  Speaker 2: And it's always good to watch film after a win. Coach,
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: How are you the best?
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: I'm terrific And as you said, celebrating a winning watching
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: film makes it a lot better.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: What's the best thing that stood out about the performance
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: last week?
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: I think a lot stood out, you know. I was like,
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: I mean, they're really the first drive of the game,
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: you know, when the head coach liketed to take the
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: ball and then move the ball like they did, go
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: for it on fourth and.
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: One with their own thirty at.
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: Their own thirty seven yard line, mixed it up in
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: terms of tempo, used cadence to get him to draw
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: off sides, mix the run in the pass. I mean,
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: I was very impressed. Went down and scored points, and
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: that's what you want to do in the first drive
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: of the games. That kind of set the tone for
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: the rest of the game. At offensive line protected the quarterback, well,
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: ran the ball, well, defense comes up with three takeaways.
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: Jaguars win.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: Beautiful game. I mean, it really was a beautiful game.
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: And what really impressed me was that, you know, we've
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: heard Liam Cohen talking about how that he wants his
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: team to be physical all off season, the need to
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: run the football defensively, they talked about getting takeaways again, communication,
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: cleats in the ground, all of those things happen. And
• 2:30
  Speaker 4: what I appreciate most about this game is that you
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: talk about a head coach speaking it into existence. I mean,
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: to me, that was the most impressive thing, because you know,
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: until you actually play a game, you can't. You know,
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: you get over excited sometimes, but once you see it
• 2:47
  Speaker 4: and it comes to fruition, it's like, hallelujah. They're they're
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: they're playing well, they're playing smart, they're playing tough, they're
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: playing physical. Everything that they talked about wanting to do.
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: And it's not going to be perfect every game, but man,
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: it was a good start.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: Oh Jeff.
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: And the execution when you look at it across the board,
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: I mean, to score the points that they did, as
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: we said before, hold them to ten points. Special teams,
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: I mean, we get you know, everybody's kind of ho
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: home and used to that, but fifty five yard punt average,
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: four field goals on side kick recovery.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: You got to get cam little on those kickoffs, man,
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: I mean, come on, you can kick seventy yards.
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: Can we get a kickoff in the landing zone somewhere
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: right around the five?
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: Let me tell you, I take him any place anywhere,
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: no doubt, you know. So I'm just saying to you
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: when you look at the total effort and the group
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: played hard. And the other thing too on defense, very
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: few explosives. I mean, the one quarterback scrambled for I
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: think plus twenty and that can happen to anybody, especially
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: that guy. They had one run shoe, but I think
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: had a plus twenty run maybe in one pass. I
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: mean that means that there's execution people in the right place.
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: There's no mental errors. Communication was good, great start.
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: I just want to apologize Jill Fortunado for adjusting my
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: microphone in the air.
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: I drove him through the not just him. Sorry, sorry
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: about that.
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: But you know, the the other thing that that I
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: would mention is that the defense I think really came
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: together and it wasn't perfect. You know, it wasn't perfect
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: at all. And here's the reality. Also, Bryce Young and
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: the Carolina Panthers, they're not very good.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: They're not They're not very good.
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: So I think as a team, you feel good about
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: the win, but if you're being real, you're saying, well,
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: you know what, that was good, wasn't great?
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: This week? That performance that we just had probably is not.
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: Gonna be good enough to win. So let's get back
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: to work. Let's fix some of the problems that we had.
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: Because you know what, Bryce Young Andrew he he ain't
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: Joe Burrow the whole different world this week when it
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: comes to level of competition.
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: I'm with you in the first game, though, you know,
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: it's it's a lot about us, meaning your team, and
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: no matter who you're playing. Now again there's different levels
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: of up competition from teams. But I was impressed with
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: again the way they handled all about us in terms
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: of the opening effort really was By.
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: The way, do we ever get to the bottom line?
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: Who was in charge of the weather delay?
• 5:19
  Speaker 6: Oh?
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I hit the button? Yeah right, Okay, that was
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: so bad. I mean, I'm gonna guess there was a
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: strike somewhere within the radius. And are you sure about that?
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure about anything.
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: That's part of the thing. We're not sure about anything.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: You think they turned the lights off like the Superdow.
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: I'm just saying is that they may have. Yeah, they
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: may have, but I can tell you this, the fans
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: were sitting there and staying drinking cold beer, going.
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: What's the weather delay for? What's wrong with it? What
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: are we doing?
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: I think the concessions people were excited about it. They
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: got quite a bit of work during that time period.
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: So we'll try to find a win anywhere we can.
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: It's sold a lot of cold beer's that day. Pr

  Speaker 2: This is Jaguars Happy Hour. All right, Coach Stuffner, you've
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: been with the Bengals since twenty nineteen through last season,
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: and you have first hand experience with this group. Give
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: us an idea of the daily mentality of the quarterback
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: Joe Burrow and how he elevates the play around him,
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: his competitive nature and everything that comes with him.
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: Well, you asked me a great question. I'm glad to
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: answer it that this guy is the supreme professional. I mean,
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: his preparation day to day is like I've never seen.
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: I mean not just early and early out, He's got
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: all that, but I'm talking about real decisive study, individual work.
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: You see him in the gym working by himself, working
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: on footwork, working on his hands, working on his throwing motion,
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: all those types of things, and you know he he
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: I'm sure knowing him. He played pretty well on the
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: first out. They didn't play as well in the second half.
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: I know that he's out to improve. He's got a
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: high standard for himself and he's out to get to
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: that and then some and and his leadership, his mature.
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: This guy's a really mature guy. Highly competitive. I mean,
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: I can't find cracks in the guy, and so that
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: rubs off on the rest of the team, especially the offense.
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: And then his connection with Jamar Chase T. Higgins. I mean,
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: they know they can play blindfolded. They know where the
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: ball is going, what the timing is, all those things,
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: and they have a similar work ethic preparation. So I
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: was always impressed watching these guys work week to week
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: in preparation for the opponent. And I think we're going
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: to get their best shot, and that'll be a key
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: for us to be able to withstand that.
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: I don't even think it's fair for Joe to have
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: had Jamar Chase for the time and college, right, and
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: then it is, you know, at five years in Cincinnati.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's like something not even fair.
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: I mean it's Jamar Chase is I mean, is he
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: the best wide receiver in football?
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: Absolutely?
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: I mean conversationally absolutely, Jefferson.
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: I mean those are the two guys, right, I mean
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: in fantasy wise, I mean he's like a point dream, right.
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: I mean I'm not a big fantasy guy.
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: But well, I'm going to tell you this too. Now,
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: I've never seen him catch a ball and the first
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: defender make the tackle. Now, he's always made the first
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: guy miss, And I mean I'm staring it down every
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: time to see if somebody is going to make that
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: play and they haven't done it.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: Kind of built like a running back. I mean, wait, wait.
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: You see his legs he's got. I mean, you know
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: he's got running back.
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: Legt Washington and him stands that You'd be like, man,
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: look at the size of those legs on those wide
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: receivers on I mean, they're big I mean, look, he's
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: less than that at six foot two o five, but
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: Parker is uh oh five ten two four. I mean,
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: so you know, pretty close, you know. But Jamar Chase,
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: I mean, Duff, you're right. I mean, if it's one
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: on one, he's winning. And T Higgins, who most teams
• 9:08
  Speaker 4: would have as a number one, is a number two.
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: There, yeah, which is unbelievable. Let me tell you about
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: him too. He will go up and get it now
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: and fight for it. I mean, he's balls in the
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: air and it's close, he's coming down with it. He
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: you know, he had a scholarship to play basketball at Louisville,
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: you know, coming out of coming out of high school.
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: So I mean he's a legit superb athlete. And both
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: of them great, great kids.
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: So you got one guy last week who was like
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: a volleyball slash football player and Mill and now this
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: week he got a basketball slash football player and T
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: Higgins who is fantastic. And by the way, those two
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: guys just aren't it. I mean, they got a couple
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: of good tight ends as well. The back is pretty solid,
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: but I will say that the weakness with the Bengals is,
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: in my opinion, is that they have a coach who
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: has a pass all the time mentality, and then they're
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: not particularly strong upfront.
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: You're on it and what it's interesting because the past
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: mentality for Zach he opened the game trying to run
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: the ball. I mean in the first fifteen when you
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: look at it without penalties involved, shoot, it was about
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: nine to six run to pass in the whole first half.
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: He tried to run it like that. In fact, when
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: you look at their total plays, it was fifty to
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: fifty run to pass, I think twenty three to twenty
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: three in the game.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: What are you doing?
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: The second half, tried to run it again, but then
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: struggles started to throw it and what happened in the
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: second half, so it was kind of a tail to
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: two halves. They scored touchdowns on two of the first
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: three drives, so they're kind of rolling their film pretty
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: good for themselves. Second half, they came out, they struggled
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: on early downs, so they got behind, they got in
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: I mean, they really did move the ball lick. I mean,
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: I think the stats were something like seven yards and
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: three points. Well, you know they they're running. Actually Chase
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: Brown in the second half in terms of running the football.
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: He wound up being nine carries for zero yards. They
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: got into four minute late in the game, one twenty
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: four left in the game, four minute, thirteen personnel, three
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: tight ends, one back, trying to control the ball minus five,
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: minus three, minus six.
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: Couldn't run it a lick.
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: So they finished with a two point zero average for
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: the game, you know, only some forty yards. So it
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: was certainly a point of emphasis for him. They're gonna
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: they're gonna need to do that against the Jaguars, try
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: to get balanced in their attack, but they struggled. Like
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: Jeff beIN.
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: Said, that's it's gonna be an interesting game. And it's
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: the opener in Cincinnati. You know that Cincinnati finally won
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: an opener. Was the last time that happened.
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: Before I was there, before I was there the last time,
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: just so you know it. And there's another caveat So
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: they got that muckle off monkey off their bat. But
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: this current team, Coach Taylor and the rest of them,
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: show Burrow, they haven't won the second game of the
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: season ever in the last six years, so there's a
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: there's a bit of pressure there. And this is gonna
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: be an all orange game. They've got all the orange.
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: You can imagine, it looked like a big pumpkin out there.
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: And he's opened an orange is what they're hoping.
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: An orange. And he's called for the fans to come
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: out and get there early. So it's it's gonna be
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: a it's gonna be a great challenge for us.
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: Talk about a hostile environment. Man, there you go, oh,
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: and they're hot and going yeah. And I apologize, coach,
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: I forgot about your earlier stint in Cincinnati from ninety
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: seven to two. I left that out of your intro.
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: It's not an issue.
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: I don't there's no problem at all, two different Nobody
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: gives a hoot about that anyway.
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: That's well, what they do give a hoot about is
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: how as a defensive mind coach you would attack and
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: defend against this group. Where do you focus, where do
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: you pressure? Do you pressure Burrow? And how do you
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: cover the receivers?
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: Well, you know, if you can get thirteen guys on
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: the field, that'd be a good start. But we wouldn't
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: be able to do that. But I think that based
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: on Jaguars and our defense, I think if Anthony tries
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: to get as much as he can out of rushing four,
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: maybe occasionally five, but try to rush four, mix in
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: blitz where he can. Joe seen everything, now, can you
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: still distract him? Yeah, they've got to try to distract him.
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: But again, don't let the disguise lead to our demise
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: in terms of the play. So with you know, it's
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: going to be a big game for our guys up front,
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: but are up I think our guys up front are
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: up for the challenge. And and and to be frank, Cincinnati,
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: I mean has struggled in the pass and protecting Joe.
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: He's got the most hits in the league I think.
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: In his career in seventy games play.
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: Well, so he's hit as anybody. Yes, okay, now, and
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: then they came against Cleveland in the fourth quarter, I
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: think it was three straight snaps in a row.
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: He got sacked.
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: So that's in everybody's head and mind right now. And
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: they're going to pressure his face.
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: The name Miles Garrett too, that they face is pretty good. Yeah,
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: he's pretty good.
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: But we got Walker and Josh you know those guys
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: are pretty good too. Now and seeing Smooth come in
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: and get a sack and a batter pass, so uh,
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: and you know our way Anthony brought other people off
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: the corner and up inside. So there's a lot for
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: them to look.
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: At right now.
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: But if they can get pressure out of four men,
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: rush as far as that's concerned, and then focus in
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: on not getting carried away, but focusing on coverage, mixing
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: some man and zone as far as that's concerned, you
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: know that'll be a key as we move forward.
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: I thought one of the really encouraging things in this
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: past game, which I think gives you a little bit
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: of confidence going into this game. Last year we saw
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: an incredible number of explosives that the Jaguars defense allowed.
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: There was a lot of miscommunication and be a nice
• 14:34
  Speaker 4: way to put it in the back end. And this
• 14:37
  Speaker 4: past game, I thought that Dewey, wingerd and Eric Murray
• 14:41
  Speaker 4: played really well. They really calm things down back there
• 14:45
  Speaker 4: compared to last year, and that's going to help going
• 14:49
  Speaker 4: against a team like Jamar Chase and T Higgins on
• 14:53
  Speaker 4: that roster, just because you know that they're an explosive
• 14:56
  Speaker 4: play waiting to happen, and explosive plays if you look
• 14:59
  Speaker 4: at the numbers analytics of it, explosive plays are what
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: leads to points and if you can minimize the explosive
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: plays with the back end and your safeties and the
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: communication and being on the same page, then you got
• 15:13
  Speaker 4: a chance. If if you come out and you play
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: like this Jaguars defense did last year, and you have
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: breakdowns and you have miscommunications and you allow explosive plays,
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: it's gonna be a tough game even have a chance in.
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: So the first game again gives you a little bit
• 15:31
  Speaker 4: of confidence that they can carry that into Week two
• 15:33
  Speaker 4: against Cincinnati.
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: All right, guys, let's come back and we'll flip it around,
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: coach and take a look at your old personnel when
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: Cincinnati that you've had the last few years on the
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: defensive side, and see how the Jaguars offense could fare
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: this week. Don't miss your chance to score an exclusive
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: Brian Thomas Junior bibblehead and or ticket to see the
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: Jags take on the Chargers Colt Sport Jets at the
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: Bank one bobblehead with every ticket, get yours at Jaguars
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: dot com, slash bobblehead or called nine oh four six
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: three two thousand. This is Jaguars happy hour.
• 16:14
  Speaker 6: Getting their hands on some passes and getting some turnovers.
• 16:18
  Speaker 6: Those were big and the right spot at the right time.
• 16:20
  Speaker 6: Guys making plays kind of change the game. Obviously, you know,
• 16:24
  Speaker 6: with Hendrickson, just always have to know where he's at.
• 16:27
  Speaker 6: And he's a great player, has proven himself in this
• 16:29
  Speaker 6: league time and time again, so give him his respect.
• 16:32
  Speaker 6: Obviously we're with our preparation and just knowing where he's at.
• 16:36
  Speaker 6: He's a really good player and you know, I have
• 16:37
  Speaker 6: to take care of him, So that's obviously something there.
• 16:40
  Speaker 6: And just the defense was flying around. I think made
• 16:42
  Speaker 6: a lot of plays, did a nice job in the
• 16:45
  Speaker 6: run game, you know, really, like I said, creating turnovers
• 16:49
  Speaker 6: in the back end, that's the name of the game,
• 16:50
  Speaker 6: and they created a couple of them. So it's a
• 16:53
  Speaker 6: good defense that's flying around. A few other guys have
• 16:54
  Speaker 6: been there for a while, a bunch of the leaders
• 16:56
  Speaker 6: on that defense.
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence, Shaguars quarterback, discussing the Bengals defensive scheme and personnel.

• 17:30
  Speaker 3: I though, you know, I never have. I've heard about it.
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: I've heard numerous stories, but I've never had a pleasure
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: to be there in person.
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: Okay, don't have to work on that one day. I
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: mean maybe me and Deuff will go at the same time.
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: I haven't been there yet either. You haven't been there
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: not I have not really no, No.
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: I mean I'd love to go there for the watch party,
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: but I'll be You're kind of busy.
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: I'll be watching.
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you'll be pretty busy watching in person.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: Let's get into this Bengals defense. Of course, as we mentioned,
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: the senior defensive assistant for the Bengals since twenty nineth
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: team through last season. You know this group and this
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: personnel very well. I mean it's got to begin with
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: Hendrickson up front, right, He's the he's the guy.
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: Well, he's a dominant player and beat to lead the
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: league in the last two seasons in terms of sacks
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: and be a steady He's been a four straight season
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: Pro Bowl player. So very competitive guy, great quickness, great power,
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: better against the run than you think. He's a game
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: wrecker for him. So I mean again, he got a
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: sack last week against Cleveland, so they clearly have to
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: be and I know they are aware of him. But
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: that defensive front played well last week. You know, they
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: stopped a pretty good running attack that Cleveland's had annually.
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: I don't know if there's good now as they used
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: to be without Chubb being that group that as far
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: as the running game, but they gave up only a
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: couple of yards of carry in the run game, and
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: that'll be a factor in this game. Bj Hill had
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: a real productive game for him, always plays well, good
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: athlete inside, had a sack in the game. He and
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: Hendrickson both and then Slayton they got from Green Bay,
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: another kind of space eater in that had been with
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: a new line coach Montgomery and the staff. So linebacker
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: Logan Wilson very active. He shooting the game. He had
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: I think I don't know, he had about eight or
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: nine hits in the game and it's a couple of
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: pass defenses, and so.
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: The good of group.
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: The secondary also stood you know, stood out in the game.
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: Jordan Battle had twelve hits in the game. Now, when
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: your safety's making a lot of hits, sometimes that's got
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: a good sign. That's not a good sign. However, he
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: made a key you know, interception in the second half,
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: as did DJ Turner, which really was tailtale of the game.
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: We're number one. The Jaguars are number one in the
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: league right now in takeaway three with three. The Jaguars
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: are number two with two. Both had winning games. One
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: of the components to winning is winning that takeaway battle,
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: and both those teams did that. So it's a good
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: defensive group. Al Golden a very bright guy or having
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: well organized he'll he'll mix it up in terms of coverage,
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: you know. So we'll see they got better in the
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: second half. Started out shaky, got better in the second half.
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 20:02
  Speaker 4: There's one guy on their defense though, that I think
• 20:05
  Speaker 4: makes offensive coordinators change the way they do business, and
• 20:09
  Speaker 4: that's Trey Henderson. I don't think anybody else on that
• 20:12
  Speaker 4: roster makes him scared whatsoever. But Trey Henderson, you better,
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: you better have a game plan that is ready to
• 20:19
  Speaker 4: deal with number ninety one.
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: How do you do it?
• 20:23
  Speaker 4: You introduce one of your running backs to his ribs
• 20:27
  Speaker 4: quite a few times, you have tight ends lining up
• 20:31
  Speaker 4: on that side to chip them before they leave. You
• 20:33
  Speaker 4: slide protect to them so that the tackle can overseet
• 20:37
  Speaker 4: knowing that he's got the guard coming out as inside help.
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: But I got a feeling that thirty six is going
• 20:43
  Speaker 4: to introduce himself to ninety one. Thirty six is Laquinn
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: Allen Junior, who, by the way, probably is very aware
• 20:52
  Speaker 4: about number ninety one, and we'll be more than happy
• 20:57
  Speaker 4: to have a rib sandwich on the way out to
• 20:59
  Speaker 4: the back.
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: I loved in the locker room earlier this week. They
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: asked him, Hey, what you've been in some altercations and
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: training camp. He's like, why what is that? He's like,
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: I mean it's a violent game. I play the game violently,
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: like I'm not going to back down, Like that's how
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: I play.
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: And I love that absolutely. And I think Jeff hit
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: it on those. That's going to be a great match
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: up to watch you. Anything you can do to frustrate
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: the rush, okay, and whether it be like coach like
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: Jeff said in terms of tight end saying in the
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: block or chipping or having the backs in there to block.
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: That's going to help in a big, big way. And
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: so if you can get into his head a little bit,
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: just like we try to affect the quarterback, if you
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: can affect the rush, those are all positive things.
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: I've seen some great pass rushers.
• 21:42
  Speaker 4: When you send a running back after their ribs early
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: in the game, it changes how fast there get off
• 21:49
  Speaker 4: is and how aggressive they are up the field. I mean,
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: it's just it's it's human nature. And if I get
• 21:55
  Speaker 4: smoked early in the game, I'm looking for thirty six again,
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: you know, And I hope that he hits him early
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: because that'll slow him down. Because here's the problem. He's
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: a great player, and your weakest link. He's still solid player,
• 22:11
  Speaker 4: but your weakest link on that offensive line is Walker.
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: Little Walker Tot has trouble at times on that outside
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: rush giving up the edge. That's Trey Henderson's best move
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: is he knocks the hands down and then he gets
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: around the edge and he's got great hips to shorten
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: that corner to make it much faster than the average
• 22:32
  Speaker 4: human being that pass rushes. I watch him and I
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: got great appreciation for the moves that he has and
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: how he does it. So you've got to help seventy
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: two in this ball game, and if you don't, you're
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: going to regret it.
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: Tough question. Can you run at him? How is he
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: in the run game?
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: Defensively, JP, He's pretty good now he's not all passing,
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: no run. I mean he can hold the edge and
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: set it down. Now here's going to be a key
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: thing too.
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: Strange.
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: I watched Strange last week and the way he caught
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: the ball well did a great job, but also blocked
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: his tail off. He made those ends aware of who
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: he is and what he's all about in terms of
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: the way he blocked in the running game, whether it
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: be at the point of attack or on what we
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: call split zone play. He comes back and he got
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: into the legs thos guys. So I guarantee you that
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: Trey right now is aware of our tied end in
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: terms of how he blocks and what factory he'll be
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: in the run game. And then the other thing I
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: think we got to be aware of is that they've
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: got to get something out of the Stewart. This rookie
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: that came out and he had some rushes that were
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: plus in the in the game. No, no registered statistics.
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: But Jamar Stewart correct umber number ninety seven, good length,
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: good athlete. Uh you know he Joseph Osai. They'll rotate
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: Miles Murphy and another. They've gotten lengthd in speed out there.
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: They've got a group similar to ours and today don't
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: just have one main dog. Well Hendrickson is that guy,
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: but they've got a couple other guys that are going
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: to be trying to be factors.
• 23:54
  Speaker 4: Also, Shamar Stewart first round pick Texas A and M
• 23:58
  Speaker 4: was kind of one of the longest hold I think
• 24:00
  Speaker 4: if in fact the longest holdout in the first round,
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: not second round, because there was one in Cleveland, the
• 24:06
  Speaker 4: running back that that was to hold out because of
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: some off the field stuff. But Schmartster a great athlete.
• 24:13
  Speaker 4: Is he a polished pass rusher yet? No, he's not
• 24:16
  Speaker 4: there yet. But he runs well, moves well. Was impressive
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: watching him on film. But again, ninety one is the man.
• 24:25
  Speaker 4: I mean, that's it. And you've got You've got some
• 24:29
  Speaker 4: corners in the Bengals back end that I think are
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: I don't want to say their suspect, but they're not great.
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: They get able? Is that a good word for Well?
• 24:37
  Speaker 4: Look, I think your guy, your guys are better than theirs.
• 24:40
  Speaker 4: So does your quarterback? Can he get him the ball?
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: So?
• 24:44
  Speaker 4: Can he find him? Can he be accurate? Is he
• 24:46
  Speaker 4: going to have the time to do that? Those are
• 24:48
  Speaker 4: all factors in that. But if you can get your
• 24:51
  Speaker 4: wide receivers Brian Thomas Junior, Diamie Brown, Parker Washington and BTJ,
• 24:58
  Speaker 4: I mean all those guys, if you can Travis Hunter,
• 25:01
  Speaker 4: if you can get them on those corners, I think
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: you can got a chance to win. But part of
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: that is keeping them off balance. I mean, the Jaguars
• 25:08
  Speaker 4: is going to be built on balance, and if they
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: have balance, then it's gonna make it easier to pass.
• 25:12
  Speaker 4: And you got to find a way to block ninety one,
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: all right.
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: Front of the moments with the coach Mark Duffner and
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: studio with his former Jags linebackers coach, former Bengals assistant.
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: Two different stents there. You know, last week, coach, we
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: asked for three keys to the game. You know, I
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: went back and watched the film and got the feedback
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: and the people said, hey, we want more out of
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: duff We want we don't want just three keys. We
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: need like a whole handful. Get us. Just don't go
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: coughland on us to have one hundred five keys to.
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: It was like thirty five, you know last Jeffs tell.
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: Me it was thirty five keys to victory.
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: Duff, I think first and foremost right now that the
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: ball control offense, Uh, we've we've got to run the football,
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: and right now we run it as good as anybody
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: in the NFL. I think E ten was second in
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: the league and rushing behind Henry, So that's him. Dig
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: out a great play by the line and by the running.
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: But get manageable downs. They've got to win first down
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: with running the ball and play action. Have manageable downs.
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: So now we can make things eat on the lesser
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: downs as far as that's concerned, take the crowd out
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: of it. But by doing that, you've got to be
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: able to tackle Jamar Chase. I mean, he's been a
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: nemesis for every opponent that that's lined up against him.
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: That's going to be critical there when the takeaway battle
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: and how do you do that well like we did
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: last week, you get three or three like you did,
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: you get four down stops and you protect the football,
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: so that's going to be a component for him, and
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: I think, you know, no unforced errors, I mean, shoot,
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: eliminate the explosive plays. They did that last week. Jeff
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: talked about it. I mentioned it earlier there. So if
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: we can affect the quarterback a little bit in terms
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: of our rush and coverage, working together, finish plays, our
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: best players make their best plays, you know, play their
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: best game. As far as that's concerned, I think we're
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: in position to win this game. Communication will be a
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: big part of what we do, and they did a
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: good job. Let's keeping on be consistent.
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: And see how they handle some adversity because it could
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: be not just a lightning delay this time, it could
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: be a Jamar Chayes touchdown.
• 27:07
  Speaker 4: Yeah, here's a question for you, Duff. Does lightning delay,
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: weather delay? Does that qualify as adversity in football?
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: I think it qualifies. I think it's I think you've
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: got to be able to respond to anything that shows up.
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: It's going to be a warm gaming Cincinnati and they're
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: gonna have to be ready for that.
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: Code Coach Code said this, So, yeah, it was more
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: of a glitch. That's why.
• 27:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah, not necessarily, but I mean, it's still something the
• 27:30
  Speaker 4: team had to deal with. They had to deal with
• 27:32
  Speaker 4: and it came out and then they kind of picked
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: up where they left off, which was nice to see
• 27:37
  Speaker 4: how they finished that first half.
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: Duff, great stuff is always thank you for the insight. Well,
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: let's do it again next week before another home game.
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: Well, I'm looking forward to it. It's a pleasure to
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: be with you guys.

  Speaker 7: accurate thrower, and just a tough guy. You know.

• 28:44
  Speaker 7: get into from protection perspective and where the wall should go.

• 30:30
  Speaker 2: Anywhere you download pots it's free, free website, left free kai. Yes,
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: it's nice after a win, and so it felt to me.
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: And this felt like just another business week this week.
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: There's not like the celebration and fireworks and all these things. Oh,
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: they want a game, No, this is supposed to It's
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: a business like approach, I think coming out of the
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: game and even in the locker room this week, looking
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: ahead to what can be a really good team in Cincinnati.
• 30:58
  Speaker 5: That's a good thing. You beat a team that you
• 31:00
  Speaker 5: should beat. You didn't play your best football, and that's
• 31:02
  Speaker 5: been addressed throughout the time. Yes, happy to get a win,
• 31:05
  Speaker 5: found a way to win more importantly, but you're not
• 31:08
  Speaker 5: just excited to win anymore. This is something where you're
• 31:10
  Speaker 5: trying to build this team. They've come in, they've tried
• 31:13
  Speaker 5: to lay the foundation of what they want this team
• 31:16
  Speaker 5: to look like. They talked about it a lot in
• 31:17
  Speaker 5: the training camp, and we saw a lot of it
• 31:19
  Speaker 5: in action. Physicality, toughness, all the stuff they wanted to
• 31:22
  Speaker 5: focus on in that first game. It's got to keep going.
• 31:24
  Speaker 5: You can't just talk about it one week and then
• 31:26
  Speaker 5: oh it works, now we're better. That's not how that works, right.
• 31:29
  Speaker 5: This team was not very good last year. There was
• 31:31
  Speaker 5: a lot of things that they had to change. So
• 31:33
  Speaker 5: it's exciting to see people care about winning but also
• 31:36
  Speaker 5: not lingering on that moving forward, focusing on the next challenge.
• 31:42
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's nice. No, I think it's fantastic. And you
• 31:45
  Speaker 4: know the best part is is that this fan base
• 31:48
  Speaker 4: has I think been in this kind of wait and
• 31:50
  Speaker 4: see mode. A lot of them are look, a lot
• 31:54
  Speaker 4: of fans came out, but then there's some that are like.
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: You know what I want to see it? Well, guess
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: what you saw it.
• 32:02
  Speaker 4: And what I appreciate the most is that the way
• 32:05
  Speaker 4: they've talked about being is the way they came out
• 32:08
  Speaker 4: and played. And to me, that's I think is a
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: strong sign of where this team is at, where this
• 32:14
  Speaker 4: organization is at. The one thing that I will say,
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: to be perfectly honest, quarterbacks got to play better if
• 32:22
  Speaker 4: you're gonna beat Joe Burrow. This week in Cincinnati, quarterbacks
• 32:25
  Speaker 4: got to play better, because if that's Joe Burrow in
• 32:28
  Speaker 4: that game against against Carolina, I think you might have
• 32:32
  Speaker 4: a hard time. Trevor's got to be better this week.
• 32:34
  Speaker 4: He left a lot of things out there on the table. Now,
• 32:36
  Speaker 4: there were some good things too that he did. And
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: the main thing I would say that he did well
• 32:41
  Speaker 4: was that he had commanded the offense, the operation of
• 32:44
  Speaker 4: the offense, all of that was clean, but some of
• 32:47
  Speaker 4: the execution, the plays that were there that were left
• 32:50
  Speaker 4: on the table, he's got to make them if they're
• 32:53
  Speaker 4: going to beat a team and a quarterback like Joe
• 32:55
  Speaker 4: Burrow and Bucky Brooks was really praising that part of
• 33:00
  Speaker 4: his game, the organization, the operation of the game plan
• 33:05
  Speaker 4: and everything and in a first time out full go
• 33:07
  Speaker 4: at a new offense.
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: That was what Bucky really liked.
• 33:10
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 33:11
  Speaker 4: The other thing too, I liked is a cadence. He
• 33:14
  Speaker 4: used cadence on that one Brenton strange thing. I'm like,
• 33:17
  Speaker 4: all right, you know.
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: I mean that's good.
• 33:19
  Speaker 4: I mean, it's it shows because what that does is
• 33:23
  Speaker 4: it actually shows that he's comfortable knowing the offense to
• 33:26
  Speaker 4: the point that he's thinking above and beyond just the
• 33:29
  Speaker 4: execution of the play and calling the play.
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: He's going above that.
• 33:34
  Speaker 4: So if you're a quarterback and you're going with cadence,
• 33:37
  Speaker 4: which for a lot of people, they what do you
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: mean by cadence? When Trevor used his voice inflection to
• 33:42
  Speaker 4: draw the Carolina Panthers off side, try to do it
• 33:44
  Speaker 4: which is.
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: Called hard count. So he comes to lines good, pretty said,
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: So he's trying to draw him. All sides were that good.
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: I jumped okay, and and it worked.
• 33:55
  Speaker 4: And so it was a free play, which allows a
• 33:57
  Speaker 4: quarterback to play essentially because he knows that I've got
• 34:01
  Speaker 4: him off side, so I can do whatever I want
• 34:04
  Speaker 4: with the ball. But I mean, just to me, it's
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: it's just an example of showing that Trevor is in
• 34:09
  Speaker 4: command of the offense because he's confident in the offense
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: enough to go a little extra and to lay out
• 34:16
  Speaker 4: a little bit of cadence for that particular play.
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: So I thought that was a real good sign. It's
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: a good thing Kyle Stevens with us in studio, and
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: you know, they still got to get that connection. With
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: Brian Thomas Junior going with seven targets one catch in
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: the game, he did have the end a round handoff
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: touchdown run, which was good to see. And you know
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: it's early in the season. They're going to keep throwing
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: in the football, right, That's how this is gonna work.
• 34:40
  Speaker 5: I would hope, So obviously it was. I think I
• 34:43
  Speaker 5: was very impressed with the run game. That's amazing. We
• 34:45
  Speaker 5: haven't had, you know, two hundred plus yards in a
• 34:48
  Speaker 5: couple of years, I think it look back, it was
• 34:49
  Speaker 5: like twenty twenty two last time they had over two
• 34:51
  Speaker 5: hundred rushing the Jags, So it's great to see that,
• 34:54
  Speaker 5: and they stuck with that. That's their plan early. You
• 34:55
  Speaker 5: want to be able to run always, but in the
• 34:59
  Speaker 5: NFL and twenty twenty five, you got to be able
• 35:00
  Speaker 5: to air it out a little bit too, so using
• 35:02
  Speaker 5: the run to set up the pass and making the throws.
• 35:05
  Speaker 5: When you have the throw, you know, it's not gonna
• 35:06
  Speaker 5: be all on Trevor's shoulders anymore. But that also puts
• 35:09
  Speaker 5: more pressure on him when he is throwing because he
• 35:12
  Speaker 5: has less opportunities. You know, he's not necessarily thrown at
• 35:14
  Speaker 5: thirty plus times anymore. So now when he has those shows,
• 35:18
  Speaker 5: he's got to make them. And it's your five. It's
• 35:20
  Speaker 5: a new it's another new system. We know that, but
• 35:23
  Speaker 5: progression each week, Jeff right like to see where he
• 35:26
  Speaker 5: was maybe not you know, on the same page, or
• 35:29
  Speaker 5: you know, maybe he's missing throws by a foot or two.
• 35:32
  Speaker 5: Jacon Horn made a great play on that. So I'm
• 35:34
  Speaker 5: not going to necessarily say that was all on him,
• 35:36
  Speaker 5: but I think being more precise when he does have that,
• 35:41
  Speaker 5: And that can be difficult too, because if you don't
• 35:42
  Speaker 5: have as many reps and you're not throwing as much,
• 35:45
  Speaker 5: then you have to be very locked in when you
• 35:47
  Speaker 5: are throwing.
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: The Well, I'm gonna say that that was all on Trevor.
• 35:49
  Speaker 5: Oh okay, Jeff said it, not me.
• 35:51
  Speaker 4: One the reason why is that, you know, if you're
• 35:53
  Speaker 4: going to throw it to Travis, put some arror under it,
• 35:55
  Speaker 4: throw it okay, and then if not, then throw it
• 35:58
  Speaker 4: underneath the Brian Thomas who was wide open.
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 36:01
  Speaker 4: So that's on on Trevor and you know, and and
• 36:04
  Speaker 4: a good thing is is that I believe that he's
• 36:05
  Speaker 4: going to take another step up this next game. I
• 36:08
  Speaker 4: mean the first game, I thought he took a big
• 36:10
  Speaker 4: step and showing the command of the offense, the operation
• 36:13
  Speaker 4: of the offense. We did not see any pre snap
• 36:16
  Speaker 4: Bears with the offense. Whatsoever did we I don't think
• 36:19
  Speaker 4: we had.
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: Any There was like the delay game, but that was
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: because they thought there.
• 36:22
  Speaker 4: Was a review coming and that was well, now that
• 36:25
  Speaker 4: was like an officials wear. They had a problem with
• 36:28
  Speaker 4: the Shane supposedly, and so they didn't restart the play
• 36:31
  Speaker 4: clause about it.
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: So but I mean other than that, it was clean.
• 36:34
  Speaker 4: And so I expect the next game to be another
• 36:37
  Speaker 4: step in the process for him and and and the
• 36:40
  Speaker 4: best part is is that I think he's got a
• 36:42
  Speaker 4: head coach, uh that is holding him accountable, is going
• 36:45
  Speaker 4: to coach him hard. And Trevor, I think is going
• 36:47
  Speaker 4: to take hard coaching. And when I mamed hard coaching,
• 36:50
  Speaker 4: a lot of people say, oh, you mean to meaning no,
• 36:52
  Speaker 4: it just means that you're being honest and uh and
• 36:56
  Speaker 4: and raising the level of expectations on a.
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: Week to week basis. Time now for the Jaguars defensive
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: coverage of the game, presented by GEH Government Employees Health
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: Association Benefits for Federal employees and retirees, We take a
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: look at the Bengals top two receivers, Jamar Chase and
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: t Higgins. Last year, they were a deadly combination. Seventeen
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: hundred yards receiving seventeen touchdowns for Chase led the league
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: in all four categories targets, receptions, yards, and touchdowns. T
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: Higgins had nine to eleven through the receiving and ten
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: touchdowns on his own. He got a huge contract this
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: offseason as well. So it's up to the Jaguars secondary
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: to cover these two. And you know, last week there's
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: a lot of new faces in the back end of
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: the secondary, some salty vets that played big here.
• 37:43
  Speaker 4: Just keep in mind too, that t Higgins numbers there
• 37:45
  Speaker 4: seventy three receptions, nine hundred and eleven yards, and ten touchdowns.
• 37:49
  Speaker 4: He did that in twelve games. Yeah some time, Okay,
• 37:51
  Speaker 4: So a lot of people look down and go, yeah,
• 37:53
  Speaker 4: that's kind of that's okay, Okay, Well if you do
• 37:56
  Speaker 4: that in twelve games, I mean, that's really good. Yeah,
• 38:00
  Speaker 4: you know, and he's an effortless athlete. He's very long,
• 38:05
  Speaker 4: he's got speed, he does a great job with his feet.
• 38:08
  Speaker 4: I mean, this is two challenging guys, and it's going
• 38:11
  Speaker 4: to be also interested to see what kind of role
• 38:13
  Speaker 4: Travis Hunter will have on the defense this week. After
• 38:16
  Speaker 4: only playing like six plays.
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: Last week, I felt like we heard from Travis today
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: outside of the locker room Kai about that and Liam
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: Cohen talked about his numbers on defense could continue to
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: rise here.
• 38:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah, Travis would love to play every play, right, So
• 38:29
  Speaker 5: I think how they're going to utilize him going forward.
• 38:31
  Speaker 5: I don't know if it was necessarily dictated against the
• 38:34
  Speaker 5: Panthers because they were so focused on the runs. So
• 38:36
  Speaker 5: maybe now that it's going to be obviously much more
• 38:39
  Speaker 5: passing involved against the Bengals, we might see him more
• 38:42
  Speaker 5: just in nature of that, but also learning the playbook.
• 38:44
  Speaker 5: How they're going to utilize him. I'm just excited to
• 38:47
  Speaker 5: see Jordan Lewis what he does with that the communication,
• 38:50
  Speaker 5: and I mean all over the defense, but just finally
• 38:53
  Speaker 5: seeing good communication in the back end of the defense
• 38:55
  Speaker 5: is so satisfying. Because I think every week with Jeff,
• 38:59
  Speaker 5: I would just get Jeff would come in to do
• 39:02
  Speaker 5: his film room segments talk about the film. I would
• 39:04
  Speaker 5: get so frustrated with some of the breakdowns. Obviously, all
• 39:07
  Speaker 5: the explosive plays that the secondary allowed over the past
• 39:10
  Speaker 5: couple of years, those are hard to watch and they've
• 39:13
  Speaker 5: you know, they were game game deciders, right like they
• 39:16
  Speaker 5: broke a lot of games open that way. So now
• 39:18
  Speaker 5: to have someone like Jordan Lewis where I know, listen,
• 39:22
  Speaker 5: is Jamar Chase gonna have catches, Yes, Kign's gonna have catches, absolutely,
• 39:26
  Speaker 5: but it's not where I feel like they're always in
• 39:28
  Speaker 5: the wrong place or they don't know what's going on.
• 39:30
  Speaker 5: Sometimes those guys who are amazing are gonna make plays
• 39:32
  Speaker 5: and that's fine, but you can't let it be constant
• 39:35
  Speaker 5: and you can't let it get out of hand because
• 39:37
  Speaker 5: that's when the games get out of hand. So it's
• 39:39
  Speaker 5: exciting for me to see that now. Just good communication
• 39:41
  Speaker 5: between all three levels of the defense as well. Lee
• 39:44
  Speaker 5: Luke has always been a good communicator, but to now
• 39:46
  Speaker 5: have someone like you know, even Eric Murray as well
• 39:48
  Speaker 5: at safety, like just all of the good communication along
• 39:51
  Speaker 5: like feels like everybody's on the same page and that's
• 39:52
  Speaker 5: really nice to see.
• 39:53
  Speaker 4: And congratulations Defoy Luca FC Defensive Player of the Week, Yes,
• 39:58
  Speaker 4: which is well deserved with.
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: The interception caused fumble. I think like twelve.
• 40:04
  Speaker 4: Tackles that he had in the game or ten something
• 40:06
  Speaker 4: like that, and boy, it's amazing how well he plays
• 40:10
  Speaker 4: when he plays Mike. Yeah, I mean, isn't that a
• 40:14
  Speaker 4: novel idea shocking that he could play all Did he
• 40:16
  Speaker 4: come off the field? Did he look fatigue? Oh goodness gracious.
• 40:23
  Speaker 4: I mean, I'm just having a Ryan Nielsen flashback only you.
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: I'm not Jaguars All Access Television tonight.
• 40:30
  Speaker 5: Who you got mister running back himself? Travis Etn is
• 40:33
  Speaker 5: going to be there with us.
• 40:35
  Speaker 4: They had a monster game that cut that he had
• 40:37
  Speaker 4: on the seventy one yard er with a great block
• 40:39
  Speaker 4: by Brenton Strange and then completely collapside with Ezra Cleveland
• 40:44
  Speaker 4: and Walker little great run and great effort by Diammie
• 40:48
  Speaker 4: Brown getting out down the field and blocking in front. Yeah,
• 40:51
  Speaker 4: but I mean, but it was all set up. Etn
• 40:54
  Speaker 4: had an unblocked safety merrig and he went to the
• 40:57
  Speaker 4: outside and that Merrik went to the outside and then
• 41:01
  Speaker 4: Travis planted his foot and just just downhill through the
• 41:05
  Speaker 4: whole incredibly fast, really strong game. And the crazy thing
• 41:10
  Speaker 4: is is that, you know, the reality is he left
• 41:12
  Speaker 4: some yards out there too.
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: In the first half.
• 41:14
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, he kind of got his weight a little
• 41:16
  Speaker 4: bit too far forward on his feet and was kind
• 41:18
  Speaker 4: of falling down going forward instead of staying balanced. And
• 41:22
  Speaker 4: you know, using his vision and making some moves. So
• 41:26
  Speaker 4: but kudos to him, you know, because here's the reality.
• 41:28
  Speaker 4: He worked his butt off all season knowing that that
• 41:32
  Speaker 4: running back room all of a sudden was crowded and competitive,
• 41:36
  Speaker 4: and he never never complained.
• 41:40
  Speaker 5: He bought right in for sure, you know.
• 41:42
  Speaker 4: And I could use some other words to say, but
• 41:45
  Speaker 4: like some other people might have done or have done,
• 41:48
  Speaker 4: he just put his nose down to the grindstone and
• 41:50
  Speaker 4: went to work and it paid off to him.
• 41:52
  Speaker 5: I'd give him credit for it too. I mean, he's
• 41:54
  Speaker 5: had situations even when Tank was drafted it was like, oh,
• 41:57
  Speaker 5: it is Tank going to take over. He's dealt with
• 41:58
  Speaker 5: a lot of that since he's been here, So I
• 42:01
  Speaker 5: always felt like he's had a really good added even
• 42:03
  Speaker 5: last year the fumble in the first game, came talked
• 42:06
  Speaker 5: about it postgame. Sorry who he's gone no more? Uh,
• 42:13
  Speaker 5: just Travis. I always felt has been like has really
• 42:15
  Speaker 5: grown into like a great professional and always really owned
• 42:18
  Speaker 5: it and maybe been in tough situations. They've had so
• 42:20
  Speaker 5: many changes in coaching as well. I thought that was good,
• 42:22
  Speaker 5: but like just the way he's dealt with all of
• 42:26
  Speaker 5: those changes hasn't been impressive. To me, and I think
• 42:28
  Speaker 5: I was happy to see him have such a good
• 42:30
  Speaker 5: game right out of the gate.
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: By the way, great great trade by James Gladstone for getting.
• 42:34
  Speaker 5: A five and a cer trader, James, I've been calling out, Yeah.
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: Good stuff. I mean it's the fourth trade since the
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: started training camp. Good stuff.
• 42:41
  Speaker 5: A lot of picks, though, do with all those picks?
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: Pick them or trade them? Get good players about that.
• 42:47
  Speaker 5: Something will happen.
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: Something will happen tonight at seven o'clock at String Sports
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: Brewery and it's called Jaguars All Access Television.

• 42:54
  Speaker 4: We're looking forward to seeing that. Yes, I'm looking forward
• 42:56
  Speaker 4: to the Alabama White Wings.
• 42:58
  Speaker 5: I knew that was standing.
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: Are getting them tonight. I didn't get them last week,
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: but I'm getting them to Everybody, buy some food, get

• 43:43
  Speaker 2: ten minutes, It's Jags HQ James Gladstone and Tony BISSELLI
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: will join us in studio on the Jaguars Radio Network
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: at five o'clock. We're on ten to Xcel ninety two
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: point five FM, Jaguars dot Com and Jaguars YouTube for
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: Jaguars Happy Hour, jap Shadick, Jeff Loghman. Time now for
• 44:00
  Speaker 2: the injury report presented by uf Health, the proud healthcare
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: partner of the Jacksonville Jaguars, and the report came out
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: at four o'clock today. There are five Jaguars on the
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: list now. I'm on TERK Brown with an ankle issue
• 44:13
  Speaker 2: still limited Wednesday and Thursday. At the cornerback tackle Anton
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: Harrison with a back issue full both Wednesday and Thursday.
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: Liam Cohen said this week he's fine. He left the
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: game late last week against Carolina, didn't come back, but
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: he's good to go moving ahead. Wyatt Mileham, the guard
• 44:30
  Speaker 2: with a knee issue, has not participated Wednesday or Thursday.
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: Foyer Lucan added to the list today with an illness,
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: so he did not participate in practice on Thursday. He
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: was out there Wednesday, and I would guess the idea
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: is to hope he's back on the field tomorrow. Col
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: Van Landon, of course, tackle with a shoulder issue, has
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: been full both Wednesday and Thursday for the Jags, so
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: that's a good sign for him. Step up. Cincinnati three
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: players in the list. Defensive tackle BJ Hill is not
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: injury related. He's resting limited on Thursday, full on Wednesday.
• 45:00
  Speaker 2: I Marius Men's the right tackle, the starter with an
• 45:03
  Speaker 2: ankle issue limited Wednesday and Thursday, and the long snapper
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: on the list, William Wagner, full participation though with a
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: hamstring issue both days this week. That is the injury
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: report presented by UF Health. So the team out pretty
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: clean from last week. Yeah, no, it was good.
• 45:21
  Speaker 6: You know.
• 45:21
  Speaker 4: I think it's good to see that Cole Van lannin
• 45:24
  Speaker 4: is is full participation. Last week elevated a guy off
• 45:29
  Speaker 4: the practice squad. This week probably looks like maybe Cole
• 45:32
  Speaker 4: might be available if he's not on the injury report anymore.
• 45:34
  Speaker 4: So that's good he's and the reason that's good is
• 45:37
  Speaker 4: that he's your your best backup tackle, and so last
• 45:42
  Speaker 4: week not having him as a backup, if you had
• 45:45
  Speaker 4: had an issue, which you ended up having a dogag
• 45:48
  Speaker 4: and at right tackle late in the game, your dog
• 45:51
  Speaker 4: is not really a left tackle, so to speak, in
• 45:53
  Speaker 4: a game. And I think Cole can play either left
• 45:55
  Speaker 4: or right as a backup. So that's good to have
• 45:58
  Speaker 4: if he's going to be ready to go this here's a.
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: Question for you, speaking of actives. Inactives, Mason Smith was
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: inactive last week with the tank Bigsby move and possibly
• 46:08
  Speaker 2: only three running backs up, does that give Mason that spot?
• 46:11
  Speaker 4: You think it could, but you know, it just depends
• 46:15
  Speaker 4: on where he's at. You know, I think a lot
• 46:17
  Speaker 4: of times people are kind of reading into this a
• 46:20
  Speaker 4: little bit too much, and if they think, well, he's
• 46:23
  Speaker 4: just not living up to expectations, that's not it. Remember,
• 46:27
  Speaker 4: he missed almost the entirety of training camp with what
• 46:31
  Speaker 4: was a lower body injury, and you know, I don't
• 46:34
  Speaker 4: know specifically what it was, but it kept him out
• 46:38
  Speaker 4: all the way until I think the practices with the
• 46:40
  Speaker 4: Miami Dolphins, and so I mean he's had limited time
• 46:43
  Speaker 4: to get ready. He's still recovering from an injury and
• 46:46
  Speaker 4: he's still trying to gain enough stamina to be to
• 46:49
  Speaker 4: where he can be a contributor on game day. So, look,
• 46:52
  Speaker 4: he's doing all the right things. He's a good football player.
• 46:56
  Speaker 4: He's just working his way back. And then when he's
• 46:58
  Speaker 4: back and he's able to contribute more than an Austin
• 47:01
  Speaker 4: Johnson per se, who by the way, played well the
• 47:04
  Speaker 4: other day and is a good player, then.
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: He'll be ready to go.
• 47:08
  Speaker 6: You know.
• 47:09
  Speaker 2: I mean, look, I'm happy to see that he's not
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: active because he's not ready yet. In the past he
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: probably would have been active.
• 47:18
  Speaker 4: And I give James Gladstone credit because look, I mean,
• 47:22
  Speaker 4: you had some performances that weren't where they needed to
• 47:25
  Speaker 4: be at the defensive tackle spot, and he went out
• 47:27
  Speaker 4: and he addressed at Austin Johnson Colin Saunders, and he
• 47:31
  Speaker 4: brought in those two guys so that they can play
• 47:34
  Speaker 4: at a certain level.
• 47:36
  Speaker 2: And so if you have a guy who's working his way.
• 47:40
  Speaker 4: Back from injuried and is not quite ready, you've got
• 47:43
  Speaker 4: two guys that are veteran guys that can play well.
• 47:47
  Speaker 4: And they by the way they played well, you could
• 47:50
  Speaker 4: make the argument Colin Saunders played better than Devon Hamilton.
• 47:53
  Speaker 4: In that game, Austin Johnson I thought played really well.
• 47:57
  Speaker 4: But this week, here's one thing I will point out
• 48:00
  Speaker 4: against the Bengals watching them against Cleveland, and obviously Miles
• 48:05
  Speaker 4: Garrett had a little bit to do with this, but
• 48:08
  Speaker 4: the Bengals aren't great on the inside of the offensive line,
• 48:13
  Speaker 4: the two guards. I think the center is okay, but
• 48:16
  Speaker 4: the two guards aren't great. And you've got to win
• 48:20
  Speaker 4: against those two positions this week. And that means Austin Johnson,
• 48:24
  Speaker 4: it means Eric Armstead has got to be in there
• 48:27
  Speaker 4: in that mix. Whoever kicks down in the inside, whether
• 48:30
  Speaker 4: it's smooth again kicking down, got to win in the
• 48:33
  Speaker 4: inside this week to get Joe Burrow's face.
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: Got good news for you, Logau is the Bengals are
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: usually a slow starting team the first two weeks of
• 48:41
  Speaker 2: the season.
• 48:42
  Speaker 6: I know.
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: Isn't it crazy that they're two and eleven in weeks
• 48:44
  Speaker 2: one and two combined since twenty nineteen.
• 48:47
  Speaker 4: And that's for the word Zach Taylor. Yeah, that's under
• 48:50
  Speaker 4: Zach Taylor, which is not a very good number. And
• 48:52
  Speaker 4: one of those two wins came last week against Cleveland.
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so well, look, I think they're to be fired up.
• 49:00
  Speaker 4: I think they're going to be fired up because one,
• 49:02
  Speaker 4: it's their home opener and they are coming off of
• 49:06
  Speaker 4: a win, which they haven't been very successful early in
• 49:10
  Speaker 4: the season. Last year, they had some issues early on
• 49:13
  Speaker 4: and ended up being on the outside looking in at
• 49:16
  Speaker 4: nine to eight, even though that they kind of caught
• 49:18
  Speaker 4: fire a little bit late in the season, and so
• 49:19
  Speaker 4: they I think they've learned a lesson from last year
• 49:22
  Speaker 4: that you can't start slow, and so I expect them
• 49:26
  Speaker 4: as an offense too, to come out slinging it and
• 49:30
  Speaker 4: trying to score a lot of points and being very aggressive.
• 49:33
  Speaker 4: And the reason why is it against Cleveland, which has
• 49:36
  Speaker 4: a really good defense. By the way, they only had
• 49:39
  Speaker 4: ninety five net yards passing. Ninety five netyards passing With
• 49:43
  Speaker 4: Joe Burrow, T Higgins and Jamar Chase. You think those
• 49:46
  Speaker 4: three guys are going to be satisfied with ninety five
• 49:48
  Speaker 4: net yards passing, I don't think so.
• 49:50
  Speaker 2: You think they're gonna be fired up.
• 49:51
  Speaker 4: To play this week to change the conversation about their
• 49:55
  Speaker 4: offense this week, I think they will be, and that
• 49:57
  Speaker 4: means the JAG's secondary should be fired up to play
• 50:00
  Speaker 4: against them, as well well, and they should be.
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: It's a good challenge, should be fired up.
• 50:04
  Speaker 4: Because again, like you talked about earlier, they haven't been
• 50:07
  Speaker 4: very good early in the season, so let's.
• 50:09
  Speaker 2: Continue that this week. The Jaguars face the Cincinnati Bengals
• 50:13
  Speaker 2: this Sunday in Week two. Are thanks to coach Mark
• 50:17
