0:05
Speaker 1: It is Tuesday, September one. This is Jaguars Happy Hours. Hey,
0:13
Speaker 1: now a guy who's tasting batches and still wearing that
0:17
Speaker 1: same old hack j Peace, welcome in. It is Jaguars
0:25
Speaker 1: Happy Hour on a Tuesday afternoon, recapping the Jaguars lost
0:29
Speaker 1: to the Denver Broncos for one final time. Then we're
0:32
Speaker 1: gonna put the thing to bed and move on to
0:34
Speaker 1: week three. That's how it works in the NFL. It's
0:37
Speaker 1: onto the next twenty four hour rule until the day
0:40
Speaker 1: and well, you know, after this, so maybe thirty six.
0:43
Speaker 1: I was told there would be no math this week,
0:45
Speaker 1: last week today rule. Here's what's coming up on the
0:51
Speaker 1: show today and a busy program that was Jaguars analyst
0:55
Speaker 1: Jeff Lockaman. We'll take our final look at the loss
0:58
Speaker 1: to the Broncos. The era on the Cardinals are red
1:02
Speaker 1: hot offensively coming in. They escaped by the skin of
1:06
Speaker 1: their teeth this past Sunday on a missfield goal by
1:09
Speaker 1: the Vikings. But there too at all and right there
1:12
Speaker 1: in the that really really good NFC West Division, and
1:17
Speaker 1: they've got a great quarterback and receivers. They get a
1:19
Speaker 1: lot of things. We'll go through them. Urban Meyer coming
1:22
Speaker 1: up on the Urban Meyer Show and the Jaguars Radio
1:24
Speaker 1: Network at five o'clock, we'll look forward to hearing from
1:28
Speaker 1: the Jaguars head coach J P. Shadrick, Jeff Lockman, and
1:32
Speaker 1: here we go another losing result logs. There were pieces
1:37
Speaker 1: of this game though, and very few, but some pieces
1:40
Speaker 1: of this game felt better. The the operation from the
1:43
Speaker 1: sideline of the field, the getting the play in the
1:46
Speaker 1: right number of players in the huddle, those important pre
1:50
Speaker 1: snap things like first week it it was rough. Yeah,
1:55
Speaker 1: I mean really rough, and really not any excuse for
1:58
Speaker 1: that type of organization in a in a game. And uh,
2:02
Speaker 1: I mean occasionally you might have an issue, but it
2:06
Speaker 1: was good to see that they did not have any
2:07
Speaker 1: of those issues. And so offensively and defensively, it's not
2:11
Speaker 1: like you were starting behind the chains because of your
2:13
Speaker 1: own personal mistakes. At least you were able to compete
2:17
Speaker 1: on even ground. The problem is is that turnovers and
2:21
Speaker 1: giveaways continue to be an issue for a football team
2:24
Speaker 1: that's playing a young quarterback. And I think what they
2:26
Speaker 1: do going forward jp to remedy that, I think it's
2:29
Speaker 1: gonna be very interesting because I think they've got to
2:32
Speaker 1: they've got to take a good long look at some
2:35
Speaker 1: of the things that they're doing as far as having balance,
2:39
Speaker 1: so that because it's going to give them the greatest
2:42
Speaker 1: chance at success is having ballots for two reasons. Two. Okay,
2:48
Speaker 1: Number one, you got a damn good running back and
2:51
Speaker 1: James Robinson, Okay, really good football player. He was your
2:54
Speaker 1: best football player last year and he's arguably your best
2:57
Speaker 1: football player right now. That's not what Number two. The
3:00
Speaker 1: more of the James Robinson is total the rock. The
3:04
Speaker 1: less pressure falls on a young quarterback that is clearly
3:07
Speaker 1: in the learning phase of a young career. So what's
3:11
Speaker 1: wrong with that? Okay? And it'll be interesting, and we're
3:15
Speaker 1: gonna ask Urban, Okay, how do you achieve more balance?
3:18
Speaker 1: Because I mean, that's I think is a very important question.
3:21
Speaker 1: How do you do that as a team, because going
3:26
Speaker 1: back to the early part of when he was hired,
3:30
Speaker 1: he talked about having a good rushing attack and and
3:35
Speaker 1: having balancing. Right now, the score you can't use an
3:39
Speaker 1: excuse in this past game because the score was relatively close,
3:42
Speaker 1: but you still didn't have a lot of balance. I
3:45
Speaker 1: gotta get that balance on offense. We'll get to the
3:47
Speaker 1: defense coming up as well. And we heard from a
3:50
Speaker 1: head coach Urban Meyer. Of course, after the game, he
3:52
Speaker 1: always speaks to us on Jaguar's postgame radio, the first
3:55
Speaker 1: word with the head coach and then with the media
3:58
Speaker 1: right after that, following whatever the result is. He also
4:01
Speaker 1: catches up with the media on Monday and he said,
4:05
Speaker 1: this team, this team is still fighting. There's a lot
4:09
Speaker 1: of fighting this team there. This team is gonna. There's
4:11
Speaker 1: fifteen games left and my goal, our goal is to
4:14
Speaker 1: have the strongest locker room that you can possibly have.
4:17
Speaker 1: I feel like it's extremely strong right now. Players are pissed,
4:22
Speaker 1: players want to win, players are sticking it together, and
4:25
Speaker 1: that's gonna. That's the best part of our team. The
4:28
Speaker 1: best part of our organization right now is what's in
4:29
Speaker 1: that locker room. That's Urban after the game on Sunday
4:34
Speaker 1: and speaking with the media. Yeah, So the locker room,
4:36
Speaker 1: it's all about the players, getting those guys to still
4:39
Speaker 1: believe and and improve as the weeks go along. Here.
4:43
Speaker 1: It may not become a playoff team next week, but
4:45
Speaker 1: if you improve some of the things that you're trying
4:48
Speaker 1: to build upon, then you can you can have something
4:51
Speaker 1: in a few weeks. Well, one thing is for certain,
4:53
Speaker 1: I understand where he's what he's trying to accomplish there,
4:56
Speaker 1: because if you're trying to fight back from losing, and
5:00
Speaker 1: if the locker room is not together and it's fractured,
5:03
Speaker 1: you have no chance of getting better. And so what
5:07
Speaker 1: he's trying to do is to maintain a belief that, hey, look,
5:11
Speaker 1: we're continuing to work, we're continuing to get better, and
5:15
Speaker 1: give them the belief that we will be better so
5:17
Speaker 1: that they can continue to improve. And that's not easier
5:20
Speaker 1: to do once you get in the regular season of
5:22
Speaker 1: the National Football League. Typically the best way to do
5:25
Speaker 1: that is in the off season by getting better better players.
5:28
Speaker 1: But it's hard. I mean, you're you have so many
5:30
Speaker 1: different limitations once you get in the regular season from
5:33
Speaker 1: a time standpoint to where most of the time is
5:36
Speaker 1: spent prepping for the game and installing a game plan
5:39
Speaker 1: and not so much working on basic technique and fundamentals.
5:42
Speaker 1: And so that's why it's very difficult for teams to
5:45
Speaker 1: make significant change during the season. Now, experience is a
5:50
Speaker 1: definitely a huge part of improvement, and that will help,
5:52
Speaker 1: especially with a young quarterback, no doubt. J P. Let's
5:55
Speaker 1: hear from the quarterback who threw a couple of picks
5:59
Speaker 1: in that game last week, had an early touchdown on
6:01
Speaker 1: a beautiful opening drive. They converted three third downs on
6:05
Speaker 1: that drive, had another with penalty to to moving forward.
6:08
Speaker 1: They got in the end zone, but later in the
6:09
Speaker 1: game those turnovers, Trevor Lawrence says, it's a work in progress.
6:14
Speaker 1: Who turnovers got to get better at that. Uh, certain
6:18
Speaker 1: made a great catch on the go ball, so that's
6:20
Speaker 1: one of those. It's like, you know, he made a
6:22
Speaker 1: great play. It happens, but the other one was a
6:25
Speaker 1: bad decision by me. But just continually putting these drives
6:29
Speaker 1: together and stay in the game because you can see
6:31
Speaker 1: where that closed today and just kind of got out
6:34
Speaker 1: of the game towards the end and they ran with it.
6:36
Speaker 1: But I think we're close. And obviously it's not what
6:39
Speaker 1: anybody wants to see, and it's frustrating and disappointing, but um,
6:42
Speaker 1: we're gonna stay together and I really feel like we're
6:44
Speaker 1: we're close. You know, we've got good enough players to
6:46
Speaker 1: win these games, so we should keep going to work.
6:49
Speaker 1: Trevor to come and give us a pep talk here
6:51
Speaker 1: in the show before we go on the air every week.
6:54
Speaker 1: He got great attitude he does. Yeah, he's got a
6:56
Speaker 1: great attitude. And and you go back and you look
6:58
Speaker 1: at the interceptions and you never want to see him.
7:02
Speaker 1: But young quarterbacks are going to have interceptions. I mean,
7:05
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning had I think it was like twenty seven
7:09
Speaker 1: or eight interceptions this rookie year, and which he only
7:11
Speaker 1: won three games. I mean, that's just that happens part
7:14
Speaker 1: of the learning process. But I think one of the
7:17
Speaker 1: things that he will be taught is that, Okay, let's
7:20
Speaker 1: go back and let's look at the interceptions. How do
7:22
Speaker 1: we correct it. How do we make sure that we
7:24
Speaker 1: don't do this again. The first interception was right after
7:28
Speaker 1: a James Robinson strong run. I believe it was a
7:32
Speaker 1: seven yard run. So you're essentially you've got a second
7:35
Speaker 1: and three situations. Second and three is kind of like
7:38
Speaker 1: a free down, so you don't put anything in the
7:40
Speaker 1: air that's gonna be risky on a second and three.
7:43
Speaker 1: If if you got a check down, take the checkdown.
7:45
Speaker 1: If you have to eat the football or throw it away,
7:47
Speaker 1: then then do so. And on that particular play, he
7:51
Speaker 1: was late on the decision making getting the ball to
7:55
Speaker 1: Ferrell his tight end and allowed Creem Jackson the time
7:58
Speaker 1: to get over the top and to make the interception
8:00
Speaker 1: needs a veteran player, and he wouldn't have gotten there
8:02
Speaker 1: if the decision was made quickly to throw the ball,
8:04
Speaker 1: or if the decision was made to throw to a
8:07
Speaker 1: checkdown to James Robinson the second interception, you've got a
8:12
Speaker 1: first and fifteen. You had a penalty to set you
8:15
Speaker 1: back to the first and fifteen, and it's but it's
8:16
Speaker 1: first down, you know, So do you want to press
8:20
Speaker 1: the ball at first and fifteen? No? I mean, sometimes
8:23
Speaker 1: you've got an underneath route which he had on that
8:26
Speaker 1: particular play that could have been a moderate completion. If
8:29
Speaker 1: it's really open, then maybe, oh absolutely, if it's really open,
8:32
Speaker 1: but it really wasn't open the dice, you know, maybe not.
8:36
Speaker 1: And I think I get the impression jp that sometimes
8:38
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence is trying to score fourteen points with one throw.
8:42
Speaker 1: You understand what I mean by just trying to do
8:44
Speaker 1: a little trying to do a little too much. And
8:46
Speaker 1: then that's typical of young quarterbacks. That's part of the
8:49
Speaker 1: learning process that has to happen with young quarterbacks that
8:53
Speaker 1: they need to understand that the only way that they
8:56
Speaker 1: can score a lot of points is to hit the
8:58
Speaker 1: open guys and let some of those guys do something
9:00
Speaker 1: with the ball. But I appreciate I mean, look, he
9:03
Speaker 1: I appreciate eyes down the field and he's looking down
9:06
Speaker 1: the field, and then he missed some things down the
9:09
Speaker 1: field too. That dj hr could post route down the middle,
9:12
Speaker 1: that dj had probably two or three steps on the
9:15
Speaker 1: defensive back and he misses him. I think he had
9:18
Speaker 1: Farrell at one point open and didn't throw to him either.
9:21
Speaker 1: He had he had him open. It went to Sir
9:24
Speaker 1: Tan had the interception and we called him certain and
9:26
Speaker 1: he he's learning still on that too. But one of
9:29
Speaker 1: the things that I would have, I think in that situation,
9:32
Speaker 1: because who's his intended target on the certain interception? Do
9:35
Speaker 1: you remember? I do not. I think it was Tyron
9:38
Speaker 1: Tyron Johns. If I've got a decision, this is just me.
9:44
Speaker 1: If I've got a decision, that okay, I've got one
9:47
Speaker 1: on one because that's type of situation, right, And the
9:51
Speaker 1: coverage was tight. Coverage was pretty tight. Sir Tan was
9:54
Speaker 1: on them, so it's not like there was there was
9:56
Speaker 1: two or three steps and Trevor sees that separation and
9:59
Speaker 1: throw it kind of hip hip. He yeah, he kind
10:02
Speaker 1: of hipped to hip and he decides to make that throw.
10:05
Speaker 1: If I've got the great Jimmy Smith, okay, one of
10:10
Speaker 1: the Jaguars all time great wide receivers, I'll make that throw. Okay.
10:16
Speaker 1: If I've got Tyron Johnson. I mean no offense to
10:19
Speaker 1: Tyron Johnson, but the guy wasn't even on a football
10:23
Speaker 1: team when when training camp started. And I think this
10:26
Speaker 1: is part of the the learning process because you know,
10:30
Speaker 1: maybe on the other side, if you've got DJ Chart
10:33
Speaker 1: and it's a single high safety, okay, let me think
10:36
Speaker 1: Tyron Johnson, d J Chart, Tyron Johnson, d J Chart,
10:41
Speaker 1: there's a little more history, I guess with Chart than
10:44
Speaker 1: there is with Johnson. Well, you know, more of his ability.
10:46
Speaker 1: You have you have to learn that there are some
10:50
Speaker 1: that you can trust and that there are some that
10:53
Speaker 1: you can't or that you're not ready to yet. Okay.
10:59
Speaker 1: And so, and that's a situation because both of the
11:01
Speaker 1: vertical routes were essentially hip hip covered throwing underneath. That's
11:06
Speaker 1: first and fifteen. You know you got a six yard game.
11:09
Speaker 1: Look second to nine. It's okay, okay, nothing wrong with that.
11:14
Speaker 1: Sometimes you can't be greedy and I think in some cases,
11:17
Speaker 1: I think he's getting a little bit greedy, but that again,
11:21
Speaker 1: that's part of the learning process for a young quarterback,
11:24
Speaker 1: and a lot of people maybe have the expectation that, well,
11:27
Speaker 1: he's the first to overall pick of the traff He's
11:28
Speaker 1: not gonna go through it. No, that he's still got
11:32
Speaker 1: to go through it. It's just that's part of the growth,
11:34
Speaker 1: the growth curve. It's got to happen. Let's discuss a
11:37
Speaker 1: little defense. Now. The Jags, because of some of the
11:39
Speaker 1: offensive issues, were on the field defensively for nearly thirty
11:44
Speaker 1: nine minutes in the game. Shot Griffin after the game
11:47
Speaker 1: on the play calling on the defensive side, and now
11:49
Speaker 1: they tried to hang in there. Coach telling you an
11:52
Speaker 1: amazing job making sure that costs perfect. Feel like his
11:55
Speaker 1: play card was amazing, his game and I may shot
11:57
Speaker 1: tell town Man right after the game, you know that
11:59
Speaker 1: was per Every situation was great and it has to
12:02
Speaker 1: build off of it has continue to build off continue
12:04
Speaker 1: to get his defense together. You know, uh, he's starting
12:07
Speaker 1: to turn over. Continue helped offense out. You gotta get
12:10
Speaker 1: the ball. Josh Allen talked about that earlier in the season.
12:13
Speaker 1: Like I just gotta figure out a way to get
12:15
Speaker 1: the football. Alan had a sack nearly swatted the ball
12:18
Speaker 1: away from Teddy Bridgewater, slinging them around a couple of
12:20
Speaker 1: times that that didn't didn't come out, and then Shack
12:22
Speaker 1: Griffin again had the ball in his hands a couple
12:25
Speaker 1: of different times. It would have been an acrobatic interception.
12:27
Speaker 1: It would have been a circus catch. But I mean,
12:29
Speaker 1: the ball, you know, it's close. It's as close as
12:31
Speaker 1: they got I guess on Sunday, and they still haven't
12:34
Speaker 1: reeled one in yet. And that's that's an issue. You know,
12:37
Speaker 1: if you look at the success or lack of success
12:40
Speaker 1: of this franchise, especially now in a seventeen game losing streak,
12:45
Speaker 1: you look at plus minus differential and you can't win
12:51
Speaker 1: unless you start to change that stat I mean literally
12:56
Speaker 1: your chances of winning. And and we've talked about this
12:59
Speaker 1: before and don't know the exact numbers, but you're not
13:02
Speaker 1: great if you well, no talking about the numbers of
13:06
Speaker 1: turnover differentials. You know, if you're even okay, fifty fifty,
13:10
Speaker 1: if you get one takeaway, your percentage probably jumps you know,
13:15
Speaker 1: sixt somewhere in that range. If you get two takeaways
13:19
Speaker 1: you or your plus two, then you're probability of win
13:24
Speaker 1: is probably in the seventy range. If you go to
13:27
Speaker 1: plus three, it's probably in the range. I mean, it's
13:31
Speaker 1: that that's how it works. I mean, the better you
13:34
Speaker 1: are in turnover differential and that's the single most determining
13:36
Speaker 1: factor in all of football. If you look at that
13:38
Speaker 1: stat that will tell you better than any other stat
13:42
Speaker 1: whether you're winning or losing is to turnover differential. And
13:46
Speaker 1: since you're not getting any takeaways as a defense, and
13:49
Speaker 1: you have a young quarterback that's learning and figuring things
13:52
Speaker 1: out and he's been turning the ball over, that's why
13:55
Speaker 1: you're not winning right now. And in order to change
13:58
Speaker 1: winning and losing, you need to change that number. Let's
14:03
Speaker 1: come back in a moment. Plenty of show ahead here
14:05
Speaker 1: on Jaguars Happy Hour. We'll get a little deeper into
14:08
Speaker 1: the Jaguars offensive issues from last week and go through
14:12
Speaker 1: some of the wide receivers so far and see if
14:14
Speaker 1: they can get some balance with a running game. Also,
14:18
Speaker 1: and uh coming up a little later, we'll look at
14:19
Speaker 1: the a f C South as well and see what
14:21

16:16
Speaker 1: I am not going to be the on stage tonight. Um,
16:19
Speaker 1: I'll be at the show most likely. Jaguars offense eighty
16:23
Speaker 1: three yards on the opening drive, smooth as can be,
16:28
Speaker 1: but then things got rocky in a hurry. The next
16:31
Speaker 1: three drives combined for seven yards. That's correct. They had
16:34
Speaker 1: a forty yard drive at one point, but missed a
16:37
Speaker 1: field goal right before half. They had a hundred six
16:40
Speaker 1: yards the rest of the day after drive number one.
16:44
Speaker 1: What in the world happened. Well, yeah, you had a
16:47
Speaker 1: lot of different things happened. I think that you have
16:50
Speaker 1: a quarterback that wasn't quite as crisp as the first drive.
16:55
Speaker 1: From that point on, I thought he was trying to
16:59
Speaker 1: be a little bit too aggressive down the field instead
17:01
Speaker 1: of sometimes taking what the defense will give you, which
17:05
Speaker 1: sometimes is underneath. Sometimes he missed things that were opened
17:10
Speaker 1: down the field. He missed Dj Chark which might have
17:13
Speaker 1: been a touchdown pass going down to the deep middle,
17:16
Speaker 1: and DJ probably had two or three steps on the
17:18
Speaker 1: defensive back, and so then you had a protection issues
17:24
Speaker 1: a couple of time that stall drives. But for the
17:26
Speaker 1: most part, I think the offensive line against a very
17:29
Speaker 1: good dever Broncos defensive front did very well. I thought.
17:33
Speaker 1: I thought it was good enough to win. And then defensively,
17:37
Speaker 1: you weren't able to take the ball away. So when
17:40
Speaker 1: you're not very efficient at the quarterback position throughout the
17:43
Speaker 1: course of the game, and then you turn the ball
17:46
Speaker 1: over and then you don't get takeaways as a defense,
17:52
Speaker 1: and you allow some big explosive plays by Courtland Sutton
17:59
Speaker 1: and easy touchdown by the tight end no fan, and
18:03
Speaker 1: you allow Teddy Bridgewater to create more time in the
18:07
Speaker 1: pocket to get the completions and the efficiency. It's hard
18:12
Speaker 1: to win that. I thought. I thought that the Jaguars
18:16
Speaker 1: defense for the most part did okay against the run,
18:20
Speaker 1: and that's what I would say going back to the
18:23
Speaker 1: previous week in Houston, they did okay. Okay, Yeah, But
18:27
Speaker 1: the issue is is that for this defense, because they're
18:30
Speaker 1: not generating a great pass rush, because if they were,
18:32
Speaker 1: they would have a takeaway by now that doing okay
18:36
Speaker 1: is not good enough. You have to be really good
18:39
Speaker 1: against the run. I think if your defense to give
18:41
Speaker 1: yourself the best chance that you need to have to
18:45
Speaker 1: be able to get after the passer JP. I mean,
18:47
Speaker 1: it can't be did okay this defense. If they want
18:51
Speaker 1: to be where they want to be in a in
18:53
Speaker 1: a stop the pass standpoint, you have to be outstanding
18:58
Speaker 1: against the run. And right now I don't think they've
19:00
Speaker 1: been outstanding yet. I mean, you look at what the
19:03
Speaker 1: young running back from the Denver Broncos javant to Williams did.
19:08
Speaker 1: I mean, he was he's really good. There was that
19:10
Speaker 1: one run where he broke like three tackles. He's kind
19:13
Speaker 1: of keeping his balance and then and then the more
19:16
Speaker 1: of the game on the better he looked. I mean,
19:18
Speaker 1: and so those guys, that's how it works for those
19:20
Speaker 1: you want to have that happened the opposite way. As
19:22
Speaker 1: the game is wearing on, your defense is getting better
19:24
Speaker 1: and you're shutting them out and making it making it
19:27
Speaker 1: hard for Teddy Bridgewater with third and seven pluts, and
19:31
Speaker 1: I don't think they accomplished that going to the secondary
19:35
Speaker 1: now when the ball is in the air. You know,
19:36
Speaker 1: there was that one long play at the start of
19:39
Speaker 1: the third quarter, but C. J. Henderson was out of
19:41
Speaker 1: the game at that point with the hip issue. Chris
19:43
Speaker 1: clay Brooks was in on that play and suddenly just
19:46
Speaker 1: kind of ran right past him. It felt like, well c. J.
19:49
Speaker 1: Henderson was on the field on on the one um
19:52
Speaker 1: crossing route where he gives up the touchdowns. I mean,
19:58
Speaker 1: so there's and it was a a poor job of
20:01
Speaker 1: trying to get across the field to cover it. I mean, look,
20:04
Speaker 1: there's traffic all the time. When you got man coverage,
20:07
Speaker 1: find a way to fight through it. And and it
20:10
Speaker 1: was almost like he was hesitant to kind of fight
20:12
Speaker 1: through that traffic. And you can't be hesitant, you know,
20:17
Speaker 1: if you get knocked on your Fannie trying to get there,
20:19
Speaker 1: get knocked on your fannie, but don't just kind of
20:21
Speaker 1: say whoa, whoa, whoa. You know I can't get through that. No,
20:25
Speaker 1: see if you can. How about the rest of the
20:27
Speaker 1: secondary This past week, I thought Ray Shawn Jenkins has
20:31
Speaker 1: been a nice addition, so he's done a good job.
20:34
Speaker 1: You know. Week one, he missed an opportunity there trying
20:37
Speaker 1: to break up some deep balls, and I thought he
20:40
Speaker 1: was okay. This week, I thought that Andrew Wingered played
20:43
Speaker 1: a solid game. Everybody's been on Wingered or not everybody.
20:47
Speaker 1: A lot of fans have been on Wingered. We didn't
20:49
Speaker 1: play well the first game, but yeah, I thought he
20:52
Speaker 1: played pretty well. He had sack, he was active, he
20:56
Speaker 1: didn't miss any tackles where he did the previous week.
21:00
Speaker 1: So yeah, I thought he was I thought he was okay.
21:03
Speaker 1: I thought he was okay. Everybody's kind of everybody, I
21:07
Speaker 1: keep saying everybody. So some folks feel that Andre Cisco
21:11
Speaker 1: could see a little more time as the year progresses. Here, Um, okay,
21:15
Speaker 1: what maybe you can take off the field. What if
21:19
Speaker 1: Winger continues to get better, then great, But here's the thing.
21:25
Speaker 1: Andrew Winger didn't have fourteen or fifteen interceptions in twenty
21:29
Speaker 1: three career games in college, whatever that number was. In fact,
21:33
Speaker 1: let me look at it. Thirteen interceptions in twenty four
21:37
Speaker 1: games at Syracuse. I mean, man, yeah, no doubt can
21:43
Speaker 1: Wing or do that. We haven't seen it yet. Well,
21:46
Speaker 1: I mean I'm not I'm not trying to, you know,
21:48
Speaker 1: be joking here. I'm just saying, is that. Look, when
21:51
Speaker 1: you have a guy that has the ability to take
21:54
Speaker 1: the ball away like that, and you're a defensive right
21:57
Speaker 1: now that has goose egg zero takeaways, you might want
22:03
Speaker 1: to get the guys on the field that can change
22:05
Speaker 1: that number. Right. So there's a guy and and here's
22:11
Speaker 1: the one thing I do understand. Cisco is still on
22:17
Speaker 1: his way back from an a c L injury that
22:19
Speaker 1: he suffered at Syracuse. So is there a schedule and
22:24
Speaker 1: a a plan that they have in place to allow
22:29
Speaker 1: him to get back to being full speed. I'm sure
22:31
Speaker 1: there is. I mean, most trainers doctors always have a plan.
22:38
Speaker 1: But or is it that or is it okay? We
22:43
Speaker 1: need to have him earn it, and he hasn't shown
22:45
Speaker 1: us yet that he's earning the more reps when he
22:47
Speaker 1: starts playing and he starts earning more reps, and we'll
22:49
Speaker 1: give him more reps. I mean maybe it's some of
22:51
Speaker 1: that too. I don't know, but I know this, he's
22:54
Speaker 1: got ball skills. If I watched his college film, I
22:58
Speaker 1: watched this preseason performances, this guy can play some football.
23:02
Speaker 1: And when he gets if he's anywhere around the ball,
23:06
Speaker 1: it's his Well that would sound pretty nice for this
23:10
Speaker 1: defense right about now. That's what you need, you know.
23:13
Speaker 1: And another thing is to shock shack Griffin had his
23:15
Speaker 1: hands on the ball. He had week one, he had
23:17
Speaker 1: an early one, and then he had another one this
23:19
Speaker 1: week that was would have been an acrobatic catch, but
23:21
Speaker 1: it would have been it would have been a crazy catch.
23:23
Speaker 1: But look, I mean sometimes that's you know, you gotta
23:27
Speaker 1: make them. I mean, make a crazy catch because there's
23:29
Speaker 1: gonna be some easy ones that you drop works, you know,
23:35
Speaker 1: so you gotta start making some some more splash plays
23:40
Speaker 1: as a defense, whether that's you know, pressure in the quarterback,
23:44
Speaker 1: sacking the quarterback in a good job. Look, you got
23:47
Speaker 1: three sacks this pass game. And I like the production
23:50
Speaker 1: of gods is. I think if there's a question, do
23:52
Speaker 1: you have Tavin Bryan or Adam gots this active on
23:56
Speaker 1: game day, I'm I'm choosing Adam Gotsis from now on.
23:59
Speaker 1: You know, the previous week they chose to have him
24:01
Speaker 1: inactive and Tavin Bryan was active. Adam Gotsis, I think
24:07
Speaker 1: gives you more productivity. I think that's very obvious. And
24:10
Speaker 1: so if you're trying to put the best football team
24:13
Speaker 1: out there and you put him, put him out there. Well,
24:16
Speaker 1: there was the one fourth down play that comes to
24:18
Speaker 1: my mind speaking of Tavin Brian Or he ended up
24:21
Speaker 1: on his back side. Yeah, he got knocked those fourth
24:25
Speaker 1: and one and one and a half went fourth and
24:27
Speaker 1: shorty and it was a quarterback sneaking and Bobby Massey
24:31
Speaker 1: ended up taking him back and essentially putting him on
24:34
Speaker 1: his back at five yards deep. You know. And that's
24:37
Speaker 1: only one playoff of the game. And look, everybody's had
24:40
Speaker 1: and will have their beer and kicked in the National
24:42
Speaker 1: Football League. That happened. But the plays that I'm referring
24:47
Speaker 1: to and and that that Gods has just has more awareness.
24:51
Speaker 1: He has more awareness for where the ball is and
24:53
Speaker 1: where he needs to go. So he has a better
24:57
Speaker 1: nose for the football. And when you have a better
25:00
Speaker 1: from football, it's about making plays and then play them.
25:02
Speaker 1: We got a sack last week to plenty ahead. Will
25:05
Speaker 1: come back in a moment and look at headlogs. The
25:07
Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals are coming to town in Week three. One
25:11
Speaker 1: of the hottest offenses in football, and then they have
25:15
Speaker 1: arguably one of the most entertaining all offenses in the
25:20
Speaker 1: National Football League. Let's hope not this week. I hope not.
25:24
Speaker 1: We'll bring it all down when we come back. Check

25:47
Speaker 1: you want to win, and like I said, you work
25:49
Speaker 1: all week to win, and when you're going it's disappointing.
25:51
Speaker 1: But I feel like I'm in I'm in a good spot.
25:55
Speaker 1: I'm the same I'm the same person, same mindset, nothing's changed.
25:58
Speaker 1: So making sure to keep my confidence every week is
26:01
Speaker 1: big and I think I have that. So, um, we're
26:04
Speaker 1: gonna get better. We're close. You know. It's obviously last
26:08
Speaker 1: week and this week doesn't look great when you look
26:10
Speaker 1: at them, the numbers, but I really do like look
26:12
Speaker 1: close and we just gotta make some more plays and
26:14
Speaker 1: stay together. There's the quarterback, Trevor Lawrence after the game
26:18
Speaker 1: Sunday and welcome back at Jaguars Happy Hour on a
26:21
Speaker 1: Tuesday afternoon. J P. Shadrick with Jeff Loguman, Joe Fortunato
26:24
Speaker 1: on the audio, Brent Reever on the video side on
26:26
Speaker 1: Jaguars dot Com. The Urban Meyer Show coming up at
26:29
Speaker 1: five o'clock. We'll hear from the Jaguars head coach, as
26:33
Speaker 1: we always do on Tuesday's get his final thoughts on
26:36
Speaker 1: the previous week's game, and then an early look at
26:40
Speaker 1: week number three. And our early look at week number
26:43
Speaker 1: three begins now, and you don't need to look much
26:46
Speaker 1: further than Kyler Murray, the quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals.
26:50
Speaker 1: He is among the league leaders in a few passing
26:52
Speaker 1: categories early this season. It's a dynamic playmaker gets out
26:56
Speaker 1: of the pocket. He's a former baseball player who's the
26:59
Speaker 1: first round pick as an outfielder for the Oakland A's.
27:03
Speaker 1: He's just got a different style about him when he
27:06
Speaker 1: runs around and then can throw the ball down the
27:09
Speaker 1: field at different arm angles and twisting and turning and
27:12
Speaker 1: fading away, and it always seems to be, you know,
27:16
Speaker 1: like fifty yards down the field and on the money
27:18
Speaker 1: somehow sometimes how does that work? Well? Not all the time.
27:22
Speaker 1: I mean he will throw some interceptions. Now, So this week,
27:27
Speaker 1: if there was any week to break the lack of
27:30
Speaker 1: takeaways is a defense, this is the week because he
27:33
Speaker 1: will throw you one and you've got to make sure
27:35
Speaker 1: that you catch it, and he might throw you too
27:38
Speaker 1: if he does three or four. Come on, it could be,
27:43
Speaker 1: could be. It just depends on how well your offense performance,
27:45
Speaker 1: what the score differential is, and where it's what side
27:48
Speaker 1: of the fence that is lyned on, because if you
27:50
Speaker 1: put there is a little cardinals in a situation where
27:52
Speaker 1: they've got to play a little bit of catch up,
27:54
Speaker 1: then that would be better for your defense. But the
27:56
Speaker 1: one thing about Kyl Murray is it's like like a
28:00
Speaker 1: video game. He's all over the map, but he's running
28:04
Speaker 1: around and and then all of sudden he'll stop and
28:06
Speaker 1: throw it down the field. He scores with his legs.
28:09
Speaker 1: He's a kind of for nine touchdowns as a quarterback
28:13
Speaker 1: so far, which probably is one of the best in
28:15
Speaker 1: the league, if not the best. And I seriously when
28:21
Speaker 1: I when I say this, you might want to put
28:23
Speaker 1: as much speed as you have on the field when
28:25
Speaker 1: he's out there, because he will extend plays. And the
28:29
Speaker 1: more speed you have, the less likely possibly that you
28:34
Speaker 1: are going to give him more talk. Do you have
28:36
Speaker 1: a spy for lack of a better turn? Do you
28:39
Speaker 1: have somebody just follows him around on you can I've
28:43
Speaker 1: seen that done before. I mean, if you have somebody
28:45
Speaker 1: that is exceptional at extending the play, and I've seen
28:51
Speaker 1: it done before to where a team might rush three
28:55
Speaker 1: instead of four, and then the fourth guy is not
28:59
Speaker 1: uncover ridge, but he basically just stays right there at
29:02
Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage. And it could be your fastest
29:05
Speaker 1: defensive end rush or whatever. It could be your fastest
29:10
Speaker 1: linebacker for example, if you put Telvin Smith out there
29:14
Speaker 1: or Miles Jack I mean thinking about fast linebackers in
29:17
Speaker 1: Jaguars history, those are probably two of the fastest. Like
29:20
Speaker 1: those type of guys you say, okay, you stay here,
29:25
Speaker 1: and then once he decides to go left, right or
29:27
Speaker 1: up the middle, you're on them. And uh, when I
29:33
Speaker 1: was in New York one time, I remember we had,
29:36
Speaker 1: we had a defensive back in that role. Didn't work
29:39
Speaker 1: very well, but we tried it. That was one of
29:43
Speaker 1: one of Pete Carroll's early trial and error type of
29:48
Speaker 1: defenses that he had. The error. Yeah, it definitely didn't work. Huh. So,
29:54
Speaker 1: of course when you have a quarterback like that, it
29:56
Speaker 1: helps when you have some weapons down the field, and
29:59
Speaker 1: they have some certainly in Arizona. DeAndre Hopkins is there,
30:02
Speaker 1: former Texans wide receiver and we we know, oh well
30:06
Speaker 1: what kind of player he is. Though in his career
30:09
Speaker 1: against the Jaguars, he's played in fourteen games, only six touchdowns,
30:13
Speaker 1: but you know that was over you know, the time
30:18
Speaker 1: with the Houston Texans to one yard games in that time.
30:20
Speaker 1: But if you let off him at all, even if
30:24
Speaker 1: you cover him with a guy or double cover, and
30:27
Speaker 1: we've seen him make some incredible catches, certainly in this
30:30
Speaker 1: time in Arizona so far, he is uh, he's got
30:34
Speaker 1: great hands, great hands, does a great job with contested catches.
30:40
Speaker 1: He's not a burner anymore. I think he's a He's
30:42
Speaker 1: essentially a a possession receiver and he probably won't agree
30:47
Speaker 1: to that, and he makes bigger plays than most possession
30:51
Speaker 1: receivers as far as the multitude of him. But the
30:54
Speaker 1: speed is not a factor with him anymore. He's not
30:56
Speaker 1: gonna run by anybody. I feel like this is probably
30:59
Speaker 1: gonna be an his bulletin board and his locker this week.
31:02
Speaker 1: Jeff cares what I say? You think he cares what
31:07
Speaker 1: I know? He doesn't care what I say. But I
31:10
Speaker 1: mean that's what he's become. I mean, look at his
31:12
Speaker 1: career stats. I mean as as receiver's age, that's kind
31:15
Speaker 1: of what happened sometimes. Yeah, it hasn't happened with a j. Green.
31:23
Speaker 1: He's on the team too, Julio Jones. What is he
31:26
Speaker 1: in like your twenty Yeah, I guess you're right there,
31:30
Speaker 1: he goes. I mean that some guys still got it
31:33
Speaker 1: and that's just not DeAndre Hopkins game. But I can
31:35
Speaker 1: tell you this, for a quarterback that runs around a
31:38
Speaker 1: lot and creates six what we call scramble rules plays
31:42
Speaker 1: or broken plays, you might not have a better receiver
31:46
Speaker 1: than DeAndre Hopkins on the on the planet. Because he's creative,
31:50
Speaker 1: he invents things, and when the quarterback throws it up
31:54
Speaker 1: to him, the quarterback trust that he's going to catch
31:57
Speaker 1: the ball, and at the very least he's not gonna
31:59
Speaker 1: let the oponent catched the ball octoberen ross A Stadium,
32:05
Speaker 1: West Lafayette, Indiana, under the lights, per Due upset number
32:08
Speaker 1: three Ohio State twenty. It was Urban Meyers thirty second
32:13
Speaker 1: and final college loss. In that game, Rondale Moore had
32:18
Speaker 1: twelve receptions, a hundred seventy yards and two touchdowns for
32:21
Speaker 1: the boiler Makers and an upset win, the only loss
32:24
Speaker 1: of the season for the buck Eyes. They went on
32:25
Speaker 1: to win the Rose Bowl, but not the National Championship.
32:28
Speaker 1: Rondale Moore now with Arizona leading the Cardinals in targets, catches,
32:32
Speaker 1: and yards, which which is amazing. He played Perdue. State
32:37
Speaker 1: lost the Purdue. Yes they did. They stormed the field
32:39
Speaker 1: that night at ross A. How do you do that? Well,
32:42
Speaker 1: that's that's what State has when guys like this put
32:45
Speaker 1: it together, those kind of performances State has, Like there
32:49
Speaker 1: was an upset Dwayne Haskins in that game. By the
32:52
Speaker 1: way side, note through the ball seventy three times for
32:55
Speaker 1: the buck Eyes that night. What seventy three and they
32:59
Speaker 1: only scored twenty points. How many times did they run it?
33:02
Speaker 1: I don't know, but it was. Yeah, it was it
33:06
Speaker 1: was a heck of a night. Let's put it. That
33:08
Speaker 1: a reason why passes. Yes, I mean it's a lot.
33:14
Speaker 1: How does his arm not fall off? Well, I mean,
33:17
Speaker 1: I don't know. In the NFL, if you get seventy plays,
33:19
Speaker 1: you're lucky, right, exactly, I mean exactly. I'd say the
33:25
Speaker 1: average number of plays in the National Football League is
33:27
Speaker 1: probably right around right around seventy, maybe sixty seventy, someone
33:34
Speaker 1: right in that range. Right, Yeah, because the clocks moving
33:37
Speaker 1: all the time, and you're you know, up and at it,
33:39
Speaker 1: the play clocks a little shorter. Yeah, yeah, that's but anyway,
33:43
Speaker 1: that's that's crazy. But more as a guy who stepped
33:46
Speaker 1: in this year's a rookie second round pick, and it
33:49
Speaker 1: really been a nice addition for the Arizona offense. And
33:51
Speaker 1: he's like five ft seven by the way, he can
33:54
Speaker 1: go play. He is what seven five? He is? I anybody,
34:00
Speaker 1: I haven't. I haven't watched a ton of him yet.
34:02
Speaker 1: You need to, but I will. And here's the one
34:05
Speaker 1: thing I will say about the Cardinals. They got a
34:07
Speaker 1: lot of single digit guys. You know, every team you
34:10
Speaker 1: know kind of jumped on that bandwagon. They want to
34:12
Speaker 1: do a bunch of single digits, and nobody seems to
34:15
Speaker 1: like the number two except for a quarterback in New York.
34:20
Speaker 1: Why is that? I don't know. But Chase Edmonds has
34:24
Speaker 1: number two. You got Kyler Murray at one, Chase Edmonds
34:28
Speaker 1: was wearing two. Nobody likes three. I guess Rondel Moore
34:32
Speaker 1: is four. Nobody likes five. If you were going to
34:36
Speaker 1: pick a single digit to wear JP and you played,
34:39
Speaker 1: and you were playing ball, regardless of position, what number
34:43
Speaker 1: would you want to wear? That's a good one. I
34:48
Speaker 1: don't know. Eight, it's kind of I don't know. I
34:51
Speaker 1: have no idea, any particular reason why. Joe, what number
34:55
Speaker 1: would you wear? Joe would wear number five, you'd be
34:58
Speaker 1: number one. I'm not a big fan of the number one.
35:02
Speaker 1: That's kind of a look at me number. I'm just saying,
35:04
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm not saying anything like Connor Murray,
35:06
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna say that's on his bulletin board. Now
35:09
Speaker 1: the way to go. I know one thing is that
35:13
Speaker 1: jahad Ward. Where's number six? Yeah? He's he kind of
35:18
Speaker 1: shook the tree last night. He kind of shook the
35:21
Speaker 1: tree on social media last night. What did he do?
35:25
Speaker 1: Apparently he said something regarding the Ravens they were on
35:29
Speaker 1: and he apologized to Jaguars fans today. Okay, let's put
35:33
Speaker 1: that way. Okay, hopefully it's water under the bridge, but anyway,
35:37
Speaker 1: up hope. Okay, So now I'm gonna like, I want
35:40
Speaker 1: to go to Twitter and find out what he said.
35:42
Speaker 1: But anyway, if you're six ft five, is that what
35:48
Speaker 1: do you have? Six five six six something like that
35:51
Speaker 1: and two hundred and ninety pounds, a single digit number
35:56
Speaker 1: just doesn't work, you know what I mean. It's allowed, though,
36:00
Speaker 1: now see they change it. It's like it's like wearing stripes, okay,
36:05
Speaker 1: and you're really wide and you wear horizontal stripes. Makes
36:10
Speaker 1: you look wider. Okay, So if you're a big man,
36:14
Speaker 1: stick with the double digits. It makes you look better
36:17
Speaker 1: in a jersey. When you wear a single digit number
36:20
Speaker 1: kind of makes you look a little portly. And I'm
36:22
Speaker 1: not saying ja it is a little portly. I'm just
36:24
Speaker 1: saying is that it makes you look not quite as felt.
36:27
Speaker 1: I think you just did the late Lewis Knicks the
36:31
Speaker 1: third at Notre Dame, wore the number one, the big
36:33
Speaker 1: nose tackle. Yeah, it did look good on him. That's uh.
36:36
Speaker 1: That's one of those. Let's come back in a moment.
36:38
Speaker 1: We've got plenty ahead. Well, we'll touch on the Cardinals defense.
36:41
Speaker 1: Couple of veteran names pass rushing for the Cardinals. We'll
36:46
Speaker 1: go through the injury report presented by Baptist Health, little
36:48
Speaker 1: AFC talk, and a discussion about a long time Jaguars
36:53
Speaker 1: employee and original who is retiring, hanging it up at
36:58
Speaker 1: the end of the year. That's all coming up. And
37:00
Speaker 1: you're looking for the m v P of the truck game,
37:01
Speaker 1: then look no further than Ford F one fifty. Loaded
37:04
Speaker 1: with impressive capability and designed to dominate, workplay and everything
37:09
Speaker 1: in between. This truck makes tough look easy, no wonder.
37:13
Speaker 1: It's the official truck of the NFL and proud partner
37:16
Speaker 1: of your Jacksonville Jaguars. And this is Jaguars Happy Hour
37:19
Speaker 1: on the Jaguars Digital Network. Jaguars Game Day broadcasts are

Speaker 1: presented by Vice, Star Credit Union and welcome back. It's
37:28
Speaker 1: Jaguars Happy Hour j P. Shadrick with Jeff Logman, Thank

Speaker 1: you for joining us this afternoon. And Veterans, choose v
37:35
Speaker 1: A for the benefits you've hearned. Visit Choose dot v
37:38
Speaker 1: A dot Gov. Let's take a look at the injury
37:42
Speaker 1: report presented by Baptist Health Changing Healthcare for Good. A
37:45
Speaker 1: few names on it, and rban Meyer updated some of
37:48
Speaker 1: the status sees Status is that STATI status status is
37:53
Speaker 1: gave us the status of a few players on Monday. A. J. Ken,
37:58
Speaker 1: the right guard with the hamstring. Urban said he'll probably
38:02
Speaker 1: play this week. C. J. Henderson with a hip wait
38:05
Speaker 1: and see Trey Herndon with a knee issue. Well, he
38:08
Speaker 1: could be back on the practice field this week. That'd
38:10
Speaker 1: be good news and a boon for the second year
38:12
Speaker 1: if he's available. James O'Shaughnessy with a high ankle sprain.
38:16
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a few weeks at least for him.
38:18
Speaker 1: And Labisca Chenault Jr. With the shoulder issue last week
38:21
Speaker 1: in the game, but Urban said he should be a
38:24
Speaker 1: fine for practice and we'll see how the days go.
38:27
Speaker 1: But at least that's a good start for Labisca. Moving ahead,
38:29
Speaker 1: there's your Baptist Health Injury Report Baptist Health Changing Healthcare
38:34
Speaker 1: for Good. I wish that Laviska had not had those
38:37
Speaker 1: two drops in the game. Yeah, they were big, they seemed,
38:43
Speaker 1: and they kind of stalled a couple of drives. Well,
38:45
Speaker 1: when you're when you're losing, the mistakes obviously are magnified
38:49
Speaker 1: and uh, because that's what you have to do. You
38:52
Speaker 1: have to work on correcting the things that you are
38:54
Speaker 1: not doing well. And drops and both the first and
38:58
Speaker 1: the second game have been an issue. It hasn't been
39:01
Speaker 1: a hundred of them, but it's been enough to where
39:03
Speaker 1: it's affected the rhythm and the way that the offense
39:05
Speaker 1: is playing. And you've got to try to find a
39:07
Speaker 1: way to correct that. And with the type of player
39:11
Speaker 1: that leavisk is and a lot of people say, wow,
39:13
Speaker 1: he really didn't have two drops that one would have
39:15
Speaker 1: been a tough catch to make. Well, he's a tough guy.
39:19
Speaker 1: That's the type of catch and the type of player
39:21
Speaker 1: that I think Lavisko Chanalt has to be for this
39:23
Speaker 1: football team so that he is not afraid or or
39:27
Speaker 1: unwilling to go across the middle and and knows that
39:30
Speaker 1: at times when he catches the ball he's gonna get
39:32
Speaker 1: hit and he still has to make the catch. That's
39:35
Speaker 1: the type of player that he has to be for
39:38
Speaker 1: this football team. Let's take a look around the a
39:40
Speaker 1: f C South and touch on all the team's activity
39:44
Speaker 1: and week number two, and let's start off with the
39:46
Speaker 1: Houston Texas. They had a lead on the Browns. Tyrod
39:49
Speaker 1: Taylor then suffered a hamstring injury. Baker Mayfield was banged
39:54
Speaker 1: up in the game, but stayed in came back in
39:56
Speaker 1: the Browns rally to win thirty one. It's a short
39:59
Speaker 1: week and Dave Mills could get the start Thursday night,
40:01
Speaker 1: which he was the Texans top draft pick and I
40:04
Speaker 1: believe he was a third round pick. It's amazing, right,
40:07
Speaker 1: which I ought to tell you that the Texans are
40:10
Speaker 1: always away from building that team back into a winner,
40:14
Speaker 1: but they play on Thursday night football too. So you're
40:16
Speaker 1: gonna have a rookie that is thrust into the lineup
40:20
Speaker 1: on a short week because of an injury to Tyrod Taylor,
40:24
Speaker 1: which is gonna miss I think a couple of weeks
40:26
Speaker 1: with the injury that he had. So and man, Derrick
40:29
Speaker 1: Henry of the Tennessee Titans, what are you kidding me?
40:33
Speaker 1: What a second half for Tennessee as they beat the
40:37
Speaker 1: Seahawks thirty three thirty he's speaking of you. We're talking
40:40
Speaker 1: about backs to get warm as the game goes along.
40:44
Speaker 1: When Derrick Henry starts to roll and then all of
40:46
Speaker 1: a sudden he's turning up a little yardage. It just
40:48
Speaker 1: goes and goes, and then let's forget about it. He
40:51
Speaker 1: has I think this is a very unique trade and
40:55
Speaker 1: it didn't happen the first week, but typically he has it.
40:58
Speaker 1: He has his trade that he can started off slow
41:01
Speaker 1: in a game and he finishes extremely strong and a
41:04
Speaker 1: lot of people think he's and never thought that he
41:07
Speaker 1: was a burner. Watch him on game day. He runs
41:11
Speaker 1: away from people and he's what do you think he
41:15
Speaker 1: highthway six four? Hey, I bet he's too sixty to fifty.
41:21
Speaker 1: What if I had to guess six four to fifty.
41:25
Speaker 1: I will tell you what the official height and weight
41:28
Speaker 1: they tell you it is. Yeah, can be different. Actually,
41:35
Speaker 1: they don't even listed on the Titans website. Um two
41:41
Speaker 1: fifties about what they've called him in the past. But
41:44
Speaker 1: he might be bigger than that. I mean he's he's
41:47
Speaker 1: a big guy because he stands next to offensive line
41:49
Speaker 1: and you're like, he's not that much. He looks like
41:51
Speaker 1: a defensive end. I think it's the easy way to
41:54
Speaker 1: describe it. He looks like a defensive end in the
41:57
Speaker 1: National Football League that is uh or an out side
42:00
Speaker 1: linebacker in the National Football He's playing a three four
42:03
Speaker 1: defensive end playing a four three. He's big dude. And
42:07
Speaker 1: then finally the Indianapolis Colts, Carson Wentz hurt both ankles
42:11
Speaker 1: somehow in the game and the Rams beat the Colts. Yeah,
42:16
Speaker 1: and that's that's that's gonna be an issue. And Carson
42:19
Speaker 1: Wentz has had a hard time staying healthy and and
42:22
Speaker 1: I hope you know that he has success, you know,
42:24
Speaker 1: not against the Jaguars, but I hope that he is
42:28
Speaker 1: has confined a way back to the player that he
42:31
Speaker 1: once was, which we thought he was the next great
42:36
Speaker 1: up and comer. Injuries have just ruined his career and
42:40
Speaker 1: then you know, the wheels kind of fall off, and
42:45
Speaker 1: next you know he's he's traded and the Eagles game
42:50
Speaker 1: and extension and everybody was thinking, this guy is gonna
42:54
Speaker 1: be an Eagle for life. He's gonna be a great
42:55
Speaker 1: quarterback for the Eagles. He's gonna lead them to the
42:58
Speaker 1: to the playoffs every year. And now he's just trying
43:03
Speaker 1: to stay healthy and stay on the field for a
43:05
Speaker 1: different football team. So that's going to be an interesting
43:09
Speaker 1: watch how that works out through the end of the year.
43:10
Speaker 1: Who's the backup in Endie. By the way, I haven't
43:14
Speaker 1: seen no, not the It's East two years ago. Kobe
43:26
Speaker 1: Procett's the backup for the Miami Dolphin. That's right. The
43:31
Speaker 1: merry go around continues. Once you're you're kind of in
43:33
Speaker 1: the club that at least for the next a few years,
43:36
Speaker 1: you can kind of stick around. Now you have to
43:37
Speaker 1: look around the a f C South. Let's wrap the
43:39
Speaker 1: show today with some news that came out late last
43:43
Speaker 1: week about an original Jaguars employee. Dan Edwards, joined the
43:47
Speaker 1: Jaguars organization in Nino in the communications department, worked his
43:52
Speaker 1: way up became the senior VP of Communications for the team.
43:58
Speaker 1: He is retiring at the end of the season and
44:02
Speaker 1: has spent a long time is almost his entire professional
44:05
Speaker 1: career in the National Football League started in the league
44:08
Speaker 1: office in nineteen eighty three. He was an intern in
44:10
Speaker 1: New York alongside another intern named Roger Goodell and hell,
44:16
Speaker 1: of course, now the commissioner of the good NFL. He
44:18
Speaker 1: spent a year with the Miami Dolphins, the year the
44:20
Speaker 1: Dolphins went to the Super Bowl, and then the year
44:23
Speaker 1: after that ended up with the Pittsburgh Steelers. In five
44:26
Speaker 1: through the ninety three season, and then ninety four came
44:32
Speaker 1: down to Jacksonville when the stadium was being built. That's
44:34
Speaker 1: before the franchise. Seven years with the franchise pretty incredible.
44:38
Speaker 1: And Dan's gonna hang it up at the end of
44:40
Speaker 1: the season. And I know we all in our department
44:44
Speaker 1: here in the broadcast world are incredibly close to Dan,
44:47
Speaker 1: and he's done so many things for us personally and
44:51
Speaker 1: professionally over the years. We're gonna miss having him around
44:54
Speaker 1: these hallways and being able to pick his brain and um,
44:58
Speaker 1: because he's seen a lot of things. Things in those
45:00
Speaker 1: twenties seven years here is certainly everything that has happened,
45:03
Speaker 1: but just league knowledge and general just good around, good,
45:08
Speaker 1: good all around people are hard to find, and you
45:10
Speaker 1: got all that combined in one guy. And Dan Edwards. Well,
45:13
Speaker 1: I've always appreciated damn twenty seven years with the franchise.
45:17
Speaker 1: I think it's like thirty eight years in the National
45:19
Speaker 1: Football League and twenty two years he's been my boss
45:25
Speaker 1: and uh, which is a very long time and couldn't
45:28
Speaker 1: have atched for a better boss. And I've always loved
45:32
Speaker 1: and appreciated his wisdom through the years, and I will
45:36
Speaker 1: still count on and rely upon that wisdom for many
45:39
Speaker 1: years to come because he's a friend. And uh and
45:43
Speaker 1: I considered Dan a great friend and he's gonna be
45:45
Speaker 1: missed and an unbelievable family man um late wife and
45:50
Speaker 1: the four kids and now grandkids are coming along and
45:53
Speaker 1: he's gonna spend a lot of time with him. And
45:55
Speaker 1: you know, he's got two sons that are in the
45:58
Speaker 1: NFL and PR departments right now, um, and then a
46:02
Speaker 1: daughter that's at Florida and Communications at the at the moment,
46:05
Speaker 1: So there's a there's a lot of future Edwards to
46:08
Speaker 1: be around. They're not going anywhere in the NFL. Yeah,
46:10
Speaker 1: they always say this, This kind of goes back many
46:14
Speaker 1: years that they always say is that the greatest thing
46:16
Speaker 1: you ever accomplishes your kids. And I've always said this
46:19
Speaker 1: that the kids are always a great reflection on the
46:22
Speaker 1: men and the women that raised them. And Dan and Patricia,
46:26
Speaker 1: his late wife, raised an incredible family and uh, yeah,
46:32
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be. It's gonna be. We gotta find
46:33
Speaker 1: a way to keep Dan coming back, you know a
46:35
Speaker 1: little bit where we can see them, and I don't know,
46:38
Speaker 1: maybe we need to come up with like a Saturday
46:40
Speaker 1: night beer nights. So I'm gonna say there might be
46:42
Speaker 1: a six pack involves at some point if we tell
46:45
Speaker 1: them they Dan free bud Light, I think we might
46:50
Speaker 1: get them there. Maybe maybe so, but we got we
46:53
Speaker 1: got a little time left with the Dan Edwards in
46:55
Speaker 1: the office every day, and that's a great thing for us.
46:57
Speaker 1: We're January. January is when he is officially retired. Right
47:02
Speaker 1: there might be a point where he's not around, but
47:04
Speaker 1: he's still working remotely as as they say, but well
47:08
Speaker 1: he'll be around, which is which is probably gonna take
47:11
Speaker 1: advantage of a six leave that he has built up
47:15
Speaker 1: seven years. He's probably got a little bit. I think
47:18
Speaker 1: there's probably some in the in the Hopper forum. So
47:21
Speaker 1: congratulations to Dan on a fantastic career. We've got some
47:24
Speaker 1: time left with him. So the Jaguars and the Denver
47:28
Speaker 1: Broncos game is done. The Jaguars at the Arizona Cardinals
47:32
Speaker 1: this week. We're about to hear from Urban Meyer coming up.
47:34
Speaker 1: The Urban Meyers Show is next, and I'm curious what
47:38
Speaker 1: Urban thinks of the effort and overall performance last week.
47:43
Speaker 1: It kind of looked better overall. We'll get his thoughts
47:45
Speaker 1: on that. Coming up well. And I think the other
47:47
Speaker 1: thing too, is that how are you going to handle
47:49
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray man? And I'm sure that you know it's Tuesday,
47:54
Speaker 1: and we're talking to him on Tuesdays, and I know
47:56
Speaker 1: Tuesdays are the day in which they're still trying to
47:58
Speaker 1: formulate game plan. Tuesday is a big game planning day.
48:02
Speaker 1: So he's gonna have all the answers for us. No,
48:06
Speaker 1: but you would share anyway anyway. I don't think so.
48:10
Speaker 1: But that's gonna be the big challenge this week is
48:12
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray and and they've got some weapons on that defense.
48:15
Speaker 1: And then how are you going to block this pass
48:17
Speaker 1: rusher this week? Now he's he's a challenge. Now there's
48:20
Speaker 1: yes to him. Chandler Jones and J. J. Watt. You know,
48:24
Speaker 1: he's getting more. He's been banked up for a few years.
48:27
Speaker 1: The new environment, I'm not buying it, you know, chan
48:30
Speaker 1: Chandler Jones is a great player, and it's still a
48:33
Speaker 1: great player age J. J. Watt is not is not
48:38
Speaker 1: a he's not a great player anymore. He's a good player,
48:42
Speaker 1: but he's not the J. J. Watt that we've watched
48:44
Speaker 1: from the the ap defensive player of the Year anymore.
48:47
