:17Speaker 6: It's what it is.
- 39:18Speaker 2: Fred, I mean, I think that's a collective side from
- 39:23Speaker 2: Jaguar fans everywhere. And let's come back in a moment.
- 39:26Speaker 2: We'll get to the Jaguars Radio Network Player of the
- 39:28Speaker 2: Game voting. After Jaguars lost twenty eight to twenty Titans
- 39:32Speaker 2: over the Jaguars and the Jags missed the postseason. And
- 39:34Speaker 2: this is Jaguars Post Game on Jaguars Radio. Jaguars Post
- 39:41Speaker 2: Game presented by Florida Home a C called Florida Home
- 39:43Speaker 2: ay C today official air conditioning partner of the Jacksonville Jaguars.
- 39:47Speaker 2: J P Shadwick, Mike Dempse, Fred Taylor with at Honday
- 39:50Speaker 2: Studios in Jacksonville. The Jaguars Radio Network Player of the
- 39:53Speaker 2: Game voting. I get a vote, Mike gets a vote,
- 39:55Speaker 2: Fred gets a vote. In a half to break any ties, yes,
- 39:58Speaker 2: we understand the result in what it means today. However,
- 40:03Speaker 2: let's pick Let's pick somebody in this Mike, what you got,
- 40:07Speaker 2: all right.
- 40:08Speaker 5: I'll go with somebody. I'll go with Calvin Ridley here.
- 40:11Speaker 5: You know, Evan Ingram's got a case. But also you
- 40:14Speaker 5: know he had a ball bounce off his chest that
- 40:17Speaker 5: resulted in the first turnover of the game for the Jags.
- 40:20Speaker 5: And uh, you know, Calvin Ridley caught six of the
- 40:23Speaker 5: ten targets thrown his way for one hundred and six yards.
- 40:26Speaker 5: Had the fifty nine yard touchdown just missed another long one.
- 40:31Speaker 5: Who knows what would have happened if that ball had
- 40:33Speaker 5: been six inches shorter, if Ridley's arms had been six
- 40:37Speaker 5: inches longer, whatever the case. But I'll go Calvin Ridley today.
- 40:40Speaker 6: What do you got, Fred? Go ahead?
- 40:42Speaker 4: I got an echo, Mike, everything Mike said. Calvin really
- 40:47Speaker 4: ten target, six six receptions. He hauled in that one
- 40:51Speaker 4: that was barely off his fingertips. If it were, like
- 40:55Speaker 4: Mike said, six inches shorter, it seems that we would
- 40:59Speaker 4: have at least made the game twenty eight to twenty seven.
- 41:03Speaker 4: I don't well, twenty eight twenty six. I don't know
- 41:05Speaker 4: if we had executed two point conversion, but I thought
- 41:09Speaker 4: really did pretty decent for what he was given today.
- 41:13Speaker 3: Ridley is my vote as well.
- 41:15Speaker 2: You Nano's ten target, six catches one oh six a
- 41:18Speaker 2: touchdown in the final game of the twenty twenty three season,
- 41:21Speaker 2: final game of his rookie contract.
- 41:23Speaker 6: By the way, we'll see what happens with him. Isn't
- 41:25Speaker 6: that crazy in the offseason rookie deal in that wild Yeah? Well, yeah,
- 41:28Speaker 6: we understand why, but you know it.
- 41:31Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's yeah, it's a big storyline in this offseason.
- 41:33Speaker 2: If the Jaguars resigned him to a long term deal,
- 41:36Speaker 2: whatever that means, then they have to give up a
- 41:38Speaker 2: second round pick for him. That's a discussion we can
- 41:41Speaker 2: have in the weeks ahead, and that will Yeah.
- 41:43Speaker 4: I want to know what's considered a long term deal.
- 41:46Speaker 5: I think anything more than a single year. Okay, well,
- 41:49Speaker 5: I would think, you know, or is it an extension
- 41:53Speaker 5: of any kind?
- 41:54Speaker 6: Is it just signing him, you know.
- 41:56Speaker 4: Because dispect Yeah, I don't, I don't. Yeah, yeah, I
- 41:59Speaker 4: don't know what language might Yeah, that is two years
- 42:03Speaker 4: considered long term?
- 42:05Speaker 6: I think, Yeah, I don't even know if long term
- 42:08Speaker 6: part of it.
- 42:09Speaker 5: I just think if they've signed it to an extension, Okay,
- 42:12Speaker 5: that's what I thought it was.
- 42:13Speaker 6: But I'll go back we'll take a look.
- 42:15Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 42:16Speaker 2: Either way, you better look at the fine print of
- 42:19Speaker 2: that one.
- 42:19Speaker 6: Moving ahead.
- 42:20Speaker 2: If you're looking for the MVP of the truck game,
- 42:22Speaker 2: then look no further than Ford F one fifty. A
- 42:24Speaker 2: little with impressive capabilities and designed to dominate, workplay and
- 42:28Speaker 2: everything in between. This truck makes tough look easy. Your
- 42:33Speaker 2: local four dealer, proud partner of the Jacksonville Jaguars, bapt
- 42:36Speaker 2: to self injury report when we return this Jaguars post
- 42:39Speaker 2: game on Jaguars Radio. Jaguars Post Game presented by Florida
- 42:47Speaker 2: Home a C continues J P. Shadwick with Mike Dempse
- 42:49Speaker 2: Fred Taylor on the line with us. The injury report
- 42:52Speaker 2: presented by Baptist Heal from the Jacksonville Orthopedic Institute, the
- 42:55Speaker 2: official sports medicine provider of the Jacksonville Jaguars. Christian K
- 43:00Speaker 2: Kirk was activated to the roster late this week, but
- 43:04Speaker 2: unable to go in the game today and missed the
- 43:07Speaker 2: last five weeks of the season with a core rusciaal
- 43:10Speaker 2: core injury and the groin injury. And he had surgery
- 43:14Speaker 2: and we'll see him back, of course next season. Trevor
- 43:17Speaker 2: Lawrence was up and played through the game today with
- 43:20Speaker 2: the ac joint spray and his throwing shoulder, and yeah,
- 43:25Speaker 2: pretty much everybody else that was a starter on opening
- 43:29Speaker 2: Day was back for this game today, which was pretty remarkable.
- 43:32Speaker 2: But just couldn't find that rhythm on offense today, and
- 43:35Speaker 2: the defense just struggled against the run. That was something
- 43:39Speaker 2: a lot of the season. They prided themselves on stopping
- 43:42Speaker 2: the run. They were very good at it first half
- 43:44Speaker 2: of the season, and then they weren't.
- 43:46Speaker 5: Right, I'm curious about the decision to elevate Christian Kirk yesterday.
- 43:54Speaker 5: Was there a point where they thought he was going
- 43:55Speaker 5: to play, you know, because he didn't have to do it,
- 43:58Speaker 5: and I guess it went with the corresponding move with
- 44:00Speaker 5: Jamal Agnew going on ir But you didn't have to
- 44:03Speaker 5: make that. You could have had a different player available
- 44:05Speaker 5: to you.
- 44:06Speaker 2: I wonder now, I don't know the rule of the
- 44:07Speaker 2: playoff rule. If they got in, could you activate him
- 44:10Speaker 2: before the playoff game or does he have to be
- 44:12Speaker 2: on the roster at the end.
- 44:13Speaker 6: I think you'd be able to activate him during the postseason.
- 44:16Speaker 3: I thought, yeah, you know, I think maybe they thought
- 44:19Speaker 3: there was a shot, but.
- 44:21Speaker 5: Maybe right I'm just curious I mean it, you know,
- 44:23Speaker 5: who knows if it would have impact. Who knows if
- 44:25Speaker 5: he would have been effective. And you know, like to
- 44:28Speaker 5: think somewhere along the line could have made a couple
- 44:31Speaker 5: of plays to help wouldn't help the run defense though.
- 44:33Speaker 6: So wouldn't help that at all. Fred.
- 44:35Speaker 3: So that's where they are. They battled injuries all year.
- 44:38Speaker 6: Fred.
- 44:40Speaker 4: Yeah, hey, look this game here, I am even with
- 44:44Speaker 4: my you know, opportunity here to have my case herd
- 44:48Speaker 4: in the finalist room. I can always go back and say,
- 44:52Speaker 4: this game isn't kind to anyone. You know, you get
- 44:57Speaker 4: what you get. Ex. Bill Belichick, one of the most
- 45:01Speaker 4: legendary coaches that this game has ever seen. You think
- 45:05Speaker 4: he would probably win his last game in Foxborough if
- 45:10Speaker 4: it is his last game there. The game isn't kind, man,
- 45:14Speaker 4: It's just Mike said it. It is what it is.
- 45:19Speaker 4: And you just got a smirk, chuckle and try and
- 45:22Speaker 4: take a deep woosah. Maybe do some yoga. I don't
- 45:26Speaker 4: know just how it goes.
- 45:29Speaker 2: Sounds pretty relaxing. Actually it needs need a lot of
- 45:31Speaker 2: that after today.
- 45:32Speaker 4: A final score to yoga ain't always relaxing, JP. Yoga
- 45:36Speaker 4: is not always relaxing. It's overrated in that sense. It's tough. Sometimes.
- 45:42Speaker 2: We'll get into that when we come back our final
- 45:44Speaker 2: thoughts for the season. Unfortunately, when we return final score
- 45:50Speaker 2: twenty eight to twenty Titans over the Jaguars. This is
- 45:53Speaker 2: Jaguars post Game on the Jaguars Radio Network. Let's pust
- 45:58Speaker 2: send seconds versation idification on the Jaguars Radio Network, JP, Shadick,
- 46:13Speaker 2: Mike Dempsey, Fred Taylor, Jaguars Postgame presented by Florida Home

- 47:00Speaker 4: no opportunity. But hey, back towards you said, Mike, it
- 47:03Speaker 4: is what it is, but it doesn't diminish the fact
- 47:06Speaker 4: that I enjoy being around you guys, learning from you guys,

- 47:14Speaker 4: So I appreciate you too for life, for that. Hopefully, man,
- 47:20Speaker 4: we can figure this thing out and get a championships
- 47:23Speaker 4: down in Dubaal somewhere, some way, somehow, I would like that.
- 47:30Speaker 6: You know, we'll take you getting in the fame during
- 47:32Speaker 6: the Super Bowl week. That's our super Bowl.
- 47:35Speaker 4: I mean, that's not that's not bad, man, But you know,
- 47:39Speaker 4: it is what it is. It does what it does.
- 47:42Speaker 4: We'll see fingers across everything's crossed. I talked to Sam.
- 47:47Speaker 4: I've been talking to Sam Colevoras a ton, just sharing notes,
- 47:53Speaker 4: a whole lot of stuff. And Sam he shared his
- 47:56Speaker 4: presentation with me on the phone yesterday and uh he
- 48:00Speaker 4: also sent it over via email. It sounds really good.
- 48:03Speaker 4: Got a lot of quotes from a lot of legendary players,
- 48:06Speaker 4: of a ton of guys that are in the Hall
- 48:08Speaker 4: of Fame, ton of coaches that are in the Hall
- 48:10Speaker 4: of Fame. So you know it's there. Everything's there. The
- 48:15Speaker 4: information is there, the stats are there, the numbers, everything's there.
- 48:19Speaker 4: We'll just have to see what the selectors think and
- 48:23Speaker 4: go from there. So and I'll be good with that.
- 48:27Speaker 4: And hopefully whatever happens the big man upstairs, I'm on
- 48:32Speaker 4: his clock. I'll never forget that part.
