1:19
Speaker 1: it was still. It was still a lot of fun
1:21
Speaker 1: and it was a great day. Still fans shod organization. Um,
1:26
Speaker 1: it would have been nice to uh kind of submit
1:30
Speaker 1: the great day with the victory, but that's where it goes.
1:32
Speaker 1: It was still, it was still good. Did you really
1:35
Speaker 1: get a key to the city the other day? Yeah,
1:38
Speaker 1: on Thursday? Oh my god, don't give those anybody. You
1:43
Speaker 1: don't have one? Oh, because I am the mayor. I'm
1:46
Speaker 1: the one who should have been giving you the damn kid.
1:48
Speaker 1: Just ask him, he'll tell you I'm the real mayor.
1:54
Speaker 1: How was the weekend? Did? It looked like it was
1:56
Speaker 1: a lot of old players there and they probably hadn't
1:58
Speaker 1: seen in a while. It was a lot of fun,
2:00
Speaker 1: it was, and I thought it was, you know, probably
2:04
Speaker 1: one of our better alumni weekends. And uh, it was funny.
2:09
Speaker 1: Friday night they had top golf part of it rented
2:12
Speaker 1: out for us, so we all got together and hung
2:14
Speaker 1: out and laughed and uh, ate some food and did that. Um, yeah,
2:19
Speaker 1: it was The whole weekend was great. It was a
2:22
Speaker 1: lot of fun to see guys. T Brack came back
2:24
Speaker 1: for the first time of that forever. Wow. Yeah, that
2:28
Speaker 1: was good to see t Brack and uh, it was
2:31
Speaker 1: just fun. I like, you know, those things are fun whenever. Yeah,
2:34
Speaker 1: I mean, I I wish I could be a part
2:36
Speaker 1: of something like that because I haven't seen a lot
2:38
Speaker 1: of those guys in years something. Probably still want to
2:40
Speaker 1: smack me. But other than that, it would be fun
2:42
Speaker 1: to be around. A lot of practice. Didn't talk to
2:47
Speaker 1: me for like five years. I wonder if you would
2:48
Speaker 1: talk to me. What did you say that I didn't
2:52
Speaker 1: say anything. What happened when they got when he got there,
2:56
Speaker 1: they warned him about me, he said, so I said, okay,
3:00
Speaker 1: never wanted to talk to me. How about bad? It's
3:04
Speaker 1: pretty good, smart man, Tony. Was there anybody from those
3:08
Speaker 1: before we get to the game. Was there anybody from
3:10
Speaker 1: those teams that beside him that maybe they're early teams
3:13
Speaker 1: that you hadn't seen in a while that showed up.
3:15
Speaker 1: Um No, I don't think so. I think he was, like,
3:19
Speaker 1: you know, it was a usual cast of characters. I
3:22
Speaker 1: think he was the the one that was good to
3:25
Speaker 1: see and been there for a while. Yeah, that's good.
3:28
Speaker 1: It was fun. It sounds like it was a good weekend.
3:31
Speaker 1: It was. It was cool. Happy Hour Monday. Here's four
3:34
Speaker 1: to six pm on Tintin x l a M, Jaguars
3:37
Speaker 1: dot com, and the Jaguars social media channels Twitter, Facebook,
3:40
Speaker 1: and YouTube. Let's continue with the best sound from press
3:43
Speaker 1: conferences or interviews this week, starting with veteran right guard
3:47
Speaker 1: Brandon Sheriff. On Monday, he reviewed the performance of the
3:50
Speaker 1: offense against the Texas. I thought we did some really
3:53
Speaker 1: good things, like coach coach said, we did some really
3:55
Speaker 1: good things, but uh, you know, there's a lot of
3:58
Speaker 1: things that we could correct. You know, we left lot
4:00
Speaker 1: of yards out there. And credit to the Texans, they
4:02
Speaker 1: had a they did a heck of a job keep
4:03
Speaker 1: keep him out of the end zone. And uh, you know,
4:05
Speaker 1: we just gotta be a little bit more detailed in
4:07
Speaker 1: our plans. So have you've ever been a part of
4:10
Speaker 1: a game where the offense picked up that many yards
4:12
Speaker 1: and scored that few points? Um, I mean I'm sure
4:16
Speaker 1: I have been, Yeah, But I mean, like I said,
4:18
Speaker 1: we left a lot of yards out there. Um, so
4:20
Speaker 1: we just got to execute and be a little bit
4:22
Speaker 1: more detailed than what we do. Do you like the way, Yeah,
4:27
Speaker 1: I mean I thought I thought those guys behind us
4:29
Speaker 1: are doing a heck of a job at you know,
4:31
Speaker 1: whether they're hitting the whole hard, you know, bouncing it
4:34
Speaker 1: when they need to bounce it. But they've done a
4:35
Speaker 1: heck of a job for us, and it's a lot
4:37
Speaker 1: of fun to to watch them, you know, burst up
4:39
Speaker 1: the seam or through a hole and just do their jobs.
4:42
Speaker 1: So they're doing a great job for us. What are
4:44
Speaker 1: your thoughts on some of the young offensive limit. I mean,
4:46
Speaker 1: you've got young guys on both sides of you, Juwan
4:48
Speaker 1: and Luke Fortner. I mean, we asked you on about
4:50
Speaker 1: your leadership in the offensive line room. He kind of
4:52
Speaker 1: lit up. Luke's done the same thing. What has your
4:55
Speaker 1: role been in those guys development. I'm just trying to
4:59
Speaker 1: do what I know. I've said this before, like Trent Williams,
5:01
Speaker 1: Corl Steiger, Sean Morgan Moses, all those guys did for
5:04
Speaker 1: me pretty much. If I had a question, you know,
5:08
Speaker 1: as a rookie coming in, you know you think you're
5:10
Speaker 1: gonna get you know, get not haze, but you know
5:13
Speaker 1: you have little room to talk, you know what I mean.
5:16
Speaker 1: So I just told Luke, you know, if you have
5:17
Speaker 1: a question, ask it. You know what I mean, ask it.
5:19
Speaker 1: Don't be afraid to ask. There's no stupid question because
5:21
Speaker 1: we all have to be on the same page in
5:23
Speaker 1: order for us to collectively do our job for everybody
5:25
Speaker 1: behind us. So, um, I just told I mean, he's
5:28
Speaker 1: he's gonna be a heck of a player and it's
5:30
Speaker 1: fun to watch him continue to grow each game. Is
5:32
Speaker 1: he taking advantage of that and just browing the questions
5:34
Speaker 1: that you left and right? No, I mean he's he's
5:36
Speaker 1: he's a really smart uh football player. Um, he's a lot.
5:40
Speaker 1: I mean he is really smart. So uh Um, he's
5:43
Speaker 1: done a great job and we're just happy that he's
5:45
Speaker 1: he's there for us. Quarterback Trevor Lawrence Wednesday talked through
5:49
Speaker 1: his decision making and working on keeping the offense on
5:52
Speaker 1: the field. I mean, I think that's that's something you're
5:55
Speaker 1: you're always You're never gonna be perfect on that. You know,
5:58
Speaker 1: as a quarterback, you're gonna you're gonna make some mistakes.
6:00
Speaker 1: But it's what we talked about, especially yesterday, and that's
6:03
Speaker 1: kind of my goal just moving forward. And I've always
6:07
Speaker 1: thought about it, but especially now after the last couple
6:09
Speaker 1: of games. Just don't make a bad play worse as
6:12
Speaker 1: far as if if we're not if we didn't get
6:13
Speaker 1: the look we necessarily thought we were gonna have, or
6:16
Speaker 1: the first couple of guys aren't open. You don't make
6:18
Speaker 1: a bad play worse. Throw the ball away, scramble for
6:21
Speaker 1: no gain, a yard or two, whatever it is, and
6:23
Speaker 1: move on to the next play. And you know, that's
6:24
Speaker 1: kind of the lesson to learn. Just you relearn these
6:28
Speaker 1: things all the time playing the sport, because it's it's uh,
6:31
Speaker 1: you know, you think you got something and then you
6:32
Speaker 1: make that that mistake again and you just have to
6:34
Speaker 1: keep going back to um, the little thing. So I
6:36
Speaker 1: think for for me it's just um. Being a being
6:39
Speaker 1: a great player is yes, making all the routine plays,
6:43
Speaker 1: even the great plays, but it's also how do I
6:46
Speaker 1: minimize the bad plays and how do I make a
6:48
Speaker 1: bad play? Maybe I misread something, but it doesn't turn
6:51
Speaker 1: into interception. It's just an incompletion, you know, you throw
6:53
Speaker 1: it away. So stuff like that, UM, I think that's
6:56
Speaker 1: where the great ones that's what they do really well,
6:59
Speaker 1: is they they don't make bad plays worse and they
7:01
Speaker 1: really minimize them. So getting them all what I'm talking
7:09
Speaker 1: how do you bounce that about being like, yeah, I
7:13
Speaker 1: mean there's a there's there's a fine line obviously, because
7:17
Speaker 1: we got a lot of we have a lot of
7:18
Speaker 1: really good players that can help us and um kind
7:21
Speaker 1: of spread the wealth. One it helps everyone, you know,
7:24
Speaker 1: everyone's a part of the game plan. But also it
7:26
Speaker 1: keeps a defense on their heels because you have so
7:27
Speaker 1: many different um weapons in different ways to attack certain
7:30
Speaker 1: parts of defense. So it's it's important for a lot
7:33
Speaker 1: of different reasons. But obviously, you know, Christian Is is
7:36
Speaker 1: a great player and we got to get in the ball.
7:38
Speaker 1: You've kind of seen how productive he can be and
7:40
Speaker 1: how much he helps us when he when he gets
7:41
Speaker 1: a lot of touches, So obviously that's that's important. Any
7:45
Speaker 1: great player you have, you gotta you gotta find a
7:47
Speaker 1: way to get him the ball. So, um, that's definitely
7:50
Speaker 1: just that's an every week thing. And people's he's no secret.
7:52
Speaker 1: You know, people have seen what he can do. So
7:54
Speaker 1: it's not gonna sneak up on anybody. But for us
7:56
Speaker 1: it's just how do we put him in Um really
7:59
Speaker 1: good in sitchuations, to succeed, to be open, to get touches,
8:02
Speaker 1: all that starting Sundy as good as been his plane,
8:07
Speaker 1: try to bring a level experience that position. Yeah, no,
8:11
Speaker 1: he's uh. I mean, I love both those guys. Those
8:14
Speaker 1: are two of my favorite favorite teammates. Honestly, not just
8:17
Speaker 1: saying that because I'm because I'm up here. Those are
8:18
Speaker 1: really are just two of the best, two of the
8:20
Speaker 1: best guys. So Um, obviously I hate that for Bars,
8:23
Speaker 1: hate it for our team. I think he's he was
8:25
Speaker 1: playing great. Um made a lot of strides, He's had
8:28
Speaker 1: a great offseason, and I just thought he was doing
8:30
Speaker 1: a really good job. So I hate that his season
8:32
Speaker 1: got cut short. But I know, I know what Tyler
8:34
Speaker 1: brings to the table. He's a guy it's always ready.
8:36
Speaker 1: I mean, if that's a guy you want on your team,
8:38
Speaker 1: just as far as the type of person is, but
8:40
Speaker 1: just how he prepares himself every week. It's like he's
8:42
Speaker 1: a starter, where that's a center or guard, so any
8:45
Speaker 1: of those three spots in the middle. If something happens
8:47
Speaker 1: like what happened to Ben, you know he's ready to
8:49
Speaker 1: step up. And he's he when he's in there, it's
8:52
Speaker 1: it's really seamless. You know, obviously there are two different players,
8:54
Speaker 1: but he's he's done a great job. So and the
8:56
Speaker 1: same thing had to come in the game, wasn't expecting
8:58
Speaker 1: to really play and had to them in end of
9:01
Speaker 1: I don't know if that was into the first half
9:02
Speaker 1: of the somewhere in the second half exactly when that happened,
9:05
Speaker 1: but he came in and played the rest of the game,
9:07
Speaker 1: played well. Offensive coordinator PRIs Taylor still has high confidence
9:11
Speaker 1: in the quarterback. We can't control what happens outside this building,
9:14
Speaker 1: and so that's never been a part of our concern
9:17
Speaker 1: or worry. Anything we talked about as a unit kind
9:19
Speaker 1: of stays within the walls of the building, particularly own
9:22
Speaker 1: meeting room. As well as an offense, UM and the
9:24
Speaker 1: last two weeks, we haven't played to the standard we've
9:26
Speaker 1: set for ourselves as an offense. That's Trevor as well
9:29
Speaker 1: as a lot of other people, coaches included, were included
9:32
Speaker 1: in that we have not UM. You know, we have
9:34
Speaker 1: not met that that standard that we've set for ourselves,
9:36
Speaker 1: and that's why we've come up short as an offense
9:38
Speaker 1: last two weeks, So we all take responsibility for that. Um.
9:41
Speaker 1: You know, there's there's throws, there's decisions. Trevor once back,
9:44
Speaker 1: just like there's decisions. A lot of guys want back
9:46
Speaker 1: play calls, we want back play designs, we want back suggestions,
9:49
Speaker 1: all that type of stuff. So you know, we're all
9:51
Speaker 1: in this thing together. As a follow up to that,
9:54
Speaker 1: it doesn't seem to have in any way diminished the
9:56
Speaker 1: belief in the locker room, and I'm sure within the
9:59
Speaker 1: walls of the coaching offices in Trevor becoming, you know,
10:04
Speaker 1: living up to the expectation of where he was taking.
10:06
Speaker 1: Absolutely not. You know that it's it's you know, that's
10:08
Speaker 1: two games in the seventeen game season that he he hasn't,
10:11
Speaker 1: like I said, in the offense, has not performed the
10:13
Speaker 1: way we expect to perform. Um. And we're all in
10:16
Speaker 1: it together. So it's not Trevor alone struggled. It's we
10:18
Speaker 1: all struggled as a unit. You know, anytime your defense
10:21
Speaker 1: hold somebody thirteen points and you can't score enough to win,
10:24
Speaker 1: you know you take a lot of responsibility and ownership
10:25
Speaker 1: of that, and that's what everybody's done. That's been a good,
10:27
Speaker 1: good good part about you know, struggling right there is
10:30
Speaker 1: there's everybody's taking accountability for what we did and we're
10:33
Speaker 1: you know, we're working to be better this week. Yesterday
10:37
Speaker 1: Trevor said that he always feels like he's that one
10:40
Speaker 1: step away, on one mistapple away from breaking off a
10:42
Speaker 1: big one. Just what have you seen from his uh
10:45
Speaker 1: progress in the first five weeks. You know, we know
10:47
Speaker 1: his skill set is certainly that way. You know, he's
10:49
Speaker 1: kind of the guy that when you get the ball
10:50
Speaker 1: out in space, everybody kind of stands up for a
10:52
Speaker 1: second to see what's about to happen, because we know
10:54
Speaker 1: he's got that ability. Um, you know, and I think
10:57
Speaker 1: it is it's kind of just one of those things.
10:59
Speaker 1: I think it will happen for them at some point
11:00
Speaker 1: where he really gets that big explosive. Obviously a couple
11:03
Speaker 1: the other day we're able to get on the edge
11:05
Speaker 1: and get the ball out in space. Um, but that's
11:08
Speaker 1: just kind of you see his work every single day
11:10
Speaker 1: prepare him for these opportunities, and then he just keeps
11:13
Speaker 1: performing better and better and that that's as a unit,
11:16
Speaker 1: that's what we want to do as well. Fast start
11:19
Speaker 1: to the season. Christian Kirk's kind of slowed down. How
11:21
Speaker 1: do you get him reinvolved in the offense? Yeah, that
11:24
Speaker 1: that's that was completely on us as a coaching staff.
11:26
Speaker 1: You know, we we gotta be able to target him.
11:27
Speaker 1: He's one of our better guys, uh, clearly. And you know,
11:31
Speaker 1: as the game went, we weren't really able to force
11:33
Speaker 1: them out of cover two. We didn't make them honor
11:35
Speaker 1: one thing well enough. We weren't good enough in the
11:36
Speaker 1: past game, weren't efficient enough in the run game to
11:39
Speaker 1: kind of force them to play something different, so they
11:42
Speaker 1: were able to stay in what they want. We we
11:44
Speaker 1: feel good about the things we had. We just didn't
11:45
Speaker 1: execute him, um to the best of our ability. So
11:48
Speaker 1: there's there's ways to incorporate him that we certainly need
11:51
Speaker 1: to do. He's a guy that needs touch football and
11:53
Speaker 1: have an impact on the game for us. And then
11:55
Speaker 1: on defense coordinator Might cald Well reacted to the Trayvon
11:58
Speaker 1: Walker penalty late in a fourth quarter. I just met
12:01
Speaker 1: him on the field and asked him, like, you know
12:03
Speaker 1: what happened and told him that you know, in that situation,
12:06
Speaker 1: that's unacceptable. He can't do it. And you know he's
12:08
Speaker 1: a competitor, great kid, I think he didn't hear the whistle,
12:13
Speaker 1: and you know he got his hand on the quarterback
12:15
Speaker 1: and you know you can't throw them down. So you know,
12:17
Speaker 1: we'll move on from that. He'll learn from It is
12:20
Speaker 1: a confusing to the guys these days, based on what's
12:23
Speaker 1: happening around the league as to what they can actually
12:26
Speaker 1: do to the quarterback in a given situation. Well you
12:29
Speaker 1: have yeah, well you have the rules. You just have
12:32
Speaker 1: to abide by them and they're not changing. But you
12:35
Speaker 1: just have to understand that in that situation you can't
12:38
Speaker 1: throw them down. You can pull them down horse color
12:41
Speaker 1: in the pocket, but there are certain ways where you
12:44
Speaker 1: have to land on a quarterback or try not to
12:46
Speaker 1: land on the quarterback. And we've gone over that. They
12:49
Speaker 1: understand it, and it's tough for a defensive player, but
12:52
Speaker 1: that's what we gotta do by by the rules. And
12:54
Speaker 1: I know you can't be in a position of criticizing referees,
12:57
Speaker 1: but it does appear you say that as rules, but
13:01
Speaker 1: the rules seem to be open to an interpretation by
13:04
Speaker 1: different referees at different games. Everybody seems to have some
13:08
Speaker 1: guys have their version, other guys have theirs. That's every
13:11
Speaker 1: rule you know, depending on what side you're on, if
13:13
Speaker 1: you're if you're your quarterback, yet you want them to,
13:15
Speaker 1: you know, have as much protecting as possible. If you're
13:18
Speaker 1: going after the quarterback, you want to go get them.
13:19
Speaker 1: So it's interpretation by the referees and it's a tough
13:23
Speaker 1: job that they have to do. But we have to
13:26
Speaker 1: understand what we can do. How we can help our
13:29
Speaker 1: team is just teaching the rules. Let them understand what
13:32
Speaker 1: they can and can't do and go from there. Conversation
13:35
Speaker 1: you have with the guys this week, Oh, you always
13:37
Speaker 1: talk about you always try to learn from other teams
13:40
Speaker 1: and we talk about those situations and other situations that
13:44
Speaker 1: come up. So that's been talked about. But you know,
13:48
Speaker 1: from day one they understand the quarterback is protected in
13:51
Speaker 1: certain ways and they have to understand that. Press conferences

15:07
Speaker 1: of our shows this week, starting with a preview of
15:09
Speaker 1: this week's game on Jack's Drivetime Wednesday. Indianapolis culture reporter
15:13
Speaker 1: Lara Overton joined Ashland Sullivan, John Osier, and Brian Sexton
15:17
Speaker 1: for a preview of Jaguar's Colts Part two. Well, both
15:21
Speaker 1: teams are coming off pretty ugly games, right. You had
15:25
Speaker 1: each team in a bit of a defensive battle, so
15:29
Speaker 1: to speak. Neither really saw the type of offensive production
15:32
Speaker 1: last weekend Week five that they were aiming for. The
15:35
Speaker 1: Colts had that gritty victory on Thursday Night Football in
15:39
Speaker 1: Denver in which it was a field goal fest. Chase McLoughlin,
15:43
Speaker 1: who had just been signed to the Colts roster active
15:46
Speaker 1: roster last week. You've been on the practice squad and
15:48
Speaker 1: you know, back and forth being elevated prior to that,
15:50
Speaker 1: but goes four for four and you had to win
15:52
Speaker 1: that game on the foot of Chase McLoughlin and on
15:55
Speaker 1: another last minute stand by your defense. I mean, right now,
15:59
Speaker 1: step On Gilmore is looking like the Colts m v
16:01
Speaker 1: P at this point to come up with the game
16:03
Speaker 1: clinching plays that he has in both the Cults victories
16:06
Speaker 1: so far. That's one of the things that is difficult
16:09
Speaker 1: about playing so many divisional games so early in this season,
16:14
Speaker 1: like you're seeing for the Colts and for the Jags,
16:17
Speaker 1: looking at the cold schedule it's five out of the
16:19
Speaker 1: first seven against the division. You started this season with
16:22
Speaker 1: back to back division games on the road. That was
16:24
Speaker 1: an ugly game Week two for the Indianapolis Colts down
16:28
Speaker 1: there in Jackson Villain. When I talked to Frank Wright
16:31
Speaker 1: this week, he said, I asked him, what do you
16:34
Speaker 1: see as being things you can draw from in that
16:36
Speaker 1: first meeting, But then also how are each team? How
16:39
Speaker 1: is each team a little bit different than what you saw?
16:41
Speaker 1: And he said, both teams are better than they were
16:44
Speaker 1: in Week two, because you know, with with both situations.
16:48
Speaker 1: For the Jags, you have a new head coach, you
16:50
Speaker 1: have a lot of new pieces there, and for the Colts,
16:53
Speaker 1: an entirely new defense, a lot of new pieces with
16:55
Speaker 1: the new quarterback who's getting used to a new offensive line.
16:58
Speaker 1: You had new additions to the defensive with that new
17:00
Speaker 1: defensive scheme under dust Bradley. So both things were still
17:03
Speaker 1: trying to figure things out. And I think for the Cults,
17:05
Speaker 1: they're still trying to figure out a lot of things
17:08
Speaker 1: offensively at this point, have yet to find the stride,
17:12
Speaker 1: the continuity, the production that you were hoping to see
17:15
Speaker 1: thus far. When you have Jonathan Taylor and you have
17:18
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan and the pieces that they do surrounding them.
17:21
Speaker 1: So I think that each team is on a mission
17:24
Speaker 1: to establish themselves, establish themselves, and find their identity as
17:28
Speaker 1: we get into the second quarter of the season. The
17:31
Speaker 1: Colts were able to have a bit of that miny
17:33
Speaker 1: bye week coming off a win in Denver. So it
17:37
Speaker 1: does seem like that this is a team that is
17:39
Speaker 1: recharged and knows the opportunity that you have not just
17:42
Speaker 1: this week being at home against Jackson Mill, but also
17:44
Speaker 1: going on the road next week and facing Tennessee. You
17:47
Speaker 1: really have to own this quarter of this season if
17:51
Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Cults are going to find a way to
17:53
Speaker 1: be in the conversation to lead the division. Jack's Draft
17:56
Speaker 1: Time airs Monday, Wednesday and Thursday mornings on Jaguars dot
17:59
Speaker 1: Com and the Jags social media channels Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube. Also,
18:04
Speaker 1: this week, Huddle Up with Bucky Brooks, Bucky Oshan and
18:07
Speaker 1: I talked through the hot topic of the week, quarterback play.
18:11
Speaker 1: I thought last week it was clear in retrospect that
18:14
Speaker 1: the Texans didn't believe that if they allowed the Jaguars
18:18
Speaker 1: to get into the twenty five or thirty the red
18:21
Speaker 1: zone area, Uh four or five times or a period
18:24
Speaker 1: times better than Umber was. They didn't believe that he
18:27
Speaker 1: would be effective enough in that area to get away
18:31
Speaker 1: from them. You know, they probably looked at it and
18:33
Speaker 1: said he might make it a touchdown, a couple of
18:35
Speaker 1: field goals, thirteen points will have a chance. They were
18:37
Speaker 1: only able to get too so at this point, especially
18:40
Speaker 1: against the Guest Bradley defense or any defense. Now until
18:43
Speaker 1: he proves otherwise, that's going to be the approach a
18:46
Speaker 1: lot of teams take. You can see a lot more
18:48
Speaker 1: of what the Texans did, and this goes back to
18:51
Speaker 1: his first year. First game against the Texas, they played
18:53
Speaker 1: a lot of zone. They played eyes on the quarterback
18:57
Speaker 1: that those window was shrink when guys are getting early jumps.
19:00
Speaker 1: And so you heard Doug Peterson talk about when you
19:02
Speaker 1: play a Lovey Smith or Gus Bradley defense, what they
19:05
Speaker 1: do is not complicated. It's very simple in their approach.
19:09
Speaker 1: But they're banking that their defense, the defenders will be
19:13
Speaker 1: more disciplined than the quarterback and as the game goes on,
19:17
Speaker 1: the quarterback will get the itchy trigger finger and he
19:20
Speaker 1: will have some turnovers. We saw that from Trevor Lawrence.
19:23
Speaker 1: He has to really challenge himself to really be disciplined
19:27
Speaker 1: this week because he's gonna see the same kind of
19:29
Speaker 1: game playing a little different coverage, but same same philosophy
19:32
Speaker 1: when it comes to the different approach, I have a
19:34
Speaker 1: question for the scout JP alright or the ex quarterback?
19:37
Speaker 1: Do you ever play quarterback? But I do not. I
19:40
Speaker 1: was not smart enough to play quarterback. Itchy trigger finger.
19:43
Speaker 1: He threw it too much down the field. There's an
19:46
Speaker 1: element when you're playing a cover two as a quarterback
19:50
Speaker 1: that part of your success long term comes from being
19:53
Speaker 1: able to move defenders with your eyes. If if the
19:57
Speaker 1: dbs are gonna watch you, then you've got to be
20:00
Speaker 1: able to drop back and move guys sort of where
20:03
Speaker 1: you want them. Uh in your experienced scouting guys, and
20:08
Speaker 1: how long does that take? That seems like football two
20:11
Speaker 1: oh one and three oh one too, man. I know
20:12
Speaker 1: Trevor is not quite there yet. What's the process? How
20:16
Speaker 1: hard is that for a young guy to learn? It
20:18
Speaker 1: takes time. It takes a lot of time for those
20:20
Speaker 1: guys to understand the patients and the ying and yang
20:23
Speaker 1: of playing against the defense like that. One of the
20:25
Speaker 1: reasons why Drew Brees and Tom Brady and even Aaron
20:28
Speaker 1: Rodgers have been so great for so long is because
20:31
Speaker 1: they figured out early that the checkdown is a weapon
20:35
Speaker 1: that can help you get those teams out of those defenses.
20:38
Speaker 1: Meaning even though the defensive coordinator says he you want
20:41
Speaker 1: to keep the ball in front, guys, don't worry about it.
20:43
Speaker 1: As long as you keep the ball in front, I'll
20:45
Speaker 1: take it. Well, what happens if you string together a
20:48
Speaker 1: series of those checkdowns and completions and over and over again.
20:53
Speaker 1: At some point the defenders get tired or seeing the
20:56
Speaker 1: ball caught. The defensive coordinated gets tired of seeing the
20:59
Speaker 1: ball called underneath because everyone is like man, they just
21:02
Speaker 1: Nickelin dominant all the way down the field, and they
21:05
Speaker 1: begin to take a chance. And so what Trevor has
21:08
Speaker 1: to be able to do is be patient enough to
21:09
Speaker 1: take the underneath stuff, but be aware enough when the
21:13
Speaker 1: defenders out of position, and you gotta make that strike
21:17
Speaker 1: when it's there, and you gotta complete it because if
21:19
Speaker 1: you don't complete it, you may not see it again.
21:21
Speaker 1: For another tienda, Tol plays. And so is that that
21:24
Speaker 1: yinging and yang between the discipline and the aggressiveness. When
21:27
Speaker 1: it Merrits. Takes a lot of quarterbacks, um most of
21:31
Speaker 1: their careers to be able to get that done. It's
21:33
Speaker 1: all about the yang and yang ja learn huddle up
21:39
Speaker 1: with Bucky Brooks. There's Wednesdays at four o'clock on the
21:42
Speaker 1: Jaguars social media channels and Jaguars dot Com. Moving now
21:46
Speaker 1: to the ozone podcast from Friday, Wide receivers z A.
21:49
Speaker 1: Jones sat down with John Oser this week. They got
21:52
Speaker 1: into the state of the team through five weeks plus
21:55
Speaker 1: A little background on Zay's name. I talked to you
21:58
Speaker 1: a second ago, and you need teach yourself as Isaiah,
22:02
Speaker 1: tell me how z got there? Obviously sound that did
22:06
Speaker 1: somebody specific I give you that name? How did that start?
22:08
Speaker 1: It was just a childhood nickname. My family called ms.
22:12
Speaker 1: Z's my mother, my father, and then as I got
22:16
Speaker 1: to college, more people called ms and um, I guess
22:20
Speaker 1: I gained more notoriety as and then when it came
22:24
Speaker 1: to my senior season at East Carolina, when they were
22:27
Speaker 1: doing the announcements UM as far as like player introductions,
22:31
Speaker 1: they had asked me what I wanted to be announced as,
22:33
Speaker 1: and I just said to say I thought it was
22:34
Speaker 1: kind of funny or at least, you know, the fan
22:37
Speaker 1: base knew me as that, but I didn't know what
22:38
Speaker 1: was going to carry on to, like ESPN changing it
22:41
Speaker 1: Tuesday and then the NFL Draft announcing me as a
22:45
Speaker 1: so that that wasn't my intent and kind of just happened.
22:48
Speaker 1: I got you two and three. This season right now
22:51
Speaker 1: had some ups and downs. I started off talking about
22:53
Speaker 1: the Jags a little bit. Um. You're a veteran and
22:57
Speaker 1: have been through seasons ups and ups and outs. You
23:00
Speaker 1: know it's up and down. Lead. Um, is that your
23:03
Speaker 1: message to teammates this week that hey, this thing takes
23:06
Speaker 1: a while, These seasons take a while they play out.
23:08
Speaker 1: You follow me on that, Yeah, I do. Um, it
23:11
Speaker 1: is a very long season. I think the best thing
23:14
Speaker 1: that we can do is remain poise, remain confident, and
23:17
Speaker 1: trust what we're still doing. Um. You know you don't.
23:21
Speaker 1: You don't panic just because something may not go right
23:24
Speaker 1: one week. You know it's it's good to make adjustments
23:27
Speaker 1: and solid adjustments and kind of uh reload a little bit, recharge, um,
23:34
Speaker 1: bring things back center. But if you can stay balanced
23:37
Speaker 1: and kind of understand, okay, positive negatives which you can
23:41
Speaker 1: take from both aspects, place it together, focus on the
23:45
Speaker 1: task at hand. Um, you'll be fine. I've seen it. Um.
23:49
Speaker 1: By no means how I you know, going on the
23:51
Speaker 1: way the Super Bowl like Doug so having him as
23:53
Speaker 1: a leader, understanding what it takes him, reaffirming that, hey guys,
23:58
Speaker 1: this is what we need to do. Um. It gives
24:01
Speaker 1: you confidence as a player, gives a team confidence. How
24:03
Speaker 1: hard is that to learn as a young player? And
24:07
Speaker 1: I guess you gotta stay on social media to do it. Well,
24:10
Speaker 1: that's that's hard. Social media is everywhere. I think as
24:14
Speaker 1: a young player, I don't think you fully have graphs yet.
24:19
Speaker 1: How long the NFL season and what goes all into
24:22
Speaker 1: it and and what it means to be able to
24:24
Speaker 1: get to the playoffs and then having your chance there
24:27
Speaker 1: because you used to you know, guy's twelve thirteen games.
24:30
Speaker 1: Well that's you know, that's still not the full season.
24:35
Speaker 1: So the health aspect of it, staying healthy, um, staying
24:39
Speaker 1: in your playbook, new game plans, playing teams twice a year.
24:43
Speaker 1: There's a lot that goes in into it. So uh,
24:45
Speaker 1: it's a roller coaster at times. UM. I think that
24:48
Speaker 1: that's what makes the NFL so exciting for not only
24:51
Speaker 1: the players, competing but for fans and audiences is like
24:56
Speaker 1: it's any given Sunday type league. And UM, it's fun
24:59
Speaker 1: to be be a part of. It's fun to compete in.
25:01
Speaker 1: But if you can just stay grounded and play by
25:04
Speaker 1: play week by week as a young player, surround yourself
25:07
Speaker 1: with some great veteran leadership, UM, really open your ears
25:11
Speaker 1: to listening in beginning to find the routine that works
25:16
Speaker 1: for you. UM. I truly believe. UM, that's how you
25:19
Speaker 1: grasp it from from a younger age. The full ozone

Speaker 1: podcast is available now on the Official Jaguars Podcast Network

Speaker 1: and listen on Jaguars dot Com. Just click the podcast
25:29
Speaker 1: to have at the top of the home page. Now
25:31
Speaker 1: a preview of an interview that will air on Countdown
25:33
Speaker 1: to Kickoffs Sunday on the Jaguars Radio Network. Our good
25:37
Speaker 1: friend Andrew Catalan, CBS Sports play by Play announces there
25:40
Speaker 1: had plenty to discuss in our first conversation of the season.
25:44
Speaker 1: CBS Sports play by Play announcer Andrew Catalan back with
25:47
Speaker 1: us the tour of the a f C South's underway
25:50
Speaker 1: for twenty two. For you and James Lofton, it's nice
25:53
Speaker 1: to talk with you again. Andrew. What's up so much?
25:56
Speaker 1: A f C South in my blood, JP, and it
25:59
Speaker 1: feels good. It's good to be back with you, and
26:01
Speaker 1: I'm excited for this game. What is the state of
26:03
Speaker 1: the a f C South right now going into week six?
26:06
Speaker 1: What's the what's the power rankings? It's hard to figure.
26:10
Speaker 1: I did see the Titans last week in Washington, found
26:15
Speaker 1: a way to get it done late, some positive signs
26:18
Speaker 1: as they're on their by this week, but still, you know,
26:21
Speaker 1: digging out of that O two hole, it's not easy.
26:23
Speaker 1: They have won three in a row. See if they
26:25
Speaker 1: can keep it going. They don't have trailing Burke's I
26:28
Speaker 1: think that their offense outside of Derrick Henry lacks a
26:32
Speaker 1: playmaker right now, so I think that could be an
26:35
Speaker 1: issue for them. But then if you look around this
26:37
Speaker 1: division and you know, you can make a case for
26:39
Speaker 1: the Jags. The way they looked against the Chargers was phenomenal.
26:43
Speaker 1: The Colts, it's not been pretty, but they're finding ways
26:47
Speaker 1: to figure it out. You know, I've seen the Texans
26:50
Speaker 1: a bunch too, and obviously the record is what it is,
26:52
Speaker 1: but a defense is pretty good. We saw that against
26:55
Speaker 1: Jacksonville last week. So I think it's a very open
26:59
Speaker 1: division right now. You can make a case I think
27:01
Speaker 1: for all four teams at this juncture of the season. Andrew,
27:04
Speaker 1: you mentioned the Jaguars game in l A against the
27:07
Speaker 1: Chargers probably their best outing of the season overall, and
27:11
Speaker 1: then last week's game not the best outing on offense.
27:16
Speaker 1: They only scored two field goals, they were over three
27:19
Speaker 1: in the red zone. But that's what can happen with
27:22
Speaker 1: a young team sometimes and a new group together. You're
27:25
Speaker 1: gonna have some highs and lows. But you need the
27:28
Speaker 1: temperament of Doug Peterson to keep this team managed and
27:32
Speaker 1: moving forward. And I think it bounce back this week
27:35
Speaker 1: and be just fine and two and one of the
27:37
Speaker 1: in the division. Yeah. I think that's what makes them dangerous.
27:41
Speaker 1: That if they went to Indianapolis, who won by a
27:43
Speaker 1: couple of touchdowns, you know, you'd be impressed, but you
27:46
Speaker 1: you wouldn't be shocked. I wouldn't be shocked. Um. But
27:49
Speaker 1: you're also going to have those lows because they're young,
27:52
Speaker 1: as you point out, and they're not consistent, and that's
27:55
Speaker 1: what it takes in this league. You need to find
27:57
Speaker 1: that consistency, and you need to find way is to finish.
28:00
Speaker 1: I mean, you look at the Texans, they were in
28:03
Speaker 1: all of their their losses for the most part, they
28:06
Speaker 1: just couldn't get it done at the end of the game.
28:08
Speaker 1: And I think when you have a young team and
28:09
Speaker 1: a young quarterback, that happens at times. So you know,
28:13
Speaker 1: for this Jacksonville group, you point out, you know that
28:16
Speaker 1: the Chargers game is one of their best games out
28:19
Speaker 1: of the season, but the last few years, I know,
28:21
Speaker 1: they beat the Bills and that was that was a
28:23
Speaker 1: great win. But you know, that was a great performance
28:25
Speaker 1: by them, and they're certainly capable of that. But then
28:28
Speaker 1: you you look at last week and you know, that
28:30
Speaker 1: surprised me that they couldn't, you know, get some momentum going.
28:35
Speaker 1: And that's what it's going to take. Put a couple
28:37
Speaker 1: of wins together and get some momentum to get these
28:39
Speaker 1: young guys feeling good. The exclusive extended conversation runs over
28:43
Speaker 1: the weekend on the Official Jaguars podcast network, and finally,
28:47
Speaker 1: this week, head coach Doug Peterson answering a fan question
28:50
Speaker 1: and giving his final thoughts ahead of Sunday's Week six
28:53
Speaker 1: game on The Doug Peterson Show Thursday night. Coach, Let's
28:56
Speaker 1: Go to the Microsoft Surface for a social media question
29:00
Speaker 1: and this is from at angel Bladden one. Do players
29:03
Speaker 1: ever come to you with ideas for game planning? That's uh,
29:08
Speaker 1: that's a that's a great question. Um. You know, in time,
29:12
Speaker 1: from time to time they do. You know, we actually
29:13
Speaker 1: lean on our quarterback a little bit sometimes just to
29:16
Speaker 1: see what he's seeing, you know, early in the week
29:18
Speaker 1: and if he has any thoughts or ideas that we
29:20
Speaker 1: might be able to you know, um, you know, implicate
29:24
Speaker 1: and and really put into, um, you know, our game plan.
29:27
Speaker 1: So we listen to our guys. Um. But at the
29:30
Speaker 1: same time, we we kind of you know, I want
29:32
Speaker 1: to say we take it with a grain of salt,
29:33
Speaker 1: but you know, I we honestly that we do want
29:36
Speaker 1: their involvement, you know, because they're the ones out there playing,
29:38
Speaker 1: they see the game a certain way. We also want
29:40
Speaker 1: them to see the game how how we as coaches
29:43
Speaker 1: see it. Um. But but taking uh taking a play
29:48
Speaker 1: from time to time is not bad and and uh,
29:50
Speaker 1: you know, if we can put it to you, we will.
29:52
Speaker 1: There's some players though that when they talk, coaches listen,
29:55
Speaker 1: and they should. And there's some players that you're just like,
29:58
Speaker 1: you know, appreciate it. Thank you. Okay, let's get back
30:02
Speaker 1: and exactly right, stay in your playbook, exactly, stay in
