Speaker 1: a five star rating. Let's get into it this week
0:46
Speaker 1: with head coach Urban Meyer and Wednesday's press conference. Looking
0:49
Speaker 1: for more out of the Jags wide receivers. So we're
0:52
Speaker 1: just kind of trying to find the right mix out there.
0:54
Speaker 1: The d J Chark obviously was something we counted on
0:56
Speaker 1: with the speed and size, and then we you know,
0:59
Speaker 1: continue to see church and you know, Marvin Jones has
1:01
Speaker 1: been pretty consistent, Lebisco. We've been moving inside and outside,
1:04
Speaker 1: you know, and I think we're gonna settle him down
1:06
Speaker 1: in one position. Agnew was a guy that we really
1:08
Speaker 1: didn't count on. It turned out to be provided spark
1:10
Speaker 1: for us. He's fast, he's tough, takes care of the ball.
1:13
Speaker 1: That's one of the areas that we're trying to figure out.
1:16
Speaker 1: Back to Monday and plenty of questions about the receivers
1:19
Speaker 1: and the offensive production leading into Jaguars Happy Hour Monday afternoon,
1:24
Speaker 1: Pete Priscoe, Tony Basselli and I dug into the social
1:27
Speaker 1: media mail bag at Zack Bierman, what percentage of Trevor
1:31
Speaker 1: struggles to this point around him and what percentage is
1:34
Speaker 1: on the wide receivers an offensive coordinator. I think it's
1:38
Speaker 1: forty three point seven six four three on him and
1:44
Speaker 1: I can't wait to hear the other night fifty three
1:51
Speaker 1: uh point to three six four five on Varil level.
2:00
Speaker 1: That doesn't add up, No, it doesn't. But what did
2:02
Speaker 1: you so you you put it on the receivers, on
2:06
Speaker 1: on him, and then what do you put it on
2:10
Speaker 1: so me, I'll give you a right here's the answer
2:12
Speaker 1: I put on I put ten on the offensive line.
2:18
Speaker 1: I put on the quarterbacks, I mean on the on
2:22
Speaker 1: the tight ends, I put um, I put twenty five.
2:29
Speaker 1: I put five on the running back. I put on
2:33
Speaker 1: the quarterback, and I put on the receivers and on
2:37
Speaker 1: the coach. People added up, all right. I put more
2:44
Speaker 1: on the wide receivers. I put more on the coach.
2:48
Speaker 1: I'd probably go thirty and thirty for the ID probably
2:51
Speaker 1: go thirty five, and because I think the receivers are
2:54
Speaker 1: big problem. Uh, and then offensive line probably ten. Like
2:58
Speaker 1: you said, tight ends, I mean yeah, I guess recently
3:04
Speaker 1: though it's hard to put it on. Arnold's playing fine,
3:09
Speaker 1: So I'd probably go five percent on them, and then
3:13
Speaker 1: the staff for who they hired put the rest on
3:18
Speaker 1: on the head coach. It's a bad offense. It's a
3:24
Speaker 1: bad offense. It's a bad offensive. And I will say this,
3:28
Speaker 1: I think there will be major changes to the offense
3:31
Speaker 1: after this season. Major. Nobody's told me that. Huh new
3:37
Speaker 1: often new coordinator, whole new thing. He thinks will be
3:41
Speaker 1: changes at the coaching levels. What are you saying, JP,
3:43
Speaker 1: I've heard that, Yes, and draft a wide receiver and
3:49
Speaker 1: signed one in free agency. Now there isn't anything in
3:52
Speaker 1: free agency worth the dan not getting Davante Adams two
3:57
Speaker 1: first rounders for Davante Adams? No, would you? Yeah? Now,
4:03
Speaker 1: why Pete two? I might trade one and something else. Okay,
4:10
Speaker 1: let me ask you a question. Would you trade your
4:12
Speaker 1: first and second rounder alteringly top ten in the in
4:16
Speaker 1: the round next year to the Packers? Would want to Adams?
4:20
Speaker 1: Is he also gonna morph into a guy who can
4:22
Speaker 1: rush the past or two? No, I'm just asking you
4:25
Speaker 1: the question, Pete. I would not. I would because you're
4:29
Speaker 1: gonna have to pay him the highest making the highest
4:31
Speaker 1: paid receiver league. Fine you immediately? Yeah, you know what?
4:36
Speaker 1: He's you know what young? He's not young? Well? He
4:40
Speaker 1: howld I think he's older than that? Yeah? Yeah, he'll
4:49
Speaker 1: be twenty nine in December. Okay, here's a good five
4:52
Speaker 1: years left him. J P. Would you do that? Or
4:59
Speaker 1: would you draft? Did you drafted? Would you rather have
5:01
Speaker 1: Davante Adams or drafted guy like Garrett Wilson in the
5:05
Speaker 1: first round and come back and get another one in
5:07
Speaker 1: the second round. I'll tell you what, from from a
5:12
Speaker 1: state kid number five? Would you take Garrett? Okay, who's
5:17
Speaker 1: gonna be better for the next three years, Garrett Wilson
5:20
Speaker 1: or Davante Adams. Davante Adams, but you also don't have
5:24
Speaker 1: anybody else. If you get another one in the second round,
5:26
Speaker 1: you get too. They need more than one, they need
5:30
Speaker 1: more than one, they need three. So the first three
5:33
Speaker 1: picks in the draft receiver, oh two or from Ohio State,
5:39
Speaker 1: one from Alabama. They're all four year ohiouse steake, guys,
5:41
Speaker 1: why not bring them? Which Alabama? Ka? Would you take
5:44
Speaker 1: Jason Jamison Williams went to Ohio State. Yeah? Absolutely, I'll
5:53
Speaker 1: say this. I didn't. I probably wouldn't make the trade.
5:55
Speaker 1: I didn't know Davante Adams was twenty nine next year
5:58
Speaker 1: for some reason, not next year, nine next month, That's
6:01
Speaker 1: what I mean. I didn't. Next season he'll be twenty
6:04
Speaker 1: nine years old. Yeah, I didn't. I wouldn't make that trade.
6:07
Speaker 1: That's all that's getting up there. So I would. Uh. Yeah,
6:12
Speaker 1: you draft a wide receiver, though, who's the best young
6:16
Speaker 1: wide receiver like Justin Jefferson or Jamaar Chase? Would you okay,
6:22
Speaker 1: would you call? Would you call? Minnesota said we'll give
6:25
Speaker 1: you a first and a second for Justin Jefferson. Yes,
6:30
Speaker 1: they wouldn't. They would do it? Would they wouldn't do it?
6:33
Speaker 1: Of course not. Did you give two first rounders for
6:36
Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson? I think about it type quarterback needs that
6:44
Speaker 1: it used to be you didn't need You didn't need
6:46
Speaker 1: that guy. You need that guy now. Because here's the thing,
6:48
Speaker 1: Peter manage your question. Who won the Jalen Ramsey trade?
6:52
Speaker 1: The Rams did? Yeah, we got the two players, We
6:56
Speaker 1: got c. J. Henderson and it was chased on et
7:03
Speaker 1: M and Chason. But one the Rams did? Who would
7:08
Speaker 1: you go sign Chris Godwin? Is Chris Godwin the number one?
7:12
Speaker 1: That's a good question. That's what I mean. He's gonna
7:14
Speaker 1: be here. Here's what the receiver are gonna be on
7:16
Speaker 1: the market, Davante Adams if you could get him as
7:19
Speaker 1: a free agent, but he won't come here. You get
7:22
Speaker 1: Allen Robinson. No, Chris Godwin. How fast this Chris god
7:28
Speaker 1: he's not a burner. He's pretty good though, he is
7:31
Speaker 1: pretty good. How much you hate him? They get some
7:35
Speaker 1: feet they can bring back here. They can really upgrade
7:38
Speaker 1: the receiving corps. They can bring back Allen Robinson and
7:40
Speaker 1: Keeling Goal. Oh my gosh, they're both brain hurt. I
7:54
Speaker 1: would take a long look at Chris Godwin. How about this,
7:57
Speaker 1: how about we get a young guy in the first
7:58
Speaker 1: round and Chris Godwin, because everything I hear about Chris
8:01
Speaker 1: Godwin is he's a pro, he's a great kid. He's
8:04
Speaker 1: a great kid. You get Godwin and your draft Garrett Wilson.
8:09
Speaker 1: All of a sudden, receivers are because anybody then you
8:11
Speaker 1: can fit the third one, and whoever it is, that's right,
8:14
Speaker 1: You're keep well. DJ Chart come back on a one
8:18
Speaker 1: year deal. Yeah, I mean anywhere there you go, there
8:24
Speaker 1: you go, bring him back. Let's move along, showy cornerback.
8:29
Speaker 1: They can convert to wide receivers. Are Jaguars Happy? Our
8:35
Speaker 1: Radio Monday airs flour to six pm on Tin Tin
8:37
Speaker 1: X L A M and Jacksonville and on Jaguars social
8:40
Speaker 1: media channels onto Wednesday. And Huddle up with Bucky Brooks.
8:44
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence's numbers have declined over the last few weeks
8:47
Speaker 1: and Bucky, John Oser and I got into a conversation
8:50
Speaker 1: about Lawrence's pocket presence. Let's hear from the quarterback Trevor
8:54
Speaker 1: Lawrence speaking with the media today. John Osier add the
8:57
Speaker 1: question about his pocket residents and if he's still working
9:02
Speaker 1: on it. I've always had a pretty good feel for
9:04
Speaker 1: the pocket and moving. I think the difference in college
9:08
Speaker 1: and now the NFL is you know, when you feel color,
9:12
Speaker 1: you feel someone getting off a block or whatever, and
9:15
Speaker 1: you move. I've always been good at that. It's just
9:17
Speaker 1: not moving too much though. You know, the NFL, you
9:19
Speaker 1: can only move a yard or so and then you're
9:21
Speaker 1: gonna move into more trouble if you move further than that.
9:23
Speaker 1: So that's one thing that just smaller movements. You watch
9:26
Speaker 1: someone like Tom Brady just can sit in the pocket
9:29
Speaker 1: and move six inches each direction and buy himself a
9:32
Speaker 1: couple of extra seconds. Like that's something that him and
9:34
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers and all these guys have been playing for
9:36
Speaker 1: a long time do a really good job of. And
9:38
Speaker 1: that's just through experience and playing and getting a feel
9:40
Speaker 1: for it and really trusting it. And um, I feel
9:43
Speaker 1: like I've gotten better, but there's always more work to do.
9:45
Speaker 1: There always room to improve. Trevor last week sixteen and
9:50
Speaker 1: thirty five D sixty two yards fifty nine and a
9:53
Speaker 1: half rating, and you see his numbers for the year,
9:55
Speaker 1: just under two thousand yards. John, you asked him the question,
10:00
Speaker 1: and that's a very thoughtful answer from a quarterback in
10:03
Speaker 1: his first season. Well, I just asked because I thought
10:06
Speaker 1: he was off the charts good at this early and
10:09
Speaker 1: I'm glad we used this because I do want to
10:11
Speaker 1: hear Bucky's thoughts on it. Um. I thought he was
10:14
Speaker 1: off the charts good awareness getting away from pressure earlier
10:19
Speaker 1: in the season. It seems like in the last couple
10:22
Speaker 1: of weeks maybe he has has felt the pressure a
10:27
Speaker 1: little more. I'm not saying he's bad in this area
10:29
Speaker 1: that I think. I think he's really good. I don't
10:31
Speaker 1: think you lose it in a couple of games. But Bucky,
10:34
Speaker 1: are you seeing anything concerning in the pocket? Where do
10:38
Speaker 1: you think he is on this? And? Uh, you know,
10:41
Speaker 1: what are your thoughts on that watching him, because I
10:44
Speaker 1: know you watched that closely every week with him. Yeah, no, John,
10:47
Speaker 1: I think you point to something. He is a little
10:49
Speaker 1: jittery in the pocket, but some of that is because
10:52
Speaker 1: he's waiting for his guys on the outside to win.
10:55
Speaker 1: In the league that is really predicated on timing and rhythm,
10:58
Speaker 1: particularly from the quarterback. When your guys don't uncover quickly
11:02
Speaker 1: and you've been hit a few times, it does make
11:05
Speaker 1: you change and move around and hope and pack the
11:09
Speaker 1: football and wait for your guy to get open. And so, UM,
11:13
Speaker 1: I feel like with Trevor Lawrence, like we really won't
11:14
Speaker 1: know what he is going forward until he has more
11:18
Speaker 1: around him, not only the offensive line but the playmakers,
11:21
Speaker 1: because what he needs and what I would love to see,
11:23
Speaker 1: I would love to see him take a snap, drop back,
11:26
Speaker 1: hit the fifth step, let the ball go on time,
11:28
Speaker 1: and guess what the wide receiver is open. It is
11:30
Speaker 1: rare that we're seeing those simple things kind of play out,
11:35
Speaker 1: and so because of that, that's why this passing game
11:37
Speaker 1: has been grounded. They have to find a way to
11:40
Speaker 1: make it very easy for him. And the way they
11:42
Speaker 1: can make it easier for him is making the game
11:45
Speaker 1: easier for the wide receivers to uncover get open quickly,
11:47
Speaker 1: so he can live with the ball on time and
11:49
Speaker 1: I have to worry about all the chaos around him
11:51
Speaker 1: within the podcat. Yeah, Bucky, you touched on something I
11:53
Speaker 1: said a couple of times this week. Um, I'm not
11:55
Speaker 1: saying that Trevor hasn't had some bad plays in the
11:58
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks. Yeah, I went back and watched
12:00
Speaker 1: the game he through thirty five times counted five or
12:04
Speaker 1: six balls that I thought, Okay, they accurate off a
12:07
Speaker 1: little bit on that. But what you never see, And
12:10
Speaker 1: maybe this came into light because I'm watching the Colts
12:13
Speaker 1: the other day, two or three times in that game
12:15
Speaker 1: wide open on crossing routes where easy throw and it's
12:19
Speaker 1: a fifteen yard game. I haven't seen that for this
12:23
Speaker 1: offense at all this season. And I guess my point
12:26
Speaker 1: with Trevor, the people who are criticizing him this week
12:28
Speaker 1: as a rookie, if you throw thirty five times, I'm
12:31
Speaker 1: not sure you're not gonna expect six or seven balls
12:34
Speaker 1: that aren't quite where they want to be, especially if
12:35
Speaker 1: the wide receivers aren't winning. But the drops and the
12:38
Speaker 1: lack of anything easy, it feels like there ought to
12:43
Speaker 1: be eight more completions in there somewhere between. Something ought
12:48
Speaker 1: to be breaking easier than this, and they ought to
12:50
Speaker 1: be catching the ball a little better. Everybody wants to
12:53
Speaker 1: turn this conversation on Trevor into this or that it's
12:57
Speaker 1: either one or the other. It's somewhere in between. But
13:00
Speaker 1: I think those points I make, Bucky, I I think
13:02
Speaker 1: they're valid because I'm making them. But what you know,
13:05
Speaker 1: your thoughts on that. There's a lot of validity to it. Uh,
13:08
Speaker 1: it's a lot of validity to being able to look
13:10
Speaker 1: at the game, and a lot of times when I'm
13:12
Speaker 1: looking at Trevor, I just throw the numbers to the
13:13
Speaker 1: side because I don't think it's a really fair way
13:16
Speaker 1: to evaluate them based on the numbers. What he's playing with,
13:19
Speaker 1: what he's being tasked with, is uncommon for what a
13:24
Speaker 1: rookie should be doing. We're basically asking Trevor Lawrence to
13:28
Speaker 1: put the team on his back as a first year starter.
13:31
Speaker 1: That is uncommon, That is unpresident. That's not really what
13:34
Speaker 1: you ask your young quarterback to do. Typically, in most situations,
13:39
Speaker 1: you want your other guys, your other parts of the
13:42
Speaker 1: team to be able to carry the team while the
13:44
Speaker 1: young rookie gets up to speed, so the defense keeps
13:48
Speaker 1: to score down, the running game keeps the offense within range.
13:51
Speaker 1: The quarterback has asked to make four or five plays
13:54
Speaker 1: a game to eventually win the game. When everyone is
13:57
Speaker 1: celebrating Mac jones success, us right, everyone is talking about
14:01
Speaker 1: Mac Jones best rookery we've seen. Look at all this.
14:04
Speaker 1: When you dig into the numbers, the majority of his
14:07
Speaker 1: plays are running back screens he has the second most
14:11
Speaker 1: in the league. Out routes he has the most in
14:14
Speaker 1: the league, and check down plays. That's what he's doing.
14:18
Speaker 1: He is winning because the design of the offense has
14:21
Speaker 1: made it where he is only throwing safe throws and
14:25
Speaker 1: that is on a team that doesn't have a lot
14:26
Speaker 1: of exceptional perimeter talent. So some of this falls back
14:30
Speaker 1: on the play call and the play designers to make
14:32
Speaker 1: the game easier for the quarterback. Make the game easy
14:36
Speaker 1: for the quarterback, and then he can do some of
14:39
Speaker 1: those things that we saw him do at Clemson, and
14:41
Speaker 1: this offense will develop a better rhythm because the driving
14:44
Speaker 1: force of the offense is comfortable and playing better. Huddle
14:47
Speaker 1: up with Bucky Brooks Airs Wednesday at four thirty on

16:00
Speaker 1: Honors have two of the top weapons in the game,
16:02
Speaker 1: wide receiver Deebo Samuel and tight end George Kittle. Samuel
16:06
Speaker 1: is second in the league and receiving yards and there's
16:08
Speaker 1: a yards after catch machine. Defensive coordinator Joe Cullen on
16:12
Speaker 1: the challenges he creates back when when I was here before,
16:16
Speaker 1: you know, Coach Meyer had you know Percy, I mean
16:18
Speaker 1: they were doing at Minnesota. So and be out there
16:20
Speaker 1: in Zebra. Next thing you know, he's the tailback. It
16:22
Speaker 1: looks like empty. He comes back in the backfield. They
16:24
Speaker 1: throw tosses, crack flips. So you're in past defense and
16:28
Speaker 1: now they're they're running the ball and they're doing the
16:30
Speaker 1: same thing. So and we do some of that. I mean,
16:32
Speaker 1: you look at what we've done with our guys. It's
16:35
Speaker 1: it's difficult, but I mean you just get to be
16:38
Speaker 1: ready for it, to have your intent is up and
16:39
Speaker 1: and be able to play the kind of the look
16:42
Speaker 1: that you get. And then there's Kettle, one of the
16:44
Speaker 1: great mismatches and all of football. I know this. You
16:47
Speaker 1: know you can. You can get two on him and
16:48
Speaker 1: he still splits um. They move him around, They put
16:51
Speaker 1: him out at number one, they put him at three,
16:53
Speaker 1: put him in the backfield. We just getta you gotta
16:56
Speaker 1: play tight coverage on him and play inside of him,
16:59
Speaker 1: outside of me. Does it good job at the catch
17:01
Speaker 1: point where he turns around and and you you're basically
17:04
Speaker 1: a little bit out of position. He positions well, like
17:06
Speaker 1: a basketball player. But the big thing he does like
17:09
Speaker 1: when he when he catches the ball, he gets a
17:10
Speaker 1: lot of yards after contact, so you gotta tackle him,
17:13
Speaker 1: you know, you limit the yards after contact because he
17:15
Speaker 1: does a good job as anybody after he catches the ball.
17:18
Speaker 1: The Jaguars defense is playing better the last couple of weeks,
17:21
Speaker 1: but they'll be tested this Sunday. More insight to the
17:24
Speaker 1: forty Niners mindset after a big win on Monday Night
17:27
Speaker 1: football from Kieta Martin, a forty Niners senior reporter for
17:31
Speaker 1: the team website. She joined Ashman Sullivan, John Ozan, and
17:34
Speaker 1: Brian Sexton on Jack's Drive Time Thursday morning. We all
17:37
Speaker 1: watched from our couch Monday Night Football, and I read
17:39
Speaker 1: all about how the Rams were supposed to just absolutely
17:42
Speaker 1: dominate the forty Niners and the opposite happened. So tell
17:46
Speaker 1: us about it. Yeah, I think it took a lot
17:49
Speaker 1: of people by surprise, but not necessarily people in the
17:53
Speaker 1: house coming into this game. You know, forty Niners obviously
17:56
Speaker 1: not sitting where they know that they should be, especially
18:00
Speaker 1: looking at the talent they have on that roster um,
18:03
Speaker 1: but going into this game knowing kind of what's on
18:06
Speaker 1: the line, knowing what this team is capable of. Uh,
18:09
Speaker 1: the mindset was much different. Uh. They've if you look
18:12
Speaker 1: at their matchup against the Rams, the forty Niners have
18:14
Speaker 1: actually matched up quite well over the last couple of years.
18:18
Speaker 1: Looking back, um the last two years, having those seasons
18:21
Speaker 1: sweeps and kind of bringing that on and I think
18:23
Speaker 1: a lot of people and if you just look at
18:25
Speaker 1: these storylines heading into Monday Night football, You're looking at
18:28
Speaker 1: this Rams team with all of these new shiny pieces.
18:31
Speaker 1: You've got Matt Stafford under center, you have Von Miller
18:35
Speaker 1: who you got in that trade with the Denver Broncos.
18:37
Speaker 1: You bring in oh b J. So I think absolutely
18:40
Speaker 1: the forty Niners are looking like underdogs, but this team
18:43
Speaker 1: knows it doesn't matter who you bring that. This team
18:46
Speaker 1: wants to bring their a game and they have so
18:48
Speaker 1: much to prove and they were able to do that
18:50
Speaker 1: on primetime. Big picture Kana, Uh, how is Jimmy Garoppolo
18:55
Speaker 1: handled the dynamic in the quarterback room? When you when
18:57
Speaker 1: you take a quarterback in the top five, you generally
19:00
Speaker 1: assume that one guy's on the way out and the
19:02
Speaker 1: other guy's on his way in. Eventually, has that played
19:06
Speaker 1: into the season and the struggles at all, or has
19:08
Speaker 1: Jimmy handled it like a champ? Give us, you know,
19:11
Speaker 1: a thirty thousand foot view of how the quarterback room
19:14
Speaker 1: has played out this season. Yeah. Absolutely, So obviously, you
19:18
Speaker 1: know you're the leader of this team and you hear
19:21
Speaker 1: that essentially this front office has jumped up nine spots
19:24
Speaker 1: and they are targeting a quarterback. Now. Jimmy said that one,
19:28
Speaker 1: he was very grateful that the forty Niners were very
19:30
Speaker 1: open with him about what was going on, But of
19:32
Speaker 1: course he was upset and I believe he kind of
19:35
Speaker 1: there was a chip on his shoulder and that kind
19:37
Speaker 1: of played into how he showed up to offseason workouts,
19:41
Speaker 1: how he showed up to training camp. Um players and
19:44
Speaker 1: head coached Kyle shannahand like all said that Jimmy came
19:48
Speaker 1: to work a little different. It wasn't the same Jimmy
19:52
Speaker 1: Garobino that we've seen in years past. So now let's
19:55
Speaker 1: fast forward to season. Forty Niners have dealt with a
19:58
Speaker 1: little bit of a struggle, but Kyle's and and said
20:00
Speaker 1: that he is at that moment and at this moment,
20:03
Speaker 1: the best quarterback in the building for the job. And
20:05
Speaker 1: gives the forty Niners the best chance to win. I
20:08
Speaker 1: know a lot of fans have been calling to see
20:10
Speaker 1: Tray Lance, but I think we kind of got to
20:12
Speaker 1: take a step back and remember that this guy has
20:15
Speaker 1: only played a handful of games in college. I feel
20:19
Speaker 1: like this is gonna be more of a process. We're
20:22
Speaker 1: gonna have to have a little bit of patients before
20:24
Speaker 1: we see Tray Lance kind of take over the entire offense.
20:26
Speaker 1: But he might be waiting a little longer because of
20:29
Speaker 1: the way Jimmy Garoppolo has been playing over these last
20:31
Speaker 1: three games. Um, he's been playing clean football, decisive football.
20:36
Speaker 1: Their offense has found a way to get clicking, uh,
20:39
Speaker 1: and Jimmy Garoppolo has really been kind of taking the
20:42
Speaker 1: steps that this team necessarily needed, especially as they're looking
20:45
Speaker 1: into this second half of the season. You're trying to
20:47
Speaker 1: make that I don't like saying the word, but that
20:50
Speaker 1: layoff push. I know we're still it's a lot of
20:52
Speaker 1: football to be played, but if Jimmy Garoppolo continues to
20:55
Speaker 1: play at the level that he is right now, it
20:57
Speaker 1: might be a while until we see Trey Lance fully
21:00
Speaker 1: taking charge of the offense. Where is this team's confident
21:04
Speaker 1: level right now there are four and five. Uh, but
21:07
Speaker 1: they've got to feel like if they win this week,
21:09
Speaker 1: they're back in it. Um. Is that how they're approaching it?
21:12
Speaker 1: And do you see this is a team that can
21:14
Speaker 1: make that kind of push. That's kind of exactly what's
21:17
Speaker 1: going on. UM. I actually spoke with a couple of
21:20
Speaker 1: guys yesterday and that when against the Rams was such
21:24
Speaker 1: a momentum builder, and now it's just how do you
21:27
Speaker 1: take that and how do you carry that along the
21:29
Speaker 1: rest of the season. Monday Night was probably the most
21:32
Speaker 1: complete game that we saw the forty Niners played this
21:36
Speaker 1: entire season. It's been a little lopside in other times
21:39
Speaker 1: in the season, and maybe at one point, especially a
21:41
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago against the Chicago Bears, the defense
21:44
Speaker 1: was struggling a little bit. Offense finally caught its wind
21:48
Speaker 1: in the second and a half of the game. But
21:51
Speaker 1: going into Monday Night, Monday Night, if they can continue
21:54
Speaker 1: what we saw on the field there and continue that
21:58
Speaker 1: throughout the season, I feel like this team has the
22:01
Speaker 1: opportunity to take it to that next level. Uh. If
22:04
Speaker 1: you look at the NFC picture right now, you have
22:07
Speaker 1: your teams that are sitting at the top, and you
22:10
Speaker 1: know who are going to be those teams that you're
22:11
Speaker 1: gonna see play January football. But beyond that, some teams
22:15
Speaker 1: are starting to slide, some teams are starting to move up.
22:18
Speaker 1: So there's a lot of opportunity for the Sporting Niners team,
22:21
Speaker 1: But honestly, their fate is realistically in their own hands.
22:25
Speaker 1: They know what lies ahead and they'll have to be
22:28
Speaker 1: the ones that essentially keep them in that mix. As
22:31
Speaker 1: we finished off the second half of the season, Jack's
22:34
Speaker 1: Drivetime airs Monday, Wednesday and Thursday at ten o'clock on
22:37
Speaker 1: Jaguars dot Com and there Jags social media channels. Let's
22:40
Speaker 1: wrap this week with the Urban Meyer Show from Tuesday
22:43
Speaker 1: afternoon and our first look at the forty Niners with
22:46
Speaker 1: the head coach Meyer, Jeff Lagavan and I reacted to
22:49
Speaker 1: the big Monday night win for San Francisco and got
22:52
Speaker 1: the head coaches memories of Nick Bosa, the forty Niners
22:55
Speaker 1: defensive end who played for Meyer at Ohio State. The
22:59
Speaker 1: Jaguars could be in the San Francisco forty Niners in
23:02
Speaker 1: week eleven at the one o'clock kickoff time ten am
23:05
Speaker 1: Pacific will take that that's good news for the body
23:08
Speaker 1: clocks short week for San Francisco. But coach, it's the team.
23:11
Speaker 1: I don't know if you watched it all last night,
23:13
Speaker 1: but they just hammered the Los Angeles Rams and held
23:17
Speaker 1: them to their lowest point total and yardage total of
23:20
Speaker 1: the season on defense. This is a team that might
23:23
Speaker 1: feel like they're back in it. Yeah, they've played great.
23:26
Speaker 1: You know, I didn't want to say I didn't expect it,
23:27
Speaker 1: but uh boy, they were all over them. And that
23:30
Speaker 1: started with an eight team play I want to say,
23:32
Speaker 1: a team play drive. And at one point on the
23:35
Speaker 1: twelve first downs, twelve straight first downs, they ran the
23:37
Speaker 1: ball and they ran it hard. And nineteen is one
23:40
Speaker 1: of the best players in the NFL, and I've respected him,
23:43
Speaker 1: I've watched them. Uh and then I you know, I
23:45
Speaker 1: actually made a cut up today of what they how
23:47
Speaker 1: how they used them and him and eight five or
23:50
Speaker 1: you know there for the reason, that's who they are.
23:53
Speaker 1: They're as good a players as they're at their position
23:55
Speaker 1: in the National Football League. Yeah, two guys that would
23:57
Speaker 1: fall into that category of being an elite players. And
24:00
Speaker 1: when you got an elite player, you gotta find creative
24:02
Speaker 1: way us to get him the ball. And in the
24:04
Speaker 1: way that Kyle Shanahan, as you talked about Deebo Samuel
24:07
Speaker 1: and lining up in the backfield is running back. He
24:09
Speaker 1: lined up as a wide receiver. I mean they and
24:12
Speaker 1: when you've got a great player like that, they try
24:14
Speaker 1: to hide him. But uh, that's something that your defense
24:16
Speaker 1: is gonna have to figure out exactly where he is
24:18
Speaker 1: at and identify where he's at, you know what he's
24:21
Speaker 1: gonna be doing. Yeah, the offense has triggered around and
24:25
Speaker 1: nineteen they have also a good back I understand, like
24:28
Speaker 1: a fifth rounder, but he's fourth three speed. He's fast,
24:31
Speaker 1: only about two five pounds. But make no mistake about it.
24:35
Speaker 1: They do an excellent job of moving people around in
24:37
Speaker 1: motions and and running the ball. But they also you know,
24:40
Speaker 1: the ball. Garoppolo does not hold the ball very long.
24:43
Speaker 1: He gets it out quickly. And uh, but number nineteens
24:46
Speaker 1: is got a lot of respect from his player. Yeah,
24:49
Speaker 1: Elijah Mitchell the running back. You're talking about six round pick,
24:52
Speaker 1: and they've got a stable of running backs and they
24:54
Speaker 1: like to run the football. And one of the things
24:56
Speaker 1: that I've seen in the past with them is when
24:58
Speaker 1: they get running the football, and they didn't do a
25:01
Speaker 1: ton of it against the Rams, but once they start
25:03
Speaker 1: running the football, they love play action. That's Kyle Shanahan's game. Yeah,
25:07
Speaker 1: it's a well, it's a combination. Everybody wants to do that.
25:09
Speaker 1: You know, that's the game of football. Yeah, you run
25:12
Speaker 1: the ball well and we're playing our best is that's
25:14
Speaker 1: exactly what we are. We run the ball well. And
25:16
Speaker 1: and it's also you don't get to let people just
25:18
Speaker 1: pin their ears back and come Russia quarterback when a
25:20
Speaker 1: hard play action run because the defensive lineman. It's as
25:24
Speaker 1: a fan and as a everybody, just remember you can
25:26
Speaker 1: control what the defense does. If it's run action, they're
25:29
Speaker 1: going to play the run. If its dropback passion, show
25:31
Speaker 1: a high hat, high hands, you know you're facing with
25:34
Speaker 1: the nick boss and number ninety one, and uh, that's
25:38
Speaker 1: something that'll be very cautious with it in this league.
25:40
Speaker 1: And offensively, the other guy that I would put in
25:43
Speaker 1: the category is kind of unique and that they use
25:44
Speaker 1: him in a different way. Kyle use check the fullback
25:47
Speaker 1: slash tight end that they have. Uh. Look, not many
25:50
Speaker 1: teams in the National Football League have a true fullback
25:52
Speaker 1: on the roster, and I don't know if I'd call
25:54
Speaker 1: him a true fullback or not. I just call him
25:56
Speaker 1: a good football player. Yeah. They flex him out on
25:58
Speaker 1: a big had a big third down completion, like on
26:00
Speaker 1: an option route at drag route, and uh, he's he's
26:02
Speaker 1: a finisher and block. So they've done a nice job
26:05
Speaker 1: putting that team together. Head coach Reban Meyer with us
26:08
Speaker 1: on the Urban Meyers Show. You'll look across the other
26:11
Speaker 1: side and see Nick Bosa. What is your first thought
26:14
Speaker 1: when you see somebody wearing the name Bosa on the back. Well, Uh,
26:19
Speaker 1: I'm very close with the family, obviously got the coach
26:22
Speaker 1: of the two brothers, Joey and Nick. His father was
26:24
Speaker 1: a first round draft pick, his mom was a graduate
26:27
Speaker 1: of o High State. And I'm very close at thick
26:30
Speaker 1: you know, I just I love the guy. He's a
26:33
Speaker 1: you know, talk about we talked about plus two. He
26:35
Speaker 1: was a plus two animal. He's a guy that, uh,
26:37
Speaker 1: you know, he's got extremely powerful uh force behind his
26:42
Speaker 1: past rush, but he also has a great speed. So
26:45
Speaker 1: and his sidekick right there next to him is this problem. Yeah.
26:49
Speaker 1: You look at Nick Bosa and Joey Bosa, and both
26:52
Speaker 1: of them have just tremendous lower body strength, the way
26:56
Speaker 1: that they play the game. And I'm sitting there watching
26:59
Speaker 1: these guys come out of Ohio State every year. You
27:01
Speaker 1: got the bossas Chase Young did. Did you recruit all
27:04
Speaker 1: these guys? Recruited those names? Yeah, and he's Sam Hubbard
27:08
Speaker 1: and Tae Kwon Lewis and you know a lot of
27:11
Speaker 1: bunch of good ones in there. Did you leave anybody
27:14
Speaker 1: for anybody else? I mean, holy cow talking about owning
27:17
Speaker 1: the corner of the market on defensive ends. Yeah, her,
27:19
Speaker 1: Chase Young toward a c L two and a great guy,
27:22
Speaker 1: and but we gotta focus on boast and we gotta
27:24
Speaker 1: know exactly where he's at it all the time. They
27:26
Speaker 1: make a little more difficult because they play him on
27:28
Speaker 1: the right side and the left side. Now. I think
27:30
Speaker 1: predominantly he was a left side guy, so you knew
27:32
Speaker 1: who he was, and now they moved him around and
27:34
Speaker 1: that'll be challenging for us. I'm glad we're home. The
27:36
