Ep. 22: Recapping Strengths and Weaknesses Week 2, Preview Texans Matchup | Jags A.M. Podcast · The Jacksonville Jaguars Official Podcast Network

• 0:05
  Speaker 1: On Monday.
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: We talked a lot about the issues that this team has,
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: but we still have to be confident going into Week three.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: So what are you most confident in about this team
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: as they face the Texas?
• 0:14
  Speaker 3: The quarterback, the offense as well.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: Welcome in to jag Dam on this Wednesday and Kai
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: Nannie Stephens in here with Brian Sexton, John Oser, and
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: as I mentioned, we're turning the page today. We're going
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: to talk positive all day on Wednesday. I've decided because
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: we kind of went in on it a little bit
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: on Monday and the sky is not falling. Things are
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: okay because you guys still mention what you're most confident
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: in is the issue we were most concerned about.
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: When you said that was your question, I thought, where
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: do I want to go with this? Do you want
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: to talk about the linebackers? Don't want to talk about
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: the secondary, the defense that's played so well, Evan Ingram,
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: the receivers. There's really a little bit on the interior
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: of the offensive line, there's some concern, But other than that,
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: I think this team can turn it around pretty quickly.
• 1:10
  Speaker 4: Well.
• 1:11
  Speaker 5: History shows us that these players on offense are good.
• 1:16
  Speaker 5: Doug Peterson's offense over the course of time and the
• 1:20
  Speaker 5: Chiefs offense. Frankly, it's very similar. Produces, it works. I
• 1:24
  Speaker 5: think Trevor Lawrence is a good player. We've seen that
• 1:28
  Speaker 5: so over seventeen games. They are going to be a
• 1:32
  Speaker 5: good offense.
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: At least. Neither one of us, said Logan Cook, even
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: though he's the best punter in the league. So who
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: wouldn't have confidence in him? But there was a time
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: in twenty twenty twenty one where he would have said,
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: hey man, Logan Cook, best player on the team.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: It's dire times when you're going to the punter. Although
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: we do love you, Logan Cook. No nothing against him.
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: We love you, and we love the banana ball and
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: all of that. Let's get into our big things today,
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: because why not.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: We're turning the page. That's our first big.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: Thing today because, as I mentioned, what happened in week
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: two against the Chiefs hopefully is an isolated incident. Yes
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: you have to watch the tape, Yes you have to
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: learn from it, but we got to move on.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: Mentally.
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: That team meets to move on too, because, as we discussed,
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: at certain points, if you don't, you know, turn the
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: page and move on to the next game you have
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: ahead of you, then things can spiral, and that's when
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: we would become really concerned. Brian, do you feel that
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: the team is in the right place to move forward
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: this week? And I kind of put this behind them.
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: I do, And you know, I talked on Monday a
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: little bit about how I thought last week that Doug
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: Peterson came into his Wednesday press conference, he wasn't himself.
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: He was absolutely himself on Monday. There's an old action
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: in the NFL. Don't let him beat you twice. You know,
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: it's one thing to get beat, especially by the defending
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: Super Bowl champs, but don't let the hangover of a
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: poor performance put you in peril of losing to the
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: Texans the next week. And it was clear to me
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: from the moment that Doug started talking on Monday that
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: he had his focus and thus the team's focus in
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: the right place.
• 2:51
  Speaker 5: I think they are. I also think it's not It's
• 2:56
  Speaker 5: not something that you can assume. And I guess what
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: I mean is this last year they were two and
• 3:02
  Speaker 5: six and then sort of had to punch their way
• 3:05
  Speaker 5: back into the postseason. So at no point have they
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: really been considered a good team, and then sort of
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: had a body blow and had an early season.
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: This is new form.
• 3:18
  Speaker 5: I guess my point. They're favored in this game. They
• 3:20
  Speaker 5: believe they ought to win. They're playing a young team
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: that they quote ought to beat. They have been in
• 3:26
  Speaker 5: a situation before, and it's a division game, so it's big.
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: I hate the word trap game, but if anything fit,
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: you know, not trap, whatever, but they have never really
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: done this thing where they've sort of proven okay, we're better.
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: Trap would fit, though. I mean, I think trap would
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: have fit this week if if they had beaten Sure,
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: if they had beaten the Chiefs, then you could say
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: there's a trap. I think if anything else, it's the
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: reverse of that. This week there is a hyper focus
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: with the loss of Kansasity. And look, we said this
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: on Monday. It's one thing to lose to Kansasity. They're
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: the defending world champions. Patrick Mahomes is the best player
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: in the league. There's no disgrace in that. The hangover
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: effect here is that the offense just looks so out
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: of sync, and we expected the offense to not look
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: that way, right. We didn't expect them to lose the
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: weight that they did. But John, I think you wrote
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: this a couple of times. You know, they had a
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: shot with five minutes left in the red zone of
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: the Chiefs and they just didn't get it done. It
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: wasn't like they weren't even in a position to win
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: the game, and they played very poorly on offense. So
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: there's a lot of reasons to believe that they will
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: be ready to go.
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: Good teams handle this thing.
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: Yes, absolutely they do.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: It will be very telling. Our next big thing is
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: South setup. We mentioned it a little bit, but this
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: is the second divisional game in three weeks that they've had.
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: So these games, you know, they almost count double, right,
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: So these are going to set them up to get
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: where they want to be.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: In the postseason.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: If you can win your divisional games, the other stuff
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: will come. And that is part of why we don't
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: want them overlooking this week, John, I know that sometimes
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: the Texans, I guess a division opponent, anybody has a
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: little bit of a buggaboo with them, But things on
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: paid should play out well again Houston.
• 5:02
  Speaker 5: Well, as I said Monday, I'm not a big believer
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: that teams in the past have had the Jaguars number,
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: because in the past, everybody had the Jaguars numbers the players,
• 5:13
  Speaker 5: they haven't been as good as teams. This is so
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: that sort of thing I don't think really applies to
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: this bunch. I think this goes back to what the
• 5:20
  Speaker 5: theme of the week is. It's a game that everybody
• 5:23
  Speaker 5: would say, and even players they are, they ought to win.
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: You ought to handle business.
• 5:29
  Speaker 5: It ought to There's no easy games in the NFL,
• 5:32
  Speaker 5: but you ought to know it.
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: By five minutes left, that is the better team. You think.
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: That's what they are, It's what they're supposed to be.
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: They got to do it.
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: Now. Here's the hang up. This was a game the
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: Jaguars were supposed to win last year in Week five
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: and Davis Mills as their starting quarterback. By all accounts,
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: they were not as talented, but they're not as talented
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: now they weren't then, and the Jaguars couldn't score a
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: touchdown and lost thirteen to six. The quarterback had a
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: terrible day. He made an awful throw into the end zone,
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: one that probably got him focused on playing better football. So, yes,
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: the Jaguer should win this game. They should have won
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: this game last year. This john is a very big
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: test in the sense that this is that game, win
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: the games. If you're a good team, you win the
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: games you're supposed to. And this might be the first
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: time we've seen that.
• 6:22
  Speaker 5: I think they're a different team than they were this
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: time last year. They got to show expectations.
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: Our final big thing is going to be anger management,
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: part of turning the pages, using that frustration that we
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: saw a lot of in the locker room and postgame
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: with Doug Peterson as well, turning that frustration into production
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: and turning that into something because you can't just be
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: mad about it.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: You have to fix it, right.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: So, Brian, we talked a lot about how they're able
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: to do that with Doug Peterson at the Helm, because
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: I think he's that kind of coach that can use
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: that to motivate his team.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: Look at and I don't want to intimate that they're
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: not working hard and they're not working long hours, but
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: you know that excellence is generally achieved by doing a
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: little bit more than others think is wise, right, by
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: caring a little bit more than other people believe is necessary.
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: It's that little bit more. Twenty more minutes on the
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: iPad instead of twenty minutes on Instagram, right, probably makes
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: a difference this week in somebody's game. It's not about
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: playing angry. It's about using the frustration to be smarter,
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: to do a little bit extra, something a little bit
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: different in your preparation that gives you back that focus
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: and gives you the edge just a little bit. Right.
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: There's a great motivational speaker, Anthony Robbins, and he talks
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: about two millimeters. It's just two millimeters on a turn
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: of the wrench makes an amazing amount of difference for them.
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: This week, it's about finding the two millimeters and getting
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: sharpened again.
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna kind of go the other way. I think
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: it is necessary to channel it.
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: I think Doug's challenge this week a little bit is
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: they If there was a theme out of the Chiefs game,
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: it's that he thought they were maybe trying a little
• 7:58
  Speaker 5: too hard at the big moments to make a play
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: to be the guy. I think offensively, at least, it
• 8:05
  Speaker 5: very much sounded to me on Monday like his emphasis
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: this week is going to.
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: Be, Look, we've got the players to do this.
• 8:12
  Speaker 5: Everybody doesn't have to score an eighty or a touchdown
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: on every play, Trevor, you don't necessarily have to score
• 8:19
  Speaker 5: that touchdown in the red zone. You can hand it
• 8:21
  Speaker 5: to Travis four times. At no point did you get
• 8:25
  Speaker 5: a vibe from Doug on Monday that they didn't care.
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: It was more, look, we're good. Just let the game
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: come to you.
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: And what you just said could be the two millimeters right,
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: figuring out to hand the ball off four times, whatever
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: that might be.
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: Yes, just small things, little things, execution as we said.
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: Right, and or calming down right yep, knowing that you're
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: good as opposed to we got to go beat the
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: Chiefs so that everybody knows that we're good.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: No overreacting this week when they take on the Texans.
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: All right, we're here on jag Zam presented by Jet
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: Home Loans. Stay with us, coming back, We're going to
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: talk about the AFC South and what's going on around
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: the division. For ten years, Dreambinder's Homes has been proud
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: to call themselves the official homebuilder jas Wars. Visit Dreamfindershomes

• 9:19
  Speaker 2: Welcome back into jags Am here in the Hyundai Studios
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: presented by Jet Home Loans today and we're going to
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: go around the AFC South because we want to keep
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: you guys up to day and on what's going on
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: in the division so that you can kind of see
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: where the Jags stand with things. So there's three teams
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: that are one in one in the division right now,
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: and there's one team that's ozho and two and that
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: would be Houston, the team coming to town. So, Brian,
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: when you look at the Texans, we're going to get
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: a little bit more into the specific game plan later
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: in the week, but they're owing to They've got a
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: rookie quarterback.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: What's been going on with them?
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: Well, look, they've fallen behind by double digits in both
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: of their first two games, to Baltimore last week to Indianapolis.
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: They don't have the vertical playmakers that we've all come
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: to know in Houston, and when they fallen behind, they've
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: had to abandon the run and it's left CJ. Stroud
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: to throw the ball. John. He threw the ball forty
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: four times in the lost to Baltimore. Look thrown forty
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: times for rookie is a formula for loss, and then
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: forty seven last week. He's completing about sixty six percent
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: of his passes and he has no interceptions. So he's
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: doing some good things. It's just he's found himself in
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: a position where he's had to do it all himself,
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: and that's tough to do in this league.
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: Yeah, all indications are that he's the real deal. They
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: think they found their guy. The issue, the main issue
• 10:33
  Speaker 5: there is they feel like they're probably a year away
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: in terms of draft, in terms of free agency, from
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: sort of getting back on the plane where they have
• 10:41
  Speaker 5: a chance to compete. The second issue is of their
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: offensive line. They have one starter healthy right now that
• 10:48
  Speaker 5: they've got projected, and it's sometimes you see that and
• 10:52
  Speaker 5: they're playing okay with this bunch. They're giving up a
• 10:55
  Speaker 5: lot of his on the quarterback and a lot of sacks.
• 10:57
  Speaker 5: There was a fumble, a very key fumble last week
• 10:59
  Speaker 5: for stra This is the time where the Jaguars need
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: to take advantage of this and feel like the stronger team.
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: He's been sacked eleven times, the most in the league,
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: and he stumbled three times and lost two of those.
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: So they have extra draft picks and cap room from
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: the Deshaun Watson trade in the next year. It won't
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: take long. He looks like he might be the real deal, too.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: Time to start building around him.
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: We'll get into a little bit of the rookie quarterbacks
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: in the division later on in the show. We're going
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: to go to the Colts now, who got a win
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: against the Texans last week, and they did it without
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: Anthony Richardson for much of that game because he left
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: with a concussion. Went to the concussion protocol and Gardner Minshew,
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: our old friend was in the game, and they were
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: able to tick down the Texans and get a win.
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: So they're at one in one as well.
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: John.
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: Is Anthony Richardson going to deal with some of those
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: issues being a running quarterback? Is this going to be
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: part of the problem or can he adapt to the
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: NFL style and protect himself a little bit more?
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: Well?
• 11:50
  Speaker 5: Yeah, Trevor after the game in the opener said, hey,
• 11:54
  Speaker 5: protect yourself.
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: I'm summarizing.
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: I wasn't there, but.
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: This is a league of big, strong, fast, defensive players. Uh. Historically,
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: when quarterbacks.
• 12:08
  Speaker 5: Puts themselves in position to get hit a lot, it
• 12:12
  Speaker 5: over time shortens their career. This is a little bit different.
• 12:15
  Speaker 5: He's gotten hurt twice in two games. Yeah, probably a
• 12:19
  Speaker 5: little bit of flukey in that. You can't say, okay, well,
• 12:20
  Speaker 5: that's gonna happen all the time. Guys have played this
• 12:23
  Speaker 5: way and played ten or eleven years. But it's one
• 12:27
  Speaker 5: reason the league over time, you know, typically likes guys
• 12:32
  Speaker 5: who stand in the pocket.
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: Even in this day of of of of.
• 12:35
  Speaker 5: Running quarterbacks, teams would still prefer a guy who can
• 12:39
  Speaker 5: protect himself because of the longevity of the position. It's
• 12:41
  Speaker 5: changing a little bit, but deep down in the gut
• 12:44
  Speaker 5: of this league, you you always get worried when your quarterback.
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: Takes a lot of hits. Uh.
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: Mitschew came in, as you mentioned, it was eleven to fourteen.
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: I mean, typical Minshew. He's not gonna throw the ball
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: down the field, but he completed it enough passes and
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: took advantage of the league that they have. Uh. Teams
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: know how to prepare for Gardner. Minshew very different than
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: Anthony Richardson. So if the Colts, who are built around
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: Richardson have to rely on Minshew, they're going to struggle.
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: They just don't. They just aren't built to be that
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: team right now. Although Shane Steichen said he was very
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: impressed with Minshew, and it's hard to argue. I mean,
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: Minch's a guy who comes in and he gets the
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: job done. In situations where it looks bleak, you lose
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: your starting quarterback.
• 13:24
  Speaker 5: There was a feeling up there that if Minshew had
• 13:26
  Speaker 5: played all season and started, they're probably a seven win
• 13:29
  Speaker 5: team and probably a five win team with Richardson, you
• 13:32
  Speaker 5: you know, he's a little more.
• 13:33
  Speaker 4: Ready to be okay.
• 13:34
  Speaker 5: Now, it's just that Richardson they think has the ability
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: to be great long term.
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: So why Dylan Gardner has that great long.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: Term and he needs the reps for sure.
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: Hopefully gets back on the field quickly, and then we're
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: going to head over to the Titans now because they
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: are one in one as well. They came back against
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: the Chargers to get their first win of the season.
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: As they went into that game oh to one, Tannehill
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: bounced back. Obviously, they kept him in town because they
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: want to kind of keep this all going. Ryan, we
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: talked about this, but Henry not exactly that. Derrick Henry
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: were just same.
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: No, they've got to have Tannehill. It appears tanner Hill
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: led the league last week in yards per attempt. He
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: was over ten point three yards per attempt and led
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: them down. If you have played very well a week
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: after throwing three interceptions in their loss to the Saints.
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: The problem for the Titans is going to be do
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: they have the guns the receivers to be able to
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: get down the field like that. Derrick Henry is second
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: in the league in rushing attempts, but he is thirty
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: fifth in the league in yards per attempt. So you
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: can see that maybe all the years of all the
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: carries are starting to wear on him. You know, in
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: his career, he's never averaged below four point two yards
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: per carry, so three point five is pretty low for him.
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: If the Titans are going to compete, they're going to
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: need their quarterback. They can get some days from Derrick Henry,
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: but if they don't have Tannehill, it appears that they're
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: going to struggle.
• 14:51
  Speaker 5: Yeah. I always say count these guys at John Peril.
• 14:55
  Speaker 5: I mean, everybody sort of said at the beginning of
• 14:58
  Speaker 5: the season the Jaguars, we're gonna run away with this division.
• 15:02
  Speaker 4: I really bought into that.
• 15:05
  Speaker 5: I get that maybe Derrick Henry isn't Dereck Henry superman.
• 15:10
  Speaker 5: They beat the Chargers last week, and I think the
• 15:13
  Speaker 5: Chargers are good. They figure out a way to win.
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: The Jaguars are gonna need to get a double digit
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: number to be away from this tame this year.
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: The key for them is their quarterback playing well. And
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: if he does, it'll it'll give Derick Henry a chance
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: to have some room to run.
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: Seems like a coin flip though, whether we're gonna see
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: good Tannehill or bad Tannahill.
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: The says, so we'll have thirty five years old.
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll have to see all right, Stay with us

  Speaker 2: presented by Price dot Com. John, I know you love
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: the word trap game, but how's that involved in you
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: this or that today?
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: Well? Is this a trap game?
• 16:45
  Speaker 5: Which or I think it's the other word I hate
• 16:49
  Speaker 5: with a statement game is you know, I don't like
• 16:52
  Speaker 5: either one, but I do believe if you can call
• 16:55
  Speaker 5: anything a division statement, Brian, I think this might be
• 16:58
  Speaker 5: a week to do that. To me, this is a
• 17:00
  Speaker 5: game good teams win if you're going to control your division.
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: This is the kind of game you get early. You're
• 17:06
  Speaker 5: playing at home. He's a team you ought to beat.
• 17:09
  Speaker 5: It just ought to be one of those twenty eight thirteen.
• 17:13
  Speaker 5: You're not worried about it in the in the last
• 17:16
  Speaker 5: five minutes of the game. If it doesn't go that way,
• 17:18
  Speaker 5: it's not a reason to panic. But that's what you'd
• 17:20
  Speaker 5: like to see out of this team that you believe
• 17:22
  Speaker 5: is going to be, that you believe is on the upswing,
• 17:26
  Speaker 5: that you believe is going to be one of those
• 17:27
  Speaker 5: teams moving forward, those kind of teams do that this week.
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: I know you don't like the idea. Also, I don't
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: like very much. No I know of a team having
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: the other team's number, but the Texans have. I mean,
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: in two thousand and two they came in as an
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: expansion team and Jermaine Lewis returned to punt for a
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: touchdown and the expansion Texans beat the Jaguars in their
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: first ever meeting. And then, of course, last year, there
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: was no reason why the Jaguars should lose to Davis
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: Mills and that bunch of guys, but they did. So
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: there have been moments where it's happened. So I'm gonna
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: say that this is a Yeah, I don't like trap
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: game out there's a division statement, and it better be mean.
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: I'm the guy who said I think the Jags sweep
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: the division in my hot take before the season. Right,
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: you don't need to kill them. You don't need to
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: win by thirty seven points to you know, to establish it.
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: But come out win the ball game. Don't make it close,
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: you know, don't be in the fourth quarter wondering, hey,
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: we're gonna get this one or not.
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: I think it was later in the year.
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: I might go a trap game because I think sometimes
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: these division opponents can sneak up on you a little
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: bit when it's a game you're supposed to win. But
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: I think because we're only in the third week, I'll
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: go a statement win and I think hopefully they can
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: show their best version of their offense, so that we
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: have high hopes heading into London.
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: If it's a trap game after a loss, you got
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: a good.
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: Team, let's hope. So I think they're good, Brian, what's
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: here and this or that for this week?
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: Well, which quarterback would you rather have? The Jaguars will
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: see the two rookies in the division in the first
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: three weeks, and we saw Anthony Richardson and John You
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: alluded to him. His traits, his physical characteristics give him
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: the chance to be great. And we saw a very
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: limited game planner opening day. The executed it pretty well
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: and he's higg and fast and guys have to account
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: for him when he starts to get outside the pocket.
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: And then you've got CJ. Stroud, who is by all
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: accounts of pocket passer. You know, scrambled three times last
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: week for a grand total of one yard. It's not
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: what he wants to do. He's a guy who can
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: stand back there. He's sixty six percent accurate in terms
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: of his completion percentage and seems very comfortable there. So
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: which of these two quarterbacks do you think has a
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: better chance long term to be that guy that gets
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: his team into the playoffs.
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: Of Stroud without Quick.
• 19:32
  Speaker 5: I mean, but I'm a pocket passer guy, so I
• 19:36
  Speaker 5: think Straud is out of question because I think he'll
• 19:39
  Speaker 5: be healthy for the long term and he's already sixty
• 19:42
  Speaker 5: six percent under the dress he's been in all indications
• 19:46
  Speaker 5: or he's he's on his way to being that, And
• 19:52
  Speaker 5: I think with Richardson has a lot of questions.
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: And that's just a gamble, right, Like Anthony Richardson, we
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: don't know, we haven't seen a ton of him, and
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: now he's been hurt in these two games so far
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: in the NFL season. So I would like to be
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: a gambling woman and pick Richardson, but I think I'm
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: gonna Well.
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: The one thing it's worthy of pointing out is that
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: Richardson isn't an offense like Jalen Hurts. If you saw
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: the Vikings Eagles game last Thursday night, when they couldn't
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: get the passing game going, AJ Brown was out of sync.
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: They just started handing the ball off and DeAndre Swift
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: had a big day, and when the Vikings collapsed on Swift,
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: well here comes Jalen Hurts. I mean, I do think
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: that the Colts have an opportunity to have something. I
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: don't know how long it will last if you can't
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: stay healthy, But I like Richardson. I'm intrigued by him.
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: It would be so cool to see them if they
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: had a running game going right now with the Colts going, we.
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: Might we might see that in October, because yeah, that's
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: when the running back Jonathan Taylor is back. He'll be
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: back in action. You would think somewhere.
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: It'll be playing somewhere.
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: When we see them, Yes, September fifteenth.
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: Yes, okay, let's hope, so all right for my list
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: or that this week? We want to see the offense
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: bounce back. But who would you like to see a
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: bigger day from on Sundays? At the running backs or
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: the wide receivers. Now we're kind of getting on both
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: sides of the issue the other day. But Brian, when
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: you look at that, which one do you want to see?
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: Running backs? I want to see the running game get started.
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: Fred Taylor, of course, he's always going to want to
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: see the running game. But he and I had a
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: long conversation about this on Sunday afternoon, and he said,
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: why have they given up the run? With an offensive
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: line that is struggling to keep Trevor clean, and they
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: were on Sunday, and to a large degree, they were
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: on Opening Day in Indianapolis. The running game slows all
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: that down, It calms everything down, and it gives Trevor
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: more time in the pocket to get the receiver started.
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: So from my perspective, I know this is a team
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: that's going to use the pass to set up the run.
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: I know that's where it's headed. But on Sunday, I'd
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: like to see them use the run to set up
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: the pass until everything settles down.
• 21:45
  Speaker 5: Yeah, Fred's gonna have a long wait because this is
• 21:48
  Speaker 5: and it's not that Doug doesn't like the run. It
• 21:51
  Speaker 5: says that this team does not believe, with this style
• 21:55
  Speaker 5: of offense that you turn around and just hand the
• 21:58
  Speaker 5: ball off if the numbers aren't there. So a lot
• 22:01
  Speaker 5: of the passes that they use, you know, Brian, a
• 22:03
  Speaker 5: lot of the passes they use, they don't believe that
• 22:05
  Speaker 5: running into a stacked box is it.
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: Is the way to win. So anyway I digress, I.
• 22:13
  Speaker 5: Guess I'll go the other way and say I'd like
• 22:14
  Speaker 5: to see a big game from the receivers because I
• 22:17
  Speaker 5: feel like with this team, if you get some receivers
• 22:22
  Speaker 5: going and feel like that's clicking. I think they feel
• 22:26
  Speaker 5: like that's their identity and they feel better about themselves.
• 22:29
  Speaker 5: So I'd love to see the run too, But I'll
• 22:32
  Speaker 5: use that argument not thinking that there's a huge difference
• 22:36
  Speaker 5: between which I like to see.
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: Well, just one more benefit though to the run, and
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: that is if this offensive line they haven't played well,
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: they've heard that they haven't played well. I don't care
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: whether you're a pass blocking line or run blocking line.
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: There's gotta be a toughness and a nastiness to you.
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: And I think they're on I think they're back on
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: their heels a little bit, especially the interior three. I
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: think by running the bowl, who's a Bear Bryant. It
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: always talked about thevantages of run blocking in practice. I
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: just I'd like to see them run the ball, just
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: to get that offensive line in gear. But I do
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: understand that the way that Doug and Press are going
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: to build this offense, it's going to be based on
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: the past. But this week, I think maybe the run and.
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: I think we might see a little bit of both.
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: To be fair with you, just enough run to get
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: the wide receivers open and get them going and that
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: high flying offense that we hope and expect them to be.
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: Say with us coming up, we'll preview the rest of
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: the week, and they have a sneak peek.
• 23:28

  Speaker 5: Thursday to post on Friday, so look forward to that.
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: I'm going to spend some time with you offensive a
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: defensive lineman this week and Breston Buckner for a pregame
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: radio interview and talk of by establishing the line of scrimmage,
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: the defense has done a very good job. The offensive
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: line obviously has some ground to make up, but I
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: think That's a big story for this team going forward,
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: not just this week. Next week you see b Jon
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: Robinson in Atlanta, in London, and I mean, you've got
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: to be the lines are where it is all built
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: and just kind of get caught up a couple of
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: weeks into the season.
• 25:24
