• 0:44
  Speaker 3: coming up on the show today, preseason week one to
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: see the Chiefs, the champions come to town and they'll
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: play some starters, as will the Jags. We'll get to
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: that coming up. The offensive chemistry continues to grow, and
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: there's a new look defense we'll hear from Nator Ryan
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: Nielsen coming up in a little bit as well. Bucky
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: Brooks joining us now from Los Angeles, and that we're
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: only just a few days away. Finally Bucky from Football
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: on the Grass under the lights.
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: Good afternoon, man, what's up guys.
• 1:16
  Speaker 5: It's look, it's exciting because we are a few days away.
• 1:19
  Speaker 5: We got the defending world champs coming in and even
• 1:22
  Speaker 5: though preseason doesn't count, it certainly matters, and it no
• 1:26
  Speaker 5: matter for a lot of guys that are hoping Tomato
• 1:27
  Speaker 5: Squad is year.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, certainly a lot of guys that are trying to
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: make that team.
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: We kind of have a pretty good idea look at
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: the depth chart right that came out in the game
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: release this week of what they're thinking, and a lot
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: of that could change in time, but this is a
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: group John that for the most part has their starting guys.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: If you will air quotes ready to go.
• 1:50
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's very very important for guys trying to make
• 1:52
  Speaker 6: the team. It's it's important for us to be knocked off.
• 1:58
  Speaker 6: I don't know how important. And it is in the
• 2:01
  Speaker 6: granular meaning if the Jaguars come out and get one
• 2:05
  Speaker 6: first down and don't score a touchdown, it's not reason
• 2:09
  Speaker 6: to jump off a bridge. But it is very important
• 2:11
  Speaker 6: for the offensive line to start getting a little bit
• 2:13
  Speaker 6: of cohesion together. They'd love to look good, but primarily
• 2:19
  Speaker 6: in terms of importance. It's critically important the last two
• 2:22
  Speaker 6: and a half quarters. Let's for the guys who are
• 2:24
  Speaker 6: trying to make this team.
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: Let's hear if from head coach Doug Peterson asked about
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: playing time in the preseason first game. We'll get to
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: that coming up. Head coach Doug Peterson did say yes.
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: In the past, he has been known to play the
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: starters in the first quarter a couple drives in the
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: first preseason game.
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: That seems to be the idea, Bucky, and it makes sense.
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: And the next week the Buccaneers coming to town and
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: they'll have a couple of dual practices where the starters
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: might not play in the game. So you're gonna get
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: them some time at some point. Why not Saturday night
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: under the lights?
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: Well, this is also part of what Doug Peterson has
• 3:10
  Speaker 5: learned from Andy Reid. One of the reasons the Can't
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: See Chiefs have been so good for so long is
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: they attacked the first month of the regular season. And
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: part of the reason they're able to attack the first
• 3:17
  Speaker 5: month of the regular seasons because they do a really
• 3:20
  Speaker 5: good job of running hard training camps in preseason, like
• 3:24
  Speaker 5: they go after they put their guys on the field.
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: The starters play two series.
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: The first game, they played maybe a quarter the second game,
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: and they're ready to go.
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: So they generally hit.
• 3:34
  Speaker 5: The ground running and there's some continuity, there's some chemistry
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: and everything is going forward. For the Jaguars, I think
• 3:40
  Speaker 5: there's more of an emphasis on making sure they get
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: off to a fast start, which is why we may
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: see the guys play a little more than we've seen
• 3:46
  Speaker 5: them play in the past.
• 3:48
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I expect probably a quarter for the starters this week.
• 3:53
  Speaker 6: It seems like for Doug that depends a little bit
• 3:57
  Speaker 6: on more plays than series. If you know, if you
• 4:01
  Speaker 6: go three and out once and then get five plays,
• 4:03
  Speaker 6: you might see him for a third.
• 4:05
  Speaker 7: That's just speculation, but yeah, I.
• 4:07
  Speaker 6: Mean this is a year where you better attack because
• 4:10
  Speaker 6: you're going to get attacked the first month of the season.
• 4:12
  Speaker 6: So it's it's a tough start, at least on paper.
• 4:16
  Speaker 6: So it's critical they be ready. And you know, it's
• 4:21
  Speaker 6: hard to know were they ready not ready in twenty
• 4:25
  Speaker 6: two because that was such a weird dynamic coming into
• 4:27
  Speaker 6: that year with your first year. But I thought they
• 4:29
  Speaker 6: came out fine last year. I think Doug gets them
• 4:31
  Speaker 6: ready to play early. You know, for me, it's just
• 4:34
  Speaker 6: a matter of whether it's schedule. Yeah, right, tough, you know,
• 4:39
  Speaker 6: that's it's a tough schedule first month.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: It's sir, three of the first four in the road
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: for sure.
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: On the other side of a bucky Andy Reid said
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: today that he plans on playing the Chiefs starters for
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: about a quarter and that includes Patrick Mahomes. And that
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: seems to be the norm for Andy Reid as well,
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: even though they're winning championships.
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that is the norm.
• 4:58
  Speaker 5: But part of the reason they've been able to win
• 5:00
  Speaker 5: championships because they do play their guys early.
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: He is as innovative.
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: As he is as an offensive coach, he is also
• 5:07
  Speaker 5: a guy that believes in an old school training camp,
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: in an old school philosophy.
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: I think this is a great test.
• 5:12
  Speaker 5: It's a great starting point for the Jaguars defense because
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: they get to see the best quarterback in the league.
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: They get to see a revamp wide receiver corps that
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: has plenty of speed.
• 5:21
  Speaker 5: So all of the things that we have seen go
• 5:23
  Speaker 5: on throughout the offseason, oas in training camp, will get
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: a chance to see how that that the secondary, how
• 5:31
  Speaker 5: the defensive backfield holds up against one of the better
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: groups in the league.
• 5:34
  Speaker 7: Yep.
• 5:36
  Speaker 6: It would be a great time, a great quarter for
• 5:39
  Speaker 6: the Jaguars defense to play fast.
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 5:42
  Speaker 6: It has seemed in training camp to be playing fast
• 5:47
  Speaker 6: and with confidence in this scheme. It doesn't seem like
• 5:50
  Speaker 6: they are confused by it. It seems like they're confident
• 5:55
  Speaker 6: with it and.
• 6:00
  Speaker 7: They will get tested. I guess what I'm getting.
• 6:02
  Speaker 6: I mean, if you would love to see them be
• 6:05
  Speaker 6: able to come out of this game with at least
• 6:08
  Speaker 6: a little bit of confidence left from playing against the Chiefs.
• 6:11
  Speaker 6: They can take your confidence away quickly.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: Now they're not going to scheme too much for this game.
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: Either side really right, But.
• 6:19
  Speaker 7: No, they're not.
• 6:20
  Speaker 6: But you still want to come out if you're a
• 6:25
  Speaker 6: defensive team. And Bucket can speak this more than I
• 6:27
  Speaker 6: can because he played. But if your a defensive team
• 6:30
  Speaker 6: has been playing fast, been feeling good about yourself, it's
• 6:34
  Speaker 6: not the end of the world if they don't have
• 6:36
  Speaker 6: a good game against the Chiefs, but you sure would
• 6:38
  Speaker 6: feel better about yourself if you come off it had
• 6:40
  Speaker 6: a little bit of success against this team, then you
• 6:43
  Speaker 6: can say, Okay, these things were applying, they worked. It
• 6:46
  Speaker 6: held up that's only whatever percent they think everything is right.
• 6:52
  Speaker 7: But at least we had this good first step, Bucky.
• 6:54
  Speaker 6: I think, you know, for a young defense, that's important or.
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: It's just important just in terms of like the trust
• 7:02
  Speaker 5: that you have between player and coach, and so all
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: off season leading up you talked about we're gonna play
• 7:07
  Speaker 5: this time, We're gonna play fast, and if we do
• 7:09
  Speaker 5: these things, good things are going to happen. You would
• 7:12
  Speaker 5: like to see those things happen right away. And if
• 7:15
  Speaker 5: they are going to play a lot of man on
• 7:17
  Speaker 5: man coverage and you think about the speed that the
• 7:19
  Speaker 5: Chiefs have added in the offseason, Xavier Worthy, Marquise Hollywood Brown,
• 7:23
  Speaker 5: it would give us as Jaguars fans and supports, an
• 7:27
  Speaker 5: opportunity to see how they stack up with some of
• 7:30
  Speaker 5: the faster teams with an eye towards the Miami Dolphins
• 7:33
  Speaker 5: in Week one.
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: If they do a.
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: Really good job the first quarter against a track team
• 7:38
  Speaker 5: and a dominant quarterback, you feel better going into the
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: regular season that they're gonna be able to hold up
• 7:42
  Speaker 5: against the Miami Dolphins in some way, shape or form.
• 7:45
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's about confidence to me. This game for them,
• 7:47
  Speaker 6: I mean, you play well you come out of it
• 7:49
  Speaker 6: a little bit. You don't want to just have two
• 7:52
  Speaker 6: series where they go right down the field and then
• 7:54
  Speaker 6: you're questioning yourself next week.
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: Well, there's for certain. Don't be lolly gagging in the
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: park lot. You might want to get in the stadium
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: early because that first quarter is where it's at. You know,
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: you know it'll be coming in late.
• 8:07
  Speaker 6: Well yeah, because if if you want to see the starters,
• 8:10
  Speaker 6: that's sorry. Both these guys are going to take the
• 8:11
  Speaker 6: same approach. So yeah, if you want to see Trevor
• 8:14
  Speaker 6: versus Mahomes, it's not going to get decided in the
• 8:17
  Speaker 6: fourth quarter, not at all.
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: Saturday's Chiefs Jaguars game is presented by ticket Master, the
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: official ticket marketplace with the Jacksonville Jaguars and the NFL.
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: We're back in a moment Mitch Moore Jaguars Center, new
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: to the equation this year, and we'll discuss the offensive line.
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: It's huddle up with Bucky Brooks.
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: This a resilience of the group.
• 8:50
  Speaker 8: You know, we had a few guys go down, as
• 8:51
  Speaker 8: is the nature of training camp, and you know guys
• 8:55
  Speaker 8: stepped in then Bat and ee uh worked when they
• 8:59
  Speaker 8: had to, and the great thing about that is and
• 9:02
  Speaker 8: when you go off the field, you have this huge
• 9:05
  Speaker 8: kind of relaxed feel because you know you put your
• 9:08
  Speaker 8: work in and then we can make the adjustments and
• 9:10
  Speaker 8: feel free to run and fly around make mistakes because
• 9:13
  Speaker 8: we're just trying to hear to get better, and I
• 9:15
  Speaker 8: think this group does a very good job of that.
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: That's Mitch Morris earlier this week, ten year Veterans Center,
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: first year with the Jacksonville Jaguars and welcome back. It's

• 9:50
  Speaker 3: very special intimate performance and for tickets and info visit
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: Daily's Place dot com. Leadender Indeed, quite a night on

  Speaker 3: the twenty fourth.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: You've seen John Legend, buck.
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: I have seen John Legend before. Nice, it should be great.
• 10:05
  Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I like John Legend I mean, I'm not
• 10:07
  Speaker 6: a Yeah I AD follower, but I think he's great.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: Fair, fair enough offensive line.
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: Mitch Morse, it sounds like you who's been around the
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: league for a long time and has plenty of experience,
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: and obviously with Kansas City, with Buffalo, with successful organizations.
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: So you know, Bucky, how far does that go? I
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: think that was obviously a theme of some of the
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: players they brought in in free agency, guys who have
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: been in winning organizations before. How real is that with
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: Mitch Morse? And is that is that real that it
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: kind of can carry over to a unit?
• 10:44
  Speaker 5: Well, it absolutely can carry over to a unit, because
• 10:46
  Speaker 5: the more people that you have from winning programs, the
• 10:48
  Speaker 5: more they understand the standards that must be met each
• 10:52
  Speaker 5: and every day to be a winning program yourself. I
• 10:54
  Speaker 5: think after last year's disappointment, Doug Peterson was very intentional
• 10:58
  Speaker 5: about the players that it added to the locker room,
• 11:00
  Speaker 5: not only in free agency, but also in the draft.
• 11:04
  Speaker 5: They want a guys who winning programs, who played in
• 11:07
  Speaker 5: big games, who understand what's required to play in big games,
• 11:10
  Speaker 5: who also understand the pressure that you have to be
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: able to play with down the stretch. If you talk
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: about being a team that has title aspirations, you have
• 11:20
  Speaker 5: to play well the final month of the season when
• 11:22
  Speaker 5: all the expectations are high or the pressure is on
• 11:25
  Speaker 5: you in a series of winner go home games. Mitch
• 11:29
  Speaker 5: Morris's experience doing that in Buffalo to go along with
• 11:34
  Speaker 5: Eric Armstead, Ron.
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: Darby and some of the other veterans.
• 11:36
  Speaker 5: It's only going to enhance what is already in the
• 11:39
  Speaker 5: fold as this team tries to become a mature team
• 11:42
  Speaker 5: that can handle the weight of the expectations that will
• 11:45
  Speaker 5: be associated with the team that should be a title
• 11:47
  Speaker 5: contender at some point.
• 11:48
  Speaker 6: They have so many more guys now JP who get it,
• 11:51
  Speaker 6: who understand what the league is. And this isn't necessarily
• 11:55
  Speaker 6: with yes, Bucky, But like the other day when Mitch
• 11:58
  Speaker 6: was talking about offensive line play and sort of what
• 12:02
  Speaker 6: you can get out of it in training camp, and
• 12:05
  Speaker 6: he went in pretty good detail and perspective about how, look,
• 12:10
  Speaker 6: you're not going to really be able to work on
• 12:11
  Speaker 6: all the things that you need to work on as
• 12:13
  Speaker 6: an offensive line during training camp. You can do it
• 12:16
  Speaker 6: a few times, but he said, the coaches really have
• 12:19
  Speaker 6: a dilemma in that if you want to work on
• 12:21
  Speaker 6: short yardage and goal line. You know, good luck in
• 12:25
  Speaker 6: training camp.
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: Like two days, that's it.
• 12:27
  Speaker 6: You can work on stances and timing a little bit,
• 12:31
  Speaker 6: but you can't practice brawling on the goal line in
• 12:34
  Speaker 6: the NFL five times in training camp and risk losing guys.
• 12:38
  Speaker 6: So he said that's why. Really, as an offensive line, yes,
• 12:41
  Speaker 6: you want to be good early, but you want to
• 12:44
  Speaker 6: be sometimes. You've got to be peeking late in the season.
• 12:47
  Speaker 6: You should be getting better as the season goes on
• 12:49
  Speaker 6: because you've done it more. You can't spend training camp
• 12:52
  Speaker 6: getting December ready for September. That's not to say they
• 12:56
  Speaker 6: don't want to be good, but I think what that
• 12:58
  Speaker 6: sort of perspective from Mitch Moore shows you is you
• 13:02
  Speaker 6: have more guys who he understands that by extension, he
• 13:05
  Speaker 6: understands you know, how you prepare in September, how you
• 13:08
  Speaker 6: prepare in October, what the league is. When there was
• 13:12
  Speaker 6: a slide last year, I assume Mitch Morris would have
• 13:15
  Speaker 6: had a lot of perspective on how to handle, Hey,
• 13:16
  Speaker 6: it's starting to go tough.
• 13:18
  Speaker 7: Here's what we have to do to get back to it.
• 13:20
  Speaker 6: So absolutely, I think that kind of veteran stuff matters
• 13:23
  Speaker 6: just in terms of how to handle situations as they
• 13:26
  Speaker 6: arise during the season. You've got him, You've got Ronald Darby, Armstead,
• 13:30
  Speaker 6: Gabe Davis has been around. All the guys we talked
• 13:32
  Speaker 6: about all off season. You would ideally love to grow it.
• 13:36
  Speaker 6: You want those guys to be homegrown. They didn't have that,
• 13:39
  Speaker 6: so instead of getting home grown, they went to the
• 13:41
  Speaker 6: store and bought it. And it feels Bucky like they are.
• 13:47
  Speaker 6: Not only did they get the experience, but they brought
• 13:50
  Speaker 6: in guys with the ability to mesh once they're here.
• 13:53
  Speaker 6: I don't know if all guys who are brought into
• 13:57
  Speaker 6: a team fit, but we talked when you were here, Buck,
• 14:00
  Speaker 6: how this team feels like they know the kind of
• 14:03
  Speaker 6: players they want now, whereas maybe in Doug's first year
• 14:07
  Speaker 6: they were still kind of searching for that sauce.
• 14:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we've talked about that. We've talked about how to me.
• 14:13
  Speaker 5: I definitely believe there's a type right trim Balke and
• 14:17
  Speaker 5: those guys on the front office side, they certainly have
• 14:19
  Speaker 5: gone over a physical prototype that they want at every position.
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: You look at the secondary, the secondary is noticeably bigger
• 14:25
  Speaker 5: and longer than it's been in the past, but I
• 14:28
  Speaker 5: think if you talk about just the personalities that the
• 14:31
  Speaker 5: team has brought, very mature, very professional guys that are
• 14:35
  Speaker 5: really about the preparation part of the job, and guys
• 14:39
  Speaker 5: that have had success in the league, winning they get it.
• 14:42
  Speaker 5: To me, it's a team with not only a high IQ,
• 14:46
  Speaker 5: but a high EQ in terms of their emotional control
• 14:49
  Speaker 5: and the stability and what they have. There are a
• 14:51
  Speaker 5: lot of guys to me that are gonna come out.
• 14:54
  Speaker 5: They're gonna take care of business, and that is what
• 14:57
  Speaker 5: Doug wants.
• 14:57
  Speaker 4: And we'll see if they're edgy enough when.
• 15:00
  Speaker 5: They take on some of those those teams that are
• 15:02
  Speaker 5: regarded as bullies. But I do know this is a
• 15:05
  Speaker 5: smart team. It's a tough team. It's fast. Now they
• 15:09
  Speaker 5: got to put it together and execute. If they do
• 15:11
  Speaker 5: those things, they gonna wint a lot of games.
• 15:12
  Speaker 6: Now we're gonna go to a guy with a high
• 15:14
  Speaker 6: Q rating.
• 15:15
  Speaker 7: JP Shaddow.
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: Wow, thanks, Sehn, appreciate that.
• 15:18
  Speaker 6: Q seemed to be the theme of Bucky's answer.
• 15:21
  Speaker 7: Silently you think.
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: So, Bucky, when you were here, what do you think
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: of the offensive line? But just a few days being
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: around that group, it's.
• 15:32
  Speaker 5: Really hard, right, It's really hard. To tell, I would
• 15:34
  Speaker 5: say that they're a huge question mark. I think coming
• 15:36
  Speaker 5: into the season, there are two main questions that you
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: have about the team. One is the offensive line. The
• 15:41
  Speaker 5: second one is going to be the secondary. I feel
• 15:43
  Speaker 5: really optimistic about the secondary being able to hold up
• 15:46
  Speaker 5: just after watching them and watch them understand now that
• 15:48
  Speaker 5: depending can change. After we see them get a little
• 15:51
  Speaker 5: work against Kan City Chiefs and dealing with fast playmakers
• 15:54
  Speaker 5: on the outside. The offensive line is one that last
• 15:57
  Speaker 5: year they just didn't play enough together. Injuries and suspensions
• 16:01
  Speaker 5: and everything really kept that first five for men together.
• 16:05
  Speaker 5: Of course Mitch Morse wasn't there, but now they're together.
• 16:08
  Speaker 5: How do they play as a unit. Because of all
• 16:11
  Speaker 5: the units on the team, this is the one unit
• 16:14
  Speaker 5: that has to play literally as one. They have to
• 16:16
  Speaker 5: be really connected. They got to make sure that they
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: can finish each other's sentences because communication verbal and non
• 16:22
  Speaker 5: verbal is important. And they need to make sure that
• 16:26
  Speaker 5: we don't have negative gains or negative runs because we're
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: behind the chains too often, and so it's about running
• 16:34
  Speaker 5: the football effectively. Doesn't mean that we're the old school
• 16:37
  Speaker 5: Jags with Fred Taylor and Marius Jones Drew, but you
• 16:40
  Speaker 5: got to run the football effectively on early downs, and
• 16:42
  Speaker 5: then you got to protect number sixteen so he doesn't
• 16:45
  Speaker 5: get beat up and he doesn't have a number of
• 16:46
  Speaker 5: turnovers that are caused because the pocket is leaky and
• 16:49
  Speaker 5: he has defenders in his face.
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: We're back in a moment and we'll touch on this
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: new look defense. We'll hear from the defensive coordinator, Ryan
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: Nielsen as well. Jags fans customized Jaguars furniture for your home.

  Speaker 3: Check out zipshare dot com and browse all customizable options
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: Zip Chair furniture for fans. This is huddle up with
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: Bucky Brooks.
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: Never dog days, Never dog days. It's awesome to be here.
• 17:22
  Speaker 9: Our guys are a great outlook, really.
• 17:25
  Speaker 4: Tough group, tough minded group.
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: It's just another opportunity to get better, you know, and
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: we just take one day at a time, one practice
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: at a time, one rep at a time. Ryan Nielsen,
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: Jaguars defensive coordinator, welcome back.
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: It's huddled up with Bucky Brooks.
• 17:40
  Speaker 6: They're absolutely dog Ryan Nielsen's fine, it's great. I get
• 17:45
  Speaker 6: I get the message. But we just got through and
• 17:49
  Speaker 6: they're not dog days compared to what Bucky played in
• 17:52
  Speaker 6: because then we're two a day. Those are real dog days.
• 17:54
  Speaker 6: But in the context of this camp, JP to me
• 17:57
  Speaker 6: the last four days, not today, but before this day off,
• 18:00
  Speaker 6: on Tuesday, Friday through Monday, we sort of talked about it.
• 18:05
  Speaker 6: Those were the dog days. They were hitting a little bit.
• 18:07
  Speaker 6: Even Monday, when they moved indoors. I kind of came
• 18:10
  Speaker 6: over here, thinking that's gonna be a light practice.
• 18:11
  Speaker 7: They were hitting.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: I mean, there was a scrum.
• 18:14
  Speaker 6: So those were the ones that I feel like you
• 18:16
  Speaker 6: had to get through. Now you're into it where you
• 18:18
  Speaker 6: practice for two days now day off, games day off,
• 18:23
  Speaker 6: then you get the bucks coming in. Everybody likes to
• 18:25
  Speaker 6: play against somebody else if there are dog days, And
• 18:30
  Speaker 6: any player listening now who played before twenty eleven is
• 18:34
  Speaker 6: laughing when I say dog days because they don't exist.
• 18:38
  Speaker 6: But if they were, it was this last weekend, what do.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: You think bucking still dog days?
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: I would look.
• 18:45
  Speaker 5: I would say that the dog days because the monotony
• 18:47
  Speaker 5: of what they're doing, the routine has been the same,
• 18:50
  Speaker 5: like it's the same thing.
• 18:51
  Speaker 4: Every day is like roundhog Day. You go over and
• 18:53
  Speaker 4: go to the.
• 18:53
  Speaker 5: Facility, you eat there, meet and get on the field,
• 18:56
  Speaker 5: and this and that and over and over and over again.
• 18:59
  Speaker 5: The excite for a player comes when we get to
• 19:02
  Speaker 5: the games, when the stadium is packed and you get
• 19:04
  Speaker 5: a chance to compete against another team. So yeah, I
• 19:07
  Speaker 5: would say those last four days probably were the dog days.
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: But their games are on the horizon. You can see
• 19:13
  Speaker 4: the light at the end of the tunnel.
• 19:15
  Speaker 7: Here's an amazing thing to be Bucky.
• 19:16
  Speaker 6: And again, old man O's you're sitting over here yelling
• 19:20
  Speaker 6: at clouds. It's been fourteen years since there was a
• 19:24
  Speaker 6: two day practice in the NFL.
• 19:27
  Speaker 7: That's why, I mean, you know, so.
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: It is wild that that's no longer the thing.
• 19:33
  Speaker 5: Because I don't know who I was starting to Oh,
• 19:36
  Speaker 5: maybe I was talking to Ronnie Pitts. I was at
• 19:37
  Speaker 5: a practice and I was just talking about like the
• 19:41
  Speaker 5: old two a day model, where you would be up
• 19:43
  Speaker 5: and on the field.
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: At eight o'clock you'd be off the field. You have
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: to hurry up, you know, you take a shower.
• 19:48
  Speaker 5: Sometimes you get taped for the afternoon practice because you
• 19:51
  Speaker 5: didn't want to waste time. You want to be able
• 19:52
  Speaker 5: to take a full nap, then go back and put
• 19:55
  Speaker 5: on the paths at two thirty and do it all
• 19:57
  Speaker 5: over again. Well now they have like that second walk through,
• 20:00
  Speaker 5: but it certainly is not like a real two a day.
• 20:03
  Speaker 5: It's a lot of jog through, a lot of meeting.
• 20:05
  Speaker 5: You only have twelve hours to be in the facility.
• 20:08
  Speaker 5: It's a much different field of training camp. But I
• 20:10
  Speaker 5: won't like disrespect what the guys are going through. It's
• 20:13
  Speaker 5: just a different kind of dog day than the dog
• 20:15
  Speaker 5: days that the old timers had.
• 20:16
  Speaker 6: You and else was better back in the day, Bucky,
• 20:19
  Speaker 6: go ahead, everything man.
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: We heard from Nielsen there new look defense. We heard
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: from Trayvon Walker earlier this week. He was at the
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: podium Bucky and was asked about his excitement for the
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: new scheme and playing with his hand in the ground
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: and said he wasn't going to miss dropping in coverage.
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: Said it with a laugh, of course, but explain that.
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: But for him and Josh Heinz Allen, this is kind
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: of what they're looking forward to, right. I mean, hand
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: in the ground rushing is where it's at, and that's
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: something we've been looking for from Trayvon Walker especially.
• 20:58
  Speaker 5: Yeah, no, I'm this and I haven't had the opportunity
• 21:02
  Speaker 5: to hit on this platform. So this will be the
• 21:03
  Speaker 5: first time that you guys have heard it. Ryan Nilson's
• 21:06
  Speaker 5: defense to me is built for the core players that
• 21:09
  Speaker 5: the Jaguars having placed that will be in placed for
• 21:11
  Speaker 5: the next.
• 21:11
  Speaker 4: Five plus years. And those core.
• 21:14
  Speaker 5: Guys are Josh einz Allen and Treyvon Walker. It's built
• 21:17
  Speaker 5: for Devin Lloyd, It's built for Andre Cisco and Tyson Campbell.
• 21:21
  Speaker 5: And looking at all the schematic changes that Nielsen has made,
• 21:24
  Speaker 5: is designed to get those five guys up and going.
• 21:27
  Speaker 5: The two passers just handing the dirt going forward. Not
• 21:30
  Speaker 5: a whole lot of thinking when it comes to it.
• 21:32
  Speaker 5: Sea ball, getball, go hunting, attack. Devin Lloyd being moved
• 21:35
  Speaker 5: to the middle linebacker spot, there are a lot of
• 21:38
  Speaker 5: conversation about it. I expected that maybe he would be
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: on the edges based on what he did at Utah,
• 21:42
  Speaker 5: But now that I look at it, I can understand
• 21:44
  Speaker 5: why you put a very instinctive playmaker in the middle
• 21:47
  Speaker 5: of the defense, because what you're trying to do is
• 21:50
  Speaker 5: you're trying to free him up from responsibilities where he can.
• 21:53
  Speaker 4: Joke, just go hunt the ball.
• 21:55
  Speaker 5: Like he's been a playmaker throughout his career in college
• 21:57
  Speaker 5: and in the first couple of seasons even when he
• 21:59
  Speaker 5: was strutting and he still was always around the ball.
• 22:01
  Speaker 5: Put him in Mike linebacker, does that Andre Cisco. I
• 22:04
  Speaker 5: heard about the three interceptions in practice on Monday.
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: I picked off all of the quarterbacks in the building.
• 22:10
  Speaker 5: And he has been able to set traps and really
• 22:12
  Speaker 5: be the playmaker that we thought he would be in Syracuse.
• 22:15
  Speaker 5: And they were Tyson Campbell playing more Man de Man
• 22:18
  Speaker 5: wears nose to nose. They're not really trying to trick
• 22:20
  Speaker 5: people by playing off. It is more of an athletic
• 22:24
  Speaker 5: based defense because it's really simple to me. This defense
• 22:28
  Speaker 5: is going to work because the best players are going
• 22:31
  Speaker 5: to be asked to do things that are well within
• 22:33
  Speaker 5: their willelhouse and they should be successful doing those things.
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: And by the way, that Cisco practice was impressive. The
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: three picks off three quarterbacks.
• 22:42
  Speaker 6: By the end of it, it was almost amusing because Trevor,
• 22:48
  Speaker 6: who has been really good mistake free for about ten
• 22:52
  Speaker 6: days last when he could just hand it Chill. I
• 22:55
  Speaker 6: mean credit to Andre, but the first one he went
• 22:59
  Speaker 6: on got Betha over the side, a nice play.
• 23:02
  Speaker 7: The second two it.
• 23:05
  Speaker 6: Was sort of strange how Cisco's almost in the same
• 23:07
  Speaker 6: spot and the quarterback. Basically you know through right to
• 23:11
  Speaker 6: him and h but credit to him for catching them
• 23:14
  Speaker 6: because I've been around dvs and wouldn't have called him,
• 23:16
  Speaker 6: but but he has it appears it. I always hate
• 23:20
  Speaker 6: to come on these shows. How so and so is
• 23:22
  Speaker 6: playing great. I think Devon Hamilton's playing very, very well.
• 23:25
  Speaker 6: It's obvious to anybody. Sometimes it's hard to tell, but
• 23:28
  Speaker 6: it does look like Cisco is playing fast and comfortable,
• 23:32
  Speaker 6: and like Bucky said, it does feel like this defense
• 23:37
  Speaker 6: is just based more on getting these guys in a
• 23:41
  Speaker 6: situation where they can make plays on the ball, and
• 23:44
  Speaker 6: that's what we've sort of said about Devin Lloyd. Devin
• 23:46
  Speaker 6: Lloyd to me, remains the most fascinating player in the defense.
• 23:50
  Speaker 6: I'm sure as much as I can be sure about
• 23:53
  Speaker 6: a player that Trayvon is gonna be good this year.
• 23:55
  Speaker 6: I think Josh Allen's gonna be good, Devon Hamilton's gonna
• 23:59
  Speaker 6: be good. The one guy who has a chance to
• 24:01
  Speaker 6: be special. Have to account for a guy who I
• 24:05
  Speaker 6: don't know about is Devin Lloyd because he really hasn't
• 24:08
  Speaker 6: been He's been good, but I don't think in two
• 24:11
  Speaker 6: years he's been a guy where coordinators go into scheming
• 24:14
  Speaker 6: meetings on Wednesday and say we have to account for
• 24:17
  Speaker 6: Devin Lloyd that we're gonna lose.
• 24:19
  Speaker 7: I think the ourk coordinators, you.
• 24:20
  Speaker 6: Say we have to account for Trayvon or Josh Allen
• 24:22
  Speaker 6: this year might be Devon Hamilton, or we're gonna lose
• 24:24
  Speaker 6: the game. If Devin Lloyd becomes a guy you have
• 24:29
  Speaker 6: to scheme for a that gives him a lot of
• 24:32
  Speaker 6: guys like that, and it adds a dynamic that I'm
• 24:35
  Speaker 6: not sure they have otherwise.
• 24:38
  Speaker 5: Yeah, like John, I think you're right, And I know,
• 24:41
  Speaker 5: like there's been a lot of mixed opinions on Devin
• 24:45
  Speaker 5: Lloyd in.
• 24:45
  Speaker 4: Terms of how he's played since he's gotten to Jacksonville.
• 24:47
  Speaker 5: He's made a ton of plays, but he also appears
• 24:50
  Speaker 5: sometimes like a step later. He has been as impactful
• 24:53
  Speaker 5: as maybe you would hope a first rounded to be.
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: This move this defense. She really freaked all of that up.
• 24:59
  Speaker 5: It was weird because when I first noticed him at
• 25:02
  Speaker 5: Mike linebacker and Fouryer at Will linebacker, it kind of
• 25:05
  Speaker 5: goes against what the body types would suggest. But one
• 25:09
  Speaker 5: of the reasons why Devin Lloyd may be at Mike
• 25:12
  Speaker 5: there are fewer moving parts when it comes to him
• 25:14
  Speaker 5: playing mike linebacker, meaning when teams line up in three
• 25:18
  Speaker 5: by one, they line up in the expresses where they're bumping
• 25:20
  Speaker 5: and adjusting. The mike linebacker never departs the box, whereas
• 25:25
  Speaker 5: the will linebacker has to move and adjust to the
• 25:27
  Speaker 5: number two of the number three receivers.
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: So now that's another layer of responsibilities in.
• 25:32
  Speaker 5: Those things as a young player, and Devin Lloyd is
• 25:35
  Speaker 5: still a young player. Sometimes, man, you just want to
• 25:37
  Speaker 5: make it easy for him and allow him to really
• 25:39
  Speaker 5: see ball and get ball. Everything that they've talked about
• 25:43
  Speaker 5: on this defense is about simplifying it and letting the
• 25:46
  Speaker 5: players play fast. This is a move that's designed to
• 25:49
  Speaker 5: allow Devin Lloyd and all the other star players play
• 25:53
  Speaker 5: really fast.
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: And if they play fast, they can play really well.
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: And Devin said that you put on what ten to
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: fifteen pounds to play.
• 25:58
  Speaker 6: That told me he was between ten and twelve and
• 26:01
  Speaker 6: up to two fifty two, Yeah, which is again a
• 26:05
  Speaker 6: lot everything he's played.
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but you got to have that backy sometimes to
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: handle all that contact in the middle.
• 26:10
  Speaker 4: Right. Sometimes sometimes speed speed speed rules.
• 26:14
  Speaker 5: You know, and so sometimes like you just got to
• 26:15
  Speaker 5: be careful when you put on that kind of weight,
• 26:17
  Speaker 5: like does it slow him down, does it impact his
• 26:19
  Speaker 5: ability to make plays in the passing game and blitz
• 26:22
  Speaker 5: and all of that. So we'll see sometimes guys make
• 26:25
  Speaker 5: changes in the middle of the season because once they
• 26:27
  Speaker 5: start playing, they don't like how they feel at a
• 26:30
  Speaker 5: certain way. But I will say Ryan Nelson, Christ H.
• 26:33
  Speaker 5: Sharard and some of those other guys, they come from
• 26:35
  Speaker 5: that Pete Carroll school of defense. And when Pete Carroll
• 26:39
  Speaker 5: was at SC it was about simplicity, make it easy
• 26:42
  Speaker 5: for the players to allow them to go. When he
• 26:45
  Speaker 5: was at Seattle, it was the same thing, make it
• 26:47
  Speaker 5: easy for him that he had a lot of success
• 26:49
  Speaker 5: with young players because it was very similar. I'm not
• 26:52
  Speaker 5: saying this defense would be a carbon copy of what
• 26:55
  Speaker 5: Gus Bradley would do schematically, but I think from a
• 26:58
  Speaker 5: philosophical stamp point, we.
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: May see some similarities in.
• 27:02
  Speaker 5: Terms of like make it easy for the players, let's
• 27:04
  Speaker 5: roll it up, let's go play fast, and let's let
• 27:07
  Speaker 5: the players dictate the outcome in the game.
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: Jags fans, you're invited to the firehouse subs San Marco
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: location nineteen forty nine San Marco Boulevard, Friday August ninth,

• 27:52
  Speaker 6: when he was two.
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: Little more back door.
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, back with more of that in a moment, including
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: our final thoughts on huddle up with Bucky Brother.
• 28:10
  Speaker 9: It's real officials under the lights. Everything's magnified. You know,
• 28:14
  Speaker 9: the fall starts in practice, we kind of we correct it,
• 28:17
  Speaker 9: but fall start in the game. We back it up
• 28:19
  Speaker 9: five yards. You know, stuff like that becomes real. So
• 28:22
  Speaker 9: just those little things details, But at the same time,
• 28:26
  Speaker 9: you know, it's it's an opportunity for these guys to
• 28:28
  Speaker 9: really kind of showcase themselves and you know, put their
• 28:33

• 29:18
  Speaker 7: John, Yeah, I mean, look, I'm not a huge preseason guy,
• 29:22
  Speaker 7: but wait a minute, really, but first quarter.
• 29:26
  Speaker 6: This one has some compelling storylines. You'd rather be playing
• 29:32
  Speaker 6: against the Chiefs and Mahomes than not, so come out
• 29:35
  Speaker 6: enjoy it. And then there are some good storylines after
• 29:38
  Speaker 6: these guys are out after the starters are out. There's
• 29:41
  Speaker 6: a lot of good storylines on this on the scene
• 29:44
  Speaker 6: for this game, and you can read all about them
• 29:46
  Speaker 6: and my stories on Jaguars dot Com.

  Speaker 5: Quarters two through four, Watching a bunch of young guys
• 30:05
  Speaker 5: have an opportunity to play their first NFL game, Watching
• 30:08
  Speaker 5: them adjust to the speed of the game, because it
• 30:09
  Speaker 5: always ramps up when you go from college to pro,
• 30:13
  Speaker 5: and in the pros to tell you.
• 30:15
  Speaker 4: It's four different speeds.
• 30:15
  Speaker 5: There's preseason, there's regular season, there's postseasons, then there's Super Bowl.
• 30:19
  Speaker 5: And with each move up you deal with a little
• 30:22
  Speaker 5: more intensity, a little more physicality, and the tempo is different.
• 30:26
  Speaker 5: So these guys would be weezing and breathing hard and
• 30:30
  Speaker 5: sucking eggs the first time that they're out there, but
• 30:32
  Speaker 5: then they'll settle in and play, and the hope is
• 30:35
  Speaker 5: the Jaguars are able to get what they want done.
• 30:38
  Speaker 5: They execute at a high level, but they able to
• 30:40
