  Speaker 4: Explain to my son like these people can, you know,
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: work ninety five jobs and come out and feel like
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: themselves so it's not judged too much.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: And then he was great about that, so it was cool.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: All right. So the big thing.
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: About last week, and I'll never forget this, is that
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: you had the schedule, wouldn't.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: I didn't don't about Okay, I don't know what you're
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: talking about.
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: And then I got so many texts like did he
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: really cut his hair?
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Is it true? Did you get the same thing? Yeah?
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: And at first I was like, I don't know. I
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: didn't see him after the I honestly didn't know. And
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: somebody sent me a picture and I guess it was
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: like AI Generator or whatever. And my wife was like,
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: she says, I don't like it, but it wasn't Ai
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: generated that they filmed the whole thing for the video,
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: so it was a screen shot from the video. Bro,
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: it was a wig yeah, yeah, or whatever it was.
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: And she's like, I don't like it, okay, And I
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: was like, well, I hadn't seen it.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: She sent me a picture. I'm like, I kind of
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: like it, you know.
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: So I was like everybody had an opinion, but everybody
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: wanted to know the bottom line. I mean, was it
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: real or was it not real? I mean, that was Hey,
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: that's pretty cool, pretty cool.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: I like it.
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: I Mean, I think the whole point of social media
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: is get people talking. And I think that you know,
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: quote unquote haircut, it got people talking.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna be honest. When I saw it happen, I'm
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: saying the video. I saw it happen for a team
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: that specializes in communication. It seems like with Liam Cohen
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: and everything.
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: The fact that they just let him have that haircut
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: and nobody said anything about it, I'm like, this can't
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: be real.
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: Like they're not going to let him go outside looking
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: like that, right, Like cam Little had to say something.
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: Somebody should have said something to him. So I'm glad
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: that it wasn't real, but like it wasn't my favorite style.
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: Let's just say so, here's the question that I see.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: I'm not qualified to discuss this much at all. Will
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: he ever cut his hair while he is playing? I mean,
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: that is the hair part of his superpower, it's part
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: of the brand.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, is it's got to be.
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: I mean, do you remember when Justin Herbert cut his
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: hair Because I always thought like Herbert's hair was kind
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: of part of the brand, and all of a sudden
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: he cut it and it looked like he was ten
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: years old again, and he got made fun of on
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: social media and everything. I think anything's possible. But from
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: my understanding, I believe Trevor's wife likes the longest.
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: That's what he said. He's like yeah, she likes it,
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: so it's not going anywhere. Yeah soon, happy wife, happy life. Man,
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: I think I ought to go the mohawk. Yeah, leave
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: it long, go mohawk, you know, go, you know.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: Go go wild. Maybe you should let yours grow long again, logs.
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: I don't have it in me JP anymore, you know,
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: I mean it falls out before it gets long enough,
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: you know, to where it's you know, anything of significance.
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: Those days are gone.
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: I'm just gonna say, if Trevor comes out with the
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: mohawk one day, man, like I pretty sweety well, I
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: think taking the praise, let it rip a little too literally,
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: like let's well, let's keep within reason, Like I get it, man,
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: be yourself, but like let's let's.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: Kind of wring on in a little bit. You have
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: the breaks, true, Yeah, alright, like me to like leave
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: it long, but do you know, go the okay sleeve tattoo.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: This is from the whole game.
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: And then what he can do, like you know, for
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: you know, like players nowadays, like when they roll up
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: for game day, it's a big deal. I mean it's
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: a fashion show, it's a statement being made. He can
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: do the spikes, you know, with the with the.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: Long roll.
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: Totally look like the Rockville thing and but but totally
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: pumped out to be sweet one morning. This was actually
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: shot with the Jaguars team barber. There is a chair
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: and a room down here in the in the Midder
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: Electric Center. And even he was getting responses from people
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: he knows, like what did you do to his hair?
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: Like what what?
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: What is this cut? Like what's going on down there? Yeah,
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: you know, And of course it was all he did.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: Actually cut the wig though, that was the real part
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: of it. So do you go down to the barber
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: chair and then have them you know, obviously you're like,
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: what a number one guard on the top, half my
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: half okay, my half, I go low half a half
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: guard on the top, you know, because slow it's funny
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: I look bolder with more hair. Funny how that works.
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: It's totally true, totally true. But I mean you've replaced
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: the hair on top with the beard.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: Now, I got it. I don't have it where I
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: need it, so.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: Well, just you know, I'm just I'm just glad that
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: you don't, you know, you didn't allow the hair to
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: grow in your ears and all the way down your neck. Now, yeah, yeah, Jeff,
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: let me ask it. So you get longer hair when
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: you played? Oh yeah, okay, I actually like ponytail.
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: All okay, so I was I've had these dreads forever
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: now since I played back in twenty ten. If somebody
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: paid you money to cut your hair, would you have
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: done it in the locker room? Because I was offered
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: a lump sum of money from Jeremy Member, Derek Harvey and.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: Terrence knighton fifty fifty grand, fifty grand. If you didn't
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: do it, didn't do it? Come on, they did not
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: do it?
• 6:45
  Speaker 5: I would have been like shigned me in retrospect now
• 6:48
  Speaker 5: like yeah, I wonder you know, but like at that time,
• 6:51
  Speaker 5: you know that the checks are piling in, you're all
• 6:53
  Speaker 5: good and like the thing with dreads and and that's sure,
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: it's part of the same thing.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: Long hair. It's like it becomes a part of you.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: Like this.
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: This took me like five years of just non stop
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: twisting up.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: I checked on ma, I'm aware, I'm never aware, but like, now,
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: let me ask you.
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: So it was it was Terrence Knight and Jeremy Minci
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: Car Derek Harvey.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: Were they going to go like thirds all the way through? Correct?
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: Well, it started like at you know, ten thousand, and
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: then like a couple of guys like, no, I'm going
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: to add to that pot on that.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: So then they kept on just adding it to see
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: what I would what I would say, was it going
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: to be cash? I would hope, so.
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: Money, and then I'll sid I'll take a seat. Yeah,
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean here in front of everybody.
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: I had I had, So I had.
• 7:38
  Speaker 6: Very long hair when I was playing, and.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: Uh, Tom didn't mind that time.
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: When I got here, I already had a shore okay,
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: But when I was in New York, I had long hair.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: And I made a.
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: Deal with all my teammates because you know, at the time,
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: the Jets hadn't been to playoff in a long time,
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: and I said, look, so we get to the playoffs,
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: you can cut my hair. And of course everybody was
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: like yeah.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: So I actually they gave me a mohawk, so I
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: had long hair. And then James Hasty, who was an
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: excellent corner in the league, he was the one who
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: gave me a haircut.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: So I got, I got.
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: I had one of those long mohawks I was talking about.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: Kept it for one playoff.
• 8:21
  Speaker 6: Game and then yeah, then I had to get cut off.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: There's there's a rookie with the business front the back.
• 8:29
  Speaker 6: And then then I got it along all the way across.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that was Stevens Point, Wisconsin. Ready right there, that
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: hit that. You know, I could get it all well.
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: And then of course too with me my rookie year
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: since because you know it's the hazing part.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: Back when it was real hazing, they would shave your head.
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: Well, if you had dreads, you had the option not
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: to shave your heads or they have to shave your eyebrows.
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: So I got both my eyebrows shaved for for Rookie
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: Champ and everything really got after you. I remember them,
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: you know, taping you against the goal post.
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: I was taped against the goal post, baby Potter over us.
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: Man.
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: I remember next year Jack shut it down to say
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: not doing anymore. I'm like, oh, I appreciate you coching now,
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: ye yeah, because I'm ready to get it back to
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: the rookies coming in.
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: And the Rio was totally supportive of all the rookie
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: hazing thing. I mean, because you know, he came from
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: the old school, you know, and so he was totally
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: supportive of it. And I think there was a little
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: bit of backlash criticism from the outside on some of
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: that stuff, and then he was like, maybe I better
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: not allow all that stuff to happen.
• 9:26
  Speaker 4: I guess so, man, I mean I would have used
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: about the rookie dinner a little bit because I had
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: to spend some serious coin at the rookie dinner as well.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: How much did you drop on that? So, I mean,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: now I'm gonna see you got to explain what the
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: rookie dinner is.
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: So the rookie dinner basically is if you're a rookie
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: and your position group. It just so happened that it
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: was me, Tyson, Aluad and Anthony Smith were all rookies
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: that year, so good rookies something. They were eating good
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: that night, and we ended up going to Ruth Chris
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: and basically we we had to split the bill three
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: ways and and the bets ordered whatever they wanted to
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: eat and whatever they wanted to drink. And once again
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: we were talking about Terrence knighton pot roast.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: Oh who could eat to throw back some food?
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Derrek Harvey who you know like to have the
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: occasional drink and everything that added up.
• 10:09
  Speaker 6: After a while, Man, we remember what the number was
• 10:11
  Speaker 6: that I.
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: Had to pay, No, like like the whole bill. No,
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: I just remember mine was thirty seven hundred, just just
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: for me. And I'm like adding, I could enjoy my dinner, right,
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: because it's okay, let's enjoy your dinner, camaraderie.
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: I'm doing math the entire time. Like I'm hearing another
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: person order a bottle Louis thirteenth. Okay, that's another twelve
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: hundred they went down. Okay, We're going t bones. Okay,
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: it's like I'm doing mathy. How many bottles of Hennessy?
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: I bought a Baker's dozen?
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: It was. It was a lot, man, Yeah, yeah.
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I think my dinner was about twenty
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: five hundred bucks. You know, this is back in eighty nine,
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: you know, I mean, yeah, a lot of money.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like eighty nine cents a gallon.
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: Uh yeah, all right, yeah that's about right. Yeah, but
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: it was cra I mean, we had fun, though.
• 10:59
  Speaker 6: But I remember when I got the bill, I'm like, yeah,
• 11:01
  Speaker 6: I was having fun at all, I know, and.
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: Then I was like, you know, hopefully next year I
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: get a rookie first round pick at some point, and
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: I don't think I ever did, because you always wanted
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: to have the first round pick in the position without
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: a doubt, you know, because you knew if you had
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: a first round pick, you were going to have a
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: good time.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: You were you were going to.
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: Get a dinner somewhere, and it was going to be free,
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: and you were going to be an absolute what's the
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: right word, you would enjoy the complete bar.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: There's nothing there's off limits.
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: Okay, if there is a if there's a bottle of whiskey,
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: that's four hundred dollars a shot. Yeah, yeah, yeah, give
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: me a Dudes are getting bottles to go for us,
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: Bottles to go. Didn't even try them at the dinner.
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: Bottles to go. Yeah, that's you can't do that. That's
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: that's like, that's not proper etiquette right there. You can't
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: you can't take one to go. Yeah, yeah, that's not allowed. Well,

  Speaker 3: Mike North on Jaguars dot Com and Jaguars YouTube, going
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: through the making of the NFL schedule each and every year,
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: all these different thousands of iterations and it comes down
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: to a few they presented the commissioner and there's always
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: last second changes. So of course the Jaguars have so
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: many asks each year. You know they've got this year, well,
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: usually it's Florida, Georgia, right, the team's got to be
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: away somehow, you know, Gator Bowl week preferably. Okay, well,
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: this year there's construction involved and they needed a window
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: and that This is kind of how it goes. We'll
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: you bit more from night North coming up. Initial thoughts
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: about the schedule. I mean, this is tough because yeah,
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: they have eight home games, two of them are in London.
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: That means six left in fifteen game weeks. You got
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: to put them somewhere. No, you got to put them somewhere,
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: you know.
• 14:10
  Speaker 4: And I think if you break down the schedule, it's
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: really two parts. It's the first what five games. It
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: is kind of a little bit of a murder's row.
• 14:17
  Speaker 4: You start off with Cleveland, which you hope that you
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: can win that game and get off to a good start,
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: but then you play some talent on that front end.
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: You got here's the first.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: Six weeks, let's just go through it.
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: Home against Cleveland, at Denver, home against the Patriots, at Cincinnati,
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: and then the two games in London against the Eagles
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: and Texans.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's five. That's five games of tough opponents. Yeah,
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: right out of the gate.
• 14:43
  Speaker 4: So you see those tough opponents and obviously that's going
• 14:45
  Speaker 4: to be a rough stretch. You have the bye week,
• 14:47
  Speaker 4: which is a little early in the season, which I'm
• 14:49
  Speaker 4: not sure Liam Collen feels about that. I always preferred
• 14:52
  Speaker 4: my buy more towards the middle or the end, just
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: because then you get your body a chance to rest.
• 14:56
  Speaker 4: And then you look at the back end of the
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: schedule after that bye week, on the road a lot,
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: and to me, it's really highlighted by you know, when
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: you come back home against Pittsburgh Monday night, you got
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: to go to Houston then on Sunday, which is probably
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: gonna be one of the biggest games of the year
• 15:11
  Speaker 4: in Houston, and then play them maybe per a Division
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: and Houston and that game will be coming off of
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: a bye week of their own, so they'd be well rested.
• 15:18
  Speaker 4: So this second half the schedule looks easier, but with
• 15:22
  Speaker 4: travel and obviously a fatigue playing a factor, it's gonna
• 15:26
  Speaker 4: be hard to navigate.
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: It's I was kind of surprised when I saw the
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: back end. I mean, typically you see a division opponent
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: heavy back end, and you don't really see that this year,
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: which is a little bit different.
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: I mean, you have the.
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: Colts there the last game, but I mean usually you
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: have you know, two or three teams right there at
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: the very end. Over the last six weeks, it's only
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: two division games, and that's kind of odd. You know,
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: it's a little bit different from in year's past, but
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: you know, to go back before the season even starts.
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: I know there's been some conversation about preseason practicing.
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: With a couple of opponents.
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: I think Carolina Panthers have said that they're going to
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: practice with the Jaguars.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: There's a game here that's and.
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: I also like the fact that you have two out
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: of three of your preseason games at home Tampa and
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: then Carolina, and so you could end up practice with
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: Tampa as well, because there's a lot of familiarity with
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: that staff as well. So I think that's a great
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: opportunity to get a lot of reps for your starters,
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: but in a controlled environment, and then you can really
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: evaluate some of the back end of the roster.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: In game situations.
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: Let's hear it again from Mike North from the National
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: Football League about the scheduling challenges that come with only
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: six US based home games with the Jacksonville Jaguars.
• 16:50
  Speaker 7: It really came down to the two London games, and
• 16:54
  Speaker 7: what the team was looking for was like a what
• 16:56
  Speaker 7: they call a donut a four week donut hole where
• 16:59
  Speaker 7: they could really get a lot of construction done and
• 17:02
  Speaker 7: you know, pray for good weather. Got a lot of
• 17:04
  Speaker 7: ground to cover and a lot of work to do,
• 17:06
  Speaker 7: but any four week stretch out of your buildings a lot.
• 17:09
  Speaker 7: So once you knew you were gonna have that four
• 17:11
  Speaker 7: week gap, now you're talking about the weeks before and
• 17:15
  Speaker 7: the weeks after, and the weeks before we could have
• 17:19
  Speaker 7: done two away and two home. We could have done
• 17:21
  Speaker 7: one home and three away. You do one home and
• 17:23
  Speaker 7: three away, and then you do the four week construction
• 17:26
  Speaker 7: donut hole. Now you're talking about only one game in
• 17:29
  Speaker 7: Jacksonville in the first seven weeks of the season. I'm
• 17:31
  Speaker 7: not sure that's the right thing for the fan. I'm
• 17:33
  Speaker 7: not sure that's the right thing for the team quite frankly.
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: Plenty more with Mike North on Jaguars dot Com Jaguars YouTube. Yeah,
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: the two London games part of that donut hole, as
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: he said there. But then yeah, as we mentioned of
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: the last ten weeks, three home games for the Jaguars,
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: it's just kind of how it works out. You're running
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: out of games at some point, you gotta put them somewhere.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: Well.
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: I like the fact that.
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: There was an awareness of trying to make it work,
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: you know, and and a genuine concern for the fan
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: there with Mike North. And that's that's all you can
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: ask with the schedule makers, because i mean, look, to
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: have a donut hole of four weeks from a construction
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: need standpoint, I mean, that's that's not very easy to
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: handle from a scheduling standpoint. So I think the schedule's good.
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: I think they did a great job with what they
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: had to work with, and I'm excited about it. You
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: know what Austin like. If the team's good, Yeah, you
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: can handle a tough schedule.
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: I mean you're gonna have to, right, That's kind of
• 18:32
  Speaker 4: all that there is no choice, you know. I mean
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: I think the biggest thing for me too when I
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: look at that schedule and I honest see how you
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: guys feel about it. I get having the divisional games
• 18:41
  Speaker 4: overseas because that kind of adds a little more to it,
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: right for maybe like the UK fan base, But like
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: to me, I look at that schedule, I look at
• 18:48
  Speaker 4: the home opponents of the Jags, and to me, I
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: think the Texans might be the hardest point. You're gonna
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: play at home, you know, and the fact that now
• 18:56
  Speaker 4: it's gonna be in the UK, like you feel better
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: having that game in jackson Line.
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: I know, Houston kind of had the Jaguars number a
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: lot of years at home in Jacksonville, but this past
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: season the Jags beat him. Liam Calling Company beat him.
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: A lot of people had the Jaguars numbers anywhere.
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah exactly. Yeah, So I'm not pointing them out.
• 19:14
  Speaker 4: That's like the one game where I wish it could
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: have been changed where you play Houston at home in Jacksonville.
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: And maybe get a little bit of a home field
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: advantage from.
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: That crowd, because it's not like Houston really travels that
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: well either. I would agree with you on that, especially
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: given the result that the Jaguars got in London last year. Yeah,
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: not a very good showing. And I would not be surprised,
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: and you know, I would not be surprised to see
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: that the Jaguars travel late this first game, you know,
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: the one it's in Tottenham, because last year they went
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: earlier then they typically have done and it didn't go
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: so well. The second game has always seemed to be
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: the team's played well when there's been back to back
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: games Tottenham and Wembley. Now, so I feel confident in
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: game two, but in game one, I guarantee you Liam
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: sitting there looking at the schedule going, yeah, we're we're
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: not traveling on a Monday.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: For the first game. We're gonna leave on maybe Friday.
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna talk to Sean McVay because they traveled and
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: got there on a Saturday and came out and worked
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: us well. Part of the league's you know, international game
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: scheduling this year was to increase the the good matchups internationally.
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: I mean because history actually we've seen historically some you know,
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: teams that aren't playing well over in the UK games especially,
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: but this year all the international games pretty much are bangers.
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: I mean Week one, Melbourne Australia, Niners, Rams, Huge, Ravens,
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: Cowboys in Brazil, Colts, Commanders in London the first week.
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: The Eagles, Jags, Texans, Jags.
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: Steelers, Saints I mean, okay, Bengals Falcons Week nine and
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: Madrid Lions, Patriots, Vikings, And I mean these are teams
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: that are better than.
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: What they've been in the past. Yeah, a lot of
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: the games of emphasis.
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: On that, Yeah, a lot of the games that have
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: been in the past have been you know where you
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: can look put them at one o'clock and they would
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: get like five percent of the country and the ratings
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: would be terrible.
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: Now they're they're putting some market games, which is good.
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: I mean, and I like that because you know what,
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: look here, we are waking up on our on a
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: Sunday morning a lot of times, and when the Jaggers
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: are not playing and somewhere else. Okay, there's nothing better
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: that I love to do sit in the booth and
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: watch a football game that starts at nine o'clock in
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: the morning. I think it's fantastic, you know. So for
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: fans of the National Football League to have actually good
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: games in that standalone window to be able to have
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: a cup of coffee and watch football. You kidding me,
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: Give it to me all day long. Yeah, I like that.
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: Get used to it. It's not going anywhere. They're going
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: to keep adding them to so get ready. How about
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: a schedule prediction, what's the what's the record? I know
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: you're a huge fan of this logs and yeah, look, uh,
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: you know, I'm just giving fun.
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: Come on, I'm I'm gonna go off.
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: Of last year and say eleven wins, you know, eleven
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: wins with the schedule and just because you know, look,
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: that's not easy to replicate what they did last year.
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: That's that's very hard to do. And I think it's
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: a harder schedule this year. It's a demanding schedule. You know,
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: you've got a couple of trips to London. You've got
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: a stadium that's going to be under construction with a
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: reduced capacity, you know, eleven twelve somewhere right in that,
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: you know, and look if they get eleven and twelve, man,
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: I'm going to be celebrating.
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah it's crazy because I was going to say eleven
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: what was my number? I think to try to replicate
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: thirteen is and who knows, maybe Liam Colen can use
• 22:39
  Speaker 4: this as a little motivation. I think it's unrealistic to
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: have thirteen wins, but who knows that this schedule, maybe
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: they can get it done. But I think if you're
• 22:45
  Speaker 4: talking about ten or eleven, then then you're you're in
• 22:48
  Speaker 4: the heart of the division, you're competing for that division title.
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: And you're talking about the playoffs. That's what this team
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: needs to do right now.
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: I want to I want to see the number of
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: wins that it needs to win the division. If that's
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: ten and ten and eleven eleven, if it's twelve, it's twelve,
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: win the division. I mean if they get to the
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: bye week six and three and three after that run
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: to start the season, everybody's gonna be healthy.
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: What are you talking about? Three and three? Four and two, yes, okay,
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: it can be.
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: Five hundred is a heck of a lot better than
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: winning twice as many games as you watch.
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: True, you know, I mean more win but yeah, yeah.
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: But it's a big difference. It would be a huge
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: going into a or we've won twice as many as
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: we've lost.
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, right, give me four and two. I would love
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: to be four and too, and you get if you
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: come out but all these teams are good. You come
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: out of that.
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: Stretch four and two against those opponents, you're doing pretty long.
• 23:43
  Speaker 6: You're doing pretty good at that point.
• 23:44
  Speaker 4: How beneficial is it to And once again I said
• 23:47
  Speaker 4: this with the nastiks, because every team is gonna be
• 23:49
  Speaker 4: good in the NFL. But like you play a team
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: like Cleveland to start the season off, like don't you
• 23:54
  Speaker 4: kind of get a little sense of confidence where it's like,
• 23:56
  Speaker 4: all right, Cleveland, you know the quarterback situation, will see
• 23:58
  Speaker 4: how they go. I mean, Watson, here's my worry about Cleveland.
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: They've got a defense that's lights out. And so anytime
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: you play a team that's got a defense, because good
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: defenses travel and travel well, and the first week of
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: the season there's always a lot of unknowns and that's
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: the concern there. I got a lot of respect for
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: Todd Munkin as a head coach. I think he's going
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: to do an excellent job there in Cleveland. Yes, there's
• 24:27
  Speaker 3: a big question mark at the quarterback position and offensively
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: from the Cleveland Browns. But the first week is one
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: of those things you know you're just like hold on
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: because there's a lot of things that can happen that
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: you just don't expect well.
• 24:39
  Speaker 4: And honestly, I'm hoping for a really warm game as well,
• 24:41
  Speaker 4: because I think the heat does play a factor week one, absolutely, you.
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: Know, especially coming from Cleveland where they're not really.
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: Accustomed to humidity and everything. Like, you know what I
• 24:48
  Speaker 3: think of all the advangs that you can take, I
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: go back, you know, when we talked about this, and
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: I think it was Buffalo that came down here one
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: year for the opener and we were going, yeah, it's
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: going to be like ninety five ninety five degrees, and
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: Buffalo came down and was just like what hot weather
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: and this worked worked our football team over like nobody's business.
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: So sometimes you feel like it's an advantage, but don't
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: count on it being an advantage.
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: Gotcha, It's time to take your season to the next level.

• 26:38
  Speaker 3: members and it's gonna be really really big on Tuesday.
• 26:42
  Speaker 4: Oh, I thought it doubt that that that you know
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: that that first throw to a wide receiver and everybody
• 26:47
  Speaker 4: drops it. It's gonna be like the biggest thing on Twitter.
• 26:49
  Speaker 4: Because I saw that from the Cleveland Browns camp of
• 26:51
  Speaker 4: I forgot who that the rookie conception? I think, yeah,
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: but I guess he's already a boss after one drop,
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: So apologies to him, I guess, But yeah, I mean,
• 27:01
  Speaker 4: I get this is what we got to do now, right,
• 27:03
  Speaker 4: like we we nitpick every single little rap and everything,
• 27:07
  Speaker 4: but need something to talk about.
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: I remember when, you know, because the first time that
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: the OTA's kind of became popular, Jimmy Johnson started the
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: whole kind of thing in Dallas, going back into the
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: early days, and you know, back in I think it
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: was like ninety eighty nine to ninety and then Jimmy
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: really kind of made that to where he started winning,
• 27:29
  Speaker 3: and then everybody was looking at Jimmy going, Okay, what
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: is he doing. Well, he was doing the OTAs, but
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: there was no regulation on it, you know, there was
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: no format, and Jimmy was doing OTAs all the time.
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: And then the OTAs in ninety two were probably much
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: different pace, way different, way different. And I had a
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: couple of good friends, Darryl Johnson Mark Stepanovsky that were
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: with the Cowboys at times, so I was getting kind
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: of scoop on what they were doing. And well, anyway,
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: the league saw that, and everybody else wanted to replicate that.
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: Tom wanted to repla that, and then I remember, so
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: my first experience with having OTAs the organized team activities
• 28:05
  Speaker 3: was in nineteen ninety five when I came here as
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: a free agent, and Tom had it right out of
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: the gate. And you know, as much as we kind
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: of complained about it, and as much as guys are like, ah,
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: it's kind of a pain in the rear, one of
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: the best times of year I think that there is
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: to be a football player. You're hanging out with your guys.
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: There's no pressure about winning. You're just trying to get better.
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: You're building friendships, you're working out together, you're competing making
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: each other better in the week. You compete in a
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: weight room, compete on the field. And a great thing
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: about it nowadays is that now you've got like five
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: star dining on top of it. Yeah, you know, I
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: mean nowadays, I mean it's top notch. And the most
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: important thing about why OTAs are so important today is
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: that if you work out on your own as a
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: football player, like some choose to do the liability for you.
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: You know, you get hurt working out, guess what, you
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: go back to whatever team that you're with, and they
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: can say that you're a non football injury. But if
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: you get hurt or some kind of injury under the
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: guidance of the football team, then it's considered a football injury.
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: So I think players that.
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: Choose to stay away of the OTAs and everything in
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: the offseason, I don't think they're very smart.
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: They are voluntary. They're voluntary.
• 29:27
  Speaker 4: But also I think now that you retain both coordinators
• 29:30
  Speaker 4: is huge because I've gone through OTA's where you brought
• 29:32
  Speaker 4: a new defensive coordinator in. He's trying to put a
• 29:34
  Speaker 4: new system in and it's more of just like you're
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: I don't say like you're in a whirlwind, but it's like, Okay,
• 29:40
  Speaker 4: I gotta remember this, remember this. I mean, granted this,
• 29:42
  Speaker 4: teams are going to change this year. It's probably an
• 29:44
  Speaker 4: offense a little bit as well. But I feel like
• 29:47
  Speaker 4: now these OTA's allow to stack off of last year.
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 29:49
  Speaker 4: I think some teams are going through new regime changes
• 29:51
  Speaker 4: where it's like, all right, we got to integrate this,
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: integrate this, like the Jaguars are past that now. So
• 29:56
  Speaker 4: instead of integrating, it's okay, here's what we did last year.
• 29:59
  Speaker 4: Let's build off, and we start building off things. You
• 30:02
  Speaker 4: can get some progress, and.
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: You really hope that the offense takes, you know, that
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: next step. You know where Trevor is is, you know,
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: is owning it? You know, whereas last year you could
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: tell me watching the OTAs, you know, I mean there
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: was a lot of OTA days we watched We're.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: Like, I don't know, you know, is it gonna work?
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: You know, is he gonna pull through? Is he that guy?
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: I mean, there was a lot of questions watching the
• 30:25
  Speaker 3: OTAs last year, and even at the beginning of the
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: year last year, we were like, I don't know, you know,
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: I don't know. And then you know, you think about
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: that one moment where Liam's going sitting right here on
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: the chest. I mean, it was one of those moments.
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: And then finally there was the conversation about winging it,
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: and then after that it was just like, oh, you know,
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: it all makes sense. You know, the matrix is making sense.
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: You know, so now you expect kind of that next step,
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: that next progression with Trevor and Liam and the offense,
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: and so I think there's a lot of excitement for that,
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: and there should be a lot of excitement for that,
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: exactly like what you're talking about Alston, stacking that knowledge
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: and building on it.
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: What is the next step for this offense? What should
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: it look like this year?
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: I think the consistency of expecting them to play how
• 31:15
  Speaker 3: they did in that last four or five game stretch
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: to where they were a threat to put thirty up
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: every week. I think that's the expectation. And it's going
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: to look different. I mean, because look, there's different people
• 31:26
  Speaker 3: that are going to be out there. But I mean,
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: to me, the core of it is about your quarterback,
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: this quarterback league, and you expect Trevor to pick up
• 31:36
  Speaker 3: where he left off, not just kind of take a
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: step back and have to regain his footing again, but
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: to just roll.
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: To me, I think when you look at what that
• 31:45
  Speaker 4: offense was last year, I think they did a great
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: job of adapting to what the defense was giving them.
• 31:50
  Speaker 4: This year, I want to see in an offense that
• 31:52
  Speaker 4: maybe enforces its will a little more right. And then
• 31:54
  Speaker 4: the first part of the season, they did a great
• 31:56
  Speaker 4: job of running the football. Second part of the season,
• 31:58
  Speaker 4: teams trying to stop the run, they start pas a
• 32:00
  Speaker 4: little more.
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: I want to see a team that can do both
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: right that they they keep it a defense guessing where
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: it's like, Okay.
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: Well it's start and run.
• 32:07
  Speaker 4: We don run the football, try to stop it right Like,
• 32:09
  Speaker 4: That's where I think that the next evolution, the next
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: chapter of this offense is going to be. And maybe
• 32:13
  Speaker 4: some of the draft picks are going to kind of
• 32:15
  Speaker 4: show that sign. Where is it gonna be a runner
• 32:17
  Speaker 4: a pass? You got to figure it out for yourselves.
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: I think he brings up You actually bring up a
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: great point because look at who they drafted. Oh without
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: a dot, okay, offensive lineman too, tight ends, and Liam
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: made the comment that he wasn't very happy about the
• 32:32
  Speaker 3: running game at the end of that year.
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: He made a comment.
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: I can't remember the exact wording, but I remember hearing
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: it and I went, ooh, he's not happy about where
• 32:39
  Speaker 3: they were at running the football towards the end of the.
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: Year last year, so he wants to run it concent.
• 32:44
  Speaker 3: There was a lot of that kind of midway point
• 32:46
  Speaker 3: when tight ends were hurt and they had to put
• 32:48
  Speaker 3: the extra lineman out there.
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: A lot and that kind of gives it up. You're
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: not going to throw it to him, you know.
• 32:53
  Speaker 4: I actually I wrote an article for the Jaguars website
• 32:55
  Speaker 4: because you guys got me writing now as well. But
• 32:57
  Speaker 4: I wrote a little bit about the draft class and
• 32:59
  Speaker 4: one of the things that I brought up was obviously
• 33:01
  Speaker 4: drafting two tight ends, which a lot of people didn't
• 33:03
  Speaker 4: see coming. But I compared it to I played against
• 33:07
  Speaker 4: Houston Texans a lot, obviously when I was in Jacksonville
• 33:09
  Speaker 4: and Gary Kubac. It suck playing against Peyton man because
• 33:12
  Speaker 4: Peyton Manning was so good. But I had nightmares played
• 33:16
  Speaker 4: against a Gary kub At coach team. Not necessarily because
• 33:19
  Speaker 4: the players you're playing against, like Andre Johnson was a
• 33:21
  Speaker 4: great wide receiver. Yes, Aaron Foster was good in his
• 33:23
  Speaker 4: own right, but I would have nightmares because you never
• 33:27
  Speaker 4: knew if it was gonna be a runner a pass.
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: And Jeff, you can attest to this. When teams specialize in.
• 33:31
  Speaker 4: Play actions and not having any kind of tell whatsoever
• 33:34
  Speaker 4: it's gonna be a runner a pass, that's where you
• 33:36
  Speaker 4: start to falter as a defense. And every single time
• 33:39
  Speaker 4: we played the Houston Texans, they had such a great
• 33:41
  Speaker 4: job of play action. We had no idea, we had
• 33:44
  Speaker 4: no tips, no cues, We had a guess And so.
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: You're you're what you're talking about. I go back into
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: my memory bank, and that's Mike Shanahan with the Denver
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: Brown exactly, yeah, John.
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: Elway and Terrell Davis.
• 33:55
  Speaker 3: And then I go back even further with the K
• 33:58
  Speaker 3: gun and Buffalo with Thurman Thomas and Jim Kelly and
• 34:01
  Speaker 3: the wide receivers James Lofton Henre Reid, and they should
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: sit there and they would run belly week, belly strong
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: and play action off of it, and you just you
• 34:10
  Speaker 3: kind of knew what was coming. But then it was
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: like is it the run or is it the play action?
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: Exactly? You know, and that's hard to stop. Yep.
• 34:17
  Speaker 3: Man, it's hard to perfect that though too right as
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: an offense. I mean, it is hard to perfect it right.
• 34:22
  Speaker 3: And this is where hopefully that he's coming to playing everything.
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: But like that's what once again, like I give Gary
• 34:27
  Speaker 3: qu Beck liut of credit because like they had titans
• 34:29
  Speaker 3: like Owen Daniels and Garrett Graham was another guy from
• 34:32
  Speaker 3: Wisconsin that got drafted by them. Like they didn't scare
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: you on paper, but they just scared you because they
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: they never told anything.
• 34:39
  Speaker 4: It was always a disguise. And as a defense, the
• 34:42
  Speaker 4: last thing you want to do is be on your
• 34:43
  Speaker 4: heels and guests the whole time. And hopefully with Liam
• 34:45
  Speaker 4: calling this offensive prowess, the speed these talented receivers, if
• 34:49
  Speaker 4: you get some of that gone, the sky's a limit.
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: That's the offensive side of improvement. How about on the
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: other side of the football defensively, where can they take
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: a step here? Look, I think a big part of
• 35:01
  Speaker 3: it is just the evolution of understanding the scheme. Also,
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: where is Travis Hunter going to play? Is he going
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: to play more? I think that's going to be a
• 35:10
  Speaker 3: big part of it. And then they've got to find
• 35:13
  Speaker 3: a way to develop more pass rushers upfront. I mean,
• 35:17
  Speaker 3: that's how this football team can take the next step.
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: And then you've got to find a way to continue
• 35:21
  Speaker 3: the takeaways. And look, that's not going to be easy
• 35:23
  Speaker 3: to replicate. The only way that you can try to
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: replicate those numbers is to generate more pressure against quarterbacks.
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: Continue to do a great job against the run like
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: they did last year. But you know the reality is,
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: was the pass rush or the pressure on opposing quarterbacks
• 35:38
  Speaker 3: that great consistently.
• 35:40
  Speaker 6: No, there's a lot of room for growth I think
• 35:43
  Speaker 6: in that category.
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree.
• 35:44
  Speaker 4: I mean when you look at some of the top defenses,
• 35:46
  Speaker 4: the NFL set us out in the Houston Texans because
• 35:48
  Speaker 4: they're an anomaly to me, but when you look at
• 35:50
  Speaker 4: like the Rams and the Seahawks, it's on your kind
• 35:53
  Speaker 4: of the same umbrella in terms of it's all based
• 35:55
  Speaker 4: off of confusion. They have guys at the line of scrimmage,
• 35:57
  Speaker 4: whether it's safeties, linebackers, linemens ending up. Sometimes some are dropping,
• 36:01
  Speaker 4: some are blitzing, and the Jaguars try to do that.
• 36:04
  Speaker 4: I felt like in the first half of the season
• 36:07
  Speaker 4: they played the Houston Texans in Houston, it kind of
• 36:10
  Speaker 4: goes bad, and then they.
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: Simplify a lot of things.
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: I think, you know, the goal this year for this
• 36:15
  Speaker 4: coach Camp defense is you want to start to introduce
• 36:18
  Speaker 4: some more of these confusing types of setups where a
• 36:20
  Speaker 4: guys are standing up, you got safeties playing in the box.
• 36:22
  Speaker 4: Maybe a lot of dime if you will, but you
• 36:25
  Speaker 4: want to confuse the offensive line, you want to confuse
• 36:27
  Speaker 4: the center, and you want to confuse the quarterback.
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: And they kind of went away from that a little.
• 36:30
  Speaker 4: Bit and went a little more basic, because hey, guys
• 36:33
  Speaker 4: were playing within themselves. I remember I talked to Josh
• 36:36
  Speaker 4: heinz Ouen after that Texans game, and he even said, like,
• 36:38
  Speaker 4: we were just pressing too much. We were trying to
• 36:40
  Speaker 4: do too much. And I think in that Texans game
• 36:42
  Speaker 4: is when they kind of made it a little more vanilla.
• 36:45
  Speaker 4: Give me strawberry, give me chocolate, give me give me
• 36:48
  Speaker 4: key lin pie. This year, like, make it add some
• 36:50
  Speaker 4: more wrinkles, man, make it more complicated and let guys
• 36:53
  Speaker 4: be athletes out.
• 36:54
  Speaker 3: I think they're deeper too. On the defense, I mean
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: just on paper. I mean, obviously paper is one thing
• 36:59
  Speaker 3: and production is just completely different thing. But I mean,
• 37:01
  Speaker 3: you know, I mean, think about the number of bodies
• 37:03
  Speaker 3: last year that weren't able to contribute for various reasons,
• 37:06
  Speaker 3: and mostly because of injury. I mean two draft picks
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: that were seasons. One of them was completely cut short,
• 37:11
  Speaker 3: another one or two of them were completely cut short,
• 37:14
  Speaker 3: with Caleb Bransall and the linebacker from Alburn Cloud Cloud,
• 37:20
  Speaker 3: Travis Hunter obviously cut short. And then now you have
• 37:25
  Speaker 3: you know, last year you had two undrafted guys on
• 37:27
  Speaker 3: the outside edge with Strigo and bj Green and now
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: you add you know, a couple more edge players, you know,
• 37:33
  Speaker 3: to create more competition there.
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: So I think it's going to be a lot of fun.
• 37:37
  Speaker 3: And then and then also uh, I expect Eric Armstead
• 37:41
  Speaker 3: to kind of come back, be healthy completely coming in
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: nose roll. I think the team will define it and
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: allow him to be just basically that situational pass rusher
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: and just allow him to do that. And you know,
• 37:53
  Speaker 3: and we'll see if that's the case or not. But
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: it's going to be fun to watch the evolution of
• 37:59
  Speaker 3: the number of edge players that they have with this
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: roster and how it will all fit. Speaking of revolution,
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: technology has evolved over the years.
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: We'll come back and talk to computers.
• 38:10
  Speaker 3: AI Microsoft Copilot has answered and answer to a question
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: that I pre asked, what's the category.
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: Team travel?
• 38:24
  Speaker 3: Okay, back in a moment on tinten Xlamjaguars dot com
• 38:28
  Speaker 3: and Jaguars YouTube, it is Jaguars Happy Hour. It is
• 38:35
  Speaker 3: Jaguars Happy Hour from Honday Studios of the Miller Electric Center,
• 38:39
  Speaker 3: tinten Xlamjaguars dot Com, Jaguars YouTube, each and every Thursday. Yes,
• 38:46
  Speaker 3: it's time to talk to the computer Microsoft Copilot helping
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: us with team travel trivia.
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: So how much do you talk to the question here?
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: What's a week?
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: What NFL team will have the most travel mileage in
• 38:58
  Speaker 3: twenty twenty six?
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: The answer San Francisco forty nine.
• 39:05
  Speaker 3: Ers one of the most travel mallage in twenty twenty six,
• 39:07
  Speaker 3: with a projected thirty eight one hundred and five air miles, the.
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: Highest total in the NFL.
• 39:14
  Speaker 3: Check out Microsoft co pilot easy questions and answers. The Jaguars,
• 39:20
  Speaker 3: by the way, ranked ninth in the mileage list this
• 39:23
  Speaker 3: year twenty three thousand, three hundred chains.
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: Who's uh so?
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: Typically Seattle, San Francisco. The Northwest teams are the ones
• 39:33
  Speaker 3: that travel the most. The teams in the central part
• 39:36
  Speaker 3: of the country, you know, Nashville, Chicago, Indianapolis are usually
• 39:41
  Speaker 3: kind of at the bottom just because they're in the
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: central part of the country. Who is the official bottom
• 39:46
  Speaker 3: feeder of miles expected to travel.
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: This year in the NFL?
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: The I guess they'd be the winner because they get
• 39:54
  Speaker 3: to stay close to home a.
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: Lot more than anybody else. The Carolina Panthers eight thousand,
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: six hundred and forty.
• 39:59
  Speaker 3: One kind of surprising. I thought it would be they
• 40:02
  Speaker 3: might not have a West coast trip. I haven't seen there.
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe that's kind of why it might be why
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: I have to look it up. You want the official
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: top five? Yes? Please?
• 40:10
  Speaker 3: Forty nine ers one Rams, real quick. Forty nine ers
• 40:14
  Speaker 3: have a game to Australia. That's why they're right on
• 40:17
  Speaker 3: the top. They're also going to Mexico, which is closer
• 40:20
  Speaker 3: to the than the East Coast, but they're going twice internationally.
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: Rams are second. They're going to play the.
• 40:25
  Speaker 3: Forty nine ers in Australia thirty four nine hundred miles.
• 40:29
  Speaker 3: Cowboys are playing in Brazil against the Ravens. Okay, so
• 40:34
  Speaker 3: twenty seven nine hundred for the Cowboys, the Patriots twenty
• 40:38
  Speaker 3: seven thousand and five Dolphins twenty seven to five and
• 40:43
  Speaker 3: just a few miles shorter.
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: That's it. I wonder.
• 40:45
  Speaker 3: I wonder what the Dolphins would make sense too, because
• 40:48
  Speaker 3: they're at the very tip bottom of Florida and they
• 40:50
  Speaker 3: got to go all the way to up the East
• 40:52
  Speaker 3: coast and all that stuff. There's the Patriots. Are they
• 40:55
  Speaker 3: playing like NFC West teams this year as part of
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: their rotation? Maybe stand by England patri curiosity at Seattle
• 41:04
  Speaker 3: week one.
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: Okay, there you go, there you go. That's it. And
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: aren't they Are they one of the international games. I
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: just looked this up a minute ago.
• 41:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, a couple a couple of West Coast trips in
• 41:13
  Speaker 3: an international game.
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: And I'll bump you up there, Munich as well. There
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: you go, so that makes sense. Mm hmm. Yeah.
• 41:20
  Speaker 3: The rest of the top ten Texans, six, Chargers, seven Commanders,
• 41:23
  Speaker 3: eight Jags, nine, Seahawks ten, the bottom five Panthers, Browns, Bears, Titans, Buccaneers, Buccaneers.
• 41:32
  Speaker 3: That's kind of surprise, but not a surprise with like Chicago, Nashville,
• 41:37
  Speaker 3: et cetera.
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: Cleveland. I mean all right there in the central part
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: of the county twenty seven thousand miles.
• 41:43
  Speaker 3: We were just talking because you know, there's a reason why, Okay,
• 41:46
  Speaker 3: FedEx central hub is in Memphis.
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: In Memphis and then ups is.
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, their air hub is little surreal central part of
• 41:55
  Speaker 3: the country right there. So that's why some of those
• 41:58
  Speaker 3: other teams in that kind of area are not traveling
• 42:01
  Speaker 3: as many miles. There's a reason why, Okay, fuel costs,
• 42:05
  Speaker 3: et cetera, and uh, expedited delivery. Yeah, the next day,
• 42:12
  Speaker 3: I guess the Jaguars only get to count London once, right,
• 42:15
  Speaker 3: because they're there. You stay, Yeah, you stay there, and
• 42:19
  Speaker 3: you know, because of the schedule, it's always not coming
• 42:24
  Speaker 3: out exactly when you wanted to. From a planning standpoint
• 42:27
  Speaker 3: for like the travel guys and all of that.
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: I wonder if the Jaguars were.
• 42:30
  Speaker 3: Able to get the the grove reserved like they have
• 42:36
  Speaker 3: in the past. It sounds like, yes, that's that's a
• 42:39
  Speaker 3: real good thing because sources say, yes, that's a really
• 42:45
  Speaker 3: nice place to headquarter, really nice. I believe the commanders
• 42:49
  Speaker 3: are there a week before because they're playing the week before.
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: Okay, well, that's good.
• 42:53
  Speaker 3: Then there's another I was told sources say there's another
• 42:56
  Speaker 3: group coming in midweek and then the Jaguars.
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: Come in later that week. All right, all right before
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: the second that's good.
• 43:03
  Speaker 4: Could you ask col Pilot if what the what the
• 43:05
  Speaker 4: best haircut for Trevor Lawrence would be or not?
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: I can ask you.
• 43:09
  Speaker 4: I'm just curious, like if you like put a picture
• 43:11
  Speaker 4: or something and then they could like, you know, a
• 43:12
  Speaker 4: eye it up.
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: A little bit or just to kind of bring it. Yeah,
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: we kind of bring it a round about you know,
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: from the start of the show.
• 43:18
  Speaker 3: Cut for Trevor Lawrence. Let's see question mark, Let's see
• 43:22
  Speaker 3: what it says, verifying if you're a human. Yes, I'm
• 43:24
  Speaker 3: a human sometimes searching the web. Best haircut for Trevor Lawrence,
• 43:29
  Speaker 3: based on both standard addition to what actually suits his
• 43:31
  Speaker 3: face in public persona is still his signature long flowing hair,
• 43:35
  Speaker 3: not the short style seen in the viral schedule He's stunt.
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: His long hair remains a look that the lines his
• 43:41
  Speaker 3: identity brand and what fans overwhelmingly prefer.
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: I'm sure Adidas will probably appreciate that too. Then yeah, yeah, right, yeah, but.
• 43:49
  Speaker 3: Uh JP, what what hairstyle should would Jay would or
• 43:53
  Speaker 3: should j P? Shadrick if he had hair? It would
• 43:56
  Speaker 3: have no answer because that's impossible.
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: That's great. We're not even going there, not even going there,
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: all right?
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: Phase three next week, and then we're a couple of
• 44:06
  Speaker 3: weeks out from Mini camp because it's not the final
• 44:08
  Speaker 3: three practices this year, they're moving them up a week.
• 44:11
  Speaker 3: There's three ot as actually after the mandatory mini camp
• 44:14
  Speaker 3: as well.
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: So here we go. Ten plus three is thirteen practices
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: remaining locks.
• 44:20
  Speaker 3: I think, you know, well, it's always interesting to see
• 44:23
  Speaker 3: if the coach will actually utilize all of the OTAs.
• 44:26
  Speaker 3: You know, being typically the mini campus today minim is
• 44:31
  Speaker 3: kind of this signal, you know, yeah, you know you
• 44:35
  Speaker 3: get to do those kind of fun things maybe on
• 44:36
  Speaker 3: the you know, maybe the second of the last day
• 44:39
  Speaker 3: and the last day you just say we're out.
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 44:42
  Speaker 4: We always did a thing where because they're never pull
• 44:44
  Speaker 4: up the gatoray corters when we went up like a
• 44:46
  Speaker 4: paintball or a movie excursion. So every single time went
• 44:49
  Speaker 4: up for rotas, you check the water jugs to make sure, okay,
• 44:51
  Speaker 4: if they're filled up, we're probably gonna practice if they're
• 44:53
  Speaker 4: not filled up.
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: Because one year we checked it they weren't filled up. Yeah, yeah,
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: you know, we're out. We'll see you. Yeah. Wow. We
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: do any of those fun things with Coughlin. You know,
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: I figured as much we didn't have that. We probably
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: inspected all the water buckets too before practice.
• 45:08
  Speaker 3: One of the cool one of the cool things and
• 45:11
  Speaker 3: one of the one of the it's ridiculous the coaches
• 45:15
  Speaker 3: that water. You know, when I was with the Jets,
• 45:18
  Speaker 3: Pete Carroll and this is more in training camp, but
• 45:21
  Speaker 3: he made he broke up the monotony like we would
• 45:24
  Speaker 3: actually like one night we showed up in a meeting
• 45:27
  Speaker 3: and we had Ronnie Lot on our team and Hall
• 45:30
  Speaker 3: of Famer obviously Leonard Marshall, and Pete starts criticizing Ronnie
• 45:35
  Speaker 3: Lott and doing some film stuff and Ronnie's about to
• 45:39
  Speaker 3: jump out of his chair and wear Pete Carroll out.
• 45:41
  Speaker 3: I literally thought that Ronnie was gonna kill him, legit,
• 45:44
  Speaker 3: because Ronnie's that right here next to me, And all
• 45:48
  Speaker 3: of a sudden, it was wired a little different, and
• 45:51
  Speaker 3: Ronnie's wired differently, okay.
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: Like don't mess with Ronnie.
• 45:55
  Speaker 3: And he was getting p o because Pete was calling
• 45:58
  Speaker 3: him for loaf and what was kind of like a
• 46:00
  Speaker 3: all through part and he was criticized for but nobody
• 46:03
  Speaker 3: realized that it was a joke. And all of a sudden,
• 46:05
  Speaker 3: Pete puts something up on the screen for the next
• 46:07
  Speaker 3: video and it says.
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: Let's go bowling. Well, we all jump on buses. You know.
• 46:12
  Speaker 3: We got a little bowling alley and we compete, you know,
• 46:15
  Speaker 3: with different teams in the bowling alley. And it took
• 46:18
  Speaker 3: me fifteen minutes to get Ronnie to calm down. He's
• 46:21
  Speaker 3: still mad to not beat Pete's rear end. I mean
• 46:25
  Speaker 3: He was so pissed because he was like, look, you
• 46:28
  Speaker 3: gotta respect me and what I am and what I've done,
• 46:32
  Speaker 3: and he thought that Pete really violated that.
• 46:34
  Speaker 4: You see, that's when you're locked in, when you know
• 46:36
  Speaker 4: you're going bowling. Everyone celebrated. He's still like pissed off, right,
• 46:41
  Speaker 4: but he did.
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: It was great. We did bowling.
• 46:43
  Speaker 3: We actually did like a basketball contest. We did a
• 46:48
  Speaker 3: home run derby. So you do a position group. So
• 46:50
  Speaker 3: let's say, you know, defensive line. We had to pick
• 46:53
  Speaker 3: a guy and then one of our guys threw it
• 46:55
  Speaker 3: to him and then he got like X number of
• 46:57
  Speaker 3: swings and then you know, home run derby.
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and uh but.
• 47:01
  Speaker 3: It was fun stuff like that, you know, the one
• 47:04
  Speaker 3: the first with Malarkey's one year was that bowling twenty twelve.
• 47:09
  Speaker 4: I think Malarky was paintball. Was that eleven? Was was bowling?
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: What it was? Gus Gus did it a few times
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: with us.
• 47:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but we used always took the competitions like the
• 47:20
  Speaker 4: lineman gotta catch, like the field, like the punts and everything,
• 47:23
  Speaker 4: drugs machine and I forget jpure, I mean you buys
• 47:26
  Speaker 4: both around when Mel Tucker, former defensive coordinator tried to
• 47:29
  Speaker 4: catch a punt and ended up didn't stretch properly and
• 47:33
  Speaker 4: tore like everything in his knee.
• 47:35
  Speaker 3: Though did he do a knee or did he do
• 47:37
  Speaker 3: an achilles? It was I mean it was very It
• 47:40
  Speaker 3: was one of the very surgery.
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: So it wasn't good. Yeah, yeah, But I mean those.
• 47:44
  Speaker 3: Competitive things like that are just fun. They break the monotony,
• 47:48
  Speaker 3: you know of the of the training camps and then
• 47:50
  Speaker 3: also the O T A is and.
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: It bonds people.
• 47:52
  Speaker 4: You have to find that balance, right, like you have
• 47:54
  Speaker 4: to work hard, but it's also it's the dog days, right,
• 47:57
  Speaker 4: It's it's mundane.
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: It's over and over again. You gotta find something half
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: fun with.
• 48:00
  Speaker 3: We know what they got going on right now again
• 48:01
  Speaker 3: it is the Iron Jaguar. Oh, I can't I can't
• 48:05
  Speaker 3: wait to see that on the Hunt because I thought
• 48:09
  Speaker 3: that that last year that was just brilliant. And I actually,
• 48:12
  Speaker 3: you know, was able to watch some of the competition
• 48:15
  Speaker 3: of the Iron Jaguar last year firsthand, and I got
• 48:20
  Speaker 3: to say, you want to talk about a teammate building concept.
• 48:25
  Speaker 3: Tremendous job by the strength and Conditioning staff of coming
• 48:28
  Speaker 3: up with that idea and implementing it and making it fun.
• 48:32
  Speaker 3: And the interesting thing about that is is last year
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: was the first exposure to offer all those players for
• 48:38
  Speaker 3: the Iron Jaguar. Okay, and they learned a lot. Okay,
• 48:42
  Speaker 3: what type of body type do you want to have
• 48:44
  Speaker 3: on your team? Do you adjust your strategy right? How
• 48:46
  Speaker 3: do you strategize you know, and how you pick your teams,
• 48:49
  Speaker 3: et cetera, et cetera. So there's gonna be a little
• 48:52
  Speaker 3: bit more gamesmanship with that this year that we will
• 48:55
  Speaker 3: see in the hunt is they're.
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: A winner of the Iron Jaguar. Absolutely, So who won
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: it last year? It was Follos team, Luken's team. Okay,
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: you forget who all was on it?
• 49:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't remember the exact team, but and I
• 49:06
  Speaker 3: remember watching the the pull up Hanks Yeah okay, so
• 49:11
  Speaker 3: you you would hang as long as you could and
• 49:14
  Speaker 3: uh it was a tank, No, not tank, it was
• 49:17
  Speaker 3: the other or pick from Rutgers, the running back, Oh
• 49:22
  Speaker 3: Allen Allen Syracuse. So what Quinn Allen is hanging and
• 49:26
  Speaker 3: he's literally he's he gets done hanging and he wins, right,
• 49:30
  Speaker 3: and so what does he do after he wins into
• 49:33
  Speaker 3: like the time clock goes, he starts doing.
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: Pull ups after that. It was a great Jones diet
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: right there. Oh my god. And I saw that, I
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: was like, Wow, I want that guy on my team
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: at Different Austin. I think we're gonna see you again in.
• 49:47
  Speaker 4: A few weeks, right, Yeah, I think you guys are
• 49:49
  Speaker 4: gonna gonna put out the signal again in about a
• 49:50
  Speaker 4: month or so.
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: I think I'll be back in June or something like that.
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: So yeah, we'll look forward.
• 49:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, hopefully it'll be the time we can all wind
• 49:56
  Speaker 4: up together. Because I thought I was doing it tomorrow.
• 49:58
