0:23
Speaker 1: Bevil joining us as the Jaguars are preparing to head
0:26
Speaker 1: to New York to face the Jets in week sixteen.
0:30
Speaker 1: First off, welcome to the show, Daryl. It's good to
0:32
Speaker 1: have you man. Yeah, good to be here first time.
0:35
Speaker 1: So let's see how we do here. No doubt it's
0:37
Speaker 1: gonna be great. Of course, a wild week. Let's start
0:40
Speaker 1: with that before we move forward here. Last week you
0:42
Speaker 1: found out in the wee hours of the morning, the
0:44
Speaker 1: official word came down that Urban was gone and you
0:47
Speaker 1: were the interim head coach. So you wake up Thursday morning.
0:51
Speaker 1: Oh wait a minute, I'm running this thing now. How
0:53
Speaker 1: were the last two three, four days preparation going into
0:57
Speaker 1: that game last week? Yeah, it was. It was a whirlwind.
0:59
Speaker 1: You know because still, um, I'm still focusing on the
1:02
Speaker 1: offensive part of the game as well as you know,
1:04
Speaker 1: taking on the new role. But um, you know, as
1:07
Speaker 1: I said earlier, they coached coach Urban had done a
1:09
Speaker 1: great job hiring the staff, so there's a lot of
1:11
Speaker 1: guys who were able to to help out and pick
1:13
Speaker 1: up in those roles that they needed to. And um,
1:16
Speaker 1: you know, once once you kind of got through a
1:17
Speaker 1: little bit of the chaos and the change, I thought
1:19
Speaker 1: the week went well, Darryl. The support of the staff
1:22
Speaker 1: is a is a must when you have a transition
1:24
Speaker 1: like you dealt with last week, and and you talked
1:27
Speaker 1: about how everybody kind of jumped in and and helped out.
1:30
Speaker 1: That had to be a big help to you. Yeah,
1:32
Speaker 1: without question. You know, Um, you know, our defense has
1:34
Speaker 1: been doing a nice job. Joe Colin has has really
1:37
Speaker 1: led the way with with those guys. But um, you know,
1:39
Speaker 1: you got Charlie Strong, You've got Chris Ash, you know,
1:41
Speaker 1: guys that have had had head coaching experience. And then
1:44
Speaker 1: on the offensive side of the ball, you know, great
1:46
Speaker 1: coaches in their own right over there with Brian Schottheimer
1:49
Speaker 1: and you know, and George Warhop and a lot of
1:51
Speaker 1: guys that were, you know, just really able to take
1:53
Speaker 1: up their roles and really, um, you know, allow me
1:56
Speaker 1: to do a little bit of different things. Um, but
1:59
Speaker 1: you know, still had to work on the on the
2:00
Speaker 1: offensive side because I was gonna call the game because
2:02
Speaker 1: it was a little bit later in the week, and
2:04
Speaker 1: I think it was fair to put it on anybody.
2:05
Speaker 1: So um, you know, like I thought, everybody did a
2:08
Speaker 1: really nice job and really help me out. Having the
2:10
Speaker 1: experience of being the interim head coach last year of
2:13
Speaker 1: the Detroit line had to help you a tremendous amount.
2:15
Speaker 1: And I'm sure you learned from that. Having said that,
2:18
Speaker 1: what was the first thing you felt was important to
2:21
Speaker 1: do once you were named the interim head coach? Well,
2:24
Speaker 1: I thought it was really important just to talk to
2:26
Speaker 1: the team, to be able to get in front of him.
2:27
Speaker 1: You know, I'm I'm up in front of the offense
2:29
Speaker 1: every you know, basically every day, but to be in
2:31
Speaker 1: front of the whole team as a group, I thought
2:33
Speaker 1: that was really important. So, um, you know, the day
2:35
Speaker 1: we found out you, Trent started off with with the
2:38
Speaker 1: meeting and then I was able to dress them for
2:40
Speaker 1: the first time, and you know, just to be able
2:41
Speaker 1: to give them, um, you know, some of my thoughts
2:43
Speaker 1: and and the mindset that that I would like him
2:46
Speaker 1: to go to go to work with. And uh, you know,
2:48
Speaker 1: I thought it went well as well. Interim head coach
2:50
Speaker 1: Gerald Bebel with us on the Jaguars Coaches Show. Have
2:53
Speaker 1: you made any changes adjustments to the weekly schedule now
2:57
Speaker 1: going into the second week as the interim here practice
3:00
Speaker 1: schedule anything like that? Yeah, there there's you know, it's
3:03
Speaker 1: gonna be just small, nuanced things. There's not gonna be
3:06
Speaker 1: big wholesale changes, you know that. Um As you guys know,
3:09
Speaker 1: there were all the creatures of habit and you know
3:11
Speaker 1: there's routines for all these guys. So I don't want
3:13
Speaker 1: to change it too much. But there'll be subtle little things,
3:16
Speaker 1: um that that we do, you know, just when we
3:18
Speaker 1: call it up, when we don't call it up, how
3:20
Speaker 1: we transition, number of reps, um, those type of things
3:23
Speaker 1: that will change during practice. There are one of the
3:25
Speaker 1: great challenges. I think of a head coach who was
3:27
Speaker 1: is managing a roster and Trent Balky the general manager
3:30
Speaker 1: that's in place, and how much of has that helped
3:33
Speaker 1: working with him throughout this process to have a guy
3:36
Speaker 1: that has had experience and has been at the post
3:39
Speaker 1: all along. Yeah, Jeff, as you mention, you know, I
3:41
Speaker 1: was very fortunate or or unfortunate however you want to
3:44
Speaker 1: see it. You know that last year I had this experience,
3:46
Speaker 1: so um, it was my first opportunity to to really
3:50
Speaker 1: dive into the roster and all the things that go
3:52
Speaker 1: into that with the inactives and you know, every everything
3:55
Speaker 1: as a whole. So at least I had the experience.
3:57
Speaker 1: But then this season to be able to add you know,
4:00
Speaker 1: Trent ball Key on top of that, Um, a guy
4:02
Speaker 1: that has you know, immense experience and you'd be able
4:05
Speaker 1: to lean on him, you know, has has been invaluable
4:08
Speaker 1: for me as well. Alright, so Ballpark after Wednesday night's sleep,
4:11
Speaker 1: how many hours of sleep do you reckon you got
4:14
Speaker 1: before kickoff? Yeah? Um yeah, not not a lot. You know,
4:18
Speaker 1: it was, um, because there's just one that's added responsibility, right,
4:22
Speaker 1: there's a there's a lot for that. Um. But then
4:25
Speaker 1: then too, there's all those changes and then just the
4:28
Speaker 1: stuff that weighs on your mind with with those changes,
4:31
Speaker 1: you know, whether it's like Okay, I gotta now, I
4:32
Speaker 1: gotta talk to the team what what am I gonna
4:34
Speaker 1: tell these guys? And um, you know how am I
4:36
Speaker 1: gonna handle this situation? So there's a lot more going
4:38
Speaker 1: through your mind. So, um, the normal amount of sleep
4:41
Speaker 1: was that, you know, the little that we get was
4:43
Speaker 1: even a little bit less. Darryl beble with us. You know,
4:46
Speaker 1: going back to when you're coming up as a young
4:49
Speaker 1: football player and going to college and then get in
4:52
Speaker 1: finally get into the coaching ranks. I mean, this is
4:54
Speaker 1: an opportunity. It may not be what you had planned
4:57
Speaker 1: it to be, but it is still an opportunity to
5:00
Speaker 1: be a head coach in the National Football League. Take
5:03
Speaker 1: us back to what point did you realize, you know what,
5:05
Speaker 1: this is what I want to do as a professional,
5:08
Speaker 1: be a head coach in the NFL. Well, you know,
5:11
Speaker 1: my dad's a high school coach and so I grew
5:13
Speaker 1: up with I think that's a little bit in my blood.
5:15
Speaker 1: But um, you know, I'll tell you to this days,
5:18
Speaker 1: if if they would give me a helmet right now
5:19
Speaker 1: and let me go play, I would definitely go play.
5:22
Speaker 1: You know, I probably can't do anymore and maybe I
5:23
Speaker 1: got one hit left in me, but um, I would
5:26
Speaker 1: I would do that first. But um, I love this game,
5:29
Speaker 1: and I always knew that I wanted to be able
5:31
Speaker 1: to stay around it. And so once once I did
5:33
Speaker 1: get done playing, to be able to step into the
5:35
Speaker 1: role and and um, you know, really start diving into
5:38
Speaker 1: the coaching. But I think really when it hit me
5:40
Speaker 1: and I got the bug was I was in Green
5:42
Speaker 1: Bay with young, young QC coach and uh, you know
5:46
Speaker 1: the Tom Rossley gave me an opportunity to to give,
5:49
Speaker 1: you know, give him some suggestions for plays and particularly
5:51
Speaker 1: for third down. And I'll tell you what. The first
5:53
Speaker 1: time that you know, he takes your play, put it
5:56
Speaker 1: in the game plan, and then it gets called in
5:57
Speaker 1: the game and you see it work. I mean it
5:59
Speaker 1: was like lights went on everywhere and it's like, oh man,
6:02
Speaker 1: this is the coolest thing. Um and um, you know,
6:04
Speaker 1: that's just forever something I wanted to do. What year
6:06
Speaker 1: was that in Green Bay? Where you're a quality control coach?
6:09
Speaker 1: Because you use the term QC, A lot of people
6:11
Speaker 1: may not know what that means. What year was at
6:13
Speaker 1: at Green Bay? Yeah, so it was two I was
6:15
Speaker 1: there two thousand to two thousand and five, But the
6:18
Speaker 1: first three three seasons I think I was a q
6:20
Speaker 1: C guy. Um and then in quarterback coach after that
6:23
Speaker 1: for three. That was back when you were making big
6:25
Speaker 1: money as a QC. Right, yeah, not so much, not
6:28
Speaker 1: so much. How that works that now? I did notice
6:31
Speaker 1: that he's always an athlete. He said he probably couldn't
6:33
Speaker 1: go back in for another player. Oh you give me one,
6:35
Speaker 1: you give me a helmet. I'm in. I'm in. But
6:37
Speaker 1: I could probably only last one hit. Now, I love it.
6:40
Speaker 1: Putting ahead that Darry'll stick around. We'll come back and
6:43
Speaker 1: get into this Jaguars offense. Some changes in the play calling.
6:46
Speaker 1: Moving ahead. This is the Jaguars Coaches Show on the
6:49
Speaker 1: Jaguars Radio Network. Welcome back. The Jaguars Coaches Show continues

7:12
Speaker 1: Jeff Flagman and interim head coach Darryl bevil Is the
7:15
Speaker 1: Jaguars space to New York Jets coming up. And big
7:19
Speaker 1: change this week is we mentioned just a moment ago.
7:22
Speaker 1: You don't want to make all those changes in the
7:24
Speaker 1: play calling last week on short notice. Now you've made
7:28
Speaker 1: the change, Brian Schottenheimer, We'll dial it up on the
7:31
Speaker 1: offensive side of the football this week, you guys go
7:33
Speaker 1: back a long way. How how different will that be
7:36
Speaker 1: for you without the button to push as as you
7:40
Speaker 1: will on offense? Be really different? You know. I, um,
7:44
Speaker 1: you know, since I've you know, I mean, I don't
7:46
Speaker 1: even know how many years now it's been, but once
7:48
Speaker 1: I became an offensive coordinator, being calling plays every since,
7:51
Speaker 1: So it will be the first time for this Sunday
7:53
Speaker 1: will be the first time that I'm not doing that.
7:55
Speaker 1: But uh, you know, I just I really thought about
7:57
Speaker 1: it long and hard, and uh, you know, I last
8:00
Speaker 1: year when I did it with Detroit, I continued to
8:02
Speaker 1: call plays. But this year, you know, with the with
8:05
Speaker 1: the situation, I just feel it's really important to be
8:07
Speaker 1: able to focus a little bit more on the team
8:09
Speaker 1: and with that role. And then also to have a
8:11
Speaker 1: guy like Brian Schottenheimer on the staff who you know,
8:14
Speaker 1: has done this at a really high level. You know,
8:16
Speaker 1: um broke records over there at Seattle, uh with with
8:19
Speaker 1: those guys and and have had really good offenses. So
8:22
Speaker 1: just to get just to be able to rely on him.
8:24
Speaker 1: We've been working hand in hand this whole year anyway,
8:27
Speaker 1: and I'm really confident and comfortable with what he's gonna
8:29
Speaker 1: be able to do. And I'm I'm excited, you know,
8:31
Speaker 1: I'm excited to see what he's gonna bring to this thing. Now.
8:34
Speaker 1: You guys followed each other as coordinators in Seattle. How
8:37
Speaker 1: much connections did you have before here though, Like actual
8:39
Speaker 1: connection with it and not not a lot, you know. Um,
8:42
Speaker 1: you know, I always mess with him a little bit.
8:43
Speaker 1: I was at Yukon, he was at he was at Syracuse,
8:46
Speaker 1: and we were recruiting up you know, up in the
8:48
Speaker 1: Northeast and then down and down in Florida as well.
8:50
Speaker 1: We ran into each other a couple of times, and
8:52
Speaker 1: you know, he had the he had the bigger logo
8:53
Speaker 1: on than I did, you know, so he's gonna get
8:55
Speaker 1: the guys a little bit easier than the guy at Yukon.
8:57
Speaker 1: But um, he uh, that's where we first met, and
9:00
Speaker 1: we've kind of our career has kind of mirrored each
9:02
Speaker 1: other a little bit. You know. We both came QC guys,
9:04
Speaker 1: both came quarterback coaches, both became coordinators. But I do
9:07
Speaker 1: think it's really interesting, you know too, that that I
9:10
Speaker 1: was at Seattle. Um, you know, we did really well
9:12
Speaker 1: there and then he took it over and he continued
9:14
Speaker 1: that success that we had. Um. So, you know, I
9:17
Speaker 1: think that's an interesting dynamic. I don't know how many
9:18
Speaker 1: times that's happened before, you know, and then to have
9:21
Speaker 1: two coordinators go together to the next place. But UM,
9:24
Speaker 1: I'm really lucky to have him, Darrell. I think every
9:26
Speaker 1: everywhere you go, you always learned from people that you
9:29
Speaker 1: work with. And you guys both had the opportunity to
9:31
Speaker 1: work for Pete Carrol in Seattle. I learned a tremendous
9:34
Speaker 1: amount from Pete. Pete was my first defensive coach when
9:37
Speaker 1: I made to switch a defensive in his first year
9:39
Speaker 1: in the National Football League. Going back to in your
9:42
Speaker 1: time in Seattle with Pete Carroll, what did you learn
9:46
Speaker 1: from Pete that helps you be a head coach? Jeff,
9:48
Speaker 1: we might be here a while, you know, if if
9:50
Speaker 1: I had to tell all of the things I learned
9:52
Speaker 1: from but I mean, what a great experience. You know.
9:54
Speaker 1: First of all, I think the thing that Um impressed
9:57
Speaker 1: me the most about him was his consistency. You know,
9:59
Speaker 1: he really has um a foundation and a philosophy that
10:02
Speaker 1: he believes in, and then he's going to preach that
10:04
Speaker 1: each and every day. That's the first thing. The second
10:06
Speaker 1: thing is is is you know he's a glass half
10:09
Speaker 1: full guy. Um, you know, he's he can turn anything around,
10:13
Speaker 1: you can. You know. I remember I was I was
10:15
Speaker 1: kind of joking with our guys. You know. We went
10:17
Speaker 1: in the staff meeting one time and it was one
10:19
Speaker 1: of the first ones that I've been to. And at
10:21
Speaker 1: the end of the staffing I looked at the other
10:23
Speaker 1: guy as I said, I think we just got yelled at,
10:25
Speaker 1: But I I couldn't tell because you know how well
10:28
Speaker 1: he spends it and and it's so positive with his message.
10:31
Speaker 1: But um, you know, I think those are just a
10:33
Speaker 1: couple of things that that really stood out to me
10:35
Speaker 1: with him. Yeah, he was a guy that that always
10:37
Speaker 1: had tremendous energy, who had a basketball bouncing around the
10:40
Speaker 1: building all the time, and and loved James Brown. And
10:43
Speaker 1: it was just James Brown's energy and the music with it.
10:46
Speaker 1: I mean that was just Pete Carroll. So uh boy,
10:49
Speaker 1: I totally agree with you there. You can learn so
10:51
Speaker 1: much from a guy like that. Yeah, great, great energy.
10:54
Speaker 1: I mean, you know what what is he? I think
10:55
Speaker 1: he's the oldest NFL coach too, and he still brings
10:58
Speaker 1: that energy, each and every a in in all that
11:01
Speaker 1: he does. Trevor Lawrence. Let's get to the Jaguars quarterback.
11:05
Speaker 1: You know you've been with him, of course close up
11:08
Speaker 1: throughout the season. Statistics are what they are. There's a
11:11
Speaker 1: lot of you know, focus on that on the outside
11:13
Speaker 1: looking and what do you see on the inside from
11:15
Speaker 1: Trevor now three games ago? What else do you want
11:19
Speaker 1: to see from him down the stretch here? Yeah, I
11:21
Speaker 1: see a lot of development, you know, I think that's
11:23
Speaker 1: the that's the number one thing obviously with a young
11:25
Speaker 1: quarterback coming in the league. We've had a lot of
11:27
Speaker 1: conversations about all the things that they're that they're processing,
11:30
Speaker 1: all the things that they're learning with this new game.
11:33
Speaker 1: You know, I see college and NFL. I was almost
11:35
Speaker 1: two different games that we're playing. So, UM, I see
11:38
Speaker 1: him continuing to progress and and he's getting better. Um,
11:41
Speaker 1: there's still things we need to work on. You know,
11:44
Speaker 1: we'll talk about his accuracy, we'll talk about his movement
11:46
Speaker 1: in the pocket and um, but just a lot of it.
11:49
Speaker 1: But um doing a great job with with his command.
11:52
Speaker 1: You know, I think he I think he commands the
11:53
Speaker 1: huddle really well. I think he's doing a good job.
11:55
Speaker 1: When we get into tempo, Um, he could get the
11:57
Speaker 1: ball out quick with some of our relief throws. So um,
12:00
Speaker 1: I I still see a lot of growth and you
12:02
Speaker 1: don't want to continue to see more of these last
12:03
Speaker 1: three weeks. He's got so many positives that you see
12:06
Speaker 1: glimpses of throughout the year. At what point in your
12:09
Speaker 1: experience and how long does it take for I don't
12:13
Speaker 1: want to say the noise because it's not necessarily noise,
12:16
Speaker 1: but for for everything to kind of calm down to
12:19
Speaker 1: where it becomes second nature at playing the quarterback position,
12:22
Speaker 1: because it's always been of my opinion, it's the hardest
12:25
Speaker 1: position to play in all of professional sports. Without a doubt,
12:29
Speaker 1: I would agree with you, Jeff. You know that. I mean,
12:31
Speaker 1: it is a tough position. There's there's so much that
12:34
Speaker 1: goes into it, and you know the I mean, just
12:37
Speaker 1: to break it down simply, right is you you got
12:39
Speaker 1: to know everything that you're doing on your offense, and
12:41
Speaker 1: really you've got to know all everybody's job. Well, once
12:45
Speaker 1: you focus on that, then you got, oh yeah, I
12:47
Speaker 1: gotta go focus on now what is the defense doing?
12:49
Speaker 1: What are they presenting to me? And you've got to
12:51
Speaker 1: do all that. You know, it's under forty seconds that
12:53
Speaker 1: you have to be able to to process all that information. So, UM,
12:57
Speaker 1: I don't know if you can really put a timetable
12:59
Speaker 1: on exactly you know, when the game starts to slow
13:02
Speaker 1: down for these guys. I do believe that it has
13:04
Speaker 1: a little bit to do with, you know, what they've
13:06
Speaker 1: been exposed to before they got here. And um I
13:09
Speaker 1: I do, like I just said earlier, I do believe
13:11
Speaker 1: that the college game in the NFL game are getting
13:14
Speaker 1: further and further apart in in a lot of ways. Um.
13:17
Speaker 1: And there's then there's some things that are trickling up
13:19
Speaker 1: to us as well. Um, But you know it's gonna
13:23
Speaker 1: happen when it happens. For him, I do feel like
13:24
Speaker 1: I can see the game has slowed down a little bit,
13:27
Speaker 1: but there's still other things that he's still working on
13:29
Speaker 1: to get better at. Yeah, And and everybody's different and
13:31
Speaker 1: everybody's kind of got their own time horizon. One of
13:34
Speaker 1: the things that impressed me about him is how he's
13:36
Speaker 1: handled everything, and when I mean everything from off the
13:39
Speaker 1: field stuff to the drama to the play, etcetera. And
13:41
Speaker 1: how he's answered the questions and one thing just took
13:46
Speaker 1: really just stuck in my mind, Darrel and was the
13:49
Speaker 1: postgame press or at Tennessee, where it was a tough
13:52
Speaker 1: game obviously at four interceptions, but how he vividly recalls
13:56
Speaker 1: right after the game exactly what happens, but not just
13:59
Speaker 1: what happen, why it happened, and how it should have
14:02
Speaker 1: been differently. Um, sitting there listening to that, going there's
14:05
Speaker 1: a lot of guys that can't have that real kind
14:08
Speaker 1: of recall, but for him to have it immediately after
14:11
Speaker 1: the game, and it's an emotional game, to be able
14:13
Speaker 1: to have the calm and the cool and the collectiveness,
14:15
Speaker 1: to be able to reflect back on it and really
14:18
Speaker 1: to already be self correcting, for me, it was just impressive. Yeah,
14:21
Speaker 1: I mean he really has been impressive. Um, you know,
14:24
Speaker 1: across the board. I mean, just think of all the
14:26
Speaker 1: things that this young guy has had to go through
14:28
Speaker 1: for this season. I mean, there's been distractions, there's been craziness.
14:32
Speaker 1: Then you know, then there's you gotta worry about the
14:33
Speaker 1: you know, his play, um, and I think he's really
14:36
Speaker 1: handled it with great poise. And I think that's one
14:39
Speaker 1: of the things again that sticks out to me a
14:41
Speaker 1: lot is how poised he has been in all these situations.
14:44
Speaker 1: And as you said, Jeff, he's handled him really well.
14:46
Speaker 1: And then as far as his recall, he does have
14:49
Speaker 1: really good recall. He does learn quick. He doesn't make
14:52
Speaker 1: a lot of the same mistakes over and over. Once
14:54
Speaker 1: you correct it, then you know you can you can say, okay,
14:56
Speaker 1: we've corrected that, um, and you know that's that's some
15:00
Speaker 1: than that is impressive. And getting things corrected around him
15:03
Speaker 1: obviously is part of the challenge. Where are you at
15:06
Speaker 1: and and and how do you make things better around
15:09
Speaker 1: a young quarterback to give him the greatest chance at
15:12
Speaker 1: success at this point? Ye, as you know, I mean,
15:14
Speaker 1: the the guys around him are are really what's going
15:17
Speaker 1: to determine his success. His success you know, one guy
15:19
Speaker 1: in this game cannot do it by himself and so um,
15:22
Speaker 1: you know, to be able to put an offense to
15:24
Speaker 1: a great offense together, you have to have great offensive lineman.
15:26
Speaker 1: That's where it's going to start. Um. You want to
15:28
Speaker 1: be able to run the ball to take you know,
15:30
Speaker 1: some of the pressure off of the quarterback. And then
15:32
Speaker 1: you know, the whiteouts have to be able to do
15:34
Speaker 1: their jobs and whether it's blocking, whether it's catching, whether
15:37
Speaker 1: it's throwing. I mean, I know it sounds almost oversimplified,
15:41
Speaker 1: but that's where we're at right now. That's what we
15:43
Speaker 1: have to do. We have to do a better job
15:44
Speaker 1: of catching the football. Um, you know last week we
15:47
Speaker 1: you know, I think we have five drops. Um, gotta
15:49
Speaker 1: do that better. Got to protect him as well, and
15:51
Speaker 1: then he's got to throw it better at certain opportunities
15:54
Speaker 1: as well. Yeah, he missed a couple and then that's natural.
15:56
Speaker 1: But I gotta I gotta tell you about one player
15:58
Speaker 1: I loved was the thirty yard completion of James O'Shaughnessy.
16:02
Speaker 1: We've been seeing the little quick screen of Lavisco Shenault Jr.
16:05
Speaker 1: All year and I've been going, Okay, when are we
16:07
Speaker 1: going to see the compliment play? And you pulled it
16:10
Speaker 1: out and you hit oh Shawnessy and and then truth
16:12
Speaker 1: be told, he could have hit Lakwan treadwell as well. Yeah,
16:15
Speaker 1: I mean we we we felt like we had good
16:17
Speaker 1: bait on it right there with how many times we've
16:19
Speaker 1: thrown that to two live and um, so it worked
16:21
Speaker 1: out for us. We got really good coverage, but we
16:23
Speaker 1: did have two guys and it was good to see
16:25
Speaker 1: us getting explosive play. You know, that's something that we've
16:27
Speaker 1: really been searching for, is to you know, to get
16:29
Speaker 1: those bigger, bigger gains, and you see what happens when
16:33
Speaker 1: you get those in the drive. That's why they're so important.
16:35
Speaker 1: That's why we talk about them all the time because
16:37
Speaker 1: those are the drives that you end up scoring on.
16:39
Speaker 1: As you know, Jeff, in the league, it's hard to go,
16:41
Speaker 1: you know, twelve, fourteen, fifteen play drives and to be
16:44
Speaker 1: able to finish those with scores. If you're going four yards,
16:47
Speaker 1: four yards, four yards somewhere, you've gotta have an explosive play,
16:50
Speaker 1: and um, that helped us get one. All right, Gerald, standby.
16:53
Speaker 1: I will come back in just a moment and look
16:55
Speaker 1: ahead to the New York Jets and a familiar face
16:58
Speaker 1: on the opposite side line. It's the Jaguars Coaches Show
17:01
Speaker 1: on Jaguars Radio. Wow, welcome back. The Jaguars Coaches Show
17:17
Speaker 1: continues right now. The Jaguars Coaches Show rolls along JP Shaddrick,
17:22
Speaker 1: Jeff Logerman, and interim head coach Daryl Bevil. The Jaguars
17:25
Speaker 1: face the New York Jets in Week sixteen at MetLife
17:28
Speaker 1: Stadium East Rutherford, New Jersey. It's a one o'clock kickoff
17:31
Speaker 1: time on the of December. Some former Jaguars are up there,
17:36
Speaker 1: the handful of players that used to be here now
17:39
Speaker 1: wearing green for the Jets. A familiar face on the
17:42
Speaker 1: sideline to Robert Sala, former Jaguars linebackers coach, now the
17:46
Speaker 1: head coach. But Darryl, you and Robert go back to
17:49
Speaker 1: the early days in Seattle. He was a quality control
17:52
Speaker 1: coach on defense. Your first three years as the O
17:56
Speaker 1: C in Seattle. How much interaction did you have with
17:58
Speaker 1: him on that staff and what do you remember about
18:01
Speaker 1: Robert Salo? Yeah, well, I mean I wouldn't say a
18:03
Speaker 1: ton of interaction, right because we're not we weren't on
18:05
Speaker 1: the same side of the ball. But um uh, you know,
18:07
Speaker 1: as we talked about earlier, Pete does a great job
18:09
Speaker 1: of um you know, of all of us working together
18:11
Speaker 1: and crossing over to give you know, communication and information. Um.
18:16
Speaker 1: So we talked to Robert a lot, really really impressed
18:18
Speaker 1: with him, just really as a young coach, very smart,
18:22
Speaker 1: very energetic. I think you know that's another thing that
18:24
Speaker 1: you can see from him. Um and you you kind
18:26
Speaker 1: of felt of the presence that he had and you
18:29
Speaker 1: knew that some good things were gonna happen to him
18:31
Speaker 1: down the road. Yeah, a lot of familiarity on that staff.
18:33
Speaker 1: There are some guys on the defensive side of the
18:35
Speaker 1: ball that obviously worked with Robert when he was here
18:37
Speaker 1: in Jacksonville and Brent Barrier. Darrel Is was actually when
18:42
Speaker 1: he left Jacksonville. He was the Jaguars all time special
18:45
Speaker 1: teams leading tackler and uh, one of my all time
18:48
Speaker 1: favorite teammates. But a guy that I wanted to bring up.
18:51
Speaker 1: And I don't know if you crossed pass with him
18:53
Speaker 1: or not at the late Greg Knapp, who was an
18:55
Speaker 1: offensive coach for the New York Jets, did you ever
18:57
Speaker 1: have any experience with him at any point in your
19:00
Speaker 1: career in the NFL. Yeah, Unfortunately we never got an
19:03
Speaker 1: opportunity to to coach together, but um, we spent we
19:06
Speaker 1: did spend a lot of time. You know, I was
19:08
Speaker 1: I was a younger coach coming up in the ranks
19:10
Speaker 1: as a quarterback coach, and uh, he was the main
19:13
Speaker 1: guy at the combine and he's the guy that really
19:15
Speaker 1: ran the quarterback room at the combine and then helped
19:18
Speaker 1: put him through the drills. So um as I became
19:20
Speaker 1: you know, became an older coach in the in the
19:22
Speaker 1: in the uh the ranks. You know. Really, Greg and
19:25
Speaker 1: I were the two that kind of started to do
19:27
Speaker 1: a little bit more. He you know, uh, one year
19:29
Speaker 1: he wasn't there, so then I kind of took his
19:31
Speaker 1: place for that year, and then luckily he came back
19:34
Speaker 1: the next year and took it back over. Um. But yeah,
19:36
Speaker 1: it's just uh, um, you know, it was definitely a
19:39
Speaker 1: sad day when we got that information, and you know,
19:42
Speaker 1: particularly the way that it happened. UM. But it was
19:45
Speaker 1: a great coach. He was a great mind. Uh. He
19:48
Speaker 1: spent a lot of time around some really good quarterbacks
19:50
Speaker 1: and you know, so I think that speaks to him
19:52
Speaker 1: as well as what type of coach he was and
19:54
Speaker 1: and how good is um at the position that he was.
19:58
Speaker 1: May he rest in peace. He was obviously gonna be
20:01
Speaker 1: uh working very closely with Zack Wilson, and he had
20:04
Speaker 1: a uh bicycling accident that happened this year and and
20:08
Speaker 1: he didn't make it to season and it's very unfortunate.
20:10
Speaker 1: But enough of that. Zack Wilson, the quarterback for the
20:14
Speaker 1: New York Jets, was drafted right behind Trevor Lawrence. And
20:17
Speaker 1: obviously you guys did a ton of work on the quarterbacks.
20:20
Speaker 1: And I'm sure you looked a lot at Zack Wilson
20:22
Speaker 1: and now you've looked at him a lot as he's
20:24
Speaker 1: a pro in the New York Jets. What do you
20:26
Speaker 1: see when you watch the film on Zack Wilson. Yeah,
20:29
Speaker 1: you can see some of the stuff that you saw
20:30
Speaker 1: when he was at py U and um, you know
20:32
Speaker 1: he has the ability to move around in the pocket. Uh,
20:35
Speaker 1: he can get outside. He can make big plays down
20:38
Speaker 1: the field with with um some big time throws and uh,
20:41
Speaker 1: you know he can keep those he can keep those
20:43
Speaker 1: plays alive. I think that's the biggest thing that jumps
20:44
Speaker 1: out because those second chance opportunities are you know what's
20:48
Speaker 1: really big. Um. Sometimes you know, you you're you're just
20:51
Speaker 1: in rhythm. You know, you're throwing and catching. That's fine,
20:53
Speaker 1: But when you get those opportunities to escape and get
20:56
Speaker 1: out um on the outside, that's where a lot of
20:58
Speaker 1: big plays can happen. And I've seen him you that, Um,
21:00
Speaker 1: he has turned it over a little bit. Um, And
21:03
Speaker 1: you know that's any you know, any time you're working
21:04
Speaker 1: with some of these young guys that's you know, always
21:06
Speaker 1: has a chance to creep in. What kind of personality
21:09
Speaker 1: do you would you describe him when you did you
21:11
Speaker 1: talk to him much in the in the pre draft process. Yeah,
21:14
Speaker 1: there was you know, there was really the three big
21:16
Speaker 1: guys that we ended up doing a lot of work on,
21:18
Speaker 1: and he was one We spent a lot of time
21:19
Speaker 1: with him. He was he was very sharp, very sharp mentally.
21:22
Speaker 1: We did some you know, different things where it was
21:24
Speaker 1: we you know, one one call that we were on
21:26
Speaker 1: zoom call, we um had him only talk about the
21:29
Speaker 1: b y U stuff and we're showing film of him.
21:31
Speaker 1: Then we gave him some you know, some information that
21:33
Speaker 1: we wanted him to Uh. We gave him twenty four
21:35
Speaker 1: hours to learn and then uh, you know, twenty four
21:38
Speaker 1: hours later we we kind of quizzed him on that.
21:40
Speaker 1: So really sharp, uh, really good understanding, very confident young man. Uh,
21:45
Speaker 1: you know almost it has a really nice little swagger
21:47
Speaker 1: about him. Um and you know you kind of knew that, Okay,
21:50
Speaker 1: this is not gonna be too big for him. So
21:52
Speaker 1: you know, going to New York is probably a good
21:54
Speaker 1: place for him. From watching the film of the past
21:58
Speaker 1: game against Miami, they're not a aid to throw out
22:00
Speaker 1: a little razzle dazzle on offense. And I was getting
22:03
Speaker 1: my sheet ready and I'm seeing the name Michael la Fleur.
22:06
Speaker 1: Is that related to the head coach in Green Bay?
22:09
Speaker 1: Michae la Fleur is the offensive coordinator for the New
22:12
Speaker 1: York just sides that his brother, Yes, ah, yeah, So
22:15
Speaker 1: did you call Green Bay and say, hey, man, I
22:17
Speaker 1: need some tips to feat your brother? Yeah, I'm not
22:19
Speaker 1: sure that I would get I would get those tips,
22:20
Speaker 1: you know, I know I know him as well, but uh,
22:23
Speaker 1: I don't think he'd be giving it up to me.
22:26
Speaker 1: You know, going back kind of big picture here now,
22:29
Speaker 1: Darryl Beble with this interim head coach, all these COVID
22:32
Speaker 1: restrictions would come back up now over the last week
22:35
Speaker 1: or so, I don't know if you followed it around
22:37
Speaker 1: the league or not, all these games have had to
22:38
Speaker 1: move and there's these positive tests coming along and knock
22:42
Speaker 1: on would the Jaguars have not been impacted too much?
22:45
Speaker 1: And uh, in at least recent lead by the COVID
22:48
Speaker 1: nineteen stuff, how difficult has that been to navigate over
22:51
Speaker 1: the first weekend? Yeah, that was my first day. You know,
22:53
Speaker 1: we got those new protocols put in and UM, I
22:56
Speaker 1: mean that's that's always you know, part of the chaos
22:58
Speaker 1: that you have to to be able to manage. And uh,
23:00
Speaker 1: we were back in the in mass in the building.
23:02
Speaker 1: We're back to um, you know, the physical the social
23:05
Speaker 1: distancing or physical distancing in the building. UM. And then
23:08
Speaker 1: we were we were even making preparations to because we
23:12
Speaker 1: were not going to be able to be allowed to
23:13
Speaker 1: use the indoor anymore or inside our our offices anymore.
23:17
Speaker 1: So we were gonna basically set up make shift rooms
23:20
Speaker 1: out in the uh you know, on our indoor facility
23:22
Speaker 1: to be able to meet in person. Otherwise everything was
23:24
Speaker 1: gonna have to be on zoom. But UM, unfortunately, I
23:28
Speaker 1: think it just came down. So tomorrow we'll be back
23:31
Speaker 1: to basically our normal schedule. Uh. We won't have to
23:34
Speaker 1: wear the masks in the building. It's only if you're
23:35
Speaker 1: in the intensive protocols. And as you said, knock on wood,
23:39
Speaker 1: we don't have really anybody that's that has been in
23:41
Speaker 1: the situation where they've gotten COVID, and so that's gonna
23:44
Speaker 1: keep us not in that uh, in that category. Well,
23:47
Speaker 1: it's it's it's enough to manage an NFL team as
23:50
Speaker 1: it is, and then you add COVID on top of that.
23:52
Speaker 1: I mean, that's a tremendous amount to deal with. But uh, Darryl,
23:55
Speaker 1: about the New York Jets defense, Robert Sala obviously comes
23:58
Speaker 1: from a defensive background and from watching some of the
24:02
Speaker 1: film of the New York Jets. Defensively, they're struggling a
24:04
Speaker 1: little bit, but they got some really good football players
24:06
Speaker 1: and they also have some really young players in the
24:09
Speaker 1: secondary in the back end. Yeah, you know, that's something
24:12
Speaker 1: that we've been spending all day looking at. Is you know,
24:15
Speaker 1: is there is there defense? Um and uh yeah, it's
24:18
Speaker 1: it's it's one that's you know, we're playing professional defense, right,
24:21
Speaker 1: So whoever they have over there, those guys are gonna
24:23
Speaker 1: be good players. And you know, as you said, we
24:25
Speaker 1: have um old players that were on our team. Mosley
24:28
Speaker 1: is playing the you know, the mic linebacker for him. Um,
24:31
Speaker 1: really solid but young out in the secondary and it's
24:34
Speaker 1: gonna be a good challenge for us um in protection
24:37
Speaker 1: and in the past game. All right, Daryl, three weeks
24:40
Speaker 1: to go, but hey, one at a time, right, going
24:42
Speaker 1: up to New York. It's Christmas week, there's a lot
24:44
Speaker 1: going on and has a lot been going on around
24:47
Speaker 1: here the last couple of weeks. How do you get
24:49
Speaker 1: this team focused in and ready to go play this Sunday? Yeah,
24:52
Speaker 1: you know, again, as I said earlier, I just really
24:54
Speaker 1: trying to work on our mindset. You know. I think
24:56
Speaker 1: that's the most important thing that that we need right now.
24:58
Speaker 1: We need that believers, my said, we need to know
25:00
Speaker 1: that we still have things to play for. Um. You know,
25:03
Speaker 1: we know that the playoffs is not in it for
25:05
Speaker 1: us this year, but we have three games to three
25:07
Speaker 1: games to go. And I always talk to these guys
25:09
Speaker 1: about everything matters, and um, everything we do, you know,
25:12
Speaker 1: how we present ourselves walking down the hallway, people seeing
25:15
Speaker 1: us on the street, um. And then as we're playing
25:18
Speaker 1: this game, the way we're preparing during the week, and
25:20
Speaker 1: then when you put it putting you put it on tape.
25:22
Speaker 1: The tape is your resume. And whether your resume is
25:25
Speaker 1: for the people that you're sitting here that are watching it,
25:28
Speaker 1: or people across the league, there's always somebody watching, and
25:30
Speaker 1: everything that you do matters, and you want to put, um,
25:33
Speaker 1: the best resume on tape that you can. You know,
25:35
Speaker 1: we don't get to to fill it out and put
25:37
Speaker 1: it down. It's all right there on tape for everybody
25:39
Speaker 1: to see. And um, you know, that's kind of the
25:41
Speaker 1: mindset that I want these guys going into that. You know,
25:43
Speaker 1: the name on the front is important, but you're playing
25:45
Speaker 1: for the name on the back as well, and you
25:47
Speaker 1: want you want to present yourself in a great way.
25:50
Speaker 1: I think that's very important to pass that message on.
25:52
Speaker 1: And Darrel, this week, you guys are traveling on Christmas
25:55
Speaker 1: Day and the NFL doesn't know any holidays. Just wanted
25:58
Speaker 1: to say to you and your family Christmas and I
26:01
Speaker 1: hope you guys enjoy the week. Appreciated. Merry Christmas to
26:03
Speaker 1: you guys. Well, thanks for having me. Yeah, well done.
26:06
Speaker 1: Thanks for the time. Darrel back with more. It's the
26:08
Speaker 1: Jaguars Coaches Show on the Jaguars Radio Network. Welcome back.
26:18
Speaker 1: The Jaguars Coaches Show continues right now. Welcome back. It
26:22
Speaker 1: is the Jaguars Coaches Show, j P. Shadrick, Jeff Log
26:25
Speaker 1: human our thanks to interim head coach Darryl Bevil joining
26:28
Speaker 1: us in the first half hour tonight. I gotta tell
26:32
Speaker 1: you that's the sound of somebody who's been in the
26:35
Speaker 1: league for twenty one years. I mean, he's he's been
26:37
Speaker 1: around this game since two thousand when he joined the
26:40
Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers organization, is an assistant quarterbacks coach. It's
26:45
Speaker 1: not an ideal situation. He knows that it wasn't last
26:47
Speaker 1: year in Detroit either, but it's what's given him and
26:51
Speaker 1: he's gonna do the best he can down the final
26:52
Speaker 1: three weeks here. But and and and I got a
26:54
Speaker 1: lot of respect for the for the job that he's
26:56
Speaker 1: done so far. I mean, it's it's that's a lot,
26:59
Speaker 1: I mean to be able to, you know, towards the
27:02
Speaker 1: end of the season and a year that's been very difficult,
27:04
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you're asked to handle all the
27:06
Speaker 1: head coaching duties and and you know, you don't have
27:11
Speaker 1: time to put your complete fingerprints on everything, but you
27:16
Speaker 1: want to certainly try to do some things that are different.
27:20
Speaker 1: And I think Darrel's done a nice job so far
27:24
Speaker 1: of handling the media, handling the head coaching responsibilities. And
27:28
Speaker 1: from a player standpoint, I'm sure that they like to
27:31
Speaker 1: hear answers. They like to hear somebody in front of
27:35
Speaker 1: the room that is, uh, straight up, and and I'm
27:40
Speaker 1: sure that they are enjoying every minute of it and
27:44
Speaker 1: trying to be nice there jp to what's happened in
27:47
Speaker 1: the past. Right, Yeah, it's different. It's different, you know,
27:49
Speaker 1: but we weren't in in the meeting rooms. But I
27:52
Speaker 1: but I like what he's done as far as allowing
27:55
Speaker 1: Brian Schottenheimer to do the play calling responsibilities, because I mean,
28:00
Speaker 1: it's the right thing to do for two reasons. One,
28:04
Speaker 1: the offense has struggled, there's no questioning that, and so
28:09
Speaker 1: now it can allow Darryl to handle the head coaching
28:13
Speaker 1: responsibility and you know what, let and let somebody else
28:15
Speaker 1: try it. Yeah, right, I mean, I mean, maybe you
28:19
Speaker 1: find a little bitter continuity, maybe you find just a
28:22
Speaker 1: little better rhythm offensively with with Brian making the calls,
28:27
Speaker 1: and so so I'm all for it. I I I'm
28:31
Speaker 1: very I don't want to say surprised, but I'm I'm
28:33
Speaker 1: happy that he has decided to do that, because that's
28:36
Speaker 1: not what he did in Detroit. He did not give
28:38
Speaker 1: up the play calling responsibility. But when you have a
28:41
Speaker 1: guy like Brian Schottenheimer on staff, it makes you feel
28:46
Speaker 1: a little bit more comfortable doing that. But kudos to him.
28:49
Speaker 1: It could have kept kept the job and said, no,
28:51
Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep calm plays and that's my gig. That's cool.
28:55
Speaker 1: There's a lot of other things that go into it.
28:56
Speaker 1: Obviously during the week you mentioned it some of the
28:58
Speaker 1: media stuff, but in game, you know, just figuring out
29:01
Speaker 1: what's going on, defense, field, position, challenging everything. You have
29:05
Speaker 1: to have a bigger picture. Look a lot of times
29:07
Speaker 1: at the game. Yeah, when you when you use the
29:09
Speaker 1: time out, when you go forward on fourth down, you know,
29:13
Speaker 1: I mean there's a lot of different things, you know,
29:15
Speaker 1: handling uh, player substitution, you know, and that's right, which
29:21
Speaker 1: is handled by the head coach. Okay, no matter what
29:24
Speaker 1: else sometime uh And I'm sure that the some of
29:29
Speaker 1: the coaches on the coaching staff are appreciative of of
29:34
Speaker 1: Darryl Bevil and the difference that it is. Let's come
29:38
Speaker 1: back in a moment and get back to this Jaguars
29:41
Speaker 1: offense and see if they can jump start something. I hope.
29:45
Speaker 1: I hope they can JP because I hope so too,
29:47
Speaker 1: you know, I I kind of thought last week would
29:49
Speaker 1: be an opportunity to do that, but but and it
29:52
Speaker 1: didn't happen. But it's an opportunity this week, certainly, a
29:56
Speaker 1: young defense in New York is going to give you
29:58
Speaker 1: some chances. This is the Jaguars Coaches Show on Jaguars Radio. Wow.
30:17
Speaker 1: Welcome back. The Jaguars Coaches Show continues right now. Welcome
30:22
Speaker 1: back the Jaguars Coaches Show on the Jaguars Radio Network
30:26
Speaker 1: JP Shatrick with Jeff logerman Our. Thanks to interim head
30:28
Speaker 1: coach Daryl Bevel he joined us in the first half hour.
30:31
Speaker 1: Good conversation with Darryl, who has been at this for
30:33
Speaker 1: a long time in the NFL. A second opportunity as
30:35
Speaker 1: an interim head coach and as many seasons and three
30:39
Speaker 1: weeks to go for the Jaguars here in the campaign.
30:43
Speaker 1: Of course, this week they'll face the New York Jets
30:45
Speaker 1: at MetLife Stadium. It's not a great matchup in terms
30:49
Speaker 1: of winds and losses, but an opportunity for this Jags
30:52
Speaker 1: team to try to get something going, at least offensively,
30:55
Speaker 1: and they it felt like at least early in the game,
30:58
Speaker 1: we had a little something right there at ten play
31:00
Speaker 1: touchdown drive when they needed it. James Robinson got in
31:03
Speaker 1: the game and I guess what, he ran eighteen times
31:06
Speaker 1: for seventy five yards and a touchdown. And you know
31:11
Speaker 1: they had and Trevor Lawrence said this after the game,
31:14
Speaker 1: it felt better. We just gotta finish some things and
31:16
Speaker 1: catch the ball and I've got to hit some some
31:19
Speaker 1: guys that are open, he said that. And it just
31:21
Speaker 1: still it's fits and starts offensively to say it nicely, Well,
31:26
Speaker 1: you know, we had an opportunity there to tie it up.
31:28
Speaker 1: It was one possession game at right, that's right, and
31:32
Speaker 1: that was after you got the field goal. But I
31:35
Speaker 1: mean even that drive was a little bit disappointing because
31:37
Speaker 1: it was a three and out. So with it, uh,
31:40
Speaker 1: since the interception, essentially you had three offensive drives that
31:44
Speaker 1: were three and outs, and that's that's when you gotta
31:48
Speaker 1: come back. I mean, you gotta make a play. You
31:50
Speaker 1: gotta somebody has to do something that impacts the game
31:54
Speaker 1: to where you can get on the scoreboard. And it
31:56
Speaker 1: didn't happen, and that that's the part that's disappointing. At
31:59
Speaker 1: some you've got to be able to make some plays
32:01
Speaker 1: to you know, to make something happen on offense, and
32:05
Speaker 1: it's just not happening right now, and it's frustrating. And
32:09
Speaker 1: you know, and Daryl's right as far as when we
32:12
Speaker 1: talked about that one play that they got to James
32:15
Speaker 1: of Shaughnessy for thirty yards. And those are the kind
32:17
Speaker 1: of plays that leads you to scoring scoring possessions. And
32:20
Speaker 1: he's right, and you've got to get more of them,
32:23
Speaker 1: and the more that you can get, uh, the better
32:26
Speaker 1: off you're gonna be, the more chance you're gonna have
32:28
Speaker 1: a scoring points because those explosive plays are what makes
32:31
Speaker 1: drives go. You go back, and it's very rare that
32:34
Speaker 1: you find a drive that's just kind of a plotting
32:36
Speaker 1: drive where it's five and six yards, three yards and
32:39
Speaker 1: seven yards. Usually there's one or two or three big
32:43
Speaker 1: plays in a drive, you know, and we always can
32:44
Speaker 1: kind of consider explosive plays, and coaches have always considered
32:48
Speaker 1: explosive plays. And then there's kind of two levels. One
32:52
Speaker 1: is a ten plus yard run, but most people say
32:54
Speaker 1: it's a fifteen plus yard run, and then also a
32:57
Speaker 1: fifteen plus yard catch about kind of the the average.
33:01
Speaker 1: So typically a big play would be considered fifteen yard reception,
33:05
Speaker 1: fifteen yard or more reception, and then a ten yard
33:08
Speaker 1: or more rush. And how many did you get in
33:12
Speaker 1: that game? He didn't have enough, I mean every but
33:14
Speaker 1: when you get them. You can see the impact that
33:17
Speaker 1: it has, just like the James O'Shaughnessy play thirty yard bam.
33:22
Speaker 1: You you get down there and you have an opportunity.
33:24
Speaker 1: It's going points. And that's what you need more of.
33:27
Speaker 1: Gotta have more of that. Gotta have a little more
33:29
Speaker 1: offensive line consistency as well well, consistency everywhere. And that's uh,
33:34
Speaker 1: that's the disappointing thing. And the offensive line was supposed
33:37
Speaker 1: to be an area of strength, and then the commitment
33:41
Speaker 1: to the running game was supposed to be a an
33:43
Speaker 1: area of strength, which I don't know if the commitment
33:45
Speaker 1: has been what it needs to be. For whatever reason,
33:48
Speaker 1: it was better this pass game than it had been
33:51
Speaker 1: in previous games, and that's that's positive. And and like
33:55
Speaker 1: it would have been great to have your two backs
33:56
Speaker 1: and but you know, you can't just keep sitting there going, well,
33:59
Speaker 1: you know, we lost you know this guy and that
34:01
Speaker 1: guy and this guy and that guy. Because you know,
34:03
Speaker 1: every team can say that, and that's just part of
34:05
Speaker 1: the National Football League and you have to deal with injuries.
34:09
Speaker 1: And nowadays you gotta deal with injuries and COVID, Yeah,
34:12
Speaker 1: asked the Washington football team tonight. Yeah, I just looked
34:15
Speaker 1: at the roster. I think it's fourteen fourteen players, and
34:18
Speaker 1: I don't know if they're all active roster guys are
34:21
Speaker 1: practice squad out there. I think it's fourteen active, active
34:24
Speaker 1: roster guys that are on the COVID list and then
34:26
Speaker 1: not to mention like six assistant coaches. Yeah, yeah, I
34:30
Speaker 1: mean it's crazy, and uh, how many do you have
34:33
Speaker 1: on practice squad? Now? Sixteen? You know? So you? I
34:36
Speaker 1: mean you got I don't even know if you got
34:38
Speaker 1: enough of me, because if you get hit at one position,
34:41
Speaker 1: then you're you're real in real trouble. Then they're down
34:45
Speaker 1: to their third quarterback tonight, Garrett Gilbert starting for Washington
34:48
Speaker 1: and h yeah, yeah, it's uh, quarterbacks depositive. It's crazy,
34:53
Speaker 1: and it's amazing how some teams like this team knock
34:56
Speaker 1: on Wood don't have an issue. That's right. I think
35:00
Speaker 1: there are only actually right now, and then we're being
35:03
Speaker 1: very careful saying this. I think there are three teams
35:05
Speaker 1: that don't have anybody on the COVID nineteen list right now.
35:08
Speaker 1: Jags are one of them. Do you remember the other two?
35:10
Speaker 1: I do not. I don't either. It's let's just keep
35:13
Speaker 1: it that way keep yeah, please, let's come back in
35:17
Speaker 1: a moment. Defense and special teams. Special teams had some
35:20
Speaker 1: issues this past week. They sure did, and that was
35:23
Speaker 1: that's a problem. Oh it's not it's not good. I'll
35:25
Speaker 1: say that led to led to fourteen points. Not good.
35:29
Speaker 1: I'll say that. This is the Jaguars Coaches Show on
35:32
Speaker 1: the Jaguars Radio Network. Welcome back. The Jaguars Coaches Show
35:38
Speaker 1: continues right now. Welcome back. The Jaguars Coaches Show does
35:43
Speaker 1: continue right now. I'm J P. Shadrick, Jeff Lagavan, Joe
35:47
Speaker 1: Fortunato in the audio, Brent Reverer on the video. On
35:50
Speaker 1: Jaguars dot Com and jack social media. Daryl Bevil is
35:53
Speaker 1: the interim head coach. He joined us in the first
35:55
Speaker 1: half hour and this will be the format moving ahead
35:59
Speaker 1: the next couple of weeks as well. Is the Jaguar
36:01
Speaker 1: Space the Jets this week in Week sixteen, Jack's defense
36:05
Speaker 1: last week, gotta takeaway hasn't happened a lot this year.
36:08
Speaker 1: Tyson Campbell with an ih interception when the Jags needed it,
36:12
Speaker 1: and they got to score after that to get within
36:14
Speaker 1: and make it a one possession game, which was good.
36:18
Speaker 1: But right there, the the interception by by Tyson Campbell.
36:23
Speaker 1: First of all, it's a very good play, very good play,
36:26
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna do a little self promotion. Here's gonna
36:29
Speaker 1: be breaking it down. I love this part of the
36:33
Speaker 1: Coaches Show on the self promotion portion of the it's
36:37
Speaker 1: it's it's pretty it's a pretty cool situation. First of all,
36:40
Speaker 1: the it's it's always about numbers when you look in
36:43
Speaker 1: and break down defenses and and football statistics or everything nowadays,
36:48
Speaker 1: what are they called analytics. Analytics is a fancy term
36:52
Speaker 1: for it, but it's numbers, right, It's all numbers. And
36:55
Speaker 1: on that play, you gotta look at the first analytic number,
36:59
Speaker 1: which is nine, which is a third nine situation. Right,
37:02
Speaker 1: that's a that's a great down and distance to be
37:04
Speaker 1: able to do things defensively. It's a it's a favorable
37:07
Speaker 1: down and distance, and especially when you're facing a young quarterback.
37:11
Speaker 1: And we're gonna break this down on Jags Warre. But
37:13
Speaker 1: just to give you a little preview, the Jaguars had
37:16
Speaker 1: seven guys overloaded on one side and nine that we're
37:19
Speaker 1: showing to come. So if you're David S. Mills, you're thinking, oh,
37:25
Speaker 1: here comes an all out blitz cover zero and this thing.
37:28
Speaker 1: So he's thinking the outside wide receiver that Tyson Campbell
37:32
Speaker 1: was gonna follow him on an end route. But he
37:36
Speaker 1: just kind of backs off when the receiver drives up
37:39
Speaker 1: the field and that's all he kind of sees because
37:42
Speaker 1: here comes the pressure. Well then the tight end Aikin's
37:47
Speaker 1: is running an outrun. So Tyson just this. He's just
37:49
Speaker 1: sitting there, he's just waiting, and when when David s
37:53
Speaker 1: Mills throws the ball, he jumps right in front. Great play,
37:56
Speaker 1: But think about this, that's the second interception this year.
38:00
Speaker 1: How many collegiate interceptions did Tyson Campbell have? Do you
38:06
Speaker 1: know how many? Off the top of my head, No,
38:08
Speaker 1: I don't one. That was it. He had one interception
38:14
Speaker 1: at Georgia. And so we're talking about a young player
38:18
Speaker 1: that's getting better. Second interception. He's been playing exceptionally well
38:23
Speaker 1: of late. That's what you wanted to have all of
38:27
Speaker 1: your young players starting to show, and then you wanted
38:30
Speaker 1: to see your team start to have that kind of trajectory.
38:33
Speaker 1: And I liked hearing him after the game talk about
38:37
Speaker 1: his progression in coverage and seeing the ball and not
38:41
Speaker 1: letting receivers get away. From him and how that's grown
38:44
Speaker 1: as the season has gone along, and hearing him talk
38:46
Speaker 1: through that tells you that that's not just a he's
38:50
Speaker 1: not just falling into it. There's he's uh, you know,
38:54
Speaker 1: he's a good football player. He had a really really tough,
38:57
Speaker 1: tough little stretch there earlier, earlier in the season, and
39:01
Speaker 1: that's what it takes a special individual to be able
39:04
Speaker 1: to kind of bounce back or to fight through that,
39:07
Speaker 1: however you want to call it. And he's done that.
39:10
Speaker 1: And he's also been able to do that while battling
39:14
Speaker 1: some injuries because he hasn't been completely healthy, and so
39:17
Speaker 1: that for that reason, I give him a lot of credit.
39:19
Speaker 1: That was a heck of a play there, because you
39:22
Speaker 1: remember what I was saying about him after watching his
39:24
Speaker 1: collegiate film, and it, look, this guy is they can
39:27
Speaker 1: make a Marvel character or Marvel character out of him,
39:30
Speaker 1: whatever you want to call it, and say, call him
39:32
Speaker 1: the Shadow. But I said, he's got to work on
39:35
Speaker 1: his ball skill. So when the ball's in the air,
39:37
Speaker 1: that's when he has to improve. And Okay, now he's
39:40
Speaker 1: got two interceptions, all right. You know I starting to
39:43
Speaker 1: see a little improvement. That's good and I like to
39:45
Speaker 1: see that. And by the way, congratulations Malcolm Brown getting
39:49
Speaker 1: his first career sacked as a Jaguar. Yeah, first Jaguar sack. Yeah.
39:53
Speaker 1: And uh, really good job blocking on James Robinson's one
39:56
Speaker 1: yard touchdown run. That was a really solid job. And uh,
40:01
Speaker 1: by the way, remember the question I asked Daryl Beble
40:03
Speaker 1: about about the the compliment play to the quick screen
40:07
Speaker 1: that they've been running A bunch of gonna break it
40:10
Speaker 1: down Thursday night, JP double A double plug. You're gonna
40:14
Speaker 1: We're gonna break that one down for Jaguars All Access
40:18
Speaker 1: on Thursday night and we will be at Strings Brewery,
40:21
Speaker 1: but we will break that one down and uh and
40:24
Speaker 1: talk about how UH kind of surprised that that hasn't
40:27
Speaker 1: been used before or he hasn't or is not used
40:30
Speaker 1: more often because it's a natural play that goes along
40:34
Speaker 1: with that quick street. When we return some special teams thoughts,
40:38
Speaker 1: and there are plenty, we have a limited amount of
40:41
Speaker 1: time to get those in. I'll be quick and we
40:43
Speaker 1: will look ahead to the Jaguars and the Jets. This
40:46
Speaker 1: is the Jaguars Coaches Show on Jaguars Radio. Welcome back
41:02
Speaker 1: the Jaguars Coaches Show. Continues Right now, we're back final
41:06
Speaker 1: moments of the first Jaguars Coaches Show. This was the
41:11
Speaker 1: Irban Meyers Show. Darryl Bevil, interim head coach, joining us
41:15
Speaker 1: in the first half hour from here on out on
41:18
Speaker 1: Tuesday's at five o'clock on the Jaguars Radio Network. J P. Shadrick,
41:22
Speaker 1: Jeff Lagerman Special Teams. Last week, Yeah, it wasn't a
41:27
Speaker 1: great day at the office all around. Oh, you had
41:29
Speaker 1: a great opportunity to get off the field on the
41:31
Speaker 1: on the very first drive of the game, and uh
41:36
Speaker 1: you get to fourth down, you gotta stop three and
41:38
Speaker 1: it was I think it was a three yes, and
41:41
Speaker 1: uh yeah, you got hands to the face and all
41:45
Speaker 1: of a sudden that keeps the drive alive for the Texans.
41:48
Speaker 1: They take it down, score touchdown. And then you have
41:51
Speaker 1: the ninety kick return and there's one player that would
41:56
Speaker 1: like to have a redo on that kick return, probably
41:59
Speaker 1: a couple, but go ahead, Well, I mean there's a couple,
42:01
Speaker 1: but I mean the one guy he had he had
42:03
Speaker 1: his arms around the returner on the returner and they
42:05
Speaker 1: just I don't know, it was bad. It was Rudy Ford,
42:09
Speaker 1: who's supposed to be you know, they brought him in
42:12
Speaker 1: to be a special teams ace and obviously its transition
42:16
Speaker 1: into a prominent role as the starting nickel. But I
42:19
Speaker 1: mean his performance on that play was was bad. He
42:23
Speaker 1: should have made the tackle and uh but I mean
42:27
Speaker 1: it happened, and I mean he wasn't the only one.
42:28
Speaker 1: I mean, other guys could have could have been done
42:30
Speaker 1: a better job of staying in their lanes, etcetera. But yeah,
42:34
Speaker 1: that's anytimes, and the percentages of winning a football game
42:37
Speaker 1: when you give up a special team score are very small,
42:40
Speaker 1: no doubt. And Jadon Meckins had the punt return where
42:43
Speaker 1: he went back to in his own end zone at
42:45
Speaker 1: one point, came back florty something yards, but then there
42:48
Speaker 1: was a penalty running into the official the sideline to
42:50
Speaker 1: want Smooth apparently came off the sideline. There was interference call,
42:54
Speaker 1: they moved it back. It was just one of those days,
42:57
Speaker 1: and that that was by the rule book, that was
43:00
Speaker 1: the correct call. A lot of people are saying, oh,
43:02
Speaker 1: they shouldn't have called that. You know, smoot, the play
43:05
Speaker 1: was dead, you know, I mean, you can't. You can't
43:07
Speaker 1: run into official while he's trying to do his job
43:09
Speaker 1: to get down and mark the ball. The white stripe
43:12
Speaker 1: is an off limits area. That's that's where the officials operate,
43:16
Speaker 1: and you can't leave the bench area to celebrate and
43:19
Speaker 1: run into an official. And it's not like you don't
43:24
Speaker 1: want to get mad atam or anything like that for
43:26
Speaker 1: for committing the foul. But Smoot's got to be better
43:29
Speaker 1: than that. He's a smarter player than that. That's two
43:31
Speaker 1: weeks in a row that he's had a penalty that
43:34
Speaker 1: that has been a mental penalty, the one where he
43:37
Speaker 1: lined up all sides in in Tennessee. That's a mental
43:41
Speaker 1: air penalty. And then coming off of the bench running
43:43
Speaker 1: into official to negate a strong punt return in which
43:47
Speaker 1: ja Don Mickens should have never ailed the ball as
43:51
Speaker 1: bevil After the game and the postgame show, does he
43:54
Speaker 1: have a green light? He's like, yeah, no, we really
43:56
Speaker 1: don't teach that. We're not trying to do that there. Yeah,
43:59
Speaker 1: the old rule thumb is that you don't try to
44:01
Speaker 1: feel a pun inside the tent, and that one was
44:03
Speaker 1: inside the five and he had to go back and
44:06
Speaker 1: retreated to the end zone even alright, So moving ahead
44:08
Speaker 1: the Jaguars and the New York Jets Week six team,
