• 0:11
  Speaker 1: Ashley Jaguarris Drive Time starts right now. Good morning, Happy Friday,
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: and welcome to Jack's Drive Time. Brian Sexton, Ashland Sullivan,
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: John Osier and head coach Doug Morrown join us for
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: a little coffee with the coach here to kick off
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: your Friday morning. Happy Friday, Coach, how are you today?
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: Do UM practice indoors a couple of days this week?
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: And I know you've talked a little bit about it,
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: but does that is that a move to get legs back?
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: Is that a move to get different things done? Tell
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: us a little bit about to go in indoors this week? Well,
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: I mean we you know where acclimated obviously to the heat.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: We practiced pretty much the whole UM training camp outside
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: and then you know, in the first couple of weeks
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: we've been outside, but obviously with the heat, indecks you know,
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: being extremely high and being out there, you know, you
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: you don't want to wear your team down before you play,
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: so you know, we were out there for uh, you know,
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: half the practice outside. Have to practice inside, so you know,
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: just a way to keep them from not necessarily their legs,
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: but just overall the just the heat draining them. And
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: I walked down the hallway behind Tavin Brian yesterday coming
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: off and he was dripping it sweat. So obviously going
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: indoors doesn't make it easy. No, no, no, it doesn't
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: make it easier. It's just a little bit cool. I
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: think you get you know, you can get a better
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: practice out of it. And uh, like I said before,
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: if I was worried about the team being acclimated to
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: the heat, then we'd have to be out there a
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: little bit longer. But I'm not, uh worried about that.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: What I wanted to do is just make sure we
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: go get a good practice and and uh, again, it's
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: a lot of work. When you drop you know, eight
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: to twelve pounds of of of weight, you know during
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: the practice, then you gotta come back in and put
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: that on. You know, you're overworking your body to do that.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: And if coming off a hot game on Sunday and
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: doing it just felt like it was the right thing
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: to do. You mentioned this a couple of times in
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: uh speaking, last couple of weeks, and I kind of
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: missed it the first time you talked about it. But
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: playing in home openers wherever they are, Uh, it feels
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: like you think that takes a physical thing. It's a
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: tougher game than a normal game. Yeah, I think well
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: both both. You know, when you're on the road and
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: stuff the opening day and then you know the home openers.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: I don't want to say it's a tougher game, it's
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: just more. Um, it's faster. I mean the players are
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: playing faster. Um. Like I said, the speed of the
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: first game of the year is the same speed that
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: you see in the playoffs. And then you know during
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: the year then that you get into that mode of
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: just playing. I learned that from obviously Herm Edwards and
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: a lot of other people have said that before. So
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: you know, there's a lot of talk about it. Every
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: team goes through it. It's ah, you know, high energy,
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: high emotion, and and and now you kind of you've
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: got to get into that good proper rhythm you know
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: during the week that that that you can get yourself
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: ready to perform on Sunday. Heading into this Sunday, how
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: important is it to win at home in front of
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: these Jaguars fans before going on that huge road strip
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: you're about to go on. Yeah, I mean it's always important,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: you know, you you have an advantage at home. I mean,
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: you know a lot of the plosophy in the league
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: over the years has always been, hey, you know, win
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: all your home games and split your road games and
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: and you'll be okay. But you know, for us, you know,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: our fans that have been outstanding. You know, we've got
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: to give him a good performance. We we fell short
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: last week, and um, you know, like you said, you
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: have to take advantage of these games early that you
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: play at home, and you can't let them slip by.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: You know, during the draft process last spring, people looked
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: at Sam Donald and thought he was a pro ready quarterback.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: Is that what you've seen? You said on Monday that
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: he didn't look like a rookie to you know what,
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: what what specifically do you see from him that gives
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: you that? I think your eyes, I think you know,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: sometimes you see with the young quarterbacks that uh get
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: themselves in trouble early on, is they're looking at the
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: rush or they're worried about the protection um and then
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: when they're moving around, their eyes you know, come off
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: of the downfield throws and you don't see that at
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: all with Sam Donald. You see him, you know, he
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: can go ahead. He has really good mobility within the
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: pocket and even outside the pocket. But when he's moving,
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: his eyes continually stayed down the field, and and that
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: puts extra pressure, you know, saying on the back end
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: to make sure you're covering. And I think you know,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: he showed a lot uh in the first game when
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: he came out there in the first row he threw
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: an interception and and he came back and lit it
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: up the rest of the day. And that that's another
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: test that you would look at. Um. You know, for
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: any player that's young, you know, corner or left tackle, quarterback,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: you know, how well do you come back? And I
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: think you know, Sam Donald's gonna be a good player
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: in this league for a long time and he will
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: continue to get better. And you know, every time we're
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: gonna face him, you know, whether it be the sun
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: there in the future, it will be a challenge. Yeah,
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: your defense never hesitates to say what they think. And
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: and to me it was telling what a guy like
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: to shaw On Gibson, who was very competent. He is
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: talking about what he's seen in that rookie quarterback to
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: that's not just talk. Yeah, absolutely, I mean we have
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: a great deal of respect for it's not just talk.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: I mean you know, he's he's he's the heck of
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: a player and you know, and he gets you know,
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: a lot of talk has been about him, uh during
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: the week, you know, because he's the youngest quarterback and
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: he doesn't look like that, but you know he and
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: he deserves it. But you know, the two running backs
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: and really Way and uh Quincy number one. Um, yeah,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: he's the outstanding player too. So you know, you talk
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: about having a quarterback, but you know, now all of
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: a sudden, you're gonna you're gonna have to stop the run.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden, you know, now you've
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: got a receiver in a quarterback that can get on
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: the same page quickly. So they it's gonna be a challenge.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Class talked this week, he said they might be the
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: two most underrated running backs in the league. In his opinion,
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: he thinks they're really good and they run things that
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: make it tough. What is it about their running game
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: that's so tough beyond what they do well or beyond
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: the two backs. Well, it's for schematically, it's it's multiple,
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: so it's coming out of different formations. So they can
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: go big and and really you know, gap you out.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: And then now you have to be a disciplined defense
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: and both of these running backs, if you're not, and
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: and there's a gap that's missing, they'll find it. And
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: then only can they find that, they can explode through
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: the whole and and score when they get it. They
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: both except they do a great job path walking. They
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: both can catch the ball and and obviously run after
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: a catch and the other things. They can make people
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: miss and they're strong. So um, you know this probably
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: if you look at our games so far today, these
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: are the two best. The combination of these two backs
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: are the best backs that we face so far. And
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: you're coming in on a game where the Titans what
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: over a hundred on you. So when you look at
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: your run defense from last week, what is it that
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: stands out what has to be better this week against
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: these big backs. I think it's the same thame thing,
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: you know, one of the things that helps the defenses.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: When the offense can stay on the field more, you know,
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: we can do a better job a lot of the
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: runs last week and in the Russian came later in
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: the game, and you know, there's some breakdowns and some
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: mis tackles. I think, you know, to be able to
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: stop the run, you've gotta be in your gap. But
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: also then that's that's only part of it. The next
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: part is you've gotta be able to tackle and bring
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: someone down. And you've got to get population, you know,
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: to these players. Obviously they're good players. They can make
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: you miss. So we've got to get population to them
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: and shut down the run game. And and just like
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: everyone else, we're trying to you know, the minute. You
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: can make a team one dimensional in this league, whatever
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: it be either running or passing. Um, you can just
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: make a one dimensional passing they you have a good
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: opportunity to, uh, you know, get those takeaways which we
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: haven't gotten lately. Talking to the wide receivers in the
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: locker room this week, they've all been very accountable for
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: them not playing well last week, and Keelan Cole mentioned
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: how he looks to Keena Macardel for support when the
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: offense doesn't play well. Do you have to say anything
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: to the unit as a whole. I think our teams.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: Our team is um good in a sense that you know,
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: you don't need to uh stand up there and as
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: individuals to take accountability. You know, they meaning that they
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: don't need to stand up and be like a martyr
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: and say, oh, this is my fault. This game's on me.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: It's on all of us. So it starts with me
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: to everyone down, even for um. You know, all the units.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: A unit may play well, and I say a unit
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: like a position group may play well, but they still
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: actually own, you know, part of it. And that's what
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: being on a team, that's what that does. So you
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: know do we do We point things out and correct them,
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: telling what we need to do better. Absolutely, you know
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: that you don't. You don't want to be um at all,
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: you know, because you're trying to improve and you know, hey,
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: this is not acceptable. This is what we have to
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: get done. You know, I'll stand up in them and say,
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: you know, because it starts with me. So I always
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: make sure I say, look, this is what I could
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: have done a better job, this is where I made
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: a mistake, this is where I have to get better.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: You know, we all have to look at it that way.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: So I kind of said an example of that and
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: set the tone and then you know, our players are
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: are are very much aware of what they need to do,
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: and now they have to go out there and do it.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: That's that's that's a difficult part. And even in the
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: nine six game. After that game, defensive players were saying, hey,
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: we gave a hundred fifty yards rushing and we had
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: opportunity to get him on the field in the second half,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: which is what you're talking about. Even absolutely scoring game
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: the defense and and that's one of the things that
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: that that gives and I don't know about other teams,
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: but gives our team, you know, a chance because what
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: happens is when you hit adversity. Um, you know, all
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: of a sudden, it's very easy to point fingers, it
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: really is. But you know, if you can get everyone
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: collectively in their understanding what their roles are, understanding and
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: that each one of us can do something better to
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: help the cause and we truly care about one another,
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: then we have an opportunity to get it corrected. I
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: think you know when people talk about this function, that
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: this function comes where well, I'm playing, well, I don't
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: really care about what you know, how you're doing, Hey,
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: you gotta pick it up. You know you're not doing well.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: We don't. We don't have that so um, And that's
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: one of the things that you always have to guard
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: for when you hit with adversity because during the season,
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: you know, like I told the players, were you know
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: you we're gonna get hit with adversity early, during the
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: middle of it, and late. And how we how we
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: react to it, how we overcome it is gonna be
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: key for how well we play and how many games
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: we win. The focus has been on Leonard for that
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: for a couple of weeks. How healthy are you guys overall? Yeah,
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: you got a number of guys on the injury report
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: over the course of the week, but a lot of
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: guys practiced yesterday. Do you feel like your team is healthy?
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: I don't, you know. I think as long as you
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: have people on the injury report, and obviously you're not
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: as healthy as you want to be. UM. I don't
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: really look at other teams and try to compare them.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: I know the team we're playing has everyone coming back
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: on defense pretty much much, you know, so they'll be
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: at full strength for the first time. You want to
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: be at full strength. But you know, it's it's part
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: of the game, and I think that's one of the
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: things you have to manage and go through. That's why
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: you have to have depth on your roster. That's why
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: you have to have people step up, so I don't
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: you don't really sit there and go, oh, what is me?
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: Because really, no one gives a crap about you in
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: the NFL, you know, I mean that's the truth. You know,
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: no one's gonna feel sorry for you, and and it
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: is what it is, and you just move on. So
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: I think you just become used to it. Off the field.
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: NFL Films released a video piece about how Dunro makes
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: the perfect bologna sandwich yesterday. Is it weird that just
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: one comment after a game turn into this huge Jacksonville thing?
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: Like I said before, I was on in New York
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: with a buddy of mine, Mike k you know that
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: we're talking about it, and I told him, I said,
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: you know, the way people talk about this, I'm starting
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: to realize that I've been bullied most of my life,
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: you know, free and Bologne, and uh, you know, I
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: don't I don't understand it, and and you know everyone
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: gets on me. You know, it's not even that I
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: bring it up, or it's just people ask what happened
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: one day? Do you do after a game? And that's
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: that's that's what I like to do, and that's that's
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: what I like to eat. Obviously it's not the picture
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: of perfect me. I'm not the picture perfect health guy.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: So I mean, but I like it, you know, And
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: I don't know why people stereotype. You know, I'm learning
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: so much about you know, how your stereotyped, how you bullied,
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: everything that goes on. But um, it's just it's just crazy.
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: And like I said, my focus is you know, earning
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: the right to eat that Blowe sandwich, I winning a
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: game on Sunday. It's the little things in life. And
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: we're at the end of September, so I assume your
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: body clock is postseason baseball too, right, Yeah, we're getting ready,
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: ready home field, home field, wild card, um try to
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: figure out which one of these three guys are gonna pitch? Um. So,
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: And it's really the only thing you allow yourself and
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: this season, right, I mean, it's the only it's the
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: only I would say it's the only. It's the only sport.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: I'm a truth. I'm a fan of like I'm a
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: true fan, Like I'll yell at the TV. You know,
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: you'll let the manager, you know, you'll let the players
• 11:59

• 12:02
  Speaker 1: I try to catch myself. I go, that's what people
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: probably do to me, a whole probably say a whole
• 12:06

  Speaker 1: big day that day. It's little things, right, I've been
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: doing this for twenty five years and still the simple things,
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: kind of like the coach with his bologna sandwich, the
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: little things like the lines going on the field. You know,
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: gay close. Well, yeah, it's okay, it's game bag and
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: I and it's Friday, now night. It's high school football night,
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: which I love. I'm gonna watch my son this evening.
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: I know he's gonna go watch his son. Um My
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: alma mater back in Kansas City has a really big
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: rivalry gamblet be following that on my phone. I love
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: football absolutely and kidding aside for being the third game,
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: it looks fantastic and they had a concert out there,
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: remember right but three the season started, so they re
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: sodded part of that. The crew here does an excellent
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: job and getting it ready. It's just, you know, to quick,
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: I have to say this to Um. I love football
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: and I enjoy it. But when he talks about yelling
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: at the TV, I yell when Kansas basketball is on.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: I mean that's the one thing where I allow myself
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: to just lose my mind and not care what I'm saying,
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: and your gen just look at me like, oh, calm down,
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: big guy. Um, is there one for you? Uh? With
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: team sports not anymore so much. I mean when uh,
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: when Roger Feders playing tennis, we're big fed fans, and uh,
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: you know it's there's a little bit of that in
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: terms of the you know nerves. Uh when he plays
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: for a long time as a big Seattle SuperSonics fan
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: but had trouble following them to Clema City in Seattle
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: when we were second third grade. H that's all it takes,
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: so um, And then I became a big fan of
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: seventy nine when they won the title and then the
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: Camp Payton years. I was really into it, but once
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: they left it was hard to get that. You know.
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: That was probably my last yell at the TV team.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: I think we know who you are based on the
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: color of your shirt. You're a big Clemson fan Syracuse.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: Mind you that John is also a Florida Gator alumni
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: and didn't even mention herefor you wouldn't know that covered
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: Florida for two or three years as as a beat guy.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: For me, it becomes tough to cover a team and
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: have a yell at the TV approach once you've covered
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: a team. So that's just guess how I'm on? Do
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: we need to ask? Is there any other thing in
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: your life? Okay? That's it. That's all I need. It's simple,
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: like a lot of Florida fans would speak. How about
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: a quick run through big things? All right? Big thing one? John,
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: Guess what it's Leonard's leg went through drills yesterday. Look healthy.
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: They're changing it up a bit this week. We're going
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: to hear from Leonard today on Friday. I dare say
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: the expectation as he plays this week. Yeah, I expect
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: he'll play. Yeah, I mean it's uh, I'm expecting him
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: not to be on the injury report. And what that
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: means is the way they do the injury report. Now,
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: if you're off of that status report, probable is gone.
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: So you're uh expected to play and it's an issue
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: if you don't. So I expect that to be what
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: the status is, and I think big things On Monday,
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: we'll have Leonard's leg is one sort of Swan song,
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: and you will report on how he did. The truth
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: of the matter is, though, is that he'll be working
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: on this hamstring the rest of the season. Yeah, this
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: won't go away, well uh may it may not be
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: an issue the rest of this season, but but it'll
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: have to be something that will all be conscious of.
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: I know that when they hand the ball to him
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: on Sunday afternoon. People who go to Wonders you get
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: back on and on Monday morning. You know, if you've
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: been around this game, like we have long enough, you
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: want to know, Okay, how do you feel this morning? Right?
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: What did a night of rest do for you? Kind
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: Of like an a c L. When a guy has
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: an a c L, it isn't the day that he practices,
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: You go, well, he looks great, right, he ran all
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: over the field and he cut and he jumped, all right,
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: So what's the knee like on the next day. So
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: we're gonna wonder how do you feel today and on Thursdays?
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: And I get that nobody wants to put the effort
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: into make a new graphic. But t J's ankle is
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: also I think as big of an issue in terms
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: of how they're going to run their offense. They need
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: both of these backs healthy. Then being healthy and not
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: only helps them, it's a huge factor in how they
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: can use Corey Grant. And I'm a broken record. I
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: want to see the offense some of the scheme that
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: they used against Atlanta, where all three of these guys
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: are healthy. It wants I think that is the dynamic
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: offense waiting to happen that we haven't seen really yet.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: Even the Patriots game was more just throwing downfield in
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: those crossing routes. It wasn't what we saw that night.
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: I think that if if they can get those three
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: guys healthy, that will be the dynamic offense that fans
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: are hoping to see. The barometer on the health of
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: the running back group, Will you Brandon Wilds how many
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: weeks he is either active or inactive, or how many
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: weeks he stays on the active roster before they might
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: put them back on the practice squad. Is there a
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: Brandon Wild's graphic coming to or is it um? Okay?
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: All right? But but you get the point, I mean
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: actualect that that Brandon Wilds will be one of five
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: running backs active. Yeah, I think you gotta keep him
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: acting consolutely, have to keep him even if, and that
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: might be the best gauge on how they feel about him,
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: which is why I use the word so, I mean if,
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: but I think even if both yelling in or up,
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: I can't see while it's not being active Sunday Aluly,
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: I mean, I think you see all and then I
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: I think next week is going to be interesting because
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: how good do you feel about either of these guys
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: or did you see something during the week or are
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: you just worried about the hamstring and the probability that
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: says that it could happen again like that? So you've
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: got to have him active. It's ironically one of those
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: seasons where you wouldn't mind an early season, by which
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: usually don't want you would love an early season by right,
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: natigate both of those guys, But you don't get it. Ash, No,
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: life isn't fair, John, No, it's not really just way
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: to hold on. Okay, go ahead. I just I say
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: that at home all the time, and just I was
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: imagining that you were making some people think life should
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: be fair. Ash agreed, But it's fair today. It never
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: will be, all right, big thing too is supposed to win.
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: So we've been talking about the Kansas City game next
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: week and how it's gonna be a tough matchup this week.
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: We're not saying that much. These are games on paper
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: where the Jaguars just look like the better team, and
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: these are games that you are supposed What stands out
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: is a year ago, at this point, we were just
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: kind of starting to think that there were these games
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: for the Dragons based on what we had seen in
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: Houston and I in London. But this team this year
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: has some of these games, John, some of these ones
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: where your point and go. You have to win that game,
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: not because you need to stay in the race or
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: you need to get a leg up on the race,
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: but because you're supposed to win. It goes to show
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: you how far this team has come in the last year.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: It does. And at the same time, if they're supposed
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: to win, and they will win if they stopped the run.
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: If they don't, this is a tricky matchup, which is
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: kind of how the league is. But to your point,
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: you need to win this one, and there are some
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: games within the division that you need to win because
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: the teams don't look strong to get the foundation for
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: what ought to be a ten or eleven twelve win season. Um,
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: I think they do win this game. I think the
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: fact that it's at home as opposed at New York,
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: and I think the fact that you are a more mature,
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: consistent defensive team than you were this time last year
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: speaks to what you're talking about, the growth from one
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: year to the next. They weren't a consistent defensive team
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: early last season. I think they are that consistent even
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: though they've lost one already. The defense has been consistent
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: still their calling card. I think that's why they're supposed
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: to win and will win. So you recall that this
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: Jets game in Week four, ironically last year was the
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: game in which the Jaguars went oh with their run defense,
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: and I think it was when they started saying, okay,
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: how do we fix this when they trade for Marcel Darius,
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: you know they fix it. Um. Two yards. One of
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: them was that broken play and they didn't get touched down.
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: It was also compounded by also not being able to
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: stop the Rams when they needed to stop them, ringing.
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: That game started here, Todd Gurley red hard. So this
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: was that game and followed by the Rams game. And
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: so I'm anxious to see, you know, how they saw
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: because remember coaches said they give a hundred fifty rushing
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: yards last week. Now Mariota had fifty one of those. Uh,
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: and a lot of those were sneaky run At the
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: end of the game. The thirteen yards you know on
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: third down in one were Telvin Smith. By the way,
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: he said that he was held. The league said that
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: he was held. Um. But you're going into a game
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: against these two backs and you know you need to
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: stop them, and they didn't do a good job last week. Well,
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: so much of stopping the run, too, is you stop
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: if the offense had played last week. Your defense is
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: your Your offense is your defense the way it was
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: supposed to play. Then you stopped the run in the
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: first half. I don't know if they ran for in
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: the first half, but it didn't feel like Tennessee controlled
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: the game in your first half. Well, at that point,
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: you get that turnover, you get a touchdown, Tennessee can't
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: run the way they want to run in the second half,
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: and your yards are probably closer to eighty or nineties.
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: So some of statistics in the NFL becomes circumstantial based
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: on what did it didn't happen in a game. You
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: would hope against the Jets that you stopped them early,
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: you get a turnover, you get ahead, and then the
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: Jets don't have the option of running late to your
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: yard's come way down, which I think is what I
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: what's gonna happen. But it's why early run defense in
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: this game, not allowing them to gash the gaps like
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: Doug was talking about, it's so key. Jaguars allowed twenty
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: six rushing yards to the Titans in the in the
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: first half. See actually, if you multiplied like too, it's
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: fifty two, which again they've been up in the second
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: If they've been up in the second half, you're probably
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: talking about sixty yard game. And and we're all talking
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: about how the denimally great this defense is. I took
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: matth I just want to update on something I made
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: the comparison. I said, if Marcel Darius played well and
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: if they got a big performance from Leonard for net
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: this year, that the Jaguars colude rival the Ravens in
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: two thousand and be one of those great defenses, at
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: least in terms of points allowed through three games. The
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: Jaguars have allowed forty four points through three games in
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: two thousand. The Ravens allowed then right on that pace,
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: and against show how good they are. No touchdowns when
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: they've been leading by less than ten. It's it's uh.
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: By the way, they're tied with the Ravens for the
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: fewest points allowed so forth through three games. Yeah, they
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: are playing defense at high level. I get that. I
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: get what they were talking about at the end of
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: the last game, where there are things they could have done,
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: and there were things they could have done in the
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: run game better. But it's it's a high standard to
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: think you're going to stop the run the entire game
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: if the other team continues to try to run. They
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: did enough to take them out of the running game,
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: and the offense didn't help all right, big thing three
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: is homestand, and so we've all three been talking about
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: isn't this week a must win game? And it is
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: because you have to win in front of this home
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: crowd before going to Kansas City, before going to Dallas,
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: before going to London. This is where you need to
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: take advantage of the opportunity given to you and win
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: at home. So the Draggons will play her Sunday, and
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: then over the next forty nine days between now and
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: November eighth, they will have one game at t i
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: A bank Field that is on what is one against
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: the Houston Texans. So the three game homestand has been nice.
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: It's yeah, Saturday nights at home, it's been fantastic. Um. However,
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: now is and the London thing is, if you've looked
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: over the last couple of years that they've gone to London,
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: there's been this big gap in the middle of the
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: season because of the London's If that's what it does
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: is it gives you this long period, this long stretch
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: away from home. You have to take advantge because you're
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: going to campsasit next week where the crowd is going
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: to be decidedly against you. I mean that is a
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: place where you feel it. Uh so take advantage of
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: it while you got it, because you're not gonna have
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: it again, right, absolutely for a long time. And just
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: to win in front of these fans, I mean you
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: saw the fans in have to top of the off
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: the rails last week. To win in front of these fans,
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: give them hope again before going on that huge home
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: stretch or away stretch. Bring him back happy, bring him
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: back against the the Texans in late October, and in
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: in a bigger picture, if if, if you win this, Yeah,
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: the NFL is so weak to week that the reason
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: people joke around about overreaction Monday, you so overreact to
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: what happened the day before. And I get that. Um,
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: if you win this, your three and one a game
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: better than they were. You were going a game better
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: than you were your ago, especially if the defense plays
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: as you would expect it to. So now you've got
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: a month where you've proven to yourself we're as good
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: defensively as we believe we are. Um, if sitting here
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: in August, I was hoping that they would get to
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: the week four, two and two are better because I
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: think the schedule later on in the season plays to
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: it at Giants home against New England home against Tennessee.
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: Really concerned me. I was worried you might lose all three,
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: and not because they were a bad team, but because
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: circumstances dictated. You go to New York on the road.
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: That's dicey. Opening against Eli Man could go either way. Well,
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: the Patriots of the Patriots and then Tennessee matched up.
• 26:56

• 29:15
  Speaker 1: gotta look. You can't just assume anymore. It is on
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: Fox thirty here in Jacksonville, presented by our friends at
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: Baptist Hell, Brian Ashland. John time for he will, he won't,
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: he might our declarative statements on players individuals in Sunday's Gamers,
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: And you're chuckling, so you must want to go first.
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: Sure I can go first. I was laughing at John's
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: getting ready. I chose D. D. Westbrook as my will
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: he will, he won't? He might? He will bounce back.
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: I think this entire wide receiver group bounce back, but
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: him in particular. I think he has a better game
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: this week. He won't be the guy that we're talking
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: about after the game, saying what happened, what happened to
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: the unit, what happened to the player. I don't see
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: us talking about d D. Westbrook in the wide receivers
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: as a whole after the game. He might cut a
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: touchdown past this game we saw against New England. We
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: saw that awesome touchdown Dancy has. We might see it
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: this week. He's the guy that need to get going,
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: Yes he is. He's kind of in between. He's um,
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: You've got Keelan Cole obviously in Dante Moncrief, who were
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: the starters. But this is a guy who can run
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: across the middle of the field. He is a catch
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: then run guy. He isn't necessarily the run to catch.
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: He's the catch to run. You understand that. We saw
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: it on the Patriots. I don't think he's the go
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: route all the way down the field. He's the guy
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: over the middle of the field. He's the guy that
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: was not available last week because of the way that
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: the Titans played defense. I worry so much less about
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: d D than I did late last see. I wasn't
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: sure about d late last saison, even know he was
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: putting up numbers wasn't sure that he was grasping the
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: offense as a rookie. H And you wondered if he
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: would get that remarkable turnaround me in terms of his approach,
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: in terms of his knowledge of the offense, in terms
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: of what they are saying about him. Uh, he hasn't
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: gotten it going statistically, probably the way he wants to
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: have it going. But in watching him and watching the
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: way he's running routes and watching the way he's playing,
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: I have no doubt that. You know, it may not
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: be a completely but you know, it's hard to do
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: this in the NFL. He just goes straight up. But
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: I think he's going to continue going like this where
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be a really good player. And
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: we talk all the time about having a tight end
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: or a deep ball receiver that can take a safety
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: with him down the field, but DDI Westbrook can attract.
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: If he continues to be that playmaker in the middle
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: of the field, he'll open things up because that safety
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: is gonna have to be waiting on him and find
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: him first. He's a pretty tough guy too. I wasn't
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: sure about that last year. He's pretty you know he uh,
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: he likes to play. Yeah, you saw him take some
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: hits against the Patriots where you didn't think he's gonna
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: get up immediately. Well, and I'll also say this because
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: remember there were questions about him and his maturity in
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: the off the field thing. But I forget the off
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: the field has not been an issue. Um. But he
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: stood in the locker room on Sunday after that loss,
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: and he didn't play very well. You were standing right there.
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: His body language said, man, I am miserable right now.
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: I did not play very well. We didn't play very well.
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: And then he stood there and answered question after question.
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: He looked you in the eye. Um. I thought it
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: was a grown up moment for d D. And good
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: for him for for for grasping what's available to him,
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: what the situation is in this offense, in in this
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: locker room, for him to grow as a player. He's
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: turned into a pro at a pretty early age to
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: do it, so as it takes longer. And again, I
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: think that's why he's gonna be h. He's gonna be good,
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: really good, John, You're not. I believe I went with
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: that unique and got way um and been a bit
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: of a story this week. He will play well. And
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: there's been a little bit of a concern among people
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: who I think don't really watch the film, don't talk
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: to people. Is he is he playing okay because he
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: has had a sack. He's playing out of this world. Uh,
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: you don't always get sacks in the NFL when you're
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: playing well, because sex is a statistic, unlike offensive stats,
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: where you can control what you do. Uh, defensive stats.
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: If if the ball is out when you get there,
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: it's not always your fault. Um. So his quote this
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: week sort of made me laugh because he said something
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: along the lines of, you know, it's it's about respect.
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: He's getting doubled a lot more, and he basically said, well,
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: you should double me because I'll you know, if you don't,
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: I'll mess up your day. And I'm not quoting him
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: very well, but that was the gist of it. He
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: knows he's playing well, he knows he's good. It's not arrogance.
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: When Todd wash talks about him and when Doug Brown
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: talks about him, they talk about this guy who is
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: incredibly studious about the game, who breaks down his own
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: flaws and strengths. So when he says he's playing well,
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: he's not bragging about it. He knows he's playing well,
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: he would say if he wasn't. It's the home run effect,
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: it's the slam dunk effect the casual fan. And most
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: people are casual fans, no matter what you might think.
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: They want to see the big play, the home run,
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: the slam dog, the sack, strip, forced fumble, the whole
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: nine yards. They don't see that he is chasing the
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: quarterback and making him get rid of the ball quickly
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: and playing the run better neighbors than absolutely. Uh, he
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: won't worry about all that. He knows. Um. He was
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: thrown out of stat when we talked to him this
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: week that Michael Strahan I think the year's strayhand set
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: the set set the sack record. He didn't have a
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: sack until week four. I asked him how he knew that,
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: and he said, well, I know football, so it wasn't
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: like he'd been told. I figured maybe somebody said, hey,
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: don't worry about strand of this, but he knew. So
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: he's not worried. Some guys press when they're not getting
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: the sacked numbers better because it's gonna be money for
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: I mean, he's smart enough to know that sacks mean dollars,
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: but he's also smart enough to know that he can't
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: control that. He's got to keep playing and then when
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: you turn the film on, he's good. He might break
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: out this week. And I know we've been saying that
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: all the wait, but if they can stop the run early,
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: then you can peel your your ears back and go
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: to the quarterback. I think they do stop the run
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: earlier this week is they're so focused on it. A
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: rookie quarterback, I don't care how good his eyes are downfield,
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: holds the ball a second longer. This might be unique week.
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: It might seem self evident that you have in a
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: locker room a lot of players that care about football. Now,
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: you do have in some locker rooms guys who don't
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: care all that much, um, But in the locker room
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: like that, where there are a lot of guys, he
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: might care more than anyone about in a way that matters.
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: I mean, everybody sort of cares about it because it's
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: their money. But he is and he's smart enough take
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: that caring and know how to work and how to
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: get better. Some people work and well, they're not working
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: on the right thing. He anytime you talk to a coach,
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: they talk about how good he is it. Okay, this
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: is really a flaw that I have. Here's how I
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: really make it better. You can work and work on
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: the wrong things. Somebody like to work on what they
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: already do well. He has worked on his weaknesses and
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: has turned into a fantastic player. He's the kind of guy.
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: If you didn't know him, if you wanted to go
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: interview him in the locker room, you'd see him come
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: by with his intensely intense look on his face and
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: think yeah. But if you know him, you understand that
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: he will say, oh yeah, sure, absolutely. He likes to
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: explain who he is and what he's about. I love him.
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: I think he's just one of the best interviews in
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: the locker room and a go to guy for sure. Okay,
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: I'll go with Marcel Darius as my guy this week. Um.
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: He will dominate the interior of the Jets offensive line. Uh.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: If you watched him the last couple of weeks, you
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: saw him win his one on one matchups. He is
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: a true two gap guy. In the Patriots game, in particular,
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: he was throwing guys around, putting them at the legs
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: of Tom Brady and it made him nervous. Uh, he
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: is bound to collapse the pocket this week and create
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: problems for Sam Donald. The rookie quarterback will not be
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: able to set his feet and be comfortable because Marcel
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: Darius will wreck the inside of the Jets offensive line. Uh,
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: he won't. I don't know what he won't do. I
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: don't because he'll I think this week he'll do. He
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: won't do at all what he was not supposed to do, right,
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: I mean, um nothing, Yeah, I got nothing. Only I
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: won't that maybe the first time, and he will. He won't.
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: He might, that has happened, but he might create two
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: or three turnovers that the Jaguars can take back for touchdowns.
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: I think it's gonna come from the middle of this
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: defense this week because Donald's gonna want to step up
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: into the pocket, and I think he's going to establish
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: for the rest of the defensive line the ability because
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: they're not gonna be able to handle him. I think
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: this is the game that Unique gets off, or that
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: Calais does, because there are too many bodies thinking where
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: is ninety nine? He might be the sole focus of
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: that offensive line before the first quarters done well, I'll
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: do your job for you here, he he won't. I
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: got one for you. He won't necessarily be gone next year.
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: I think there has been an assumption because of his contract,
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: because he was acquired in a trade that you know,
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: and what we're talking about here is everybody's looking at
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: guys who got you've got too much money. But I
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: think he's too good, and I think he's too young,
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: he's too good, he's too important. Um. I don't think
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: he's necessarily the guy to go. And I think the
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: more that he's about the run defense before he was
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: here thirty nine yards a game allowed. I don't think
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: he's necessarily the guy to go. I felt that since
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: the offseason. I wondered if he would maintain what he
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: did the last half the last season, because again, sometimes
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: guys who come in new acquired, you're not sure what
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: they are. He is fit in and talking to him,
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: you would think he was drafted here, meaning there's sometimes
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: a different tone to a guy who comes in if
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: they're not draft to do a place. He feels like
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: a Jaguar. I'm getting a sense he's going to be
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: your night teams. I'll tell you we talked about the
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: home run effect, and how people don't see how well
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: unique in Gowquoy is playing when he doesn't have the
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: sack and the explosive play. They rarely people rarely pay
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: attention to the trench in the very middle of the
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: line where he lives, and he is owning it. He
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: is playing at such a high level, and yet most
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: people don't watch the position, so they can't tell um
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: watch him this Sunday. Watch how he uses his hands
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: and how his first step generally is lifting someone up
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: and carrying them backwards. He has been sensational if you
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: didn't mean to do anything else for your great personality too.
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: We interviewed him for Jaguars f a Q this week
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: and we went up to me. He was like, Marcel,
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: you want to play a Jaguars triviuta game about your teammates?
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: Like I don't know. And then he comes back two
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: minutes later with all his bling on and goes, okay,
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: I'm ready now. He's a great guy. He is a
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: fun guy in that locker room. Okay, ah, yes, pick
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: one game, then pick it. Pick one game and pick it.
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: I have the Kansas City Cheats Chiefs versus the Denver Broncos,
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: the Broncos highest passer rating aloud through three weeks. Now
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: they have Patrick Mahomes coming in elite quarterback. I gotta
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: go Chiefs here just because of him. Um. You know
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: everyone is leaning towards Kansas City these days because Mahomes
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: is such an explosive guy. But the Chiefs defense is
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: dead last in the NFL, and Case Keenom has played well,
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: played well on the road last week, even though the
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: Broncos didn't come away with the win. I'm gonna go
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: with Denver at home, just because I know Kansas City
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: well and I know that Denver is never a place
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: they've played well. Going back through the ages, They've struggled
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: to perform in Denver. And I'm gonna say this week, Denver,
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: with its defense and with Case Keenom, gets the win
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: over Kansas City and brings him down to earth. John.
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: I agree with Brian um and that, and that they
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: haven't played a great defense yet. They played the Chargers
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: without both Obviously botha will be back until in November, right,
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: but not quite the same defense. The next two weeks
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: are huge tests for the Chiefs. I agree with Brian.
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: I think the Chiefs lose this and I think they
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: lose next week. Sell C H I E F S.
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: But that made me just maybe just is there anything
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: else he can do to help you do your job? Okay,
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: I assume that was Matt Ashlands fells things wrong quite often.
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: I think this is a big one. Dolphins Patriots. Um,
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: it has become vogue to say the Patriots are done. Uh.
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: Anyone who says that has not followed their recent history. Well,
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: but this is a different down. May I got what
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: people are saying. They've lost two in a row by
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: double digits. You know, Brady's only once ever lost three
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: consecutive games once into so this is a big litmus
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: test for him. It's a big chance for the Dolphins
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: to prove there for real. It just feels like one
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: where you know, obviously it's a huge sway. If the
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: Patriots lose this, they might be done in terms of
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: the division because it's it's hard four and o versus
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: one and three. It's a three game stretch. I can't
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: you know, I spell, but you did that. I do numbers, um,
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: but I just can't see the Patriots losing. It's at home.
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: I think they win. I think they win big. I'll
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: go with the Patriots as well, and not because I look.
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: I think that if the Titans did anything last week here,
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: they exposed the Patriots. They showed us that the Patriots
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: front seven is not very good. Uh. And the Patriots
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: lost Rex Birkhead. They've already lost Jeremy Hill, so now
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: they're leaning on Sony Michelle to be able to run
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: the ball. They don't look like they're set up for
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: a deep run this year. However, this quarterback in the division,
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: his record is off the chart. Um, I'll go with
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: the Patriots at home to break the losing streak. It
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: would be huge for the Dolphins to win, you know
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: how they don't like national media attention. If they were
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: to beat the Patriots would be so big for that organization.
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: But I just can't see the Patriots losing this one.
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: I wonder if Darius Rutger will be as good on
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: stage here at Daily's Place on Sunday night if the
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: Patriots pound the Dolphins. You know, the Dolphins make him cry.
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: Dolphins has the first clue. But I like Darius Rucker.
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: You know what, do you know his previous life before
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: he went Western? Right? But you don't know that song.
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: I only know I only want to be with you.
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: That one that's the song in that there is a
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: line that says the Dolphins man try. Nobody understood what
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: it was. He later explained it as the Miami Dolphins
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: made him. Crist's a huge Dolphins fan. He is a
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: Dolphins fan. He's a big Dolphins fan. You learned something
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: new every day, maybe two things. Maybe I'll go with
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: Baltimore Pittsburgh. This has become in the twenty one years
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: that the Ravens have been in Baltimore, this has become
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: a must watch game, even in a year in which
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: the Steelers don't look to be as powerful. And by
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: the way, the Ravens have a pretty good record at
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: Hines Field. They have played well on the road. Right,
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: this is a big litmus test game for you better
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: it was they are? What are? They won one and one?
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: They're playing without living in bell That circus still continues
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: to brew because this week they talked in Pittsburgh about
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: all right, if you've got a trade proposition for it
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: for us, you know we're listening to this um. The
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: Ravens looked horrible last year. Joe Flacco did not did
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: not impress anyone, and yet He's played pretty solid this year.
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: Their defense is playing well. I'm gonna go with the
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: Ravens on the road to keep Pittsburgh reeling. Go ahead,
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the Ravens as well. I think
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: Pittsburgh's in trouble. I don't think they look like the
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: Steelers were used to seeing well. Their defense certainly, and
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: I think the Ravens could have done. Pittsburgh wins this
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: only because it's just a game. They win. Um, They're
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: not as bad as their start indicates. I think they
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: got stunned a little bit by Kansas City. Uh. Cleveland's
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: better than people expected. I don't think that game is
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: is a humiliation to tie the Browns uh. And and
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: they got back on track with Tampa bayanning they win
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: this A that'll do it for pick one, then pick
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: it plus. He will, he won't, he might. When we return,
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: Mike Dempsey will be with us. Love a little fantasy story,
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: and one of these two people is not going to
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: be as hockey as she was last week. Old come

• 46:23
  Speaker 1: the week on a high Notes Fantasy Football, Ryan Ashland,
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: John Mike Dempsey fantasy Guru. You hear him on tinten.
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: You hear him on serious satellite right to his guru,
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: right term you like, you go with that fantasy So
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: I probably wouldn't go by that, but they do go
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: by that. Well, how would be a generic term? That's fine.
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: They call him fantasy boy. Now they want you just
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: made that up? Goodnight, everybody. I'm glad you're here. Uh,
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: hit us with your he will he won't, he Mike
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: before we get into the alright, we go Austin Seferian
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: Jenkins and I'll go. He will be key as a
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: two way performer, particularly with Wonder Fournett hopefully coming back
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: this week. I think as a blocker in the running game,
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: and I think he has a chance to be, you know,
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: maybe a fifty sixty yard reception guy going up against
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: his former team. Not that it's a big revenge game
• 47:12
  Speaker 1: or anything for him, but I think he'll be a
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: key performer. He won't be seen as much of a
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: drop off I think this year compared to Marcedes Lewis
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: in the blocking department. I think that's one thing everybody's
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: noted since he's been here. He's been really exceptional in
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: that area. And uh, he might lead this team in
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: receiving touchdowns this year. You know, he should have to
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: at this point had the one taken off the board
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: with the Norwell hands of the face penalty. So I
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: think he's got a chance. You know, I don't think
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: that number is gonna be in double digit. So I
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: think he's got a chance, you know, for six seven
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: something in that range. Al Right, He's right because I
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: think he gets better when Forte gets back to its
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: little affirmation this morning from Well I like you after
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: Fantasy Boy, He's got to make it up. Uh. Speaking
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: of Fantasy Boy, John was fan see Boy of the
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: Week last week ninety three points. That's a high score
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: of the season so far. Ashlyn had about a third
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: of her total from the last each of the last
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: two weeks thirty one. On the low end, Brian, you're
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: gonna have the first pick today. You've got two two overall.
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: We're going by the overall points. So John's moved into
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: third place with two oh eight. Here comes Ashland has
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: fallen back a spot to two fifteen. And Uh, I'm
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: steady Eddie seventy five points last week, I'm at two
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: forty six. I'll have the last pick that leaves Brian,
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: who I love the fact that you've got your own
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: cheat sheet all written out and ready to go. Well,
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: you see, I wasn't gonna go with any of the
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: big guys this week. I've been trying to kind of
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: just stay in the game, save those um so I'm
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: gonna go with case Keenum against Kansas City's thirty second
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: ranked defense. I don't think that's a bad selection at all.
• 48:50
  Speaker 1: All right, John ninety three points last week? What are
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: you doing for a follow up here? I think I've
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: taken him yet. I'm going Trey Burton versus the buccaneer.
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: Trey burt a tight end versus the Bucks, and they
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: are awful against everybody defensively. Right now, Ashland, You're up next,
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes, Patrick Mahomes, I'm not I'm saving Mahomes, not
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: that I have a chance to take him now that
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: he's off the board. Let's see here, I'm gonna go
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: with Melvin Gordon versus San Francisco is my running back.
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: And then I'm gonna go with Antonio Brown at wide receiver.
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: Go a little big this week, right off the bat,
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: and I think that game is a bit of a
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: shoot at between Pittsburgh and Baltimore. Ashland back to you
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: with one or two, just with one's picking on the
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: end for so long she thinks she gets to every
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: single time. But mahomes at Barkley for you. So far, John,
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: you've got Trey Burton. I'm going uh, Tom Brady, Tom Brady, Okay,
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: he bounces back and uh versus the Dolphins. Maybe with
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: Josh Gordon in the lineup, Brian, you get back to
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: picks here. I'm going to go with Michael Thomas for
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: New Orleans in New York and Tevin Coleman for Atlanta
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: in Cincinnati. Get him in while you can. Right with
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: the Divisa Freeman looking like him is another week, I agree, John,
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: Nita running back or a wide receiver for you. I
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: don't think i've taken Carlos Hide yet. Okay, I don't
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: think you have either, And you have now Ashland wide
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: receiver or a tight end. I'm gonna go Jarvis Landry.
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: I think I've taken him yet. Landry looked like Mayfield
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: wanted to target him heavily last week. All right, so
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: I need a quarterback and a tight end here. I
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: might as well just go all in. I'll go Travis
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: Kelsey for the Chiefs and I'm gonna go with I'm
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: gonna go with Matt Ryan to stay hot at home,
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: I think since he has a pretty good defense, but
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: they're throwing the ball so well, so I'll roll with him.
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: So Ashland back to you for a tight end. Pick
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: just one, just one tight end. I was gonna pick two.
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna go generation Benjamin Watson. Watson. That's a nice
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: played this week, too, Very nice. John. Need your wide receiver,
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: do you, Mike? I thought there were a lot of
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: good options to wider sier this week. That's why I
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: saved it to last. Did you? Very strategic? I'm torn,
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: but I'm going ay, Rob Okay, that's a great pick
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: I think against Tampa uh and tight end, Brian, I'll
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: go with O. J. Howard for the Bucks in Chicago.
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: I don't think that Uh. The quarterback is gonna have
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: a lot of time to stand in the pocket and throw,
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: and Howard it's going to be a better option than
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: the deep balld too. Sean Jackson, all right, Bryan Sexton,
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: as Case, Keenum, Tevin Coleman, Michael Thomas, and O. J. Howard.
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: John's got Tom Brady, Carlos Hide, Allen Robinson and Trey
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: Burton loading up on the bears there Ashton with Patrick
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: Mahomes trying to keep the hot street going, say Kwan Barkley,
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: Jarvis Landry and Benjamin Watson. I have Matt Ryan, Melvin Gordon,
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: Antonio Brown and Travis Kelsey. Is there any question he's
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: just gonna blow us out of the water this year?
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: I don't know. It's a funny thing. We're doing this
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: on The Pretty Show for more years now. Have won
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: one of them. So the spread here in points, if
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: I'm looking right, is uh forty four points at the moment? Okay,
• 52:08
  Speaker 1: at the moment? Is that is that a standard? I mean,
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: does that look like it's normally how it is? Or
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: John beat Ashland by sixty two this week? Right? So
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: I mean my point being you can make it. You
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: have to mention it. This early in the season, I'm
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: asking if I could get back into it, let's talk
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: about how many points is absolutely let's break that down.
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: Do you know? Do you know that was karma for
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: you last week? Be I know, alight? It was nice
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: to be ahead. It's all over. It's basically this week's one.
