Jags A.M. Podcast Ep. 192 | Seeing What Works as Jaguars Offense Evolves · The Jacksonville Jaguars Official Podcast Network

0:16
Speaker 1: Welcome to jagsam kind. Annie Steven's here with Brian Sexton
0:18
Speaker 1: and John Oser. We're getting prepared for week twelves. The
0:21
Speaker 1: Jaguars are gonna head out west later this week to
0:23
Speaker 1: take on the Cardinals in Arizona. But let's go over
0:26
Speaker 1: our big things today, brought to you by GEHJA Government
0:28
Speaker 1: Employees Health Association benefits for federal employees and retirees.
0:33
Speaker 2: Big thing number one is slowly but surely.
0:35
Speaker 1: We thought we were getting some of those injured guys
0:37
Speaker 1: back last week, but it looks like it may be
0:39
Speaker 1: a little slower process than we originally thought. Brent Strange
0:42
Speaker 1: one of those guys working his way back, Brian, and
0:45
Speaker 1: we're kind of waiting and is nice to see a
0:47
Speaker 1: dominant win without some of your star players.
0:49
Speaker 2: They work their way.
0:50
Speaker 3: Back, you guys.
0:51
Speaker 4: It's kind of like when the stock market falls and
0:52
Speaker 4: you start buying at a low rate. Eventually it goes
0:55
Speaker 4: back up and all of a sudden you've got more
0:57
Speaker 4: shares at.
0:57
Speaker 3: A higher rate.
0:59
Speaker 4: It's kind of way because you're gonna get bretton Strange
1:01
Speaker 4: back at some point, hopefully this week. You're gonna get
1:04
Speaker 4: Greg Newsom back. You're gonna get Jordan Lewis back and
1:08
Speaker 4: Anton Harrison back, So you know, grabbing wins when your
1:12
Speaker 4: team is far less than full strength and then becoming
1:15
Speaker 4: full strength. Hopefully there's a correlation there. Hopefully it translates
1:19
Speaker 4: into you being rich.
1:22
Speaker 5: Yeah, and they've almost accomplished it, you know. And I
1:26
Speaker 5: get that in the ups and downs of the season.
1:28
Speaker 5: There's panic after a loss and you know, oh, they're terrible,
1:32
Speaker 5: but this is what you have to do. You have
1:35
Speaker 5: to get through your injured stretch, maintaining and staying in it.
1:40
Speaker 5: I feel like the biggest injury is still sitting out
1:42
Speaker 5: there is strange. Jordan Lewis and Murray are up there.
1:46
Speaker 5: They get him back this week, get the running game going,
1:49
Speaker 5: grind out another one against Arizona. Then you feel like
1:52
Speaker 5: you've gotten through it and you can start doing what
1:55
Speaker 5: Brian talked about, which is getting rich in the stock market.
1:57
Speaker 1: Like getting rich, that always sounds good. Big numbers two
2:00
Speaker 1: is seeing what work. Obviously, with a bunch of those injuries,
2:04
Speaker 1: the offenses looks both sides of football, but the offense
2:06
Speaker 1: has looked a lot different than we expected it to
2:08
Speaker 1: look beginning at to start the year. So Trevor Lawrence
2:11
Speaker 1: has had kind of had to adapt different weapons of
2:13
Speaker 1: course available for him. John, but seeing just Jacoby Myers
2:17
Speaker 1: has only been here about two weeks. The chemistry that
2:19
Speaker 1: is there, and we saw a great game out of
2:20
Speaker 1: Parker Washington last week. So how have you seen the
2:23
Speaker 1: offensivevolve a little bit and kind of seeing what works
2:25
Speaker 1: for them right now?
2:26
Speaker 5: Well, it's impressive and it's exactly what they've been doing.
2:29
Speaker 5: If you think back even to when they got here,
2:31
Speaker 5: they didn't know Travis etn was gonna be this kind
2:34
Speaker 5: of a back.
2:35
Speaker 1: Uh.
2:35
Speaker 5: Then you draft two and then okay, now we've got this.
2:39
Speaker 5: The injuries happened and uh BTJ and Diami Brown and
2:42
Speaker 5: Travis Hunter who were supposed to be your guys, uh
2:45
Speaker 5: aren't really factors in the offense right now.
2:47
Speaker 6: But I in the last three weeks.
2:52
Speaker 5: Twenty nine points, thirty five points the other day, uh
2:55
Speaker 5: twenty nine or thirty against the the Raiders.
3:00
Speaker 6: Raiders, all of.
3:01
Speaker 5: A sudden, this offense is doing what you thought it
3:05
Speaker 5: was gonna do, and it's been there's the best three
3:07
Speaker 5: weeks of offense this season.
3:09
Speaker 6: So when you put together a new regime.
3:13
Speaker 5: You have to figure it out as you go and
3:15
Speaker 5: you can tell they're finding the pieces, Brian that are
3:18
Speaker 5: starting to work, and you're starting to wonder, in the
3:21
Speaker 5: last five weeks, can they have some jet fuel in
3:24
Speaker 5: this and really get go.
3:25
Speaker 4: Listen at some point in the season and John, we've
3:28
Speaker 4: done this long enough, You've seen it many many times.
3:30
Speaker 4: You do what you can do, not necessarily what you'd
3:33
Speaker 4: like to do, what the big plan was to do.
3:35
Speaker 4: You do what you can do. Last week they had
3:37
Speaker 4: Quinton Morris on the field, a guy who was called
3:40
Speaker 4: up from the practice squad, who got here during training camp.
3:43
Speaker 3: And if you go and.
3:44
Speaker 4: Watch this view, this end zone view here of Travis
3:48
Speaker 4: Etn's first touchdown. Watch the crushing block he puts on
3:51
Speaker 4: Bud Dupree, who knew he could do that, and he
3:54
Speaker 4: did it several times. In fact, I think in four
3:57
Speaker 4: instances he had blocks that read up ten yard runs
4:01
Speaker 4: or more.
4:02
Speaker 3: He was tremendous.
4:04
Speaker 4: Listen, you do what you can do, Jacoby Myers. They
4:08
Speaker 4: found out what routes he likes. Eventually they will be
4:12
Speaker 4: able to do what they want to do. But until
4:14
Speaker 4: you get your guys back, do what you can do,
4:16
Speaker 4: and ki guys like Quinton Morris and Jacoby Myers, how
4:20
Speaker 4: about Austin Trammell would.
4:21
Speaker 3: A big catch the other day?
4:22
Speaker 4: Do what you can do, and this coaching staff deserves
4:26
Speaker 4: real credit for figuring out out a way to do
4:29
Speaker 4: what they could do against a very good Chargers team.
4:32
Speaker 5: And to that point, I think about this, in the
4:34
Speaker 5: last three games, they'd had stretches where they scored on
4:36
Speaker 5: six straight drives and four out of five drives the
4:39
Speaker 5: other day.
4:40
Speaker 6: It's starting to look like they wanted to.
4:43
Speaker 1: Look no punting, so that's always a good sign as well.
4:46
Speaker 1: So our final big thing today is going to be
4:48
Speaker 1: leading the way. We've talked a lot about leadership. The
4:50
Speaker 1: defense did not play well against the Texans, but they
4:52
Speaker 1: came back with an outstanding performance against the Chargers. And
4:55
Speaker 1: credit to Josh heinz Allen, who you know, the past,
4:58
Speaker 1: Verus has taken a lot of slack and right so
5:00
Speaker 1: because they haven't been living up to Sanderds.
5:02
Speaker 2: They got after Justin Herbert this.
5:04
Speaker 1: Week, and of course Josh Heinzellen now has that sack
5:06
Speaker 1: record for the franchise. What's most important about this, I
5:10
Speaker 1: think Brian you would agree, is this leadership factor and
5:13
Speaker 1: kind of using this moving forward Yeah.
5:15
Speaker 4: You know, leadership can be something that people put too
5:17
Speaker 4: much weight on. Eventually, you have to be a great player,
5:20
Speaker 4: right If you're a great player, you are by default
5:23
Speaker 4: a leader in the locker room. Josh happens to have
5:25
Speaker 4: qualities of both the great player and a guy who's
5:28
Speaker 4: got the natural inclination to lead. Here's what I like
5:31
Speaker 4: the effort he put in last week, the will not
5:33
Speaker 4: quit falling to the ground, gonna get the sack that
5:37
Speaker 4: is contagious. And he talks all the time John about
5:40
Speaker 4: the guys who are on the field with him right now,
5:42
Speaker 4: the guys that Christian Braswell will go back and look
5:45
Speaker 4: at the Iron Jaguar series that they did with the
5:48
Speaker 4: coaching staff and the personal or the performance staff back
5:51
Speaker 4: in the spring.
5:52
Speaker 3: Josh will point out that a lot of the guys
5:54
Speaker 3: who are contributing right now were.
5:55
Speaker 4: Guys that exceled back then, and Josh believes in them.
6:00
Speaker 4: This team believes in him, He believes in those guys.
6:03
Speaker 4: I just think that there's a fuel on that defensive
6:05
Speaker 4: side to go out and do it again this week
6:07
Speaker 4: because of Josh heinz Allen.
6:09
Speaker 5: Yeah, sometimes in a long season need to reset. It
6:14
Speaker 5: felt like the defensive front, especially after the Houston Texans game,
6:18
Speaker 5: really said you know what, whatever was going on before,
6:22
Speaker 5: let's get started now. And it was an impressive effort
6:25
Speaker 5: against the Chargers. They need that sort maybe not to
6:29
Speaker 5: that level, but they need disruption from that group going forward.
6:33
Speaker 5: This is a big week because the whole theme to
6:36
Speaker 5: me this week is, look, it was great to do
6:38
Speaker 5: it once, you gotta do it again, and especially the
6:41
Speaker 5: defensive front has to do it again.
6:42
Speaker 6: You gotta build on what happened on Sunday.
6:44
Speaker 2: Stay with's here on jag Zam.
6:45
Speaker 1: We're gonna do a little this or that as we
6:47
Speaker 1: look ahead to this week's patch up against the Cardinals.
6:58
Speaker 1: Exam brought to you by the Fields Auto Groups Field's
7:00
Speaker 1: First Jackson, those premier luxury Auto group head over two
7:03
Speaker 1: Fields Auto dot Com.
7:05
Speaker 3: This O.
7:08
Speaker 2: This welcome back to jagsza I. We're gonna play a
7:12
Speaker 2: little this or that.
7:13
Speaker 1: We're looking ahead but kind of also just assessing where
7:15
Speaker 1: the team is at right now.
7:16
Speaker 2: It's week twelve. They're very much in the playoff picture
7:18
Speaker 2: at this point.
7:19
Speaker 1: Got a big AFC win over the Chargers that could
7:22
Speaker 1: kind of be used maybe potentially with tigh breakers.
7:24
Speaker 2: They have one over the Chiefs as well.
7:26
Speaker 1: So when we kind of look ahead, let's Brian, we
7:29
Speaker 1: were talking about this this morning.
7:32
Speaker 2: This game against the Chargers.
7:34
Speaker 1: Maybe is a game that they don't win in the
7:36
Speaker 1: previous years, right, especially like the importance that we're playing.
7:39
Speaker 3: Dragon Wars never won those games?
7:41
Speaker 2: Right?
7:41
Speaker 1: So are we officially the new Jags at this point?
7:44
Speaker 1: Are we still saying old Jags?
7:45
Speaker 3: You know what I say?
7:45
Speaker 1: And will this Cardinals game proved one or both one
7:48
Speaker 1: or either of the other?
7:49
Speaker 2: Correct?
7:49
Speaker 4: And I'm sure you both have had this conversation, But
7:51
Speaker 4: it's those Jags and these Jags, right, have it in
7:54
Speaker 4: the aisle at Public's, you know, walking on the beach,
7:57
Speaker 4: wherever you're at.
7:57
Speaker 3: People want to know if this team is these.
8:01
Speaker 4: Jags, the team that played on Sunday or those Jags
8:04
Speaker 4: previous Jaguars teams that A wouldn't show up for a
8:08
Speaker 4: game like this and then B wouldn't follow up John
8:11
Speaker 4: with a game like this. And the best example I
8:13
Speaker 4: can give you is the end of twenty twenty three, right,
8:16
Speaker 4: I mean, you have a game you should win, you
8:17
Speaker 4: have the playoffs on the line, and you go to Tennessee.
8:20
Speaker 4: They are a one trick pony. It was Mike Grabel's
8:22
Speaker 4: final game and all they do was run the ball.
8:25
Speaker 4: And all you knew you had to stop was Derrick
8:27
Speaker 4: Henry and those Jags didn't do it.
8:31
Speaker 3: They didn't do it. So is it these Jags? Do?
8:36
Speaker 4: We believe that this team is Liam Cohen's team and
8:39
Speaker 4: they play his way and they're going to avoid the
8:41
Speaker 4: mistakes of those Jags, these versus those john What do
8:45
Speaker 4: you see?
8:46
Speaker 5: I don't think there's any questions these Jags. I thought
8:50
Speaker 5: that all year, and I would have thought that even
8:51
Speaker 5: for the San Diego I mean the Yes Sargers.
8:53
Speaker 6: Can still say San Diego too, just because of this.
8:57
Speaker 5: They're still beat up right now and it's still the NFL,
9:01
Speaker 5: so you don't know what's gonna happen on Sunday. But
9:02
Speaker 5: their response, this team has fought and punched all year.
9:06
Speaker 5: They're six and four. It's an up and down week
9:08
Speaker 5: and week league. But you're six and four and you've
9:10
Speaker 5: beaten the Chiefs, You've beaten the forty nine ers, you
9:12
Speaker 5: beat the Panthers, you've beaten the Texans, and you've eat
9:15
Speaker 5: in the charters.
9:15
Speaker 6: All of those teams are.
9:16
Speaker 3: About five hundred.
9:17
Speaker 5: They have a strong strength of whatever. All those things,
9:21
Speaker 5: they're good. I think they'll play well on Sunday. If
9:26
Speaker 5: they don't get it, I think it's because they're still
9:29
Speaker 5: coming back.
9:30
Speaker 6: There's still some flaws.
9:31
Speaker 5: The secondary is still hurt, there's still some things that
9:33
Speaker 5: they have not been able to get right since they.
9:35
Speaker 3: Started all this.
9:36
Speaker 6: But to me, they're a new franchise.
9:40
Speaker 3: They're good.
9:41
Speaker 5: No matter what happens Sunday, I think they'll win. I
9:43
Speaker 5: think they're gonna go on a little run. I think
9:44
Speaker 5: they're gonna get in and they're gonna start proving it.
9:47
Speaker 5: But no matter what happens, this is a different feeling
9:51
Speaker 5: than last year.
9:52
Speaker 3: I agree. I believe in these Jaguars. I still need
9:55
Speaker 3: to see them put.
9:57
Speaker 4: The ghost of those Jaguars to the past and go
9:59
Speaker 4: beat Chacob right. I know he set an NFL record
10:02
Speaker 4: with forty seven completions. The Jaguars have seen him four times,
10:05
Speaker 4: they're one in three against him. He has two touchdowns
10:09
Speaker 4: and three interception.
10:10
Speaker 3: Is a career.
10:11
Speaker 4: Go beat Jacoby Brissett and the Cardinals, and then I
10:14
Speaker 4: think we can officially put those Jaguars too bad.
10:16
Speaker 5: I think the good news on this front is we
10:20
Speaker 5: talked about during big things. They're finding what they are.
10:27
Speaker 5: They knew what they were after Carolina in the first week,
10:29
Speaker 5: and then you get beat up and Travis Hunter's out
10:32
Speaker 5: and BTJ as his issues and you're still trying to
10:34
Speaker 5: figure it out. Last week, I think sort of reset
10:37
Speaker 5: on both sides. We've got to be a defensive line
10:40
Speaker 5: and offensive line oriented team, and it feels like they
10:44
Speaker 5: refound themselves and maybe it's a refresh if you will.
10:49
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I don't know what the outcome will
10:50
Speaker 1: be this week, and I know the energy and I
10:52
Speaker 1: know what we're going to see put out onto the field.
10:54
Speaker 1: After what we saw against the Chargers, I feel like
10:56
Speaker 1: that was kind of a canon moment for me to
10:58
Speaker 1: see what the response was going to be. I have
10:59
Speaker 1: no doubt they'll be prepared, but as mentioned, they do
11:02
Speaker 1: have a lot of injuries, so I'm not entirely sure
11:03
Speaker 1: what it looked like, but I think they'll be ready.
11:04
Speaker 4: Just one quick follow up on that is last week
11:07
Speaker 4: I said it was it was on Liam Cohen. This
11:09
Speaker 4: was his week to make this his team. This week,
11:12
Speaker 4: I think it's on the players, right. I think the
11:15
Speaker 4: energy that you speak of is on them and they've
11:17
Speaker 4: got to bring it to push through and there's enough
11:19
Speaker 4: guys who've been here for those Jags to understand how
11:22
Speaker 4: to make the transition.
11:22
Speaker 2: Absolutely.
11:24
Speaker 1: One other thing that we saw, we saw a great
11:26
Speaker 1: ground game from them. Both Facial Tutent and Travis Etn
11:30
Speaker 1: had great days on the ground. And what was cool
11:32
Speaker 1: about it was the offensive line was banged up, but
11:34
Speaker 1: they didn't get Brent's strange back like they thought, you're
11:37
Speaker 1: starting right tackle. Anton Harrison wasn't able to play. It
11:39
Speaker 1: was Cole Van Lannon and he's been playing very well,
11:42
Speaker 1: kind of plug and play a couple different spots in
11:44
Speaker 1: the line when asked to be out there, John, when
11:47
Speaker 1: you look at the offensive line and what we've seen
11:49
Speaker 1: from Cole Van land and do you think when everyone's
11:52
Speaker 1: back that will see it completely back to the starting
11:54
Speaker 1: fire or do you think they're going to have to
11:55
Speaker 1: try to work him in somewhere.
11:56
Speaker 5: It's it's it's a legitimate question. Do you move somebody
12:02
Speaker 5: over to left tackle Walker Little has struggled? Do you say, Okay,
12:06
Speaker 5: we're gonna go back to our starting five because that's
12:08
Speaker 5: what we have the most chemistry with. I think the
12:11
Speaker 5: good news is Van Lannon's ready. If you see weakness anywhere, he's.
12:16
Speaker 6: Clearly ready to go in quickly.
12:19
Speaker 5: I think on the offensive line, this offensive line, even
12:24
Speaker 5: in the weeks where people thought they played bad, did
12:27
Speaker 5: not really play horribly. There's been situations against the Rams,
12:31
Speaker 5: they struggle the couple, but it's a good offensive line
12:35
Speaker 5: that you feel like in these last seven games unless
12:39
Speaker 5: they're playing one of the dominant defensive lines. I'm talking Seattle,
12:44
Speaker 5: Houston's domin They're gonna see Denver, They're gonna see Denver.
12:47
Speaker 5: But for the most part, this group has been able
12:50
Speaker 5: to play winning offensive line, which I think bodes well
12:53
Speaker 5: over the last seven games. If they stay out of
12:57
Speaker 5: bad down in distance, this team can score points and
13:02
Speaker 5: be in their last seven games.
13:04
Speaker 4: If the identity is the running game, and I think
13:06
Speaker 4: we believe that it is well that I think you
13:08
Speaker 4: stay put Walker Little this week played really well. He
13:11
Speaker 4: is a very good run blocking tackle. If they find
13:15
Speaker 4: themselves in a position where they're having to throw a
13:17
Speaker 4: whole lot and we see struggles like we saw from
13:20
Speaker 4: Walker in Houston. He didn't play very well against Seattle
13:23
Speaker 4: or the Rams, colvi ain Land and showed you he
13:26
Speaker 4: can do it. I think he's a better pass protecting
13:28
Speaker 4: tackle than Walker Little is. But if the identity is
13:31
Speaker 4: run the ball, Walker Little is pretty darn good at that.
13:34
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's definitely a group where I've got my eye out.
13:37
Speaker 1: Just been very impressed with cold a Land and so
13:39
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised either way that they go with
13:41
Speaker 1: that when they are back to full strength.
13:43
Speaker 2: So stay with us here on Jagszam.
13:44
Speaker 1: Coming up at for the break, we'll talk a little
13:45
Speaker 1: bit about what's going on around the NFL. For twelve years,
13:56
Speaker 1: Dring Finder Solms have been proud to call themselves the
13:57
Speaker 1: official hand builder of the Jacksonville Daguars with a bindershomes
14:00
Speaker 1: dot com for all of the available.
14:02
Speaker 2: Inventory and Go Jets. Welcome back into gags Am.
14:06
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk a little bit about the division to
14:08
Speaker 1: keep chabs on everybody. The Titans and Texans faced off
14:10
Speaker 1: last week. Texans able to get a last second win
14:14
Speaker 1: over the Titans, and they did it with quarterback Davis Mills,
14:16
Speaker 1: and it looks like we might see him again this week, Brian,
14:18
Speaker 1: because it's a short week and they're facing off on Thursday.
14:21
Speaker 3: Night against the Bills. Right, and the word is CJ.
14:24
Speaker 4: Stroud is practicing in Houston as much as they practice
14:27
Speaker 4: during the week that you play on Thursday.
14:29
Speaker 3: Night, but he's not expected to play.
14:31
Speaker 4: So that means that the Jaguars fans out there who
14:34
Speaker 4: are watching feel pretty good about the Bills and what
14:38
Speaker 4: they did last week and the way their quarterback's playing
14:41
Speaker 4: against Davis Mills.
14:42
Speaker 5: Yeah, you're at the point of the season where I
14:45
Speaker 5: get it's fun to talk about all this Bills Texans. Yeah,
14:49
Speaker 5: you'd like the Bills to win it to knock the
14:52
Speaker 5: Texans back, But the Bills are also looking like a
14:55
Speaker 5: wildcard team. Yes, so I don't know that either of
14:58
Speaker 5: those teams losing is bad for the Jags. So I
15:04
Speaker 5: think the Bills win that because I think on Thursday
15:06
Speaker 5: night a lot of times, game planning gets out of
15:08
Speaker 5: the window, and the best player in the league is Josh.
15:10
Speaker 5: Heines is Josh Allen, so usually when it's a schoolyard fight,
15:16
Speaker 5: he wins the schoolyard fight.
15:17
Speaker 3: Here's the story.
15:18
Speaker 4: Though we have been talking about meaningful games around Thanksgiving
15:21
Speaker 4: to the end of the year around here for a
15:23
Speaker 4: long time, we haven't been able to talk about him this.
15:25
Speaker 3: If they win, if they lose kind of thing.
15:28
Speaker 4: Is exactly what you want in your fan base as
15:30
Speaker 4: you get towards Christmas. It creates interest in every game
15:33
Speaker 4: every week.
15:34
Speaker 1: You always like to have a stake in each of
15:36
Speaker 1: the games, so that's always exciting. And now the Colts
15:38
Speaker 1: had a bye week last week. Obviously they're off to
15:40
Speaker 1: an amazing start, but they're going to face off against
15:42
Speaker 1: the Chiefs this week and their remaining strength of schedule
15:45
Speaker 1: is the most difficult Number one in the NFL. So
15:48
Speaker 1: they're getting into a tough stretch at a time when
15:50
Speaker 1: the Jaguars are hopefully getting into a little bit easier stretch.
15:54
Speaker 1: So what are we going to see from the Colts
15:55
Speaker 1: now they've got some tougher opponents.
15:57
Speaker 3: The Kansas City's my hometown.
15:58
Speaker 4: I talk to a lot of people out there, and
16:00
Speaker 4: the Kansas City Chiefs fans have become accustomed to playing
16:04
Speaker 4: in the AFC Championship Game.
16:06
Speaker 3: The thought that.
16:07
Speaker 4: They wouldn't be Division champs, as they have been nine
16:10
Speaker 4: consecutive years in a row is absolutely unacceptable to them.
16:14
Speaker 4: Funny because when I grew up there, the Chiefs were terrible.
16:17
Speaker 4: The reality of it is is that you have a
16:19
Speaker 4: very desperate team that if they lose another AFC game,
16:23
Speaker 4: fall further behind, their chances of just making the playoffs become.
16:27
Speaker 3: So much smaller.
16:29
Speaker 4: I expect a desperate, dangerous Kansas City team that John
16:33
Speaker 4: hasn't been desperate or dangerous in Patrick Mahomes' time. With
16:38
Speaker 4: Andy Reid pulling the trigger, I expect this to be
16:40
Speaker 4: heack of the ball game.
16:41
Speaker 5: Yeah, and it can sort of go like both ways
16:45
Speaker 5: in the Chiefs right now. Sometimes these teams that have
16:48
Speaker 5: been great for a long time have these seasons where
16:50
Speaker 5: you keep expecting the old team to show up and
16:54
Speaker 5: then you get to the end of the season.
16:55
Speaker 6: Realize that the old team wasn't there.
16:57
Speaker 5: So I don't necessarily think as long as you have
17:01
Speaker 5: Patrick Mahomes at quarterback that's the case. I think they
17:04
Speaker 5: will win this game.
17:05
Speaker 3: Uh.
17:05
Speaker 5: This week, it's harder to beat the Chiefs. This team
17:10
Speaker 5: did it, So this is that theory doesn't hold that
17:12
Speaker 5: much water. But a division team like the Broncos knows
17:15
Speaker 5: how to play the Chiefs.
17:17
Speaker 3: Uh.
17:17
Speaker 5: If you don't know how to play them, you know
17:19
Speaker 5: how to uh how to play Mahomes.
17:21
Speaker 6: It can be different.
17:22
Speaker 5: So I think the Chiefs have some more punches left
17:24
Speaker 5: in them. Do they have enough punches to get to
17:26
Speaker 5: the end of the season. Uh, their record makes t
17:29
Speaker 5: could make that tough.
17:30
Speaker 4: You know, you covered the Patriots and you grew up
17:32
Speaker 4: in New England, so you can appreciate this. I can
17:34
Speaker 4: remember we went up there in twenty seventeen to practice
17:37
Speaker 4: before preseason game and to see all these kids who
17:39
Speaker 4: were you know, between what eight and twenty that never
17:42
Speaker 4: knew anything but winning, And I can remember thinking, boy,
17:46
Speaker 4: are these kids in for a shock when when twelve
17:49
Speaker 4: decides to hang it up and it's the exact same
17:51
Speaker 4: thing in Kansas City, where they've won three of the last.
17:53
Speaker 3: Six Super Bowls. It it's difficult for you to accept reality.
17:56
Speaker 2: It's expectations for sure.
17:58
Speaker 1: And we will see what that actually looks like, whether
18:01
Speaker 1: the Chiefs can pull another rabbit out of the hat
18:02
Speaker 1: and kind of turned clock back a little bit.
18:04
Speaker 4: By the way, because of your history with the Patriots,
18:06
Speaker 4: what did you think of those uniforms they wore last week?
18:08
Speaker 2: I didn't hate them.
18:09
Speaker 1: They weren't my favorite, but I don't like them in general,
18:11
Speaker 1: because I think every division is going to get some
18:14
Speaker 1: muted version of that. Because what the Bills had the
18:17
Speaker 1: ice breaker ones.
18:18
Speaker 3: Yeah, I forget what they call it.
18:20
Speaker 2: It's it just looked a little, I don't know, it's
18:23
Speaker 2: a little.
18:24
Speaker 1: The State Trooper blue is very similar, So it was
18:26
Speaker 1: it was just an interesting color combination. But I'm sure
18:29
Speaker 1: we'll have our version next year and then I'll have
18:31
Speaker 1: to vote in on that. But I'm all about the throwbacks,
18:34
Speaker 1: So I'm just I'm gonna say as many as as
18:36
Speaker 1: many Jaguars throwbacks, I'm very, very strong. The bright red
18:41
Speaker 1: pat the Patriots are my other favorite.
18:43
Speaker 5: Yeah, those are the ones that they already used. But
18:45
Speaker 5: I'm an old man.
18:47
Speaker 3: Get off my lawn, stay.
18:49
Speaker 2: With us here.
18:49

19:27
Speaker 1: For two weeks and then back to face off against
19:30
Speaker 1: the Colts and the Jets, and then.
19:33
Speaker 3: Tightens at the end of the year.
19:34
Speaker 1: Tightens at the end of the year. So it's getting
19:36
Speaker 1: down to that time, which is crazy to think about.
19:38
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's schedule shapes up to where you can start
19:43
Speaker 5: having some exciting stuff at home if you take care
19:44
Speaker 5: of business.
19:45
Speaker 1: Yeah, who are you talking to this week or what are.
19:48
Speaker 2: You looking forward to?
19:49
Speaker 3: Talking offensive line? Sean Sareht, the offensive line coach. We'll
19:52
Speaker 3: ask him about about how.
19:54
Speaker 4: Walker's playing and how Cole Van Landon factors into that,
19:57
Speaker 4: and whyatt Mylem got some time on the field against
20:00
Speaker 4: the Chargers. And you know, I've been told that once
20:03
Speaker 4: he gets into the lineup, it's gonna be tough to
20:04
Speaker 4: take him out because they think so highly of him
20:06
Speaker 4: and he's proven to them that he has got the
20:08
Speaker 4: skills to be a long term starter in Jacksonville. So
20:12
Speaker 4: there's some reason for optimism. And as Sean mentioned, they
20:14
Speaker 4: haven't played that bad. I mean, they gave him some
20:16
Speaker 4: sacks and some of those were on the quarterback.
20:18
Speaker 5: Yeah, you get the idea with Mylon that if you're
20:21
Speaker 5: playing guard, don't get hurt because he's probably not going
20:26
Speaker 5: to give up his spot once he's in there, maybe
20:28
Speaker 5: not in the short term, in long and he's gonna
20:30
Speaker 5: be the guy. I'm talking to Antonio Johnson for the
20:32
Speaker 5: Ozone podcast and I'm not sure I ever talked to
20:35
Speaker 5: him in that capacity.
20:36
Speaker 3: I'm looking forward to.
20:37
Speaker 4: A great story and it was well, no, no, I
20:39
Speaker 4: was just gonna tell you I talked to him last
20:41
Speaker 4: year and he grew up.
20:43
Speaker 3: A part of his childhood was living in a car,
20:45
Speaker 3: and he's St. Louis, Illinois, which if you.
20:46
Speaker 4: Don't realize, he's one of the toughest cities, one of
20:49
Speaker 4: the toughest places to live and grow up. I think
20:52
Speaker 4: he's a tremendous story and he's a pretty well spoken kid, very.
20:54
Speaker 2: Well talent, and a great one with Jacobe Myers last week.
20:57
Speaker 2: If you had the Ozone pod, I'm.
20:59
Speaker 1: Checking in with the franchise leader in sacks, Josh Hanzellen
