  Speaker 1: Uh, it's his right shoulder. I don't have any further
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: details until he gets evaluated, either tonight or back in
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: back in Jacksonville. Is it a thing where he could
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: have stayed in if the game were down. I mean,
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: at the time it was it was severe enough that
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: that he couldn't continue. That's all I know. It is
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: getting cleared yesterday kind of followed the plane you would
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: kind of hope for. Was there any residual effects from
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: not practicing pretty much? I mean, I I can't. You
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: can't pin this all on on the quarterback, right, I mean,
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: everybody else practiced, and you know we we didn't as
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: a team. It it was it wasn't good. Sense of
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: urgency wasn't there. You know, we didn't execute very well
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: on offense. The turnovers keep piling up, you know, the
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: run game, all that kind of stuff, and it just
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: it just a affects, you know, it affects the whole
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: the whole process. And and so it's it's not not
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: one guy, you know, it's it's it's the coaches, myself, players,
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: you know, we're all in this together. Crisis point for
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: you at this I would say, yeah, you know, I
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: mean four game skid crisis. I mean, you know, our
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: goals are still in front of us. Nothing's changed there.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: But somewhere, somewhere we've got to you know, uh, we've
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: got to stop this. Uh, you know, damn from from
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: busting wide open. Doug, what is it that you wanted
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: to see today to think that you can break through
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: this whole cycle that you didn't? Well, you want to
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: see a win, right, You want to see the guys
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: come to this game and and have that sense of urgency.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: And and I give Tampa a lot of credit. They came,
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: they came ready to play. They're they're playing for the
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: same things we're playing for, you know, in their in
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: their division. So it's just got a means something to everybody.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: And and today I just didn't. I didn't think it meant,
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: you know, as much to us as it did to them. Doug,
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: did you consider it at all? Not started Trevor today?
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: I did not. I did not. Once Trevor was was
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: cleared and and he was good, you know, he spent
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: the week in the meetings and all that, I did
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: not hesitate, you know, again, once he was cleared, you know,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: he's our starter, and and uh, and we roll's which
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you can't even answer it, but
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: the same self inflicted mistakes, unforced errors. You must be
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: at a loss to tell us. But I mean, I
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: know it's it's I can't go out there and you
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: know do it. You know, Press can't do it, Mike
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: Calbo can't. I mean, the players at some point have
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: to have enough pride right to to not turn I
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: know they're they're listen, they're they're not trying to turn
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: the ball over. But but there has to be a
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: sense of urgency to have, you know, the ball security,
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: to protect the football. And it's not there right now.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: So what's the message you're gonna bring to them Monday, Tuesday,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: whatever that is you hit Rid for Carolina, Well, the
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: message is still you know, our our goals are still
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: in front of us. Everything's still right there. You know.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: Obviously the division is is kind of wide open. We
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: we've kind of opened that door. But but we've gotta
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: we gotta focus on one game at a time, you know,
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: and and that's what we're gonna do. You see yourselves
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: at the top of the division, even with the slide
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: that you go out, I mean, in in my brain,
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: in my mind, that's you know, that's that's that's what
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: I hope for, you know. Uh, but obviously we've got
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: a lot of things to fix. A lot of places
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: has been that first half and then I don't even
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: know if we've got a target. It it's like half
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: with that just hit them getting lost in the shuffle
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: or whatever. Now we we shifted gears a little bit
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: and try to get Calvin going a little bit more.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: But a lot of thought Elijah did some some good things.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: Uh did you consider benching Trevor when it got to
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: be thirty to nothing? I mean he did go back
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: out there and let a touchdown drive and there was
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: a touchdown past the Calvin. Not at that time. No, Now,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: I felt like if again, if we could, if we
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: could find the end zone and score. You know, yes,
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: we were in. We were in hurry up two minutes
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: the rest of the way. But but I did not
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: consider it at that time. I guess I have to ask,
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: why were you just trying to get him some confidence
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: back or what I mean? I think I know and
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: I you know, I never want to throw in the
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: towel and that's nothing against you know, CJ. But you know,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: I felt like too that, you know, Trevor, with our
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: offense and the way the way we do things, you know,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: just just get him, get him going, and get the
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: guys going around him. And and so I never, I
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: never considered, you know, taking taking him out at that time. Injury. Yeah,
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: he just just the back. You should be fine.
