Transcript
- 0:05Speaker 1: This is the Jaguars Broadcast Weekend review podcasts presented by EverBank.
- 0:09Speaker 1: I'm JV. Shadwick with the best of the week from
- 0:11Speaker 1: Jags Radio, Jaguars dot Com, and Jaguars YouTube. The Jaguars
- 0:16Speaker 1: hosts the Baltimore Ravens in week fifteen on Sunday Night Football.
- 0:20Speaker 1: But first the word of the week communication. It started
- 0:24Speaker 1: with a review of the week fourteen lost to the
- 0:25Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns with Pete Prisco, Tony Biselli, and Jeff Logoman
- 0:29Speaker 1: on Jaguars Happy Hour Radio Monday, recorded live at Mister
- 0:33Speaker 1: Chubby's Wings in Panavidra Beach.
- 0:35Speaker 2: Well, let's be real. You got to give the quarterback
- 0:37Speaker 2: credit for playing, but he was not very good at moments.
- 0:42Speaker 2: But I think there were other issues at play, including
- 0:45Speaker 2: you know, wide receiver running the wrong route, which Calvin
- 0:49Speaker 2: Ridley clearly did. It was miscommunication there. I think that,
- 0:53Speaker 2: you know, defensively, they can't get to the quarterback. I mean,
- 0:56Speaker 2: if Josh Allen doesn't get there, nobody's getting there. Then
- 0:59Speaker 2: that's two weeks in a row. You made Jake Browning
- 1:02Speaker 2: and Joe Flacco two backups, one almost years old, shred
- 1:07Speaker 2: you throwing the football there were way too many busts
- 1:10Speaker 2: and I tried to go through and you guys might
- 1:12Speaker 2: be able to watch the tape on the way home
- 1:14Speaker 2: today from Kansas City. The busts in the secondary, I
- 1:18Speaker 2: attribute number one to Rayshawn Jenkins, number two to a Luacan,
- 1:24Speaker 2: and number three I was trying to get an idea
- 1:27Speaker 2: who that was. It was either Darius Williams or Rashon Jenkins.
- 1:30Speaker 2: I couldn't quite figure that one out. But my gosh,
- 1:33Speaker 2: you talk about guys running wide open. That can't happen,
- 1:37Speaker 2: and so you combine it all together and it was
- 1:40Speaker 2: not a very good day for the Jacksonville Jaguars in Cleveland.
- 1:44Speaker 3: So I'll let Jeff be because we talked about those
- 1:47Speaker 3: busts on defense, and I agree with you. The worst
- 1:51Speaker 3: part of that game for me is really you beat
- 1:55Speaker 3: yourself at the end of the day. Now, there's certain
- 1:57Speaker 3: things that give Cleveland credit. They are more fizzle at
- 2:00Speaker 3: the line of scrimmagon we were. They did, you know,
- 2:03Speaker 3: some good things, but you take away three bus on defense,
- 2:07Speaker 3: that's a completely different game. And all that, Jeff, because
- 2:10Speaker 3: we talked about who's who we think, I mean, we're
- 2:13Speaker 3: making some assumptions based on what we know about the
- 2:15Speaker 3: defense and how they play, so all that, Jeff kind
- 2:18Speaker 3: of go through each of those and kind of what
- 2:20Speaker 3: he saw on tape.
- 2:21Speaker 4: All right, So the first one Pete, which was a
- 2:24Speaker 4: third and one, and essentially the Browns are in a
- 2:27Speaker 4: goal line personnel grouping. The Jaguars match with a goal
- 2:31Speaker 4: line defensive grouping, and they're bringing pressure off the outside edges.
- 2:35Speaker 4: And when you do that, a lot of times you
- 2:38Speaker 4: ask a defensive end or a linebacker to play man
- 2:42Speaker 4: on a tight end. And it looked like from watching
- 2:46Speaker 4: it that Trayvon was in man coverage on Nadjoku and in.
- 2:50Speaker 1: Order to do that.
- 2:51Speaker 4: A lot of people say, well, how can you ask
- 2:53Speaker 4: a guy like Trayvon to do that? Well, you beat
- 2:55Speaker 4: him up at the line of scrimmage to where he
- 2:57Speaker 4: can't release, and you expect him to be able to
- 2:59Speaker 4: run with the Joku because Joku was not a guy
- 3:02Speaker 4: that has blazing speed. I think it was on Trayvon
- 3:06Speaker 4: with that one. The second one to Najoku, I think
- 3:10Speaker 4: it was Foyer got too aggressive on a run read
- 3:13Speaker 4: and then got caught and then he couldn't end up
- 3:16Speaker 4: backing out and covering ground and Devin Lloyd never even moved.
- 3:19Speaker 4: He didn't buy the run fake. He was pointing in
- 3:22Speaker 4: the direction of where the tight end was going, and
- 3:25Speaker 4: Foyer was just so fast going downhill. And now the
- 3:29Speaker 4: last one, which was the completion to the bell guy.
- 3:33Speaker 5: Yet Bell Bell.
- 3:35Speaker 4: Okay, when when they started out the wide receiver, one
- 3:40Speaker 4: of the wide receivers was out wide, and you're you're
- 3:42Speaker 4: in man coverage, and when the motion comes in, you're
- 3:46Speaker 4: essentially playing an in and out, so you're playing man,
- 3:48Speaker 4: but you're saying, Okay, if one guy goes in, I
- 3:51Speaker 4: got him, another guy stays at the outside, I got him.
- 3:54Speaker 4: A little confusion there between Darius and ray Sewan because
- 3:56Speaker 4: they both went to cover the same guy. And then
- 3:58Speaker 4: when Darius realized that they both were going to the
- 4:01Speaker 4: same guy and that he, in my opinion, he was
- 4:04Speaker 4: supposed to be on the outside guy and he realized
- 4:06Speaker 4: that he plants his foot, slips, goes down to the ground,
- 4:09Speaker 4: and by then it's too late, so that one is
- 4:12Speaker 4: just miss miscommunication.
- 4:14Speaker 2: But the bottom line, right, Jack, you can play that
- 4:18Speaker 2: two different ways. You either go in and out or
- 4:20Speaker 2: you just play it straight and and let the in
- 4:22Speaker 2: guy go to Jenkins and and he stays with the
- 4:24Speaker 2: outside guy. I mean that you could do that too, But.
- 4:27Speaker 4: You can and say okay, we're staying. Yeah, it's you know,
- 4:31Speaker 4: you can play cat coverage with just say I got
- 4:33Speaker 4: that cat. It doesn't matter what they do, right, Okay,
- 4:35Speaker 4: But then you can also play okay, I got the
- 4:37Speaker 4: guy that goes in, you got the guy that goes.
- 4:39Speaker 2: Out Banjo, right and.
- 4:43Speaker 3: Yeah, but Pete to your point though, I mean, you
- 4:46Speaker 3: look at this game and I've said I said it
- 4:51Speaker 3: since the game yesterday. The Jaguars beat themselves with misdessignments,
- 4:56Speaker 3: blown coverages, which is miss assignments, turnovers, and stupid penalties.
- 5:01Speaker 3: It wasn't like they were you know, the big fear
- 5:04Speaker 3: going the game is is Miles Garrett in the you know,
- 5:06Speaker 3: just gonna take over the game?
- 5:07Speaker 1: Block him?
- 5:08Speaker 3: Can they block them? It's gonna be just a complete
- 5:10Speaker 3: mess because of the injuries offensive line, well, for the
- 5:13Speaker 3: most part, it was not, and they Trevor had time
- 5:17Speaker 3: to operate. Now, they still can't run the ball, and
- 5:19Speaker 3: we talked about that already. I mean it's like they
- 5:21Speaker 3: can't run between the tackles. They physically can't do it.
- 5:24Speaker 3: But as far as overall, if you don't have the
- 5:26Speaker 3: missed assignments, and you know, including blown coverages, a lot
- 5:30Speaker 3: of those misassignments led to turnovers or touchdowns. That's a
- 5:33Speaker 3: completely different game.
- 5:35Speaker 1: Jaguars Happy Our Monday airs four to six pm on
- 5:38Speaker 1: tenjen XLAM and Jaguars dot Com. Now to the Huddle
- 5:42Speaker 1: Up Podcast from Wednesday afternoon. Bucky Brooks, John Oser and
- 5:45Speaker 1: I going through some of the communication issues for the Jags.
- 5:49Speaker 1: Let's hear from the head coach today, Doug Peterson discussing
- 5:53Speaker 1: some of the communication issues. Really both sides of the
- 5:56Speaker 1: ball had a little of that. Doug Peterson though on
- 5:59Speaker 1: the focus, especially on defense.
- 6:01Speaker 6: You know, those things just just can't they can't happen, obviously,
- 6:04Speaker 6: and it really just does does come down to those
- 6:07Speaker 6: guys just talking right and just having conversation on the
- 6:10Speaker 6: field and just staying locked into the game plan right
- 6:18Speaker 6: and just one play at a time mentality, and they
- 6:23Speaker 6: don't have to do anything other than that. Just just
- 6:25Speaker 6: trust that, you know, and trust their instincts and how
- 6:28Speaker 6: they've been coached this week to execute that game plan
- 6:32Speaker 6: and they'll be fine.
- 6:34Speaker 1: That's the head coach earlier today.
- 6:35Speaker 5: John, I have a question for the ex player all right,
- 6:38Speaker 5: because I you know, this has been an interesting day
- 6:42Speaker 5: to me because both Trevor and Doug talked so much
- 6:44Speaker 5: about communication players in the locker room communication. Doug was
- 6:48Speaker 5: talking about focus and he was choosing his words very carefully,
- 6:50Speaker 5: trying to get it across what he meant by it.
- 6:53Speaker 5: So I've never played at a high level Guess what,
- 6:56Speaker 5: I've never played football at high level JP. So you
- 6:58Speaker 5: know how tough is it, Bucky? And you know it
- 7:04Speaker 5: really did seem the other day like communication, glaring mental
- 7:10Speaker 5: breakdowns really cost him that game. You would think that's
- 7:12Speaker 5: past them, but I guess as a head coach, that's
- 7:15Speaker 5: what you're always pushing on, right.
- 7:18Speaker 7: You are always pushing on it, And I'm gonna lean
- 7:22Speaker 7: on you and your experiences with the Indianapolis Coast Sonny
- 7:24Speaker 7: Tony Dungee, like I think you share stories with me,
- 7:27Speaker 7: like after losses or after difficult games. He always thought
- 7:30Speaker 7: that you needed to reduce, eliminate, simplify, make it where
- 7:35Speaker 7: the players can play fast, where they can think freely,
- 7:38Speaker 7: and then you'll get the best performance out of them.
- 7:40Speaker 7: I think we're kind of at that point with the Jaguars, Ultimately,
- 7:44Speaker 7: what coaches like to do is they like to at
- 7:46Speaker 7: the beginning of the season think, hey, these are all
- 7:48Speaker 7: the things that we're going to be able to do.
- 7:50Speaker 7: This group is so good to dynamic. We got this,
- 7:52Speaker 7: so we're gonna do X, Y and Z. But the
- 7:55Speaker 7: great coaches are able to look at their team and
- 7:57Speaker 7: evaluate where they are and say, hey, guys, here's where
- 7:59Speaker 7: we are. This is the kind of team that we have.
- 8:02Speaker 7: This is what we need to do to maximize the
- 8:04Speaker 7: talents of the team. When I look at this team,
- 8:06Speaker 7: and because it's been a theme, this team has a
- 8:10Speaker 7: lot of issues when it comes to the communication and
- 8:13Speaker 7: being able to take like communication and maybe schemes.
- 8:16Speaker 3: And execute it.
- 8:17Speaker 7: So now that you're in the final stretch, right the
- 8:20Speaker 7: final quarter of the season, if that's been a parent
- 8:22Speaker 7: in multiple films, well, now you've got to reduce the
- 8:25Speaker 7: amount of stuff that you're doing. You have to put
- 8:27Speaker 7: the onus on the players to communicate what you're supposed
- 8:30Speaker 7: to do, make sure you know what you're doing, and
- 8:32Speaker 7: then do it. And I think we're at that point
- 8:35Speaker 7: because of the tone that I hear from Doug in
- 8:37Speaker 7: his voice, he's not going to say that outwardly to
- 8:40Speaker 7: the public. But I feel like the frustration has beached
- 8:43Speaker 7: the point where he's like, hey man, here's what we're doing.
- 8:45Speaker 7: We need to eliminate all the fluff. Let's just line
- 8:48Speaker 7: up and play and see if we can win a
- 8:50Speaker 7: game by simply not beating ourselves.
- 8:53Speaker 5: Yeah, that's you know again, we know why it's his show.
- 8:55Speaker 5: That's a good Uh. It makes a lot of sense.
- 8:58Speaker 5: And to simplify it, because really he plays the other
- 9:00Speaker 5: day cost you and it was three defensive breakdowns that
- 9:06Speaker 5: you know, again on papers shouldn't have been hard. They
- 9:09Speaker 5: just got themselves completely out of position where if they'd
- 9:12Speaker 5: even been closer and give themselves a chance to play
- 9:15Speaker 5: another down if you will. JFF said multiple times this week.
- 9:21Speaker 5: The Browns are really good, and they're eight and five
- 9:24Speaker 5: for a reason, you're playing on the road. But the
- 9:27Speaker 5: Jaguars turned it over four times and gifted them three touchdowns.
- 9:33Speaker 5: They're good, but you can't make it that easy on it, buck.
- 9:36Speaker 7: Now, you can't make it that easy on it. And
- 9:37Speaker 7: as much as like everyone would make the focus on
- 9:39Speaker 7: the defense, because the defensive communication flaws, it's easy to
- 9:43Speaker 7: see this show a someone didn't cover David Njoku. He
- 9:46Speaker 7: runs down the scene. We have a fourth down, we
- 9:49Speaker 7: don't get a switch or who's lined up on who,
- 9:52Speaker 7: and so it's an easy completion for Joe Flakwa ends
- 9:55Speaker 7: up being a touchdown and some other things. But I
- 9:58Speaker 7: would tell you offensively been a bunch of miscommunications. I
- 10:02Speaker 7: can't tell you the amount of times that we.
- 10:04Speaker 1: Have broken the huddle.
- 10:06Speaker 7: We look around and we see Trevor Lawrence trying to
- 10:08Speaker 7: tell one of the receivers to get lined up in
- 10:10Speaker 7: a different spot, or two receivers looking at one another,
- 10:13Speaker 7: trying to figure out who's responsible for what route am
- 10:16Speaker 7: I running and all of those things, and it coincides
- 10:20Speaker 7: with a couple of those communication errors resulting in interceptions
- 10:25Speaker 7: because Trevor and the playmaker the pass catcher is not
- 10:27Speaker 7: on the same page. So when Doug talks about the
- 10:30Speaker 7: entire team communicating, that's what it stems from, because there
- 10:35Speaker 7: just been things that should be very, very simple when
- 10:38Speaker 7: it comes to execution, but they're not getting done because
- 10:41Speaker 7: people don't know what they expected to know, and then
- 10:43Speaker 7: they're trying to communicate it at the last minute and
- 10:46Speaker 7: it's not getting done.
- 10:47Speaker 1: It's not getting relayed to all of the people that
- 10:49Speaker 1: need to know the information. And there were a couple
- 10:51Speaker 1: of instances where they maybe got the play in late too.
- 10:55Speaker 1: They had a couple of delay games a clock second,
- 10:57Speaker 1: you're trying to communicate all of a sudden, you either
- 10:59Speaker 1: got a call time out or you get the flag,
- 11:01Speaker 1: and that adds on to it.
- 11:03Speaker 5: Yeah, eight pre snap penalties in the last four game,
- 11:05Speaker 5: I mean in the last two games. And maybe they're
- 11:09Speaker 5: not all attributed to what we're talking about, but it
- 11:11Speaker 5: seems it seems like a symptom.
- 11:14Speaker 1: Huddle up with Bucky Brooks heres Wednesdays at four on

- 12:46Speaker 1: morning on Jags Am with Ky Stevens, Brian Sexton, and
- 12:50Speaker 1: John Oser.
- 12:50Speaker 9: Else from the locker room, Calvin Ridley kind of weigh in.
- 12:53Speaker 9: We've been talking about the issues with the route running
- 12:55Speaker 9: and Trevor was talking about miscommunication as well. And Ridley
- 12:59Speaker 9: kind of broke down what he saw on that play.
- 13:01Speaker 9: On one of the interceptions.
- 13:03Speaker 10: On that type of play, it's a the ball can
- 13:06Speaker 10: go to me, can go to someone else, and it's
- 13:08Speaker 10: a look. You know, I thought I had a certain look,
- 13:11Speaker 10: and I was trying to, you know, get my feet on,
- 13:13Speaker 10: get my get up on the dB and take him
- 13:15Speaker 10: a certain way so we could get another person to
- 13:18Speaker 10: pop open. But it was a different look, and I
- 13:21Speaker 10: didn't get my head around faster, and the ball came
- 13:23Speaker 10: out a.
- 13:24Speaker 5: Little faster than I thought.
- 13:25Speaker 10: But if I woulda I just need to be locked
- 13:28Speaker 10: in in that moment more and just see the the
- 13:30Speaker 10: look better and get my head around faster, and it'd been.
- 13:32Speaker 9: A different type of play according Towardly running the right route,
- 13:36Speaker 9: not the look he thought, miss be misidentified, what the
- 13:40Speaker 9: defense was doing, thought it was going somewhere else. Happens.
- 13:43Speaker 9: If that's something they need to get on the same
- 13:45Speaker 9: page about obviously, to kind of just always be prepared.
- 13:48Speaker 9: Especially I'm sure it's being emphasized this week without Christian
- 13:51Speaker 9: Gkirk out there, because there's not always that guy that's
- 13:53Speaker 9: gonna be the first option. Maybe a lot of the
- 13:55Speaker 9: time you have to be ready at all times.
- 13:57Speaker 11: Well, and another radio conversation I had your sayis with
- 13:59Speaker 11: why Receivers coach chat Hall, and he talked about about
- 14:04Speaker 11: he used the word cohesion. He talked about that unspoken
- 14:07Speaker 11: communication between a quarterback and a wide receiver. And then
- 14:10Speaker 11: I was standing in the locker room yesterday and noticing
- 14:12Speaker 11: that Trevor's locker is here and Calvin's locker is here.
- 14:15Speaker 11: I mean, they have got to since the start of
- 14:17Speaker 11: the season. There's no accident that these two guys are
- 14:20Speaker 11: across from each other. They've been trying to build that
- 14:23Speaker 11: sense of unspoken timing. How long did it take Peyton
- 14:26Speaker 11: Manning and Marvin Harrison to create that? How long did
- 14:29Speaker 11: it take when Reggie Wayne came in to be able
- 14:31Speaker 11: to be that target that Peyton Manning was looking at.
- 14:34Speaker 11: I'm not trying to excuse the mistakes he made. I'm
- 14:37Speaker 11: saying this is part of the process of two guys
- 14:42Speaker 11: coming together.
- 14:42Speaker 5: Yeah, And it's rarely, especially with route running offense in
- 14:45Speaker 5: the NFL these days, it's rarely one thing this guy
- 14:49Speaker 5: did this poorly. It's usually over the course of the game.
- 14:53Speaker 1: More.
- 14:54Speaker 5: You a lot of read routes. You got a lot
- 14:55Speaker 5: of routes that playoff of Okay, that even is doing
- 14:58Speaker 5: this now, the quarterback sees this, the wider series sees this.
- 15:02Speaker 5: I keep going back to, you know, yes, the communication
- 15:06Speaker 5: has been a bit clunky with Calvin at times with Trevor,
- 15:11Speaker 5: but everything was sort of going in a good direction
- 15:14Speaker 5: offensively until Trevor didn't practice last week. So I do
- 15:19Speaker 5: think that's sort of become a forgotten element of there
- 15:23Speaker 5: was really no reps at all with these guys, and
- 15:27Speaker 5: up until he got hurt against Cincinnati the last couple
- 15:30Speaker 5: of games, I felt it was going smooth even without Christian.
- 15:33Speaker 5: Then all of a sudden, guess what, he doesn't practice
- 15:35Speaker 5: and it looks clunky.
- 15:36Speaker 11: Well that's how it goes.
- 15:38Speaker 5: You know, that makes sense to me. I think it'll
- 15:40Speaker 5: be better this week. There's still gonna be some of
- 15:43Speaker 5: that because frankly, Calvin was out two years and this
- 15:46Speaker 5: is still a young offense trying to get these things,
- 15:50Speaker 5: and you're gonna have this in the NFL sometimes.
- 15:51Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 15:51Speaker 11: And you know the other thing Chad Hall said when
- 15:54Speaker 11: we had our conversation after practice today was that the coach,
- 15:57Speaker 11: the head coach had personally challenged all of the coaches
- 16:01Speaker 11: to make fixes right, to look differently at it, And
- 16:04Speaker 11: in fact, Doug said it in his news conference on
- 16:06Speaker 11: both Monday and Wednesday, and that was the first thing
- 16:08Speaker 11: that Chad went to. So it's not just the players
- 16:10Speaker 11: who are trying to communicate, it's the coaches who are
- 16:13Speaker 11: working it as well. They're attacking this problem right, this
- 16:16Speaker 11: issue from last week at every angle.
- 16:19Speaker 5: And Calvin said something that I thought was interesting yesterday too.
- 16:23Speaker 5: It was sort of after one of the questions, he goes,
- 16:25Speaker 5: I just kind of wish the guy had dropped the ball.
- 16:27Speaker 5: He had another chance, And there is an element of that.
- 16:30Speaker 5: We're focused on that one play because the Browns got
- 16:32Speaker 5: an interception off of it. Every team in the league
- 16:35Speaker 5: has miscommunications at times between receivers and quarterbacks. That one
- 16:40Speaker 5: really bit the Jags. So we're talking about it a lot,
- 16:43Speaker 5: and there was some It showed up big time on Sunday.
- 16:48Speaker 5: It really hurt them. It doesn't always hurt you that much.
- 16:51Speaker 5: A lot of teams weren't hurt by it. So I
- 16:53Speaker 5: think this is this week's topic. I don't know that
- 16:56Speaker 5: miscommunication with receivers has been a season long thing that's
- 17:00Speaker 5: defined it, but they got to get it fixed now.
- 17:02Speaker 1: Jags a Monday, Wednesday and Thursday mornings on Jaguars dot
- 17:06Speaker 1: Com and Jaguars YouTube Now. To cap off the week,
- 17:09Speaker 1: the Doug Peterson Show, where the head coach explained some
- 17:12Speaker 1: ways the team was working through some of the miscommunication
- 17:15Speaker 1: that's popped up.
- 17:16Speaker 6: You know, my wife tells me all the time that
- 17:18Speaker 6: I need to be a better communicator, right with her,
- 17:21Speaker 6: and and rightfully so, because if we don't communicate, we're
- 17:24Speaker 6: not on the same page. And so it's the same
- 17:26Speaker 6: thing with a football team. And and you know, the
- 17:28Speaker 6: last couple of weeks, we've missed some opportunities both sides
- 17:31Speaker 6: of the ball, really all three phases, just just by
- 17:34Speaker 6: not opening our mouth. And and we just you know,
- 17:36Speaker 6: we ask our to We ask our guys all the time,
- 17:38Speaker 6: We challenge our guys all the time that you have
- 17:40Speaker 6: to talk, you have to communicate calls, you gotta you know,
- 17:45Speaker 6: you got to verbalize it because if you don't, big
- 17:48Speaker 6: plays are gonna happen for your opponent. And that's what
- 17:51Speaker 6: happened last week up in Cleveland.
- 17:52Speaker 4: Yeah, I think sometimes when you kind of get to
- 17:55Speaker 4: this point in the season, guys can take things for
- 17:57Speaker 4: granted that okay, well he is already gonna know.
- 18:00Speaker 5: Oh.
- 18:00Speaker 4: And sometimes just that eye contact and it doesn't necessarily
- 18:03Speaker 4: have to be that verbal communication. The eye contact sometimes
- 18:06Speaker 4: solves a lot of that.
- 18:07Speaker 6: It does, and I think that comes with teams that
- 18:09Speaker 6: have been together for six, seven, eight years and players
- 18:12Speaker 6: that have been together for such a long time and
- 18:14Speaker 6: they've played in the same scheme together and they can
- 18:17Speaker 6: do that. They can get away with just hey, just
- 18:19Speaker 6: a little verbal you know, heads up not or something
- 18:21Speaker 6: like that, or just make eye contact and they they're
- 18:24Speaker 6: on the same page. But you know, when when you're
- 18:26Speaker 6: only in your second year and you know you're asking
- 18:29Speaker 6: our guys to do that, we need to emphasize it.
- 18:31Speaker 6: When I say we as the coaching staff, we need
- 18:33Speaker 6: to we need to demand it from our players obviously
- 18:35Speaker 6: and get it out of them and making sure that
- 18:38Speaker 6: they're they're talking to one another on the field.
- 18:40Speaker 4: So start with your your offense against this Ravens defense,
- 18:43Speaker 4: number two defense in the National Football League and yards
- 18:46Speaker 4: allowed number two and points allowed. You went from the
- 18:49Speaker 4: number one defense in the league in Cleveland here to
- 18:51Speaker 4: Baltimore number two. What a challenge.
- 18:53Speaker 6: It's a great challenge. And we're excited for the opportunity
- 18:56Speaker 6: number one. You know, it seems like Baltimore and their
- 18:59Speaker 6: history have always had great defenses, right and and they
- 19:02Speaker 6: pride themselves on that. And you know, and I look
- 19:04Speaker 6: back at the Cleveland game and and we did some
- 19:06Speaker 6: really good things in that game. We took it, took
- 19:08Speaker 6: advantage of some opportunities, we missed some opportunities, uh to
- 19:12Speaker 6: score more points, and and and really felt like we
- 19:14Speaker 6: had a chance to win that football game. And and uh,
- 19:17Speaker 6: you know, the turnovers obviously are things that have kind
- 19:19Speaker 6: of plagued us and kept us back a little bit
- 19:21Speaker 6: this season. And and going into this game, you know,
- 19:24Speaker 6: you're playing probably a much better offense number one, and
- 19:28Speaker 6: and you really can't give this team anything, any opportunities,
- 19:30Speaker 6: any extra possession, So you know, works cut out for us.
- 19:34Speaker 6: It's a good defensive front, good front, six seven guys
- 19:37Speaker 6: up there, and they and their secondary, they got some
- 19:40Speaker 6: smart guys that have been around a long time. Even
- 19:42Speaker 6: their defensive coordinator, you know, has been kind of grown
- 19:46Speaker 6: up in the Baltimore organization. I know he left a
- 19:48Speaker 6: year to go to Michigan, but he's back and and uh,
- 19:51Speaker 6: you know, coordinating the defense, So he's seen a lot
- 19:52Speaker 6: of football there as well. And and it's no, there's
- 19:55Speaker 6: no surprise why they're why they're top, you know, one
- 19:57Speaker 6: of the top defenses in the league.
- 19:59Speaker 1: Yeah, quite a minit this week head coach Dug Peterson
- 20:02Speaker 1: with us to the Jaguars offense now and let's get
- 20:06Speaker 1: into this running game for the Jaguars team here and
- 20:11Speaker 1: trying to get Yes, the yard is just there for
- 20:13Speaker 1: Travis et In for the season, but the yards per
- 20:15Speaker 1: rush is down the list a little bit. How do
- 20:17Speaker 1: you improve that down the stretch?
- 20:19Speaker 6: Yeah, it's it's it's it's interesting because I think we're
- 20:22Speaker 6: tenth in the league in attempts, but we're thirty first
- 20:25Speaker 6: or something. As you mentioned in yards per carry. Those
- 20:28Speaker 6: two should align a little bit more, right, If you're
- 20:30Speaker 6: gonna run the ball as much as we have, you
- 20:33Speaker 6: should have better results, right. And so you know, it's
- 20:36Speaker 6: something that we look at as a staff and we've
- 20:38Speaker 6: got to make sure we're putting our best concepts together.
- 20:43Speaker 6: We're repeating the best concepts, right. So there's familiarity with
- 20:46Speaker 6: our offensive line. I know we've had some injury up
- 20:48Speaker 6: front and there hasn't been a lot of consistency, you know,
- 20:51Speaker 6: particularly on the left side, and guys have been in
- 20:53Speaker 6: and out of the lineup and Ezra's new, you know,
- 20:56Speaker 6: and getting him caught up. But for me, it's it's
- 20:58Speaker 6: just a matter of let's make sure we're putting our guys,
- 21:01Speaker 6: you know, in the right positions and helping them be
- 21:03Speaker 6: successful on the football field. And then it's just a mindset.
- 21:07Speaker 6: Running the ball sometimes is not pretty. It's more of
- 21:09Speaker 6: the physical aspect of it. The backs have got to
- 21:13Speaker 6: hit the right holes and things of that nature. But
- 21:14Speaker 6: again it's it's coaches and players working together and really
- 21:19Speaker 6: demanding sort of that physicality that you know. Quite frankly,
- 21:23Speaker 6: these last couple of defenses have given us fits on.
- 21:26Speaker 1: So Doug Peterson Show airs each Thursday at five o'clock
