  [SPEAKER_00]: Texanville Jaguar's fans, welcome into Duval, Daily Prisoner by Jinjak.com.
• 0:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm Jordan Aluga.
• 0:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: Thanks so much for being here Friday.
• 0:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: December 19th, couple sleeps away from your Jaguars, taking on the Broncos in Denver, Mile High Stadium.
• 0:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: Beautiful stadium, by the way.
• 0:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: Absolutely, beautiful.
• 0:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: Was there in Gosh?
• 0:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: What year was that?
• 0:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: 2019, I think.
• 0:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: Gardener meant you.
• 0:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: Epic come back against the Broncos.
• 0:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: You were hitting lots of nays.
• 0:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: If you didn't know, Broncos fans literally, nay.
• 0:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: to celebrate.
• 0:40
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm not going to do it right now.
• 0:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm not going to embarrass myself, but Broncosman will literally nay in this stadium.
• 0:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: It is a sight to behold.
• 0:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: Hopefully we're not hearing too many nays throughout the day on Sunday.
• 0:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: 4 p.m. kick off 405 p.m. kick off regional broadcast, not enough folks putting respect on the Jaguar's name.
• 0:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: Obviously there's some
• 1:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, let's just be real.
• 1:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's BS that the Jaguars in the Broncos didn't get flexed and the Patriots in the Ravens did, but it is what it is, as Sean Peyton pointed out on Wednesday, the Jaguars are a small market team, but they're good.
• 1:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: Why did he talk about that in a press conference?
• 1:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: I have no idea.
• 1:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: What does small market have any relevance to do with this football game?
• 1:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: Outside of, you know, potentially the TV scheduling, I don't know, I really don't.
• 1:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: Interesting thing for Sean Payton to bring up.
• 1:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: Does it really matter?
• 1:34
  [SPEAKER_00]: No.
• 1:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: Right now, we're taking a look at my biggest questions about this game heading in to week 16.
• 1:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: We've gone over all the different scenarios, play off, clinching, all that stuff.
• 1:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: You can go check that out in the different shows we've done throughout the week.
• 1:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: But the Jacks are 10 and 4.
• 1:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: Broncos are 12 and 2.
• 1:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: The Broncos are 11, 11 straight games.
• 1:56
  [SPEAKER_00]: The Jackores are 15, 5 straight games.
• 1:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: Somebody's got a loose, probably.
• 2:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: Hopefully we don't end up in a tie.
• 2:02
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's the last thing anyone wants, right?
• 2:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: Biggest questions right here right now.
• 2:08
  [SPEAKER_00]: Really appreciate y'all tuning in.

  [SPEAKER_00]: Pick up some new do-wall gear, help support the channel.
• 2:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: Look good while doing it.
• 2:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: So, can the Jaguar's keep Trevor Lawrence clean enough?
• 2:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: That is my biggest question.
• 2:25
  [SPEAKER_00]: Not because I don't have any confidence in it, because I actually do have some confidence and the Jaguars' offensive line right now.
• 2:34
  [SPEAKER_00]: But that's the biggest thing, because if they can, I think the Jaguars will win the game.
• 2:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: So that's the biggest question.
• 2:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think if the Jaguars can keep Trevor Lawrence clean enough, and that's not,
• 2:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's not having one of these offensive line performances where they don't give up a sack the whole game.
• 2:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: But again, some teams like the Seahawks, I mean, it was over 50% pressure rate rams.
• 3:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: And the rams game was a little bit different because the Jaguar's were down so big, so early the rams just were able to start tean off a little bit.
• 3:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: And the Jaguar still moved the ball throughout that game.
• 3:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: They were just like snake bit, couldn't get into the end zone and the ref didn't help either with Parker Washington return.
• 3:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's fair to point out that the Jaguars, and their four losses, offensive line has been a problem.
• 3:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: When you look at the Houston Texans game, the most recent loss that the Jaguars had, left tackle was a major issue, and then you also had a horrible horrible play by Chuma Adoga that cost the Jaguars the opportunity to kick a field goal at the end of the game, right?
• 3:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: Walker little just couldn't hold a candle to Denial hunter in the fourth quarter and then But still I mean the Jaguar is put up 29 points.
• 4:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: They have the opportunity to put up even more Still At the end of that game, offensive line cost them for sure fourth quarter offensive line cost them for sure Against the
• 4:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: Rams, again, we talked about that.
• 4:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think the offensive line was doing an okay job before it became just this.
• 4:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: All right, Jaguar's just got to drop back and pass the ball the whole game and the Rams are going to tee off.
• 4:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: And then against the seahawks, that was really the one where it was like, the Jaguar's can't block these guys.
• 4:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: They just cannot block them.
• 4:39
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's it was crazy to see.
• 4:43
  [SPEAKER_00]: and C-Hawks had a crazy win last night.
• 4:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: Come back when down 16 points in the fourth quarter, over time when stupid, two point conversion that was wild.
• 4:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: But then you look at the Bengals.
• 4:56
  [SPEAKER_00]: And it wasn't like the Bengals' defense of lime was dominating that game.
• 4:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: But there was big moments where Walker little could not touch, try Hendrickson.
• 5:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: So, and one of those led to an interception.
• 5:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: There was other issues in those games, right?
• 5:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: It wasn't just that.
• 5:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: There was other issues, too.
• 5:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: And there was no Jacobi Myers in any of those games.
• 5:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: Actually, he was there for Houston.
• 5:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: First week with the jacks, his birthday.
• 5:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: But throughout the four losses, the jackores have had Jacobi wasn't there.
• 5:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: So it's fair to point out that when the Jack Wars have struggled to keep Trevor clean enough, they have lost games.
• 5:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's true.
• 5:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's also fair to point out that the Jack Wars have won five straight with the offensive line playing much better that Colvian landed as playing much better than Walker.
• 5:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: Little was, much more consistently, that right-guard Patrick McCary is playing his best football of the season.
• 6:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: And that the offensive line,
• 6:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: And by extension, you know, Britain strange, like when Alan, the other backup tight ends are helping in that regard too, as well as they have right now.
• 6:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: So it's fair to kind of look at it either way and say, look, the jags, they've struggled against these big time pass rush units, these big time defensive lines,
• 6:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's also fair to say they've been doing the best that they have all year the last five weeks.
• 6:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: Something's got to give though.
• 6:43
  [SPEAKER_00]: So can the Jaguar's keep Trevor Lawrence clean enough?
• 6:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's going to be huge.
• 6:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: But like just and I know Colvin Lannon has not faced a Nick Benito yet as the Jaguar starting left tackle.
• 6:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: But like he did facely ought to lot to a lot.
• 7:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: and he gave up a combined one pressure over the last three weeks as the starting left tackle.
• 7:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's been amazing.
• 7:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: I love tackle for the Jaguars.
• 7:14
  [SPEAKER_00]: Even going back to the game against Tennessee as well.
• 7:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: So this is his biggest test yet, but he's stepped up and gotten the job done in a big way so far.
• 7:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think Wilmic Donald was a good,
• 7:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: Primer to get ready for Nick Bonito.
• 7:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: Nick Bonito is on another level though, clearly.
• 7:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: A couple tears above, we'll McDonald.
• 7:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, COVID-19 and then Patrick McCarries been doing a good job, but the Broncos, they have Bonito, Cooper, John Franklin Myers, Zach Allen, DJ Joe, I mean, it's gonna be tough, and they also blitz.
• 7:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, it's gonna be tough for the Jaguars to do it,
• 7:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think that you can make the argument for either side.
• 7:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: So that's why it's a big question.
• 8:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: Will Anthony Campanile, Jaguar's defense of coordinator, who has been masterful with the post-nap coverage rotations, with the zone defenses, with the different looks up front as well, can he do a better job than Jeff Hathley, who was his boss last year?
• 8:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: Jeff Hathley, can he do a better job than Jeff?
• 8:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think that the packers did some things
• 8:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: not super smart, getting into some one-on-one man looks too often against the Broncos.
• 8:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think the jags have the potential if they can keep a lid on it, if they can put a roof over the Broncos offense to slow down some of those big plays that they had last week.
• 8:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: Some of those explosive plays down the field and put the clamps on a little bit more.
• 8:56
  [SPEAKER_00]: Not going to be easy to do against a Sean Peyton coached offense against an offense that does have a lot of confidence right now against an offense that does feature Cortland Sutton who popped off last week for over 100, 100, 13 yards I think in a touchdown.
• 9:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's the type of receiver we've talked about that gives the Jag war's problems.
• 9:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: Can they get it done?
• 9:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: The big part of that will obviously be the past version.
• 9:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: You have Josh Heinz Allen back at practice yesterday.
• 9:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: Danny Strigo, back at practice yesterday.
• 9:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: Travelling walker getting healthier, Eric Garmstead playing good football, Matt Dickerson, and Devon Hamilton, given it 100% effort against the run.
• 9:37
  [SPEAKER_00]: Guardack and Lloyd, BJ Green stepping up.
• 9:40
  [SPEAKER_00]: So they have a really good offensive line though.
• 9:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: Sometimes it's just going to come down.
• 9:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: Can they cover through the echo of the whistle as Liam Cohen said?
• 9:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: So we'll camp to a better job than Jeff Hathley.
• 9:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: Because they still, it's very similar on the back end for these two teams.
• 10:02
  [SPEAKER_00]: Different personnel, not the same coach, but kind of same mentality.
• 10:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: And flipping sides of the ball, we're kind of going back and forth.
• 10:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: How will the Broncos defend Jacobi Myers?
• 10:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: And if it is Patrick Sertan, versus Dr. Kobe Myers, one-on-one, the whole day, I mean, I think Dr. Kobe can win some of those matchups, but that's take away the number one.
• 10:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: And it's so interesting.
• 10:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: Vance Joseph, he does run a lot of me and stuff.
• 10:34
  [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think he's going to get into this, like Bill Bellachek World where it's like, let's double Myers, give him extra attention, and then put Sertan on Brian Thomas Jr.
• 10:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think that's what he's going to do.
• 10:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: I don't, I don't think that would be a bad idea, personally, but I don't think that's what he's going to do.
• 10:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think most likely it's going to, they're going to try to get Patrick Sertan on Jacobi Myers and say, all right, your other guy's got to beat us.
• 11:08
  [SPEAKER_00]: If that's the case, can Brian Thomas Jr. Britain Strange Parker Washington, Tim Patrick, Travis UT and other backfield, Lee Quinn Allen out of the backfield, can they carry the load for the passing game?
• 11:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: If they do that, and you get Brian Thomas Jr. against Riley Moss, I like that matchup, but Brian Thomas Jr. has to step up and play good football if you do that.
• 11:34
  [SPEAKER_00]: In a big, I mean, he asked to have a huge game if that's the case.
• 11:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: If you're going to give him those ops.
• 11:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I think he would, I think he would give him those opportunities.
• 11:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: And he has played much, much better football over the last month.
• 11:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: Well, over the last three games.
• 11:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: Really, his last four games on the field though, because he got hurt against the Raiders, but had a pretty good game against them as well.
• 12:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: It wasn't like spectacular, but like he was playing with effort.
• 12:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: He was getting the job done.
• 12:07
  [SPEAKER_00]: When you look at what he's done just being more consistent, he caught three out of his five targets against the Raiders.
• 12:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: He caught two out of his three targets against the Titans.
• 12:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: Three out of six against the Colts.
• 12:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: And that was a game in which there was just, again, the weather.
• 12:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: And then he four out of seven for 66 and a touchdown this past week.
• 12:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: He did have a drop.
• 12:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's still
• 12:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know, his drop rate is still too high, 17%, I think it's been a little bit better as of late.
• 12:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: Can Brian Thomas Jr. step up in a matchup that could completely favor him?
• 12:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like, he is a better football player, a better athlete than Riley Moss.
• 12:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: If that's what they give you, can you take advantage of it?
• 13:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: I still don't think I would give him a 10 target game in that scenario and all likelihood.
• 13:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: I would still be trying to pepper Britain strange, Parker Washington, Tim Patrick, Travis ETN, and still target Myers at times.
• 13:14
  [SPEAKER_00]: When you kind of get into some bunch formations, you rub, you pick, you do different things.
• 13:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, those other guys are gonna have to step up and Brian Thomas Jr. might have to step up and have his biggest game of the year.
• 13:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: If, Sir Tan is following, Jacobi Myers are on the field.
• 13:37
  [SPEAKER_00]: Broncos offense, we'll have an Ingram BA Big Factor.
• 13:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think that's fun, you know?
• 13:43
  [SPEAKER_00]: Evan Ingram.
• 13:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: And you could say the same thing about Tim Patrick.
• 13:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: Tim Patrick had some great years with the Broncos.
• 13:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: Evan Ingram had some great years with the Jaguars.
• 13:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: Ingram, he hasn't been a focal point of the offense consistently.
• 14:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like the last couple of weeks, he's been targeted to combine five times.
• 14:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: But he has had some big games for them.
• 14:08
  [SPEAKER_00]: He has six catches for 79 yards against the commanders.
• 14:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: That was his biggest outing.
• 14:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: Five catches on five targets against the jets.
• 14:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: So he, again, he hasn't been the biggest factor this year for them and his kind of drop issues have come back.
• 14:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: They weren't there when he was playing with Trevor Lawrence.
• 14:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: But no, Trevor Lawrence, there was an unkegeable ball.
• 14:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: Don't forget.
• 14:37
  [SPEAKER_00]: Evan Ingraham, can he be a big factor?
• 14:39
  [SPEAKER_00]: Will Tim Patrick be fired up to have a big game in mile high?
• 14:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know, Tim Patrick, he had some years there.
• 14:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: Had some injuries for sure, but like his final two healthy, healthy issues and where he played most of the year.
• 14:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: He had 51 catches for 742 yards and 6 touchdowns.
• 15:02
  [SPEAKER_00]: He had 53 catches for 734 yards and 5 touchdowns.
• 15:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: And he's doing well for the Jaguars right now.
• 15:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: He is.
• 15:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: Drop rates a little high.
• 15:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: One of those drops was in the rain where most of the Jaguars receivers were dropping the ball at some point or the other.
• 15:18
  [SPEAKER_00]: But can these guys going up against their former teams to receivers?
• 15:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: Let's call it what it is to receivers.
• 15:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: Going up against their former team can they be a factor.
• 15:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: And neither of them is like the focal point of their passing
• 15:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: kind of a a more of a focus.
• 15:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think which teams running backs have a bigger day could be a really big factor in this one.
• 15:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like RJ Harvey, no secret.
• 15:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: The Jag war is we're interested in drafting him.
• 15:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: They won't have basaltutin in this one, but they will have Travis C. T. N. Lee Quint Allen, DJ Dallas as well.
• 16:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: Which teams running backs will have a bigger day?
• 16:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: Just like
• 16:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's not even like consistent.
• 16:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think either running game is going to be consistent.
• 16:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: Both of these run defenses are excellent.
• 16:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: Think the teams are going to have to throw the ball to move the ball.
• 16:14
  [SPEAKER_00]: If they want to really put some points on the board in this one.
• 16:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: But, ETN incredibly explosive.
• 16:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: RJ Harvey incredibly explosive.
• 16:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: Both of them are on streak, subscoring touchdowns.
• 16:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like I think RJ Harvey is like three or four games in a row.
• 16:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: ETN's like five games in a row, something like that.
• 16:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: They're making guys miss and space.
• 16:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: They're electric running backs, which one of those guys or running back rooms kind of is able to make a big play.
• 16:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe a game-changing play.
• 16:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: That could have a big impact.
• 16:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know, will the Jack Wars coaches who I think, I think schematically and motivationaly,
• 17:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: The Jaguar's coaches are entering that level of like there is good as anyone right now, but Sean Payton and Man's Joseph have been at that level.
• 17:14
  [SPEAKER_00]: Can the Jaguar's coaches give them an elite coaching duo of the business?
• 17:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know, offensively I think Liam Cohen can get it done against Man's Joseph.
• 17:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think camp can do it again, Sean Payton too.
• 17:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: And the player's got to go out and make the plays, right?
• 17:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: But you have to put them in position, the best position, to make those plays.
• 17:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: So can you go into Denver?
• 17:39
  [SPEAKER_00]: Gonna be a raucous environment and come out with a dub against a really good coaching staff.
• 17:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: And yeah, well, the Jaguar is finally kind of take their respect.
• 17:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: They deserve.
• 17:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: This is a team that deserves respect.
• 17:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think that they have the best passing offense in the AFC right now.
• 18:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: Think that they have one of the most difficult defenses to prepare for.
• 18:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: They force turnovers.
• 18:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: They hit the quarterback.
• 18:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: They stop the run.
• 18:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: Again, they give you a lot of different looks up front, they give you a lot of different looks on the back end, post-nap coverage rotation, you have to adjust on the fly.
• 18:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I mean, it's difficult to deal with for sure.
• 18:34
  [SPEAKER_00]: And everybody said the Jaguar has turned over.
• 18:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: They wouldn't be able to sustain the turnovers, but
• 18:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: and it hasn't been as crazy as it was early in the year, but they're still forcing turnovers at a high level.
• 18:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: They absolutely are.
• 18:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: They have the second most takeaways in the NFL.
• 18:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: They have 18 interceptions, which is second most.
• 19:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: They have eight fumbles recovered, which is tied for like six seventh.
• 19:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: doing it in a big way.
• 19:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm really excited for this game and I hope the jag war is going to dimmer, snatch that respect that they deserve, put the league on notice.
• 19:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: But these things we've talked about today are really going to help define what what it looks like on Sunday, especially the jag war is offensive line and protection plan.
• 19:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: If they can protect, not just one on one, sometimes it's gonna be identifying the blitzer.
• 19:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: Identifying where you're hot if you're Trevor Lawrence and having a plan for that.
• 19:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: So really appreciate y'all being here.
• 19:51
