1:03
Speaker 1: John osan with us Now, Hi, John, you know, I
1:05
Speaker 1: love JP. I love the intros. Now for this show,
1:11
Speaker 1: I had a lot of podcast with Bucky Brooks and
1:13
Speaker 1: then there's this long pause and John it's fantastic. It
1:18
Speaker 1: might be my favorite thing about this fall. I'm really
1:21
Speaker 1: enjoying it. Bucking good afternoon to you, and it was
1:26
Speaker 1: going on long pause. I just want you to understand,
1:30
Speaker 1: Johnny Carson, every man did. Look they had a nice run.
1:33
Speaker 1: And I don't know if he have a man was
1:34
Speaker 1: every introduced, but he was a very vital part of
1:36
Speaker 1: the show. You know what he was. He was a
1:38
Speaker 1: long pause guy. I'm a long pause guy. Yeah, he was. Hey,
1:45
Speaker 1: I'm just happy to be included. Doc Severson got introduced
1:48
Speaker 1: before he did every night. Actually, yeah, but he was
1:50
Speaker 1: the guy introducing people. So it was hey, So let's
1:54
Speaker 1: get right to it. The Jaguars course back to practice
1:56
Speaker 1: today getting money for the week thirteen game against the
1:59
Speaker 1: Little Sands US Rams. It's so Far Stadium in Englewood, California.
2:03
Speaker 1: We heard from urban Meyer again today, but yesterday on
2:06
Speaker 1: The Urban Meyer Show, we asked him about what is
2:10
Speaker 1: an ideal offense for urban Meyer and the Jags. My
2:15
Speaker 1: entire career has been what's your offense? Tell me who
2:17
Speaker 1: my quarterback is? You know, what about your defense? Will
2:20
Speaker 1: tell me who our defensive ends are. You know, I
2:22
Speaker 1: was enamored with the three or four defense, but we
2:25
Speaker 1: were very fortunately kept recruiting these five star athletes that
2:28
Speaker 1: are four three defensive ends. So guess what defense we've
2:30
Speaker 1: played for three? You know, when Dwayne Haskins was a quarterback,
2:34
Speaker 1: we dropped back fifty times a game and he threw
2:37
Speaker 1: fifty touchdowns in a very few interceptions. When you know
2:40
Speaker 1: J T. Barrett or Tebow was your quarterback, You're not
2:43
Speaker 1: gonna do that. You're gonna run spread option football. So
2:46
Speaker 1: with Trevor Lawrence, you'd like to see a combination of
2:48
Speaker 1: what a little bit what you saw. I thought our
2:49
Speaker 1: offense at times looked unstoppable, you know, if you let
2:53
Speaker 1: him play his game in the gun. But you also
2:54
Speaker 1: and once again, James Robinsons is not himself yet, you know,
2:58
Speaker 1: and I love him, we all love him. He goes
2:59
Speaker 1: so is such a tough guy. But you can see
3:02
Speaker 1: just doesn't have that second gear, you know, the first
3:04
Speaker 1: gear that that he needs. But that to answer your question,
3:07
Speaker 1: a combination of both. And I see teams across the
3:11
Speaker 1: NFL do it. I know we can do it, and um,
3:14
Speaker 1: we just have to keep building. So there you have
3:16
Speaker 1: it from yesterday's Herbert Meyers show, Bucky and that depends
3:20
Speaker 1: on the personnel and and all that, and uh, there's
3:23
Speaker 1: the answer. What do you think? Well, I mean, I
3:26
Speaker 1: think it's the first time that I've ever heard him
3:28
Speaker 1: clearly address it, to be honest. Um, since Trevor Lawrence
3:30
Speaker 1: came in um into the fall, he never really is
3:33
Speaker 1: kind of given what the vision of the offense would be.
3:36
Speaker 1: It's always been a want to play pro style football,
3:39
Speaker 1: going to play in the pro offense. That is the
3:41
Speaker 1: first time that I've heard Urban articulate, hey should be
3:44
Speaker 1: a mix. It should be a mix of him doing
3:45
Speaker 1: gun stuff, read options stuff, some traditional stuff and those things. Um,
3:50
Speaker 1: it is a personnel driven deal when it comes to
3:53
Speaker 1: the National Football League, and you gotta do what's your
3:55
Speaker 1: best players are best at, and it starts with the quarterback.
3:59
Speaker 1: And so I would expect to see more of what
4:03
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence did successfully at Clemson while still mixing in
4:07
Speaker 1: some of the stuff that are the trends in the
4:08
Speaker 1: National Football League. UM, that makes sense, and so hopefully
4:11
Speaker 1: we can see more of that as the season is
4:14
Speaker 1: UM down the quarter stretch, Well, I think we're going
4:18
Speaker 1: to see more of it. Um. You know, people who
4:21
Speaker 1: have listened to me know how I feel about it.
4:25
Speaker 1: The RPOs worry me because it means a lot of
4:27
Speaker 1: running for the quarterback. Um. I think it will be
4:30
Speaker 1: kept to a minimum. I think they will still use
4:34
Speaker 1: it to a degree. But it does go back to
4:38
Speaker 1: you don't want this kid hurt and A. Remyer said
4:42
Speaker 1: the magic words after the game on Sunday when he said,
4:46
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence looks like he does a good job protecting
4:48
Speaker 1: himself from getting down. That's the key. Uh, And you
4:52
Speaker 1: hope that he does, because what you don't want is
4:55
Speaker 1: injured quarterback rehabing this offseason rather than being in volve
5:00
Speaker 1: with O T A. So I think we're gonna see it,
5:03
Speaker 1: and I want to see him come out of this healthy.
5:07
Speaker 1: H John, Like, come on, man, we were so pessimistic
5:10
Speaker 1: over there. We're worried about the injuries and those things.
5:12
Speaker 1: There are ways to UM run the r P O
5:15
Speaker 1: s without exposing the quarterback two hits, Like a lot
5:18
Speaker 1: of the run pass options stuff is not necessarily the
5:21
Speaker 1: quarterback running, but it's stick a ball in the billy
5:23
Speaker 1: of the running back while identifying the defender on the
5:26
Speaker 1: second level, and what you do is you either hand
5:28
Speaker 1: it to the running back or you pull it and
5:30
Speaker 1: you throw a slant that whizzes behind the defender's ear.
5:33
Speaker 1: There are things that they can do that are read
5:36
Speaker 1: option oriented that don't necessarily involve Trevor Lawrence men the
5:40
Speaker 1: guy who is the runner, and so I think depending
5:43
Speaker 1: on who's on the coaching staff kind of delving into this,
5:46
Speaker 1: there are a bunch of new age concepts that they're
5:48
Speaker 1: doing at the collegiate level where you don't necessarily have
5:51
Speaker 1: to have an athletic quarterback to do it. Trevor is
5:53
Speaker 1: athletic enough to run it, but I mean it keeps advancing.
5:57
Speaker 1: There are a bunch of different things that I mean,
5:59
Speaker 1: we see every set out of day that quarterbacks are
6:01
Speaker 1: involved in manipulating and kind of uh teasing and tormented
6:05
Speaker 1: defense without necessarily having to put themselves out there as runners.
6:09
Speaker 1: I would like to see Jacksonville do that. Then we
6:11
Speaker 1: can get the best of both worlds. We can do
6:13
Speaker 1: the RPO stuff that Trevor likes, and we can keep
6:16
Speaker 1: them safe and secure like you want them to be.
6:19
Speaker 1: Watched games on Sunday, and I like a guy who
6:22
Speaker 1: point in the pocket. Look, Okay, I'm I ain't. I
6:29
Speaker 1: ain't gonna love running quarterbacks, but but I'm I'm going
6:34
Speaker 1: to defer to you. You're the scout, you're the football
6:36
Speaker 1: knowledge guy. Just keep him safe. Yes, that that that
6:41
Speaker 1: is the primary number one thing obviously for this team.
6:45
Speaker 1: But what about quick tempo offense? Trevor Lawrence today on
6:50
Speaker 1: how that could help things out. Yeah, it helps a
6:53
Speaker 1: lot when you can play with tempo. UM. It obviously
6:55
Speaker 1: slows down the pass for us. You know, guys get
6:57
Speaker 1: tired eventually, UM, and it just helps us keep the
7:00
Speaker 1: defense on their heels. It's harder to dial things up
7:03
Speaker 1: when you're you're playing against the tempo team. You know,
7:05
Speaker 1: you don't get set, you don't always get your call in,
7:08
Speaker 1: so a lot of times, you know, you go back
7:09
Speaker 1: to your base call or whatever that is. So that helps. Uh.
7:13
Speaker 1: They're they're good, they're really good defense. So we got
7:15
Speaker 1: our hands full with that. But we're excited for the challenge.
7:17
Speaker 1: You know. Obviously we had a good plan that we
7:18
Speaker 1: were putting together a great day to day um. But yeah,
7:21
Speaker 1: tempo was was good for us last week. So we'll
7:23
Speaker 1: keep you know, expanding on that, and um, do what
7:26
Speaker 1: we need to do to to put us in the
7:28
Speaker 1: best situation. So there's you know, two sides of this
7:31
Speaker 1: as well. Obviously, as you see his numbers last week
7:35
Speaker 1: against Atlanta, UH, one of those there's those five rushes
7:38
Speaker 1: for thirty nine yards that John loves and then for
7:41
Speaker 1: the season passing. But there's two sides of this quick
7:46
Speaker 1: tempo argument too, Bucky alright, alright, speeds it up, It
7:49
Speaker 1: keeps the defense off balance, all that stuff. If you're
7:52
Speaker 1: moving the ball well, as John would say, if you're
7:56
Speaker 1: going quickly and going three and out, the defense is
7:59
Speaker 1: right back on the field at him. Yeah. From philosophical standpoint,
8:02
Speaker 1: there are a lot of things that kind of go
8:04
Speaker 1: into being able to play with tempo. Uh. If you
8:06
Speaker 1: want to play fast, then what you have to make
8:08
Speaker 1: sure is that you are able to get first downs.
8:11
Speaker 1: But part of being able to get first downs then
8:13
Speaker 1: comes to, okay, how can we put runs and passes
8:16
Speaker 1: that are high probability for success, meaning quick passes, bubble screens,
8:23
Speaker 1: things that allow you to get five six yards so
8:25
Speaker 1: you can consistently move the chains. The r p O
8:28
Speaker 1: s where you may have three plays package into one.
8:30
Speaker 1: You have a run, you have a quick pass, you
8:33
Speaker 1: have a bubble screen. All of those things into it.
8:36
Speaker 1: And so when you say that you want to do
8:38
Speaker 1: these things, I don't know if it's something that you
8:41
Speaker 1: can kind of just halfway get into and say, yeah,
8:44
Speaker 1: we want to do a little bit of it. You
8:46
Speaker 1: almost have to live in that world and you have
8:48
Speaker 1: to trust that Trevor Lawrence is a great decision maker.
8:51
Speaker 1: He's not only gonna make good decisions with the ball,
8:53
Speaker 1: but he's also gonna keep himself out of harm's way.
8:55
Speaker 1: And so that's the debate that they're probably having in
8:58
Speaker 1: meeting rooms trying to figure out how much do we
9:01
Speaker 1: want to kind of deal into this world because it
9:03
Speaker 1: does take um a different philosophy than the offense of
9:07
Speaker 1: philosophy that we've seen to this point. Yeah, I mean
9:10
Speaker 1: I love tempo, I really do. I like when an
9:14
Speaker 1: offense gets the line of scrimmage quickly. When it's working,
9:18
Speaker 1: it's devastating for a defense. Uh. You know, I covered
9:23
Speaker 1: it for ten years with the Colts where they would
9:25
Speaker 1: go no huddle, it worked. They had a high functioning offense.
9:29
Speaker 1: The you know, the obvious issue is what Bucky said,
9:33
Speaker 1: if you don't get the first down. It's tempo because
9:37
Speaker 1: it's really tempo because you're off the field in thirty
9:39
Speaker 1: seconds and you know, and that's not so good because
9:43
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, we've seen that around here the
9:45
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks where when your defense is down
9:47
Speaker 1: the field, Ran thirty four plays the jag Wars four. Well, yep,
9:51
Speaker 1: tempo that you know, it's if it works, it's terrific.
9:56
Speaker 1: Uh So again, I think, as Trevor Lawrence said a
9:59
Speaker 1: day during his ailability, it's not something tempo that you
10:02
Speaker 1: can do all the time. You have to pick your
10:05
Speaker 1: spots with it. You still have to play. And he
10:07
Speaker 1: used the key phrase complimentary football. Well, what he means
10:11
Speaker 1: there is that tempo doesn't always compliment the defense that well.
10:15
Speaker 1: So do it right, have it work, mix it in,
10:18
Speaker 1: just like with the R P O S. Mix it in.
10:20
Speaker 1: You have to have some of it. Can is this
10:24
Speaker 1: offense ready right now to be all up tempo? I
10:27
Speaker 1: would say that the talent is not there to do
10:30
Speaker 1: that yet. Yeah, John not all the time to speak
10:35
Speaker 1: yeah now to speak on it. Like some of the
10:36
Speaker 1: things that you can do with tempo is it's at
10:39
Speaker 1: his best when it's the element of surprise, meaning that
10:42
Speaker 1: James Robinson breaks off a twelve of your game. First down,
10:46
Speaker 1: get on the ball, go again, Uh, have a four
10:49
Speaker 1: yard play, Get on the ball, pause, fake dummy count,
10:54
Speaker 1: assess what's going on. The headset is still working, then
10:57
Speaker 1: Bibo can talk Trevor Lawrence through some things things and
11:00
Speaker 1: you can dictate the thing. And so when we talk
11:03
Speaker 1: about from a philosophical standpoint, this is everybody being on
11:07
Speaker 1: board and being able to communicate and having a clear
11:10
Speaker 1: vision for how this offense should operate. And you know,
11:14
Speaker 1: like it's a little grab bag to try and do
11:16
Speaker 1: it like at this stage because there are a lot
11:19
Speaker 1: of things that need to be kind of baked into it.
11:20
Speaker 1: But I do believe if you kind of get the
11:23
Speaker 1: tempo going for your quarterback, he'll get into a rhythm.
11:27
Speaker 1: But you have to make sure that the plays match
11:30
Speaker 1: out fast that you want to play because it has
11:32
Speaker 1: to be high completion percentage passes. It has to be
11:36
Speaker 1: runs that can get you three or four yards. You
11:38
Speaker 1: have to be able to move the change if not,
11:39
Speaker 1: You're right is once you three punt defense back on
11:43
Speaker 1: the field and then over time they get worn down
11:45
Speaker 1: and then a close game becomes a blowout because your
11:48
Speaker 1: defense is just tired. Hey, Bucky, how much more difficult
11:51
Speaker 1: is all this? Uh? With what Urban's been talking about
11:55
Speaker 1: with the fluidity has been his word, meaning you've got
11:58
Speaker 1: new receivers tread well, Austin, you have new tight end
12:02
Speaker 1: coming in. It would seemed to me that it would
12:04
Speaker 1: be more difficult to sort of tweak these things when
12:08
Speaker 1: you have revolving door with personnel. You know, it actually
12:12
Speaker 1: could be easier, John, because if they just come in
12:14
Speaker 1: on Monday and so you know what, guys, we're going
12:16
Speaker 1: up tempo here the twelve plays that we're gonna run,
12:18
Speaker 1: and we'll run them over and over and over again. Uh,
12:21
Speaker 1: just learned these twelve players. Don't worry about the entire playbook.
12:23
Speaker 1: Everyone can get up to speed because most of the
12:25
Speaker 1: guys that you mentioned played in collegiate offenses that were
12:29
Speaker 1: tempo based and a lot of times just I mean,
12:32
Speaker 1: it's a lot easy to do. Now you're repeating a
12:35
Speaker 1: lot of the same plays and you have to have
12:37
Speaker 1: success and you have to have some variants in that
12:40
Speaker 1: on a week to week basis. But I mean at
12:43
Speaker 1: the collegiate level, they believe the reason you go tempo
12:45
Speaker 1: is because you get so good at repeating those plays
12:48
Speaker 1: that at some point um they master them. And look
12:52
Speaker 1: the guy who just got a ton of money to
12:54
Speaker 1: go to USC, Lincoln Riley. I think when I look
12:56
Speaker 1: at the sideline of his call, she is about that
12:58
Speaker 1: big and they s a ton of points. That Oklahoma
13:01
Speaker 1: doing it. I know the NFL is a little different,
13:03
Speaker 1: but it ain't how many plays that you call, is
13:05
Speaker 1: how you run them and how you execute them. Yeah,
13:07
Speaker 1: if you can get it done and score points, that's
13:09
Speaker 1: all that matters. We're just getting started on Huddle Up
13:12
Speaker 1: with Bucky Brooks. Will come back at a moment and
13:14
Speaker 1: take a look at the l A Rams and we'll
13:17
Speaker 1: see Trevor Lawrence's cleats. It's my cause my cleats this
13:21
Speaker 1: week around the NFL and Huddle Up with Bucky Brooks
13:24
Speaker 1: is brought to you by Fields Cadillac of Jacksonville and
13:26
Speaker 1: Fields Cadillacs St. Augustine, members of the Fields Auto Group,
13:30
Speaker 1: And this is Huddle Up with Bucky Brooks on the
13:32
Speaker 1: Jaguars Digital Network. I think it's really cool. I haven't
13:38
Speaker 1: even seen a lot of these actors. I'm excited to
13:40
Speaker 1: look at them, but I think it's super cool to
13:42
Speaker 1: give guys a platform to you know, show what their
13:44
Speaker 1: passionate about and then get other people in bars involved,
13:47
Speaker 1: you know, the artists, the nonprofits, whatever it is. I
13:50
Speaker 1: think it's a really cool thing the NFL does. And um,
13:52
Speaker 1: it's also cool getting to see all the designs and
13:54
Speaker 1: everybody wearing them on the fields and being awesome. That's
13:58
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence of course, Jaguars quarterback today Unboxing day for
14:02
Speaker 1: my Cause, my cleats, And there's a look at Trevor
14:07
Speaker 1: Lawrences cleats this week Long Branch Elementary. That was the
14:11
Speaker 1: group that greeted Trevor when he arrived at t I A.
14:15
Speaker 1: Bank Field the day after the draft. They were out,
14:17
Speaker 1: there were signs and everything and welcomed him to Jacksonville.
14:21
Speaker 1: So he's honoring that school with his cleats today. We'll
14:24
Speaker 1: let's see another pair or so coming up a little
14:27
Speaker 1: later on the show and they'll wear them during the
14:30
Speaker 1: week third team matchup against the Rams this week at
14:33
Speaker 1: so FI Stadium and in Week fourteen against the Titans
14:37
Speaker 1: at Nissan Stadium in Nashville. And nearly fifty Jags players
14:40
Speaker 1: and coaches have elected to participate this year. So good
14:44
Speaker 1: causes they'll be auctioned off later down the road for charity.
14:50
Speaker 1: Huddle up with Bucky Brooks. Continue j P. Shadwick, John
14:52
Speaker 1: Osier and Bucky Brooks, and let's move along to the
14:56
Speaker 1: Los Angeles Rams, the opponent this week, battle of T
15:00
Speaker 1: teams that have lost three consecutive games. The Rams, though,
15:03
Speaker 1: are certainly very much still alive in the NFC playoff race.
15:07
Speaker 1: But since they put the all Star team together, Bucky,
15:10
Speaker 1: they are over three. Yeah, it hasn't gone according to
15:14
Speaker 1: script out here in l a UM. They are not
15:18
Speaker 1: uh necessarily playing great and a lot of their problems
15:21
Speaker 1: not necessarily stem from all the new faces. It kind
15:24
Speaker 1: of stems from their style of play right now. What
15:26
Speaker 1: they have is um kind of the limit. The way
15:29
Speaker 1: that the quarterback plays UM is great for him, but
15:33
Speaker 1: it doesn't work for everybody else. This has been a
15:35
Speaker 1: team that has traditionally been able to run the football
15:37
Speaker 1: through off play action, have a lot of big plays
15:40
Speaker 1: off deception in this direction. Matthew Stafford is a quarterback
15:43
Speaker 1: that is more comfortable in a dropback scenario where they're
15:47
Speaker 1: kind of spreading it out empty formations and he's working
15:50
Speaker 1: uh isolation routes in those things. The problem is their
15:54
Speaker 1: offensive line doesn't protect well in in in that kind
15:57
Speaker 1: of system, and so what you have is a very
16:00
Speaker 1: disjointed offense that doesn't look like the offense that we've
16:04
Speaker 1: seen from the Rams for the last few years, and
16:07
Speaker 1: they're struggling because of it. And the final part is
16:09
Speaker 1: this is not a very physical team. Uh. The teams
16:12
Speaker 1: that have had the most success against the Rams of
16:14
Speaker 1: late have been the ones that have sucked them right
16:16
Speaker 1: in the mouth, and they haven't responded well. Now, I
16:18
Speaker 1: would like to say that Jacksonville can do that, but
16:21
Speaker 1: we just haven't seen that when it comes to a
16:23
Speaker 1: physical running game and a very physical defense. But the
16:26
Speaker 1: calling car for Rams, you gotta hit the faces that
16:28
Speaker 1: they get up. Yeah, and that's why you know San
16:30
Speaker 1: Francisco has so much success. They can they can line
16:34
Speaker 1: up and do that John against a team like l A.
16:37
Speaker 1: I'm curious, Bucky, is there any element to this um?
16:42
Speaker 1: You know, you've got a lot of stars, but they
16:44
Speaker 1: don't strike you as an overly deep team. And I
16:48
Speaker 1: only see them, you know, And maybe that's what you're
16:50
Speaker 1: talking about with the physicality. But you've got all these
16:53
Speaker 1: stars and you wonder after a while if they're drafting
16:56
Speaker 1: the depth to be a young team that plays the
16:59
Speaker 1: way they want to play. You know what I'm getting at.
17:01
Speaker 1: I do know what you're getting at. UH, death is
17:03
Speaker 1: a concern. UH. Their frontline stars are outstanding, though, like
17:06
Speaker 1: the talent that they have assembled is terrific. The issue
17:11
Speaker 1: that you have is not only like trying to put
17:14
Speaker 1: all this together from a chemistry standpoint to coach in
17:16
Speaker 1: the locker room, but remember you have a new defensive
17:19
Speaker 1: coordinating Rhey Morris, who wasn't UM. He's not necessarily running
17:22
Speaker 1: the same defense at Brandon stated he's running. You have
17:25
Speaker 1: Sean McVeigh trying to figure out how to call plays
17:27
Speaker 1: for a different quarterback than the one that he had
17:29
Speaker 1: for the previous three or four years in Jerry Goff.
17:31
Speaker 1: All of those things kind of working together UM has
17:34
Speaker 1: been a challenge, and it's been a challenge as the
17:37
Speaker 1: tape has circulated around the league. The first four or
17:40
Speaker 1: five weeks of the season, it was great because no
17:42
Speaker 1: one has seen the Rams operate like this, But now
17:45
Speaker 1: the tape circulates, people see how defensive coordinators are having
17:48
Speaker 1: success against them. They put those same game plans to
17:51
Speaker 1: see if Sean McVeigh has an answer and they have it,
17:54
Speaker 1: and so it's one of those things that will be
17:56
Speaker 1: interesting to see on Sunday. What kind of game plan
17:59
Speaker 1: do the Jaguars put together on offense and on defense
18:03
Speaker 1: to take advantage of some of the vulnerabilities that this
18:05
Speaker 1: team is shown on both sides of the ball. So, UH,
18:08
Speaker 1: coach Bucky Brooks, defensive coordinator Bucky Brooks, Shaq Griffins on
18:13
Speaker 1: the injury reports still at least through the day to
18:16
Speaker 1: not practice today? How are you covering Cooper Cup? Who?
18:22
Speaker 1: That's a tough one. It's a tough one because, Uh,
18:25
Speaker 1: Cooper Cup is Matthew Stafford's go to receiver and then
18:29
Speaker 1: the thing about it is he can have a ton
18:31
Speaker 1: of catches but not have a major impact on the game.
18:35
Speaker 1: The other guys Van Jefferson, Odell Beckham Jr. They tend
18:39
Speaker 1: to have a greater impact in terms of delivering big plays.
18:42
Speaker 1: So what you have to figure out one when you're
18:44
Speaker 1: the Jaguars, Okay, what are you living to live with?
18:46
Speaker 1: Are you willing to live with Cooper Cup having ten
18:48
Speaker 1: catches for maybe a hundred and ten yards but no touchdowns?
18:52
Speaker 1: Or are you willing to really double team him take
18:55
Speaker 1: him away, but you may give up a big play
18:57
Speaker 1: to Odell Beckham Jr. Or Van Jefferson or Tyler hig Be.
19:00
Speaker 1: That is the big thing. From a philosophical standpoint, Well,
19:03
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford has struggled with He has been good with
19:06
Speaker 1: the blitz of late, but he also hasn't been good
19:08
Speaker 1: when you sit back and make him throw into coverage
19:11
Speaker 1: because he's big play hunting. He wants to let the
19:14
Speaker 1: ball go and fly down the field, and when you
19:17
Speaker 1: take that away, he is struggled being disciplined enough to
19:19
Speaker 1: take the check down. I think you have to have
19:21
Speaker 1: a little of a ride in the game plan to
19:22
Speaker 1: kind of see which Matthew Stafford shows up on game day.
19:25
Speaker 1: It strikes you, and again I don't I don't know
19:29
Speaker 1: the Ran as well as Bucky, but it strikes you
19:31
Speaker 1: that they are sort of Buffalo West don't really run
19:34
Speaker 1: that well. Uh. And you know, once Woods is out,
19:40
Speaker 1: o b J is not Robert Woods, and it is
19:44
Speaker 1: a different you know, everybody sort of has penned well,
19:49
Speaker 1: they got Beckham Jr. And they got von Miller and
19:52
Speaker 1: there at the same team sense. To me, it's more
19:54
Speaker 1: they're not the same team since whoever Woods is out. Uh,
19:57
Speaker 1: and he is such a rated receiver to me that
20:03
Speaker 1: Uh again, that's my dime store kitchen table assessment. And
20:08
Speaker 1: Rams because I don't know them as deeply as Bucky.
20:10
Speaker 1: But we haven't talked about jail and yet. Yeah, I
20:13
Speaker 1: was gonna hold off and the defensive second. I mean
20:16
Speaker 1: we can flip it around a defense now for sure.
20:18
Speaker 1: The Rams, well, it starts up front with Aaron Donald
20:22
Speaker 1: of course leading the way. There. They've got outside linebackers
20:26
Speaker 1: and Von Miller and Leonard Floyd and then of course
20:29
Speaker 1: on the back end there's Jalen Ramsey, who you will
20:32
Speaker 1: hear before you see. And he's a former jack. Of course,
20:35
Speaker 1: everybody knows that first round pick in traded off in
20:39
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen. Orb Meyer said yesterday on his show and
20:44
Speaker 1: again today, you know it'd be nice for us here. Well,
20:46
Speaker 1: that ship has sailed obviously with a previous regime. Uh,
20:51
Speaker 1: he's now again. I wanted all pro, not nod back
20:55
Speaker 1: last season, and he's got three picks this year. And Ellen,
21:00
Speaker 1: when he wants to be the top corner and football,
21:02
Speaker 1: he can be Bucky. He absolutely can be. And what
21:07
Speaker 1: has happened to Jalen since he's come to l A UM,
21:10
Speaker 1: they've allowed him to be more engaged. UM last year
21:14
Speaker 1: and Brandon Stately, Brandon Staly did a great job of
21:16
Speaker 1: putting him at what they call the star position, which
21:19
Speaker 1: is basically the nickelback position, so it's half linebacker, half
21:23
Speaker 1: slot corner. UM, you got a little mixed and sprinkle
21:26
Speaker 1: some other responsibilities and duties that they gave him. But
21:30
Speaker 1: what it did it forced him to kind of step
21:32
Speaker 1: into a leadership role because he had to communicate all
21:34
Speaker 1: the time and sometimes players like that. They thrived with
21:38
Speaker 1: more responsibility when it comes to the defense and blitzing
21:42
Speaker 1: off the edge and doing a lot of different things.
21:44
Speaker 1: It's been a little different for him this year because
21:46
Speaker 1: Brahei Morrison, Braheim Morris has used him extensively in the slot,
21:50
Speaker 1: and you know, sometimes you can waste him in the
21:53
Speaker 1: slot when you don't have a dynamic slot receiver that
21:56
Speaker 1: you're defending. Uh, it'd be interesting how to deploy him
21:59
Speaker 1: against Jacks. But make no mistake, UM, there's some games
22:03
Speaker 1: that Jalen Ramsey may check out of. This won't be one.
22:08
Speaker 1: This will not be one. Unfortunately. I would expect Jalen
22:11
Speaker 1: rams to be on a ten, and that ten will
22:14
Speaker 1: be wide open from pregame warm ups. He is going
22:17
Speaker 1: to be frothing at the mouth to get out to
22:19
Speaker 1: the Jacks, no doubt. Yeah, I agree to a point. Um,
22:25
Speaker 1: I also think there's a scenario here where Jalen and
22:27
Speaker 1: he'll be incredibly motivated, he'll come out. Uh but if
22:31
Speaker 1: he if he looks across the line of scrimmage for
22:33
Speaker 1: somebody to be mad at, there's nobody left. He's mad
22:38
Speaker 1: at a logo at this point. I mean, you know,
22:41
Speaker 1: Lender's still here. Beyond that, there's nobody on offense, Linda
22:45
Speaker 1: and Norwell. You know, Okay, Coffin's gone, Caldwell is gone.
22:50
Speaker 1: Everybody in the defense is gone. As much as I
22:54
Speaker 1: would like to think that uh players thinking a very
22:57
Speaker 1: rational j of all people, if it does not matter.
23:03
Speaker 1: It wouldn't surprise me if he goes and tries to
23:06
Speaker 1: bark at Urban just because Urban's head goes over there,
23:10
Speaker 1: like anybody with the logo on is fair game. I'll
23:16
Speaker 1: be in the game on Sunday. He may bark at me.
23:18
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna try and stay out the way, like
23:19
Speaker 1: just no friendly fire from Jamie Ramsey. But I think
23:22
Speaker 1: he's gonna be a lot. He's wide open. But to
23:26
Speaker 1: that point, like, maybe you can take advantage of that
23:27
Speaker 1: aggressiveness a little bit. I think you have to be
23:29
Speaker 1: careful and pick your spots. But look, he's gonna be
23:31
Speaker 1: looking to make big plays and all that other stuff.
23:34
Speaker 1: Uh maybe you use that too, is uh disadvantage by
23:37
Speaker 1: maybe double moving him and doing some things to kind
23:39
Speaker 1: of get him out of source because he is so aggressive.
23:43
Speaker 1: All right, Aaron Donald, how do you how do you
23:46
Speaker 1: scheme against him? Man? I don't like a This is
23:50
Speaker 1: a tough one, JP, because this dude is unbelievable. Um,
23:55
Speaker 1: it's rare that you find guys that are able to
23:57
Speaker 1: do what he does. He's a high motive player. He's
24:00
Speaker 1: on he has great leverage. Um, I mean he wears
24:02
Speaker 1: people out. They'll move him around. He'll play anywhere from
24:05
Speaker 1: inside to all the way on the outside, the stretches
24:08
Speaker 1: of the front line, he can get after the pass
24:10
Speaker 1: or I mean, look, the stats have not been as
24:13
Speaker 1: impressive as we're accustomed to seeing from him, but he
24:16
Speaker 1: is still a dominant player. This is one where Man's
24:19
Speaker 1: Where's Waldough? Everyone needs to know where the number ninety
24:22
Speaker 1: nine is at all times. Because he's a game record
24:25
Speaker 1: and you know how turnovers impact the game. You gotta
24:28
Speaker 1: keep him off Trevor Lawrence. Um, we talked about Trevor
24:31
Speaker 1: Lawrence running to read option. It may not all the
24:33
Speaker 1: way be safe for him in the pocket this week
24:35
Speaker 1: with ninety nine chasing him, you gotta make sure you
24:37
Speaker 1: take care of ninety nine. Yeah. John ben Bart's better
24:40
Speaker 1: strap up this week. Well, yeah, and I think he's
24:44
Speaker 1: right everything you hear is he's probably not quite at
24:47
Speaker 1: the level that he was last year. Uh, but that
24:52
Speaker 1: graphic showed a remarkable thing. If you look at the
24:54
Speaker 1: history of this league. Remember two thousand and eleven, twousand,
24:57
Speaker 1: twelve and J. J. Watt is gonna like reinvent defensive football.
25:01
Speaker 1: And J. J. Watt was a wonderful player, but but
25:04
Speaker 1: but really couldn't stay healthy enough to do it. Two thousand, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen,
25:10
Speaker 1: nineteen and twenty. Aaron Donald's been first team All Pro.
25:13
Speaker 1: You know how hard it is to stay healthy at
25:15
Speaker 1: defensive tackle to be a first team All Pro. Uh,
25:19
Speaker 1: this guy is one of the greatest defensive linemen of
25:21
Speaker 1: all time. I mean you know, he's walk in first
25:26
Speaker 1: ballot guy at a position we're not supposed to get sacks,
25:28
Speaker 1: defensive tackle. He's a he's otherworldly good to me. I mean,
25:33
Speaker 1: obviously I'm not saying anything that's new, but that fifteen
25:36
Speaker 1: to twenties stat first team all pro to be healthy
25:39
Speaker 1: and at a high level enough to do that. Uh.
25:43
Speaker 1: If if you don't really if you don't realize it
25:45
Speaker 1: already realizing it's your watching a Rushmore type player in
25:52
Speaker 1: his position, Yeah, I mean, he is unbelievable. And I
25:56
Speaker 1: think what is remarkab about him is just when we
25:59
Speaker 1: would get a chance to watch him up close and personal,
26:01
Speaker 1: just watching how he looks physically. Um, I mean, he
26:05
Speaker 1: is a rocked up, in shape, fit and trim dude.
26:08
Speaker 1: And if you ever have a chance to watch some
26:09
Speaker 1: of the stuff that pops up on show social media
26:12
Speaker 1: with him and his footwork and him going through the
26:14
Speaker 1: ladder and over bags and all the other stuff, defensive
26:17
Speaker 1: tackles are not supposed to move like that. I mean,
26:19
Speaker 1: the dude is a defensive tackle with running back like feet.
26:22
Speaker 1: So it's a problem, and so you gotta make sure
26:24
Speaker 1: when you're building your game playing that has to be
26:26
Speaker 1: number one? Hey man, how are we gonna take care
26:28
Speaker 1: of number nine? Point of attack? And then the other
26:30
Speaker 1: thing is where is number five at the second level?
26:33
Speaker 1: Where is Jalen Ramsey? Is he blissing? Is he in coverage?
26:35
Speaker 1: Who is he matched up on? Having a plan for
26:38
Speaker 1: those two guys? I think that is depriard and then
26:40
Speaker 1: you gotta build out the rest of the game playing
26:42
Speaker 1: from there. I have one more Rams question. Okay, all
26:48
Speaker 1: this said about the Rams, They've lost three in a row,
26:52
Speaker 1: They've gotten whipped three games in a rup, uh double
26:56
Speaker 1: digit losses. I I think they're gonna win, Son, I
27:01
Speaker 1: don't think Jaguars can match up with them. Is this
27:03
Speaker 1: a team that is still a super Bowl team? That's
27:05
Speaker 1: what we're doing. We're just giving away wins. Come on,
27:09
Speaker 1: you're going west but realistic? Holy smokes. But I hope
27:17
Speaker 1: you don't pass by the players in the hall where
27:18
Speaker 1: they look mad at you. Well I would. I would
27:23
Speaker 1: loving to prove me wrong. But come on, but I
27:26
Speaker 1: think is still a super Bowl team. I think they
27:30
Speaker 1: can be a super Bowl team, but they have to
27:31
Speaker 1: improve in a few different areas. They've gotta be more
27:33
Speaker 1: committed to running the football because they don't run the football.
27:36
Speaker 1: They don't have the same kind of power and pop
27:39
Speaker 1: that they've had. Running the football is not only something
27:42
Speaker 1: about their physicality, but it worked well with their offensive line.
27:45
Speaker 1: Their offensive line is built to kind of run like
27:48
Speaker 1: elephants on parade, the outside zone, run the things that
27:51
Speaker 1: they did successfully when Todd Gurley was there and even
27:54
Speaker 1: last year with Kim Akers like that's a big part
27:56
Speaker 1: of how they play. And then they run misdirection bootlegs
27:59
Speaker 1: and explosive play is off of that. But if they're
28:01
Speaker 1: gonna line up and make it a seven or seven game,
28:03
Speaker 1: it actually plays into the jaguars favor and so um
28:07
Speaker 1: the glimmer of hope in this is what you pointed to,
28:10
Speaker 1: hey man, Buffalo Bills are supposed to come down to
28:12
Speaker 1: Jackson only walk all over the Jaguars and do all
28:14
Speaker 1: that magical stuff, and they gotta beat down because they
28:17
Speaker 1: kind of played into the Jack's hands. This could be
28:20
Speaker 1: a situation that kind of plays into the Jack's hands
28:22
Speaker 1: because they don't necessarily commit to run to football. But
28:25
Speaker 1: now as a man keep recovering on the outside and
28:28
Speaker 1: can recovering on the outside for sixty minutes, that's a
28:30
Speaker 1: big deal. And at some point you need to hit
28:33
Speaker 1: the quarterback. Do we have enough to hit the quarterback
28:36
Speaker 1: to make him change to quicken timing in the passing
28:40
Speaker 1: game and do all those other things? Sounds like Bucky's
28:43
Speaker 1: guarantee of Jackson. That's what it sounds like to me. Well,
28:45
Speaker 1: I'll let that marinade for a couple of minutes. We'll
28:48
Speaker 1: be right back and plenty ahead with social media questions,
28:52
Speaker 1: and there were plenty today on Twitter. And this is
28:57
Speaker 1: huddle UF with Bucky Brooks on a Wednesday on the
28:59
Speaker 1: Jaguars Digital Network. My cleats for my best friend Steve Tellson. Um,

29:12
Speaker 1: of spread. But he was at the Titans game. Um, yeah,
29:16
Speaker 1: he's got a pair of those coming two hours. I
29:18
Speaker 1: think this is the fourth or fifth year now. And uh,
29:21
Speaker 1: he gets a pair as well. That is Brandon Lender
29:27
Speaker 1: today And there you have his cleats just Particular Cancer
29:31

30:23
Speaker 1: I don't know if they'll have that at this one, Bucky,
30:25
Speaker 1: but why not, I mean, I don't know. I mean
30:30
Speaker 1: that that pig picking in North Carolina is always special,
30:33
Speaker 1: particularly when you get a little vinegar and within the
30:36
Speaker 1: barbecue a little cole slaw, a little nice bun with that,
30:39
Speaker 1: you know, maybe get some French fries and a nice
30:42
Speaker 1: little lemonade with that. It's pretty. It's a good day there, Jo,
30:46
Speaker 1: It's funny. Buck they don't even pay us to run
30:50
Speaker 1: that spot. JP just does it on his own. Yeah,
30:51
Speaker 1: that's right, he's so excited about that event. He just
30:55
Speaker 1: JP just loves it. He loves But I understand, understand
30:58
Speaker 1: his roots where he calls for understand why such a
31:00
Speaker 1: big deal it is. It is a big deal. It
31:03
Speaker 1: should be a fun weekend here at the bank. Let's
31:05
Speaker 1: get to social media questions. We've got a few today.
31:07
Speaker 1: Let's start off on the Twitter with Zack Bierman. Realistically,
31:11
Speaker 1: how much can be done in one offseason to make
31:14
Speaker 1: this offense more explosive? M Man, Wow, this may take
31:23
Speaker 1: longer than we can think about. We need a couple
31:26
Speaker 1: of different things. Like speed is a huge part of
31:29
Speaker 1: the equation, So you need more uh explosive playmakers on
31:33
Speaker 1: the perimeter. That means one or two wide receivers. Obviously, Travis,
31:37
Speaker 1: it's the end coming back at running back as a
31:39
Speaker 1: little juice to the equation. But you have to have
31:42
Speaker 1: more speed because the only way that you can generate
31:44
Speaker 1: big plays, you have to have guys that can turn
31:46
Speaker 1: short passes in the big games. You also have to
31:48
Speaker 1: have enough guys that can get past defensive backs and
31:51
Speaker 1: go over the top and then you need to be
31:53
Speaker 1: able to hand it to a running back that can
31:54
Speaker 1: go to distance from anywhere on the field. Those things
31:57
Speaker 1: add an explosive element with lead to big plays with
32:00
Speaker 1: we need more points. Yeah, I think it's a concern.
32:04
Speaker 1: I mean it's I know something that they will heavily,
32:07
Speaker 1: heavily address. E t N has got to come back
32:12
Speaker 1: and be E t N, which with a list. Frank,
32:15
Speaker 1: you know, I have heard nothing to think that he won't,
32:18
Speaker 1: but you still got to see it, and then you
32:21
Speaker 1: know people are listening to get tired of hearing me
32:23
Speaker 1: say it. But wide receiver is a tough spot to
32:26
Speaker 1: fix in one year to the degree that people wanted
32:30
Speaker 1: to be fixed. Because free agent wide receivers, if they're elite,
32:35
Speaker 1: they're using out on the market. There's usually a reason
32:37
Speaker 1: guys are out there, so you can do it, but
32:40
Speaker 1: you better pick the right guy. And then rookie wide
32:44
Speaker 1: receivers again, it's more common now for guys to come
32:48
Speaker 1: in and make quick impact. But it's still a tricky
32:50
Speaker 1: spot to me. Uh, I don't think you'll pick it
32:54
Speaker 1: in the top five. You know, if they're picking in
32:56
Speaker 1: the top five, So you're talking about a second round
32:58
Speaker 1: pick or trading up into the first. It can be done,
33:02
Speaker 1: but you're swinging and you gotta hit it, and it's
33:06
Speaker 1: a it's a it's a curve ball, not a fastball.
33:10
Speaker 1: In the off season. Put it that way. Yes, Next
33:13
Speaker 1: question social media, moving along at Bitty Ross. Do the
33:17
Speaker 1: Jaguars have someone on staff who reviews all the other
33:19
Speaker 1: teams film to steal or imitate plays and other teams
33:23
Speaker 1: have used with success? Also, can or does Trevor ever
33:27
Speaker 1: call an audible? Um? So they asked the first one. Uh. Yeah,
33:36
Speaker 1: Like all the coaches look at the tape, and you
33:38
Speaker 1: have people quality control staff that will look at the
33:40
Speaker 1: film and they will jot down notes and they will
33:42
Speaker 1: be able to kind of pick up on tendencies and
33:44
Speaker 1: patterns and things that have been problematic for the opponent.
33:47
Speaker 1: And so naturally you bring those to the coordinators and
33:50
Speaker 1: you see if that works within the fabric of what
33:52
Speaker 1: you do on both sides of the ball. And so
33:54
Speaker 1: you want to make sure you test your opponent see
33:57
Speaker 1: if they fixed the issues that have given them problems. Uh.
34:00
Speaker 1: As released to Trevor and audibles and those things. I
34:03
Speaker 1: would like to think that it's probably reasonable to expect
34:05
Speaker 1: him to have some freedom at the line of scrimmage.
34:08
Speaker 1: But a lot of times when you have a young quarterback,
34:11
Speaker 1: sometimes you limit how many changes they can make at
34:14
Speaker 1: the line until they've kind of proven to you that
34:17
Speaker 1: they can handle all the responsibilities of setting the protection,
34:20
Speaker 1: identifying to Mike, making sure that you give people in
34:23
Speaker 1: and out the wholdle the right way, looking at the
34:25
Speaker 1: play clock. It's a lot going on, so sometimes you
34:28
Speaker 1: try to restrict those things so your quarterback can play
34:31
Speaker 1: fast because he doesn't have as much mental clutter. Yeah,
34:35
Speaker 1: coaches are always trying to draw from very thing in
34:38
Speaker 1: the league, So I don't think it's necessarily one guy
34:41
Speaker 1: on staff. And this guy's question sort of imply there's
34:44
Speaker 1: one guy coming through all the film, and right now
34:47
Speaker 1: you have forty Niners did exactly this. It's not really
34:50
Speaker 1: that you just sort of watch the league. I I
34:53
Speaker 1: agree with Bucky. I'm sure Trevor there are certain things
34:58
Speaker 1: during each play that I'm sure he can check too.
35:02
Speaker 1: Very limited. Hey, if it's this, do this. What he
35:07
Speaker 1: doesn't have I'm sure at this point is the entire
35:10
Speaker 1: command of the playbook to call any play out of anything.
35:14
Speaker 1: It's more go to the line in this situation with
35:17
Speaker 1: two plays, if this passes their check to a run,
35:21
Speaker 1: all right, one more question social media Twitter today the
35:25
Speaker 1: underscore Jacks fan six one five. Are we all ready
35:28
Speaker 1: to see an experience Jalen Ramsey this weekend ps run Robinson?
35:35
Speaker 1: Well ready or not? But yeah, here it comes. I mean,
35:38
Speaker 1: look ready that us going is gonna come. He's gonna
35:40
Speaker 1: be jacked up. He's gonna be out of his mind.
35:42
Speaker 1: He's gonna obviously want to play at a high level
35:44
Speaker 1: because of this old team. I think all of us
35:46
Speaker 1: have a little juice. I mean I think I can.
35:49
Speaker 1: I guess I would equate this to Jalen Ramseys the
35:51
Speaker 1: jilted UH partner who now gets to see his ex
35:55
Speaker 1: all over again. And so he's gonna be a little
35:57
Speaker 1: wrapped up. He's gonna be um ready to let the
36:00
Speaker 1: Jaguars know what they're missing. And so we'll see what
36:03
Speaker 1: it looks like. But I think at the end of
36:05
Speaker 1: the day, after it's kicked off and after we get
36:06
Speaker 1: through the first handful of place, look he goes. It
36:09
Speaker 1: comes down to playing football. And so if the Jaguars
36:11
Speaker 1: executing do the things that they're supposed to do they
36:14
Speaker 1: can walk away with a win. But Jenn Ramsey is
36:16
Speaker 1: gonna be Jalen Ramsey whether we like it or not.
36:19
Speaker 1: We just gotta settle in and enjoy the experience. And again,
36:22
Speaker 1: I'll go back to this, what's he mad about? He
36:25
Speaker 1: got what he wanted, he wanted to be traded, he
36:26
Speaker 1: got out of it. Still, it doesn't worry like that.
36:30
Speaker 1: That's a very rational approach, Like I understand that, But
36:38
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. It's always it's always that you ask
36:42
Speaker 1: any player you disrespected, no one believed in me, all
36:46
Speaker 1: that other stuff, all the underdog stuff. I mean, it's
36:49
Speaker 1: Jalen Ramsey's on Rocky Ball Ball Movie. That's what he's
36:51
Speaker 1: That's what he's gonna have this weekend. He's gonna feel
36:54
Speaker 1: like he's the underdog. So he's probably somewhere in the
36:56
Speaker 1: meat locker just pounding the way of the meat getting ready.
36:59
Speaker 1: I just hope he's and have to play, Yeah, I mean,
37:01
Speaker 1: that's a good way to never know. Those backs bath
37:04
Speaker 1: Sometimes I just hope he's healthy enough to play. Yeah.
37:11
Speaker 1: That'll do it for social media questions today, one final
37:14
Speaker 1: time out, Our final thoughts. We've had a lot of
37:16
Speaker 1: them already. It's huddled up with Bucky Brooks on the
37:19
Speaker 1: Jaguars Digital Network, and the head coaching carousel is splitting
37:29
Speaker 1: faster really than ever. Right now, some high profile schools
37:34
Speaker 1: have changed coaches in the last forty eight hours, and
37:37
Speaker 1: the Urban Meyer name pops up right or wrong. And
37:41
Speaker 1: in these times it feels like is that flattering? Is
37:44
Speaker 1: it annoying? Is it distracting? What are your reactions when
37:48
Speaker 1: you see your name on these lists. I spent so
37:51
Speaker 1: long in college football that, um, you're talking about some
37:54
Speaker 1: great places. So when I start getting text messages or
37:58
Speaker 1: phone calls, you know, of course it's flattery, and you
38:00
Speaker 1: know the respect I have for um that profession. But
38:04
Speaker 1: I have no interest. I I have a great relationship
38:08
Speaker 1: with the owner of the Jacksonville Jaguars. I love the
38:10
Speaker 1: nine oh four area and feel committed to these players.
38:13
Speaker 1: And I mean this is this Losing stuff will kill you.
38:16
Speaker 1: I mean it will kill you. But uh, we're all
38:19
Speaker 1: committed here to turn this thing. And I speak on
38:21
Speaker 1: behalf of our players, of our coaching staff, and we
38:24
Speaker 1: are going to grind and work and work. And you
38:26
Speaker 1: know the vision of a full bank t I a
38:28
Speaker 1: bank stadium and you know, a high flying offense and
38:32
Speaker 1: all that we have the quarterback, we have to just
38:34
Speaker 1: keep building and getting better. That's Urban Meyer, of course,
38:38
Speaker 1: on the Urban Meyer Show yesterday and Welcome Back and
38:41
Speaker 1: tundle up with Bucky Brooks, JP Shadrick, John Osier and
38:44
Speaker 1: NFL Network analyst Bucky Brooks. I have no interest, he says,
38:48
Speaker 1: in the college stuff, and he's committed to Jacksonville. Buck.
38:52
Speaker 1: He just heard it on on the show yesterday, and
38:56
Speaker 1: you know all that's going on. His name was was
38:58
Speaker 1: thrown around all day yesterday day on Twitter. But no more, no,
39:03
Speaker 1: no more, Okay. So he's committed to the job that
39:05
Speaker 1: he has in Jacksonville and he wants to build the program.
39:08
Speaker 1: And so now it's about taking the next steps to
39:11
Speaker 1: in the rebuilding process. Obviously this year hasn't gone according
39:14
Speaker 1: to script, and so it's about trying to evaluate what
39:17
Speaker 1: went wrong, how it can be better, and how this
39:19
Speaker 1: team and franchise can move forward and get the results
39:22
Speaker 1: that everyone in Jacksonville wants. And so if that's his focus,
39:25
Speaker 1: then look we have to take him at his word
39:27
Speaker 1: and kind of move on. Yeah, moving ahead, John, I've
39:30
Speaker 1: I'm asked all the time because with her. You get
39:32
Speaker 1: questions all the time, we'll leave for college. Will he
39:34
Speaker 1: leave an any capacity with a two and nine record?
39:37
Speaker 1: I got questions all the time, will he be back
39:38
Speaker 1: next year? I've seen nothing to indicate that he won't
39:42
Speaker 1: be the head coach or next year. You just said
39:45
Speaker 1: right in any capacity. So I but urban Meyer, whenever
39:51
Speaker 1: a great college job opens up, I'm sure it will happen.
39:54
Speaker 1: After the college football season, something will open up and
39:58
Speaker 1: they'll address it. Because he's one of the greatest college
40:00
Speaker 1: coaches of all time. That's what you get when you
40:02
Speaker 1: hireban Meyer. You're gonna get that sort of rumor all
40:04
Speaker 1: the time. But I have no reason to think that
40:07
Speaker 1: he's ever gonna come out of it. Bucky, what's your
40:09
Speaker 1: feel on Sunday at so Far Stadium Rams hosting the Jaguars. No, look, man,
40:16
Speaker 1: it all depends on which version of the Jaguars show up.
40:18
Speaker 1: The jaguarshap ready to eliminate the mistakes and the turnovers
40:22
Speaker 1: and the things that have played to play the last
40:24
Speaker 1: three games. Then this can be a game that goes
40:26
Speaker 1: into the fourth quarter and Jaguars can win it. But
40:28
Speaker 1: if they're gonna turn over the ball and jump off
40:30
Speaker 1: size and have a bunch of penalties, then they can
40:32
Speaker 1: get the doors blown off. So a lot of it
40:34
Speaker 1: depends on what shows up, which team shows up in white.
40:39
Speaker 1: I mean, the good version of the Jaguars shows up today,
40:41
Speaker 1: it should be a competitive game. John, very true. I
40:44
Speaker 1: mean if a good version shows up. But this is
40:47
Speaker 1: a team that's trailed by double digits to night, have
40:50
Speaker 1: eleven games this year, so the good version has to
40:53
Speaker 1: show up before you believe it's gonna show up. So
40:55
Speaker 1: I hope it does. And you've got a score points.
40:58
Speaker 1: Jaguars are among the worst in the league and scoring
41:01
Speaker 1: this year, and had fourteen last week, too little, too
41:05
Speaker 1: late in a losing effort to the Falcons. Bucky, you
41:07
Speaker 1: have a good week. We'll talk to you down the
41:10
Speaker 1: down the line here. Hey see Sunday, Buck, Hey see
