- 0:49Speaker 1: Let's go let's go down that road. J It's quite okay.

- 0:59Speaker 1: you don't want to go no, we we just went there.
- 1:01Speaker 1: But that's okay. Let's move away from there. Here's just
- 1:04Speaker 1: coming up though. I do it for food too. Food
- 1:07Speaker 1: got to be good on the program today, of course,
- 1:10Speaker 1: the Ramsey response after everything that has happened this week,
- 1:14Speaker 1: Jaila Ramsey away from the football team, mintsh you mania continues.
- 1:19Speaker 1: We'll break it all down. Jaguars Broncos previewill peak around
- 1:23Speaker 1: the National Football League as well, and of course, in
- 1:26Speaker 1: an hour from now five o'clock, the Doug Marone Show
- 1:28Speaker 1: will hear from the head coach live in studio. Let's
- 1:31Speaker 1: start with the Deala Ramsey situation this week and what
- 1:34Speaker 1: a week it has been called out sick on Monday,
- 1:38Speaker 1: players are off Tuesday. Anyway, a sore back was on
- 1:41Speaker 1: the report Wednesday, did not practice and then off to
- 1:44Speaker 1: Nashville Wednesday night, and an announcement from head coach Doug
- 1:47Speaker 1: Moron for the birth of his second child and no
- 1:50Speaker 1: real timetable one when he will be back with this
- 1:53Speaker 1: football team. What a week it's been around Dealer Ramsey
- 1:56Speaker 1: guys one likeness. No never, especially in my era. I've
- 2:05Speaker 1: never seen anything. I'm just saying, listen, I was talking
- 2:08Speaker 1: about this earlier to day. I mean in I just
- 2:11Speaker 1: signed with the Jaguars. My my wife was pregnant with
- 2:15Speaker 1: my second daughter, Kenya, just born September nine, right in
- 2:17Speaker 1: the middle of the season. Okay, I went there and
- 2:19Speaker 1: make sure she was okay. So the birth of my daughter,
- 2:21Speaker 1: make sure my wife was good. And then next day
- 2:24Speaker 1: I'm at practice. I'm at practice because if I had
- 2:26Speaker 1: taken any more days off than one day, I mean, listened.
- 2:30Speaker 1: Lockerman was in that locker room too, he would have said, certainly,
- 2:33Speaker 1: what's the deal, broke, We're trying to win the football game.
- 2:35Speaker 1: How are you taking two three days off a paternity
- 2:37Speaker 1: Did you deliver the baby? I mean, I know, I
- 2:41Speaker 1: know the guys in that locker room, trust me, so
- 2:43Speaker 1: you listen, listen. I understand that family and kids trump football. Okay,
- 2:49Speaker 1: that's absolutely family, kids trump football. So I understand it.
- 2:53Speaker 1: But if this was, if this was relayed to us
- 2:56Speaker 1: on Monday, you know, before the sickness and before the
- 3:00Speaker 1: back and all the stuff, that we will be having
- 3:02Speaker 1: this conversation. If you if it came out of money,
- 3:04Speaker 1: hey listen, I'm not gonna be I probably want to
- 3:06Speaker 1: make the game because I'm going to see my my
- 3:09Speaker 1: girlfriends and my second child going to Nashville. Then maybe
- 3:13Speaker 1: it's understandable. I'm not sure about the whole week and
- 3:15Speaker 1: missing the game, but you know, missing a few practices.
- 3:17Speaker 1: I would have understood that if this said came out first,
- 3:20Speaker 1: but it didn't, so it looks kind of odd. It's
- 3:22Speaker 1: just it's just I think it's the compilation of everything
- 3:25Speaker 1: together that I think kind of makes the whole situation
- 3:28Speaker 1: odd because I mean, you you go back to you
- 3:30Speaker 1: have the incident in Houston, and then you have the
- 3:34Speaker 1: the request for a trade and uh, and then you
- 3:37Speaker 1: have a bizarre press conference and then you have a
- 3:39Speaker 1: postgame interview to where there's not really you don't learn
- 3:44Speaker 1: anything from it, you don't understand anything from it. And
- 3:47Speaker 1: then the next thing you know, he's got the flu.
- 3:50Speaker 1: And then once he gets back from the flu, and
- 3:52Speaker 1: there are reports that he was in l A around
- 3:55Speaker 1: that same time, and then also you come back and
- 3:57Speaker 1: he doesn't practice, and then he doesn't pry just and
- 4:00Speaker 1: an all of a sudden statements released by the team
- 4:02Speaker 1: and that he's off to be there for the birth
- 4:05Speaker 1: of his second child, which look, I'm all four of
- 4:07Speaker 1: that kind of thing, but but all together, it just
- 4:11Speaker 1: it just makes it look odd. And I think the
- 4:14Speaker 1: one thing I think that's very apparent because when you
- 4:17Speaker 1: when you talk to all the different fans that are
- 4:21Speaker 1: in Jacksonville, and Leon knows this very well, he kind
- 4:24Speaker 1: of got called out a little bit on it today
- 4:26Speaker 1: and that you have some fans that think Jalen is
- 4:30Speaker 1: in the right, And you have some that wants to
- 4:34Speaker 1: uh that thinks the teams in the right, that managements
- 4:37Speaker 1: in the right, that that Doug Maron is okay. But
- 4:39Speaker 1: then there's people you know, that want to some group
- 4:41Speaker 1: blames Jalen, some blame Doug Maron, some blame Tom Coughlin,
- 4:46Speaker 1: some blame Dave Caldwell. So you have this huge diversity
- 4:51Speaker 1: of opinion or should I say divisiveness of opinion in
- 4:56Speaker 1: the community. Well, guess what the locker room is. But
- 5:00Speaker 1: it's about the same thing. It's it's the same way,
- 5:04Speaker 1: it's the same way. It's no different than what the
- 5:07Speaker 1: fan base's opinions are. And I guarantee you that the
- 5:11Speaker 1: locker room right now is number one, tired of answering
- 5:16Speaker 1: questions about Jalen Ramsey, tired of dealing with the issues
- 5:21Speaker 1: of Jalen Ramsey. And I'm sure that they want some
- 5:24Speaker 1: resolution one way or the other more so than anybody
- 5:29Speaker 1: else because it's their football team and it's it's becoming
- 5:32Speaker 1: a distraction. And in here here here's how I would
- 5:35Speaker 1: be if I was Jailing's teammate. One, I'm tired of it.
- 5:39Speaker 1: Number two, I'm tired of answering questions about it. And
- 5:42Speaker 1: number three, are you with us or are you not
- 5:45Speaker 1: with us? Because we've got we've got a football season
- 5:48Speaker 1: to play. It's not like it's a lost season yet either.
- 5:51Speaker 1: I mean, this is a season where there's some hope
- 5:53Speaker 1: and you know, they have a little momentum right now.
- 5:55Speaker 1: It feels like you know, an offense. To me, that's
- 5:59Speaker 1: the last one is the biggest thing. Hmm. If you
- 6:02Speaker 1: don't want to be with us, fine, when go go,
- 6:08Speaker 1: let me go. We'll be fine without you. But I
- 6:12Speaker 1: mean that would hurt me if I'm a member of
- 6:16Speaker 1: this team and that I've got we got a guy
- 6:18Speaker 1: on our team don't want to be with dude, I't
- 6:20Speaker 1: want to be here. He doesn't want to be here
- 6:22Speaker 1: with his brothers. And you know, and look, the head
- 6:24Speaker 1: coach can talk about how much jail and loves football
- 6:27Speaker 1: all he wants that he has, Yes, but you gotta
- 6:32Speaker 1: love your teammates and want to be with your teammates. Yeah, listen,
- 6:36Speaker 1: And winning football games is it's hard enough to do
- 6:40Speaker 1: in the NFL the weekend and week out, you know,
- 6:43Speaker 1: because you get you do with a lot of factors,
- 6:44Speaker 1: doing injuries, you deal with game planning, you deal with players, this, this,
- 6:48Speaker 1: and that. So to have someone there was supposed to
- 6:51Speaker 1: be your teammates, supposed to be your brother in arms,
- 6:53Speaker 1: be supposed to be there with you creating problem in
- 6:56Speaker 1: thessension within the locker room. And I don't know, listen,
- 6:58Speaker 1: we don'tly speculating. I'm sure or these guys there who
- 7:01Speaker 1: like on jailing side of these guys there are tied
- 7:03Speaker 1: to jailer. But that's the device of this thing and
- 7:06Speaker 1: at its best. And listen, I was on the team
- 7:08Speaker 1: in ninety six. You remember this, Jeffly ninety six. That
- 7:11Speaker 1: the whole thing where uh Andre Risen, the whole issue
- 7:13Speaker 1: with Andre Rising, there was a clear division in that
- 7:15Speaker 1: locker room between Andre Risen whether we should keep them
- 7:18Speaker 1: or let them go, and the locker room was separated,
- 7:21Speaker 1: and the best thing for the team at that particular
- 7:23Speaker 1: time was to get rid of Rising because there was
- 7:26Speaker 1: a dissension and we were trying to go go into
- 7:28Speaker 1: the season and win football games. So anytime you got
- 7:31Speaker 1: a guy who is clearly the decisive in the creating
- 7:34Speaker 1: division in the locking room, the management has to make
- 7:36Speaker 1: up in the mind and say, hey, listen, we're gonna
- 7:38Speaker 1: keep dealing with these issues, or we're gonna part ways
- 7:42Speaker 1: from us, try to start winning some football games and
- 7:44Speaker 1: then don't. I don't want anybody to misconstrue what what
- 7:47Speaker 1: being leon our opinion about jailing. As far as look,
- 7:51Speaker 1: if you're sick, you're sick. I'm not gonna argue that.
- 7:54Speaker 1: If it's legitimate and you're sick, you're sick. Uh, injuries
- 7:57Speaker 1: happened on the National Football League. And if you can't practice,
- 8:00Speaker 1: you get a DELF. That's nothing that's uncommon in the
- 8:02Speaker 1: National Football League. And then if if you are going
- 8:06Speaker 1: out of town to be there for the birth of
- 8:08Speaker 1: your second shop, I'm all for that, and Leon's all
- 8:12Speaker 1: for that. I mean, that's Look, there's nothing more important
- 8:14Speaker 1: than family. I mean, because you know what, when when
- 8:17Speaker 1: it's thirty years down the road and you're sitting there
- 8:20Speaker 1: looking back, going, boy, I really should have been there
- 8:23Speaker 1: at practice instead of there for the birth of my child,
- 8:25Speaker 1: and you're not gonna say that it's more important to
- 8:29Speaker 1: be there, you know, for your your wife, girlfriend, birth
- 8:32Speaker 1: of your child and those type of things. I mean,
- 8:34Speaker 1: so I'm all for that, but it feels it feels
- 8:38Speaker 1: odd and it's kind of the going to Nashville things
- 8:42Speaker 1: kind of it's kind of open ended, right is is
- 8:45Speaker 1: he is he going there for a day or two
- 8:47Speaker 1: and then he's gonna come back and be able to
- 8:49Speaker 1: be their first teammates? Is he gonna be there and
- 8:52Speaker 1: then maybe played by Ear? I mean, Howard works out,
- 8:55Speaker 1: It works out, But it's just everything I think together
- 8:59Speaker 1: and it's entire I think makes the whole situation odd.
- 9:03Speaker 1: And then you go back to the to the root
- 9:06Speaker 1: issue here or the root issues. The root issue for
- 9:09Speaker 1: the team I think should be that you have a
- 9:11Speaker 1: player that put his hands on the coach and that
- 9:13Speaker 1: still hasn't been has been addressed, hasn't been addressed. And
- 9:17Speaker 1: then the root issue apparently from jail and side of things,
- 9:21Speaker 1: that his displeasure with management, Well, we don't get to
- 9:25Speaker 1: hear from management. Has jail and had a conversation with management.
- 9:30Speaker 1: Has there been a gathering of those people to maybe
- 9:35Speaker 1: see if things can can work out. I mean, there's
- 9:38Speaker 1: just so much that is still kind of unanswered, so
- 9:41Speaker 1: to speak, or that the the loose ends haven't been
- 9:46Speaker 1: tied up so to speak, that you're just kind of
- 9:49Speaker 1: going what is going on? And uh, and it just
- 9:53Speaker 1: kind of leaves you hanging well, now it leaves the
- 9:57Speaker 1: defensive coordinator hanging as well. Todd Wash has to figure
- 10:00Speaker 1: out a couple of different ways to go about this game.
- 10:02Speaker 1: Will he have Jalen will he not have Jalen on
- 10:05Speaker 1: Sunday is a big question for him. He does know
- 10:08Speaker 1: he's confident in the guy who would take Jalen's place.
- 10:11Speaker 1: That's Trey Herndon. I even asked the dB coaches yesterday,
- 10:14Speaker 1: I said, does he ever talk? Um? You know? But
- 10:17Speaker 1: what he does is he does He comes in, works, um,
- 10:20Speaker 1: he prepares, and anything that he is given by the
- 10:23Speaker 1: position coaches or whatever it may be, he's going out
- 10:26Speaker 1: there and he's going to do it the best of
- 10:27Speaker 1: his ability. Um. You know, you've got to give a
- 10:29Speaker 1: lot of credit to the kid, obviously coming in as
- 10:32Speaker 1: a college free agent. How he's improved so much, you know,
- 10:36Speaker 1: and not only can he play outside, he's our backup nickel, um,
- 10:39Speaker 1: you know, and we feel very very comfortable with him
- 10:41Speaker 1: playing either spot, either outside or inside. So it's a
- 10:44Speaker 1: lot of credit to to him, and you know where
- 10:46Speaker 1: he's made himself now. So of course, the the statement
- 10:50Speaker 1: from Dug Bron last night said He'll return to the
- 10:52Speaker 1: team when he's ready. That's Jalen Ramsey and will provide
- 10:55Speaker 1: an update at that time. So what does that mean.
- 10:57Speaker 1: That might mean that Trey Herndon gets to play on
- 11:00Speaker 1: Sunday in Denver. How did Trey Herndon play the last time?
- 11:04Speaker 1: About two weeks ago? I thought two weeks ago that
- 11:08Speaker 1: that he played well enough and that was going back
- 11:10Speaker 1: to the Houston game correct when he filled it for
- 11:12Speaker 1: I thought that he played well enough that because of
- 11:16Speaker 1: the way that boy played in the first game, that
- 11:19Speaker 1: you would go, well, you know what, Trey hern is
- 11:23Speaker 1: maybe making a case that he should get maybe some
- 11:26Speaker 1: playing time. And uh so I thought he played well
- 11:30Speaker 1: and he had a pretty tough task because he's had
- 11:32Speaker 1: to cover Stills and also Will four the fifth and
- 11:36Speaker 1: in that ball game, which those two guys have some
- 11:38Speaker 1: pretty good speed. I think he did a pretty good
- 11:40Speaker 1: job overall. And so do I feel good about him
- 11:44Speaker 1: playing this week? Yes, I feel good about him. I
- 11:46Speaker 1: don't think the Broncos have a receiver that scares you,
- 11:49Speaker 1: and Joe Flacco is not playing that well. So is
- 11:52Speaker 1: this a game that you could that you could live without?
- 11:54Speaker 1: Jalen Randy Sure, but is it? Is it uh step
- 11:58Speaker 1: down in talent level from Trey Herndon gentlemen Ramsey. I mean, yeah,
- 12:01Speaker 1: everybody knows that. I mean it's gentlemen, Ramsey's one of
- 12:04Speaker 1: the one of the best in the league and that
- 12:06Speaker 1: that's no argument there. But this view one leon where
- 12:09Speaker 1: you know, if let's just hypothetically say the baby comes
- 12:13Speaker 1: on today, we don't we don't know the timetable or tomorrow,
- 12:18Speaker 1: and then he gets on a private jet Saturday from
- 12:20Speaker 1: Nashville and goes to Denver and joins the team and
- 12:23Speaker 1: plays on Sunday. Could that even be possible? It could be.
- 12:27Speaker 1: I could, like at Dion Sanders type of thing it be.
- 12:30Speaker 1: I mean, I I don't know that if he has
- 12:31Speaker 1: that in his repertoire, but if I mean, that would
- 12:34Speaker 1: show he's a team player if he does, If if
- 12:36Speaker 1: he sees the birth of his child and he size
- 12:38Speaker 1: on Friday, I'm gonna go see the team on Saturday,
- 12:40Speaker 1: and I'm gonna I don't see how the jack Walls
- 12:42Speaker 1: wouldn't pla him on Sunday. Listen, as much as hern
- 12:44Speaker 1: is getting an opportunity to play, you know, Jalen Ramsey
- 12:48Speaker 1: gives us the best chance to win. I mean, he's
- 12:49Speaker 1: the best d be in the country. You know, he
- 12:51Speaker 1: first half, one side of the field is completely shut
- 12:54Speaker 1: down when you've got that guy in there. So if
- 12:55Speaker 1: you can have them play, you have them play. But
- 12:58Speaker 1: you know, this hern is getting tremendous opportunity to play,
- 13:01Speaker 1: So let's see if he makes the most of But
- 13:03Speaker 1: I would be surprised. I would be shot. I would too.
- 13:06Speaker 1: Who who knows? You still know at this point, I mean,
- 13:09Speaker 1: this is taking so many twists and turns already. Wouldn't
- 13:11Speaker 1: that be another one? Another one of those moments to
- 13:14Speaker 1: where you just kind of go, hmm, what was that
- 13:18Speaker 1: so proper called these are the Days of our Lives?
- 13:20Speaker 1: This is it? This is what we used to watch that? Yeah, okay,
- 13:25Speaker 1: Days of our Lives? Okay, yeah, that was that was
- 13:29Speaker 1: back you know collegely on when you had that little
- 13:31Speaker 1: bit of free time between classes and you know classes.
- 13:34Speaker 1: You know, we used to go to a u v A. Yeah,
- 13:36Speaker 1: I went to class really breaking news. We used to
- 13:42Speaker 1: have a couple of guys and we used to watch that.
- 13:44Speaker 1: I mean, it was like the only thing that was
- 13:45Speaker 1: on television. Three channels, exactly three channels, exactly. Let's go back.

- 17:57Speaker 1: you know with your teammates. Um, it's a it's a
- 17:59Speaker 1: lot of fun to build Gardner Minshew, the second Jaguars quarterback.
- 18:04Speaker 1: Earlier this week Welcome Back Jaguars Happy Hour on a Thursday,
- 18:07Speaker 1: J P. Shadrick, Jeff Logum, and Leon Searcy from Jalen
- 18:11Speaker 1: Ramsey to Gardner Minshew And who wasn't for the Ramsey stuff,
- 18:15Speaker 1: he would be the top Jaguars story nationally. He's still
- 18:20Speaker 1: a big story nationally after what he's done in two
- 18:23Speaker 1: games and three quarters worth of football here, how long
- 18:28Speaker 1: does this thing last for Gardner? Uh, He's gonna look
- 18:31Speaker 1: like a rookie at some point, right, Honestly, I keep
- 18:34Speaker 1: waiting for him to look like a rookie, and I
- 18:38Speaker 1: keep waiting for it. And um, I made the prediction
- 18:42Speaker 1: when Jaguars are going to Houston and our little expert column,
- 18:47Speaker 1: you know that John Oshan puts together with everybody's thoughts
- 18:49Speaker 1: on the game, and I said, you know, this might
- 18:51Speaker 1: be tough for a rookie quarterback going in to a
- 18:53Speaker 1: hostile environment with a veteran defensive coordinator like Romeo Cornell.
- 18:58Speaker 1: And and he's probably gonna look like a rookie because
- 19:00Speaker 1: the metrics showed that they usually don't have success on
- 19:04Speaker 1: the road and their first start ever. Well played pretty
- 19:07Speaker 1: well when he had to. Yes, a lot of that
- 19:09Speaker 1: game the offense sputtered, but it mattered. He got him
- 19:12Speaker 1: down the field twice. You know. Then then all of
- 19:14Speaker 1: a sudden, prime time on a short week against the
- 19:17Speaker 1: division rival, and he comes out and and I don't
- 19:21Speaker 1: want to say that he was lights out and Patrick Mahomes,
- 19:24Speaker 1: I'm not saying he was that, but he was good,
- 19:26Speaker 1: and he was doing some things and identification and and
- 19:30Speaker 1: the way he reads plays that it you don't see
- 19:33Speaker 1: that by rookies. Now. For example, and Leon, you might
- 19:37Speaker 1: remember this play, the touchdown to chart. He literally he
- 19:43Speaker 1: gets the snap and as soon as he gets the snap,
- 19:46Speaker 1: he looks to his right. And why is he looking
- 19:49Speaker 1: to his right, because you gotta you gotta center field
- 19:51Speaker 1: safety and he's trying to hold, so he's he knows
- 19:54Speaker 1: where he's going with a football, gets the snap, looks right,
- 19:58Speaker 1: freezes the safety or he's trying the quote unquote move.
- 20:01Speaker 1: The safety with his eyes comes back and throws a
- 20:04Speaker 1: touchdown the chart and the safety has no chance if
- 20:06Speaker 1: he can getting over there. And I'm gonna show that
- 20:08Speaker 1: tonight on Jaguars All Access because I mean, you don't
- 20:12Speaker 1: see a rookie doing now, No, no, no. The best
- 20:16Speaker 1: thing about Garden to issue to me is that he's
- 20:18Speaker 1: a six down, a sixth round rookie in the big
- 20:21Speaker 1: boy league at the NFL, and he's not supposed to
- 20:24Speaker 1: be doing this, and he's doing it. So don't don't
- 20:27Speaker 1: tell him that he's not supposed to be doing this.
- 20:29Speaker 1: He's not supposed to be having over seventy completion he's
- 20:31Speaker 1: not supposed to have five and five touchdowns and one
- 20:33Speaker 1: and this one interception. One interception wasn't even he wasn't
- 20:36Speaker 1: even his fault. And he should have six touchdowns because
- 20:39Speaker 1: you know a touchdown was dropping the ends on seven,
- 20:41Speaker 1: seven and seven. Yes, you're right, seven, he should have
- 20:44Speaker 1: had seven. He doesn't get locked, yeah, oh boy, he
- 20:49Speaker 1: doesn't get the block, and he can't find markets. We're
- 20:51Speaker 1: gonna look at that one or so. I think. I
- 20:53Speaker 1: think that's the best thing going for this kid, because
- 20:54Speaker 1: initially when he came into the k C game, I
- 20:56Speaker 1: thought the kid was playing with house money. Nobody really
- 20:58Speaker 1: expect him to go in there and doing the thing. Whatever.
- 21:00Speaker 1: He gets his first start against the Texans start slow,
- 21:03Speaker 1: gets into the fourth quarter, gives us an opportunity drives
- 21:06Speaker 1: down not only with its on with his legs. We're
- 21:09Speaker 1: scrambling to get that first down, and what it gives
- 21:10Speaker 1: us an opportunity to win. Then on prime time, prime
- 21:13Speaker 1: time against the Titans, the team that we hadn't be
- 21:15Speaker 1: what five tries, six tries or whatever. He goes in
- 21:18Speaker 1: there wasn't lights out, but Listen goes to his progressions,
- 21:22Speaker 1: makes that that past the DD Westbrook. Everybody talked about
- 21:25Speaker 1: him when he came out of the combine that he
- 21:27Speaker 1: didn't have that NFL on, but he made that throw.
- 21:30Speaker 1: He made that throw over two defenders. Then that that
- 21:32Speaker 1: touched down the chark and the end zone. So the kid,
- 21:35Speaker 1: the kid is playing. You know, I like to refer
- 21:37Speaker 1: this to poker because I enjoyed poker. You know, I
- 21:39Speaker 1: got two jacks in my hand right now, and the
- 21:41Speaker 1: flop there's a jack. I'm gonna play my chips. I'm
- 21:44Speaker 1: not all in on Mansue right now, but each week,
- 21:48Speaker 1: each week, I'm gonna start keep bedding. I'm just gonna
- 21:51Speaker 1: keep mint you until I'm all in. Right now, Listen,
- 21:56Speaker 1: I'm putting my chips in from his issue every week
- 21:58Speaker 1: into until he proves me. It's he's different, though, I
- 22:03Speaker 1: mean it's you know, Doug Brown keeps using the word
- 22:05Speaker 1: he's different. He's different, he's different. Well, he's different because
- 22:07Speaker 1: he's a six round pick and he's having success in
- 22:10Speaker 1: the National Football League. When's the last time the six
- 22:15Speaker 1: round pick rookie quarterback or any late round pick quarterback
- 22:19Speaker 1: has ever had success right out of the Gateland National
- 22:21Speaker 1: Football League. I don't who his first year wasn't his
- 22:29Speaker 1: first year starting, I'm not sure. I don't think. I
- 22:32Speaker 1: don't think it was rookie. That's the only comparison I
- 22:36Speaker 1: can think of. But Tom didn't. He did do this
- 22:38Speaker 1: a rookie. You and I don't. I want to make
- 22:40Speaker 1: sure that we don't give ourselves a speeding ticket here.
- 22:44Speaker 1: I mean, the offense is averaging about nineteen points a game,
- 22:48Speaker 1: and they but but here's here's the other thing. What
- 22:51Speaker 1: kind of a running game has minshew? A rookie quarterback
- 22:56Speaker 1: had to support? Not much of a running game now,
- 23:00Speaker 1: I mean, prior to the sixty nine yard run, if
- 23:04Speaker 1: I remember correctly, he was fourteen carries for minus yardage
- 23:09Speaker 1: in four net. So if you get a better running
- 23:15Speaker 1: game or a more successful running game. What can that
- 23:19Speaker 1: do for the performance of your quarterback in the passing him?
- 23:21Speaker 1: It would naturally make it easier or better. And so
- 23:25Speaker 1: he's been able to do some of these things, seventy
- 23:28Speaker 1: plus completion percentage, protecting the football um, protecting himself, not
- 23:34Speaker 1: taking sacks, not getting delay of games, not using timeouts unnecessarily,
- 23:38Speaker 1: which is probably those things are probably more impressive than
- 23:42Speaker 1: anything else, just the management of the offense, because you're
- 23:46Speaker 1: talking about a rookie, and and I want to make
- 23:48Speaker 1: sure I say this because it's not all about Minsheu either. Yeah.
- 23:52Speaker 1: First of all, he's got to have a great supporting cast.
- 23:56Speaker 1: I think Lender's helping him out. I think the receivers
- 23:58Speaker 1: certainly are helping him out of d J. Chart has
- 24:01Speaker 1: been amazing. In fact, he should be a big as
- 24:04Speaker 1: big a story as Minshew should be. But the coaching
- 24:06Speaker 1: staff John D. Filipp Of the job that he has
- 24:09Speaker 1: been able to do with Gardner Minshew, I think is impressive.
- 24:12Speaker 1: Scott Milanovitch, the quarterbacks coach, Uh, those guys cannot be
- 24:16Speaker 1: their their performance or effort cannot be underestimated in the
- 24:19Speaker 1: success of Gardner Minshew, how did you start the run
- 24:23Speaker 1: game on the offensive line. What we asked you guys
- 24:26Speaker 1: about this this week, but just from the outside looking
- 24:28Speaker 1: at well, I mean, listen, the run game is not
- 24:31Speaker 1: established on Sunday. The run game has established the week
- 24:34Speaker 1: before the game. There's a mindset. I mean, you've got
- 24:36Speaker 1: to go into a game on Sunday with the mindset
- 24:39Speaker 1: that you want to run the football whatever you need
- 24:41Speaker 1: to do as offense, as an offensive line. I know
- 24:43Speaker 1: when we was here, when mea but Sully was here,
- 24:45Speaker 1: I mean, as as phanomben of a passing team. We
- 24:48Speaker 1: were with Mark Bronelle and Jimmy Smith and Keena ma
- 24:51Speaker 1: Car there we were literally come off to the sideline
- 24:54Speaker 1: and say run the ball, you know, because enough of
- 24:58Speaker 1: this passing. How did you say, well, I left if
- 25:02Speaker 1: you can say, I don't know sure if you say damn.
- 25:04Speaker 1: But when you say run the dawn ball, Okay, So
- 25:06Speaker 1: you come to the sideline and say run the down ball.
- 25:08Speaker 1: And then we had phenomenal athletes. We have phenomenal players
- 25:11Speaker 1: on our team. But it's a mindset, listen. We used
- 25:14Speaker 1: to we used to gather together as a group with
- 25:17Speaker 1: the offensive line and the running backs and we will
- 25:19Speaker 1: watch the film together, we will watch the film and
- 25:21Speaker 1: we would say that says, okay, okay, here's a hole here,
- 25:23Speaker 1: here's a whole here. You know, because the meeting potatoes
- 25:26Speaker 1: of your run game is your two guards in your center,
- 25:28Speaker 1: your ability to the double team, the one to get
- 25:31Speaker 1: to the mic, and your ability to the single block,
- 25:33Speaker 1: the three technique and running in between the tackles. So
- 25:35Speaker 1: that that has got to be established by this team.
- 25:38Speaker 1: If you're going to run the ball entirely, you've got
- 25:40Speaker 1: to establish that. But that doesn't happen overnight. It happens Wednesday, Thursday.
- 25:46Speaker 1: Fried in whatever drills you're doing, as whatever drills you're
- 25:50Speaker 1: doing his offensive line, as far as get offs, stand low,
- 25:53Speaker 1: being physical with your hands, bending your knees, rolling your hips,
- 25:56Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff, you've got to incorporate that
- 25:58Speaker 1: kind of stuff in your offense of coordinating the offensive line,
- 26:01Speaker 1: course say look, we got to get this game going
- 26:03Speaker 1: because we've got to help this kid. Because the offensive
- 26:06Speaker 1: line gets a running game going, this kid is gonna
- 26:08Speaker 1: be even more phenomenal. Man Doug Rounch talked U a
- 26:12Speaker 1: couple of different times and mentioned the offensive line needing
- 26:15Speaker 1: to get better. I'm a big believer that it's not
- 26:18Speaker 1: just about the offensive line. I'm a big believer in
- 26:21Speaker 1: that Leonard Fournett has got to be better too, and
- 26:23Speaker 1: there's some holes that he missed that he could have
- 26:26Speaker 1: created some things for the offense if he's got better vision.
- 26:30Speaker 1: A lot of times people say, well, why why is
- 26:33Speaker 1: Leonard Fournette doing the short steps, which indicates he and
- 26:39Speaker 1: there's a term for that, and I'm not going to
- 26:41Speaker 1: use the term for it, but it's it's stepping gingerly.
- 26:44Speaker 1: I'll just say that. And and for me, that means
- 26:48Speaker 1: that he he's indecisive and where he wants to run
- 26:51Speaker 1: the ball when he's pitter pattery, and that's another way
- 26:54Speaker 1: to describe it. And if his vision gets better or
- 26:57Speaker 1: is better, then he can be more to iceive and
- 27:00Speaker 1: then you're not seeing the pitter patter of the feet.
- 27:03Speaker 1: So the running game is always a shared deal. It's
- 27:07Speaker 1: from the offensive line to the running backs and tight ends.
- 27:11Speaker 1: You gotta include them in there. And and there's no
- 27:13Speaker 1: fullbacks in that mix because they're part of the tight
- 27:15Speaker 1: ends too. But everybody's got to be better. And if
- 27:18Speaker 1: anybody wants to sit there and point the finger at
- 27:20Speaker 1: one area of concern that why it's not working. Then
- 27:25Speaker 1: they're mistaken because that's not how it works. Well started
- 27:28Speaker 1: with the old line. Yeah, but but also also, and
- 27:32Speaker 1: you're saying that about learning the Pito pad and whatever,
- 27:34Speaker 1: if he's not used to seeing holes, he doesn't know
- 27:37Speaker 1: where they're going to be there, you know what I'm saying.
- 27:39Speaker 1: So so if if you if you're not consistently giving
- 27:42Speaker 1: him holes or what they call it, dayly running the daylight,
- 27:45Speaker 1: then he's going to be Pito paddle waiting for it
- 27:47Speaker 1: to happen. So if the offensive line, I'm gonna always
- 27:50Speaker 1: be build on the offense line at the offensive line
- 27:52Speaker 1: with a little bit more consistent in creating holes so
- 27:55Speaker 1: let it can see him because you know, at times
- 27:57Speaker 1: it's I think it's vision just questionable at times, just
- 28:00Speaker 1: being honest, doubt about Philip Lindsay. And watch Philip Lindsay
- 28:05Speaker 1: and he's a pound five ft but eight back something
- 28:10Speaker 1: like that, and all sudden he's like he's got great vision.
- 28:14Speaker 1: And that's something that that Leonard doesn't have. And and
- 28:18Speaker 1: that's why you remember we had was a two years
- 28:21Speaker 1: ago we were talking about this debate, what what kind
- 28:23Speaker 1: of scheme. Does Leonard Bournette need to run in a
- 28:25Speaker 1: gap scheme or a zone scheme? Well, and the consensus
- 28:29Speaker 1: was he needs to run a gap scheme, you know,
- 28:31Speaker 1: had the full back in front and then have a
- 28:33Speaker 1: defined hole because when you have a defined hole, that's
- 28:36Speaker 1: the momentum and he's gonna hit it. Well, the zone
- 28:39Speaker 1: scheme is that's where you gotta have vision as a back.
- 28:42Speaker 1: I mean, Terrell Davis, the Thurman Thomas is some of
- 28:45Speaker 1: the great backs in the National Football League. Philip Lindsay
- 28:48Speaker 1: has great vision to run a zone type of scheme.
- 28:50Speaker 1: And that's not That's not Leonard's forte is the zone scheme.
- 28:54Speaker 1: And the reason I don't think that that's his forte
- 28:56Speaker 1: is I don't think he has that great vision that
- 28:59Speaker 1: a back needs to have to run that type of scheme.
- 29:01Speaker 1: And and I hope that, you know, the offensive line
- 29:04Speaker 1: can do a better job to make it easier for
- 29:06Speaker 1: him to be decisive. And uh and the other thing
- 29:10Speaker 1: I will say this, why not give a couple of
- 29:13Speaker 1: totes to rock? So that's yeah. Leonard played has played
- 29:17Speaker 1: one hundred and sixties seven snaps out of one hundred
- 29:20Speaker 1: seventy seven on offense this season. He's only missed ten
- 29:24Speaker 1: snaps all season. On snaps, well, I give him credit
- 29:27Speaker 1: like he's been. He's been really good and past protection,
- 29:30Speaker 1: which is what they wanted him to be. I mean,
- 29:31Speaker 1: in fact, this past game, I mean he was flat
- 29:34Speaker 1: out mean in past protection, which is a great for him,
- 29:37Speaker 1: which he did get really positive and uh, and he's
- 29:40Speaker 1: been very good out of the backfield. He's got I
- 29:42Speaker 1: think a couple of drops, but uh, but I mean overall,
- 29:45Speaker 1: I think he's been very effective. He's been uh in
- 29:48Speaker 1: tune with everything they need to do, you know. But
- 29:51Speaker 1: I mean, you got a draft pick in Armstead, and
- 29:53Speaker 1: and especially like that after the long run, you got
- 29:56Speaker 1: a sixty nine yard run. Okay, now put in arms
- 30:00Speaker 1: dead and let Leonard have an opportunity to catch his
- 30:02Speaker 1: breath because the plays that he had after that long
- 30:05Speaker 1: run we're not that great. I think he scores him
- 30:07Speaker 1: a long run if he's not worn out either, well
- 30:09Speaker 1: maybe I don't don't remember anybody ever catching him. Maybe not.
- 30:12Speaker 1: I mean, look, he's incredibly fast. I mean, I mean,
- 30:14Speaker 1: there's no doubt about that. And so I mean, you
- 30:17Speaker 1: don't give give Armstead an opportunity and unless see where
- 30:21Speaker 1: it goes. And I'm not saying take away of the
- 30:25Speaker 1: carries for four net. I'm saying, like, you know, seventy
- 30:28Speaker 1: five five or eighty twenty, I mean, why not? Yeah,
- 30:33Speaker 1: but he's been outstanding on that bliss picked up you
- 30:35Speaker 1: know what the rookie quarterback. With a rookie quarterback, you know,
- 30:38Speaker 1: if his coordinated, is gonna put some heat on him.
- 30:40Speaker 1: So he's been picking up on those Blisses real well.
- 30:42Speaker 1: Speaking of heat, um, guess what's on the menu this week? Um?

- 35:52Speaker 1: Leon Searcy, Jeff log I'm glad you will us Jags
- 35:56Speaker 1: and the Broncos coming up Sunday for Eastern Time kick off.
- 36:00Speaker 1: Flash and Sullivan with the update. There Yeah, men, hu
- 36:03Speaker 1: Mania as kind of tell you the if you're on
- 36:05Speaker 1: radio listening to us. Brandon Lender at the end of
- 36:08Speaker 1: the interview put his finger over his upper lip as
- 36:10Speaker 1: if he had a mustache. That was part of the
- 36:13Speaker 1: deal there. Um. Now to the other side and the
- 36:18Speaker 1: Denver Broncos are oh and three and they have not
- 36:23Speaker 1: had a takeaway on defense. They have not had a
- 36:25Speaker 1: sack on defense this year. Von Miller still plays for
- 36:29Speaker 1: the football team. Bradley Chubb had twelve and a half
- 36:32Speaker 1: sacks a year ago. He's now in his second season.
- 36:34Speaker 1: He's been held out of there this year. How far
- 36:37Speaker 1: away are they from some of these logs. Well, let
- 36:40Speaker 1: me say this about how rare it is for a
- 36:43Speaker 1: team to go three games into the season without a sack,
- 36:46Speaker 1: without a takeaway. It's never happened before. Ever, never happened,
- 36:54Speaker 1: which I think is sacks started becoming a stato, So
- 36:58Speaker 1: incredibly rare and uh. They are two phenomenal players on
- 37:03Speaker 1: the edge, both Chub and Miller, and I think a
- 37:06Speaker 1: big part of their lack of pressure their offense has
- 37:10Speaker 1: only scored like fifteen points a game. Joe Flacco has
- 37:13Speaker 1: not been very good. Yeah, so uh to rush the
- 37:17Speaker 1: pass or you gotta have a little bit of a lead.
- 37:21Speaker 1: For example, look at the Jaguars this past game. You
- 37:23Speaker 1: get two scores, bang, bang, and you're up fourteen and nothing.
- 37:27Speaker 1: And now all of a sudden, the opponent feels a
- 37:29Speaker 1: little bit of a need to throw the football. And
- 37:32Speaker 1: you have a defense that has had zero sacks from
- 37:36Speaker 1: their defensive line prior to that game on Thursday night,
- 37:39Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, they break out for eight
- 37:40Speaker 1: and a half on the defensive line in one game
- 37:43Speaker 1: because it got a fourteen point lead early in that
- 37:45Speaker 1: ball game. And the Broncos have not had that for
- 37:48Speaker 1: their team yet. And you know it's gonna come at
- 37:52Speaker 1: some point. Obviously, you don't want it to happen this week.
- 37:55Speaker 1: But Leon, if you are, let's say you're right tackle
- 37:59Speaker 1: and here's Von Miller, three time All Pro, multiple Pro
- 38:03Speaker 1: bowler on the other side, who hasn't had a sack yet.
- 38:07Speaker 1: What do you prepare for? If you're wanting, what do
- 38:09Speaker 1: I do? What I ask for? Run the ball, Run
- 38:12Speaker 1: the ball first, exactly. Listen, you've got to be able
- 38:16Speaker 1: to run the ball against von Miller, because if you
- 38:18Speaker 1: become a one dimension of the von Miller has probably
- 38:20Speaker 1: one of the quickest first steps off the ball that
- 38:23Speaker 1: I've seen about a defense. But I mean, he reminds
- 38:25Speaker 1: me a lot of a guy I will played up
- 38:26Speaker 1: against unfortunately Arrowhead and Derrick Thomas. Derrick Thomas was as
- 38:32Speaker 1: quick as quick as a cat, especially coming off the ball,
- 38:34Speaker 1: especially around there. It reminds me a lot of that.
- 38:36Speaker 1: It doesn't give you a lot to hit too as well.
- 38:38Speaker 1: It never gives you a full body. He's always giving
- 38:40Speaker 1: you a half a body. He's already moving this body,
- 38:42Speaker 1: maneuvering this body. So it's gonna be a tough task
- 38:44Speaker 1: with Joe on telling because not only you have to
- 38:45Speaker 1: deal with von Miller, I deal with the crowd, noise
- 38:48Speaker 1: and mass majority of the time of the game. If
- 38:50Speaker 1: the jack was which I'm hoping it doesn't happen, if
- 38:52Speaker 1: the jag Walls get fall behind early. Now you put yourself,
- 38:55Speaker 1: you put your rookie in a predicament where he's gonna
- 38:57Speaker 1: have to pass for debt against this guy. Because the
- 39:00Speaker 1: Jaguars are feeling a little bit of desperation trying to
- 39:02Speaker 1: get back in the game and having to throw the ball.
- 39:04Speaker 1: So the best, the best thing that can happen for
- 39:06Speaker 1: this jag Wars offense in this game is to run
- 39:09Speaker 1: the ball, to be to be to be able to
- 39:12Speaker 1: run the ball and pass the ball, because that takes
- 39:14Speaker 1: the pressure off the tackles. Now, I'm not sure who's
- 39:16Speaker 1: gonna be playing the left and right. I know Jowan
- 39:18Speaker 1: is gonna be at right. I'm not sure it sounds
- 39:19Speaker 1: like you're gonna have his hands for too. Bradley Chub.
- 39:24Speaker 1: I mean, he gets after it as well. So the
- 39:26Speaker 1: best thing that you can do for these you know,
- 39:28Speaker 1: young tackles, left and right tackles, for the jack walls
- 39:32Speaker 1: is to have some ballots giving them an opportunity to
- 39:35Speaker 1: run the ball, giving the opportunity to where they're nine
- 39:38Speaker 1: third and long situations where they have to protect the
- 39:40Speaker 1: quarterback a lot longer. So I would say the best
- 39:43Speaker 1: thing is to run the ball to give your tackles
- 39:46Speaker 1: a chance against these phenoms that rushed the pass. Now
- 39:49Speaker 1: in Leon's right, I mean that if you can have
- 39:52Speaker 1: manageable third downs, and you can get the manageable third
- 39:56Speaker 1: downs by controlled passing attack and then also running the
- 39:59Speaker 1: football successfully. Now, if you're looking at third and three
- 40:02Speaker 1: or third and four, then all of a sudden, the
- 40:04Speaker 1: ears aren't his pin back, so to speak, for a
- 40:07Speaker 1: pass rusher, because the reality is von Miller. Look at
- 40:10Speaker 1: his numbers. He's got ninety eight career sacks and now
- 40:13Speaker 1: he's in his ninth year, so he basically got ninety
- 40:16Speaker 1: eight regular season career sacks in eight years. That's averaging
- 40:20Speaker 1: twelve sacks a year. Twelve sacks a year. That's phenomenal.
- 40:25Speaker 1: That there's two guys in the league that has the
- 40:28Speaker 1: sacks per game numbers that are just ridiculous, and that's J. J.
- 40:33Speaker 1: Watt and Von Miller. And I think von miller is
- 40:36Speaker 1: is might be higher, but uh, it is crazy to think.
- 40:40Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden, you got a second
- 40:42Speaker 1: year player Bradley Chubb. On the other side, You've got
- 40:46Speaker 1: bon Miller average in twelve a year, and then Bradley
- 40:48Speaker 1: Chubb and his rookie year came out and had twelve.
- 40:52Speaker 1: You know, so these guys are phenomenal football players. Bradley
- 40:55Speaker 1: Chubb was a consensus uh first round pick. Many people
- 41:00Speaker 1: wanted him. He's fifth overall, kind of fell in the
- 41:02Speaker 1: lap of the Denver Broncos, and they did the right
- 41:05Speaker 1: thing and took them. I mean, you're talking about two
- 41:08Speaker 1: of the best edge defenders in football. I don't care
- 41:11Speaker 1: if they don't have a sack. I don't care that
- 41:14Speaker 1: they don't have a takeaway yet, because I do know this.
- 41:17Speaker 1: These two guys have the ability to dominate. That's how
- 41:21Speaker 1: good they are. And if you if you play so
- 41:25Speaker 1: if you play their style of game, which means you
- 41:28Speaker 1: get behind behind the chains or if you get behind
- 41:31Speaker 1: on the scoreboard, it'll make for one incredibly long day
- 41:35Speaker 1: because you gotta remember something now, they have like four
- 41:38Speaker 1: hundred or how many consecutive sellouts, four hundred and four
- 41:44Speaker 1: in Denver home sellout, and that place can rock. There
- 41:48Speaker 1: ain't no doubt if all of a sudden they've got
- 41:50Speaker 1: a to score, lead to possession lead, and it's third
- 41:54Speaker 1: and long. Do you think you're gonna be able to
- 41:57Speaker 1: hear snap counter, have a snap count? So you're talking
- 42:00Speaker 1: about that quick first step that von Miller has. You
- 42:03Speaker 1: think it's quick, wait till you gotta go silent count.
- 42:06Speaker 1: That is really quick. And then I remember some years
- 42:09Speaker 1: ago when they were here, the Broncos came in here
- 42:12Speaker 1: for a game and it was late and they needed
- 42:15Speaker 1: a sack to to end the game, and it was
- 42:18Speaker 1: he was shut down all day. But here comes in
- 42:21Speaker 1: a moment when they needed a pass rush. He found
- 42:25Speaker 1: a way. He got home sack fumble. Good night, see
- 42:28Speaker 1: you next week. So I mean, go go to the
- 42:29Speaker 1: super Bowl. Yeah right, I mean super Bowl m v
- 42:33Speaker 1: P exactly. He was disruptive, but the Carolina the Panther's
- 42:38Speaker 1: office and I did not have an answer for the
- 42:39Speaker 1: whole game, whole game kill him. So we got that
- 42:43Speaker 1: going for us, which is nice. Yeah. And look, look
- 42:47Speaker 1: and kind of part of that who's gonna face von Miller?
- 42:51Speaker 1: Von Miller's is for the most part, he's a left
- 42:54Speaker 1: side pass rusher. So Joan Taylor is gonna see him
- 42:57Speaker 1: against the right tackle. Yeah. So and here here's the reality.
- 43:01Speaker 1: John tell Us a good football player. I mean he
- 43:04Speaker 1: is he perfect? No, because he still got some things
- 43:07Speaker 1: he needs to get better at with his hands, yes,
- 43:10Speaker 1: But I think the one thing that has impressed me
- 43:12Speaker 1: about him, He's faced some really good players already and
- 43:16Speaker 1: he has handled him. And the one thing that he
- 43:19Speaker 1: has I think that is a gift. He is incredibly strong.
- 43:23Speaker 1: He's one of those guys that you go back to
- 43:27Speaker 1: like Luke jokel Luke Joko used to have to be
- 43:29Speaker 1: able to worry about power, and he had to prepare
- 43:32Speaker 1: for power, and he got into that bad habit of
- 43:34Speaker 1: duck in his head. John Teller don't need to duck
- 43:37Speaker 1: his head. He's one of these guys that just he
- 43:40Speaker 1: engulfs people and he handles their power and he just
- 43:44Speaker 1: and he just absorbs it. It's not a big deal
- 43:46Speaker 1: for him. And what what's scary is when he finally
- 43:50Speaker 1: gets it, he's gonna be punishing guys, punishing. I'm telling you,
- 43:55Speaker 1: I watched him. He's a puppy bard. Then he's on
- 43:58Speaker 1: the chain. He's not the pit bull yet. But when
- 44:00Speaker 1: becomes a pit he's gonna stop punishing people, trust me.
- 44:03Speaker 1: And he moves people in the run game now when
- 44:05Speaker 1: he wants to. When he when he gets it going
- 44:07Speaker 1: in the run game, he can move people. He is uh,
- 44:11Speaker 1: he is gonna be in my opinion, I think you're
- 44:15Speaker 1: talking about you've You've got a guy that's gonna be
- 44:19Speaker 1: in a conversation every year for the Pro Bowl at
- 44:21Speaker 1: some point, and he is your he is your right
- 44:24Speaker 1: tackle for a decade like that. I like it too.
- 44:28Speaker 1: That's nice and if you're right, I just want to
- 44:32Speaker 1: make sure I was accurate to get my get the
- 44:34Speaker 1: back in of a former right tackle that was all
- 44:36Speaker 1: fired up lug. I like him. I mean, look, I
- 44:38Speaker 1: liked him in the draft. I didn't like him as
- 44:40Speaker 1: a as the top pick because he was a right
- 44:42Speaker 1: tackle and that's for me, that's a little bit high
- 44:44Speaker 1: for that position. But I mean, this guy, Juan Taylor
- 44:47Speaker 1: is a is a good football player, good football player.
- 44:50Speaker 1: Let's come back. We'll go around the league a little bit.
- 44:52Speaker 1: It's one of the things happening. There are other teams
- 44:54Speaker 1: in the National Football League. We'll touch on some of

- 49:37Speaker 1: press conference, right, and there was a whole band on
- 49:39Speaker 1: stage and Prince goes up. He's like, I'll take some questions.

- 49:50Speaker 1: Didn't didn't who the Hoop? Uh? Played one? I know?
- 49:54Speaker 1: The Rolling Stones did did one? It was good. I
- 49:57Speaker 1: mean they've gone through everybody now, Tom Petty did one. Springster.
- 50:00Speaker 1: There's a lot of even just that was the infamous
- 50:05Speaker 1: when all that was the one a couple of years
- 50:07Speaker 1: ago in Minnesota, and then the infamous one with Janet
- 50:09Speaker 1: Jackson also was so good. Yeah when I when I
- 50:12Speaker 1: was in Super Bowl thirty, all my family was there,
- 50:15Speaker 1: my mom big down, the Rosstan had no idea how
- 50:18Speaker 1: the Ross was going to be performing a little tree
- 50:23Speaker 1: where the supremes there too, just just the boss. How
- 50:27Speaker 1: many are still around? But Diana is still around? Okay,
- 50:31Speaker 1: let's get to football now, not the entertainment around football.
- 50:35Speaker 1: Chargers running back Melvin Gordon ending is hold out. He
- 50:38Speaker 1: won't play this week. He's gotta be on the roster
- 50:40Speaker 1: for eight games to get the final year of his
- 50:42Speaker 1: contract to become a free agent. But he's back after
- 50:45Speaker 1: holding out and got zero dollars. That that's what Melvin
- 50:50Speaker 1: Gordon accomplished. Okay, what's an l By holding out? He
- 50:55Speaker 1: took a huge ail. Yeah, I mean he made he
- 50:58Speaker 1: made a mistake. He held out and he has he
- 51:02Speaker 1: had no leverage and all he did was cost himself money.
- 51:07Speaker 1: And now what will be interesting will will the team
- 51:11Speaker 1: institute the finds that he's accumulated in his absence, because
- 51:16Speaker 1: they could end up trying to essentially make make him
- 51:21Speaker 1: pay for all the things that he's already missed because
- 51:23Speaker 1: he was under contract, and that's one point two million
- 51:26Speaker 1: dollars in five Yeah, he's gonna have to pay. And
- 51:29Speaker 1: don't you think this. You gotta think this as well.
- 51:31Speaker 1: If he if he came back and he was ready
- 51:34Speaker 1: to go and he passed the physical, don't you think
- 51:36Speaker 1: they will get him ready to play on Sunday? Or
- 51:38Speaker 1: is that them sending a match is like, we really
- 51:40Speaker 1: don't need you. M M. I don't know. If he's
- 51:45Speaker 1: a healthy pass thing, he comes in and he he's
- 51:48Speaker 1: ready to play, that would make him Well, they say
- 51:51Speaker 1: they got to get him acclimated. Sure, okay, ten days. Well,
- 51:55Speaker 1: I mean like like Zeke Zeke took him how long?
- 51:58Speaker 1: Like a couple of days? They take a couple of day.
- 52:00Speaker 1: Remember who the Chargers are playing this week? The Dolphins?
- 52:03Speaker 1: So yeah, does that have anything to do with it?
- 52:05Speaker 1: You know? Uh no, I mean I don't think you'd
- 52:08Speaker 1: take that in consideration. But I think the fact of
- 52:12Speaker 1: the matter is as Melvin gore and accomplished nothing with
- 52:16Speaker 1: his whole out, and that was a mistake on his part. Well, yeah,
- 52:20Speaker 1: he had to come back because if he had sat
- 52:21Speaker 1: out a year, he would have had another year, he
- 52:23Speaker 1: would have been under contract again for the same amount
- 52:25Speaker 1: that he just bypassed. Saints quarterback Drew Brees set on
- 52:29Speaker 1: a radio interview in New Orleans that he hopes to
- 52:31Speaker 1: beat the odds and gets back from his thumb injury
- 52:33Speaker 1: earlier than the six week prognosis. Originally, the doctor inserted
- 52:37Speaker 1: an internal brace, Breeze said, and that allows him to
- 52:40Speaker 1: remove the cast in a couple of weeks to begin rehab.
- 52:43Speaker 1: If Drew Breese thinks that he should or could come
- 52:47Speaker 1: back in less than six weeks, I got some diamond
- 52:51Speaker 1: don't want to sell. Oh wow, he's holding one out there, Okay,
- 52:57Speaker 1: because it's close to home for Drew. I mean, look,
- 53:00Speaker 1: what the reality is is, uh, if you can't you
- 53:03Speaker 1: can't change what medically is needed for the body to heal.
- 53:09Speaker 1: Um if he does come back earlier than that, here's
- 53:12Speaker 1: the one thing he is doing. He is putting his
- 53:15Speaker 1: body and his career at risk because he's his body
- 53:19Speaker 1: won't be healed if he comes back sooner than six weeks.
- 53:24Speaker 1: Some people even say that it should be like a
- 53:27Speaker 1: three month healing process. Anyway, Well, he got a lot
- 53:32Speaker 1: of advice, like Mike Trout baseball player had this similar
- 53:35Speaker 1: injury with a couple of other people who had it. Well,
- 53:38Speaker 1: you know baseball, well you know football players. Sometimes we
- 53:42Speaker 1: could be out worse ending then we can't be and
- 53:45Speaker 1: he probably needs to heal. On this interview, the quarterback
- 53:49Speaker 1: and it's his it's his throwing thumb last time I checked.
- 53:54Speaker 1: That's a critical part of the playing quarterback position in
- 53:59Speaker 1: most fense. So you might want to make sure that
- 54:01Speaker 1: that's healed before you try to come back. A Navy
- 54:04Speaker 1: you can get away with that. Here's a question that
- 54:07Speaker 1: I have if Teddy Bridgewater came out stunk it up,
- 54:11Speaker 1: Leon okay, woul Drew Brees be coming back, coming out
- 54:16Speaker 1: saying the same thing, you know, he would Drew Brees going, Yeah,
- 54:22Speaker 1: that's my job and we're winning without me, And that's
- 54:25Speaker 1: not the way I kind of envisioned it anyway, just
- 54:28Speaker 1: saying nice job, by the way, nice job Teddy bridge
- 54:32Speaker 1: great and the locker room speech. Did you see that
- 54:34Speaker 1: after it was fantastic? Yes, I didn't see it. Nearly
- 54:38Speaker 1: broke down in tears in front of the team with
- 54:39Speaker 1: the game ball and the whole deal. Good for him
- 54:41Speaker 1: and I'm happy for him. Because you know what, Teddy
- 54:43Speaker 1: Bridgewater has been through a lot. You've been through a lot.
- 54:46Speaker 1: And I remember that kid in high school, and I
- 54:48Speaker 1: used to get when I was coaching. I used to
- 54:49Speaker 1: go to Northwestern and watch the kid. It's phenomenal, phenomenal
- 54:53Speaker 1: high school. Barkley, speaking of injuries, suffered a high ankle
- 54:57Speaker 1: spring last week, but after a second opinion, he will
- 54:59Speaker 1: not have surgery. Expected to miss more than a month. Well,
- 55:03Speaker 1: high ankle sprains are typically about eight weeks. Yeah, I mean,
- 55:09Speaker 1: so you would rather have a break, I think in
- 55:11Speaker 1: some cases than a than a high ankle. So that'll
- 55:15Speaker 1: be an interesting watch and pretty interesting because st. Kwon Barkley.
- 55:21Speaker 1: The topic of him kind of came up in the
- 55:23Speaker 1: preparation for this Broncos game because the next running back
- 55:28Speaker 1: who has the most total yardage output behind Barkley is
- 55:32Speaker 1: Philip Lindsay, who the Jaguars will face. So here you
- 55:36Speaker 1: got this. You know, the top pick of the draft
- 55:38Speaker 1: and Sat Kwon Barkley, who obviously is a phenomenal player,
- 55:43Speaker 1: and then the next closest guy to him is an
- 55:45Speaker 1: undrafted guy that did end up signing with the hometown
- 55:49Speaker 1: team the Broncos, and it's Philip Lindsay. So anyway, I
- 55:53Speaker 1: hope Barkley hills quickly. And the reason why is because
- 55:58Speaker 1: Daniel Jones would like to have him in New York.
- 56:00Speaker 1: And by the way, congratulations to Daniel Jones. Just played
- 56:03Speaker 1: pretty well, really well last week? Yeah right, and didn't
- 56:08Speaker 1: didn't everybody criticized the pick of Daniel Jones. Well, guess
- 56:12Speaker 1: who picked him in the mock draft in this radio program. Yes,
- 56:16Speaker 1: I did. Yes, you got mocked for that mock draft.
- 56:18Speaker 1: I like, I like Daniel. Who's who's laughing now, Leon? Yeah,
- 56:22Speaker 1: you get the last I'm laughing. Yeah. My my two
- 56:25Speaker 1: guys that I liked him the draft. I liked Haskins
- 56:29Speaker 1: and I like Daniel Jones. I thought they were both, uh,
- 56:33Speaker 1: really good option. I was not a big Caler Murray guy,
- 56:36Speaker 1: Um he looks tiny out there. Yeah, just small, right small?
- 56:42Speaker 1: The other guy that probably looked smaller in the league.
- 56:44Speaker 1: And I don't know if you saw the highlights of them, Leon,
- 56:47Speaker 1: but uh, the wide receiver Brown for the Baltimore Ravens.
- 56:56Speaker 1: I mean, you talk about small, oh fast, and he's
- 57:01Speaker 1: gonna have to be fast. I would, I would, I'll
- 57:04Speaker 1: be honest with you. That if I were a general
- 57:06Speaker 1: manager of the Baltimore Ravens, if I saw him in person,
- 57:09Speaker 1: ain't no way. I can't draft. I can't draft him.
- 57:13Speaker 1: He's too small. But he's a good football player. Alright,
- 57:18Speaker 1: final thought here Thursday Night football Tonight, we'll hear from
- 57:20Speaker 1: Tony Bassali coming up for the second part of the
- 57:22Speaker 1: Doug Moron Show. He is at Lambeau Field tonight. But
- 57:25Speaker 1: the Eagles that wanted to face the Packers three and
- 57:28Speaker 1: oh at Lambeau Who you got tonight, guys, Leon you think? Um,
- 57:33Speaker 1: he looks I've got Green Bay winning it. But Aaron
- 57:37Speaker 1: Rodgers hasn't been Aaron Roger risque, and I don't know
- 57:40Speaker 1: how long that's gonna last. The defense has kept him
- 57:42Speaker 1: in games. Defense get the second defense, the ranked number
- 57:46Speaker 1: two behind the Patriots. They're only allowing the eleven point
- 57:49Speaker 1: nine points of the game. They've got eight turnovers, so
- 57:52Speaker 1: they've been covering. They've been covering the Patriots, I mean,
- 57:54Speaker 1: the Packers for the last three games. But it's hard
- 57:58Speaker 1: to win the Lambeau it's hard to win. And the
- 58:00Speaker 1: Eagles they're decimated with injuries. They got a couple of
- 58:02Speaker 1: guys coming back I know, uh, the wide receivers coming back, Jeffries,
- 58:07Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be back. Jeff was gonna be
- 58:09Speaker 1: back with the game. That might help a little bit.
- 58:11Speaker 1: But I just don't see the Eagles going in there.
- 58:14Speaker 1: And this isn't they have to win this game. They
- 58:16Speaker 1: can't go into the division with the Cowboys undefeated and
- 58:18Speaker 1: be one in three. They might so, I mean, they
- 58:21Speaker 1: they might end up being that way. But here's the reality.
- 58:23Speaker 1: The success rate of a road team on a short
- 58:26Speaker 1: week Thursday night football is not very good. Take the
- 58:29Speaker 1: home team every time, Packers. You got the Packers. I'll
- 58:34Speaker 1: take the Packers to okay, because you're right, Aaron Rodgers
- 58:37Speaker 1: will turn into Aaron Rodgers at some point as well
- 58:39Speaker 1: to match that deepense. So you have it. I'll do
- 58:42Speaker 1: it for our program tonight. Leon will talk to you
- 58:44Speaker 1: on Sunday. You got it for the public's tailgate show
- 58:47Speaker 1: and loves I'll talk to you and like like two
- 58:49Speaker 1: minutes begins. That's the next program coming up. The Jags
- 58:55Speaker 1: and the Broncos coming up. Final thought, here, fellows, real quick,
- 58:59Speaker 1: Jaguars get it done this Sunday, will Yon. They can
- 59:03Speaker 1: run the ball and be balanced yes, I believe they
- 59:05Speaker 1: could get it there. And I wrote this for for
- 59:08Speaker 1: Johnny O's article. I think the team that ends up
- 59:11Speaker 1: getting their first defensive takeaway of the season wins. Huh,
- 59:16Speaker 1: because neither neither team has a defensive takeaway like that.
- 59:19Speaker 1: So I think it's gonna be a close football game,
- 59:22Speaker 1: real close football game. Tough environment, one of the toughest
- 59:26Speaker 1: this is. This is right on par with Kansas City,
- 59:30Speaker 1: and uh, the altitude makes it even tough. I was
- 59:33Speaker 1: about to say you can't breathe. I was questioning my
- 59:36Speaker 1: conditioning doing warm up. Trust me, we're back in a moment.
- 59:40Speaker 1: The Doug Brone Show is right after this. Thanks for
- 59:43Speaker 1: listening to Jaguars Happy Hour the Jaguars Digital Network
