- 0:05Speaker 1: back into the arms and the Jaguars Jaguars. Did you
- 0:15Speaker 1: like Jackquars? Did you go? Jaguars Drive Time barn and
- 0:21Speaker 1: Sex Text Hay Ashley Sell of Jaguars Dry A Time
- 0:27Speaker 1: starts right now. Good morning, and welcome in Jaguars Drive
- 0:31Speaker 1: Time Thursday Morning, brought to you by Fields Auto Group, myself,
- 0:35Speaker 1: Brian Sexton and Reggie Hayward here with you today. I
- 0:38Speaker 1: couldn't help but giggle at that play call that was, Oh,
- 0:42Speaker 1: it's Mike Thomas in two thousand. Yeah, I've never heard
- 0:44Speaker 1: that one before. You're just for fun. Google Mike and
- 0:47Speaker 1: Mike and that play called what they did to it?
- 0:49Speaker 1: And they I've heard this story. They couldn't have done
- 0:52Speaker 1: it without cursing. So they inserted a bunch of curse
- 0:54Speaker 1: B B B B B. And my mom heard it
- 0:58Speaker 1: and she called she I can't believe they fired you yet,
- 1:05Speaker 1: that I didn't do that, Mom. Don't you know better?
- 1:09Speaker 1: You raised me? Do you think I learned those words?
- 1:12Speaker 1: So we've talked quite a bit about the run defense
- 1:15Speaker 1: this week, but we have a whole different perspective. Reggie
- 1:18Speaker 1: with you here today. I have a feeling we'll be
- 1:20Speaker 1: touching on that a little bit because there's some need
- 1:23Speaker 1: for improvement. We'll take a closer look at it, you know,
- 1:26Speaker 1: and try to see what fans don't see when they
- 1:29Speaker 1: watch the guy. Yeah, because if we see it, we
- 1:32Speaker 1: know you see it. That's for sure. It's time with
- 1:35Speaker 1: that tape. Is all it takes for you? Yes, absolutely,
- 1:38Speaker 1: all right, let's get into big things. Big thing one
- 1:40Speaker 1: is a very big thing. Derrick Henry versus the Jaguars
- 1:44Speaker 1: last game earlier this season. The Jags held him to
- 1:46Speaker 1: forty four yards two point six yards per carry. The
- 1:50Speaker 1: defense says, with this guy, you have to tackle him
- 1:52Speaker 1: a little bit differently. You got you gotta you know
- 1:56Speaker 1: what I'm saying. You gotta you gotta hit him. You
- 1:58Speaker 1: gotta bring it. You gotta bring a lot of people
- 1:59Speaker 1: to the all. You know what I mean. It's you know,
- 2:02Speaker 1: you gotta you gotta play like how you play in
- 2:05Speaker 1: the backyard. I gotta you gotta hit them, you know
- 2:07Speaker 1: what I mean, ain't know, you know, passive bright and
- 2:09Speaker 1: you gotta you gotta run through them, you know, hit
- 2:12Speaker 1: them low, but not too low. You know. It's just
- 2:15Speaker 1: like I said, you gotta smack that. You're a big dude.
- 2:18Speaker 1: You're a big d I respect that, but you gotta
- 2:20Speaker 1: we gotta bring our thing, uh, backyard football. Big thing
- 2:25Speaker 1: things like too sorry is throw to run a run.
- 2:27Speaker 1: First team uses the run to set up everything else.
- 2:30Speaker 1: We didn't see much of that last week. We will
- 2:33Speaker 1: talk now about whether we will see it this week
- 2:35Speaker 1: and if the Jaguar should use it to their advantage.
- 2:38Speaker 1: And big thing three is focus. What is the focus
- 2:41Speaker 1: this week? Are they still talking playoffs? Are they trying
- 2:44Speaker 1: to just get one win? Nick Foles, for one, is
- 2:47Speaker 1: focusing on not panicking in this locker room. Not pressing
- 2:51Speaker 1: means don't freak out. Um, I'll let everyone else freak out.
- 2:54Speaker 1: I'm not going to freak out. I'm gonna continue to
- 2:55Speaker 1: come to work. I'm gonna continue to you know, believe
- 2:57Speaker 1: my teammates. Um, you know, I don't come in here
- 2:59Speaker 1: and yeah, it's just gonna happen. And when we put
- 3:01Speaker 1: in a lot of work and you know, coaches are
- 3:03Speaker 1: you know, working hard towards the game plan, we go
- 3:05Speaker 1: out there and practice to fine tune it. Um, it's
- 3:08Speaker 1: just one of those things where it's just gotta be
- 3:10Speaker 1: ingrained and who you are. So let's touch on big
- 3:14Speaker 1: thing three first. Actually, because everyone we're watching that press
- 3:19Speaker 1: conferences and fans are what do you mean, how could
- 3:20Speaker 1: you not be freaking out your four and six? But
- 3:23Speaker 1: being in that locker room yesterday, there really isn't much
- 3:26Speaker 1: freaking out going on at all. They know what they
- 3:28Speaker 1: have to fix. It's obvious what the problems are. They're
- 3:31Speaker 1: confident they can get it done this. But here's what
- 3:33Speaker 1: I think. I think they're freaking out. People are freaking
- 3:35Speaker 1: out not because they lost. I mean, the Colts and
- 3:39Speaker 1: the Texans are good football teams. It's the way they lost.
- 3:42Speaker 1: It's that inability to do anything offensively. The last two
- 3:47Speaker 1: games they really scored one touchdown. The second touchdown was
- 3:51Speaker 1: when the game was well decided. One touchdown. The last
- 3:54Speaker 1: two games in games that we knew we're gonna be
- 3:56Speaker 1: really important to the season. The freakout is that they lost.
- 4:00Speaker 1: If they go play well on Sunday, I think people
- 4:02Speaker 1: calm down. I don't know that they play well and
- 4:06Speaker 1: lose that people calm down. Although I do think that
- 4:09Speaker 1: people are resigned to the fact that this is a
- 4:12Speaker 1: borderline playoff team. As I said to you, I'd be
- 4:16Speaker 1: shooting at eight eight. Yeah, I think I'm freaking out.
- 4:19Speaker 1: I mean if I mean, if you're not in the
- 4:23Speaker 1: locker room and you don't see your record, you know,
- 4:26Speaker 1: you're you're you're losing games and you're not even competing.
- 4:29Speaker 1: You're not competing, and this is a time where you
- 4:31Speaker 1: have to say, hey, what's going on. Um, who's really
- 4:35Speaker 1: in this thing? Who's really trying to win this thing?
- 4:38Speaker 1: And let's go. I would be panicking, it's time to
- 4:41Speaker 1: hit the button. When do you hit the button? Do
- 4:42Speaker 1: you lose another game? Didn't you hit the button? No,
- 4:45Speaker 1: hit the button right now, let's rally the troops. Let's
- 4:48Speaker 1: win some games. And that's all. Freak out hit the button?
- 4:53Speaker 1: Who does that mean? Because the quarterback is not doing that,
- 4:57Speaker 1: don't I don't know if he's just giving us sound
- 4:59Speaker 1: bites like he could, you know, he just let's be honest,
- 5:03Speaker 1: he was hurt, he came back for one game, he
- 5:06Speaker 1: didn't play that well. But he's just getting back in
- 5:09Speaker 1: the mix. Okay, So maybe he's not freaking out. Maybe
- 5:11Speaker 1: he shouldn't. He doesn't feel a pressure because it's like, dude,
- 5:14Speaker 1: I've been out most of the season, so I shouldn't
- 5:16Speaker 1: have to come back and freak out. But I think that,
- 5:20Speaker 1: you know, some team captor some leader on the team
- 5:23Speaker 1: needs to say, hey, what's going on? How can we
- 5:27Speaker 1: fix this? And we need to do it right now?
- 5:29Speaker 1: The salvage this season. Should you tell me, um, if
- 5:32Speaker 1: you were that guy, what would you say? What What
- 5:36Speaker 1: can a players say to another player or another group
- 5:39Speaker 1: of players that would inspire action rather than an IRA.
- 5:41Speaker 1: I don't know if you I don't know if you
- 5:43Speaker 1: bring everybody in, but when you look at the family,
- 5:46Speaker 1: you see who's messing up and who's making mistakes, you
- 5:48Speaker 1: kind of say, hey, man, look, you know, I know
- 5:50Speaker 1: you're doing your best, but I'm gonna need a little more.
- 5:53Speaker 1: We need a little more because it's some plays that
- 5:56Speaker 1: you know, as professionals, we have to make. And I'm
- 6:00Speaker 1: talking strictly on defense. You have to tackle people and
- 6:04Speaker 1: it may not be a tackle for a loss, it
- 6:06Speaker 1: may not be a sack, but we cannot give up
- 6:09Speaker 1: touchdowns and you just have If you're a captain, that
- 6:12Speaker 1: means people respect you on the team and they look
- 6:15Speaker 1: for you to do leadership type deals and sometimes being
- 6:17Speaker 1: a captain is uncomfortable, and you gotta have these conversations
- 6:20Speaker 1: with people, and then the coaches. The coaches should be
- 6:23Speaker 1: the meetings should be uncomfortable. Players should be sitting in
- 6:26Speaker 1: the seat. Like when we had a bad game, I
- 6:28Speaker 1: would sit in my seat and I'm like, man, I
- 6:29Speaker 1: do not want to watch this film today because I
- 6:33Speaker 1: know I'm gonna hear and I'm gonna get pointed out
- 6:35Speaker 1: and he's gonna keep rewinding it and showing me that
- 6:37Speaker 1: my technique is wrong and showing me what I should
- 6:39Speaker 1: be doing and what I'm not doing. And they need
- 6:41Speaker 1: to have those conversations. So doesn't sound like fun time.
- 6:45Speaker 1: It doesn't. It shouldn't be. It shouldn't be a fun time.
- 6:47Speaker 1: They should feel the pressure from, you know, not winning.
- 6:51Speaker 1: They should feel the pressure from the coaching staff, and
- 6:53Speaker 1: they should put a lot of pressure on themselves because
- 6:55Speaker 1: we're professionals. They're getting paid a handsome amount of money
- 6:58Speaker 1: to win games. You should last Treek that you would
- 7:00Speaker 1: probably at this point call guys over or that you
- 7:04Speaker 1: guys you know, Chevin, when you were winning, you called
- 7:06Speaker 1: You had no coaches in the room, it was just
- 7:08Speaker 1: the players. You watched the tape and you were real
- 7:11Speaker 1: with one another. Would you do that this week if
- 7:14Speaker 1: you were on the defensive line, if you were in
- 7:15Speaker 1: the defensive meeting room, Yeah, just be the week to
- 7:18Speaker 1: do that. They should have been doing that because every
- 7:21Speaker 1: unit should be really tight. Every unit should be typed
- 7:24Speaker 1: the dbs, the linebackers, the d line like, we're a
- 7:27Speaker 1: tight unit and we can you know, we can push
- 7:31Speaker 1: away any fakeness and we can be straightforward on one another.
- 7:34Speaker 1: And that's the only way we're gonna get better, because
- 7:36Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie to you and tell you that
- 7:37Speaker 1: you did a great job when you're actually stinking it up.
- 7:40Speaker 1: And let me be able to do that without you
- 7:42Speaker 1: getting so mad and so sensitive that you know, you
- 7:44Speaker 1: withdraw from the tape. So they should be doing that already.
- 7:48Speaker 1: Now I'm asking you. Do we cross over into other
- 7:52Speaker 1: position groups? Now? Now does the dB come to a
- 7:55Speaker 1: linebacker and say, hey, man, you're messing up. That's a
- 7:58Speaker 1: hard thing. That's a harder thing to do because they
- 8:00Speaker 1: don't sit in that same individual meeting room and they
- 8:02Speaker 1: don't keep each other accountable. You know, what what you've
- 8:05Speaker 1: seen and what people don't necessarily see, because when you're
- 8:08Speaker 1: up in the stands. You can't hear everything that's going
- 8:10Speaker 1: on around on the sidelines, but you do see guys
- 8:13Speaker 1: coming back up and forth to the group. A defensive
- 8:15Speaker 1: back that says, hey, you know, this defensive lineman was
- 8:17Speaker 1: out of his gap. And then you see a safety
- 8:19Speaker 1: come back down over to the linebackers. You're supposed to
- 8:22Speaker 1: cover this title and oh no, and and we've seen
- 8:25Speaker 1: that in recent weeks. And you do see a little
- 8:27Speaker 1: sensitivity when you do see guys going what like you're
- 8:32Speaker 1: crossing boundaries, Like I get enough, I get enough flak
- 8:35Speaker 1: from my coach and my my position grew like stay
- 8:38Speaker 1: over there. You don't know what you know. So but
- 8:41Speaker 1: if you're mature enough and you can deal with responsibility
- 8:44Speaker 1: of making mistakes, then you're like, I got you, I'm sorry,
- 8:48Speaker 1: I need to do better. Let me get my job done.
- 8:50Speaker 1: And we'll see. We're gonna talk plenty about um stopping
- 8:54Speaker 1: the run. So let's focus real quick on running the football.
- 8:59Speaker 1: So this team team doesn't have a blocking fullback, and
- 9:04Speaker 1: they don't have, you know, a tight end that that
- 9:07Speaker 1: they can rely on that that's a big part of
- 9:09Speaker 1: their running game. And they have a quarterback who's more
- 9:11Speaker 1: comfortable in the pocket. I'm sorry, in the shotgun than
- 9:15Speaker 1: necessarily under center. I say that that's just my perception.
- 9:18Speaker 1: If Nick we're here, he might say that's not true,
- 9:20Speaker 1: but he plays more out of the shotgun. So do
- 9:25Speaker 1: they just embrace their personality as Hey, we're throwing the
- 9:27Speaker 1: ball and and go with a run off that that's
- 9:30Speaker 1: gonna piss Leonard for net off because he wants to
- 9:32Speaker 1: run the ball. How do you reconcile what they say
- 9:35Speaker 1: they want to do with what they're built to do.
- 9:37Speaker 1: What do you see when you look at this football
- 9:39Speaker 1: team right now? When I look at the team, I
- 9:41Speaker 1: look at how do we win for that? Running the ball?
- 9:44Speaker 1: All right? We won games running in any NFL team,
- 9:47Speaker 1: if you look through the history of the NFL, you
- 9:49Speaker 1: win by running the ball. Right. We came out in
- 9:52Speaker 1: the first series of this game. It was a nice
- 9:54Speaker 1: mixture of running pass. We put up a touchdown, and
- 9:57Speaker 1: then for some strange reason, we got away from that.
- 10:00Speaker 1: We didn't feed for that. We started throwing the ball
- 10:03Speaker 1: and went to this whole pro style football style, and
- 10:06Speaker 1: it we got a hand where we just had to
- 10:08Speaker 1: throw the ball. I would run the ball and then
- 10:11Speaker 1: set up the pass because it's easier to throw the
- 10:14Speaker 1: ball off play action than it is to sit back
- 10:17Speaker 1: in the end shotgun with empty backfield where I receive
- 10:21Speaker 1: us everywhere, and then you have to recoverage. I don't
- 10:24Speaker 1: want Nick to do that. I want them to have
- 10:27Speaker 1: to suck in against the run. Him snatched the ball
- 10:29Speaker 1: out play action, throw it to a spot where I
- 10:31Speaker 1: really to catch the ball first out. And that seems
- 10:34Speaker 1: to be something that Nick is comfortable with that that
- 10:37Speaker 1: that was what he did in the preseason when we
- 10:41Speaker 1: saw him in Miami, That's what he did when he
- 10:43Speaker 1: was with the Eagles. So my question is do you
- 10:46Speaker 1: just line up and run, run, run, even though you
- 10:51Speaker 1: don't necessarily have the tight end, or do you change
- 10:54Speaker 1: the formation to try to run from it? How would
- 10:56Speaker 1: you how would you approach it based on Well, if
- 10:59Speaker 1: you don't have the blocking, like you said, you don't
- 11:01Speaker 1: have to tight end and you don't how the individuals
- 11:03Speaker 1: to block. To run the ball, you have to run misdirection.
- 11:05Speaker 1: You have to trick people, so you know, everyone go
- 11:07Speaker 1: this way and we're gonna run the ball that way,
- 11:09Speaker 1: and then we'll see if we can get some yards.
- 11:11Speaker 1: If you can't do that line up and just try
- 11:13Speaker 1: to shove it down their throat. And if that doesn't work,
- 11:17Speaker 1: you're not gonna win. Yeah, you're not gonna win because
- 11:20Speaker 1: you have to move the ball on the ground. You
- 11:21Speaker 1: cannot be one dimensional. And if you are one dimensional,
- 11:26Speaker 1: run the ball. Like the Coats, they were one dimensional.
- 11:28Speaker 1: We couldn't stop the run, right, They didn't have to
- 11:30Speaker 1: throw the ball at each other and go why are
- 11:34Speaker 1: they throwing? I mean because when you run the ball,
- 11:37Speaker 1: you you you keep time, my possession, you make the
- 11:40Speaker 1: defense tired, you control the game, and then you put
- 11:43Speaker 1: points on the board. Well, and if you throw the
- 11:45Speaker 1: ball against this team, you're facing Klais Campbell, Unique and
- 11:48Speaker 1: Goquin and Josh Allen the best they have to offer.
- 11:51Speaker 1: If you can't stop the run, you can't do what
- 11:53Speaker 1: you do best. You can't and that's pass rush. And
- 11:57Speaker 1: I'm surprised we even got any secks because those I
- 12:00Speaker 1: didn't have to and didn't have to throw the ball.
- 12:02Speaker 1: I mean, if it was third and long, of course
- 12:04Speaker 1: that's a situation. But they didn't come out of you know,
- 12:07Speaker 1: first and ten throwing the ball. It was just like
- 12:12Speaker 1: what was the average like five plus yards will run
- 12:15Speaker 1: like one point it was eight point four. Yeah, well
- 12:17Speaker 1: would I run. I'm not even an NFL coach. I
- 12:19Speaker 1: wouldn't even run the ball. I'm like, what what other
- 12:21Speaker 1: run plays? We have? Try to new play? All right,
- 12:25Speaker 1: So let's touch on big thing one before we take
- 12:27Speaker 1: a break, and that is Derrick Henry. And I almost
- 12:30Speaker 1: got the vibe in the locker room. I asked a
- 12:31Speaker 1: few defensive guys about stopping him and what's different, and
- 12:34Speaker 1: I almost got the attitude that he's almost overhyped in
- 12:38Speaker 1: this locker room because someone like naj Good told me, yeah,
- 12:41Speaker 1: he's good, but we've stopped him before. I've stopped him
- 12:43Speaker 1: before with other teams I've been on. He's a running back,
- 12:46Speaker 1: he's got two legs, just like everyone else. I think
- 12:48Speaker 1: they're getting tired of everyone over hyping this guy up. Well,
- 12:51Speaker 1: he's coming off of a d eight yard performance against
- 12:53Speaker 1: Kansas City, and Kansas City is their strength, is not
- 12:56Speaker 1: their defense, although they had the four interceptions the other night.
- 12:59Speaker 1: He's six four, he's to sixty. Now, he's not as
- 13:01Speaker 1: big as you, redg but if he walked in the room,
- 13:03Speaker 1: you wouldn't necessarily know he's one of those guys who
- 13:06Speaker 1: looks bigger than he necessarily is. The last time the
- 13:09Speaker 1: Jaguars faced him, he had forty four rushing yards the
- 13:12Speaker 1: average two point six per carry. Here's how they stopped him.
- 13:15Speaker 1: They got an early lead, they forced the Titans to
- 13:17Speaker 1: get away from the run, and then they didn't have
- 13:19Speaker 1: to see him very much. And how can you be
- 13:22Speaker 1: confident of stopping somebody when you just gave up how
- 13:25Speaker 1: many yards on the ground last week and they had
- 13:28Speaker 1: two individuals run for a hundred yards. Like if I
- 13:32Speaker 1: was in the locker room, I would say, look, he's
- 13:34Speaker 1: a huge challenge and we got to prepare properly for
- 13:37Speaker 1: him because we're losing because everyone's watching film and how
- 13:40Speaker 1: to run against us, and and then that's their game plan.
- 13:43Speaker 1: They're not coming now trying to throw the ball. They
- 13:45Speaker 1: running the ball down our throats. And now we have
- 13:48Speaker 1: a great running back who's big and tough, and they're
- 13:50Speaker 1: gonna try to use the same game plan these other
- 13:54Speaker 1: teams have been using against us, the run of ball.
- 13:56Speaker 1: So let's uh, let's get ready for a hard, mean
- 14:00Speaker 1: practice and get ready to stop the run because they're
- 14:02Speaker 1: gonna give us a large dose of it that you
- 14:04Speaker 1: just said it the key there, and Doug Brown has
- 14:07Speaker 1: talked about finding ways to practice tackling and taking guys
- 14:10Speaker 1: to the ground without getting guys hurt. But to me,
- 14:13Speaker 1: the biggest part of practice this week is some physical
- 14:16Speaker 1: at the line of scrimmage because your offensive and defensive
- 14:18Speaker 1: linemen are gonna have to win the battle. And the
- 14:20Speaker 1: only way I think is to practice that. And you
- 14:24Speaker 1: can only do it so much. Yeah, I mean, the
- 14:25Speaker 1: NFL has changed and it's it's you know, it's catered to,
- 14:28Speaker 1: you know, stopping people from getting concussions and stuff like that.
- 14:31Speaker 1: But I don't know if you had to put somebody
- 14:33Speaker 1: behind a bag and you guys hit bags or somebody
- 14:36Speaker 1: you need to get back to. Like it's almost like
- 14:38Speaker 1: baseball players when they're they're in the hidden you know,
- 14:40Speaker 1: struggle or slump. They hit the ball on the te
- 14:43Speaker 1: right and these are growing in hidding off of a
- 14:45Speaker 1: t and like with football, like when we're not playing
- 14:48Speaker 1: physical and we're not tackling, well, we need to practice
- 14:51Speaker 1: that and they need to go back to just fundamentals
- 14:54Speaker 1: of you know, putting your shoulder pad on a proper
- 14:57Speaker 1: set and taking someone down. Because we're missing a lot
- 14:59Speaker 1: of tackles and talking about that. You hear fans freaking
- 15:02Speaker 1: out about not the fundamentals again halfway through the season.
- 15:05Speaker 1: You don't want to hear the word going back to fundamentals.
- 15:07Speaker 1: But are right now? Yeah, I mean, like, how are
- 15:10Speaker 1: we losing We're losing on We're not losing on flee
- 15:12Speaker 1: flickers and reverses. We're losing on in between the tackles. Yes,
- 15:17Speaker 1: that's that's just basic football, the way it is, the

- 17:11Speaker 1: Your commitment to keeping Sunday laundry free is truly inspiring,
- 17:16Speaker 1: and Tide is committed to your commitment. You're making the
- 17:19Speaker 1: world a better place for our rookies one week at
- 17:22Speaker 1: a time. They grow up so fast. Remember, there are
- 17:26Speaker 1: plenty of other days of the week, and Tied is
- 17:29Speaker 1: America's number one detergent for all of them. If it's
- 17:32Speaker 1: laundry night, it's got to be tied. We're back Jack's
- 17:42Speaker 1: Drive Time Thursday Morning, brought to you by Fields Auto Groove, myself,
- 17:46Speaker 1: Brian and Reggie Hayward here, and we're gonna go around
- 17:49Speaker 1: the locker room. First up, of course, is Nick Foles,
- 17:53Speaker 1: and a lot of guys in the locker room said,
- 17:55Speaker 1: you know, playoff push Nick Foles. That's great in November, December, January.
- 17:59Speaker 1: We know he's successful. Let's also remember that he's human
- 18:02Speaker 1: and coming back from a major injury. You're asking the
- 18:08Speaker 1: guy to step in week eleven, you know, after having
- 18:14Speaker 1: a serious injury and asking them to, you know, take
- 18:17Speaker 1: us to the Promised Land. And I mean he has
- 18:19Speaker 1: those expectations for himself too, But you know, you have
- 18:22Speaker 1: to work your way in. The great thing about DJ
- 18:26Speaker 1: Shark is coming off a two touchdown game, and he
- 18:28Speaker 1: was telling me after that things he could have done
- 18:30Speaker 1: better to help Nick Foles on the offense out. But
- 18:33Speaker 1: there were still things he could have fixed and mistakes
- 18:35Speaker 1: he made that effected the team. You know, John d. Philippo,
- 18:39Speaker 1: the offensive coordinator, he tried to tamper down expectations last week.
- 18:42Speaker 1: I mean there was such I don't know whether it
- 18:45Speaker 1: was victim to it too well, because you know, you're
- 18:48Speaker 1: putting a quarterback that everybody enjoyed watching on the sideline.
- 18:52Speaker 1: So there must be something really special here to put
- 18:55Speaker 1: Gardner Minshewa, you know, besides the fact that they committed
- 18:58Speaker 1: to him and gave him the financial package that they did,
- 19:01Speaker 1: and he tried to say, look, he's gonna take some time,
- 19:04Speaker 1: and he's gonna take him some time. So the question
- 19:05Speaker 1: I have for you is how much better should he
- 19:07Speaker 1: be this week than last one game? You're thinking effort?
- 19:10Speaker 1: Are we still looking at a guy? What should our
- 19:12Speaker 1: expectations be. I'm expecting a little more rust. I mean
- 19:17Speaker 1: some of his passes, even though they were completion right,
- 19:20Speaker 1: were they were a little bit behind. They were a
- 19:22Speaker 1: little off target and and that's just not playing the
- 19:26Speaker 1: loan ball looked, it looks suspect, And I mean some
- 19:30Speaker 1: of the guys were old and they had a step
- 19:32Speaker 1: or two and if he if he laid that thing
- 19:33Speaker 1: out there, it might have been a touchdown. Right. But
- 19:36Speaker 1: that's fine because you're coming off a major injury and
- 19:38Speaker 1: maybe your loan ball isn't there just yet. But his
- 19:42Speaker 1: his accuracy and his touch that needs to be there.
- 19:45Speaker 1: We're talking about anything between fifteen and less yards. He
- 19:48Speaker 1: needs to put his spot on so the receiver can
- 19:50Speaker 1: catch the ball and maybe get up filled. So okay. So,
- 19:53Speaker 1: like I said, Derrick Henry, a little bit of an
- 19:56Speaker 1: overhyped feeling in the locker room, even though you say,
- 20:00Speaker 1: don't care who the running back is right now, you
- 20:01Speaker 1: gotta stop the run. But naj Good did remind me, yes,
- 20:04Speaker 1: forty four yards last time against the Titans. But um,
- 20:09Speaker 1: the good thing about it is that we've beat him
- 20:10Speaker 1: before and we stopped him before, and everywhere I've been
- 20:12Speaker 1: we've done the same thing. So I mean, it's no
- 20:15Speaker 1: fault there, no smack talk to them. It's just how
- 20:17Speaker 1: we execute our defense. Keyword execution there, I can't tell
- 20:21Speaker 1: you how many times I heard the word execute in
- 20:24Speaker 1: the locker room yesterday. Offense and defense. My thought is, Okay,
- 20:29Speaker 1: have we gotten better or worse since the last time
- 20:31Speaker 1: we played them? I mean, has a defense you know,
- 20:35Speaker 1: has Tennis has has the as um their offense the
- 20:41Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans. Have they gotten better? Because if they gott't better,
- 20:44Speaker 1: it's gonna be a tough day. And if our defense
- 20:46Speaker 1: looks like it's getting worse as the season progresses, So
- 20:50Speaker 1: I don't know if we're gonna stop him and or
- 20:52Speaker 1: keep him under a hundred yards because we're just not
- 20:55Speaker 1: playing that well. Ryan Tannehill is the difference. I mean,
- 20:57Speaker 1: they were shut out in Denver and that game, Uh,
- 21:01Speaker 1: the quarterback was bench Mariota and Tannehill comes in and
- 21:05Speaker 1: they lost that game. But they've won three in a
- 21:06Speaker 1: row now, and so he's a better passer, which allows
- 21:12Speaker 1: play action to come into the game. Uh, They've got
- 21:15Speaker 1: a young tight end that they're excited about and a
- 21:17Speaker 1: couple of receivers they're excited about. This defense has a
- 21:20Speaker 1: much greater challenge with Tannehill at quarterback and than they
- 21:24Speaker 1: did with Mariota. That's saying a lot because Mariota found
- 21:27Speaker 1: a way to sneaky, you know, find extra yards and
- 21:30Speaker 1: beat this team with his legs. But they also knew
- 21:32Speaker 1: him so well, they knew what was coming. Ryan Tannehill,
- 21:35Speaker 1: you don't you don't know. And if I'm if I'm
- 21:39Speaker 1: the coach, I'm going to run the ball and make
- 21:41Speaker 1: the Jaguars make me throw the ball. So the game
- 21:46Speaker 1: plan is to come out, run the ball and then
- 21:47Speaker 1: play action and pass. That's the game plan. That's why.
- 21:50Speaker 1: That's when I'm assuming to see when I when I
- 21:53Speaker 1: watched this film, they're gonna come out and they're gonna
- 21:54Speaker 1: try to pound the ball and get as many yards
- 21:56Speaker 1: on the ground as possible. Yeah, I think we all
- 21:58Speaker 1: know probably what the first drive will. One thing the
- 22:02Speaker 1: Jaguars can't hang their hats on a positive from this
- 22:05Speaker 1: season is the pass rush. Just ask G J. Hayden. Firstly, man,
- 22:10Speaker 1: when the d line up there are getting you, Man,
- 22:11Speaker 1: when Josh up there getting sacks and him class and yond,
- 22:14Speaker 1: I mean, they make my job a lot more easier,
- 22:17Speaker 1: you know, because we're back there. We're gonna cover for him.
- 22:19Speaker 1: And I tell She's like, hey, well the need I
- 22:24Speaker 1: give you five? But like we said we can talk
- 22:29Speaker 1: about the critiquing on the sidelines that Brian and I see.
- 22:32Speaker 1: It's the same thing when something great happens with the
- 22:34Speaker 1: pass rush. You have the linebackers, the corners, the safety
- 22:37Speaker 1: is all coming and congratulating. So it goes both ways.
- 22:39Speaker 1: But it's a whole defensive thing. The pass rush has
- 22:42Speaker 1: been amazing. I mean they're getting sacks every game and
- 22:45Speaker 1: it's hard to do. It's hard to get one sack,
- 22:47Speaker 1: and the team is it's still out there. It's out
- 22:49Speaker 1: there around the quarterback. They do that very very well.
- 22:52Speaker 1: And if we get a lead and we can put
- 22:54Speaker 1: a offense and get him one dimensional, make them pass.
- 22:57Speaker 1: I like our chances to win. So keep up the
- 23:00Speaker 1: great work. Make that one happen. Yes, that is a positive,
- 23:04Speaker 1: that's for sure, all right, And that is around the
- 23:05Speaker 1: locker room. We come back, we're doing some ranting. Reggie's rants.
- 23:09Speaker 1: Next on Jack Strike. You can step up to luxury now. Hello,

- 24:48Speaker 1: reached the Rookie Support hotline. This is Peyton Manning. Your
- 24:51Speaker 1: commitment to keeping Sunday laundry free is truly inspiring, and
- 24:56Speaker 1: Todd is committed to your commitment. You're making the world
- 25:00Speaker 1: a better place for our rookies one week at a time.
- 25:03Speaker 1: They grow up so fast. Remember, there are plenty of
- 25:06Speaker 1: other days of the week, and tied is America's number
- 25:10Speaker 1: one detergent for all of them. If it's laundry night,
- 25:13Speaker 1: it's got to be tied. So normally it's Reggie's reactions,
- 25:27Speaker 1: but because of what you saw on tape, we got
- 25:31Speaker 1: to turn into Reggie's rants because I have a feeling
- 25:34Speaker 1: it's about the run defense. It is, it is. It's ugly.
- 25:38Speaker 1: It's ugly, especially when you watch film and it's coming
- 25:41Speaker 1: from you. You know a thing or two about a
- 25:43Speaker 1: run defense. Yeah, I mean, when you played the sport,
- 25:45Speaker 1: you see flaws. But these are these are things you
- 25:49Speaker 1: just can't have on defense, not not to be successful.
- 25:52Speaker 1: All right, So let's start Marlon Mack causing JAG's trouble
- 25:56Speaker 1: all day. This one for sixteen yards. So the reason
- 26:01Speaker 1: why I chose this play is not because the running
- 26:03Speaker 1: back is doing a great job of getting up the field.
- 26:06Speaker 1: If you look closely, it's the old line. The old
- 26:09Speaker 1: line is climbing up on our linebackers with too much ease.
- 26:12Speaker 1: When you're running three or four defense, you want these guys,
- 26:16Speaker 1: You want your d line to kind of suck up
- 26:18Speaker 1: some of these old lineen and we're not. We're getting
- 26:21Speaker 1: blocked by one individual. And then that ladies, the sentence
- 26:25Speaker 1: center or the guard to get up on your linebackers
- 26:27Speaker 1: who should be flowing freely to make tackles, and they're not.
- 26:30Speaker 1: And this is how you get gash for six seen yards.
- 26:33Speaker 1: It's just simple football. And we have to play better
- 26:35Speaker 1: than that. We gotta be more physical on the line
- 26:37Speaker 1: of scrimmage. And then I would like to see on
- 26:39Speaker 1: run players, the linebackers attacking, attacking, so if they do
- 26:43Speaker 1: get a game, it's only one or two yards or
- 26:45Speaker 1: three yards, but they're sitting back there catching and this
- 26:47Speaker 1: guy's just running up the middle of our defense. Because
- 26:49Speaker 1: this is just about Avery Jones or Tavian Brian or
- 26:56Speaker 1: whoever is playing defensive tackle, defensive and about when their
- 27:00Speaker 1: one on one, you gotta beat the guy crossed from you. Yeah,
- 27:02Speaker 1: if you have a one on one against the run,
- 27:04Speaker 1: if you have a one on one block, you have
- 27:06Speaker 1: to be disruptive. All right. You see what the ball is.
- 27:09Speaker 1: You've identified that it's not a pass. Now you have
- 27:11Speaker 1: to go make a play because you're asking your linebacker
- 27:13Speaker 1: to also shed someone that's like a hundred pounds heavier
- 27:16Speaker 1: than him and make a play. When you're down there
- 27:19Speaker 1: fighting against someone that's your same size, that you should
- 27:21Speaker 1: be dominating. So we talked about this play on Monday
- 27:25Speaker 1: Morning show. It stood out to us, so I know
- 27:28Speaker 1: it stood out to you, Marlon Max touchdown thing gets
- 27:31Speaker 1: stood out to anybody watching football, Alright, So we talked
- 27:34Speaker 1: about physicality, and now let's talk about just miss tackles.
- 27:37Speaker 1: All right. If you watch it, they they're playing really
- 27:39Speaker 1: good defense. They got him pinned and there was three
- 27:41Speaker 1: yards two people, two people miss tackles, and then went
- 27:45Speaker 1: from just having them stop for a three yard game
- 27:48Speaker 1: to six points. That's unacceptable. So your coaches are actually
- 27:53Speaker 1: on the sideline. They should be living. They should be
- 27:55Speaker 1: just like fussing and yelling and custo, and you're gonna
- 27:58Speaker 1: hear this. Look he's in here. They penniment side, which
- 28:01Speaker 1: is perfect. He runs into his own player. It should
- 28:03Speaker 1: be a tackle right there. It should be another tackle
- 28:05Speaker 1: right there. Now he's off, he spin moves, he looks
- 28:07Speaker 1: like you know, he's looking like Marshall fault out there.
- 28:10Speaker 1: And all he did was spin twice and that shouldn't
- 28:13Speaker 1: equal six points. So they were shed it perfectly everywhere else.
- 28:18Speaker 1: But those two miss tackles. Yeah, if you these and
- 28:22Speaker 1: what you want to do on defense is you want
- 28:24Speaker 1: to make the run and go to your free guy
- 28:26Speaker 1: who is unmolested by blockers, and he's the free hitter
- 28:29Speaker 1: and he just comes in and he makes a play
- 28:31Speaker 1: and that and they had that, they had that. He
- 28:33Speaker 1: tried to bounce outside, it wasn't there, so he had
- 28:36Speaker 1: to cut back inside. He runs into his own players,
- 28:38Speaker 1: stopping his feet even better. And now we have the
- 28:42Speaker 1: guy that needs to make the tackle he completely missed.
- 28:45Speaker 1: And then you have someone that was there, thankfully, and
- 28:47Speaker 1: he misses also. So it's two miss tackles and that
- 28:50Speaker 1: leads to a touchdown. Not good, not good at all. Right,
- 28:53Speaker 1: So to be honest, Jonathan Williams. I'd heard of him before,
- 28:56Speaker 1: but not that much. Shouldn't really know much about him. Um,
- 28:59Speaker 1: we don't know about him now after because she's now
- 29:03Speaker 1: their starter. Okay, so now we first we talked about,
- 29:09Speaker 1: you know, getting out muscle. Then we talked about mis tackles.
- 29:11Speaker 1: Now we're talking about not being able to read misdirection. Okay.
- 29:15Speaker 1: They have a counter action motion where they send two
- 29:17Speaker 1: guys to the defenses left and then they won the
- 29:20Speaker 1: ball or did they send them to all right, and
- 29:22Speaker 1: then they run to the defenses left and and we
- 29:26Speaker 1: the landbackers are scraping the wrong way. They're not seeing
- 29:29Speaker 1: the ball. And this misdirection is something that I was
- 29:33Speaker 1: talking about earlier, like we need to misdirect if we
- 29:35Speaker 1: don't have a blocking They did that perfect and then
- 29:38Speaker 1: when they get seven eight yards, look at this run.
- 29:40Speaker 1: They got that beautiful lane. First down its sixteen yard running.
- 29:46Speaker 1: And that's what I'm talking about, Like they're beating us
- 29:48Speaker 1: in every phase of running. They're stronger than us on
- 29:51Speaker 1: the line, and then we're missing tackles, and then they're
- 29:54Speaker 1: using misdirection to confuse everybody and run the ball wherever
- 29:57Speaker 1: they want to, and this is how you have to
- 29:59Speaker 1: one hudred yard rushers. I mean, in the last two games,
- 30:04Speaker 1: just too much. He's just giving up too many yards
- 30:06Speaker 1: on the ground. So how do you fix that? Reggie?
- 30:09Speaker 1: If you were a player going out, what would you
- 30:11Speaker 1: expect the coaching staff to do this? It's it's not
- 30:14Speaker 1: you can't bring anyone else in. There's no one else.
- 30:17Speaker 1: It's not on the it's not on the way. It's
- 30:20Speaker 1: that's over that that that ship. Help call for help. No,
- 30:22Speaker 1: it's not gonna happen. You have to, like, as a coach,
- 30:26Speaker 1: you gotta dig beet like, all right, how can we
- 30:30Speaker 1: get you to make these plays? We gotta put you
- 30:33Speaker 1: in a better position. We gotta call more blisses. I
- 30:35Speaker 1: don't know exactly. I don't That's why I don't get
- 30:37Speaker 1: paid big dollars to coach. I don't know exactly what
- 30:39Speaker 1: they need to do. But you have to answer these
- 30:41Speaker 1: questions right, and you have to do it with the
- 30:43Speaker 1: people that you have in that locker room. So they
- 30:46Speaker 1: gave up to sixty four last week? Can they be fifty?
- 30:50Speaker 1: Is it reasonable to expect them to be better this week?
- 30:53Speaker 1: To get up one thirty? Two. Is it reasonable? Yeah,
- 30:58Speaker 1: because like when you hear rock Bottom the only place
- 31:00Speaker 1: you can go, what's up? All right? I say that's
- 31:03Speaker 1: rock Bottom that can climb halfway up that mountain. You
- 31:06Speaker 1: can you can climb halfway up the mountain. Plus, I
- 31:09Speaker 1: mean they're not they're not. They're not fighting against the
- 31:11Speaker 1: old line that they've just seen. The coach that coach off.
- 31:15Speaker 1: It's great. It was coaching tape over and over again.
- 31:18Speaker 1: And I don't think that we're gonna have those issues
- 31:21Speaker 1: this game. They're gonna have more success. And he's the
- 31:24Speaker 1: running back. Henry is not going to have the lanes
- 31:26Speaker 1: that he had that they gave lanes like that. He's
- 31:29Speaker 1: it's trouble that big guy on our landbackers in secondary
- 31:34Speaker 1: just hitting him with his shoulder and bouncing off of him.
- 31:38Speaker 1: It's gonna be a hard attackle. We need to stop
- 31:40Speaker 1: him in the backfield or on the line of scrimmage.
- 31:42Speaker 1: All right, good guys up front, And that is Reggie's
- 31:45Speaker 1: Rances Morald the story. Stop the run, please stay it,
- 31:48Speaker 1: please please come back. Ashland's asked to wrap up the

- 34:08Speaker 1: Fields Auto Group, wrapping up this fine program with three
- 34:12Speaker 1: questions for Ashland asked. We're starting off with a positive today,
- 34:18Speaker 1: who bounces back against the Tech Titans Texas. We're playing
- 34:22Speaker 1: the Titans Shalin They once played in Houston, So you
- 34:25Speaker 1: weren't you know, six degrees separation? Who bounces back? Give
- 34:31Speaker 1: me a positive, who comes off Sunday feeling good saying,
- 34:36Speaker 1: you know what, I played pretty good. I stumped you.
- 34:44Speaker 1: We're not used to pots up, though, you got I'm
- 34:47Speaker 1: gonna go with the entire defense. They have to bounce back, because,
- 34:51Speaker 1: oh my goodness, I can't sit down and watch that
- 34:54Speaker 1: as a fan because it's hard to digest how poorly
- 34:58Speaker 1: we play. And I love football. I love watching it,
- 35:01Speaker 1: and I want to see the Jaguars has success. And
- 35:04Speaker 1: I don't care if it's, you know, a defensive game.
- 35:07Speaker 1: Just don't give up them in that many yards running
- 35:10Speaker 1: and I'd rather see the past rush. I rather see
- 35:12Speaker 1: them out there having fun and and celebrating sex. I'll
- 35:16Speaker 1: go with Leonard for net Um. So you know, going
- 35:20Speaker 1: into last week's game, he was third in the a
- 35:22Speaker 1: f C in rushing yards, and he was third in
- 35:24Speaker 1: the NFL from yards from scrimmage, and last week was
- 35:29Speaker 1: just abominable. Um. The last two games, he's been a
- 35:32Speaker 1: non factor. You talked about having to run to win.
- 35:35Speaker 1: You're totally right. I think this is your best player
- 35:37Speaker 1: on offense, right, I think when I watch him and
- 35:40Speaker 1: I get it that he doesn't look like Ezekiel Elliott, right,
- 35:44Speaker 1: But when I watch him athletically and when he when
- 35:48Speaker 1: he gets free like he did against the Jets for
- 35:50Speaker 1: that long run, um, you can make the case for
- 35:52Speaker 1: DJ Shark, but I think it's still Leonard for that,
- 35:56Speaker 1: and I think you have to have him dictating the
- 35:59Speaker 1: tempo and playing l um. Against the Titans, he was
- 36:02Speaker 1: bottled up, bottled up, and he got free for the
- 36:04Speaker 1: fifty six yard run he pressed. By the way, he
- 36:06Speaker 1: has six runs I'm sorry, five runs of greater than
- 36:09Speaker 1: sixty yards, and since the start of no other running
- 36:13Speaker 1: back in the league has that many. He's got that
- 36:15Speaker 1: explosive capability. And I say they get him on track
- 36:19Speaker 1: this week. I don't know how they do it, but
- 36:21Speaker 1: I just have this sense you're not going to do
- 36:23Speaker 1: it to him again. Is it? Well? I think some
- 36:26Speaker 1: of it is both, because there were some plays that
- 36:28Speaker 1: were there to be made he could have taken advantage of,
- 36:31Speaker 1: and he did, had a couple of really good runs
- 36:33Speaker 1: early on, and then you know, they fell behind, they
- 36:35Speaker 1: got away from it. They didn't feel like he was
- 36:37Speaker 1: running all that well. I don't know what it is.
- 36:39Speaker 1: I don't want to speak for John d. Philip's gonna
- 36:40Speaker 1: speak a little later today, and I'm sure that will
- 36:42Speaker 1: be one of the first questions that he has asked. Um,
- 36:45Speaker 1: I just I'll just go out in the limb and
- 36:47Speaker 1: say that four Nette gets things going this week? I
- 36:49Speaker 1: like it. I like it all right? How many yards
- 36:52Speaker 1: well Derrick Henry have on Sunday? We can go two
- 36:56Speaker 1: directions here? Oh, you're going on the halfway. I knew
- 37:03Speaker 1: it was coming well in your thing this week. Yes,
- 37:07Speaker 1: go go ahead, tell the fans. I look, I don't
- 37:14Speaker 1: think you're gonna shut him down completely like you did here.
- 37:17Speaker 1: Now that could change if for Neck gets going and
- 37:20Speaker 1: the Jags get to a lead, they block a pont
- 37:23Speaker 1: you know, they forced a turnover. Yeah, you can hold
- 37:26Speaker 1: him down, Um, but the only way you're going to
- 37:28Speaker 1: do that is if you score a bunch of points
- 37:30Speaker 1: and force them to abandon the running game. And I
- 37:32Speaker 1: don't think you're gonna be able to do that, or
- 37:34Speaker 1: at least I don't. I'm not willing to stick my
- 37:36Speaker 1: neck out and predict that confident after well, I mean
- 37:39Speaker 1: one touchdown and one field goal essentially in the last
- 37:43Speaker 1: two games. I'm not willing to go that for UM,
- 37:47Speaker 1: So I say that they are fifty better against the run,
- 37:50Speaker 1: and Derrick Henry has a hundred and thirty two, which
- 37:53Speaker 1: might be half of what he had last year against
- 37:55Speaker 1: this team. All right, I'm gonna go in ninety five
- 37:57Speaker 1: yards and I'm going with ninety five not because um
- 38:01Speaker 1: I really believe in I believe that if they don't
- 38:05Speaker 1: keep him. You know, contained some people are gonna lose
- 38:08Speaker 1: their jobs if they lose this game. It's one of
- 38:10Speaker 1: those games where if we lose, we start playing young players,
- 38:13Speaker 1: try to get them ready for next year and try
- 38:16Speaker 1: to get a little better and give them some exposure.
- 38:18Speaker 1: So if they don't come in and started stopping and
- 38:21Speaker 1: doing their job and stopping a run, I'm started pumping
- 38:23Speaker 1: in young players, and people get concerned and worried about
- 38:27Speaker 1: their job in their livelihood because young players are starting
- 38:30Speaker 1: to step in. So somebody better step up and do
- 38:32Speaker 1: their job or they're gonna get replaced under und I
- 38:36Speaker 1: like it, all right. I asked you guys this question
- 38:39Speaker 1: last week, and after watching Sunday's game, what is the
- 38:44Speaker 1: Jaguars record at the end of the season, I told
- 38:47Speaker 1: myself I'd ask regardless of a winner loose. After watching
- 38:52Speaker 1: last week's game, what is the Jags record at the
- 38:56Speaker 1: end of the season in six weeks? I want to say,
- 39:02Speaker 1: you guys said eight and eight and seven and nine
- 39:04Speaker 1: last week. That's what I recall. I'm not changing. I
- 39:08Speaker 1: like it eight and Nate I in a final analysis
- 39:12Speaker 1: this week, UM decided I would be one guy that
- 39:16Speaker 1: was not raining all over this um and say that
- 39:19Speaker 1: somehow they defy every because no one expects them to
- 39:22Speaker 1: go win no one. It looks at the way that
- 39:24Speaker 1: this team has played the first two games of this
- 39:26Speaker 1: critical three game stretch Texans, Colts, Titans and can say,
- 39:31Speaker 1: oh win. I just have a sense that something's gonna
- 39:34Speaker 1: change this week. I'm not sure whether it's for ned
- 39:36Speaker 1: or the run defense. UM. You know, the Titans have
- 39:39Speaker 1: been on a bit of a run with tont Tannehill.
- 39:41Speaker 1: Jags beat the heck out of Tannehill last December, if
- 39:43Speaker 1: you remember, with the Miami team that was still involved
- 39:45Speaker 1: in the race. So I say that the Jags win
- 39:48Speaker 1: this week, you get bucks. Give a Chargers team that's
- 39:51Speaker 1: swooning all of a sudden, there's some more wins for
- 39:53Speaker 1: this team if they can play well. I say they
- 39:55Speaker 1: play well and still finishing night. All right, I'm gonna
- 39:58Speaker 1: go with it. Six and seven. I had them winning
- 40:01Speaker 1: this game and they didn't. And uh, the way they play,
- 40:05Speaker 1: you know who would say that they would go only you? Yeah,
- 40:13Speaker 1: like if we can't stop the run. I mean I
- 40:16Speaker 1: think six and ten is generous. So yeah, like I said,
- 40:20Speaker 1: nobody in their right mind would say that, I just
- 40:23Speaker 1: accept you. Well, But look, part of this is showmanship
- 40:26Speaker 1: this week, because this guy hasn't fallen completely and there's
- 40:29Speaker 1: still there's a third of the season left to play
- 40:31Speaker 1: for good mistakes. And the reason that everybody is like,
- 40:35Speaker 1: oh my god is because the way the run defense
- 40:37Speaker 1: is played the last couple of weeks. So if I
- 40:39Speaker 1: ask you, can the run defense be better? Can they
- 40:43Speaker 1: be better before the season's out? Yes, they can be
- 40:47Speaker 1: the middle of the road team giving up a hundred
- 40:49Speaker 1: and twenty six yards a gain? Yeah, but you still
- 40:51Speaker 1: lose giving up I mean like, no, no, that you
- 40:54Speaker 1: can lose. I get it. Does the offense have a
- 40:57Speaker 1: chance to put points on the board and give you
- 40:59Speaker 1: a chance to win? And if they're better against the
- 41:01Speaker 1: right or they be seventy five, I mean you tell me,
- 41:04Speaker 1: I would think seventy five because you're so high right now,
- 41:07Speaker 1: like if you were telling me, you know, can we
- 41:11Speaker 1: can we be better? And we was only given better
- 41:14Speaker 1: than last week, which was awful, which was awful awful?
- 41:17Speaker 1: Can they be you gotta be seventy better than last
- 41:20Speaker 1: week because last week was so awful. Hold on, it
- 41:24Speaker 1: was so bad. Con I am now officially down in
- 41:29Speaker 1: the dumps, Black Cloud. I'm just like everybody else this week.
- 41:34Speaker 1: Everything stinks, team stinks. In the rest of the day,
- 41:39Speaker 1: I would like for them to prove me wrong. Well,
- 41:41Speaker 1: you know, if you're watching, you know, Jaguars proved me wrong,
- 41:44Speaker 1: make me feel, you know, silly, and that'd be great
- 41:47Speaker 1: because sometimes you need an outside motivated. You made a
- 41:49Speaker 1: little chalk talk. They're they're clearly missing Marcell Darius in
- 41:53Speaker 1: the middle of that defense. And Myles Jack, where are
- 41:56Speaker 1: you right? I mean, they paid you this year and
- 41:59Speaker 1: you've played okay, but you haven't played to your level.
- 42:02Speaker 1: Ronnie Harrison. This was the year you were supposed to
- 42:04Speaker 1: get better. So if you can somehow figure out how
- 42:08Speaker 1: to get better again. To the run, Miles Jack, you
- 42:10Speaker 1: can play better, Ronnie Harrison, you can play better. I
- 42:13Speaker 1: think that this is a team that can win some games.
- 42:15Speaker 1: You know, what, the hell with it? I convince myself
- 42:17Speaker 1: if I listen to myself, I'm better off. You gotta
- 42:20Speaker 1: believe to achieve, if you think about it. Sometimes with
- 42:24Speaker 1: Miles Jack, sometimes you play better when you have a
- 42:26Speaker 1: better person alongside you to take the pressure. Makes a
- 42:30Speaker 1: huge differences. And you're saying the difference between having to
- 42:34Speaker 1: you know, really talented people and a little bit of
- 42:36Speaker 1: all off. So you're saying there's a chance, there's a chance, Yeah,
- 42:39Speaker 1: it's probability. Yeah, we're going to remember this time. You're screwed.
- 42:47Speaker 1: I'm just gonna bring it with trumpets and I get
- 42:52Speaker 1: it a little stars around this picture. Let's take a
- 42:54Speaker 1: picture right now. Yeah, yeah, I can see it now,
- 42:56Speaker 1: all right. And that is our show, Jacks Drive Time.
- 43:00Speaker 1: They're on stage, Jaguars Happy Hour, the Doug Arne Show
- 43:02Speaker 1: coordinators talking today in their press conference. All of that
