• 1:35
  Speaker 3: A lot of football important games left.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: I hope that's the mentality this football team.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: We have to have it.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: Let's to it after Wise, you don't want to be
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: wallering in the past too much waller.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: There's no hangover in this building.
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: No, shouldn't be not allowed, shouldn't be not allowed. But
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: you got you got to. You gotta chew on it
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: though a little oh.
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: No, no, we had to chew on it on Monday,
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: and we chew went on Tuesday, and now we're ready
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: to on Wednesday.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: We're ready to beat their still chewing on though.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: Having a game like that's a great motiv or, I mean,
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: I think should be. Yeah.
• 2:05
  Speaker 5: Nineteen point lead, the largest blown lead in Jaguars history,
• 2:09
  Speaker 5: twenty six points unanswered for the Houston Texans, and that
• 2:13
  Speaker 5: thirty six to twenty nine loss. I mean, let's briefly
• 2:16
  Speaker 5: touch on this game because we have to dough with
• 2:18
  Speaker 5: you here. I mean, and start with the defense didn't
• 2:21
  Speaker 5: get off the field in the fourth quarter.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, that was the name of the game.
• 2:25
  Speaker 6: Right now.
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: All we had to do was make a play, and
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: in my opinion, I just thought we were a little shy,
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: if you will, for lack of a better word to define,
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: I mean, we've got to be aggressive. I mean, our
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: job is on defenses to go out and put the
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: fire out and not sit there and watch it burn.
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: So you know, you go out there. We got to
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: get a stop. We got to get off the field.
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: We can't let them score. We get the ball off them.
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: With all the things that this defense is capable of doing,
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: we got to put into motion. And that was the
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: name of the game. We just had to All we
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: had to do is do that. So that has to
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: be reviewed as to be activated, if you will.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: Moving forward, let me ask you a question here because
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: I want to make sure that I make this very
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: clear for people. When you say to be more aggressive,
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: it's not necessarily let's blitz more, let's send zero. It's
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: a mentality.
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: Without a doubt, You've got to go on in the
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: field share we've had enough. We're stopping these cats right
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: now and getting the ball back. So no, it's not panic,
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: it's not blitz, that's not that. It's go out and
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: do your job with the best physicality you got tackle
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: the guy.
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: Let's get off the field make plays. I mean, there
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: are so many different opportunities, and that's that's I think
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: the frustrating part of this whole thing. And I've had
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: a lot of people ask me what could they have
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: done better? Schematically? Do they need to do more of
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: this or do more of that? You know, And you
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: get one person that says they want them to blitz more.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: You get the other person said we should be playing
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: more zone, you know what I mean. So you get
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: a WHI everybody's got to answer. You get a whole
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: world of opinions on it. And the reality is is
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: that you know, look, you just execute the plays that
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: are called and make a play within the scheme and
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: you win.
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: But executed aggressively executed physically, I thought there. I just
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: sometimes think that we were kind of on both sides
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: of the wall, kind of more playing to lose almost
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: not to lose, shall I say, versus going out and
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: getting it, And so there's a distinct difference there as
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: far as that's concert.
• 4:16
  Speaker 5: The offense too, they had a hand of this thing also,
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: three it out, a couple of those in a row
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: and then the final possession.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: I mean they got an opportunity to get in extreme fields.
• 4:28
  Speaker 5: However, the penalty negated it before that though, I mean,
• 4:32
  Speaker 5: you know, the two drives before that, Where can we
• 4:34
  Speaker 5: get a couple first downs?
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: Just yeah, put a couple of first downs together, you
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: milk another, you know, two minutes off the clock for
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: every time you get a first down.
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: Well, let me tell you again, I think we had
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: eleven yards in the fourth quarter and gave up one
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: hundred and sixty seven.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: So that's a that's a.
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: True indicator right now of a conditioning situation, and I
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: mean attitudinal conditioning, mental and physical. So that's got I'm
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: sure that's been a has talked about and something that
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: we've got to change immediately.
• 5:03
  Speaker 5: And definitely continues to trend throughout the season. In the
• 5:06
  Speaker 5: fourth quarter, the Jaguars have not really fared that well.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, number your numbers on this are like I didn't
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: realize it was like this.
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: Well, I did a study and it's prompted me to
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: do that based on what we've all been talking about.
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: We've been outscored seven out of nine games in the
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: fourth quarter. One game it was a tie seven to
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: seven in terms of the fourth quarter. But the point
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: differential differential is we scored fifty six points in the
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: fourth quarter, we've given up ninety five.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: And so I'm going to steal that stat from you.
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: You're no, I mean, it's a forty point difference, but
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: that's an indicator of our attitude in the fourth quarter
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: collectively offense defense.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: Coach, you said minus what minus forty.
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: Thirty nine different It's fifty six scored points, ninety five, given.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: Up thirty nine points, thirty nine points, so minus thirty
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: nine in the fourth quarter. And so when you told
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: me that a little bit earlier, sure, we went through
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: and looked at the different teams in the league that
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: have winning records that are minus in point differential just overall, right,
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: And I think the widest margin is, you know, with
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: winning records like minus thirteen, right, and there's a couple
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: minus eight somewhere in that range. But I mean, we're
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: talking to just one quarter minus thirty nine.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: Well, again, that's an indicator, a big indicator.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: Now you fix it.
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: Well, you know, one of the things that I would recommend,
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: and we've done in the past, is what we call
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: the fourth quarter drill. So at the end of practice,
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: when everything else is done, now we go out and
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: we have situations four minutes so to speak, but I
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: would expand it to maybe eight minute as far as
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: that's concerned. But situations offense, defense, unscripted good against good. Well,
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: we got to now when we're tired and all that
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: other kind of stuff, we got to make plays. And
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: there's nothing, there's no remedy other than doing it. So
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: that's what we called fourth quarter drill. We have to
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: win the fourth quarter. You practice that and you become
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: successful on both sides of the ball. As far as
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: doing that, that's the only way to do it, I believe.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I think it's the same way as like let's
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: say a team was slow starting. Really emphasize the beginning
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: of practice, you know, and just like what you're talking about,
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: you emphasize the back end of practice. Boys, nonw hour
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, let's go, Yeah, gotta have it. Now.

  Speaker 5: Visit PRI Productions dot com. It is Jaguars Happy Hour
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: ten to Nexcel ninety two point five FM, JP Shadwick,
• 7:34
  Speaker 5: Jeff Logoman, former Jags linebackers coach Mark Duffner with us
• 7:37
  Speaker 5: each at every Thursday. Love to talk this week from
• 7:40
  Speaker 5: the head coach and the quarterback about a conversation. They
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: have conversations every week, clearly, but Liam Cohen shared some
• 7:47
  Speaker 5: of the conversation we had with Trevor Lawrence after the
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: game last week and said, you know what, we got
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: to let it rip a little more, let it loose.
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: And that's not just this week. I think that's just
• 7:58
  Speaker 5: in general, a general fear with a quarterback.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: What does that mean to you? And how do you
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: go let it rip? So to speak? Down the stretch
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: as a quarterback, Well, I think you.
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: Just you start to play, You start to play confidently.
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: You take the reps that you've had, practice, your preparation,
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: and let it go on the field. And you can
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: see whether there's been some hesitancy at times, not just
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: on offense, but on defense, and not just by Trivor,
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: but by others, and this is a game of let
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: it fly. I mean, you've got to play hard. It's
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: a hard, physical, fast game, and if you sit back
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: or you're a little bit on your heels, you're going
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: to get beat. And so I think that was the
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: message is that don't worry about it, play one snap
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: at a time as hard as you possibly can, with
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: what you've been coached, with what you've prepared, and let's
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: we'll take the results.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: That's how I see it.
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's. My interpretation is just hey, look,
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: if you see it, throw it, take it, you know,
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: don't don't sit there and go, you know, let me
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: give an extra second here, just to confirm it. No,
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: throw the ball, recognize it. Throw the ball, okay. And
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: part of that is the recognition speeding up and then
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: also the body speeding up in some ways so that
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: it's ready to make that throw. For example, one of
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: the things that kind of makes me a little I
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: don't want to stay upset. But it's so you watch
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: Trevor and he's in the shotgun, Okay. When you're in
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: the shotgun, the whole reason for shotgun is that you're
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: basically almost already there. Okay, once you get the snap,
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: you don't need to backpedaler. See many times when he's
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: in the shotgun and he's dropping back like he's coming
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: out from under center. Well wait a minute, you do that,
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: two things happen. Number One, you're making it really hard
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: for your offensive line because you're deep in in the pocket.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: You know, you're making it the bend of the corners
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: a little bit more rounded instead of sharp. Okay. The
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: other thing that it does is that it puts your
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: body in the position that it's not ready to throw
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: the ball as soon as it needs to be. And
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: I think those are a couple things. And then you know,
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: you go back to the off season with a lot
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: of conversation that Trevor was having and Liam cohane was
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: talking about about that footwork thing with Trevor. Well, this
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: is one of those footwork things I think that he
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: needs to improve upon. And if he can do that,
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: part of letting it rip will happen, especially when he's
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: in that shotgun situation.
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: Absolutely, that's just and sometimes just stepping up into the
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: you know, into the pocket rather than like you said, yeah,
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: is the key on the thing.
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: You know, take take a half a step to the
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: left and make the throw. Yeah, don't take a half
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: a step to the left and let your eyes drop
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: and then you don't see the guy coming open, you know.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: I mean, so there's there's a lot of things I
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: think to go into play there, and it's you can
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: probably you're probably summarizing a lot of different things by
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: that term let it rip, you know, So it can mean.
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: A lot and and it affects the defense too. They've
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: got to let it rip.
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: You can't sit back, you know, you want to start fast.
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: You want to play fast. That means your eyes have
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: got to be where they are. Who can block me?
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: Where are they coming? You know what? What indicators can
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: I take advantage of and anticipate quickly?
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: So let it rip applies to all of us.
• 11:00
  Speaker 5: We're going to dig into the Chargers a little bit
• 11:01
  Speaker 5: more coming up on both sides of the ball. But
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: let's continue our conversation with the Jaguars and to that
• 11:06
  Speaker 5: in the defensive side of letting it rip, if you will.
• 11:10
  Speaker 5: The Jaguars now have twelve sacks for the season, tied
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: for the lowest total in the National Football There's two
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: guys in the league that have eleven solo sacks. By
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: the way, that kind of gives you the idea of
• 11:20
  Speaker 5: what's going on or not going on for the Jaguars defense.
• 11:23
  Speaker 5: It's been a talking point all season. It's really starting
• 11:26
  Speaker 5: to ramp up now, Duff, so in those key moments,
• 11:30
  Speaker 5: especially in the fourth.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: Quarter, they weren't able to get home on Davis Mills.
• 11:34
  Speaker 5: What else do you do defensively to help the pass
• 11:38
  Speaker 5: rush at this point now in week eleven, Well.
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: First of all, I think I'm sure they're looking number
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: one at the players on their offensive line who they
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: think is the weak links, if you will, we can
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: take advantage of by structure of rush or game.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: You got to look at the protection. What type of
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: protection are they.
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: We can dictate to them in terms of we're going
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: to get an overload front, we can cover them all up,
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: we can mug linebackers up, so we can dictate a
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: lot of the protection situations. And then now make sure
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: that we got the who's. I always talk about the who's.
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: The who's we can attack on their side of the
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: ball offense, the week links on the offensive line. But
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: then let's put our best guys, our guys that we
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: know can win the one on ones that can get
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: there in their best position. You know, I've drawn up
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: I'm guilty of this in my career. I've drawn We've
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: drawn up some great stuff, but we kind of got
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: forgetful of who the who was in terms of you're
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: trying to get to the quarterback and he didn't know
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: how to beat the one on one or go free
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: late in the down. So all those things have got
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: to be looked at right now. And this quarterback is
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: getting down at almost a record pace. He's about two
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: point two toy one trying to get it out. They're
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: really trying to get him to get the ball off
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: quick because of some their line situations.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: So it's the Who's.
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: It's take advantage of their weak links, attack their protection,
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: and then freaking let's start winning one on ones.
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the Who's last week didn't get taken advantage of
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: backup guys, back up Who's street left tackle which was
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: for Josh and then for Trayvon. You had Trent Brown,
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: who I said this in our broadcast. He looks like
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: he swallowed a small child. He's three and eighty pounds
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: and it can't move Garden and Trayvon missed two sacks.
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: You know, one of them he missed because he couldn't
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: hold on when he was unblocked, get yourself under control
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: and make play. And then the other one he just
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: smashed Davis Mills. And the rules are very clear. Yeah,
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: you can't make contact to the head and neck area and
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: number two, you can't bury him into the ground. He
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: did both, you know, so got to have a little awareness.
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: That's two weeks in a row that Trayvon's hurt the
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: team because of personal foul penalties and got ejected the
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: week before. I mean, he's got to be better this week.
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: He got two backup tackles once again. Joe Walt is
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: going to be out for Sean Slater is going to
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: be out, and so you're dealing with Trey Pipkins and
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: austinculous two backup tackles. Opportunity is there, so, uh, you know,
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: can they take advantage of it? You know, I'm not
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: counting on it because they haven't been able to do
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: it yet, so I hope they can.
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: Well, this is this is a game to do it,
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: because again, this quarterback has been hit I think the
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: second most in the league right now, and I think
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: he's been sacked.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: Shoot, I think.
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: He's been hit. Yeah, he's been set.
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: He's been hit twenty two times, more than anybody in
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: the league, and second most in terms of sack. Sack
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: five times last week and hit nine times.
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: That's been like versus cam Ward. Yeah, they can say
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: poor cam Wards or a poor guy tough year. But
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: if i'm I'm with everything you're saying.
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: But now we've got to We've got the setting we
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: want right now, and this is a you better get
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: this guy down.
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: He's strong. We had him in the Senior Bowl. This
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: guy is strong.
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: He can run too.
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: How about the leading rusher as a quarterback in the
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: NFL right now, and they're second leading rusher on the team.
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: I think he's got about three hundred and fifty yards.
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: Well he's not Lamar Jackson. No, no, I'll give you
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: the numbers. I give you the numbers. Gay fifty one
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: rushes for three hundred and twenty four yards six point
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: four yards per carry, and he has one rushing touchdown.
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but he but agreed with you. But he can
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: find a duck alley. He looks for him, and he
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: is strong. He's a strong runner. You're not gonna get
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: him down with an arm tackle, you better grab every
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: body part you can.
• 15:19
  Speaker 5: And with all that contact in the pocket and the
• 15:23
  Speaker 5: hits that he's taking in the sacks that he's taking,
• 15:26
  Speaker 5: he's still number one in the league in completions attempts
• 15:29
  Speaker 5: that he's second in the league in passing.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: Yard and he's third and touchdown.
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: Doesn't seem to phase him too much.
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: No, no, no, this guy is the real deal. Smart, competitive,
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: Speaking of letting the rip, yeah no, he lets it
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: rip now, so you can count on that.
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: And he's in it.
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: He's kind of a reflection of their their team and
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: their coach. I mean, he's a tough, gritty, competitive guy.
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: Now they're running the ball to help protecting and you
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: got to talk. We'll get into that maybe further here,
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: but that the Dallas come in or what coach knows
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: or Jeff knows better pronunciation than me, but this cat
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: can run to now so and they're not gonna get
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: away from that. They're committed to running the ball.
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: We're talking about Kamanie Vydell. That's why I am Yesdell.
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: I was thinking that might be a strong I didn't
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: know if it was a company or not, but I
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: was looking.
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: At a former Denver Bronco player. We've got plenty to
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: get to. We'll return.
• 16:17
  Speaker 5: We'll take a look at the Chargers defense what they
• 16:19
  Speaker 5: have to offer, and it's a lot, especially up front
• 16:22
  Speaker 5: in the front seven.
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: Well, I think the biggest concern is the one that
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: sits in the back end. Oh okay, where's that number
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: three James. We'll look at that guy too. How about that.
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: We'll cover it all when we come back on ten

• 17:02
  Speaker 5: each and every Thursday. This week, the Jaguars hosts the
• 17:05
  Speaker 5: LA Chargers first meeting since the twenty twenty two AFC
• 17:10
  Speaker 5: Wild Card playoff game, the wild comeback here at the
• 17:13
  Speaker 5: Bank and we take a look now at the Chargers defense.
• 17:18
  Speaker 5: There's what a couple guys left from that team, right,
• 17:21
  Speaker 5: Khalil Mack was on that team twenty twenty two. Derwin
• 17:24
  Speaker 5: James was on that team twenty twenty two as well.
• 17:26
  Speaker 5: He let the team and tackles that day. The Chargers probably.
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: The best sniff out of screenplayer I've seen in a
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: long long time. Talking about Derwin James, the guy that
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: can do it all. This group is talented on all
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: three levels. I mean Mac right now still had He's
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: got four sacks, I mean so and he's not their
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: leading sackers. So I mean they've got talent on all
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: of the levels as far as that's concerned right now
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: and really peaking right now.
• 17:50
  Speaker 5: As a defense, Towey Polo two is their leading sack guy,
• 17:54
  Speaker 5: big defensive lineman from USC.
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, if you have. Khalil Mack's getting a little I
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: don't want to say all old, but he's still good player.
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: I mean, looking at his numbers, one hundred and eleven
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: point five career sacks, I mean that's phenomenal. Just a
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: couple of years ago he had seventeen back in twenty
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: three force fumbles thirty four in his career. That's four.
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: That's being productive and active for dangers. That's what you
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: want that's.
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: A great I mean, just if you look at the sacks,
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: the force fumble ratio, I mean, that's tremendous, tremendous, great player,
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: great player.
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: Inst In their last three game win streak, this team's
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: won three games in a row defensively, They've had twelve sacks,
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: they've had four takeaways, and they're sixteen percent the opponent
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: is sixteen percent successful on third down, and so they're
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: peaking right now. They've gone eight quarters without allowing or
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: they went eight quarters with out allowing a touchdown. I mean,
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: the Pittsburgh scored with about three minutes left in the
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: game after being dominated by this defense the last ball game.
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: So uh, this is a very formidable defense, without a doubt.
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: They're they're ranked fourth in total defense. I think their
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: third and pass defense, I think they're eighth and third
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: down defense. So uh, but they're seventeenth in the run game,
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: and we're you know, our run game continues to be solid.
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: So we've got to establish that run game. In my opinion,
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: starting out and starting fast, I.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: Would I would put this up there is arguably one
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: of the biggest challenges for this Jaguars offense this year.
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: I mean, just going back to even last week Houston,
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: I put this Chargers team right up there with challenging defense.
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: This is the number one defense in the league. I know,
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: and I think I think the Chargers Seahawks are good too.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: Those three tremendous. The Rams are pretty good too that day, Yeah,
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: but they're not I mean statistics there. I mean, they
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: got two really great anyway, so compete. But I think
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: that the one guy that I think if you were
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: to ask Liam Cohen, you know, or Grant Yudinsky the
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: offensive coordinator, what guy changes the game for you, like
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: the game plan, I bet they would say that it's
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: Derwin James. He's a guy that's I mean, he's just
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: he goes into that category.
• 20:12
  Speaker 7: Kid.
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: There's great athletes everywhere in the National Football League. But
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: then there's the great athletes. Of all these great athletes,
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: the guys that are head and shoulders above everybody else.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: It seems like, you know, because like for example, when
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: we were all in high school, there was somebody that
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: was just like a freak of nature, right right, and
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: then you get to college, you know, there's a couple
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: of freaks of nature's in the NFL kind of everybody's
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: a freaking nature, but there's still freaks of nature even
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: in the NFL. James is one of those guys.
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: He's a freaking freaks, that's for sure.
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: He can play safety, he can play linebacker, he can
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: play nickel. He could probably play edge rusher.
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: He could.
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: I agree, he's that good.
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: No, he can do everything you want.
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: I mean, he is a defensive coordinator or coaches dream
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: and they don't come around often. They have the multiplicity
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: of production that the Jeff's talking about. I mean, like
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: I said, I you know, you want to run screens
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: this cattle, this cat will wreck him quick. I mean,
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: he's one of the best I've ever seen.
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: So the only issue he's ever had is just like
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: in his career, staying healthy, you know, as far as
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: like you know, the consistency of being on the field,
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: because he's missed some time because of injury. But his
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: level of play is exceptional. He's uh, he's a load too.
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: He Polotu is also a really good player as an
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: edge rusher. When you look at him, you go, man,
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: he's kind of short and squatty, you know when you
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: look at him, But the guy's football player. Where's number
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: forty five for all you Jaguar fans that are watching
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: this game coming up on Sunday, And he's one of
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: those guys that you better give Walker a little a
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: little extra health this week.
• 21:50
  Speaker 5: And let's be honest with the Jags O line. There's
• 21:52
  Speaker 5: a bunch of guys on the injury report this year.
• 21:54
  Speaker 5: I know by the way, I know, well, here's okay
• 21:56
  Speaker 5: one of them. Walker Little is not one of them.
• 21:58
  Speaker 5: But go back to the last week, and there was
• 22:02
  Speaker 5: a guy by the name of Hunter, Yeah, Daneil Hunter
• 22:05
  Speaker 5: who might have heard of it, who.
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: Was wrecking a lot of tackles days and and really
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: gave Walker Little all he could handle.
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: And then saw yeah, and this in two heeks, like
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: you just talked about, he's an eight sack guy. So
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: uh so far, so, like you said, number forty five,
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: keep an eye on him, and for our guys are
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: a little banged up, let's get a dose of holy
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: water out there, because we got to get him back home.
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: I mean no, but I mean truly, we got to
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: get him back out there. There's no doubt this.
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: As Jeff said, this group's got players at every level
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: there are productive and in their statistics like I agree
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: with you. It's one of the very best defenses right now,
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: and we got to take advantage of that.
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: Now, the key numbers that I always kind of look
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: at when I look at a defense, I mean total defense, right,
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: and that's fourth. And I know you mentioned some of
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: these numbers. Points allowed obviously is a big one. Third
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: down percentage is always a big one. In that red zone, right,
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: I mean some of those specialty areas right against the past,
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: you know, total defense four against past five, red zone
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: three to third down defense four points allowed eighth. I mean,
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: that's that's a top tier defense, top tier defense. And
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: right now this Jaguars offense is struggling to find its way.
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: And then now you add these injuries that you just mentioned,
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: and some questions at tight end, some questions at wide
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: receiver about who's going to be available, who's not going
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: to be available.
• 23:25
  Speaker 5: Did Parker Washington not practice yesterday, but he was in
• 23:29
  Speaker 5: the open period today. He was back out there, at
• 23:31
  Speaker 5: least in a limited capacity. The report will come out
• 23:34
  Speaker 5: at like seven o'clock tonight.
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: Let me speak the obvious here that's concerning Yeah, right,
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: he's your best weapon, he's your best football player right now,
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: Anton Harrison was not out there again today. Though that's
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: not good either, right tackle. I mean, look, number eleven
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: is your best football player right now.
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: Sure had a productive day the other day by far.
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: The return Hue special special.
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: I mean, he's on his way to go to the
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: Pro Bowl because the return he has. He had five
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: five guys that were unblocked, and they came in two waves.
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: It was one and three. And I did this in
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: the film room. There were three that he kind of
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: stuttered and waited for him and then put a juke
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: on him and then made all three like go all
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: completely to the left out of the play. He takes
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: care of them. Then he straightens up his return. Now
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: you got another two guys that are unblocked, and then
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: he gives them a little deep to the left and
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: cuts to the right. One of them almost breaks a leg.
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: I think it was a long snapper lovato, poor guy. No,
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: let me tell you, like a fool.
• 24:35
  Speaker 6: No.
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: I thought there was gonna be some injuries on it
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: myself too. I mean, jeez, real, pete. They were cracking
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: out there, I mean in terms of their bodies trying
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: to get back into the.
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: Tort Nobody laid a hint laid a hand at all
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: and and I'm here to tell you, Okay, go back
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: to the forty nine Ers game. The part return for
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: a touchdown. Great blocking, great, that was great blocking. This
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: one not so great. This was great by Parker Washington
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: kind of set it all up. Yeah, and when now ran,
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: everybody think of beauty.
• 25:02
  Speaker 5: We'll see what happens to the injury report comes out
• 25:05
  Speaker 5: a little later this afternoon, a little later in the show,
• 25:07
  Speaker 5: we'll take a look at yesterday's as well.
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: Duff, it's a big ball game. They're all big. It's
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: the NFL. I get that.
• 25:14
  Speaker 5: However, in terms of the AFC playoff race and seating
• 25:18
  Speaker 5: and all that, the Chargers right now the five seed
• 25:21
  Speaker 5: and they're chasing Denver in the AFC West. They've got
• 25:24
  Speaker 5: a lot, certainly to play for. The Jaguars certainly do too.
• 25:28
  Speaker 5: They are the seven seed currently in the AFC playoff picture.
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: With eight games to go.
• 25:32
  Speaker 5: Home game only game in Jacksonville between what October? What
• 25:38
  Speaker 5: was that thirty five days ago? It was the last
• 25:40
  Speaker 5: game here in this stadium.
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: Seems like months ago.
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: I know it was literally a month ago.
• 25:45
  Speaker 5: So how about some keys for a Jaguars victory in
• 25:47
  Speaker 5: the return home.
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: Well, let me say this. It's going to start first
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: with playing sixty minutes. I mean, you know, we always
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: use the word finish, but we have to finish, you know.
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: I mean the number one stats for in ball or
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: scoring offense and scoring defense. And we just talked earlier
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: in the show about the fourth quarter and how we
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: have not been effective in scoring defense, in scoring offense
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: in the fourth quarter. So not just the fourth quarter
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: sixty minutes, but let's win the fourth quarter, but sixty
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: minutes of our best, you know, and let's play to
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: win this game, and they have been I don't misinterpret,
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: but I mean, just be as aggressive in our execution
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: as possible.
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: Again, let it rip. That should be kind of the theme.
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: I love that one. I have t shirt let it rip.
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: I know that, But I mean that's the way to
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: go right now. Defensively, we got to affect this quarterback.
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: Can't let this guy get going either with his legs
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: or with his arm right now, and eliminate duck galleys
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: because he can find him. I'm talking about areas where
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: he can now take it up inside between our offensive
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: linemen and game yards rushing.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: That'll be you know, I think very very big keys
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: for us.
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: And then you know, on both sides, let's be productive
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: and win the early downs, put ourselves in situations where
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: third down we can make big plays and move the
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: change on offense and get off the field on defense.

• 27:25
  Speaker 3: up on a round ten, but I knew I could,
• 27:29
  Speaker 3: I could have gone. I knew I could feel that,
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: I could feel it by coming over my way.
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: So all good.

• 28:11
  Speaker 7: Yeah, it's definitely a test. I mean it's every week
• 28:14
  Speaker 7: is a test of your your team and your locker
• 28:16
  Speaker 7: room and your culture. I mean in this league it's,
• 28:18
  Speaker 7: you know, win or lose. It's always it's a challenge.
• 28:21
  Speaker 7: It's it's hard to win. It's as you can see,
• 28:24
  Speaker 7: every it's a week to week league and you got
• 28:25
  Speaker 7: to bring your best and you got to finish these games.
• 28:27
  Speaker 7: I think it's a learning lesson for our team. I
• 28:29
  Speaker 7: mean we've played fairly well in once four games this
• 28:32
  Speaker 7: year if you look at especially compared to last year.
• 28:35
  Speaker 7: That was something that we struggled with and made that improvement. Obviously,
• 28:38
  Speaker 7: we didn't get it done last week. You know, we
• 28:39
  Speaker 7: didn't finish the game well, and we own that and
• 28:42
  Speaker 7: we have to move on and go, you know, go
• 28:44
  Speaker 7: try to beat a really good Chargers team this week.
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: That is quarterback Trevor Lawrence. Earlier this week, full press conferences.
• 28:50
  Speaker 5: All week long, and locker rooms sound at Jaguars dot

• 29:09
  Speaker 5: Kinnie Stevens, Jaguars reporter, steps in now.
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: Good afternoon, Kyle.
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: I'm in the seat. Thanks to JP for all that
• 29:16
  Speaker 4: locker room sound too. I was at lunch today during
• 29:18
  Speaker 4: locker room, so he helped me out.
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: I didn't realize that. I didn't know that, you know.
• 29:23
  Speaker 4: How well as I get a little angry. So when
• 29:26
  Speaker 4: we have late life, I got to get in there.
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: Oh, trust me, I sit by here. We don't need that.
• 29:30
  Speaker 4: No, no one needed.
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: That Snooker's commercial angry thing that was so good, so good,
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: love it.
• 29:37
  Speaker 5: So hey, you know what, and plenty to take out
• 29:40
  Speaker 5: of that locker room this week after a nineteen point
• 29:42
  Speaker 5: blown lead in the fourth quarter last week. And hey,
• 29:46
  Speaker 5: there's no rest for the weary. He's just going to
• 29:48
  Speaker 5: keep on moving and bounce back and curious to see
• 29:50
  Speaker 5: how they do that this week.
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I was kind of thinking about it a little
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: Bit's what we've seen so far from them this year,
• 29:56
  Speaker 4: and they have bounced back when they've played well, it's
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: almost when they're they're they've had success that they haven't
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: been playing as well, right when they beat the forty
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: nine ers and they beat the Chiefs and then kind
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: of the let down. So maybe this will be something
• 30:09
  Speaker 4: that rallies them together a little bit. But also the
• 30:11
  Speaker 4: injuries are kind of getting to that point now where yes,
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: everyone's injured, but now it's affecting your lineup. It's just
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: it truly is both sides of the football, but specifically
• 30:21
  Speaker 4: the secondary has just been really difficult. I think at
• 30:23
  Speaker 4: this point there there's probably four people they would really
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: like out there right now that they don't have at least,
• 30:29
  Speaker 4: and it's noticeable, so you have to play with who
• 30:33
  Speaker 4: you have. But that's of note. Also a couple of
• 30:36
  Speaker 4: names popping up. I know Parker Washington was on yesterday,
• 30:38
  Speaker 4: didn't practice, so that's concern when you finally kind of
• 30:41
  Speaker 4: see him coming into his own and on offense, that's
• 30:43
  Speaker 4: really all you saw last week. So if he doesn't
• 30:45
  Speaker 4: play that's concerning against the Chargers as well. And yeah,
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: I'm focused a little more inward as opposed to The
• 30:51
  Speaker 4: Chargers are a great football team, and obviously they're prepped
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: for that. But I think a lot of the Jaguars
• 30:56
  Speaker 4: problems are themselves now.
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: The one matchup that you mentioned the defensive backs and
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: the injuries that they have there. The matchup that I'm
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: worried about is the Ladi McConkie match up. Oh yeah, sure,
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: whoever is trying to cover him. I think he's an
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: exceptional young wide receiver you don't want on.
• 31:14
  Speaker 5: It's not a man coverage with him, Like, nobody's gonna
• 31:16
  Speaker 5: chase him around the field all day, are they.
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: That's why you wish he had Travis Hunter? Yeah, I
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: mean that would be I think a Marquee match up
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: Travis Hunter versus lat McConkie. But I'm fortunately not going
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: to get that because of the surgery that Travis had
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: on his lco. But you know, and right now the
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: Jaguars back end is I mean, is there any consistency there?
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: Greg Newsom hasn't been great since he was acquired, still
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: trying to get it together. Terrek Brown has been kind
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: of just eh. I thought Jarion played a pretty good
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: game this past game. I thought the call in the
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: end zone against Christian Kirk was a total BS call.
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: Thought it was a good play. Can he grab his arm? No,
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: because Christian Kirk extended his arm and then Jari and
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: actually went to knock it off and then kind of
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: had it down. But look, if you're gonna call a penalty,
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: then you got to call Christian Kirk for the push off. Okay,
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: you know, because trust me, I'm fair now. I mean,
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: just like Trayvon, I'm like, oh the flag. That's a
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: bad play by Trayvon. I mean it's very obvious. So
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: I know I wear two colored glasses sometimes, but I
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: think on that one and then I think the safeties
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: miss Eric Murray in a huge way. It's huge.
• 32:29
  Speaker 4: That's where my focus really is. Just the safeties feel
• 32:32
  Speaker 4: like they don't have the leadership factor out there, at
• 32:35
  Speaker 4: least from my point of view.
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: Lewis dew He's not lighting on fire. I also think
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: Antonio Johnson sometimes gets, you know, a little all the
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: right spots, you know, and that's it's that's a challenge
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: right now for the defense. So you know, we're we're
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: focusing a lot on the pass rush. Everybody wants to
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: talk about the pass rush, which is real important and
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: it's it's real, but the old saying it goes hand
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: in hand right, Russian cover.
• 33:00
  Speaker 5: Russian cover sometimes depends on which position group you ask
• 33:04
  Speaker 5: is more important.
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: If you ask the d lineman, they would say the
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: coverage needs to be better. If he asked the coverage,
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: they would say, our past rush needs to be there
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: right now. Quietly they'd be like to point that that guy.
• 33:15
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's how it goes offensively. There could be some
• 33:19
  Speaker 5: good news en Britain. Strange the window opened for him
• 33:23
  Speaker 5: after four weeks on i R. So he's back out
• 33:26
  Speaker 5: of the practice field. No guarantees for this week, but
• 33:29
  Speaker 5: they've got twenty one days from when that window opened
• 33:32
  Speaker 5: earlier this week for him to practice to figure out
• 33:34
  Speaker 5: whether he's going to be able to go or not.
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: So they listed him out yesterday.
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: I think limited.
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: Limited, limited, So that's kind of what it is. I mean,
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: he's a he's a big difference maker. But you know,
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: I'm cautious about this one because.
• 33:48
  Speaker 4: You want to rush it either, you.
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: Know, Yeah, you're talking about what hip flexer or whatever
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: it was that he had YEP, which is it's not
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: like it's a fracture. In six weeks he ready to go.
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: You know, soft tissue injuries can be the ones that
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: you just don't want to hurt him again because then
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: if you have a setback, now you're talking about potentially
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: being lost for a long period of time. So sometimes
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: one extra week is like an insurance policy. Hey, look,
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: let's just make sure. And he's that type of player
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: that you don't want to play fire, play with fire
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: with his injury, I think I.
• 34:28
  Speaker 4: Think it'll if it's not this week, it'll be next.
• 34:30
  Speaker 4: I think that I assume that's part of their plan,
• 34:33
  Speaker 4: just the way he's been involved in practice from what
• 34:35
  Speaker 4: I've seen so far. But he's so valuable in so
• 34:39
  Speaker 4: many ways to the offense. It's tempting to want to
• 34:42
  Speaker 4: see him back as soon as you can because it
• 34:46
  Speaker 4: feels like his impact on the running game and then
• 34:50
  Speaker 4: also just the reliability that Trevor has in him as
• 34:53
  Speaker 4: a pass catcher. Both of those things have been missing
• 34:56
  Speaker 4: and it's very noticeable, and I think the struggles kind
• 34:59
  Speaker 4: of start when he went out, and they have never
• 35:02
  Speaker 4: really figured out a way to fully function without him.
• 35:04
  Speaker 4: Yet so he's just such a crucial part of it.
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: I don't know if there's another guy on this team
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: that when he steps into the huddle he changes the huddle.
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: I think Brenton Strange is one of those guys I do.
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: I think when he's in the huddle, he's got a swag,
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: a confidence about him. Not that he's you know, lifting
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: guys up. Come yeah, raw, raw, It's just that when
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: he's in your huddle, you know that he is. He's
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: a dog. It's his place style. You know that he's
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: a dog. And I think that that can elevate the
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: others in the huddle when he's in there.
• 35:39
  Speaker 5: Time out for the Jaguars. Defensive coverage of the game
• 35:41
  Speaker 5: presented by GEH Government Employees Health Association Benefits for federal
• 35:46
  Speaker 5: employees and retirees. We take a look at the quarterback
• 35:49
  Speaker 5: matchup this week. Justin Herbert, of course, in year number
• 35:52
  Speaker 5: six for the LA Chargers, a record just above five
• 35:56
  Speaker 5: hundred just under twenty four thousand passing yards in his
• 36:00
  Speaker 5: one hundred and fifty six touchdowns fifty three picks. Trevor
• 36:04
  Speaker 5: Lawrence on the other side fifth season as about half
• 36:08
  Speaker 5: the amount of touchdown passes the same amount of interceptions,
• 36:11
  Speaker 5: trying to get things together. A lot of changes of
• 36:13
  Speaker 5: course in Jacksonville in his career and now justin Herbert
• 36:16
  Speaker 5: this week. Stuff was talking about this earlier. Kay his
• 36:20
  Speaker 5: ability yes down the field, he takes hits. He's the
• 36:23
  Speaker 5: most second most sec quarterback in the NFL this year,
• 36:27
  Speaker 5: but he's number one completions and attempts. He's number two
• 36:30
  Speaker 5: in passing yards. I think he's third touchdown passes. He's
• 36:33
  Speaker 5: not scared of that pressure and when he can avoid it,
• 36:37
  Speaker 5: he can run with it too. The leading quarterback rusher
• 36:39
  Speaker 5: in the league is not.
• 36:41
  Speaker 4: Just like everything you want in a quarterback, right like
• 36:43
  Speaker 4: they're going to stand in there and deliver the ball
• 36:44
  Speaker 4: no matter what, and then you know, if need be,
• 36:46
  Speaker 4: he'll run. But he, as you mentioned, gets beat up
• 36:49
  Speaker 4: a lot and still finds the targets that he's looking for,
• 36:53
  Speaker 4: waits for it to develop a second longer, even if
• 36:56
  Speaker 4: that means he gets hit. And I imagine if that's
• 36:59
  Speaker 4: a teammate of yours, you're even more excited to play
• 37:01
  Speaker 4: with him because you know he's out there doing whatever
• 37:03
  Speaker 4: he has to do to see the team succeed as well.
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: He's he's a dog. I want to clarify the meaning
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: of the term dog obviously, right, there's two dogs. Okay,
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: there's two dogs in the neighborhood. Okay, Okay. One of
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: them's a dog that is with a W. And that's
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: with a W. That's a good thing, like a guy
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: that's gonna go to war with you and it's gonna
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: bring it. That's a damn good dog. Okay. He's the
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: guy that you want to have that's got your back. Okay,
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: Then there's he's just a dog. Okay, that's a different
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: that's a difference do O G O G, but not
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: of the canine variety. That's the kind that he is
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: the one that you don't want on your team, that
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: he doesn't come to fight and he doesn't have your back.
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: He's going to act like he's got your back, but
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: then at a critical moment he just whimpers away. So
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: it's more voice inflection than it is pronunciation of dog
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: can be a Kenny voice. And he's a dog, dog, Dog,
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: he's a dog.
• 38:06
  Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, but this guy is the he's a
• 38:10
  Speaker 5: positive dog.
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: He's a dog. Let me look at the numbers.
• 38:13
  Speaker 4: Clear, he makes crazy.
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence look like he's got a lot of work
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: to do. I mean, the numbers speak for themselves. Absolutely
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: got a lot of work to do. A lot of
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: comparisons between those two as well in terms of athletic
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: you know, pocket passers for the most part, although Herbert
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: Herbert's evolved a little bit with that being the lead
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: and rusher, but for the most part, he's been a
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: pocket passer. But you know, this is going to be
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: an interesting game too, just because it's the rematch it's been. Yeah,
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: the last meeting was the playoff game, and Trevor is
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: undefeated against Justin Herbert. And if I'm Justin Herbert, now
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: I'm a dog. I want this game.
• 38:58
  Speaker 5: Jag Wars all acts tonight, String Sports Brewery in Springfield
• 39:03
  Speaker 5: the site.

• 39:11
  Speaker 2: He's great. He's one of the most mature, thoughtful, good dudes.
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: I've always been a fan of Devin Lloyd just because
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: of how he handles his business. He works hard. You
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: can sit there and watch a practice just like today
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: and practice is over. Everybody's off field. Who's the one
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: guy out there running gassers is Devin Lloyd. I mean,
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: that's the kind of duty he is. So got great
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: respect for him and good football player, and they need
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: him to play better this week too. You know, he's
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: one of those guys too that's got some work to do.
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: Didn't play his best game last week. He's got to
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: be better this week.
• 39:53
  Speaker 5: That's tonight, seven o'clock, Fox, thirty String Sports Brewery, Jaguars

• 40:16
  Speaker 2: love Snoop Dogg. By the way, first time Herber song.
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: That's just funny story. Okay, so I was sidetracked here,
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: but that's a cool story. I can't wait. So years
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: ago when when I was with the Jets and we
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: were flying out to l A and then to play
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: the Raiders. This is when the Raiders were in l
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: A and so we fly out there early. I think
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: it was on a Friday, and uh, and then we're
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: going to do a walk through on a Saturday over
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: at the campus of USC University of Southern California the
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: great album Manter of the Great Tony I heard, So
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: we're actually turning. I believe it was on Crenshaw, but
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: I mean Crenshaw's, you know, is right there because it
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: is kind of in the hood. And all of a sudden,
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: all the guys on the bus start freaking out and
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: there's a Bentley and it's at the traffic light and
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: the windows down. There's smoke coming out of it and
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: they're Snoop dog driving them by right there. And SO
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: was like, and I'm like, who's Snoop Dogg? And of
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: course you were. I didn't know at the time, you know,

  Speaker 5: We'll see the Chargers in town for the first time
• 43:21
  Speaker 5: since the WAYFC Wildcard playoff game after the twenty twenty
• 43:24
  Speaker 5: two season. Time now for the injury report presented by
• 43:27
  Speaker 5: uf Health, the proud healthcare partner of the Jacksonville Jaguars,
• 43:31
  Speaker 5: and with the Chargers being of course on the West
• 43:33
  Speaker 5: Coast in Los Angeles, the official report will not come
• 43:37
  Speaker 5: out for Thursday's practice until around seven o'clock or so,
• 43:42
  Speaker 5: but we'll take a look at yesterday's and see where
• 43:46
  Speaker 5: we can make additions of what we saw at practice
• 43:48
  Speaker 5: today in the open media period, guys that may or
• 43:50
  Speaker 5: may not have been out there. Let's start with the
• 43:52
  Speaker 5: Chargers with they've had a few guys resting, so we're
• 43:56
  Speaker 5: not even gonna touch those guys. Lad mcconkee was limited
• 43:59
  Speaker 5: Wednesday with a ankle injury. The wide receiver Quentin Johnson
• 44:03
  Speaker 5: wide receiver shin injury limited, Dione Henley linebacker ankle injury limited,
• 44:09
  Speaker 5: Bobby Hart, a tackle with a knee issue limited as well.
• 44:13
  Speaker 5: Gats In the tight end was full Wednesday with a
• 44:16
  Speaker 5: knee injury, and he's been really good early in this season.
• 44:19
  Speaker 5: Now for the Jaguars, they have a long list, and
• 44:22
  Speaker 5: certainly on the offensive line, a bunch of guys limited
• 44:26
  Speaker 5: in Wednesday's practice. Again, no Thursday report yet, it's coming
• 44:29
  Speaker 5: out a little bit later, but Ezra Cleveland with a
• 44:31
  Speaker 5: knee an ankle issue was limited Wednesday, of course, did
• 44:34
  Speaker 5: not play in the game last week. We'll go through
• 44:37
  Speaker 5: the offensive line players first, Patrick McCarry with a knee
• 44:41
  Speaker 5: issue limited on Wednesday, Wyatt Mylem rookie guard with a
• 44:45
  Speaker 5: knee issue limited on Wednesday, and the Jaguars right tackle
• 44:52
  Speaker 5: Anton Harrison knee an ankle issue. Did not practice on Wednesday,
• 44:56
  Speaker 5: and I didn't see him out there in the open
• 44:58
  Speaker 5: media time today either, So that is not trending the
• 45:02
  Speaker 5: right way if that is in fact the case that
• 45:05
  Speaker 5: he did not practice to day. Other guys that have
• 45:07
  Speaker 5: been limited linebacker Dennis Gardak with a chest issue limited.
• 45:10
  Speaker 5: Robert Hainsey center we left out of the offensive line
• 45:12
  Speaker 5: groin issue limited on Wednesday, Jack Kaiser linebacker shoulder issue limited.
• 45:19
  Speaker 5: Greg Knew some cornerback shoulder injury limited. Another defensive back
• 45:23
  Speaker 5: on the list now, Breton Strange coming his windows open
• 45:28
  Speaker 5: with a hip issue. The tight end has missed the
• 45:30
  Speaker 5: last four weeks and limited on Wednesday. Was back out
• 45:34
  Speaker 5: there again today. Brian Thomas wide receiver, limited with an
• 45:36
  Speaker 5: ankle injury Wednesday. Parker Washington did not practice on Wednesday,
• 45:40
  Speaker 5: the wide receiver with a hamstring issue, but he was
• 45:43
  Speaker 5: out there today during open media time, at least returning punts.
• 45:48
  Speaker 5: Good to see that long list for the Jaguars Week eleven.
• 45:52
  Speaker 5: Nobody outside of here cares like the opponents don't care
• 45:55
  Speaker 5: how banged up you are. It is literally the next
• 45:58
  Speaker 5: man up, but there are a lot of next men up.
• 46:00
  Speaker 5: It feels like these.
• 46:01
  Speaker 2: Days, it's kind of what it is, and you have
• 46:03
  Speaker 2: a little bit of a luxury you know nowadays is
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: in the NFL because of the COVID situation, where you
• 46:08
  Speaker 2: can elevate guys up from the practice squad. You need
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: to go back before COVID, you didn't even have that ability,
• 46:13
  Speaker 2: you know. So yeah, I mean, look at everybody deals
• 46:16
  Speaker 2: with it. The Chargers have dealt with multiple injuries too.
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: Look at their tackle situation, look at their running back situation.
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: They're not immune. And so that's the way it is.
• 46:28
  Speaker 2: It's at that time of year, right.
• 46:30
  Speaker 5: Jaguars did make a transaction today. They waived, actually released
• 46:35
  Speaker 5: defensive tackle Collins Saunders and then have signed Branson Combs,
• 46:39
  Speaker 5: linebacker to the active roster from the practice squad. I
• 46:42
  Speaker 5: think they were out of game day elevations for Combs
• 46:45
  Speaker 5: and some other teams that have been snipping around trying
• 46:46
  Speaker 5: to stealing off that squad, and then they weren't really
• 46:49
  Speaker 5: using Saunders too much anyway, so I said, bye bye.
• 46:53
  Speaker 2: Well, Branson Combs has been doing a pretty good job
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: on special teams when he's had the opportunity, and well
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: he I think he does pretty well in space, and uh,
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: you know, in that situation, if somebody else were interested
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: in him, for example, because I think we've had this
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: question or people would have this question. Let's say let's
• 47:18
  Speaker 2: say the Texans wanted to get them. They call up
• 47:22
  Speaker 2: Branson's agent and say, hey, look, we want to go
• 47:24
  Speaker 2: ahead and sign them. Branson can leave. He doesn't have
• 47:29
  Speaker 2: to give the Jaguars a chance to sign him or
• 47:32
  Speaker 2: anything like that. He's free to leave whenever he wanted to,
• 47:36
  Speaker 2: off the practice squad.
• 47:37
  Speaker 5: I believe there's a handful of guys you can protect though,
• 47:39
  Speaker 5: right if you want to.
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: I believe. I don't know about that anyway. That's a
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: great question. I don't think you have that ability because
• 47:46
  Speaker 2: you can't take it. You can't take away a guy's
• 47:49
  Speaker 2: ability to make money. You know, you start taking and
• 47:53
  Speaker 2: taking money out of a guy's pocket. That's a problem.
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: So he get left. He could a left immediately, could
• 47:58
  Speaker 2: have left anywhere he wanted to go. You know, if
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: somebody had an interest in him. Now, now a team
• 48:03
  Speaker 2: can't come in and say, hey, look we want you
• 48:05
  Speaker 2: on our practice squad. You don't have the ability to
• 48:07
  Speaker 2: leave in that fashion. That's different, okay, But if somebody
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: wants to sign you to their active roster, you can
• 48:14
  Speaker 2: leave at will. It's about the money, JP. Can you
• 48:18
  Speaker 2: imagine if you were making ten dollars an hour and
• 48:22
  Speaker 2: somebody came to you and said Hey, look, we want
• 48:24
  Speaker 2: to pay one hundred dollars an hour, and they said, no,
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: you can't do that. You'd have a problem with that.
• 48:30
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but I mean also difference in pay now from
• 48:33
  Speaker 5: practice squad at active roster.
• 48:35
  Speaker 2: Clearly big difference in payscale. Right, he just got a
• 48:38
  Speaker 2: big fat raise.
• 48:39
  Speaker 5: Good for him, Yes, he did, certainly did big raise.
• 48:43
  Speaker 5: He's been contributing, certainly coming up Tag's HQ five o'clock
• 48:46
  Speaker 5: on the Jaguars Radio Network.
• 48:48
  Speaker 2: And what do you want to hear from James Gladstone
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: and Tony Vasselli today? I mean about how this team
• 48:55
  Speaker 2: is handling it, you know. I mean you want to
• 48:57
  Speaker 2: see a team handle the loss in a positive fashion.
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: And they're around the team all the time. I mean
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: they get to see it. You know. Are they going
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: to try to do some things differently to turn the tide,
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: so to speak, in some areas that are concerning? Yeah,
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: but I mean it's a Look, this is a you
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: always know that you're gonna deal with some type of crisis,
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: some type of adversity. You're gonna have it. It's just
• 49:27
  Speaker 2: it happens every year. It happens to the great teams too,
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: The great teams deal with it in a positive fashion.
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: So here here's that, I think the first true test
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: of adversity for this organization under the new regime. And
• 49:43
  Speaker 2: if you don't want it to linger, because if it lingers,
• 49:47
  Speaker 2: then that's a bigger problem. You want it to resolve itself.
• 49:50
  Speaker 2: But it's it's hard to resolve it when the next
• 49:53
  Speaker 2: team you face is a pretty damn good football team,
• 49:56
  Speaker 2: and the Chargers are a pretty damn good football team.
• 49:58
  Speaker 5: By the way, Yes, every two they teams can designate
• 50:01
  Speaker 5: four players as protected, so you can't be signed from
• 50:03
  Speaker 5: that day until kickoff from the practice squad, right.
• 50:06
  Speaker 2: But the following week, no you can't. They can get stock.
• 50:09
  Speaker 2: There you go. We're back in a moment.
• 50:10
  Speaker 5: Jaggs HQ coming up, James Gladstone, Tony BUSSELLI and this
• 50:15
  Speaker 5: is Jaguars Happy Hour.
