Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: JP Shadwick w withd you with our countdown to Kickoff
- 0:02Speaker 1: interviews ahead of the Jaguars Colts matchup in week seventeen.
- 0:06Speaker 1: Let's start with the Endie perspective. The voice of the Colts,
- 0:10Speaker 1: Matt Taylor, shares what forty four year old quarterback Philip
- 0:13Speaker 1: Rivers brings to the table.
- 0:14Speaker 2: Well, Philip Rivers still has his mind, and that's his
- 0:17Speaker 2: strongest muscle still to this point at age forty four.
- 0:21Speaker 2: I mean, honestly, I mean he's the walking embodiment or
- 0:24Speaker 2: the living embodiment in this case of just how much
- 0:27Speaker 2: you know, I think the game is ninety percent mental
- 0:29Speaker 2: and ten percent physical. I mean, I don't think there's
- 0:32Speaker 2: any other way you can explain how a forty four
- 0:35Speaker 2: year old quarterback who hasn't played in you know, prior
- 0:39Speaker 2: to the game a couple of weeks ago in Seattle
- 0:41Speaker 2: in eighteen hundred days comes in and almost leads that
- 0:45Speaker 2: team to a win on the road and that environment,
- 0:48Speaker 2: and then comes back, you know, six or seven days
- 0:51Speaker 2: later and is able to throw for two seventy seven
- 0:54Speaker 2: in front of the world, in front of the national
- 0:56Speaker 2: audience on Monday Night football. So I mean it's pretty
- 0:58Speaker 2: remarkable stuff. And you know, as it relates to the team,
- 1:02Speaker 2: it was unfortunate that Rivers played as well as he
- 1:05Speaker 2: did and as efficiently as he did and putting up
- 1:08Speaker 2: twenty seven points and the Colts still lost by twenty
- 1:11Speaker 2: one because the defense played that bad on Monday night football.
- 1:15Speaker 3: So you know, we can talk.
- 1:17Speaker 2: About how the Colts got here and you know, all
- 1:19Speaker 2: that stuff, just a quick history lesson. I mean, Daniel
- 1:22Speaker 2: Jones Terris is Achilles three weeks ago on that field
- 1:25Speaker 2: against Jacksonville, and then I mean, you're you're in a
- 1:28Speaker 2: tough spot. You lose your footing inside the AFC South.
- 1:31Speaker 2: Now you're looking up at the Jaguars inside the standings.
- 1:34Speaker 2: You know, the trade deadline is coming gone, it's early December.
- 1:38Speaker 2: Not a whole lot of viable options out there. That's
- 1:40Speaker 2: how the Colts landed on Philip Rivers because of his
- 1:43Speaker 2: you know, still his football IQ, his acumen, his experience
- 1:48Speaker 2: with Shane Steich and knowing the playbook inside and out,
- 1:51Speaker 2: and he also has a great familiarity with a lot
- 1:53Speaker 2: of the players that are still on this team, especially
- 1:55Speaker 2: on offense. I think there's whatever the number is like
- 1:58Speaker 2: fifteen total holdover teammates that are still here that were
- 2:02Speaker 2: with them in twenty twenty when he quarterback the Colts
- 2:05Speaker 2: to the playoffs. So he's been I think everything the
- 2:10Speaker 2: Colts wanted and more given the circumstances happened to bring
- 2:13Speaker 2: him off the street.
- 2:14Speaker 3: You know, two and a half weeks ago.
- 2:15Speaker 4: Bet Taylor willis voice of the Colts.
- 2:17Speaker 1: Last time out, the Jaguars defense did a pretty good
- 2:19Speaker 1: job against Taylor.
- 2:20Speaker 4: It's a different game. Quarterback was heard early. You know,
- 2:23Speaker 4: a lot of changes there.
- 2:24Speaker 1: But what's the biggest concern for the Colts facing this
- 2:29Speaker 1: Jaguars defense.
- 2:30Speaker 3: Well, I think you hit the nail right in the head.
- 2:32Speaker 2: It's you need to establish to some degree, you need
- 2:35Speaker 2: to find some sort of substance in the running game
- 2:38Speaker 2: with Johnston Taylor.
- 2:39Speaker 3: I mean Taylor.
- 2:41Speaker 2: He just hasn't been able to get going. In the
- 2:43Speaker 2: last six weeks. The Colts have lost five in a row.
- 2:47Speaker 2: He's been held under one hundred yards in all of
- 2:50Speaker 2: those games. You know, he had a decent rushing total
- 2:54Speaker 2: against Jacksonville three weeks ago. He was in the seventies,
- 2:57Speaker 2: which I read where that's Jonathan Taylor is still the
- 3:01Speaker 2: only running back to go over seventy yards rushing against Jacksonville,
- 3:05Speaker 2: which just.
- 3:05Speaker 3: Shows how good they are.
- 3:07Speaker 2: But you know, since I think everything, I think everything
- 3:10Speaker 2: kind of changed for the Colts, you know, right around
- 3:13Speaker 2: that Berlin game when they played Atlanta overseas and come
- 3:17Speaker 2: to find out, that was the game where Daniel Jones
- 3:20Speaker 2: sustained his injury with the fractured fibula, and ever since then,
- 3:24Speaker 2: you know, teams really were kind of coming closer to
- 3:26Speaker 2: the line of scrimmage, playing the box, making sure they
- 3:30Speaker 2: were taking Jonathan Taylor away first and foremost, and making
- 3:34Speaker 2: Daniel Jones beat him through the air and playing tight
- 3:37Speaker 2: coverage on the outside, just making it really difficult in
- 3:40Speaker 2: the Colts on offense. And so they got to find
- 3:44Speaker 2: him some somehow, some way get him going in the
- 3:47Speaker 2: running game. And that's the most impressive part for me,
- 3:50Speaker 2: is watching Jacksonville live and then also on tape in
- 3:53Speaker 2: the last couple of weeks. Is Yes, everybody knows they're
- 3:56Speaker 2: number one in the NFL and stopping the run right
- 3:58Speaker 2: around eighty seven yards per game, But to me, the
- 4:02Speaker 2: most impressive part about their defense is just how physical
- 4:05Speaker 2: they are. Right when they tackle you, you're down, Like
- 4:08Speaker 2: when they touch you you don't go any further. They
- 4:11Speaker 2: leave the NFL and fewest yards after contact allowed this season,
- 4:15Speaker 2: which is a big part of why that number is
- 4:17Speaker 2: so good at being able to stop the run. They're
- 4:19Speaker 2: really good in the back end too, because teams are
- 4:22Speaker 2: in third and long a lot because they're not running
- 4:24Speaker 2: the ball successfully on first and second down. So that's
- 4:27Speaker 2: been a disappointing revelation the last six or seven games.
- 4:31Speaker 2: It's just Jonathan Taylor is disappearing or getting further and
- 4:35Speaker 2: further away from the MVP candidate we saw him to
- 4:38Speaker 2: be in the first two months of the season.
- 4:40Speaker 1: Matt, what's left with this Colts defense? What are they
- 4:43Speaker 1: hanging their hat on right now? Buckner's done for the year,
- 4:46Speaker 1: that was announced on Friday. Jaguars did what they did
- 4:49Speaker 1: against him a few weeks ago. But what's some positive
- 4:51Speaker 1: things about this defense?
- 4:53Speaker 2: Well, personnel wise, some positivity there is you're getting Sauce
- 4:57Speaker 2: Gardner back for this game. He didn't play in the
- 4:59Speaker 2: first Backsonville game. He sustained a calf injury on the
- 5:03Speaker 2: first series the game after Thanksgiving that Sunday after Thanksgiving
- 5:07Speaker 2: against the Houston Texans, and we haven't seen him since,
- 5:10Speaker 2: and he's really been on the field off the field,
- 5:12Speaker 2: on the field off the field since the Colts made
- 5:14Speaker 2: that trade for him the trade deadline, given up two
- 5:17Speaker 2: first round picks.
- 5:18Speaker 3: So he's going to be a welcome site for sore eyes.
- 5:21Speaker 2: Because the Colts, I mean, you talk about their calling
- 5:24Speaker 2: card and what they're hanging their hat on right now.
- 5:26Speaker 3: Unfortunately, not too much.
- 5:28Speaker 2: There's no real better way to answer that other than
- 5:31Speaker 2: they're not doing too much well right now. You know,
- 5:34Speaker 2: they giving up you know, twenty eight or I should
- 5:36Speaker 2: say forty eight points against San Francisco the other day
- 5:40Speaker 2: and five passing touchdowns to brock Purty. I mean, the
- 5:43Speaker 2: biggest thing is they just haven't been able to quiet
- 5:45Speaker 2: down the big plays in the passing game. You know,
- 5:48Speaker 2: during this five game losing skid, not to nerd out
- 5:51Speaker 2: on you, JP, but they have given up thirty eight
- 5:55Speaker 2: pass completions over fifteen yards in that span. So you know,
- 6:00Speaker 2: the middle of the field is wide open. I think
- 6:03Speaker 2: because of personnel or lack thereof, right you haven't been
- 6:06Speaker 2: able to play with Tarvarius Ward and also Sauce Gardner
- 6:10Speaker 2: these last couple of games. You know, the Colts are
- 6:12Speaker 2: I think they've shown a lot of reluctance to play
- 6:14Speaker 2: an aggressive press man the man on the outside, So
- 6:18Speaker 2: a lot of zone coverage middle of the field's been
- 6:20Speaker 2: there for receivers and tight ends, and that's just giving
- 6:24Speaker 2: up too much of a high volume number for the
- 6:26Speaker 2: Colts in the passing game.
- 6:27Speaker 1: On defense lately, Brian Sexton with a pair of interviews
- 6:30Speaker 1: this week. First off, defensive backs coach Ron Milis, who's
- 6:33Speaker 1: been a dB coach in the NFL since the two
- 6:36Speaker 1: thousand season.
- 6:37Speaker 5: A little bit just because it's been what five years
- 6:40Speaker 5: since the last time he's put the pads on, But
- 6:42Speaker 5: when you really look at it, the relationship with Shane
- 6:47Speaker 5: and him and the situation in which they're in, it
- 6:51Speaker 5: kind of makes sense because he's got a stranglehold on
- 6:54Speaker 5: the offense. He knows that thing inside and out. No
- 6:57Speaker 5: matter if he had been a high school coach down
- 6:59Speaker 5: there in Alabama or coming back.
- 7:01Speaker 6: You can see he's got command of what's going on.
- 7:03Speaker 7: When you watch the tape, that's what you see, right,
- 7:06Speaker 7: not necessarily the same physical guy, but the same quarterback.
- 7:09Speaker 5: Absolutely you see him. He's the general on the field.
- 7:12Speaker 5: He probably knows what we're doing as well.
- 7:14Speaker 6: As we know what we're.
- 7:15Speaker 5: Doing, just because of the fact he's done it for
- 7:17Speaker 5: such a long period of time. And even when I
- 7:20Speaker 5: was with the Charger and he was with the Chargers,
- 7:22Speaker 5: he would know, hey, you're in the wrong spot, move
- 7:25Speaker 5: over something. He has an idea of what's going on
- 7:28Speaker 5: on both sides of the ball.
- 7:30Speaker 7: So even though they've lost a couple in a row,
- 7:32Speaker 7: they're still in this thing. This is an important game
- 7:35Speaker 7: for both teams, and that brings an edge to it,
- 7:38Speaker 7: doesn't it.
- 7:38Speaker 5: Absolutely. I mean, they still got something to play for. Obviously,
- 7:42Speaker 5: we have something to play for. We got a very
- 7:45Speaker 5: good football team. Obviously, I've got some history with that
- 7:48Speaker 5: organization coming from there, been there the last three years.
- 7:52Speaker 5: Love to go in and there and see if we
- 7:54Speaker 5: can get a win.
- 7:54Speaker 7: The league has really tried to increase drama at the
- 7:57Speaker 7: end of the year by putting all of these divisional games.
- 8:00Speaker 7: I think they've done an outstanding job. Kind of expect
- 8:02Speaker 7: that team and your team to both come out wound up.
- 8:05Speaker 5: Absolutely, and like you said that, the league has done
- 8:08Speaker 5: that over the years.
- 8:09Speaker 6: You just kind of go back over time.
- 8:12Speaker 5: I was with the Raiders one time and we were
- 8:14Speaker 5: in a similar situation where he either had to win
- 8:16Speaker 5: out and play teams such as the Colts or whoever
- 8:20Speaker 5: it might have been. And I think it's been good
- 8:23Speaker 5: for football, good for the National Football League. It's not
- 8:26Speaker 5: like they have an understanding that who's at the end
- 8:29Speaker 5: of the season, who has a chance to be good.
- 8:31Speaker 7: Tell me about your room, because it seems like you've
- 8:33Speaker 7: got a lot of guys who are playing different roles
- 8:36Speaker 7: and yet everyone seems to be completely unselfish. Is that
- 8:39Speaker 7: that room or is that that room plus this time
- 8:41Speaker 7: of year and where this team is.
- 8:43Speaker 6: I think it's a little bit of both.
- 8:44Speaker 5: I mean, I think our room understands we're going to
- 8:49Speaker 5: need them all and so we've been especially at the
- 8:52Speaker 5: corners and the safety position, where it's been like a
- 8:54Speaker 5: rotation when we started off with Greg and Buster, but
- 8:58Speaker 5: Jarian gets his play.
- 9:00Speaker 6: Same thing that's happened at the safety position.
- 9:02Speaker 5: So we're lucky enough that we have enough guys that
- 9:06Speaker 5: we feel very comfortable putting in again in a game
- 9:09Speaker 5: in a crunch time, and we kind of have an
- 9:11Speaker 5: idea what's gonna happen.
- 9:12Speaker 7: What did it mean to you to get Eric Murray
- 9:13Speaker 7: back on the field. It seems like there's a different
- 9:16Speaker 7: level of cohesion with that unit with him on the field.
- 9:19Speaker 8: Oh.
- 9:19Speaker 5: Absolutely. He's a guy that's been around the league for
- 9:21Speaker 5: a number of years. Obviously we missed him when when
- 9:24Speaker 5: he was out. He's like an extra coach on the
- 9:28Speaker 5: field or a quarterback on the field force. I think
- 9:32Speaker 5: with him, Dewey Ajose, those three guys have done a
- 9:36Speaker 5: wonderful job.
- 9:37Speaker 7: Antonio Johnson's kind of been my example of how this
- 9:39Speaker 7: team has grown because when Eric wasn't on the field,
- 9:41Speaker 7: he wasn't and making plays. Did you see this incrementally
- 9:45Speaker 7: or did it just turn on with him?
- 9:46Speaker 2: Oh?
- 9:46Speaker 5: He's been doing this. Really, he's been doing this since
- 9:50Speaker 5: since the summertime. I think he's come on. Obviously, he's
- 9:53Speaker 5: been able to catch the football, he's flashed in the
- 9:56Speaker 5: run game. I think AP has done a really good
- 10:00Speaker 5: job with those guys also, So at the end of
- 10:03Speaker 5: the day, AP's where it needs to be.
- 10:04Speaker 7: Give me a thirty thousand foot perspective. You've been around
- 10:07Speaker 7: this game a long time. This team has something going
- 10:09Speaker 7: from a chemistry perspective, it's tangible. I mean you can
- 10:12Speaker 7: see it here, you can almost taste it.
- 10:14Speaker 5: Oh yeah, Well, I think that comes from the top,
- 10:16Speaker 5: how Liam approaches us every day as coaches, as players,
- 10:22Speaker 5: and then what camp on the defensive side brings to
- 10:24Speaker 5: the table. Then you know, the emphasis on turnovers, those
- 10:27Speaker 5: type of things has helped us greatly.
- 10:30Speaker 7: Final thought, how much fun is it to play football
- 10:32Speaker 7: and coach football? You know, the week of Christmas with
- 10:36Speaker 7: a lot on the line and with a lot in
- 10:37Speaker 7: front of you, still, well, this.
- 10:39Speaker 6: Is what it's all about.
- 10:40Speaker 5: This is if you would have said back in the summer,
- 10:43Speaker 5: we're going to be in this position, we would all
- 10:44Speaker 5: say we'll take it. And we're in this position and
- 10:47Speaker 5: we are fortunate. But we have worked hard enough to
- 10:50Speaker 5: get ourselves in this position. So hopefully we'll keep on
- 10:53Speaker 5: going for at least another month and next.
- 10:56Speaker 1: Jaguars cornerback Jerry and Jones, who always has confidence.
- 11:00Speaker 9: I think a little bit of both. I think it's
- 11:02Speaker 9: just who I am. But I'm naturally like a super
- 11:03Speaker 9: confident god. I believe in me, I believe in us,
- 11:06Speaker 9: and I believe in everything we got going on.
- 11:07Speaker 7: Tell me about this locker room, because there's a tangible
- 11:10Speaker 7: level of confidence of chemistry. Wasn't here at the end
- 11:13Speaker 7: of last year, just being honest, tell me about when
- 11:16Speaker 7: it turned When did this locker room go from big
- 11:19Speaker 7: yeah two WHOA.
- 11:20Speaker 9: It's hard to like pinpoint a certain time that it
- 11:23Speaker 9: kind of turned over. I always seen the belief, like
- 11:26Speaker 9: in the players that we had in each other. But
- 11:28Speaker 9: I think having like a young head coach that also
- 11:30Speaker 9: has that same belief in himself and us, I think
- 11:33Speaker 9: it's just kind of murdered and you knowing that it's
- 11:35Speaker 9: like one big ball of confidence, you know what I'm saying.
- 11:37Speaker 9: So I think we play with that, and he does
- 11:39Speaker 9: a good job of emphasizing that as that we need
- 11:41Speaker 9: to play with. And I think he you know what
- 11:42Speaker 9: I'm saying, he's a great head coach, and I'm saying
- 11:44Speaker 9: it's easy to believe in what he believes in.
- 11:46Speaker 7: I think the secondary is a great example of this
- 11:48Speaker 7: team playing unselfish because you all are going in and
- 11:50Speaker 7: out of the lineup and it doesn't seem to matter
- 11:52Speaker 7: to anybody. Everybody's getting theirs. Can you just talk about
- 11:55Speaker 7: how you guys are as a.
- 11:56Speaker 9: Room, everybody's doing they want to live in. Making the
- 11:58Speaker 9: players that come to you out says the best when
- 12:01Speaker 9: he says, like the like the constant belief and everyone
- 12:04Speaker 9: doing their job like trust is the biggest thing. You
- 12:07Speaker 9: can measure a defense by just trusting each other to
- 12:09Speaker 9: be where it's supposed to be. I think that's what
- 12:11Speaker 9: we got a lot of it right now. No matter
- 12:12Speaker 9: who's in the line of who's in, you know what
- 12:14Speaker 9: I'm saying, who's out? I think you just see a
- 12:15Speaker 9: lot of trusts between each other.
- 12:17Speaker 7: There's a lot writing on every game the rest of
- 12:19Speaker 7: the way. Do you feel that pressure on game day
- 12:23Speaker 7: or can you just cut it loose and let it.
- 12:25Speaker 9: Rep because lose no person ain't no person being yourself.
- 12:28Speaker 9: I think the pressure comes when you try to do
- 12:30Speaker 9: something outside of what you always do. It ain't no
- 12:32Speaker 9: pressure being yourself. And I think we're prepared a right way.
- 12:34Speaker 9: So just doing everything that you're doing practice get you
- 12:37Speaker 9: in the right position for the game.
- 12:38Speaker 7: Colts, you just saw them a couple of weeks ago.
- 12:40Speaker 7: How does that help in your preparation knowing what they do?
- 12:44Speaker 7: And does Philip Rivers present a different challenge?
- 12:47Speaker 9: Quality team Hall of Fame quarterback that you gotta always
- 12:50Speaker 9: be on. You know what I'm saying, Your p's and
- 12:52Speaker 9: q's and you going against a team like that especially
- 12:54Speaker 9: with a quarterback like that. You know, send them a
- 12:56Speaker 9: couple of days ago. You know, you you you know
- 12:59Speaker 9: a little bit about you know who's seeing them already.
- 13:02Speaker 9: But you know you can't take no game lightly, no
- 13:05Speaker 9: team likely, especially a quality team like that. So you's
- 13:07Speaker 9: got to come to work.
- 13:09Speaker 7: You sat in the locker room in Denver famously, anyone anytime, anywhere,
- 13:14Speaker 7: this whole locker room share that.
- 13:15Speaker 4: Believe you know it. We ready to do it anyway.
- 13:18Speaker 7: How much fun is this right before Christmas and you're
- 13:20Speaker 7: playing for the division titled and everything in front of you.
- 13:24Speaker 7: It wasn't this fun last year? I mean, this is great.
- 13:27Speaker 7: This is why you play, isn't it.
- 13:29Speaker 6: It's so fun.
- 13:30Speaker 9: It's like, especially when it's time to nute up, when
- 13:32Speaker 9: somebody got a nute up, Those are the moments I
- 13:34Speaker 9: kind of like live for us. So now, yeah, this
- 13:36Speaker 9: is real fun right now.
- 13:37Speaker 1: Finally, this week prior to the Jaguars running back Fred Taylor,
- 13:41Speaker 1: the Jaguars are eleven and four and it's onto Indianapolis.
- 13:46Speaker 1: This is a fun time obviously to be around the
- 13:49Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars and be a fan of the Jags.
- 13:51Speaker 4: Fred.
- 13:52Speaker 8: Indeed, it is JP remember the group of the sixty
- 13:56Speaker 8: nine boys from Jacksonville, they made the tutsie row. We
- 14:01Speaker 8: have to remix that because we're on a roll. It's
- 14:03Speaker 8: not quite the Tutsie row, but we are on a roll.
- 14:06Speaker 8: It's the Jaguars role, and you know, it's it's good
- 14:10Speaker 8: to be a Jacksonville Jaguars fan.
- 14:13Speaker 10: And uh, I remember not too long ago, a few
- 14:16Speaker 10: days ago, I'm rooting for.
- 14:17Speaker 8: Other teams outside of Jacksonville, you know, for playoff positioning
- 14:21Speaker 8: and all that stuff. Uh. But I feel like I
- 14:24Speaker 8: just got to calm down, let things settle as they may.
- 14:27Speaker 8: As the chips fall, the team just has to continue
- 14:30Speaker 8: to go out there, stay the course and just handle
- 14:32Speaker 8: their business as they have been in and I think
- 14:35Speaker 8: that matters most than cheering for some stuff that's out
- 14:40Speaker 8: of our control.
- 14:42Speaker 1: Fred Liam Cohen is really getting a reaction from his
- 14:46Speaker 1: team week over week, and it's just kind of as
- 14:50Speaker 1: continued to grow obviously as the season has gone a
- 14:52Speaker 1: long first year coach. Everybody's buying into what he's saying.
- 14:56Speaker 1: The reactions after the game are pretty intensive and run
- 15:00Speaker 1: locker room, but it kind of tells you how close
- 15:03Speaker 1: this team is together.
- 15:04Speaker 4: They're buying into it.
- 15:05Speaker 1: Coach believes in them, they believe in him, and that's
- 15:10Speaker 1: carrying this team to great heights.
- 15:12Speaker 8: Yeah, it's about the fifty three you know player roster
- 15:15Speaker 8: that's in there, along with the coaching staff. You know,
- 15:19Speaker 8: it's along with the front office group, you know, along
- 15:22Speaker 8: with the assistants, the secretary, the training room staff, the
- 15:26Speaker 8: weight staff, you know, the people that feed and clean.
- 15:29Speaker 8: It's about the people in that building, and they don't
- 15:32Speaker 8: listen to the outside noise, which is what I absolutely
- 15:36Speaker 8: love the most. I want the fans to be on
- 15:38Speaker 8: the lookout for the podcast I did with Eric Armstead,
- 15:41Speaker 8: you know, just getting some insider information, not a whole lot,
- 15:45Speaker 8: but insider information from Eric, and he's just talking about
- 15:49Speaker 8: the close knit locker room and the fact that they're
- 15:52Speaker 8: all having fun, they're all bought in, they all believe
- 15:55Speaker 8: in each other, and they trust each other. And that's
- 15:58Speaker 8: what you need to be a successful team. You have
- 16:01Speaker 8: to have that accountability factor. You know, when you leave
- 16:04Speaker 8: the building, no one's got to get in trouble. No
- 16:07Speaker 8: one's going to deviate from the plan, especially at this
- 16:09Speaker 8: point in the season. Along with a sense of urgency
- 16:12Speaker 8: and trust. So he mentioned that they had. They have
- 16:16Speaker 8: all of that, and that's really been the focal point
- 16:20Speaker 8: since they got since the Houston Texans game. Sorry, so
- 16:25Speaker 8: they just got to continue it. Man, the season starts now,
- 16:30Speaker 8: and the season starts now. Man, every week the season resets, no.
- 16:35Speaker 4: Doubt about that.
- 16:36Speaker 1: Fred Taylor with us pride of the Jaguars running back,
- 16:39Speaker 1: and the quarterback's playing at an extremely high level right
- 16:43Speaker 1: now as well.
- 16:44Speaker 4: I mean the.
- 16:45Speaker 1: Last four games over one hundred rating, all these touchdowns,
- 16:49Speaker 1: no interceptions, I mean in key moments, situations, third downs,
- 16:54Speaker 1: red zone. Last week they were great.
- 16:56Speaker 4: He was great. So it seems like this sustainable for
- 17:01Speaker 4: Trevor Lawrence.
- 17:01Speaker 8: Moving ahead, Yeah, I love to see the consistency in
- 17:05Speaker 8: Trevor's play. His output has been intentional. It's it's purpose field, right.
- 17:12Speaker 8: This is the reason why we took him number one overall.
- 17:16Speaker 8: And there were some questions out there, I mean quite naturally.
- 17:20Speaker 8: There were moments where even myself said, Trevor has to
- 17:23Speaker 8: play better. You know, I don't know if he heard that,
- 17:26Speaker 8: but being trying to be unbiased and be a part
- 17:31Speaker 8: of the media and taking the player of mindset out
- 17:33Speaker 8: of it, Trevor, you know, myself, I would say Trevor
- 17:36Speaker 8: has to play better, but Trevor would also be honest
- 17:39Speaker 8: and say I need to play better. And I'm sure
- 17:41Speaker 8: there are interviews and moments he's even said that. But
- 17:45Speaker 8: this is the Trevor that we saw in college. This
- 17:47Speaker 8: is the Trevor that we've seen glimpses of minus the
- 17:50Speaker 8: four interceptions versus the Chargers a few years ago in
- 17:53Speaker 8: the playoffs. This is the Trevor that we've seen. A
- 17:56Speaker 8: guy who's playing with a sense of urgency, a lot
- 17:58Speaker 8: of passionate, a lot of heart, a lot of grit,
- 18:00Speaker 8: and the guy who's a leader so he stepped up.
- 18:03Speaker 10: The world is loving him, you know, more than anything.
- 18:05Speaker 10: He's loving him.
- 18:07Speaker 8: He's having fun and I love to see that sort
- 18:09Speaker 8: of energy in display of passion and attitude from my quarterback.
- 18:14Speaker 1: Fred Jaguars Colts. That means Jonathan Taylor on the ground week.
- 18:20Speaker 1: We've seen it already, but Jack's pretty much handled it
- 18:23Speaker 1: well last time around.
- 18:24Speaker 8: How do they do it again? Same way? A lot
- 18:27Speaker 8: of discipline, a lot of sense of vergency. But it
- 18:29Speaker 8: starts in the classroom with the fundamentals trusting and the
- 18:33Speaker 8: process trusting the play call that you get and then
- 18:37Speaker 8: effort a lot of effort the backup doing what they
- 18:41Speaker 8: do in the event that a starter isn't available. They
- 18:45Speaker 8: have to make sure that they're also ready to play
- 18:48Speaker 8: because throughout the course of the game JP and we've
- 18:50Speaker 8: seen injuries happen. But the jag Wars have done a
- 18:53Speaker 8: great job with plug and play mentality because those guys
- 18:56Speaker 8: are well coached, they're prepared, they're ready to go, and again,
- 19:00Speaker 8: execution preparation, sense of urgency, execution.
- 19:06Speaker 10: They should be able to shut down the Coat's run game.
- 19:10Speaker 8: And then get to beat up on a forty four
- 19:11Speaker 8: year old quarterback who shouldn't be out.
- 19:13Speaker 4: There throwing it like a shot put these days.
- 19:17Speaker 8: Hey, that just means a few interceptions should take place.
- 19:21Speaker 8: They'll continue to pad their turnover stats as long as
- 19:25Speaker 8: they'll get a few from filler.
- 19:27Speaker 4: Brad grey Seffer's always and we'll talk to you in
- 19:29Speaker 4: the postgame. Man.
- 19:30Speaker 10: Appreciate you. I appreciate you. Man.
- 19:32Speaker 1: The Jaguars isn't the Indianapolis Colts in Week seventeen.
- 19:36Speaker 4: Enjoy the game.
