• 0:38
  Speaker 1: thanks for having me in. All right, So you are
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: you like me? And that's for so many years that
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: the Washington Commanders were another team and that you still
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: have a hard time referring to them as the Washington
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: I do. I mean, I grew up with the other
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: team obviously that we can't name, but um, the Washington
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: football team now to the Washington Commander It is hard
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: because there's a lot of listen, there's a lot tradition
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: there in that in that city, with that, with that organization,
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: and that's just what I remember. Yeah, I mean I
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: grew up in Northern Virginia watching Dave Butts and Art
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: Monk and Darryl Green, and I mean all those guys
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: and and and I guarantee you at some point, yeah,
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: at some point, I'm gonna screw up, and I'm gonna
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: refer to them by their previous names. That's right, That's okay. Yeah, Hey,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: you're back in the grind now regular season mode. Did
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: you miss this part of being a head coach last year?
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: The game prep, the you know Wednesday Thursday practices, getting
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: your team ready for a game. You do miss it? Um,
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: you do miss the game planning. You do missing you know, putting,
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: putting your players and really scheming for your top guys
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: on offense and and obviously defense as well. But for me,
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: offensively putting our guys in position and getting in there
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: with the coaches and breaking down the tape and watching
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: the film and and putting a game plan together and
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: executing it on the field. And you know that, that
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: to me is what I missed the most about. You know,
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: weeks like this and partly this is different because you
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: have a new staff. I mean, you've got a first
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: time defensive coordinator. How excited are you to see the
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: dynamics of your coaching staff? Go to work very excited.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: You know. You spend a lot of time, um, putting
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: together a staff and and interviewing a lot of guys,
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: and and and then coming up with the guys you have,
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: and you know, and how how they've performed, you know,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: in in training camp and the things we've done even
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: you know, through the preseason games. But now you know,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: now things matter, you know, attention to detail becomes um,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: you know, adamant and paramountain and but but just being
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: able to, you know, watch these coaches, these young first
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: time coordinators really dive into the game, making adjustments, making um,
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: you know, decisions, game time, real time, all that stuff
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: that that you know, obviously I've been used to as
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: a play caller and a head coach, but just looking
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: forward to watching these guys kind of kind of cutting
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: them loose as well, just like the players. And I
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: think also first game action. There's a lot of different things.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: I mean, you guys have worked the comfort zone kind
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: of so to speak, in the preseason figure out where
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: your coaches are gonna be. But also in the first game,
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: there's a lot of things that are revealing. From a
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: player standpoint. You kind of have an idea of what
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: your players can do, but now you're gonna see for
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: real what they can and can't do. You know, I
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: think the biggest thing is is the conditioning aspect of it,
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: right because this is the first time that these starters
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: are gonna go for sixty minutes. You know, they um,
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: they're they're in the preseason. Defensively, I think they played
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: one half together offense went into the you know a half,
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: maybe a little bit in the third quarter. So playing
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: sixty minutes is gonna be very important to their to
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: their conditioning and watching these guys performed that way. So
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: you know, everything we do during the week matters. It
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: all leads up to game time obviously, coaches and players
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: and preparing them and um, you know, getting the most
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: out of them. On on Sunday, head coach Doug Peterson
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: with us on The Doug Peterson Show. First week surprises
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: can happen in the middle of a game, and you
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: talked about Jeff the coaching staff and the new adjustment
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: there but if the opponent pulls out something you haven't
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: really planned for, it's the in game adjustment. How do
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: you how do you factor that in week one? That's
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: something you just really can't plan for well. And and
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: and I think a lot of teams are, you know,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: week one just sort of I don't, you don't, you're
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: not guessing. But there's always gonna be the unscouted. Look,
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: you know, week one, that something that your opponent has
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: worked on through training camp, through the off season. Um
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: and if it hits us, then then we've just got
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: to go to work and roll up our sleeves make
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: the adjustments either you know, on the sideline or at halftime,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: you know, when we get time to get with our players.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: But you know those are gonna happen early in the season.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: Um and and and honestly I know this that that the
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: ones that can kind of handle it. And and really
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: you just focus on your job and just focus on
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: your your rule set right and your technique and just
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: rely on that in the scheme and and and for
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: the most part, that usually takes care of itself. You know,
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: in times like that, how much do you preach to
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: the team about preparing for dealing with that in a
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: game as far as hey, look, we might see some
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: things that we're not prepared for, but but we'll be
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: as prepared for him as we can. So let's just
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: not panic. We'll talk about it and the importance of
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: communication in the game itself. You want to come give
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: that message, do a good job, right, That's exactly what
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: we talk about though. I mean, that's that's just it
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: right there. You know, you just gotta have a conversation
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: with your players, like, look, guys, things are gonna come up,
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: Things are gonna happen. You might see a different formation
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: on offense that we haven't scouted. There might be a
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: pressure on defense that we haven't scouted, but we don't panic.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: Just trust your rules, you know, go through quarterback. If
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: you need to get us out of it, get us
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: out of it, get us into something. I'm okay punting
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: the football if that's the case on on you know,
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: on third down into fourth down. And in same way defensively,
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: if if if it means getting out of a man
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: coverage to his own coverage, um, just to to minimize
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: say the damage, you do that, right, And that's just
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: trusting your scheme and trusting your technique in those situations.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: Let's get into Trevor Lawrence, now Jaguars quarterback, from when
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: you arrived here and first got your hands on him
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: on the practice field in April, two now days away
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: from the opener. How has he grown and how has
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: he how is his mastery of the offense improved over
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: those months. I've been really impressed on how he's attacked
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: the offseason at the training camp and obviously early early
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: part of this season. And and you know, he's really
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: embraced what we've brought him. You gotta understand, he's, you know,
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: third head coach, third offensive coordinator, third position coach in
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: three years, and and that's tough on any player and
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: any team. And he's really handled it extremely well. And
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: and you know, I think that's one of the things
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: I appreciate about Press Taylor and Mike Mike McCoy myself.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: I mean, we actually want his feedback. We want him
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: to interject what he likes and and and what he's
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: comfortable with so that we can build a plan around that.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: And and um, you know, he's he's done an outstanding
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: job running and managing the offense, um protecting the football
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: you know, and those are all things that, uh early
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: in the season, early into the regular season, have got
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: to be you know, first and foremost is just protection
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: of the ball, um and and getting us in and
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: out of the right place at the right time. Turnover differential. Obviously,
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: he's always icole in every game. It's a single most
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: determined factor in every game. But and obviously you want
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: him to protect the ball. The one thing that I
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: love watching from a film standpoint so far in the
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: preseason is that the guys that he's dealing with from
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: Christian Kirk's A Jones, Marvin Jones, Evan Ingram, Dan Arnold,
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: James Robson, the cast of of weapons that he has
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: around him, total pros, total pros. And when you have
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: a young quarterback to be able to have some guys
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: that are all about ball around him, that has to
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: be comforting for you and him well and and for Trevor.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: You know, a young quarterback, he doesn't feel like he's
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: got to do everything himself, right. He's got guys that
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: are as you mentioned, and I've seen the same thing.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: They're true professionals. They work at their craft. There's a
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: lot of dialogue on and off the football field about things,
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: and you know that just that just kind of calms
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: your quarterback down. Um, whether it be in practice, but
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: obviously in games when when uh, you know, they they've
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: discussed things and they're on the same page. And I
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: I think it's so important and it really helps the
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: development of your young quarterback, you know, in times like that.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: And then of course as play callers we can we
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: can also help there. But but these guys are are
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: tremendous pros um throwing a guy like Brandon Shuff I
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: mean up front, you know, Cam Robinson's coming into his
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: own now, um, and and it just really helps calm
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: your guy down. Speaking of developing a young quarterback, when
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: you did that with Carson Wentz, who's on the other
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: side of course this week with Washington, how different of
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: a player is he now compared to those early days
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: in Philadelphia now his third stop in the NFL. Well,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: I think he's he's learning from each each place he's been, right,
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: He's learning from his time in Philly and time and
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: Indie and and you know, one of the things that
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: I've always appreciated about Carson his leadership ability and how
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: he how he leads the group in the locker room.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: And you know, and he's he's a hard worker. He's
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: gonna be the first one on the field, he's gonna
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: be the last one off. He's always trying to get better,
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: you know, which which I appreciate. And you know, as
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: a player, and he's a smart guy. He's gonna look
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: at every thing that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have done,
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: the Colts have done, obviously what we did in Philly,
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: and you know, and and and look at all of that,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: and he's gonna be He's gonna be well prepared. That's
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: just that's just who he is. And and you know,
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: you see you see the improvement in in his game.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: Obviously he's a big, strong, physical guy that's hard to
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: sack and hard to bring down. And those are all,
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: you know, uh attributes in his game that that make
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: him a good quarterback. And so we we've got our
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: work cut out for us on Sunday, first game for
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: for a lot of guys on your football team, whether
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: it be with a new team, veteran guy making or
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: start like a sheriff. But then also you know a
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: tray Von Walker, Devin Lloyd. I just remember some of
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: the early experiences of my career and walking out of
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: the tunnel and seeing Lawrence Taylor leaning up gainst the wall,
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god, that's you know, and uh,
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: how do you kind of calm it down a little
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: bit for for some young players on your roster, you know,
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: you just you just talked to him and say, hey, listen, guys,
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: the field is the aim to mention that you played
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: on in college, you know, And and it's the same.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: The hash marks might be a little tighter, and that's
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: about it, but you know, it's still a bunch of
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: white lines, and and uh, it's a leving on offense,
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: leving on defense. So you know, we just talk, just
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: talk them through it. And they're gonna they're gonna they're
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: gonna be emotional, you know, it's the emotions are gonna
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: run high. But at the same time, to how how
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: we control those emotions early, um, and don't get too
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: overly aggressive at times and just again just play within yourself.
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: And and you gotta you gotta think too. Some of
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: these guys they've played in big moments, they've played in
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: big games in college, so this this may not be
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: quite as big as we think. To some of them. Doug,
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: thanks for the time, good luck to you this week,
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: and let's get a win in Washington, sir. Thanks for
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: having me, guys, said coach Doug Peterson. Back with more
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: in a moment. It's the Doug Peterson Show on the
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: Jaguars Radio Network. Welcome back The Doug Peterson Show, present
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: by the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: P Shadrick, Jeff Lockman Er thanks to head coach Doug
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: Peterson joining us in week one. The Commanders and the
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: Jaguar is coming up. Some interesting thoughts there. You know,
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: the first time out, you're gonna see a lot of
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: different things. You just trust what you've been teaching this
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: whole preseason and uh roll, as Steve Winwood would say,
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: just roll with it, baby. Yeah. The the term unscouted
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: looks again pops up and we heard that as press
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: conference recently, and then he talked about it again and
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: that's kind of how it is in week one, and
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: I thought he said something interesting, as you know, you
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: teach them the rules and then that there are some
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: things that they are not prepared for that they haven't
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: seen directly. Then they follow the rules and what the
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: rules are, We'll get you through. And that's uh I
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: think that's awesome that he emphasizes that because that can
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: calm people down. You know, sometimes you have a little
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: bit of nerves because you may see some things that
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: you're not used to see. A lot of some guys
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: are they freak out when they see something different. You know,
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: the creatures have have it. You know, they got to
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: see it, you know, to to understand it and to
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: be able to react. And some guys can handle an
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: unscouted look better than another. And uh so, so that's
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: good that he's talked about. It's good that he recognized it,
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: and he's good that he's preaching his football team because
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: I think that's important, especially for a week one the
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: matchup this week against Carson Wentz. I mean, obviously they
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: go back a long way, and it was interesting to
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: hear his take on Carson Wentz and what he can
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: do when things are going well and when things aren't
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: going so well well and and and dougs a pro.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: He's not gonna criticize Carson Wentz, but I think everybody
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: knows that that relationship didn't end well in Philadelphia. But
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: it is what it is, and um, you know, I
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: guess that the direction that they felt they needed to
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: go is a little bit different, and I totally understand that.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: But but I appreciate how both of them have have
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: reacted and how they've handled that since then. They've both
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: been I think, but when I say both Carson and
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: Doug both have been excellent about that and been total
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: professionals about that situation. But I can guarantee you behind
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: closed doors, Doug Peterson is well reveal some maybe not
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: so complimentary things to his defensive coordinator, saying, hey, Mike,
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: you know here, here's what I think he doesn't do
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: very well. Here's what doesn't sit well with him, and
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: here's the pressures that we've seen bother him more than
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: others through the years. I mean, and a lot of
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: that stuff is on film, and that's available to a
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: lot of different people, but not with the first hand
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: experience that Doug has had directly with Carson Wentz. Wentz alright,
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: defensive coordinator, Jeff Logoman, how do you how do you
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: affect Carson Wentz? Well, I said this before and that
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: I'm a big believer in making sure that a mobile
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: quarterback stays without the mobile factor. And how do you
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: do that? You make sure that you corral him in
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: the pocket, keep him in the pocket. Carson Wentz can
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: do more damage to you outside the pocket, I think
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: than he can do in the pocket. So you've got
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: to make sure that you're you're teaching and preaching what
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: I call rush lane responsibility and that even if you're
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: blitzing or or if you're just bringing a four man pressure,
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: that everybody needs to be in their lane and a
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: lot of times that can restrict people how as far
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: as how aggressive they are and rushing the passer. What
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: do I mean by that, Well, you don't want people
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: just bull rushing and then you know, squeezing the pocket
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: and not trying to beat a guy on an edge
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: or nothing. I mean, you have to take your your shots,
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: but you also have to make sure that you're taking
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: a shot within within the design of your pass Russian lane,
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: and so you can accomplish both. But you want to
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: keep in a pocket. You want to minimize any kind
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: of any kind of damage that he is able to
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: do outside the pocket. When if he can extend the
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: play and get outside the pocket, then you stress coverage.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: I think it was interesting and he talked about well
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: with unscouted looks, and I think this supplies also for
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: a mobile quarterback. Sometimes you may dial it back. I
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: think he used the term and that play a zone
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: instead of a man to minimize the damage. I think
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: was his quote. It's a similar type of situation and
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: that if you're playing man, your back is turned to
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: the quarterback. So it's kind of hard to react if
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: Carson Wentz decides to tuck it and run it when
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: you've got your back turn and you're covering a guy
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: going down the field or wherever. If you're playing more
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: of his own concept, it's a little bit easier to
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: react to his mobility. And the zone coverage is also
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: a little more of an insurance policy to prevent big
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: a So could this team be a little bit more
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: zone in this game? Maybe you know, but again we
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: don't know the book. All my called well, that's right,
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: that's another part of this game too. This is a
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: receiving crew with Washington. The three starters are all Big
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: ten guys to Ohio State players mclauren and Chris Samuel,
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: and then John Dotson was the first round pick out
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: of Penn State this year, but mclauren just signed a
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: big deal in the offseason, three year extension seventy one
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: million dollars up to that number. Um, you know, and
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: and Mike called Well said today in his comments with
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: the media, the Jaguars defensive coordinator that as of right now,
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: they're not planning on shadowing anybody with him. It would
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: be a left and right situation. But I would tell
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: the media that too if I was planning on shadow right, why,
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: I mean, why would you give away your game plan
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: in a press conference? Um? So, don't believe everything you here?
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: So could they sure they could put Tyson Campbell on mclauren,
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: Could they put Shaq Griffin on mclauren. Sure? You know,
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: there's there's nothing just you know, by him saying we're
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: not going to travel. I mean, if you're the coaches
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: up in Washington, are you're going, hey, man, do you
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: hear that they're not traveling? Okay? That's good, you know, Okay,
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: since they're not traveling, we're gonna do this. No, You're
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: you're gonna sit there and go I don't believe what
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: he's telling the media. Let's just wait and see what
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: he does, because he may right, I mean did Tampa
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: travel at times? So you never know. Let's come back
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: in a moment. A little offensive talk running backs in
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: the spotlight this week, and and just real quick for clarification.
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: There might be some people that are curious, what does
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: he mean by traveling. Traveling is at a defensive back
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: like Tyson Campbell for example, you want to put Tyson
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: Campbell on mclaura. No matter where Lauren goes, you're gonna
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: take Tyson Campbell and he's gonna go to that side.
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: Or like Jalen Ramsay when he was here, you put
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: Jalen on your best on the best guy that the
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: opposition had. That's called traveling. And uh, could the Jaguars
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: do that this week? We don't know. We're gonna have
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: to wait and see offensive talk running backs and a
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: big matchup for the Jaguars offensive line this week. It's
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: the Doug Peterson Show on Jaguars Radio. Welcome back. The
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: Doug Peterson Show continues right now. Welcome back the Doug
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: Peterson Show, rolling along j P. Shadrick with Jeff Lockerman.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: We heard from head coach Doug Peterson earlier in our program. Tonight,
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: the Jaguars faced the Washington Commanders Sunday at FedEx Field
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: and it is the return of to Jaguars running backs
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: Travis E. T n Jr. Should make his NFL regular
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: season debut in season number two for him in the league.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: He was injured last preseason, had liszt frank issue of
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: a midfoot um injury and missed the entire season. He
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: should be back and ready to go. He feels like
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: he's in great shape. It sounds like he's in a
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: good headspace also and ready to roll. He's had a
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: great preseason. And then James Robinson after tearing an achilles
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: with two games to go and last season, well he's back,
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: he's good to go, and he's going to play Sunday.
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: It's a pretty remarkable turnaround after what eight and eight
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: and a half months since the injury and achilles injury
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: to be back on the field playing week one. And
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: it was interesting listen to him talk about how the
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: last couple of weeks have really made all the difference
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: in the world, and that he wasn't quite sure, but
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: he said, you know, you you put a day together
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: and then see out feels the next day, and then
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: it felt okay. So then Okay, now you you take
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: another step and push a little bit more. Credit to him.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: I really do hope that he gets the start on Sunday,
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: just because of all the hard work. Look both of them,
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: both Travis ETI N and James Robinson have put in
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: a tremendous amount of hard work in their rehab process
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: and so have the the athletic trainers, and kudos to them.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: I talked about them I think last week a little
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: bit and uh, and I wanted to mention them on
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: the show. Robbie, who is there rehab specialist, does a
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: great job and I've actually had Robbie actually helped rehab
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: one of my shoulders one time and was tremendous. And
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: James Robinson to come back from Achilles and for him
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: to be back, you know, because he got the injury
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: two weeks before the end of the season last year
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: and to be back ready to go in week one, Wow,
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: tremendous deal. And then Travis E. T N from the
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: get go and training camp has had no limitations after
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: a Liz Frank which as Frank is an extremely painful
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: midfoot sprain, it's no joe. He said he has a
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: screw in his foot. I mean it's not like he
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: just had a little fracture. I mean that's a big deal. Yeah,
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: So I really do hope that James Robinson gets to start,
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: just from the standpoint of Look, he's been a the
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: one really bright spot with this offense the last couple
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: of years, and then last year, the level of disrespect
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: that was shown to him, I thought was just appalling.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: And you forget a little bit of that. Yeah, that's right.
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: He was not at the top of their list. Let's
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: say it was ridiculous. And remember Trevor had to come
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: to his you know, in the press conference basically and say, hey,
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: we canna have him out of here. It was it
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: was I couldn't. I just couldn't understand any of that.
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: But for me, I think it would be a a
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: gracious and significant act if if he were to to
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: get the first that I mean, to get the start.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: And I know Doug talked about this press conference, but
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: I we'll see what package and what we're gonna do.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: You know, if I if I'm making that call, day
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: is gonna be out there on the first snap. I
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: don't care what package we're doing. Okay, he's uh, he's
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: gonna be our our bell cow. He's gonna guy that's
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: gonna be carrying the load. And uh, you know, kudos
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: for you for your hard work and a significant injury.
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: And I'm not trying to compare the two, but the
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: reality is coming back from an achilles is a I
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: think it's a lot harder than coming back from uh,
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: Lizz Frank, not that either one of them are easy
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: say anything down there, especially with a running back. It
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: starts with the feature. It's major, it's major. So anyway,
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: those those guys, and I'm looking forward to seeing how
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: they how they put both of them on the field.
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: You know, do they do it one at a time?
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: Is it gonna be a package where they're both out?
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: I like that I had the personnel groupings with the offense.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: You know, are we gonna see both of them on
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: the field and a couple of tight ends? I mean,
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: you just don't know. That's the unscouted looks. There's gonna
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: be a lot of unscoutered looks and that the Jaguars
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: will have this week. Would be my guest. They'll have
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: some and they will keep some of them in their
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: pocket for the next couple of weeks. You don't want
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: to throw them all out there a week. You want
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: to have a little bit of surprises in store and
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: up coming weeks. Let's come back and get into the
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: offensive line. Some changes there this season for the Jags
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: and quite a matchup in Week one against Washington. This
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: is the Doug Peterson Show on the Jaguars Radio Network.
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: Welcome back. The Doug Peterson Show continues right now. Welcome
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: back j P. Shadrick with Jeff Flagging, Joe Fortunado, David Choe,
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: Brett Reaber, Kate Washki handles our ads. William Pas handles
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: our podcasts. Glad you're with us on the Jaguars Radio Network.
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: It's Week one. The Jaguars face the Washington Commanders at
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: FedEx Field. You know, when you think about the Washington
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: franchise over the years, he walked through the Hall of Fame.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: There's a bunch of those guys in there. Yes, um
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: in Canton, Ohio. And there's also one of the Hogetts
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: outfits that's in one of the lockers. I remember seeing that.
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: But you think offensive line, right Washington, and that's what
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: they are. Well for the Jaguars offensive line, they're going
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: into Washington this week against a defensive front um that
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: even without Chase Young, fantastic young player in the League
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: of pass rusher, they still have some guys up front
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: in Washington and consume that that can do some damage.
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: And it's a Jaguars offensive line that has some new pieces,
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: a new rookie center they've got after a battle at
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: right tackle. It's the incumbent Jawan Taylor is gonna start there.
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: Left guard is new. I mean, there's a lot of
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: This is a big test week one. But by the way,
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: can you name me the five members of the hall.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: I don't think I can either Bostick and Grim. Okay,
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: Bostick was the center of Grimm and which uh Russ
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: Grimm's son is actually the safety's coach on the staff.
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: Now Joe Jacoby was the left tackle. Um have to
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: figure out the other two. But Joe is gonna pull
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: up the names of the other two because their names
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: are escaping me right now. But anyway, this is a
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: this is a big matchup in this ballgame, and I
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: think it's gonna have a lot to do with whether
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: this team has success or not offensively. And that's the
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: offensive line versus the first round picks. That the Redskins.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: There we go again. Commanders have upfront. It happens, and
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: they're really good players. Jonathan Allen I think is the
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: best of the bunch. Montest Sweat also is right there
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: with him as far as how good he is. They're
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: missing Chase Young, but they're still really good. Look Dron
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: Payne and Jonathan Allen, the two defensive tackles are about
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: as strong of a combo as you're gonna find in
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: the National Football League. And I'm talking stout, stout good
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: football players. And you have a rookie center playing in
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: his first game ever, you have a new left guard.
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: That's gonna be a challenge. Sheriff. I don't worry about
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: the right guard. I mean, he's five time pro bowler,
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: he's been around the block. He's going against his old teammates.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: He knows those guys, they know him, and that's gonna
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: be a great matchup for him. The matchups that I
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: worry about, I think Montest what's gonna be a challenge
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: for John Taylor. I really do. Montest Sweat is a
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: really good football player. Jonathan Allen, when he goes to
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: sub nickel situations, is a right defensive tackle, which he
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: will match up against Ben Bart's. He's over there about
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: nine of his pass rushes. Okay, So dron Payne is
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: gonna be on the other guy, which is Sheriff. And
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: if you're the coaches on the Washington staff, that's the
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: matchup you want. You want Jonathan Allen against Ben Bart.
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: You don't want to put Jonathan Allen against Sheriff, a
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: five time pro bowler, right, you don't want to do that.
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: So this is a big game for Barts. This is
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: a big game for Fortner because he's a young player
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: facing really good players and a defense that's gonna be
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: able to get after it. And this could, like I
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: said before, this could be a determining factor of whether
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: or not this team wins or loses. How that matchup
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: goes up front. Now for the answer the other two Hogs?
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: Did you find the answer of there Joe? Two guys
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: that don't remember George Stark and George Stark was awesome
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: and Mark May was a very good football player too.
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: The five of those guys were really really good, really good.
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: But the collection of them, you know, their offensive line,
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: you're always trying to be And this is I think
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: with the Jaguars have been trying to accomplish and and
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: Phil Rousher, the Jaguars new offensive line coach this year.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: I like what the job that he's doing. I'm seeing
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: progress on some players that I haven't seen progress in
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: quite some time. Because offensive line play is about and
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: SELLI will back me up on this. It's about some
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: of the parts as being greater with a you know,
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: as far as the individually guys. You know, so in
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: other words, if you took every individual player and added
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: up a score, put a score on each guy. Let's
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: say each guy was only a five. Okay, so their
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: total score would be a twenty five. That's five times
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: five jp S math. You know, you didn't take that
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: class at Alabama, but you would like to have a
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: group of five that maybe they grade out as five individually,
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: but when they play as a group, they grade out
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: as in the thirties. So they play better as a
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: group than they do as individuals. And that's what you're
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: looking for with offensive line play. Continuity and guys that
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: played well together and that they play better as a
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: group than they do as individuals. And that's what you're
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: looking for. And so big challenge this week though, right
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: out of the gate. I don't think it gets any
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: any stiff, especially not on the inside with Ron Payne
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: and Jonathan Allen, the sayings smart Aleck is the whole
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: is greater than the summer, the parts, like I knew
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: something like genius from Virginia. Yeah, we didn't study cliches
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: that U b a. J P. Let's come back in
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: a moment. The Jaguars defensive front seven, engineering and economics,
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: and we studied championships. Yeah, championship. You know you use
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: some studied. It's the Doug Peterson Show on Jaguars Radio.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: Welcome back. The Doug Peterson Show continues right now. Welcome
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: back j P. Shadrick with Jeff log Win The Doug
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: Peterson Show. We heard from head coach Doug Peterson at
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: the top of the program, glad you're with us. Week one.
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: The Jaguars and the Washington Commanders coming up. Familiar face
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: on the Washington offensive line. Andrew Norwell is the left guard.
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: He was here the last four years with the Jags.
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: He had come here in free agency. Good player, good player.
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: He had one year here that was not I think
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: where he wanted it to be. But I think overall
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: that was a good signing for the Jaguars, good consistent
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: player that was available. I don't know how many games
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: did he didn't hardly miss any games that all. He
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: was out there a lot. Yeah. So um, but good
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: for him. He's he's got a good job and in
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: the starting lineup. Again, the question is is that you
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: know if you if you let Brandon Norwell go and
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: any bring Brandon Sheriff and Andrew Norwell, I mean Brandon Sheriff,
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: Brandon Sheriff, then what are you winning that? Yeah? Yeah,
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: week one names are getting to kind of Brandon Sheriff
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: for for Norwell. I take that all day long. Yeah,
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't mind having both of those guys, right, to
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: be honest with you, bad was that overblown lot than
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: the Norwell criticism from fans sometimes? Yeah, I've said this
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: before that the and I think and when you have
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: a free agent acquisition and there's big money attached to
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: that signing, and then the expectations I think sometimes exceed
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: what where the player was when you signed him as
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: a free agent. So in other words, let's say you
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: bring a guy in, you overpay them in free agency,
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: which is what you do in free Agncy. Do you
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: expect him to to exceed the level of play that
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: he was at when you signed him. That's that's unrealistic.
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: And I think Norwell played at the level that he
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: did before when when you sign him. Now there was
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: he had a phenomenal year in Carolina to where I
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: don't think he allowed a sack and all. It was
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: an All Pro. And part of that was because of
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: the design of the offense and what they were doing,
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: which this team wasn't performing like that on an offensive level.
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: So it's kind of hard to ask a guy that
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: really was best when he was run blocking and being
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: a big maller the now all of a sudden become
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: a pass blocker the majority of the time. That's not
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: what he was doing in Carolina when he made All Pro.
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: So it's not all his fault, but he had Look
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: he had one year he had because one year he
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: had it was a tough year, and then he came
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: back the following year and he was fantastic. I thought
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: he played really well. And last year he had a
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: little bit of an up and down year, but it
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: wasn't a bad year by any stretch of the imagination.
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: I thought he might have been one of the most
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: consistent parts of their offense last year. Offensive line anyway,
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: This is the debut, of course for the Jaguars defense
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: and new look, new coordinator, a lot of new faces,
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: and the front seven will be a focus. You know,
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: Davon Hamilton, Roy Robertson, Harris fully Fedakassi has been on
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: the injury reports. Stop right there just for a second,
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: because you know, we we the popular thing is to
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: talk about the offensive line, but but one of the
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: parts that really people are just kind of just glossing
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: over is the defensive line in a lot of ways.
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: You know, everybody wants to talk about Josh Allen and
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: and the pass rush that the Jaguars are gonna be
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: able to roll out there with Trey Von and Devin
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: Lloyd maybe in some subsituations, and okay, yeah, I've got
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: Art and Key which did a little thing for Jaguars
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: social media and Art and Key, which I think he's
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: gonna add a lot to this, to this defense. But
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: there's question marks because you know the reality is, in
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: order to rush the passer, you gotta stop the run.
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: And if you don't stop the run at an effective level,
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: it's it's it's damn near impossible to play good defense,
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: and it's damn near impossible to rush the past for
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: effectively if you're allowing teams to run the ball on
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: first down with great success and then stop putting you
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: in the favorable down and distances that you would like.
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: So Devon Hamilton's I think, is a big key. He
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: fought Acasi is a key obviously with the with the injury,
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: you know he's gonna be back, and he's been really
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: good in the past. He's really stout. Devon Hamilton's last
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: year had a monster preseason. We're like, Wow, this guy
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: is tremendous, and then the season rolled around it was like, well,
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: you know what, ain't gonna work, not if you want
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: to play defense like you want to play here. So
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: Devon Hamilton's gotta elevate his level of play. And if
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: he elevates his level of play, do you have any
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: idea how much better it will be for Luken and
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: also for Devin Lloyd and Chad Muma. If Devon Hamilton's
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: playing well, I really believe that that's one of the
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: keys that nobody's talking about with this defense. Is Devon
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: Hamilton your your big nose tackle. I mean, you go
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: back to and you go back to the Pittsburgh Steelers
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: when when they were in their heyday, when I'm not
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: talking back in the seventies, I'm talking recent heydays when
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: they were winning Super Bowls recently, and they had one
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: of the best nose tackles in the game. And if
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: you have a great nose tackle, it makes the job
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: of a middle linebacker a lot easier. You go back
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: to the John Henderson and the Marcus Troud days when
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: they were combining in the middle here and although that
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: was a four three, you're still running a lot of
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: four or three concepts with this football team, and with
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: the personnel that you have. I always called those guys
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: two gap defenders or three gap defensive tackles. They made
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: the job of the linebackers incredibly easier. You're talking about
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: Casey Hampton Steelers. Casey Hampton was good. Uh he was
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: there for about what ten twelve years. He's there for
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: a long time, and that's always been some of the
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: five Pro Bowls. They are really good player. I mean,
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: will you talk about a guy is just immovable, I
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: mean just didn't go anywhere. And one of the reasons
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: why that those inside linebackers were able to look so
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: good is because he was just he was a beast.
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: And Devon Hampton he has the measurables. Now, I mean,
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: look at the guy. It's like six ft four five
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: pounds and it's like he ain't fast, No, he ain't fat.
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: I he's three on thirty five pounds, and and he's
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: got a shape to him, you know, not JP shape,
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: but you know, like a like a he's in shape shape.
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: Like I always say, my two fifty five is much
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: different than they're two fifty five. Let's come back in
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: a moment. We're gonna pick some players to watch Sunday.
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: I got a whole list. Yeah, we just need a couple.
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: There's there's so much curiosity with this football team in
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: my mind about how things look, how people will play,
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: how will they roll things out. It's endless, JP, It's endless.
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: That's why they play the game is to satisfy my
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: own curiosity. This show is not endless, though. We're back
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: at a moment. It's the Doug Peterson Show on the

  Speaker 1: this week, of course, are in Washington Land over Maryland,
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: just northeast of d C. And I was just looking
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: at the graphic picture of the no fees promo. Yes,
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: and Shaq Griffin better make sure that his uniform gets
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: fixed before game day. How so he's uniform co violation.

  Speaker 1: You see how his pants are like way above the knees.
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: Are you turning him in right now on the shows
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: that you're doing. I'm just saying, look, Shack likes to
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: keep his money. Make sure that he gets that gets
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: that knee covered with uniform. Police will come calling, Well
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: they do, they actually, they will take money out of
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: your pocket. First fine is a standard amountain then after
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: that it doubles, it gets worse. I mean, like I
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: don't want to give I mean your shack. You don't
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: want to give money away? Good call. Yeah, thanks for
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: looking out, he says, Um, so players to watch, Yes,
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: you could watch everybody. There's a lot of new around here,
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: but give me one or two guys you're really excited
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: to see finally on Sunday. Oh well, first of all,
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: a lot of tension is gonna go on Trevor Lawrence
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: just because he should. He's the quarterback. And is he
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: gonna take the the next step in his progression of
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: playing quarterback? Are we gonna see some of the things
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: that we saw in the preseason where he had slower
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: starts and you don't want to have that in a
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: regular season game. Can he have better eyes? Can he
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: get through his progressions faster? Can the accuracy and the
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: consistency be there? The decision making? All these things that
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: are are the requirements of playing quarterback. And it's a
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: lot easier for everyone else to do their job on
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: offense when the quarterback is executing the offense at a
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: high level. And I'm not trying to be critical and
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: say that it's all on Trevor, it's not. I mean,
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: there's guys that are around Trevor that have to do
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: their parts, but a lot of it. Like, for example,
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: Christian Kirk can't throw the ball to himself so that
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: he could be a playmaker with the ball in his hands.
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: The quarterback has to deliver it. The protection has to
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: be there as well. Defensively, what will they look like
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: with Mike Caldwell leading the way? What will Jamal Agnew
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: do not only as a returner but as maybe this
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: X factor with the offense or or is he not
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: going to be an ex factor? Do they hold that
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: card for later or whatever? How many targets will Christian
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: Kirk get in a game? Because I think he's getting
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: Last year he had like seventy seven catches. I think
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: he could probably get close to a hundred this year.
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: I really believe that. How will James Robinson look? How
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: will each n how will they complement each other? How
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: will tray Van look as a pass rusher? The first
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: overall pick in the draft? Because you know the reality
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: is the comparisons with Aiden Hutchinson, they're gonna be there,
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: and it's not again, it's not a week to week competition,
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: but there will be many people out there that follow
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: that and look at that and see if the Jaguars
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: made the right decision. And I think Trayvon Walker's awesome guy.
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: I think he's a heckup of football player. I mean
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: a hell of a football player. I can't wait to
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: see him in a game when I mean like a game,
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: for full on game to where he's unleash in power
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: for sixty minutes. Josh Allen, What will Josh Allen by
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: the way, Josh Allen tonight? Oh yeah, that's right, actual
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: Brent Martineau, Josh Allen and Trayvon Walker. Wow Wow, looking
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: forward to it. What a quartet? Do you think it
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: will be a little defensive end heavi ish kind of
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: a show. Let's say, everybody but um Martineau. Yeah, we'll
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: let Martineau be the uh the offensive tackle look guy. Yeah, yeah,
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: that's right. I like that idea. I was gonna say dummy,
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: but Brent's not a dunty, you know. Brent's good dude.
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: So looking forward to doing the show with him and
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: and Josh all year because Josh is gonna be our
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: co host this year, so that's that's cool. As at
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: Strings Brewery in Jacksonville, Springfield. That's right. It's at seven
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: o'clock seven o'clock, seven o'clock. Yeah, it's it's amazing how
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: things kind of come for full circle because years ago
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: when we were doing this uh at a different location,
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: we had Klais Campbell as the co host and then
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: we had a young Josh Allen on the show. That
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: Calais kind of grabbed, you know it, say, come on,
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: young man, you're gonna do my TV show. Well, tonight
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: we have Josh going to the young Man trade and walk,
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: come on, young man, you're gonna come do my TV show.
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: It's cool, you know, it's it's amazing Josh has become
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: that leader. And I hope that Josh has an amazing year.
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: You know, he's on um a year in which this
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: is a big year form from a contract standpoint, and
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: he had a solid year last year seven and a
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: half sacks. But uh, I can't wait to see what
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: his next step is. When we returned our final thoughts
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: ahead of Week one, it's the Doug Peterson Show on
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: Jaguars Radio. Welcome back. The Doug Peterson Show continues right now.
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: Welcome back. The final moments of The Doug Peterson Show
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: Week one. The Jaguars and the Washington Commanders coming up J. P.
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: Shaddick with Jeff Logaman. We obviously have a lot of
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: people here in Jacksonville around the States that follow the Jaguars,
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: that follow this show, but internationally as well. The Jaguars
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: have a presence in the UK. They played a game
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: there every year for about eight years and they'll go
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: there again in late October. So we would be remiss
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: if we did not mention the passing of Queen Elizabeth
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: the Second today, and our thoughts are with Britain's all
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: over the world. Who more than the loss of the
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: Queen today nineties six years of age and her son,
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: King Charles the Third kings to the throne automatically. How
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: about the King Charles, which was Prince Charles married to
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: Lady Diana for years and then she passed and he's remarried. Yeah,
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: it's um. You know what, JP, if somebody came out
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: to me and said, hey, look, would you take ninety six,
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: I'd take ninety six and a heartbeat. Yeah, Buddy r
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: went to the throne in nineteen fifty two. That's amazing
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: until today, amazing. All right, Um, Thursday night Football tonight
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: Bills and who they playing? The Rams? Will you meet you.
• 44:26

• 44:36
  Speaker 1: This is UH. This is on the streaming platform of Amazon,
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: and so there's a big curiosity as to how that
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: will play out. You know, how popular will it be,
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: what will the radiings be, how many eyeballs will be
• 44:50
