- 0:42Speaker 2: Bucky Real Football finally here. What's up man, Man?
- 0:45Speaker 3: What's up?
- 0:46Speaker 4: Man?
- 0:46Speaker 3: Really excited about season opener? Des ahead, Uh, taking on
- 0:50Speaker 3: a good Colts team, But this is one that we've
- 0:53Speaker 3: been waiting, all the anticipation, all the build up about
- 0:57Speaker 3: the offense and defense and all this other. So just
- 1:00Speaker 3: really excited to see what the team looks like when
- 1:01Speaker 3: you kick it off the room.
- 1:03Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's to me an interesting game because there's
- 1:08Speaker 4: so much that's being assumed about this team by fans,
- 1:13Speaker 4: by observers, especially by local people, that I think assumes
- 1:19Speaker 4: a lot, meaning nine to eight last year tight games
- 1:25Speaker 4: at the end of last season, and everybody is assuming
- 1:29Speaker 4: that that trajectory continues, and if it does, then you
- 1:31Speaker 4: go up and you win this game handling. I think
- 1:34Speaker 4: that could be the case, but it will be interesting
- 1:37Speaker 4: to see Sunday if if they.
- 1:39Speaker 5: Prove that that is the case.
- 1:41Speaker 4: And Week one, Bucky, as Bucky knows J penis, it's
- 1:46Speaker 4: a weird week in the NFL. So I it is
- 1:51Speaker 4: a game where it's very it's very tough to predict
- 1:54Speaker 4: what's going to happen in this one.
- 1:55Speaker 3: To me, oh, John, what are we doing doing? Like
- 2:00Speaker 3: you sound like a coach.
- 2:01Speaker 5: Over here, but it's to I was gonna.
- 2:04Speaker 3: Go like like like right out the gates.
- 2:06Speaker 5: But you've been around long enough, you know Week ones weird.
- 2:09Speaker 3: We've been. We've been excited all off season. We talked
- 2:12Speaker 3: about throwing it all over the yard, we talked about
- 2:13Speaker 3: putting up thirty points a game. Yeah, I gotta go
- 2:16Speaker 3: game we and you like, whoa with me? You give
- 2:18Speaker 3: me the lou holest.
- 2:19Speaker 5: Thing you know you gotta do?
- 2:22Speaker 3: If we're gonna be able to score point today.
- 2:24Speaker 5: I don't come on, man, were ready, you gotta go
- 2:26Speaker 5: do it?
- 2:27Speaker 3: Ready to go from good to great?
- 2:28Speaker 4: Stop talking, you gotta go do it. You gotta put
- 2:32Speaker 4: Bucki's money where the mouth is.
- 2:33Speaker 2: That's what Ridley said the other week to us, right,
- 2:35Speaker 2: I mean, we got the players, but we just gotta
- 2:38Speaker 2: go play good.
- 2:39Speaker 4: Yeah, and that I mean until they do. And I'm
- 2:43Speaker 4: as go through as anybody. Oh, it's gonna be one
- 2:45Speaker 4: of the best offenses in franchise history, et cetera, et cetera.
- 2:48Speaker 4: You know, they have to go do what we think
- 2:52Speaker 4: we have seen all off season on the practice field
- 2:55Speaker 4: and in the improvements and in the projection, but they
- 2:58Speaker 4: haven't done it yet.
- 2:59Speaker 5: That's see it.
- 3:02Speaker 2: Let's hear from the quarterback, Trevor Lawrence. Yeah, there's some
- 3:05Speaker 2: confidence around the Miller Electric Center this week. I'd say.
- 3:09Speaker 6: You have confidence from a little bit from past success,
- 3:12Speaker 6: but I also think preparation and knowing our system and
- 3:14Speaker 6: feeling more comfortable in what we're doing. Just speaking from
- 3:17Speaker 6: an offensive standpoint, and I'm sure defensively the same way.
- 3:19Speaker 6: I mean, guys look great, but I'm obviously not in
- 3:21Speaker 6: those meeting rooms but I would say they feel the same.
- 3:23Speaker 6: Just being in the system, you just know more. You
- 3:25Speaker 6: can react faster, you can play faster, you communicate better
- 3:28Speaker 6: with the guys around you. So I think that gives
- 3:30Speaker 6: you confidence too. Obviously the way we finished the year,
- 3:33Speaker 6: that gives us confidence. But it's a new season and
- 3:36Speaker 6: that doesn't carry over. You know, everyone starts at the
- 3:38Speaker 6: same in the same spot at the end of the year,
- 3:40Speaker 6: so you can't you can't think that it's gonna be
- 3:43Speaker 6: like that. You know, you got to go out and
- 3:44Speaker 6: earn it. And I think we also have confidence from
- 3:46Speaker 6: the training camp that we've had. OTA's how we've worked
- 3:49Speaker 6: all that plays into it. But now we get to
- 3:52Speaker 6: go play for real and you know, see what we got,
- 3:54Speaker 6: see what type of team we are, and prove it
- 3:56Speaker 6: on the field.
- 3:57Speaker 2: The full press conference from Trevor available on Jaguars John.
- 4:00Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 4:01Speaker 4: And every year, the first two or three weeks of
- 4:04Speaker 4: the season, there is a team or two where when
- 4:09Speaker 4: you're watching you know, the highlights on NFL Network at night,
- 4:13Speaker 4: or where all of a sudden, people are going, WHOA,
- 4:16Speaker 4: Now that's the team to watch.
- 4:19Speaker 2: Boy.
- 4:20Speaker 4: They were sitting on something in training camp and we
- 4:23Speaker 4: all just sort of missed it. I believe, Bucky, with
- 4:27Speaker 4: this offense, that the Jaguars have a chance to be
- 4:29Speaker 4: that team. They have a chance to come out and
- 4:31Speaker 4: just explode and have the league talking about what they're doing.
- 4:35Speaker 4: I think what's interesting is I think the players feel
- 4:39Speaker 4: like they're that team. I think that's what we saw
- 4:41Speaker 4: in Miami the first two drives where I keep making
- 4:45Speaker 4: the comparison when you're watching the Kentucky Derby and there's
- 4:47Speaker 4: this one horse that's just kicking at the door waiting
- 4:49Speaker 4: to get out. To me, that's what this offense feels like.
- 4:54Speaker 4: And I think it's what makes this week really interesting
- 4:55Speaker 4: because I think that's what we're gonna see. But Bucky, again,
- 5:00Speaker 4: we've got to go see it. Do you think that's
- 5:02Speaker 4: what we're looking at, Bucky? That's what I want to do.
- 5:04Speaker 5: You think this is the horse kicking at the gate
- 5:07Speaker 5: at the derby?
- 5:08Speaker 6: Oh.
- 5:08Speaker 3: I think they're ready to get after. And I think
- 5:10Speaker 3: they're gonna be ready to get after because number zero
- 5:12Speaker 3: Calvin Ridley is ready to explode. I think him talking
- 5:16Speaker 3: about being him the attention that's beginning to go his
- 5:21Speaker 3: way as people have been able to check out this
- 5:23Speaker 3: offense in the preseason. Yeah, I feel like this team
- 5:26Speaker 3: is ready to explode, Trevor, ready to make the big leap.
- 5:29Speaker 3: But I gave you a hard time in the opening segment.
- 5:33Speaker 3: But I do that because like I love you, and
- 5:35Speaker 3: I do that because like you get nervous when we
- 5:38Speaker 3: get to these moments, but you are right like as
- 5:40Speaker 3: a as a, as fans, as people around the team,
- 5:44Speaker 3: we can't panic if it doesn't come out with We're
- 5:46Speaker 3: steamrolling people right out the gate. Like this is gonna
- 5:49Speaker 3: be a tough game because it's a division game and
- 5:51Speaker 3: there is a level of familiarity with Gus Bradley noring
- 5:54Speaker 3: this team because he's faced them multiple times. We don't
- 5:57Speaker 3: know what Shane Stykeen is really going to do with
- 5:59Speaker 3: the young quarterback, and so I think it's a situation
- 6:03Speaker 3: where this is where Doug Peterson's experience and expertise comes in,
- 6:07Speaker 3: where if it does start a little slow, we can't panic.
- 6:11Speaker 3: We just got to kind of settle in and allow
- 6:13Speaker 3: the offense to kind of find this way and hopefully
- 6:16Speaker 3: the defense can keep everything in check until the offense
- 6:18Speaker 3: gets scoring. And so I understand what you're saying, and
- 6:21Speaker 3: I get some of the anks and the hesitancy to
- 6:25Speaker 3: go all in. But John, this team is good. Now.
- 6:28Speaker 4: Yeah, I think Bucky makes a good point with that.
- 6:30Speaker 4: With the I usually say it's very often. I think
- 6:33Speaker 4: Bucky makes a good point with him having the head
- 6:38Speaker 4: coaching experience, having been and what now this is probably
- 6:41Speaker 4: his seventh or eighth opener. I'm doing the math right
- 6:45Speaker 4: five Philly seven, and it can go weird early and openers.
- 6:52Speaker 4: I fully anticipate at some point in the first three
- 6:54Speaker 4: quarters Anthony Richardson is going to make a play where
- 6:58Speaker 4: he's standing in the end zone. He makes a thirty
- 7:00Speaker 4: five yard run where the Jaguars defense comes off the
- 7:03Speaker 4: field goes, you know, we didn't play that bad. Just
- 7:06Speaker 4: one guy missed a tackle. He's that guy, and there
- 7:10Speaker 4: could be some weirdness with preparations are always in week one.
- 7:15Speaker 4: Him as a experienced seventh year in the opener guy,
- 7:20Speaker 4: I think can easily convey to the team, Hey, that happens,
- 7:25Speaker 4: no big deal.
- 7:25Speaker 5: And then you get.
- 7:27Speaker 4: A couple of touchdowns in the second quarter to right thing,
- 7:30Speaker 4: I still believe. I think this is going to be
- 7:32Speaker 4: a game. With seven minutes to go, that's a four
- 7:36Speaker 4: to six point game, and that that's when the Jaguars
- 7:39Speaker 4: defense is going to force the rookie quarterback into a
- 7:42Speaker 4: position he doesn't want to be in. I think that's
- 7:45Speaker 4: where they're going to get the tipping point play, and
- 7:47Speaker 4: I think they will win. I think they'll win by
- 7:49Speaker 4: maybe eight or nine points. But it's going to be
- 7:52Speaker 4: that sort of game into it where I think the
- 7:54Speaker 4: Colts protect Anthony richards in the whole game. Then you
- 7:57Speaker 4: get in a situation where late where he has to
- 7:59Speaker 4: make a play, it's in a situation he doesn't like,
- 8:02Speaker 4: and that's when they'll pull away.
- 8:03Speaker 2: All right, let's come back, Bucky. We're gonna dig into
- 8:05Speaker 2: Anthony Richardson a little bit more and his skills set
- 8:08Speaker 2: and how to try to defend that. If you're the
- 8:12Speaker 2: Jaguars this week, and based on what he did in Florida,
- 8:15Speaker 2: maybe a little bit in the preseason as well. If
- 8:17Speaker 2: you're a Jags fan who's always on the move, we've
- 8:19Speaker 2: got the perfect plan for you. With the Bundle at
- 8:22Speaker 2: the Bank, you can purchase tickets to three or more

- 8:33Speaker 2: six three three two thousand. It's huddled up with Bucky
- 8:36Speaker 2: Brooks on the Jaguars Digital Network.
- 8:41Speaker 7: You can think of him, you think of Cam Newton.
- 8:43Speaker 7: These are big, physical, strong quarterbacks that can they can
- 8:46Speaker 7: also throw the football and they're athletic, and you know,
- 8:50Speaker 7: it is a challenge. You know, it's a it's a
- 8:54Speaker 7: quarterback who who can When you watch watch the tape,
- 8:58Speaker 7: you know he can break he can break harm tackles
- 9:00Speaker 7: and then he can he can run for fifteen twenty
- 9:02Speaker 7: thirty yards and beat you with his legs. So you know,
- 9:07Speaker 7: we got to stay disciplined. Obviously defensively, we got to
- 9:10Speaker 7: be a good tackling football team, you know, against against
- 9:13Speaker 7: guys like this.
- 9:15Speaker 2: Doug Peterson, of course, Jaguars head coach. Earlier today the
- 9:19Speaker 2: full press conference on Jaguars dot Com. The Jaguars face
- 9:22Speaker 2: the Indianapolis Colts at Lucas Oil Stadium, Week one, Sunday,
- 9:26Speaker 2: one o'clock, JP, Shadrick, John Ozer, Bucky Brooks. It's huddle up.
- 9:31Speaker 2: That means it's Wednesday afternoon. Glad you're with us on
- 9:33Speaker 2: Jaguars dot Com and Jaguars YouTube and Anthony Richardson is
- 9:37Speaker 2: the quarterback for the Indianapolis Colts. The number four overall
- 9:40Speaker 2: pick out of the University of Florida. Didn't get a
- 9:44Speaker 2: lot of starting time in the grand scheme of things
- 9:46Speaker 2: in his career down there, and Bucky a mixed bag
- 9:50Speaker 2: in terms of passing numbers. What fifty five percent passer,
- 9:56Speaker 2: But he had moments there where Okay, he can make
- 9:59Speaker 2: it throw two. He had moments John, as you said
- 10:03Speaker 2: the other day, you're like, oh, okay, that's an interesting throw,
- 10:07Speaker 2: and then he'd have an eighty yard touchdown ron And
- 10:11Speaker 2: so he's got the skill set to do all of
- 10:13Speaker 2: those things. But it's his first NFL start, Bucky, how
- 10:17Speaker 2: do you flash in front of a rookie, Startle him,
- 10:22Speaker 2: shake him, don't let him get loose. All of the above,
- 10:25Speaker 2: there's a long list with them.
- 10:28Speaker 3: You have to be in a tag mode. The number
- 10:30Speaker 3: one thing that you want to do is you want
- 10:31Speaker 3: to speed up the game. For Anthony Richardson, he has
- 10:34Speaker 3: had problems with that going back to his days at Florida.
- 10:37Speaker 3: He doesn't have a lot of experience as a passer
- 10:39Speaker 3: because he hasn't played a lot He didn't play a
- 10:41Speaker 3: lot in college. I don't play a few years in
- 10:43Speaker 3: high school. Didn't have a lot of success team success
- 10:46Speaker 3: in high school, and so I wonder Kenny put this
- 10:49Speaker 3: team on his back and win games. He may hit
- 10:52Speaker 3: us with some flash moments. And so what you do
- 10:54Speaker 3: if you're Doug Peterson, you stand in front of the
- 10:56Speaker 3: team and say, this guy's gonna make some plays because
- 10:58Speaker 3: he's that good of an athlete. But we don't believe
- 11:01Speaker 3: that he can sustain drives, that he has the patience,
- 11:04Speaker 3: the discipline, and really the overall ability to cut to
- 11:09Speaker 3: really surge if me pickles apart as it passers. So
- 11:12Speaker 3: you mix in some pressures, you mix in some coverage,
- 11:14Speaker 3: and you really wait for him to make a mistake.
- 11:17Speaker 3: It's something that's plagued them throughout his time as a collegian,
- 11:20Speaker 3: and we saw give him issues in the preseason. I
- 11:24Speaker 3: think this is one where defensively, yeah, you don't have
- 11:26Speaker 3: to force the issue too much, but you want to
- 11:29Speaker 3: just make sure, hey, let's make him earn it. Don't
- 11:31Speaker 3: give him any easy ones, and see if he's good
- 11:33Speaker 3: enough to be disciplined and detailed enough to get it done.
- 11:36Speaker 4: Yeah, you figure the over seventeen games. If he plays,
- 11:40Speaker 4: he'll have three or four five games where he makes
- 11:45Speaker 4: the spectacular play, reduces mistakes enough that this team gets
- 11:49Speaker 4: a win. For the most part, you expect his script
- 11:53Speaker 4: to be a couple of sports center plays on offense
- 11:57Speaker 4: that are just spectacular and then a couple sports center
- 12:00Speaker 4: plays where the other team is taking advantage of that.
- 12:03Speaker 4: And the Colts don't look like an incredibly talented team,
- 12:06Speaker 4: So for the most part, that's going to result in losses.
- 12:10Speaker 4: You hope for the jaguars sake. Your percentages are that
- 12:12Speaker 4: this is one of those games where he makes mistakes,
- 12:14Speaker 4: and it would be surprising if he doesn't make a
- 12:18Speaker 4: big play. It would be equally surprising if he gets
- 12:21Speaker 4: out of this game clean without making a very critical
- 12:25Speaker 4: mistake in the second half. Not because of anything against
- 12:27Speaker 4: Anthony Richardson, but that's been his mo in college and
- 12:32Speaker 4: it's what even great and it's what even great college
- 12:36Speaker 4: quarterbacks typically do in their first game.
- 12:38Speaker 5: The odds are with you to have that sort of
- 12:40Speaker 5: game out of.
- 12:41Speaker 2: Him, Yep. Absolutely, And with this defense too, I mean,
- 12:45Speaker 2: they're focuses on getting home to the quarterback and then
- 12:50Speaker 2: when they make things fast the back end with the takeaways,
- 12:53Speaker 2: and that's what team does.
- 12:54Speaker 4: It was fourth in the league and creating turnovers last year.
- 12:58Speaker 4: They were a defense that pressured the passer better than
- 13:03Speaker 4: it sacked the passer, which created that kind of disruption
- 13:06Speaker 4: and it got them a few more of those turnovers.
- 13:08Speaker 4: So the formula is there. I think it's And what
- 13:12Speaker 4: Bucky said earlier is really to the point. I think
- 13:16Speaker 4: there will be some moments in this game that are
- 13:18Speaker 4: a little scary because of him and because it's a
- 13:21Speaker 4: week one, but I don't think it's anything that I
- 13:24Speaker 4: could be able to handle.
- 13:26Speaker 2: Hey, Bucky, how different is it without Jonathan Taylor And
- 13:31Speaker 2: how much of a difference will that pay for the Colts.
- 13:35Speaker 3: It's a big difference because with Jonathan Taylor you have
- 13:37Speaker 3: to defend this team differently. Jonathan Taylor and Anthony richards
- 13:40Speaker 3: In would be a problem because now you have to
- 13:43Speaker 3: defend the zone read and the myriad of RPOs and
- 13:46Speaker 3: read option plays that can come off of those basic plays. Now,
- 13:51Speaker 3: without that, you don't really have to worry about a
- 13:54Speaker 3: high end runner. Yes, you want to take you to run,
- 13:56Speaker 3: you want to make sure you give yourself a chance,
- 13:58Speaker 3: but stopping the pass on early down so and then
- 14:01Speaker 3: you can load up and come after the passing. But
- 14:03Speaker 3: without John Taylor, this is a different team and not
- 14:06Speaker 3: nearly as dangerous or explosive or even as physical as
- 14:10Speaker 3: they were. So him being on the show for at
- 14:13Speaker 3: least the first couple of weeks. Yeah, I mean it
- 14:15Speaker 3: creates opportunities for the division rivals to kind of separate themselves.
- 14:18Speaker 4: From Yeah, it's against any team in the NFL. If
- 14:23Speaker 4: you don't stop the run, they can beat you. Against
- 14:26Speaker 4: the Colts, he can beat you in one play and
- 14:29Speaker 4: then if you and then he can continue to beat
- 14:31Speaker 4: you badly and hard for the entire game.
- 14:35Speaker 3: You know.
- 14:36Speaker 4: So uh they thought, I think when they were game
- 14:40Speaker 4: planning for this season. I mean, the Colts really believe
- 14:42Speaker 4: they're going to have both of these guys. So, uh,
- 14:45Speaker 4: this even more so, even more so the most franchises, Uh,
- 14:49Speaker 4: losing that non non quarterback position, this is probably one
- 14:56Speaker 4: of the two or three teams in the NFL We're
- 15:00Speaker 4: losing a non quarterback completely changes what they do.
- 15:05Speaker 5: So it's huge. I think it's why the Jaguars should
- 15:09Speaker 5: be favored and why it would be very surprising if
- 15:12Speaker 5: they don't win and be a bad loss.
- 15:15Speaker 4: Frankly, I'm not saying it couldn't happen, but it would
- 15:18Speaker 4: be a bad loss.
- 15:19Speaker 3: It wouldn't be a bad loss because, like quietly, no
- 15:22Speaker 3: one should do this. But I mean, we're already counting them.
- 15:24Speaker 3: Like when you look at the division, you can make
- 15:26Speaker 3: the case that the Jaguars should be within five and
- 15:31Speaker 3: one within the division. I mean, let's just be honest.
- 15:33Speaker 3: You got two ricky quarterbacks in Indianapolis and Houston, respectively.
- 15:36Speaker 3: You would like to think that you get a sweep there.
- 15:38Speaker 3: Even if you get a split from Tennessee, that's five
- 15:40Speaker 3: and one that puts you almost halfway home when it
- 15:43Speaker 3: comes to the postseason. But this is one that even
- 15:46Speaker 3: though it's on the road, you got to beat the coast.
- 15:49Speaker 3: You need to beat them. You don't want to give
- 15:51Speaker 3: a game away. This is one that you should win.
- 15:53Speaker 3: I don't care about the patterncy of the pageantry of
- 15:55Speaker 3: opening day or the opening of the season, doesn't matter.
- 15:59Speaker 3: This is one that you Aguars should win, expecting when
- 16:01Speaker 3: I expect, play well and get it done.
- 16:03Speaker 4: What about Bucky sitting out there in his California mansion
- 16:05Speaker 4: just sweeping teams, counting Duves.
- 16:07Speaker 2: Uh huh. He's already looking ahead to January.
- 16:11Speaker 5: Sweeping teams and counting doves.
- 16:13Speaker 3: I mean, like, sometimes I gotta figure out. You got
- 16:17Speaker 3: to figure out how We've gotta make plans. Gotta make
- 16:19Speaker 3: plans if we're gonna be the number one. See, you
- 16:20Speaker 3: gotta make plans to see what I'm gonna doing on
- 16:22Speaker 3: that bye week in the postseason. This is a great opportunity.
- 16:25Speaker 3: We won't look ahead. But that Travis Kelce's out, Chris
- 16:28Speaker 3: Jones is it's hurting. You got a chance to like
- 16:31Speaker 3: watch them fall back. So if we take care of business. Look, man,
- 16:35Speaker 3: this is a big, big opportunity for us.
- 16:37Speaker 4: I love when he says we're not going to look
- 16:39Speaker 4: ahead and then the Chiefs.
- 16:41Speaker 3: Yeah, no, no, no, I wasn't talking about that game in particularly,
- 16:44Speaker 3: But what I was talking about the Chiefs playing on
- 16:46Speaker 3: Thursday night, Travis kel Jones, they could be zero to
- 16:51Speaker 3: one because I'm thinking about competing for the number one seed.
- 16:54Speaker 3: I'm not talking about head to head. We'll take care
- 16:56Speaker 3: of them next week when we have the chance. But
- 16:58Speaker 3: I'm just talking about in theory, when talking about who's
- 17:00Speaker 3: competing for the number one seat, That's what.

- 17:17Speaker 2: week one, we're back at them all and it's huddle
- 17:20Speaker 2: up with Bucky Brooks.
- 17:27Speaker 6: I don't really care, to be honest, you know, I
- 17:29Speaker 6: think it's I think it's more dangerous to have people
- 17:31Speaker 6: praising you than than to not have any expectations. But
- 17:35Speaker 6: with the group we have, it doesn't worry me at all.
- 17:37Speaker 6: I mean, I think we know how to work, come
- 17:40Speaker 6: to work every day with the same mindset. But that's
- 17:43Speaker 6: the biggest thing is that's why I don't really Everyone
- 17:45Speaker 6: always asks about expectations and how you deal with them,
- 17:48Speaker 6: Like you don't really deal with them, You just don't
- 17:49Speaker 6: listen to them. Like what doesn't matter what you know
- 17:51Speaker 6: this guy said over here, he's not in our locker room.
- 17:53Speaker 6: He's not a part of our team. And even if
- 17:55Speaker 6: you said something good, we go out and lose Sunday,
- 17:58Speaker 6: everyone's going to be like, oh, I told you they
- 17:59Speaker 6: were't gonna be in. I guess it doesn't really matter.
- 18:01Speaker 6: You know what people say or you know, so we
- 18:04Speaker 6: just have to keep our ship tight. And I think
- 18:06Speaker 6: that's the biggest thing that coach has done a good
- 18:08Speaker 6: job of is making sure we do that and and
- 18:11Speaker 6: managing all those expectations because that's just it's they're not real.
- 18:14Speaker 6: It's not a real thing.
- 18:15Speaker 3: You know.
- 18:15Speaker 6: We have to go play every Sunday and put our
- 18:18Speaker 6: best foot forward, and you can't do that if you're
- 18:19Speaker 6: listening to what other people are saying.
- 18:22Speaker 2: That's the quarterback of course. Trevor Lawrence looking swoll today
- 18:26Speaker 2: in his press conference. Swoll s w O l E. No,
- 18:32Speaker 2: you are not. You are not even close to swollen?
- 18:37Speaker 3: Does I don't know. I depends on how hard you
- 18:41Speaker 3: want to work when you go down to here.
- 18:43Speaker 2: And all signs point to know.
- 18:48Speaker 5: I'm not willing to work to be swollen.
- 18:52Speaker 2: But Trevor's been working at it.
- 18:53Speaker 5: That's what it takes.
- 18:54Speaker 2: The keut me out if that's what it takes for
- 18:57Speaker 2: him to take the next step and help him physically.
- 18:59Speaker 3: Bucky.
- 19:00Speaker 2: Hey, it looks like he's put on a little bit.
- 19:02Speaker 3: Yeah, put on a little bit. What I like about him, man,
- 19:04Speaker 3: he's so mature. I mean, he goes into John Osier
- 19:07Speaker 3: school of how to like temper expectations and really kind
- 19:11Speaker 3: of quell the excitement that's building around the squad. Hey,
- 19:14Speaker 3: we're gonna take it a game at a time, a
- 19:16Speaker 3: player at a time, all that coach speak that we
- 19:18Speaker 3: love to hear from our players. But I think his
- 19:21Speaker 3: perspective is that because sometimes as a player, those outside
- 19:26Speaker 3: expectations can put an added amount of pressure on you
- 19:30Speaker 3: because you are trying to be the team that looks
- 19:32Speaker 3: like a super Bowl team from day one, from game one.
- 19:36Speaker 3: And so, as we talked about in the previous segment
- 19:38Speaker 3: about opening games being kind of tricky, it's a tricky
- 19:41Speaker 3: situation to be in because everyone expects the Jaguars to
- 19:44Speaker 3: hit the ground running. This offense to light it up.
- 19:47Speaker 3: Part has been fueled by our conversations talking about like
- 19:49Speaker 3: they could get to thirty points a game, but it
- 19:51Speaker 3: may not start like that, and so it's a very
- 19:54Speaker 3: level headed approach. I am curious to see if he
- 19:57Speaker 3: and his teammates are able to really take that approach
- 19:59Speaker 3: when they step in to the stadium against the Colts
- 20:01Speaker 3: on Sunday.
- 20:02Speaker 2: All right, Bucky, we'll do a question of the Day today.
- 20:06Speaker 2: I'm ready what's your greatest concern about the Colts defense
- 20:10Speaker 2: against this Jaguars offense? Be Guz Bradley leading the way
- 20:13Speaker 2: over there, Shaq Leonard, I think is in the protocol,
- 20:17Speaker 2: or was at least yesterday, Bucky, So he may or
- 20:20Speaker 2: may not go. What's your greatest concern about the Colts defensively?
- 20:24Speaker 3: Greatest concern is that Gus Bradley's going to do a
- 20:26Speaker 3: really good job of bending but not breaking. He's gonna
- 20:30Speaker 3: allow the Jaguars to have all the yards that they want,
- 20:32Speaker 3: but inside the twenties he's going to kind of stiffen
- 20:35Speaker 3: up and tighten up and really make it very difficult
- 20:38Speaker 3: for Trevor Lawrence to fit the ball in the tight windows.
- 20:40Speaker 3: And so my concern would be that his his philosophy
- 20:46Speaker 3: will really test the patience and the discipline of Trevor Lawrence,
- 20:49Speaker 3: and Trevor Lawrence won't show the growth to be like, no,
- 20:51Speaker 3: I'll just keep taking the check down until they change
- 20:55Speaker 3: what they're doing. That's the biggest thing is that bend
- 20:58Speaker 3: but don't break, that umbrella style of defense that the
- 21:01Speaker 3: Coats want to employ will end up frustrating the Jaguars,
- 21:05Speaker 3: and it frustrates the quarterback into a handful of costly mistakes.
- 21:10Speaker 4: Yeah, and they've got a big time player to forrest.
- 21:11Speaker 4: Buckner is a good player who I think anchors a
- 21:18Speaker 4: good front and basically what Bucky said, but this.
- 21:23Speaker 5: Is not.
- 21:26Speaker 4: This is a team of unknowns on offense. You know
- 21:29Speaker 4: what they are on defense, and therefore they know what
- 21:32Speaker 4: they are, so they're not going to have a whole
- 21:34Speaker 4: lot of You wouldn't expect a lot of first games
- 21:38Speaker 4: getting used to the coordinator, getting used to each other issues.
- 21:41Speaker 4: This is largely the same defense that has been there,
- 21:44Speaker 4: so you don't expect them to have week one mess
- 21:47Speaker 4: which will give you some points. So I think gust
- 21:51Speaker 4: being there and havn't been around these players is a
- 21:55Speaker 4: concern because I think the Jaguars will have to earn
- 21:58Speaker 4: what they get on Sunday. Now I still think they will,
- 22:01Speaker 4: but that takes away some opportunities that you otherwise otherwise
- 22:07Speaker 4: might get against a young defense.
- 22:09Speaker 2: Buckie, what do you like about the Colts secondary and
- 22:12Speaker 2: some young guys outside right on the corner?
- 22:14Speaker 3: Spose, Yeah, young guys outside and they're world coach. And
- 22:18Speaker 3: I'll say the thing about the Coats, The best part
- 22:20Speaker 3: of their team will be their defense, and I know
- 22:23Speaker 3: Shaq Lenard won't be there, but this is a defense
- 22:26Speaker 3: that is played pretty well in terms of they understand
- 22:29Speaker 3: exactly what Gus Bradley wants to do. They do a
- 22:31Speaker 3: really good job of executing that. Because of that, they're
- 22:33Speaker 3: always going to be in the game unless their offense
- 22:37Speaker 3: gives it away. And so to double down on that
- 22:42Speaker 3: concern is the frustration from the team. The team needs
- 22:45Speaker 3: to be patient. They have to have enough poise that
- 22:48Speaker 3: if early in the game they're forced to kick field goals,
- 22:51Speaker 3: that they don't get all out of sorts thinking that
- 22:54Speaker 3: they need to blow the Colts out in the first half.
- 22:57Speaker 3: This is going to be a methodical beat down if
- 23:00Speaker 3: even if Doug Peterson has it the way that he
- 23:02Speaker 3: wants to, it'd be more of a methodical, slow, steady
- 23:07Speaker 3: building up points that eventually leads to a big win,
- 23:11Speaker 3: not the a I'm gonna knock him out in the
- 23:13Speaker 3: first quarter with big plays to Calvin Ridley and those things.
- 23:15Speaker 3: The Colts are really gonna make a concerted effort to
- 23:17Speaker 3: take away the big play and really force the Jaguars
- 23:20Speaker 3: to drive the lift of the field.
- 23:21Speaker 2: All right, let's come back in just a moment. The
- 23:23Speaker 2: official injury report has come down from both sides, including
- 23:29Speaker 2: Shaquille Leonard and an update on the Colts linebacker coming
- 23:33Speaker 2: up at a moment. Jaguars football is back. Be there
- 23:35Speaker 2: for the highly anticipated home over September seventeenth, the rematch
- 23:40Speaker 2: that Jaguars entertained the Kansas City Chiefs. Tickets are almost gone,
- 23:44Speaker 2: standing room only. I'm told Jaguars dot Com slash tickets
- 23:49Speaker 2: or call nine oh four six three three two thousand.
- 23:52Speaker 2: It's Huddle Up with Bucky Brooks come back. Final moments
- 24:00Speaker 2: of Huddle Up with Bucky Brooks. First Wednesday of the
- 24:04Speaker 2: regular season. Jaguars and the Colts coming up Lucas Oil
- 24:08Speaker 2: Stadium Sunday one o'clock. We're on the air with a
- 24:12Speaker 2: public Stailgates Show ten o'clock on ten ten XL and
- 24:16Speaker 2: Jacksonville twelve noon for Countown to kick off on the
- 24:18Speaker 2: Jaguars Radio Network full all three contribute. We'll have a
- 24:22Speaker 2: live huddle up from you guys will beat Lucas Oil.
- 24:25Speaker 2: I'll be in the studio. It'll be good. We'll talk Paul.
- 24:28Speaker 2: That's what we're gonna do. Hey, injury report has come
- 24:35Speaker 2: out and each team has two players listed officially after
- 24:42Speaker 2: Wednesday's practice. We start with the Jaguars. Safety Antonio Johnson,
- 24:46Speaker 2: with a hamstring injury did not practice today. Doug Peterson
- 24:50Speaker 2: said that it could be a week or two maybe
- 24:51Speaker 2: just to see with him. We'll see how that goes.
- 24:53Speaker 2: Tyler Lacey, defensive lineman with a hip issue, was limited today.
- 24:58Speaker 2: Those are the only two listed for the that's good news.
- 25:01Speaker 5: Good news.
- 25:01Speaker 4: There is Photocosi practiced, yes, and that's important.
- 25:06Speaker 2: Indianapolis Colts two players. Running back Zach Moss limited today
- 25:10Speaker 2: with a forearm injury. He's like the first he's listed
- 25:13Speaker 2: as the first string running back right, Yeah, he's limited.
- 25:17Speaker 2: That's interesting. Shaquille Leonard and the concussion protocol full practice today,
- 25:21Speaker 2: So to be clear is that he should be good
- 25:24Speaker 2: to go tomorrow and we'll see. He hasn't played in
- 25:28Speaker 2: a while, he was banged up last year, didn't play.
- 25:29Speaker 2: Get this against this team. And if he's out there,
- 25:32Speaker 2: he's a difference maker.
- 25:33Speaker 4: Yeah, if he's out there, then they have two players
- 25:37Speaker 4: who are all pro level talents and it can make
- 25:42Speaker 4: a difference. And a Leonard, remember it's easy to forget
- 25:46Speaker 4: because he only played three games last year. He's one
- 25:48Speaker 4: of those rare guys who can create opportunities, points, takeaways,
- 25:55Speaker 4: So he scares you a little bit more than maybe
- 25:57Speaker 4: your normal defensive player would, so you'd rather have him
- 26:01Speaker 4: not out there for the Jacks.
- 26:02Speaker 2: Hey, Bucky. The high point total ever for the Jaguars
- 26:06Speaker 2: in Indianapolis in a road game is guess thirty six, wrong,
- 26:12Speaker 2: guess again?
- 26:13Speaker 3: Lower, oh, lower, twenty.
- 26:17Speaker 2: Eight, twenty seven. Three different times the Jaguars have scored
- 26:22Speaker 2: twenty seven points in a road game in Indianapolis. That's
- 26:25Speaker 2: the high water mark, and they're two and one in
- 26:27Speaker 2: those games. They lost last year when they scored twenty
- 26:30Speaker 2: seven gave up a late touchdown. Are they going above that? Now?
- 26:34Speaker 2: Are they going above that? On Sunday?
- 26:35Speaker 3: Bucky, I'm gonna go right to thirty. But it's gonna
- 26:39Speaker 3: be a slog. It's gonna be one of those that's
- 26:41Speaker 3: tough in the beginning to try and figure out how
- 26:44Speaker 3: to handle Gus Bradley and then to eventually crack the code.
- 26:47Speaker 3: But the one thing that we've seen is Doug Peterson
- 26:49Speaker 3: eventually cracks everybody's coat. And so can they play well
- 26:53Speaker 3: enough on defense to keep the score down until Doug
- 26:56Speaker 3: Peterson can find a handful of concepts that really gives
- 26:59Speaker 3: the Coast defense because Wes he finds him his man
- 27:02Speaker 3: watch Ren's repeat, He's gonna do it over and over
- 27:04Speaker 3: and over again. It's just a matter of can he
- 27:06Speaker 3: finally unlock what they're doing on defense and the didn't
- 27:09Speaker 3: really attack.
- 27:10Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it's something like thirty one to twenty
- 27:12Speaker 4: with the Jaguars leading twenty four to twenty three to
- 27:14Speaker 4: twenty ish midway through the fourth and then I said,
- 27:18Speaker 4: I think they crack the code or they get something
- 27:22Speaker 4: happened to the Colts offense that turns into a game
- 27:25Speaker 4: that is more reflective of probably a different than the teams.
- 27:30Speaker 5: But I think the Colts to keep it close for
- 27:32Speaker 5: about the first forty five minutes.
- 27:35Speaker 2: It's a sixty minute game, well fifty.
- 27:36Speaker 5: Two minutes, howbout fifty two.
- 27:38Speaker 2: Either way, That leaves eight minutes of havoc.
- 27:41Speaker 4: I think it's one's decided by the Jaguars being the
- 27:43Speaker 4: better team in the last ten minutes of the game.
- 27:46Speaker 2: Sounds good to me. Bucky. We will talk to you
- 27:50Speaker 2: on Sunday.
- 27:52Speaker 3: The man looking forward to it.
