  Speaker 1: You've toached a lot of great running backs over the years.
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: Whose style does he remind you of now that you've
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: had twelve games with him? I would say, I don't know.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: I think I'd have to start off saying maybe Eric Dickinson.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Eric was a big, powerful guy, long tall Eric Ob
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: was long and taller than him and probably faster, but
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: he would be more that kind of guy. Um, I
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: would I might want to compare him to a guy
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: here named Bob Jackson, but I did not do that. Uh,
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: that guy was a little bit un human. Uh. He
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: couldn't be with Marcus Allen. Uh, you know he had
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: a guy in Washington, d C. That had a pretty
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: good career named Steven Davis, and Stephen was Stephen was
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: a good back. The other guy that I had, like
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: like James, would have been a guy named Terry Allen.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: Terry Allen and they went over the Clemson I had him.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: He used to be with the Minnesota Vikings. Uh, you
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: know all these guys probably was before you was born, Jason.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you don't know if you know
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: about these guys, but he would be in that category
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: like uh, Steven Davis. Uh, Terry Allen. Those kind of
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: guys just uh just slippery, uh, very very good running
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: behind his pants. Uh, can see a hole and get
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: to it, can jump cut when he needs to, good hands,
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: better hands come out of the backfield, and people think
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: and out did his space was hard to get down at.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: A slipperness about him that you know guys, guys will
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: hit him and fall off you know, it's like, wow,
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: he must be geting vasilino on or something. You know,
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: Guys hit him and fall off of him. So he
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: would probably be in probably be in that category. I
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: think the top and I hate to always call that,
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: but the top three guys I've ever coached, have been
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: around would have been about Jackson, Marcus Allen, Eric Dickinson,
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: and then the next group would have been the Terry Allan's.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: Um uh you know what else I miss A guy?
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: I missed a guy that it Uh so you make me,
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: you made me open up that that that cabinet a
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: little bit. So that was a guy. That was a
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: guy I had in the Atlanta named Michael Turner. Yes,
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: why I had it in the Atlanta named Michael Turner.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: But that uh I had him in the Atlanta when
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: we left Atlanta. He was the leading Russia, uh, the
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: leading probu of the leading score. Uh. He was him
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: and James was exactly the same. Mike might have been
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: a little bit faster, but that's the same guy. Just Uh.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: I call him a squatt squatty body with a big
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: head that can put that head on you and run
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: over you. And I can run away from you, can
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: stiff on you. Uh. And Mike had great just like
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: just like, just like this guy. Mike had great, great
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: leg drive. One guy hitting him, two guys hitting him.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: Michael have five or six guys that hit him. He
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: can drag him in just like you saw this guy do.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: I would have touched Doown a week ago. I got
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: hit on about the four yard line and drugged by
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: four guys in the ends of for touchdowns. I'd have
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: to say he'd been been, probably been like that guy.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: I knew you'd have a long list to guys. I
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: knew I could cut on you for that. Now you
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: mentioned the slippery aspect of his game, you know, having
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: tacklers break off of him. Is that something you can teach. No,
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: that's just him. That's something he's got. That's something those
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: guys have I'd like to say I give I give
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: it to him, but I didn't. God give it to him. Uh.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: You can teach a guy how to plant cut, you know,
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: and uh put the foot in the ground and go left,
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: go right, give him a leg taken away, you can
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: teach that a lot of that stuff. Uh, stiff him.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: You can definitely teach a guy how to stiff on
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: the guy and be good with it. But Jamie has
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: got that God given ability to get on the low,
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: get behind his pads, Uh, drive and turned with his
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: legs and his feet and uh and be slippery, like
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: I said, be slipper to a point that they'll fall off,
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: you know, the guys who hit him and fall right
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: off of it. Terri Biscuit with US Jaguars running backs coach.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: How does James stamina? I mean, it's the equivalent of
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: a college season now so far, and he's been the
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: only running back really to get touches is the last
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: month or so. It feels like there's been a few exceptions.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: How's he holding up physically and mentally after the scrind Well? Uh,
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: he I think he's holding it well. I think he's
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: doing good. I think James does a very good job
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: of taking care of his body. Uh, you know, on
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: his off days, I think he's doing the things he
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: needs to do to stay fresh, to stay good. I
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: think he's had times that he looked at the sideline
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: and maybe want to come out. You know, he might
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: want to rest, But I told him he's very Uh,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: he's barely eligible. He's barely barely eligible to vote. So
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: you've gotta be eligible to vote before you can come
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: out and rest. No, he ain't doing that. He's still young,
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: you're still fresh. We still need you in again to
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: go play. You gotta go play. So he's doing okay.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: So he's running the ball two twelve times this year,
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: twelve of those carries, only twelve are for negative yardage.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: He's always fighting, even if he gets hit in the backfield,
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: he's finding a way to get back to the line
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: of scripts somehow. That's obviously at testament to the offensive line,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: but certainly James as well. That combination I think has
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: made that number really low this year. That it's a
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: it's an exceptional number. He's always getting yardage going forward.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: That's certainly important, and that's very very important. That's that's
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: that's a big thing. Uh. That is something coach warhop
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: old Lion coach does a great job of preaching and
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: talking about. Uh. And and that's one thing Joyce Joys
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Old Lion coach says. The good thing about this guy,
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: he says he's always falling forward here. He says, he's
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: never a negative runner. Uh. Plus he says he's a
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: four point four average percary guy, which is hard to
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: see and a lot of guys coming out, but James
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: is a guy who just give him a crease, he'll
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: get it back to the line of scrimmage. You don't
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: have to block him all. He'll get it back to
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage. And uh, you know, a lot
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: of guys say, just give me a little crease, I'll
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: get in it. James the guy can do it. I mean,
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: he's a guy that, uh tell those guys in the huddle,
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: you know, hey, give me just a crack, Just give
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: me a little people, I'll get through it. And he
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: comes out the other side. He finds a way to
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: come out the other side, and he's a positive runner.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: That's a great thing to happen. Can we get this
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: guy in the Pro Bowl? Um, that's your job. My
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: job is to do what with it. Get him in
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl. That becomes you guys on the radio
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: and PR department, and that's a PR thing, come to think.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: But yeah, I think it's a PR thing. That's your
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: guys job to promote that part of it and get
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: it going. I'm gonna do everything I can to keep
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: him going north and south, to keep those positive runs. Uh,
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: to try to keep him up right. You know the
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: thing I can do with that, Try to make sure
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: you hit the right hole and uh do the right
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: things in the fast protection. I'll do that
