  Speaker 1: Jaguars. Did you do Jack, Jack Warris, did you know
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Jaguarris Drive Time? Bryan sextext John Ashley, Jaguars Drive Time
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: starts right now. Hers. Yeah, the tough especially this post
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: one and uh yeah something you know, I gotta fund
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: really to win that one and then put some more
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: points on the board and help of off the top.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: Good morning, Welcome to Jack's Drive Time. I'm Brian, I'm
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: still a little froggy. Then rely on you to to
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: talk more today. Brought to you by Jed Home Loans
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: Jaguars full to four and ten on the season, and
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: that statement of the obvious by Cody Kessler is what
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: we're all talking about this morning. The offense, Yeah, it's awful.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: I mean, you know it's it's record well, it's had
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: a franchise record for you know, you know Lois net
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: yards passing and uh you know that's hard to do
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: considering brand an expansion that I couldn't get out of
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: its own way a lot had expansion. Offensive line, but
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: that's what it is right now. It's the offensive line
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: is in shambles. They have four players who weren't starting
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: Week one, and Brian, as you told me afterwards, It's
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: hard to tell from the press box sometime how injured
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: a guy is, but it appears that a j Can
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: is basically playing on one leg, perhaps costing himself a
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: little money doing so. He's going to be a free
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: agent in the off season, and you would hope for
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: his sake that teams realize that he is playing hurt. Um.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: You know, at this point, I'm not sure what else
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: to say about it. We'll hold on because it's one
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: of our big things. It's a long way because it's us,
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: so it brings us to our Twitter pool of the
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: day and it's uh the Exfinity player of the game. Um,
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: you'll notice that all three are on special teams. Maybe
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: you have someone else vote, And of course we'll have
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: highlights and updates throughout the course of the day. Eating
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: in a happy hour at the end of today. But
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: let's jump right into it, since John is rearing and
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: ready to go. Big thing one is offensive. One offensive
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: touchdown in the last twelve quarters of Jaguars football. Like
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: you said, twenty net passing yards, the fewest Enfranchise history.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: This offense is, no doubt in crisis mode. Coodie Kesler
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: isn't making excuses but said it's tough to be successful
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: when you have as many injuries as the offense does. Obviously,
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: when when when there's injuries and stuff like that, But
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: you know that's no excuse. Um, you know there were
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: there was places there I should have made, you know,
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: when whether it was running the ball or making some throws.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: And um, those guys fought, you know, as hard as
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: they could. And you know, I go to battle with
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: them any day of the week. And UM, just very
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: proud of the offense, you know, for the way they
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: kept fighting no matter who's in there. And um, yeah,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: that just comes down to me, you know, find a
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: way to win and helping those guys out and putting
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: them in the best position. Um, there's not much more
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: to say than that. Yeah, I mean there's not I
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: get that you don't have a voice, but you really
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: have to do a sigh. So it's fine. I mean
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: it's uh when you're watching this and there's a Tennessee
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: in the NFL, because there's a game every week, and
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: because there's such a build up to that game. If
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: you're if you're covering the NBA or baseball, you go
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: through stretches where you just realize that that's what the
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: team is. And three or four games in a row
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: like that, they they all look the same and you
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: realize that's what the team is. Well, this is what
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: this offense is. It's not going to change before the
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: end of the season. I wrote my quick thoughts for
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: a Jaguars dot Com this morning. Um, it's not to
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: get fixed to the off season. There's nothing to fix.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: You're not gonna all of a sudden magically have healthy
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: first string offensive lineman. You've got one receiver who is
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: playing at an NFL level right now, and that's Dee Westbrook.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: You haven't had a tight end since Week three. You've
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: got your backup quarterback, who I think anybody thinks is
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: as good as Blake Boards. But they're not going back
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: to blake Boards. They've made the change. So this is
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: what it is. You might get a couple of touchdowns
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: the rest of the season, but unless you get some
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: special teams help or some defensive help or weirdness, you're
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: probably gonna score fourteen points. But I'm not sure how
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: you're getting the fourteen except if you get five field
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: goals and minus wants him, Yeah, that's about it. But
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: if you give some new stuff for this offense the
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: next two weeks. It's not going to change because you
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: have no players on offense for to change. Well, and
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: what you just said, I hadn't really considered. Where was
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: John T. Moncrief yesterday? Right, except for the penalty. And
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: then Hellen Cole, who I had is my he will
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: he won't? He might? I thought we would see him
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: have at all. Right, that makes it seem so much
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: more desperate than I have even considered. Well, it's uh,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: it's not that they're not trying to win. The coaches
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: the moves they're making, you say, put before net bet
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: On back on kickoffs, playing Dave Williams there. My first
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: thought on that was, well, this is what trying to
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: lose looks like, you know, when you're going for that
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: draft pick um. And that's sort of the cynic. I mean,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: it's not that they're looking for something to happen. They're
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: looking for some answer. They're hoping Leonard breaks one. Well
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: until the yard running the fourth quarter, Leonard didn't give
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: you much reason that he was going to be that either. Right, Well,
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: I'm saying put him back on kickoffs, take advantage of
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: that speed. I did never figured that he would run
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: it out. I figured he was just back there catching it. Well,
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: you would hope you would run it. I's gotta do something.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: He didn't. Though there was one he caught about four
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: yards deep. He could have taken it outright. Probably they
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: kicked away from what um it because it's the NFL,
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: and because we have this job, and because there's a
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: game every Sunday, we're gonna over analyze that. We're gonna
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: fret about it. They were seven points there, seven point
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: favorites yesterday, and we all sort of joked, well, why
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: would they be seven point favorites, how are they going
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: to score seven? Um? And that really came to fruition.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: It's hard to be a seven point favorite when your
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: offense isn't capable of scoring seven points. And I get
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: there's a lot of people who I'm getting emails about
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: blaming people blaming Scott Malama. I don't think they should
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: have made the change. I thought it was an odd
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: change to begin with. But I don't know what else
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: he calls. If if you're if you can't block, if
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: your receivers aren't getting open, and if your quarterback is
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: hesitant to throw the ball when he does have time.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: You can say get creative all you want, but if
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: you can't do the basics, well how are you going
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: to get creative off those basics? And it's a mess.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: We could go on for an hour all week about it,
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: but it's bad. How many quarterbacks that are playing today
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: in the NFL could you imagine overcoming the offensive line
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: situation as it was. I mean they got no push off,
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: which amazing. They ran for two of course sixty eight
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: was Kestler scramblin, but they got no push and the stretches.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: Williams actually broke off and runs in this in the
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: third quarter early fourth they had a couple of stretches
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: where they run blocked. Okay, Williams did a lot on
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: those two shirts. Yeah. So, but how many quarterbacks could
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: overcome I think there are guys who actually been getting
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: rid of the ball quicker Um. The book on him
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: is that he doesn't get the ball out quickly. Uh,
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: but it's it's sort of chicken and egg. It's there.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: There are plays, much like with Blake, he could have
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: thrown it there. But there are too many plays where
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: you don't have the chance, where it's hard to get
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: the confidence to stand there and do it. Um. Again,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: it's just sort of a spiraling cycle, and you didn't
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: know which to blame because everybody's playing bad. It seems
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: like when he first put us our first all defensive lineman,
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: just coming in general direction, tuck the ball and scramble,
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: not even the second look as soon as you saw
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: someone coming in this direction. Yeah and uh and again
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: there were times where he waited too long to throw
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: when he had time to throw. Uh. Blake was doing
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: the same thing at the end, So I don't know
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: is that an offshoot or a result of the offensive
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: line not giving time all year? Um. When it's this
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: in the NFL, because there's so many moving parts, when
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: it's this broken, everybody wants to say, well, it's one thing,
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: it's everything. Um. I saw a stat yesterday the Jaguars
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: lead the league in cap room on the sidelines on
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: injured reserve. And when you think about it, you know,
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: eleven billion dollars or Brandon Linder, it's like eighteen point
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: one or no cap that was cash. Cap room was
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: about uh Norwell, the story of the season's cornell yesterday
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: it um and again, when you talk about things like this,
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: people want a hundred and forty character answers of why
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: and what happened, and if you're wrong on one thing,
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: it's well, it's not this. It didn't completely break down
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: until the offensive line completely broke down, which was sort
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: of the Lender injury felt like the trigger point where
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: that kind of flipped. But you had Josh Wells, Corey
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: Grant in Austin Sperian Jenkins all got hurt against the Chiefs.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: Before that, you were the ninth rated offense in the NFL.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: Or you came out of that game and I rated
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: in the NFL with a couple of thirty one point
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: games and a couple of stinkers. It felt a lot
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: like last year's offense, where it wasn't consistent enough. It
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: was going to have days where it produced. Since then,
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: as the injuries have piled up, it wasn't completely inept
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: for five, six seven games there and now since the
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: Lender tipping point, you get more and more injured. Now
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: you're getting more and more it's it's unovercomable, even though
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: it's not a word. But no one wants to use
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: that as an excuse in the locker room, because of
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: course it is an excuse but that's the true stories
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: that these injuries have plagued this offense, and they know it,
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: but no one wants to say it. It's not really excuse,
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: it's a reality, right. But when it goes this, when
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: it goes this bad, when it goes as bad, he
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: can't even talk um when it goes bad. You that's
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: been said so much that you look for new things
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: to say so you get away from it. But that's
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: still the core of the problem, the injuries. However you
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: built it, however you don't like how they went about it,
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: it would not be to this degree without an un
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: usual degree of injuries. And I don't think I'm alone
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: in this if and it's ifs, but that's the game
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: we're left to play. If Rashod Green doesn't fumble in Indie,
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: and if you get any points in the first half
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: except field goals against Pittsburgh, and if you find a
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: way to keep your best player from getting ejected in Buffalo,
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: then yesterday we're talking about being on the fringes. I mean,
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: you had the six and seven Redskins come out and
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: here yesterday, and they were on the fringes, and they
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: were on the fringes and they played like it, by
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: the way, on that final series, and you're there and
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: the whole season doesn't seem like as big a disaster
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: as it does right now. This is what disaster feels like,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: and this is what it feels like when you get
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: to the end. At one point, you looked out there
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: yesterday and you had A. J. Camps on the field,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: and D. D. Westbrook was on the field, and and
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: Moncrief was on the field, and really those were the
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: only guys that you had any thought in week one
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: that you might even be watching them point well, and
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: you thought that can was was the week spot on
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: your offensive line starting the season, and Westbrook was your
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: third receiver at best, and Moncrief was your two. So
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: it wasn't even a star player. It wasn't even a
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: guy that we were talking about is the fourth Yeah,
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: which credit to him. He's he's proven himself way out
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: of that and has been the only feel good story
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: on offense. But A Marquis Moncrief and Keeling Cole were
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: your three. Yeah, all right, well let's move it along,
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: all right. Big thing too, is special special teams that
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: should be the storyline of the game, not this inept offense.
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: But we're gonna make it the storyline at this point.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: All the points that the Jaguars scored our credit to
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: special teams. Yesterday. Mc craze block punt set up the
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: second quarter field goal. Obviously, Logan cook sixty three yard
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: punt pinned them and set up the short punt for
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: then d D. Westbrook to return it for the touchdown.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: They were the highlight of the game. You know, um,
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: I can remember when Cook stepped back for that punt,
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: and all season long we have been waiting for that
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: big field flipping moment because we saw him in training
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: camp and in the preseason really kicked the ball. Well,
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: that was it right there. What you thought was, well,
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: here you go, it's a three three ball game at
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: the end of the half and the Jaguars are going
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: to get a shank punt off the side of his foot.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: It's going to give the redskin to the ball somewhere
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: near midfield. They'll get a field goal and have a
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: six three lead. Instead, you saw what happened right there,
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: great kick, field flipping kick and um and that of
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: course allowed Doug Marone to use his time outs and
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: set up the punt return. But that was one of
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: the best moments of the ball game, which says a
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: lot about it that the rookie punter came through and
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: shows you what he can do. But Special Teams should
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: have been the story, and it was my story into then.
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: If you guys want to read it, it's on my computer.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: Special Teams. It's awesome. It's really done. And the McCray
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: blocked punt, which at the time felt like that was
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: gonna be the big player of the game. Um, we
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: thought last week or I did, that you were going
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: to need with the way this offense is playing, you
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: knew they were going to need this spite the points
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: spread and despite people thinking that they we're gonna were
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: so bad. You figured they were gonna need big plays
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: away from offense. Well they got three of them, so
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: it it does show you this offense is inept enough.
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: Two ruin what was clearly the most impactful game of
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: the season prospecially. You know what struck me yesterday was normally,
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: at this time of the season, on a team like
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: this that's very injured, a lot of guys who are
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: core Special Teams players are playing a bigger role on
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: offense or defense, which thins out special teams or tires
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: them out because guys are playing more and then having
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: to go right turn around and be on kickoff coverage
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: or punt team or whatever. And to have the special
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: teams playing well with the Nick de Luca who's now starting,
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: for instance, or Ronnie Harrison who's starting on defense. This
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: is a lot about what Jodic Mills has been able
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: to do with these guys, to have them in a
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: position to make plays despite the fact that they probably
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: shouldn't be right and still motivating them. Yeah, it should
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: have been a special day and it wasn't. All right,
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: all right, big thing three is what matters. So it
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: was a mixed locker room yesterday in post games. Some
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: guys obviously we're frustrated and upset about the loss, and
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: some guys seem to be joking and more positive about
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: the loss. Class Campbell put it into perspective for us,
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: it's one of those here's where things that go well
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: for you. But at the end of the day, you know,
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: we still have a lot of talent and we have
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: about to play for and if we can get this
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: thing going and get some men will going the next year.
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: I believe what the people we have here coaches have included,
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: you know, on the players. You know we can we
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: can still be successful. You are going forward an official alright,
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: So I think maybe you and I miscommunicating on this,
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: because what matters in terms of the topic for this
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: is which players yesterday? What what young players did you
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: see out there on the field, Um, that you can
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: hang your hat on, right, So Logan Cook is obviously one.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: Uh T. D Westbrook is probably the best example of
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: a guy who we talked about in the preseason, who
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: you know, maybe your three, and now all of a
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: sudden he's got more than fifty catches, scoring a couple
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: of different ways, contributing on the jet sweep for the
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: twenty yard. So look at the roster from yesterday and
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: tell me which players stand out? Is Okay, we've got that,
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: and we've got that from yesterday. I think that's really
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: the case to be made about we talked about with
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: the offense from yesterday, D whispers the only one. Um. Now,
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: that doesn't mean there's nobody on your team. You've got
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: Cam Robinson, Andrew Norwell, Brandon Lender, guys who aren't in
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: the lineup. But what what happened yesterday that you can
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: take for I mean, I just don't sit there and say,
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: well d westpers the only player and people say, well,
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: they've got to replace ten offensive players. It's not like
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: there's a lot of games. No, no, I totally get that. Um.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: But in terms of hanging your hat, Jalen, you know
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: the three cornerbacks, Uh, I think you're good. Oh they
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: really you very much out of that game. Uh so,
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: Logan Cook, out of out of that game specifically, the
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: defense played fine. The defense I've played as it's played
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: for the last couple of months, which is they played
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: fine and until the fourth quarter and then there's a
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: player two here or there, because the game should already
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: be gotten away that it doesn't work. So answer to
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: your question, I would say, and Gotway had a play
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: that wasn't a sack that maybe could have been so
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: in Gockway, Logan Cook. The secondary, Yeah, secondary gonna get
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: many opportunities because of the passing. But when Ronnie Harrison
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: went down with that injury, I thought to myself, oh,
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: this is the problem. If he's injured, and that shows
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: what the impact he's made in the past few weeks.
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: All right, that'll wrap it up for big things. Highlights
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: are next. We're back after this. Only in Jacksonville can
• 18:01

  Speaker 1: Brought to you by the Florida Department of Highway Safety
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: and Motor Vehicles and the Florida Highway Patrol. Welcome back
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: to Jags Drivetime Monday Morning, presented by Jet Homelands. We
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: have some highlights for you, six of them, a lot
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: of them special scenes which shows deep dig deep but
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: special teams obviously was key in this game. So let's
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: go to the first drive of the game. Cody Kesterer
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: was sacked six times yesterday. He was hurting in the
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: locker room post game, and he'll be hurting today down
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: the floor. You got gern pain that it was a fumble,
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: that it was a redskin recovery. You take it to them.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: First drive of the game just gets snailed ball, loose
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: defense right back out in the field. Oh um, I
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: did get an odd email, uh about how one of
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: the readers was saying that he's going to reevaluate. Hey,
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: it feels about the NFL because if a quarterback like
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: Josh Johnson can beat the Jaguars, then maybe there's a
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: lot of guys can come out who can come in
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: off the streets and win in the NFL. Josh Johnson
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: didn't be the jag no at all if you're looking
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: at it like that. He had a hundred yards passing.
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: He played okay in spots, so I mean he didn't
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: beat the Redskins, but he didn't beat the Jaguars either.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: Would beat the Jaguars was that defensive front of the Redskins, which,
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: by the way, we knew was going to be great.
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: Two first round picks the last two years, Alan who
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: had two sacks John Payney covered that fumble. Ryan Carrigan
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: was the first round pick in two thousand and ten
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: and had two stacks, probably should have had more. Now,
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: the defensive front changed the temple. I said multiple times
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: last week the the Jaguars. It was not the Jaguars
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: defense playing against the Redskins defense. The problem was the
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: Redskins defense was gonna be playing against the Jaguars offense,
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: which made the Jaguars offense had to score at some
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: point to get away from what was also a deficient
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: Redskins offense. Well, the Jaguars offense was worse, so that's
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: why they couldn't get away from So it wasn't the
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: Jaguars defense that all of a sudden had this awful game.
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: They gave up one drive over forty yards. It was
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: it was fine. You can't function offense, you know, you'd
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: like two two yards total of it's fine. I mean
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: it was fine when you can't score on offense, only
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: as two defense for some last all right, let's go
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: to the end of the second quarter. Local Cook the
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: best game of the season for him. He flips the
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: field here and changes the momentum of the game. Right now,
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: they just can't generate an explosive plays Logan cookless star
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: work boy gets off the rocket baby any facts boy,
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: and Quentin Meeks was so close to pulling that one
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: into I mean, that would have been a huge play. Yeah,
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: they wound up getting the touchdown anyway, from so it
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: probably didn't have a game flipping feel. Uh. That punt
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: was the equivalent of the Jets punt against the Jaguars
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: last year. Not in terms of timing of the game.
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: The Jets kid, I think, kicked it in overtime and
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: you know, so that won the game for him. But
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: it was that same kind of thing. And they've as
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: you said the top of the show, Brian. They've been
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: wanting that. That's why he went on got Logan because
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: Josh Norman, Josh Norman, um Brad Nortman uh couldn't do
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: to have he here, so they wanted that. I've had
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: some people email me that Logan Cooke was having a
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: historically bad rookie. See. I didn't think he was that bad.
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: He just hadn't come up big in big spots. Yesterday
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: finally did. It's just something you can hang your hat off. Absolutely. Yeah,
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: all right, let's go to the second quarter again. D
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: d Westbrook we talked about in August during training camp
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: who's gonna win that kick return job? And it's obvious
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: why he is the guy right now there was some
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: really good block and it's the returnable punt. It was indeed, well,
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: let's see what this return on Dudy Westbrook does. You're
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: called it, Ritchie. He's gotten ontoage with a blocker head
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: and green. He gets a block time field from another
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: good fun about makes Jackson see and you just went
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: right to it, Ashley. We watched this competition. We identified
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: the punt return competition in training camp as being one
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: of the more interesting ones because you at Jadon Mickens,
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: who obviously returned one last year against the Redskins for
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: a touchdown. I'm not Redskins Bengals for a touchdown. Um.
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: And this kid was the most dynamic of Jadon Mickens,
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: Rashad green Uh and himself. I mean he that trio,
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: he was the most explosive. And you finally saw it.
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: Although the miracle as the Taban pulled up at the
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: top of the float, I didn't see that. Yeah, I
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: think it was Taban. But at the very beginning, at
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: that play, a Jaguars blocker had a chance for a
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: block in the back right here. Every other play this
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: season right there, he takes him out. Well and you
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: come back, remember good for good for him not getting
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: the block in the back, because it's it's an easy
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: penalty to get. And I'm surprised he didn't just block.
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: And by the way, from from that what matters segment
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: at the end, Taban Bran played pretty well yesterday too,
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: not just there obviously, but you look at that and
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: you see a guy who pulled up right Remember against
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: the Colts when he charged the center on the field
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: goal attempt, he did not use his head, lost his mind, clearly,
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: he's making strides, lose his mind every now you get
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: him right now, All right, let's go fourth quarter. Josh
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: Johnson two weeks ago was not playing football. Finish the
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: game forty nine yards rushing, hundred and fifty one yards
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: passing this fourth quarter touchdown. He's in the league now,
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: Jobson scrinkle touchdown, six yard touchdown. UM, nice throw, great play.
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: As it was pointed out to me when I got
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: home by my kid yesterday, is you know that drive
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: that essentially was the game winning drive for it kind
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: of wasn't game winning, but put them in a position
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: to have a game winning drive. Was made possible when
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: to Shawn Gibson deflected the pass and they got the
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: crazy bounce. It is the way that's and but the
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: other side of that is last year the offense was
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: functioning well enough were that crazy bounce, but it wouldn't
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: have mattered. It was the end of the game. It
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: got the Skins the thirteen. Last year, that would have
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: been a thirty one a thirteen game at that point
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: at the end of the season when they were blowing
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: out the Texans and the Colts, and you know, um,
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: when you haven't played well enough offensively. Breaks like that
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: happen when you're only in the teens against the team.
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: Breaks like that I get the other team over the
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: top and getting back into it. It shouldn't have been
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: that close. A lot of games shouldn't have been that close, alright.
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: Crucial mistake for Cody Kessler in the fourth quarter ended
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: up potential game winning drive and set up the Redskins
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: game winning driveler and accepted those skins and that was
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: the ball game. There was no way they weren't go
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: go down and get um. Credit Kessler. There was pressure
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: coming right up the middle. He took a big hit
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: on that play and he stood there and threw the ball.
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: It's sailed on him. There were a couple of others
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: that sailed on him. Um. He may not have been
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: able to step through fully and drive the ball where
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: he wanted it to go. And that was the story
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: of the game as well, isn't it. Um? You know?
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: I mean, he may not be the guy, doesn't appear
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: to be the guy, um, but he didn't have any time,
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: no protection. Thirteen sacks in three games, and again, usually
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: when there's a big sack number like that over a
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: course of time, it gets blamed on the offensive line.
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: It's usually everything. It's usually the quarterback holding the ball.
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: At times, it's as quarterback running into things. It's a
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: it's usually a group effort when there's a high sack
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: number like that, and that's probably the case this time.
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: All right, all right, let's go to our final highlight. Defense,
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: of course, had a good game, but could not stop
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: the Redskins on this final drive. No wind, thirty stick
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: charge right down the middle. That's it, that's gonna win.
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: Skins come from behind, and they're seven and seven. And
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: I don't know what the eagles victory last night in
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: Los Angeles meant for them. I know that the loss
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: in Indianapolis by the Cowboys has them still very much
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: alive in this thing. Yeah, they're still launch Ayes. They
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: need the Vikings to lose. They need to beat the Eagles.
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: You know, they didn't beat a very good Jaguars team,
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: and they've got gonna do it right. They got Josh
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: Johnson a quarterback, but they needed that game to stay
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: in it. And uh, which goes back to the old axiom.
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: As I was walking off the field esterday, we talked
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: about a teams that need to win in December generally
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: beat teams that don't. Ye. It's uh, it's rare when
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: they don't. All right, we need to break in. We

  Speaker 1: Next Sunday in Houston, the final Sunday of the season.
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: Uh tamper ozone snapshot. This is where you grill ozone.
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: Cue the music, the zone. I don't seem to like
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: it as much this morning. I thought we were just
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: going to let that play out the whole side. This
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: show is let it ride baby. All right? All right,
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: let's go to John from Ponta Vedra Beach. Has Cody
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: Kessler been given a sufficient opportunity to show he is
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: not the answer at quarterback? Yeah? I think so, but
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: I don't think I get that. There were fans who
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: I always want to see the backup quarterback, so they
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: want to see that, and they think, maybe this kid
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: that we haven't seen can be the next Curt Warner,
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: maybe he can be the next guy. But I never
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: got the impression, Brian, that that was how the organization
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: was thinking when they put in Cody Kessler. It was
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: Blake Bortles in those last couple of games before you
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: got benched, was really rough, wasn't doing anything. I never
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: got the feeling that there was a thought of, Okay,
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: now we're going to Cody and we're going to find
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: out if he's the guy. It was more we got
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: nothing else. We got to see if this gives us something.
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: He's a less expensive Chad Henny. He was smart guy,
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: had a good relationship with Bortles. They brought him in
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: to be part of the quarterback room and be a
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: solid guy. But at the stage I did it, you
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: weren't thinking he was the answer, because if that's the answer,
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: you don't want to have the question. Alright. That John
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: from Jacksonville on A John's this morning. It really feels
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: like the front office has said play inferior players and
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: if we lose, that's okay. I've never seen a team
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: do that for the last six games of the season.
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: I get I get questions every year during bad seasons. Um,
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: let's just play X and see what he's got. That's
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: what this is. You have to do that, right. They
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: don't everyone else. Right. You want to see And I'm
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: not saying that's why they're doing this in terms of
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: some of the guys they're playing, they're trying to find
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: something to give them a spark somewhere. They're hoping something works.
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: But for fans who want to see young guys, they
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: wanted to see CODYE. Kessler. You want to see Uh.
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: You know, if if I Chart was playing, for example,
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: he would probably makeing rookie mistakes. Um. That's what it
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: is when you're playing guys at the end of the season,
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: to see what they are. Uh, sometimes you're gonna see
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: that they're still young players trying to develop. Um. Maybe
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: I read that question wrong. Um, but I thought the
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: premise of his question was that the Jaguars were putting
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: guys out there instead of better players. They don't have
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: righter players. They're on injured reserve, right, there's no one
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: else to go to look at the defense. They are healthy.
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: Was Marcel Darius benched in favor of don't know Elienku
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: that would be That would be saying, hey, inferior player
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: in in place of Marcel Darius. That wasn't the case.
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: The only reason you would go to inferior player if
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: you were a team, would be if he were young.
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: I say they had put Quentin Meeks in place of
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: a J. Boyett, a young guy to see it, which
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: I think they have done it, you know, with with
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: Taven Brian and and smooth they've done that a little bit. Um.
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: I suppose you could make the case that yesterday not
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: playing for the third quarter in place of David Williams
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: was them saying inferior player in the bowl game. Let's
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: see what happened. But I don't know that they necessarily
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: think that he's inferior right now? Yeah, alright, what else
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: you got? Let's go to Alan from Ohio for the
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: last zone, different quarterbacks, same results. Can't we skip the
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: next game? I am so tired of watching such poor offense.
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: Is unreal? Oh no, I just realized we have two
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: more games of this. Oh the bells, the bells, bills.
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: I don't have to say this. I just like the end.
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: I don't get it my message. It is a cultural
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: reference that I have missed pop. I'm not sure. I
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: think maybe he was just freelancing a little bit. Yeah,
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: he was just like jazz. But it's yes, And there's
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: nothing more to say about the offense. There's nothing. It
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: is unreal is when I read that, I thought, he's right,
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: that's a great description. It's unreal to watch this offense
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: and then turn on the TV and watch well, I mean,
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: I understand what's going to happen if if if you
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: got an offense of backups and some players who perhaps
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: shouldn't be in the league, and if you wondered what
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: that would look like, you're getting a chance to see it.
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: The bells, the bells, the best. Did anybody wonder? Did
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: anybody wonder? What did it look like? If you don't
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: want anymore, all right, how about a couple of NFL
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: headlines for you, um, right out of the gate? Nick
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: Foles does it again last night? Seventy one yards. You
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: realize this, the Eagles were a seven and a half
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: point underdog going out there without Carson um. Sorry with
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: Carson Wentz. Um. They became a thirteen and a half
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: point underdog when Carson Wentz was ruled out and Nick
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: Foles goes in and it's the second largest upset of
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: two thousand and eighteen. Foals is going to get some
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: plenty this year. Well, the beer story, or as big
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: a story is, the Rams are coming back to Earth
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: and there does appear to be a formula to beat
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: them and hold them down. Uh, they need to figure
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: that out. They're now very a very good chance they
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: have to go through New Orleans. Uh. They when you
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: get the Super Bowl and and the Bears the only
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: game ahead of the Bears, so they might be looking
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: at playing in the first weekend the playoffs, which nobody
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: thought would happen. That's the most immediate storyline. But the
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: other storyline is is that Foals is going to hit
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: unrestricted free agency and it's going to be someone you
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: We're going to be talking about because people are gonna
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: send you ozone questions. Oh no doubt U Up. Next,
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys were shut out for the first time since
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: that guy was the quarterback? Can you name him? Um? Oh,
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: I should be able to do it. I can Locks.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: Can you name him? Yell at Yes, you're right, Quincy corner. Yeah,
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: two thousand three. Um, to put it into perspective, Jason Witten,
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: who just retired, was a rookie that year. Dad didn't
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: even know it. They were shut out by Indie in
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: Indy yesterday. Uh. Not that they didn't have chances. By
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: the way it was spent. At two forty three games,
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: they had a block field goal. See if this sounds
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: a little bit like the Colts when they were shut
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: out down here. Uh, they had fourth and one at
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: the Colts or three yard line. Uh, and they didn't
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: get in. So in this day and age, just shutout
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: usually comes with stuff like that. That's it. They had
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: chances to not be shut out. Uh. And then finally
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: the kicking situation in Pittsburgh, Um, young man missed the
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: kick in the third quarter from thirty two yards. You
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: remember famously he missed two in their loss to the Raiders.
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: They brought Sean Sweezuman to coach him this week. Uh,
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: and he missed the third quarter, but he kicked the
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: forty eight yard when the game is on the line.
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: So good for him, Good for him, little upbeat, positive headline.
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: There at the end. Good for the steerers, you know,
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: good for the rates or you remember on our poll
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: last week they were the number one team that everyone
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: wanted to see missed the playoffs and they got a
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: big win yesterday, big win yesterday. All right, we'll take

  Speaker 1: All right, Welcome back to Bags Drive Time, brought to
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: you by Jet Home Loans Brian, Ashley, John and Jeff
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: Are you good good? I'm still in shocked from what
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: in particular, Well, uh, twenty yards passing. Yeah, that was
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: that was kind of rough. That was rough. That was
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: real rough. As a matter of fact, I've never seen
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: a game like that never, you know, John said it earlier. Um,
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: there's really only one receiver. I mean donte Moncrief was
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: nowhere to be found healing Cole. Oh, he was nowhere
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: to be found in the week before in Tennessee either.
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: I mean, the ball went in his direction a couple
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: of times, and I thought just was poor, poor, poor
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: performance that he had in Tennessee. And so you look
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: at the targets and I think there was a limited
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: number of target he had like two targets Donte Montcreef.
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: I think they through total four to wide receivers, three
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: to Westbrook and went to Montcrief. Yeah. Yeah, so there
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: wasn't a whole lot now And and I know you
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: probably haven't broken down the film yet, Jeff, but with
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: the sacks and I heard you on the broadcast yesterday
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: Cody Kessler's MMO didn't get the ball out quickly. Uh,
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: And in its prone to sacks? Is it both? Is
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: is it the line? Is it Cody? Is it just broken?
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: Break that down? It's probably uh. And I'll give you
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: a more accurate number here a little bit, but about
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: fifty Uh, this one that we're looking at here, which
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: was the first one of the ball game. If you're
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: Cody Kessler and you escape the pocket, you've changed the
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: angles for every offensive linement that there is, and so
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: you are responsible for now for the ball and for
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: your own so being in and so you've got to
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: be aware that a guy is going to be coming
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: from the backside and probably gonna be going after the ball.
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: He didn't have the awareness there, so that on him
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: after playing that position you gotta know that. You have
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: to know that. I mean, that's that's kind of understood.
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: And and this one right here that's on the offensive line,
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: that's Patrick Omama. So when we're seeing different different places
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: here if i'd say fifty fifty and but there's a
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: there's a there's a disturbing number with Cody Kessler. And
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: I think the numbers now are seventeen times that he's
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: been sacked, and I want to say that it's a
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: hundred fourteen attempts for including the Texans game when he
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: played second half. I'm counting everything because I mean that counts.
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: That's not a good number. Seventeen sacks and he's got
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: a hundred fourteen passing attempts. I don't think there's been
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: a passer in NFL history that has that kind of
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: sack ratio. Times he's taken off in rhyme that that
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: doesn't count in that equation. So, I mean, that's that's unbelievable.
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: So your answer to the question, and from ozone snapshot
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: is he's had a sufficient opportunity to prove that he's
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: not the starting place. We knew that from the get go.
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: I mean the first time I ever saw him in
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: mini camp, I was like, oh my gosh, they better
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: start looking for another guy. But he got better and
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: did a really good job in training camp of improving
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: protecting the football. Like, okay, he can probably be adequate.
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: My only issue was with him is this the sack
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: because he took sacks at a high rate, and and
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: even if even if you looked at his numbers when
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: he was with Cleveland, it was the same deal. And
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: so you're like, okay, well maybe that was a rookie
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: thing because that's when he started. Can you grow out
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: of that? His experience helped that. Yes, experience does help that,
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: but that is an issue with Cody Kestor, and that
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: has not changed even though it's where a couple of
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: years removed from those rookie stars. It almost feels like
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: we're wasting time even talking about the quarterback because we yes,
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: we all know that that's got to be addressed with
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: new players. Yeah, oh yeah. And I think people say, well,
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: what gives you the best chance to win? Well, you
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: wanted to, yeah, but no one likes to hear it.
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: But it's the truth. I don't think you want to.
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: I don't think you want to go back to that
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: because you just you just don't go back to there's
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: no answer at this point now, and you've got two
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: more games of watching no answer, right, how much of
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: not going back to that is you know you're not
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: going forward with it? Of course I think you know
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: you're not going forward with Kessler. So what difference does
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: it make? How about how much of it's the other
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: side of it? And we talked about this with with
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: Blake last year. You don't want to get injured because
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: you don't want to be on the hook. Well, you're anyway.
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: You're on the hook anyway for what six and a
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: half million I think is what the guarantee is not
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: your option kind of deals. So um, but if he's injured,
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: tougher for another team to sign him to get it,
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: and that would take away you do get some So
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: you figured then that that figures into the equipment. I
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: think maybe maybe, But I think the most important thing
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: though is that, look, you moved on, but that that
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: ship is sailed to use the term, uh, and you
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: don't go back to it. And to be personally perfectly honest,
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: you don't want to go back to him. We're talking
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: about draft position now. I mean that's the reality. The
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: best chance to win is and no one likes you.
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: He's losing at this point, right, because you don't want
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: to have to fall down in the draft order, assuming
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: that the quarterback you like is there, and have to
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: spend more capital to go up to gain him if
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: you need, be right, or when the Bears famously traded
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: when they traded second round pick to go up one spot.
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: Of course that looks like it paid off for them
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: with Drew Bisky. Sure it does look and and and
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: it's it's the talk that no coach, no player. Fans
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: they don't want to hear that talk, I think, But
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: there's a I think there's a fan base. I think
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: I think the fans are a little bit more educated
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: nowadays where they understand that, whereas you know, maybe years
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: ago they didn't understand that. But after after watching history
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: in the National Football League, the percentage of show and
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: the metrics show that do you have to be in
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: the top of the draft. When I say the top
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: of the draft, you have to be in the top
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: ten to have an opportunity even to get to be
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: a in the position and draft a top guy. So
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: I think fans are more educated now, and that's the reality,
• 47:12
  Speaker 1: and you you win for losing. I hate to say that,
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: but and I would have never have talked about this
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: years ago, but I mean, that's the reality. And the
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: National Football League, you gotta have a guy, and until
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: you get a guy, you're constantly going to be looking
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: for a guy while you look at what they've done.
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: And we all saw Cleveland last year and we knew
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: that they had some talent, but they went and grabbed
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield at the top of the draft, and look
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: at what he's done and most of the in the
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: best part about about him, they didn't have to give
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: up any draft capital to get right there. And so
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: in a perfect world, you stay right where you are
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: and then you draft right where you are, and then
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: you get a quarterback. Now, the flip side to the
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: the losing is winning is that because when you look
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: at the teams around the Jaguars this year in the draft,
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: there's really only one other team that looks like it
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: might be quarterback driven, and that is the Raiders. The
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: night in that top bunch, you're still gonna have to
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: trade up at some point because you're gonna fear somebody
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: trading up that's it someone jumping over the top of you.
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: But even or somebody's gonna sell you on. Look, you know,
• 48:13
  Speaker 1: I got a guy, I got this and calling me
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: here and you know, and you can just said you
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: can't take a chance losing a game, so a win,
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: if it drops you down to like nine, it's a
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: lot harder to get up into that top three. But
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: where they are right now is they're sitting in the
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: fourth or fifth with two games, which is in that
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: spot with only the Raiders in front of them that
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: looked like they could take a quarterback overall first. Now
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: you need to stay somewhere in at four or five
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: if you if you want to stay where you're at,
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: possibly to get a guy or to even move up
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: a little bit to get a guy beyond quarterback and
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: hopefully there's a guy, yeah, you know, because history shows
• 48:50
  Speaker 1: there's not always a guy. And the danger they face
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: is you do feel like, even if there's not a guy,
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: they're gonna take somebody and hope he's a guy because
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: you have do it this guy and that's always the danger.
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: But that's the that's the nature of the NFL. Right Well,
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: we don't know what you see it although I remember
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: when Drubisky came out there were a lot of people
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: that were not sold on him. In fact, last year
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: people were not sold on him, and then they got
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: the right coach, and look at what he's been able
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: to do. There's still people who are quite sure well,
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: and the defense certainly drives the boat there. He looks
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: like he's tremendous performance by the Bears defense. But he
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: made a big throw last night that I watched and
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: I thought, Wow, the kids really come a long way.
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: And of course he's got an offensive mind from the
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: Andy Reid Tree. So as much as the quarterback is important,
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: who's the guy who's going to be developing him? Man,
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: that's that's that's a question here, because you don't have
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: an offensive coordinator. But I still believe if you've got
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: Peyton Manning, you can have John Osher coaching him, and
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: Peyton man is gonna be Peyton Manning a little know.
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: In fact, I did coach him for three coach. I
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: believe there's a little bit of that when it comes
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: to quarterbacks and that I but I do, but I
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: believe this. I believe coaching matters, but I also believe
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: that the player is more important than the coaching, in
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: my opinion, Beyond the quarterback, where else an offense? I
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: mean his receiver. The next place that you go is
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: a just weapons, just weapons, weapons, whether it be tight
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: end receiver, whether it be some type of quincy a
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: noon wall hybrid tight end slash wide receiver, running back
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: that's a third down back that is Darren sprowls ish
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: and its prime just weapons. I had a question last week,
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: Jeff and somebody said, would they benefit more from a
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: tight end or a wide receiver? I said, there and
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: stare the question with two or three minutes because I
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: didn't know the answer. I mean it, they so desperately
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: need both. I kind of went with wide receiver because
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: in this day and age, you need it. But if
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: they had an elite tight end, how much would that help?
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: I mean, you know, or even a functional tight end.
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: Dallas god or philadelf Eagles was second round pick. You'll
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: always be a little bitter love that guy, John, You
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: know that I liked him when the Jaguars were on
• 51:09
  Speaker 1: the clock. I'm like, draft the tight end. He's he's
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: a good blocker, he's a great receiver, he's got legitimate
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: deep speed and and now he's in Philadelphia with the
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: tight end kind of centric offense, and he's and he's solid.
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: He's really good. I mean, and if and if he
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: was the man, if he was zach Ertz and for
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: another team, I mean, he would be tremendous. I have
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: this vision of Jeff watching both the Eagles with just
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: a little tear, and he does a great job blocking
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: to We were talking about things you could take away
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: from yesterday's game, and it's all players, right, and who
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: you can build around. Obviously, Ded Westbrook has evolved into
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: more than just the fourth run wide receiver. He's really good.
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: We thought he was gonna be. First of all, I
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: think I appreciate him because the week before Tennessee he
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: got whacked three times. He got whacked, and he's tough
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: as nails. So I give him a lot of respect
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: because those are the type of players that you want
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: to have on your football team, that are tough, that
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: are willing to go across the middle and take a
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: hit sometimes. And I don't want him to take too
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: many hits. But and he's explosive. The part return was awesome.
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: I mean, did he have great blocking on it? Did
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: anybody see great blocking? Well, what we saw was David
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: Brian pull off of what would have been a block
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: on the back that was bulldoze bulldozer. It was hard
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: to see on the angle we had. Yeah, he actually
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: did a really good job pulling off it. Still kind
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: of nudge him a little bit defensively. We called Tavian
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: Brian's name a bunch yesterday. Uh yeah, he did. Okay,
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: the one play that he made it was a sack,
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: was a good play. He's still got to show more
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: instinctual performance. I think it's a good term because he
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: kicks the crap out of people as far as the
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: guards or tackles that he goes against, because he's just
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: he is a supreme uh physical strong human being. But now, okay,
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: now that you've kicked this, but that's not the end game.
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: The end game is make a tackle, make a sack,
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: disrupt the play instead of kicking that guy's butt. And
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: so he needs to take the next step. Can he
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: make make the next step? I think so? I hope.
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: So first round pick. Is he a three technique because
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: here's my opinion on this, because I hear people say
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: that all the time. Well, he's you know, he's more
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: of a three technique than he is a defensive and
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: left playing a five and a three. What's the difference.
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: It's the same thing. It's an outside shade of offensive lineman.
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: If you can play a five and you can play three.
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: If you can play three, you can play five, especially
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: when you're six ft three six ft four pounds. Now,
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: if you're a defensive end two d fifty five pounds,
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: playing a five and playing the three is a little
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: different because you got a little bit more leeway. And
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: that doesn't get his noisy, so to speak. And there
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: as a three technical way to put it. And uh so,
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: David Bryan should be able to play a five or three.
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. The one thing though, that I'm starting
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: to see with him that I like is that I'm
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: starting to see the get off. And that's what I
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: think he did very well at Florida was that he
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: was off the ball quick. As soon as that ball
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: moved just a little bit, he was up the field.
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: And he's a penetrator and that's how he can be
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: more disruptive, and he does that more. He has he
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: has better get off as a three technique. I don't
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: know why it should be the same as a five.
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: That's progress for him because early in the season you
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: weren't sure about that part. No. I thought he was
• 54:36
  Speaker 1: taking up space certainly in the season, and now he's
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: actually shown up. So that's good. He's getting better and
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: he's about it. But Logan Cook finally saw a field
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: flipping play for bomb kick bomb kick like that, Uh,
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: that's the one you. That's the one you when you
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: when you go, okay, we need one and you get
• 54:52
  Speaker 1: one fantastic punt. And I think there's there's hope for
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: him in the future because he's got some flexibility. Yesterday
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: we saw him handle the kickoff duties obviously, and that
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: that helped, and he did a good job with that
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: his uh punts and the one that he did out
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: of the ends on which I was always kind of
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: concerned about with him, is that he takes a lot
• 55:13
  Speaker 1: of steps when he's getting ready to punt. That one
• 55:16
  Speaker 1: was a one step one step for was it sixty
• 55:18
  Speaker 1: three sixty three yards? I mean wow, so uh that
• 55:23
  Speaker 1: was pretty good. Um uh. The other young guys in
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: the game, I thought Wilson did pretty good or is
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: that Uh, yeah, Wilson I thought did a good job
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: until he got hurt and I like him. Yeah, I
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: like him. I thought he was pretty strong telling Smith
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: again kind of disappointed me in that game a little bit.
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: That's two weeks in a row that. Uh, I don't
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: know what's going on with him. It's not the physical
• 55:46
  Speaker 1: element with Telln is not quite as good this year.
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: Maybe maybe that's it. Maybe that's it because you go
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: back to the Philadelphia Eagles game in London and you
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: could see that he was not wanting to get involved
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: with some plays because I mean, you could tell that
• 56:00
  Speaker 1: it was obvious in that game and it's not as
• 56:03
  Speaker 1: obvious now, or it's not obvious at all. But is
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: that still a factor and how he's playing because he's not.
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: He's not putting his head and playing the game downhill
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: like Telvin com play and being really aggressive with avoiding blocks,
• 56:17
  Speaker 1: but doing it in a in a physical, on the
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: edge kind of way, whereas now he's kind of running
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: around it and not being right on the edge of
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: a player. All right, all um, you joined us next
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: Monday because next Tuesday's Christmas Day. Yeah, yeah, I can't wait.
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: Holidays are awesome. Yeah, we we we actually had it.
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: We had a fun moment in the game yesterday, and uh,
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: the Redskins have a tight end named Sprinkle, and so
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: leave it to Basel going, I like sprinkle, and I said, yeah,
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: especially during the holidays. I really like sprinkles on cookies.
• 56:57
  Speaker 1: And he goes, I like sprinkles on donuts. It's like
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: the perfect holiday name. The tight end for the Redskin Sprinkles.
• 57:05
  Speaker 1: Your name, Tony Sprinkles. That's a good nickname for him, Sprinkles,
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: And it begins Jeff. Thanks to much, Jeff, Thanks Ashlyn
