- 1:08Speaker 1: conference after the Jaguars returned from a three day break,
- 1:12Speaker 1: the Jaguars head coach discussed the preseason preparation plus his
- 1:15Speaker 1: level of concern while managing a roster with COVID nineteen restrictions.
- 1:20Speaker 1: Did the three preseason games give you a good idea
- 1:22Speaker 1: of what to expect? Yeah, that's a good question because
- 1:25Speaker 1: it is different. Obviously, a look out there and you
- 1:27Speaker 1: see a much smaller roster. You know, you're we're still
- 1:30Speaker 1: deciding who's going to be an active the day of
- 1:32Speaker 1: the game, those type of things. That's the little bit
- 1:34Speaker 1: of anxiety that I have that that's all new to me.
- 1:37Speaker 1: But you know, as far as game management, I feel
- 1:39Speaker 1: very good about it. I feel very good about our
- 1:41Speaker 1: coaching staff, and most important, I feel good about the
- 1:43Speaker 1: lock row, which is maybe the most important thing in
- 1:47Speaker 1: any organization. For talking to your coaches who were in
- 1:50Speaker 1: the NFL last year, what's the kind of feeling you
- 1:53Speaker 1: yet about how much the potential for interruption is from
- 2:00Speaker 1: of it compared to last year. Last year obviously it
- 2:03Speaker 1: wasn't involved, but there's a horror story is that people
- 2:06Speaker 1: would come in and you three guys, you five guys whatever,
- 2:09Speaker 1: and and you never really I saw some coach saying that,
- 2:13Speaker 1: you know, the lack of interaction with your players because
- 2:16Speaker 1: you're looking at a iPad or a screen. That's it's
- 2:19Speaker 1: that's no way to coach. But unfortunately we had to
- 2:21Speaker 1: do that. But yeah, this is nothing, you know, it's
- 2:24Speaker 1: we're we're extremely cautious right now. At a matter of fact,
- 2:27Speaker 1: we u I saw where the Cowboys lost a player
- 2:30Speaker 1: and uh, you know, we got a j Ken back today.
- 2:33Speaker 1: But we redid the meeting rooms, we spaced them out
- 2:35Speaker 1: even more. We're just really taking at six ft as
- 2:38Speaker 1: as serious as you can't even the vaccinated guys. Do
- 2:41Speaker 1: you have any concerns? I know it was kind of
- 2:43Speaker 1: circulating on the internet, especially after the Dolphins put two
- 2:46Speaker 1: players on COVID list this morning, concerns about guys having
- 2:50Speaker 1: those three days off going out interacting. Very concerned and
- 2:54Speaker 1: you know, gott to have a little bit of level
- 2:56Speaker 1: of trust that you trust your players out serious this
- 2:58Speaker 1: is and but you also can't ask him to go
- 3:01Speaker 1: close a doorner closet. And so I understand young people
- 3:04Speaker 1: are gold people. I went to the Gator game. So,
- 3:06Speaker 1: but you try to keep your space as best you can.
- 3:09Speaker 1: Later in the week, urban Meyer explaining his approach to
- 3:11Speaker 1: the first game of the season. Certainly in college, let's
- 3:15Speaker 1: a you know, it's it's a march madness. You're a
- 3:18Speaker 1: you know, it's just a little different that, you know,
- 3:21Speaker 1: you can't lose a game in college and professional football,
- 3:24Speaker 1: reality is reality. But yeah, heck yeah, this is a
- 3:26Speaker 1: tone center. This is a center for everything. But it's
- 3:29Speaker 1: also the first game onto the quarterback. In the common
- 3:32Speaker 1: Draft era, starting a nineteen sixty seven number one overall pick,
- 3:36Speaker 1: quarterbacks have four wins, twenty losses, and one tie and
- 3:40Speaker 1: their first career starts combined. The last person to win
- 3:43Speaker 1: his first career start as a number one overall pick
- 3:46Speaker 1: was back in two thousand two David Carr of the
- 3:49Speaker 1: Houston Texans. Usually first overall picks are there for a reason.
- 3:52Speaker 1: Their team was the worst in the league the year before.
- 3:55Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence will make his first career start Sunday against
- 3:58Speaker 1: the Houston Texans and talked about the opponent this week, Um,
- 4:02Speaker 1: just a really sound defense. They don't try to necessarily
- 4:04Speaker 1: trick you. They don't have a bunch of crazy looks,
- 4:06Speaker 1: and you know all these different coverages. They keep it
- 4:09Speaker 1: pretty simple. But the tough thing about that is when
- 4:12Speaker 1: you keep something simple, they everyone's exactly where they're supposed
- 4:14Speaker 1: to be, so it makes those windows tighter. Um, they
- 4:17Speaker 1: do a really good job when they play man coverage
- 4:19Speaker 1: of not giving up big plays. So that'll be a challenge.
- 4:22Speaker 1: Um But definitely definitely, like definitely like what we've seen
- 4:25Speaker 1: from our group. But um, yeah, they do a good
- 4:28Speaker 1: job zone eyes, really good job reading the quarterback. Like
- 4:31Speaker 1: they they forced ten turnovers this preseason, which is, you know,
- 4:34Speaker 1: three games, that's a lot of turnovers. So that's one
- 4:37Speaker 1: thing that jumps out off the page when they're looking
- 4:39Speaker 1: at just their stats. Um, but just the way they
- 4:41Speaker 1: fly around has been has been impressive to watch. Press
- 4:43Speaker 1: conference is available on Jaguars dot com. Un huddled up
- 4:47Speaker 1: with Bucky Brooks Wednesday, Bucky, John Ojan and I explained
- 4:50Speaker 1: Lawrence's breakdown further rush for drop seven, watch the quarterback
- 4:56Speaker 1: and when the makes mistake, catch the ball. It's it's
- 5:00Speaker 1: Tampa two based. It's what they want to do. It
- 5:02Speaker 1: is it is not what the Jaguars want to do.
- 5:04Speaker 1: It's not going to be exotic. It is a smart
- 5:07Speaker 1: thing to play against a rookie quarterback. It's what they
- 5:09Speaker 1: play anyway. But it's a smart thing to play aginst
- 5:11Speaker 1: rookie quarterback because you figure at some point the rookie
- 5:13Speaker 1: quarterback will throw a pass that you can get. If
- 5:16Speaker 1: you're playing man, you may not see that pass. If
- 5:18Speaker 1: you're playing zone, you're supposed to see it. Yeah, I
- 5:20Speaker 1: think giants mill on the hit. He obviously had been
- 5:22Speaker 1: around it for a long time when he was working
- 5:24Speaker 1: with the Coats and he saw Tony John and his
- 5:25Speaker 1: crew win a Super Bowl with Tampa. Two is a
- 5:28Speaker 1: defense that really can confound quarterbacks, even though it's simplistic
- 5:32Speaker 1: in design. It is one of those things where the
- 5:36Speaker 1: defense is betting that the quarterback would not take the
- 5:38Speaker 1: check down over and over and over again over a
- 5:41Speaker 1: sixty minute game. And what they want to do is
- 5:43Speaker 1: they want to make the quarterback pay the price. But
- 5:46Speaker 1: when he gets greedy and tries to force one down
- 5:48Speaker 1: the field, he's gonna throw it into the hands of
- 5:51Speaker 1: awaiting defenders that have their eyes on the quarterback. Trevor
- 5:55Speaker 1: gets it because Trevor talked about they played with zone eyes.
- 5:58Speaker 1: One of the benefits of playing zone cut just you
- 6:00Speaker 1: have your eyes on the quarterback, and in theory, you
- 6:02Speaker 1: should get your hands on more balls because you see
- 6:05Speaker 1: it come out of his hands. And if this is baseball,
- 6:08Speaker 1: you still more bases on the picture than the catcher,
- 6:11Speaker 1: and so the early breaks that you're able to get
- 6:13Speaker 1: by looking at the quarterback should lead to more interceptions.
- 6:16Speaker 1: Trevor has to do a great job of being patient.
- 6:19Speaker 1: He has to be he has to be disciplined when
- 6:21Speaker 1: it comes to his reaes, and he has to be
- 6:24Speaker 1: willing to take the three and four yard game and
- 6:26Speaker 1: hope that his receivers can break a tactical and make
- 6:28Speaker 1: that into a ten yard game. Bucky the base Steeler here,
- 6:31Speaker 1: I didn't think we would have any baseball references. I'm
- 6:34Speaker 1: ready for that. I got it. I was not ready.
- 6:36Speaker 1: I was ready for the show. I was not ready
- 6:39Speaker 1: for that. Oh you didn't know you were hosting with
- 6:42Speaker 1: your own version of Ricky Anderson. Ye, Bucky, Bucky knows baseball.
- 6:47Speaker 1: Did you have his wheels? But know what I got?
- 6:51Speaker 1: I have double Batton gloves in my back pockets and
- 6:54Speaker 1: love that. Huddle up with Bucky Brooks Airs Wednesdays at
- 6:57Speaker 1: four thirty on Jaguars dot Com and Agar's social media channels.
- 7:01Speaker 1: On a Happy Hour Radio Monday, head coach Irban Meyer
- 7:04Speaker 1: makes his regular season debut this week, of course, and
- 7:07Speaker 1: Tony Vaselli and Pete Frisco discussed how Meyer and the
- 7:10Speaker 1: Jaguars handled the pressure cooker of an NFL season. And
- 7:14Speaker 1: I like him out open. He's like us, Tony, like Shave.
- 7:19Speaker 1: He's pretty casual. He likes just hang out. I don't
- 7:23Speaker 1: like that. I'm really interesting to see what he's like
- 7:26Speaker 1: on the sideline during the game and what and when
- 7:29Speaker 1: it now that it counts, how does he hand? I mean,
- 7:33Speaker 1: how does he How does how does this team handled? University?
- 7:36Speaker 1: Because you know, everything's been so good so far, Pete,
- 7:40Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Excitement number one overall pick.
- 7:43Speaker 1: You got one of the best college coaches in the
- 7:45Speaker 1: history of the game of football. As you're head coach,
- 7:49Speaker 1: you're investing a lot of money, there's a ton of energy,
- 7:53Speaker 1: and everything's good and you know, like you know, this
- 7:56Speaker 1: covering the NFL is like that in a lot of camps,
- 7:58Speaker 1: Like everyone feels good this topic, like here we go
- 8:03Speaker 1: and then reality and that first game comes and smacks
- 8:07Speaker 1: you in the face. And sixteen teams aren't a wake
- 8:11Speaker 1: up Monday morning, some Tuesday morning, some one a couple
- 8:15Speaker 1: on Friday, going, Um, that didn't quite go the way
- 8:18Speaker 1: we got. We have some issues to work out. And
- 8:22Speaker 1: but he did have the stress of the quarterback competition
- 8:24Speaker 1: that he already had to deal with. So it's a
- 8:29Speaker 1: great measuring stick right there. Aren't you curious? How? How?
- 8:33Speaker 1: How is the meaning and how he handled it? Because
- 8:35Speaker 1: he I mean, yes, the last time I saw, Yeah,
- 8:39Speaker 1: the last time we saw he just won every game
- 8:41Speaker 1: at o While State. And and he didn't lose much
- 8:44Speaker 1: in Florida. He doesn't know and like, and here's the
- 8:48Speaker 1: other thing. A loss in college football is so much
- 8:52Speaker 1: more impactful than a loss in the NFL, which is
- 8:54Speaker 1: why you got to turn the page right away. And
- 8:57Speaker 1: so how is a college coach? Does he handle at
- 9:00Speaker 1: He's got to become an NFL coach? And I think
- 9:03Speaker 1: he's smart enough that he'll figure that out. But I
- 9:06Speaker 1: think the first week, like if they lost on Sunday,
- 9:09Speaker 1: I don't think he would handle it very well. Now,
- 9:12Speaker 1: Tom didn't handle it very well either, but Tom was.
- 9:15Speaker 1: You gotta give Tom credit because once Monday he got
- 9:19Speaker 1: all of it out. He moved on to the next one.
- 9:21Speaker 1: He figured that out, or we're not on the practical
- 9:24Speaker 1: of us. You needed to get beat up half the
- 9:28Speaker 1: time you needed and you need attitude. It was four
- 9:34Speaker 1: hour rule. Unless Tom didn't like something you were doing
- 9:37Speaker 1: on Wednesday, then it became rule. And if he didn't
- 9:40Speaker 1: like that Thursday, you know, I look, I get it
- 9:44Speaker 1: from that standpoint. I'm talking about here in your head.
- 9:47Speaker 1: You know what I mean. You can't walk around all
- 9:49Speaker 1: sullen the whole week. And I used to figure out
- 9:53Speaker 1: trying and read Tom all the time and say, oh,
- 9:55Speaker 1: he thinks he's winning this week. Like the way he
- 9:56Speaker 1: acted during the week, you could usually get a good
- 9:59Speaker 1: tell on him. But I wonder if urbans that same
- 10:03Speaker 1: kind you know, where you can get a tell that
- 10:04Speaker 1: he put that one behind him and he's already feeling
- 10:07Speaker 1: good about this one. Because I the look he had
- 10:10Speaker 1: on the sideline in New Orleans, Oh my gosh, he
- 10:14Speaker 1: would have thought he was losing it in the Super
- 10:16Speaker 1: Bowl at the fourth quarter. It's gonna be fascinating. I'm
- 10:19Speaker 1: just very curious that. I hope we don't find out
- 10:22Speaker 1: for a while. I hope we got to win them
- 10:23Speaker 1: in Houston. I mean, that's the game that they I
- 10:26Speaker 1: think they should win. Happy Hour Monday airs four to
- 10:28Speaker 1: six pm on Tinto x l a M and Jaguars
- 10:31Speaker 1: Social Media, with a replay from eight to ten pm
- 10:34Speaker 1: on Tinto x l AM and ninety two point five
- 10:36Speaker 1: FM and Jacksonville. Let's now preview Sunday's visit with Pride
- 10:40Speaker 1: of the Jaguars running back Fred Taylor. He joins us
- 10:43Speaker 1: each week on Countdown to kick Off on the Jaguars
- 10:45Speaker 1: Radio Network, and this week we got his thoughts on
- 10:48Speaker 1: the debut for Urban Meyer and quarterback Trevor Lawrence. A
- 10:51Speaker 1: lot of folks say, hey, it's NFL, it's the first game.
- 10:54Speaker 1: There's six team more after this and and all that. Well,
- 10:57Speaker 1: it's important to get off on the right foot for
- 10:59Speaker 1: these two guys, right They want to make a really
- 11:01Speaker 1: good impression right out of the gate. Yeah, I totally agree.
- 11:04Speaker 1: You know, you don't look at you don't invest and
- 11:06Speaker 1: look at your stock and say, well, okay, I lost
- 11:09Speaker 1: out of the gate. You gotta make up thirty to recover,
- 11:13Speaker 1: you know. And I look at the NFL the same way.
- 11:16Speaker 1: Once you put yourself in the hole, you always scratching
- 11:19Speaker 1: out of it. You have more opportunities to get back
- 11:22Speaker 1: on track, but still, you know, you know, you never
- 11:25Speaker 1: want to have that. It's okay mindset. You know, I
- 11:29Speaker 1: believe in urgency right now, and uh, I think the
- 11:33Speaker 1: fan base ship believe in that. We should all be realistic.
- 11:36Speaker 1: You want to win now, especially for this organization that
- 11:40Speaker 1: they've been trying to put some pieces of the puzzle together.
- 11:44Speaker 1: We tend to make excuses as a young team or
- 11:46Speaker 1: this is young position. You gotta win. It's a team
- 11:50Speaker 1: for a reason. The group has to come together and
- 11:53Speaker 1: put their best foot forward each and every Sunday. And uh,
- 11:57Speaker 1: and I really think that having a division and opponent
- 12:01Speaker 1: out the gate makes it even more important to win now.
- 12:05Speaker 1: So it starts today. The full interview airs about twenty
- 12:08Speaker 1: minutes before Sunday's one o'clock kickoff on Countdown to Kickoff
- 12:11Speaker 1: on the Jaguars Radio Network, and Fred will be with

- 13:31Speaker 1: Podcast returned with defensive tackle Malcolm Brown. Give us that
- 13:35Speaker 1: five star rating. Let's move to a look at the
- 13:37Speaker 1: big story surrounding the Houston Texans all off season and
- 13:41Speaker 1: now into the regular season. What happens with quarterback to
- 13:44Speaker 1: Shaun Watson. Ashton Sullivan, John Oshan, and Brian Sexton sat
- 13:47Speaker 1: down with Houston Chronicle NFL writer John mcclan to find out,
- 13:51Speaker 1: All right, Johnson, I'm just gonna throw it out there,
- 13:53Speaker 1: what the heck is going on with the Shawn Watson.
- 13:55Speaker 1: I know he's not playing on Sunday? Is he ever
- 13:57Speaker 1: going to play for the Texans? The Jaguars have not
- 14:00Speaker 1: faced well against him. Can Jacksonville here take a cide
- 14:03Speaker 1: relief that they might not see him in Houston anymore?
- 14:05Speaker 1: As I've been writing, broadcasting, tweeting, texting since March, Watson
- 14:10Speaker 1: will never take another snap with the Texans. And whenever
- 14:14Speaker 1: somebody makes them an offer that general manager Nick for
- 14:17Speaker 1: Sarrio Watts, they'll trade him. Nobody has done that. With
- 14:20Speaker 1: all the two civil lawsuits, investigations by the NFL, Houston
- 14:25Speaker 1: Police grand jury couldn't die FBI is looking into it.
- 14:29Speaker 1: Nobody is gonna make an offer they want under those circumstances,
- 14:34Speaker 1: and he's being carried on active roster. He will be
- 14:37Speaker 1: a healthy branch every week. And it would behoove them
- 14:40Speaker 1: to wait until the next draft and uh then trading,
- 14:44Speaker 1: because then they know where teams are gonna finish with.
- 14:46Speaker 1: Teams have multiple number one picks. Their ultimate goal is
- 14:51Speaker 1: to get three ones and two twos. You can spread
- 14:53Speaker 1: that out over three years. So that's been the package
- 14:57Speaker 1: they want, and they would have gotten it before the draft,
- 15:00Speaker 1: but then the lawsuit started piling up. I've heard the
- 15:02Speaker 1: word fire sale with the Texans this week. This roster
- 15:06Speaker 1: is not really done moving around. I guess, uh, what
- 15:09Speaker 1: else do you expect this season? How many moves would
- 15:11Speaker 1: this team make to keep trading? Well, first of all,
- 15:14Speaker 1: fire signals were people that are clueless about what's going
- 15:17Speaker 1: on here. They traded Bradley Roby, who had who was
- 15:20Speaker 1: suspended the last five games last year and kept home
- 15:24Speaker 1: on a disciplinary reason and was not playing this year,
- 15:28Speaker 1: so they traded him there. In the process of trading
- 15:32Speaker 1: him to New Orleans and they bringing players for the
- 15:35Speaker 1: practice squad, so they've done just the opposite of the
- 15:38Speaker 1: fire sale, and uh, going back, they could have gotten young.
- 15:41Speaker 1: They could have traded a lot of veterans and loaded
- 15:43Speaker 1: up with draft choices and undrafted free agents. They only
- 15:47Speaker 1: have five rookies on the team, you know, they have
- 15:49Speaker 1: thirty one new new players. And that was the plan
- 15:53Speaker 1: for Necessario and David Culley. Both are in their position
- 15:56Speaker 1: for the first time. They wanted to establish a culture,
- 16:00Speaker 1: they wanted a mindset with their players, and they thought
- 16:03Speaker 1: that's much easier to do with veterans who come from
- 16:06Speaker 1: teams where they've done that, established that foundation, and then
- 16:11Speaker 1: you'll start to get younger next year when they finally
- 16:14Speaker 1: have another number one pick and they have all their
- 16:16Speaker 1: picks and probably multiple picks for DeShawn Watson. Jack's drivetime
- 16:20Speaker 1: here is Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday mornings at ten o'clock
- 16:23Speaker 1: on Jaguars dot Com and the Jags social media channels.
- 16:26Speaker 1: Now back to the Jaguars and let's hear from the coordinators.
- 16:29Speaker 1: Offensive coordinator Darryl Bebel has the offense ready to roll
- 16:32Speaker 1: this Sunday. We've heard about Trevor Lawrence of course most
- 16:35Speaker 1: of the offseason, but he also needs some weapons to
- 16:38Speaker 1: throw the football to. D J. Chart Jr. Missed much
- 16:41Speaker 1: of training camp with a hairline fracture in the middle
- 16:43Speaker 1: finger of his right hand. It is a big year
- 16:46Speaker 1: for Chart personally, his fourth season and a contract year.
- 16:49Speaker 1: Bebell explained to what Chart does for the Jaguars offense.
- 16:53Speaker 1: I mean it's huge for us. I mean, he's he's
- 16:55Speaker 1: a veteran player, you know, he's he's he's a Pro
- 16:57Speaker 1: Bowl player, brings great experience to us. I mean, he
- 16:59Speaker 1: he really has been working his tail off, you know,
- 17:01Speaker 1: and it's unfortunate that he that he you know, hurt
- 17:03Speaker 1: that finger because he missed some of the time. But
- 17:06Speaker 1: these last I would say three days, Um, he's really
- 17:09Speaker 1: kind of hit his stride again. He's got his speedback.
- 17:12Speaker 1: He looks really good moving down the field. So I
- 17:15Speaker 1: mean I'm decided with him and Marvin and uh Leavisca.
- 17:18Speaker 1: On the defensive side, it feels like everybody's fired up
- 17:21Speaker 1: to see what this defense might look like Sunday. Defensive
- 17:24Speaker 1: coordinator Joe Cullen has plenty of tricks so his sleeve.
- 17:27Speaker 1: We've used a lot of different packages. Um, you know,
- 17:30Speaker 1: sometimes you just wait for the right opportunity but we
- 17:33Speaker 1: get we'll have someone five down line, we have someone
- 17:35Speaker 1: with four down line, some with three down line, some
- 17:37Speaker 1: with two safety, some with three safeties. So really over
- 17:40Speaker 1: the years, just just we we've adapted and used that
- 17:44Speaker 1: in certain situations and basically like sometimes you get tied
- 17:47Speaker 1: into certain personnel groupings, but basically you see who what
- 17:51Speaker 1: players would fit. Well if you do use that package,
- 17:54Speaker 1: you don't want to just have it just to have it.
- 17:55Speaker 1: But uh, I mean you use certain packages and sometimes
- 17:59Speaker 1: you have a dying sometimes you have like a quarter
- 18:01Speaker 1: with all dvs no backers. So it's just all relative
- 18:05Speaker 1: to who you plan. Head coach Urban Meyer sat down
- 18:08Speaker 1: for the first Urban Meyer Show of the regular season
- 18:10Speaker 1: Thursday night and discussed a few different items, including a
- 18:13Speaker 1: revamped Jaguars defense, the Texans running game, and Tyrod Taylor.
- 18:18Speaker 1: It's time to unleash this Jaguars revamped defense. Joe Cullen
- 18:22Speaker 1: is in his first opportunity as a defensive coordinator eating
- 18:25Speaker 1: on him for a long time though, and he talked
- 18:27Speaker 1: today about the different packages and different personnel groupings that
- 18:31Speaker 1: are available in options for this Jaguars defense. I'm curious
- 18:35Speaker 1: as an offensive minded coach, yourself. How challenging is that
- 18:39Speaker 1: for the opposition to prepare for so many packages and
- 18:42Speaker 1: groupings that a defense can throw out. Well, that was
- 18:45Speaker 1: one of the reasons I hired Joe. Joe I respect
- 18:47Speaker 1: him as a coach and and I really thought I
- 18:49Speaker 1: wanted him on our staff. I knew I wanted him
- 18:51Speaker 1: on our staff. I've almost studied the Baltimore Ravens defense.
- 18:54Speaker 1: I've had great respect. You look at the lineage of
- 18:57Speaker 1: who's coached in that defense over the year is tremendous
- 19:00Speaker 1: coaches and their style is very hard to prepare for it,
- 19:03Speaker 1: Like you just said, many different blitz packages, personnel groupings
- 19:07Speaker 1: and you'll see everything. Uh. And then I interviewed Joe
- 19:10Speaker 1: and typical you don't want to stereotape people, but typical
- 19:13Speaker 1: D line coaches are really they live in a box.
- 19:16Speaker 1: They live in that defensive front, but they don't really
- 19:18Speaker 1: understand the whole defense. And he kind of blew myself.
- 19:21Speaker 1: And Chris ashes an interview as well and blew sway
- 19:24Speaker 1: as far as his knowledge of that defense. And that's
- 19:26Speaker 1: the defense I wanted. So we went with them. And UH,
- 19:29Speaker 1: to answer your question, it's very difficult urban this week
- 19:32Speaker 1: you're facing a Texans offense that when you just look
- 19:35Speaker 1: at the roster, anytime the team's got five running backs
- 19:37Speaker 1: on the active roster, you probably can expect one thing.
- 19:40Speaker 1: They're gonna come out and try to run the football
- 19:42Speaker 1: against your defense. That's one of our strengths. Of the
- 19:45Speaker 1: one thing you look at the what consistently happened in
- 19:47Speaker 1: the preseason as we stopped the run for three straight games.
- 19:51Speaker 1: You know, we we do it a ride of ways,
- 19:53Speaker 1: and number one is we load the box, so we're
- 19:55Speaker 1: gonna put a lot of pressure on the corners. And
- 19:57Speaker 1: that's one of the reasons we went out and got
- 19:59Speaker 1: Tyson in the draft s and Campbell and Shaq Griffin
- 20:02Speaker 1: in free agency, and then we got ray j Ray
- 20:04Speaker 1: Sean Jenkins. We had to rebuild that back end of
- 20:07Speaker 1: our defense, and because we knew that the style of
- 20:10Speaker 1: defense we're gonna play, there's gonna be a lot of
- 20:12Speaker 1: pressure on those guys. They've got a veteran quarterback and
- 20:15Speaker 1: Tyrod Taylor, he hasn't had a whole lot of starts recently.
- 20:19Speaker 1: What do you see from him and what do you
- 20:20Speaker 1: expect from him? Do you go back and obviously break
- 20:22Speaker 1: down the film when he was a starter Buffalo, maybe
- 20:24Speaker 1: even a little bit of film from the preseason when
- 20:26Speaker 1: he was with the Chargers, because there's plenty of film
- 20:29Speaker 1: to watch on him. You just might have to go
- 20:31Speaker 1: back quite a few years. Yeah, it's ironic. I watched
- 20:33Speaker 1: a lot of the Buffalo because I interviewed a coach
- 20:36Speaker 1: from that staff back when Tyrod had was exceptional, I mean,
- 20:40Speaker 1: had great success. It was true spread offense. And that's
- 20:44Speaker 1: what scares me because I know what athletic quarterbacks can do.
- 20:47Speaker 1: You know, they have not run him as much of late.
- 20:50Speaker 1: He's a little older now than he was with the Buffalo,
- 20:52Speaker 1: but he is a guy that I've always had tremendous
- 20:54Speaker 1: respect for. And any anytime a guy can hurt you
- 20:57Speaker 1: with his legs, that's just historically in college and pro
- 21:01Speaker 1: that's a tough guy to defend. He can do both
- 21:03Speaker 1: run and throw. Watching the last preseason game that he
- 21:06Speaker 1: played in, there were a couple of plays in where
- 21:08Speaker 1: he extended the play, got outside the pocket, end up running.
- 21:11Speaker 1: But he's been a guy that's been hurting people in
- 21:12Speaker 1: the past by extending plays. And he had one play
- 21:15Speaker 1: in particular, and I'm not sure if you would remember
- 21:17Speaker 1: Urban where he he gets pressure from a little et
- 21:20Speaker 1: game on his right side and he gets or he
- 21:22Speaker 1: gets pressure from the right tackle getting pushed into his lap.
- 21:25Speaker 1: He actually jumps back lands on his right legs somehow
- 21:28Speaker 1: ends up going all the way to his left. And
- 21:30Speaker 1: I just went to myself, there's not many people that
- 21:32Speaker 1: are athletically on this planet that can do that. He
- 21:36Speaker 1: actually looked like he got hurt. Yeah, you know, I
- 21:38Speaker 1: saw the play too, and I slowed it down. I thought,
- 21:40Speaker 1: you know, most people would probably JP would probably blow
- 21:43Speaker 1: his a c l out there. He rallied back and
- 21:47Speaker 1: made a play. And so that's what that's what scares you.
- 21:49Speaker 1: And that's where your discipline of your defensive line. You
- 21:52Speaker 1: hear this quite often standy rush lanes. You know, there's
- 21:54Speaker 1: certain quarterbacks that are statues and you can lose contain
- 21:58Speaker 1: and this guy you cannot do that. You gotta danor rush. Thanks.
- 22:01Speaker 1: Urban must have been a deep dive into my athletic past,
- 22:05Speaker 1: and maybe not a deep dive after all. The Urban
