Transcript
- 0:03Speaker 1: It is Thursday August. This is Jaguars Happy Hour. And
- 0:11Speaker 1: now a guy who hasn't been in diapers in months,
- 0:15Speaker 1: Jay Peace shadd it has been a little while. We
- 0:21Speaker 1: will hear from Jay Gruden coming up as well. Welcome
- 0:24Speaker 1: in Jaguars Happy Hour on this Thursday afternoon from the
- 0:28Speaker 1: home studio. Just in a different room of the home
- 0:31Speaker 1: studio this week if you're watching on at Jaguars and
- 0:33Speaker 1: Jaguars dot com. J P. Shatrick with you. Glad to
- 0:37Speaker 1: be along with you as always, and Jeff Lagaman is
- 0:41Speaker 1: set up in his new look home studio as well, lives.
- 0:45Speaker 1: What's up, Bud. It's all good. J It's all good.
- 0:48Speaker 1: I like your background there. You got the musical thing
- 0:51Speaker 1: kind of going on there. Yeah, a little bit, you know,
- 0:54Speaker 1: rolling Stones, sky Trumps, mixing in some local flavor what not. Right,
- 0:59Speaker 1: it's a good thing. It's a good thing. It sits
- 1:01Speaker 1: you well. The let's get to what's coming up on
- 1:07Speaker 1: the show today. Camp continues. Of course we were out
- 1:10Speaker 1: there today. I was out there today for the second
- 1:13Speaker 1: day in a row. Defensive line changes. A lot of
- 1:16Speaker 1: moving parts there up front on the defensive side for
- 1:19Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars offensive installation that continues. That's the diaper
- 1:25Speaker 1: reference that Bruden talked about earlier. And we'll go around
- 1:30Speaker 1: the National Football League as we always do, so logs,
- 1:34Speaker 1: works out, workouts continue. This is really a phase two
- 1:37Speaker 1: type of situation. They're in helmets, um, there's no shoulder pads,
- 1:41Speaker 1: there's no contact, Offenses staying on their side of the field,
- 1:45Speaker 1: defenses on their field. They're not doing anything against each
- 1:48Speaker 1: other yet, so there's a lot of drill work to
- 1:52Speaker 1: be done. That's really about it right now. Yeah, so
- 1:55Speaker 1: are you are you really calling it camp? I mean really,
- 1:59Speaker 1: I mean it's it's not really a training camp so
- 2:02Speaker 1: to speak. I mean there's still in this build up
- 2:05Speaker 1: stage to get to the point where they do put
- 2:08Speaker 1: on pads, which is coming up, I believe on the fourteen,
- 2:12Speaker 1: I believe it is, or is it the seventeen. It's
- 2:14Speaker 1: coming soon. It's coming on the left right now. I
- 2:18Speaker 1: mean there, it's literally, I mean, this is going back
- 2:21Speaker 1: to the basic fundamentals of football, which can be good
- 2:26Speaker 1: and it also can be maybe not so good, because
- 2:29Speaker 1: I'm sure a lot of the older guys are like,
- 2:31Speaker 1: wait a minute, I graduated football one oh one years ago,
- 2:35Speaker 1: and I'm on advanced level of football here, and so
- 2:38Speaker 1: let's start working on other things and not just working
- 2:42Speaker 1: against bags and working against air. Let's work against each
- 2:45Speaker 1: other to where we can work on techniques and work
- 2:48Speaker 1: on the scheme and the entire scheme against the defense.
- 2:51Speaker 1: So but it's just as dun Morone said many times,
- 2:57Speaker 1: there's nothing normal about this year, and everything is new
- 3:00Speaker 1: and everybody's just gonna have to adapt to the jobs.
- 3:04Speaker 1: And part of that adjustment is a new offense too.
- 3:07Speaker 1: I mean that's they're in the midst of being on
- 3:09Speaker 1: the field for the first time. Though they can't you know,
- 3:12Speaker 1: they can run eleven, but they can't run against the defense.
- 3:15Speaker 1: So they're trying to work some things in. But it's
- 3:18Speaker 1: hard to do everything in a new offense right now. Long.
- 3:21Speaker 1: So we heard from Jay Gruden, the offensive coordinator, earlier
- 3:24Speaker 1: this week and he was asked, in fact, you know
- 3:27Speaker 1: how far along is this offense and how far is
- 3:29Speaker 1: left to go? I'm gonna not speak for you out
- 3:32Speaker 1: of respect for him. He's earned the right. He he
- 3:34Speaker 1: played his contract out, he played four years, and he's
- 3:37Speaker 1: earned the right to do what's best for him and
- 3:39Speaker 1: his family. And you know, obviously he's a guy that
- 3:43Speaker 1: we know what he brings to the table. His coaches
- 3:45Speaker 1: love him, his teammates love him. We all, you know,
- 3:48Speaker 1: we love love his energy, The fan base loves him.
- 3:50Speaker 1: So you know, ideally we would love to have him here.
- 3:53Speaker 1: But I'll let him speak on his behalf of of
- 3:56Speaker 1: what's going on. And um, I know he's uh making
- 3:59Speaker 1: some calculated decisions. We'll hear from Jake Bruden coming up
- 4:05Speaker 1: in just a minute. That, of course, was Dave called
- 4:07Speaker 1: Well discussing Unique in Gockway. And that's another situation, Lise.
- 4:10Speaker 1: It's happening this week. Reportedly Unique and Dockway part of
- 4:15Speaker 1: Ways with his agent again. So and Dave called Well
- 4:20Speaker 1: spoke with Unique and got way. What do you think
- 4:23Speaker 1: this means? Is this a good sign or is this
- 4:26Speaker 1: just another day in the life. I don't think it
- 4:31Speaker 1: really means anything, to be honest with you. The one
- 4:35Speaker 1: thing here that I will say, because I got a
- 4:37Speaker 1: lot of respecration Dockways, the player. I thought that the
- 4:40Speaker 1: way things were handled by him and his cap it
- 4:44Speaker 1: wasn't very good. Um, you don't criticize an an owner
- 4:49Speaker 1: of an NFL team, which is what and Gockway did
- 4:53Speaker 1: with Tony Kahn. Uh, you don't publicly question the organization
- 4:59Speaker 1: and a public warm I didn't understand that unless you're
- 5:03Speaker 1: I mean Jamal Adams. I guess. I mean it seems
- 5:06Speaker 1: that it's it's not isolated to just the Goockway situation,
- 5:10Speaker 1: but in my opinion, with the economics of the NFL
- 5:13Speaker 1: and the way things are right now, with the global
- 5:15Speaker 1: pandemic and a salary cap that's sure to be lowered
- 5:19Speaker 1: significantly in future years. Boy, I, if I'm a Gockway,
- 5:24Speaker 1: I'm probably looking back at that situation last year ago. Man,
- 5:27Speaker 1: I probably should have taken that opportunity at the extension
- 5:30Speaker 1: because I don't know if I'm gonna be able to
- 5:33Speaker 1: get that much money going forward. Was that part of
- 5:37Speaker 1: the thought process as to why he changed agents. I
- 5:40Speaker 1: don't know that, and Gockway is the only one that
- 5:43Speaker 1: knows the answer to that. But I would certainly be
- 5:46Speaker 1: having second thoughts and would be second guessing the decision
- 5:50Speaker 1: to turn that contract down at this point. Now, let's
- 5:55Speaker 1: get to the offense. We promised Jay Gruden and he
- 5:59Speaker 1: was asked this week, you know how far along is
- 6:02Speaker 1: this offensive installation and how far is left to go.
- 6:07Speaker 1: We're still in diapers right now. You know, we got
- 6:09Speaker 1: a long way to go. But uh, I'm excited about
- 6:12Speaker 1: the guys. First of all, you gotta have guys that
- 6:14Speaker 1: are willing to learn and willing to work. And I
- 6:15Speaker 1: feel like the mentality of this football team. Coach Maron
- 6:18Speaker 1: does a great job of setting the tone for this team.
- 6:20Speaker 1: And and these guys have come in and uh, they
- 6:23Speaker 1: don't act like they know it all or had done
- 6:25Speaker 1: blah blah blah. They they're willing to learn and do
- 6:27Speaker 1: things the way we want to do things now. Alright,
- 6:31Speaker 1: J Gruden the new offensive coordinator. And you know how
- 6:34Speaker 1: much can you really do in this time frame right
- 6:37Speaker 1: now until you get into past, There's not a lot
- 6:40Speaker 1: that can truly be done. Right. Well, first of all,
- 6:44Speaker 1: the reference to still being in diapers was classic. It
- 6:48Speaker 1: It's awesome. Uh. I think Gruden's got a little way
- 6:52Speaker 1: about them. I think both routens do that where they
- 6:54Speaker 1: can entertain when they have a little bit of a
- 6:56Speaker 1: press conference. But when you're at where you're at as
- 7:00Speaker 1: an offense and as a football team where you're not
- 7:02Speaker 1: even practicing offense against defense, absolutely you're still in diapers,
- 7:07Speaker 1: especially since you didn't have any O t s, you
- 7:10Speaker 1: didn't have any mini camps, you had nothing to develop
- 7:14Speaker 1: your offense with. So they're still at the very early
- 7:17Speaker 1: stages with this offense. And it's I don't want to
- 7:20Speaker 1: say it's comical, but it's it's kind of interesting to
- 7:22Speaker 1: see when he gets asked a question about, hey, how
- 7:24Speaker 1: does a guy look? Well, I mean, I don't want
- 7:28Speaker 1: to say this is the underwear Olympics, but I mean
- 7:30Speaker 1: they haven't had an opportunity to evaluate their personnel against
- 7:33Speaker 1: other people, so they've got a long way to goo um.
- 7:38Speaker 1: And I want to say this about Gruten. He is
- 7:40Speaker 1: fun to listen to and in a lot of ways,
- 7:43Speaker 1: I was thinking back to that that movie I think
- 7:47Speaker 1: it was Bull Durham was a Nu Laluche's right, Gruden
- 7:52Speaker 1: is he has got he has got some cliche and
- 7:55Speaker 1: I'm telling you he uses them all. Write this down, right,
- 8:03Speaker 1: which is one of the good stuff, greatest scenes of
- 8:06Speaker 1: a movie ever. Kevin calls just just write it down,
- 8:10Speaker 1: just write it down, and so Gruden when he was
- 8:13Speaker 1: doing it, I think it was about JP like a
- 8:16Speaker 1: twenty minute conversation with the media. Ballpark is somewhere in
- 8:19Speaker 1: there maybe eighteen minutes and uh and he you know,
- 8:23Speaker 1: and he's trying to be helpful, but I mean, the
- 8:25Speaker 1: simple answer to a lot of the questions is like, guys,
- 8:28Speaker 1: we we've just started, you know, we're we've acclimated, we're
- 8:32Speaker 1: just conditioning. We haven't even really practiced yet, So what
- 8:35Speaker 1: do you want me to say? So, I mean, I mean,
- 8:37Speaker 1: the the perfect phrasing by Gruden with the answers on
- 8:43Speaker 1: a lot of those situations. It was just flat out
- 8:46Speaker 1: entertaining for me anyway. And I think we'll have some
- 8:49Speaker 1: fun with Gruden throughout the year, hearing from him on
- 8:52Speaker 1: a weekly basis. On game weeks at least, the coordinators
- 8:55Speaker 1: are made available each and every week he is coordinating
- 8:58Speaker 1: an offense with a second your quarterback and Gardner minshew.
- 9:02Speaker 1: But it has been a while since Gardner has been
- 9:05Speaker 1: in this type of situation as the starting quarterback. Going
- 9:10Speaker 1: into a training camp and going into the season for
- 9:13Speaker 1: Gardner has been a long time. I actually haven't had
- 9:17Speaker 1: a camp like this going into it since I guess
- 9:20Speaker 1: my senior year of high school. So it's it's it's
- 9:22Speaker 1: it's awesome. Um, you know, kind of just being with
- 9:26Speaker 1: the guys and trying to figure out how we you know,
- 9:28Speaker 1: what we want to be as a team, because we
- 9:30Speaker 1: get to define that right now. There's a group of
- 9:32Speaker 1: the group of guys on this team, group of leaders
- 9:35Speaker 1: that have a very real opportunity to change culture here,
- 9:37Speaker 1: to develop a winning culture. Um, and I think it's
- 9:40Speaker 1: already starting. Yeah, I think about that, Logs. The last
- 9:45Speaker 1: time he was the starting quarterback going into a season
- 9:49Speaker 1: was high school. That's crazy, but it makes a lot
- 9:52Speaker 1: of sense because that college career was he took the
- 9:55Speaker 1: scenic route. I would guess you would say in his
- 9:57Speaker 1: college career going to a bunch of different places. You
- 10:00Speaker 1: have a bunch of different places now East Carolina Junior
- 10:04Speaker 1: College and until the West Coast. I mean, holy cow,
- 10:07Speaker 1: he's been all over the place. But make no mistake,
- 10:11Speaker 1: Gardner Minshill, I don't think feels comfortable, nor should he
- 10:14Speaker 1: feel comfortable. You know, he played ten games as a rookie.
- 10:18Speaker 1: I mean that's it. I mean so um And he
- 10:21Speaker 1: talked about changing the culture and he said he feels
- 10:24Speaker 1: like he's starting to change it now and and that's
- 10:26Speaker 1: the positive and that he feels that way. But the
- 10:29Speaker 1: reality is there's a there's a lot of steps that
- 10:32Speaker 1: you have to accomplish and meet before you say, okay,
- 10:35Speaker 1: we're changing the culture, because what are you trying to change?
- 10:40Speaker 1: I mean, if it's just wins and losses, Uh, then
- 10:44Speaker 1: you gotta be able to put games together in the
- 10:46Speaker 1: W column to say that you've changed the culture. But
- 10:48Speaker 1: there's a lot of things also that go into changing
- 10:52Speaker 1: the culture. But it's got to come from the players.
- 10:54Speaker 1: You know, playing played the game for a long time,
- 10:58Speaker 1: and it's not very often that culture change can come
- 11:02Speaker 1: just from the coaching staff. It's got to be a
- 11:04Speaker 1: joint effort, and you've got to have some strong leadership
- 11:07Speaker 1: in the locker room and hopefully Gardner Minshew in a
- 11:09Speaker 1: second year can then provide some of that because it's
- 11:12Speaker 1: not easy for young players to provide leadership in a
- 11:15Speaker 1: locker room. Sometimes it takes them a few years to
- 11:19Speaker 1: pay some dues and have success in the league for
- 11:22Speaker 1: them to have that leadership type of of of ability.
- 11:25Speaker 1: You've gotta have success and you've got to be a
- 11:26Speaker 1: good player before you can be a leader. I believe
- 11:29Speaker 1: in any NFL locker room and and looks this is
- 11:33Speaker 1: the challenge the great challenge not just for the offense,
- 11:36Speaker 1: but for this team as a whole. We've we've talked
- 11:38Speaker 1: about it all offseason, how young this football team is,
- 11:42Speaker 1: how new this football team is, right, not just the
- 11:45Speaker 1: youth and the rookies that are in, but the free
- 11:48Speaker 1: agent additions. Some familiar faces in the last two three
- 11:51Speaker 1: years are now moved on. They were leadership in that
- 11:54Speaker 1: locker room in some instances. It's a lot of turnover,
- 11:58Speaker 1: not just with rookies coming in, but with free agents
- 12:01Speaker 1: coming in and and who's going to climb to the
- 12:04Speaker 1: top of the mountain and if you will, in terms
- 12:06Speaker 1: of leadership, that's that's a huge challenge overall, not just
- 12:09Speaker 1: for the offense, but this entire football team. Who's gonna
- 12:12Speaker 1: step up well? And the change hasn't stopped I mean right,
- 12:17Speaker 1: I mean the defense. The v defensive line I think
- 12:20Speaker 1: is a perfect example of that. And they've had some
- 12:23Speaker 1: injury issues along the defensive front um. Now you're looking
- 12:27Speaker 1: at trying to sign guys that are on the street
- 12:31Speaker 1: and some veteran guys that are going to be available
- 12:33Speaker 1: in the next couple of days to be able to
- 12:35Speaker 1: practice with the Jaguars, and so uh, it's it's never
- 12:40Speaker 1: any process, and it's never good when you have you know,
- 12:43Speaker 1: you have two guys that opted out before you even
- 12:45Speaker 1: got the training camp, and then now that you've gotten
- 12:47Speaker 1: training camp, you put two guys on I R. And
- 12:50Speaker 1: then you have another guy with the non football illness
- 12:52Speaker 1: that can't practice and coach says, don't even ask me
- 12:55Speaker 1: for the next five or six days about where he's at.
- 12:58Speaker 1: You know. So, I mean if it's a constant process,
- 13:00Speaker 1: and it's a big challenge for this team because look,
- 13:02Speaker 1: you you've had a lot of change already and now
- 13:05Speaker 1: you have even more change with this defensive front. Uh. Boy,
- 13:09Speaker 1: it's unfortunately they haven't gotten to practices where they're in
- 13:13Speaker 1: pad yet. Boy, when you get the pads, you would
- 13:15Speaker 1: like to think their hope that your football team can
- 13:18Speaker 1: be as a as a group, healthy and available for
- 13:22Speaker 1: them to practice as a team. Let's come back in
- 13:26Speaker 1: a moment. We'll hear from Joe Schobert, Jaguars middle linebacker.
- 13:30Speaker 1: We'll see if this defense can get things going against
- 13:33Speaker 1: the run this year. We'll touch again on the defensive
- 13:36Speaker 1: line situation we just touched down there. We'll hear from
- 13:38Speaker 1: Avery Jones and see what the big fellow up Front
- 13:41Speaker 1: has to say about this Jaguars run defense and the
- 13:44Speaker 1: improvement they hope to make here in Bonos, Pitt Barbecue
- 13:49Speaker 1: is showing support for front line heroes by creating a
- 13:51Speaker 1: hashtag feed The front Line Campaign helps support our local doctors, nurses,

- 17:40Speaker 1: A S to kind of get in. That's usually when
- 17:42Speaker 1: the new guys get into the team and you start
- 17:44Speaker 1: to create that bond. I mean, we had virtual but
- 17:46Speaker 1: you can have bond so much over a computer screen.
- 17:49Speaker 1: So it's gonna be interesting this year for sure. I
- 17:52Speaker 1: think the team that adapts to this new system the
- 17:55Speaker 1: best is gonna especially out of the gates in the season,
- 17:57Speaker 1: UM be performing the best. So I think we have
- 18:00Speaker 1: a good squad on the defense. The guys have been
- 18:02Speaker 1: into it, been locked in, been been enjoying themselves, to
- 18:06Speaker 1: having fun out they're playing football and hopefully that'll be
- 18:09Speaker 1: able to take us the right way. Joe Schobert, the
- 18:13Speaker 1: Jaguars middle linebacker, acquired a free agency in this offseason
- 18:17Speaker 1: and welcome back Jaguars Happy Hour J P. Shadrick, Jeff Lagerman,
- 18:21Speaker 1: and Tony Poselli is coming up at four thirty, so
- 18:25Speaker 1: about twelve minutes or so from Big Bow. You know,
- 18:28Speaker 1: Schobert's um You know, I don't think he's talked about enough. Now.
- 18:33Speaker 1: We haven't seen them in pads or anything yet in
- 18:37Speaker 1: full go on defense logs, but you know he's he's
- 18:41Speaker 1: the middle linebacker. He's the one that's gonna be calling
- 18:43Speaker 1: the plays and the quarterback of the defense here. And
- 18:46Speaker 1: I don't think he's been as um covered I think
- 18:51Speaker 1: in media as he probably should. But I think he
- 18:53Speaker 1: will at some point. I think he's gonna turn some heads.
- 18:55Speaker 1: Hopefully we'll turn some heads once real football starts. Well,
- 18:59Speaker 1: you hope, and you hope, you hope that you get
- 19:00Speaker 1: some resolution to what's happening up in in front of him,
- 19:04Speaker 1: because you know, we we were expecting for Joe Schulbert,
- 19:08Speaker 1: have Alt Woods and Avery Jones and and other guys
- 19:13Speaker 1: that but now some are are unavailable because they're injured.
- 19:17Speaker 1: So you hope that you can get some type of
- 19:19Speaker 1: production up in front to allow Joe Schulbert and Miles
- 19:23Speaker 1: Jack to be as good as they can be so
- 19:27Speaker 1: interesting though. And I don't know if you happen to
- 19:30Speaker 1: catch this with Joe Schulbert's press conference. I'm sure you did,
- 19:33Speaker 1: but I thought it was really interesting because you here's
- 19:36Speaker 1: a new guy coming from another team that typically would
- 19:40Speaker 1: have all of the off season workouts. He left weights
- 19:44Speaker 1: with his teammates, get the noah his teammates, and have
- 19:48Speaker 1: practices with his teammates, and then eat lunch and dinner
- 19:52Speaker 1: and breakfast and all, I mean, all those things that
- 19:54Speaker 1: you that you do to bond with your teammates, and
- 19:57Speaker 1: he had none of it. And so all of a sudden,
- 20:00Speaker 1: out you start training camp late and you walk in
- 20:03Speaker 1: the door and you haven't ever really met anybody in person,
- 20:08Speaker 1: and now everybody's wearing masks, and so I was kind
- 20:13Speaker 1: of chuckled j P when Joe said, it's a challenge
- 20:17Speaker 1: in that when you go into a new building and
- 20:19Speaker 1: you meet people, but you're meeting this excuse my my
- 20:24Speaker 1: tone here, you know, and so you don't even get
- 20:26Speaker 1: to see their whole face. And so he said, it's
- 20:28Speaker 1: a challenge to meet people and get to know them
- 20:31Speaker 1: and to actually see who what they really look like
- 20:33Speaker 1: completely because everybody's wearing a mask. I just thought that
- 20:36Speaker 1: that was I thought it was insightful because I mean,
- 20:40Speaker 1: here's a guy that's a new guy that's trying to
- 20:42Speaker 1: find his way in the locker room, and a new
- 20:44Speaker 1: locker room at that, and it's all all these circumstances
- 20:49Speaker 1: are surrounded. I thought that that was a pretty deep
- 20:53Speaker 1: thought by Joe Schobert. And uh, and here's a guy
- 20:56Speaker 1: that I'm sure it was happy to get started here
- 20:58Speaker 1: in Jacksonville after going through living in the basement of
- 21:02Speaker 1: his in laws, I think is where he was at
- 21:04Speaker 1: prior to coming to Jacksonville. So I'm sure that that
- 21:07Speaker 1: was one of those moments we were like, yes, we're
- 21:10Speaker 1: out of the inlog basement. Yeah, he mentioned that at
- 21:13Speaker 1: his press conference the other day. I think it was
- 21:16Speaker 1: a mutual agreement that, uh, you know, it's probably a
- 21:19Speaker 1: good thing to get out of the basement. The parents
- 21:22Speaker 1: were probably like, yeah, you guys need to go on
- 21:23Speaker 1: and find your own place to two Way Street there.
- 21:26Speaker 1: Obviously on the defensive side of your lives, we've we've
- 21:30Speaker 1: harped on it a lot, but it's there's a reason why,
- 21:33Speaker 1: because it's the main reason this defense struggled last year
- 21:36Speaker 1: was they couldn't stop to run, certainly in the second
- 21:39Speaker 1: half of that season and that stretch of two yard
- 21:42Speaker 1: plus games against this defense. Avery Jones met the media today,
- 21:46Speaker 1: the big nose tackle who's been here for eight years now.
- 21:50Speaker 1: He was an undrafted player, the most tenured current Jaguar,
- 21:54Speaker 1: and he was asked about that run defense. How do
- 21:57Speaker 1: they improve it starting right now? Attention to detail. I mean,
- 22:03Speaker 1: we saw a lot of things where we was probably
- 22:06Speaker 1: in position to make up play, but little things like
- 22:09Speaker 1: hand placement, keeping our shoulders square kept us from doing that.
- 22:12Speaker 1: And then really just have to put it on our shoulders.
- 22:15Speaker 1: I mean, I'm telling the guys that we lost people
- 22:18Speaker 1: off this d line. Uh, the outside noise is expecting
- 22:23Speaker 1: us to drop off, and we just have to use
- 22:25Speaker 1: that to motivate ourselves. I mean, we watch film every
- 22:28Speaker 1: day and everyone felt like they have a chip on
- 22:30Speaker 1: their shoulder because they know they're a better player than that.
- 22:35Speaker 1: Abrey Jones has been around here for a long time
- 22:37Speaker 1: and a big piece of that Jaguars defensive front. It is,
- 22:41Speaker 1: as we've mentioned, a different looking defensive front. He mentioned
- 22:44Speaker 1: that there he knows how much turnover there has been,
- 22:47Speaker 1: but that's where this thing starts. Attention to detail. What
- 22:50Speaker 1: does he mean by that, Well, most importantly is that
- 22:55Speaker 1: you know you got to do your own job. I
- 22:57Speaker 1: mean there were instances last year to where you had
- 23:00Speaker 1: guys that weren't taking care of their responsibility. Because run
- 23:03Speaker 1: defense it is not rocket science. I mean it's really
- 23:08Speaker 1: it's not. Um it's a gap defense and you're in
- 23:12Speaker 1: your gap, and if you're I have somebody that doesn't
- 23:15Speaker 1: do their job and is out of their gap, then
- 23:19Speaker 1: you can't stop the run. And when Aby's talking about
- 23:23Speaker 1: attention to detail, a lot of times guys vacate their
- 23:26Speaker 1: gap for whatever reason. But you always have to make
- 23:30Speaker 1: sure that you do your job first and then after
- 23:33Speaker 1: that then you can go ahead and float to another
- 23:35Speaker 1: gap to maybe help out somebody else that's just getting
- 23:38Speaker 1: beat physically, which happens in the National Football League. So, UM,
- 23:43Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be a big challenge for this
- 23:45Speaker 1: Jaguars defensive. I mean, al Woods was expected to be
- 23:49Speaker 1: a big part of this run defense, a big, strong, physical,
- 23:54Speaker 1: run stuffing type player that has a lot of games
- 23:59Speaker 1: under his belt. And and and I'm gonna be honest
- 24:01Speaker 1: with you, JP, I thought his film from last year
- 24:05Speaker 1: was tremendous. I mean I'm talking tremendous when you know
- 24:09Speaker 1: he didn't play a ton of staff, but when he
- 24:10Speaker 1: did play, he was really good. And I thought it
- 24:14Speaker 1: was gonna be a big boost to this Jaguars run
- 24:16Speaker 1: defense having him. And then when he decided to opt out,
- 24:19Speaker 1: which totally understand and totally respect his decision, but that's
- 24:23Speaker 1: a big blow to this Jaguars football team. And and
- 24:26Speaker 1: now you've you've got the defensive tackle that they signed
- 24:29Speaker 1: from the Arizona Cardinals who has the non football illness,
- 24:33Speaker 1: which uh Ronnie Gunner. I mean, that's that's tough. I mean,
- 24:37Speaker 1: he's he was the other expected upgrade along your defensive front.
- 24:41Speaker 1: And that's the type of and that's the guy that
- 24:44Speaker 1: you're expecting to be a run stuffing type of guy.
- 24:48Speaker 1: And then Dante Vius Russell, who they kept last year,
- 24:51Speaker 1: uh nose tackle, undrafted guy or seventh round pick, he
- 24:55Speaker 1: was anyways a late type of prospect. I mean, he's
- 24:58Speaker 1: another guy that was expected to pa posibly help. Now
- 25:00Speaker 1: what can Karnweed and Carl Davison Josh Morrow do well.
- 25:04Speaker 1: I Mean, here's the reality they were. They were on
- 25:08Speaker 1: the Street for a reason, and if they were considered
- 25:12Speaker 1: to be A plus players, they would have had a contract.
- 25:15Speaker 1: There's only a few of those guys that are out
- 25:17Speaker 1: there that you can say they're unsigned and they're still
- 25:20Speaker 1: an A plus type of player, and one of those
- 25:22Speaker 1: being Clowney. And I think Clowney is a wonderful talent.
- 25:26Speaker 1: I think any football team can be better against Runner,
- 25:30Speaker 1: better defensively overall, but Jadavian Clowney on their football team. So, uh,
- 25:36Speaker 1: take a flyer on him, maybe have a conversation about him.
- 25:40Speaker 1: How expensive will never huh? How expensive would that be? Lugs?
- 25:47Speaker 1: That's the question. That's it's it's gonna be pretty expensive,
- 25:50Speaker 1: you know. And and here's the other thing. Doesn't even
- 25:53Speaker 1: want to come to play for your football team? You know? Uh,
- 25:57Speaker 1: Clowney is you know, that's that's the beauty of being
- 25:59Speaker 1: a free agent. And you know you can you can
- 26:01Speaker 1: make that decision based on money. You can make that
- 26:04Speaker 1: decision based on personal preference. And look, you may not
- 26:08Speaker 1: like the team's colors and say, you know what, I
- 26:10Speaker 1: don't want to play for that team because I don't
- 26:12Speaker 1: like teal or he may say, you know what, I
- 26:14Speaker 1: loved till I look good in till I want to
- 26:16Speaker 1: play for the Jaguars. You don't know, but but my
- 26:19Speaker 1: point is that it's there's very few people that you
- 26:22Speaker 1: can sign at this stage of the game that you
- 26:26Speaker 1: upgrade your roster. There's just they're just not many. I
- 26:29Speaker 1: thought the Dallas Cowboys did a pretty good job. They
- 26:33Speaker 1: signed Griffin Everything. Griffin, the defensive end who played for
- 26:36Speaker 1: the Minnesota Vikings. Still a productive player, still was close
- 26:39Speaker 1: to double digit sacks last year, has been a Pro
- 26:42Speaker 1: Bowl type player and has passed, and they got him
- 26:44Speaker 1: for a reasonable deal. Now, Clowney is you know it's
- 26:47Speaker 1: gonna be a little bit, a little bit more than
- 26:50Speaker 1: than that reasonable type of deal that Griffin got. You know,
- 26:55Speaker 1: most players, I would think their favorite color is money green,
- 27:00Speaker 1: first of all, um, and then second, you know, I'm
- 27:03Speaker 1: on the practice field yesterday, first day out, first day
- 27:06Speaker 1: in helmets. Uh, you know, the pr staff, everybody's doing
- 27:09Speaker 1: a great job keeping everybody distance, getting us in there
- 27:12Speaker 1: to begin with. But I'm looking at the roster right
- 27:14Speaker 1: we're talking about the defensive line, and there are teen
- 27:17Speaker 1: defensive linemen listed on the roster, and look up, fourteen
- 27:23Speaker 1: listed as defensive lineman right. So I look up at
- 27:27Speaker 1: defensive line drills and I see seven bodies. I'm like,
- 27:33Speaker 1: where the heck of the other guys? Well, one of them,
- 27:36Speaker 1: I think Cassius Marsh was running around with the linebackers.
- 27:40Speaker 1: That happens occasionally, you know, Um, let me to stop
- 27:44Speaker 1: you right there. Cassius Marsh is not a defensive lineman.
- 27:49Speaker 1: You know. He may put his hand in the ground
- 27:51Speaker 1: as a substitutional pass rusher, but he is not a
- 27:56Speaker 1: defensive man. I mean, he could in a in a pinch,
- 27:59Speaker 1: and you're like, oh my god, if we only had
- 28:01Speaker 1: seven guys active on game day and we need Cassius
- 28:04Speaker 1: Marsh to end up being maybe an extra defensive end
- 28:08Speaker 1: if need being an emergency situation, he could be that guy.
- 28:10Speaker 1: But he's not a defensive end. He's a he's a backer.
- 28:13Speaker 1: He's a stand up guy. It's interesting, though, that kind
- 28:16Speaker 1: of tells you that the lay of the land yesterday
- 28:18Speaker 1: when you had three guys who had just signed but
- 28:20Speaker 1: they couldn't go to the practice field yet because they're
- 28:23Speaker 1: still doing COVID testing. You had other guys injured, I mean,
- 28:26Speaker 1: was that's the way it was at least the first
- 28:29Speaker 1: day out. But it's kind of evened up a little
- 28:31Speaker 1: bit now, and I think that that brings up, you know,
- 28:34Speaker 1: another point that I think that the league, in my opinion,
- 28:38Speaker 1: needs to take a pretty serious look at. And Okay,
- 28:42Speaker 1: so let's say the Jaguars have a rash of injuries
- 28:46Speaker 1: in the middle of the season, or you have a
- 28:49Speaker 1: room that becomes infected. Right, so, uh, let's say five
- 28:55Speaker 1: guys are unavailable or an offensive line group is unavailable. Well,
- 29:00Speaker 1: you've upgraded the practice squad to sixteen, And in my opinion,
- 29:07Speaker 1: why not bigger than that? I mean, I mean, here
- 29:10Speaker 1: we are. We've we've been talking about how it's gonna
- 29:14Speaker 1: be tough for a lot of younger players to be
- 29:16Speaker 1: able to make an NFL roster this year, and you're
- 29:19Speaker 1: not gonna be able to see them for a lot
- 29:21Speaker 1: of time in training camp. Well, okay, if we're trying
- 29:25Speaker 1: to develop guys to be able to be future players
- 29:27Speaker 1: in the National Football League, let's continue to develop them.
- 29:31Speaker 1: And let's also give ourselves a little extra insurance policy
- 29:35Speaker 1: because you know what, if all of sudden, you can't
- 29:37Speaker 1: fulfill a deficiency in the middle of the season by
- 29:41Speaker 1: just with guys off of your practice squad. What are
- 29:44Speaker 1: you gonna do. Well, you can't go and bring a
- 29:47Speaker 1: guy out the street and have him playing in two days,
- 29:50Speaker 1: because he's gonna have to go through the COVID testing
- 29:53Speaker 1: to be able to be ready to go for a game.
- 29:56Speaker 1: So in my and look and practice squad guys. And look,
- 29:59Speaker 1: I'm not saying in at the NFL, uh can just
- 30:02Speaker 1: spend oodles of money, but I think they can afford
- 30:04Speaker 1: to pay maybe a few more extra practice squad guys.
- 30:07Speaker 1: And now, I guarantee if you went to the coaching
- 30:10Speaker 1: staffs of every NFL team, not one of them would
- 30:13Speaker 1: be against would be against having twenty let's say, on
- 30:18Speaker 1: the practice squad. Why not? Yeah, I bet not. It's
- 30:23Speaker 1: up to sixteen now, and let's come back in a
- 30:25Speaker 1: moment um. We'll continue this conversation. Logs Tony BASSELLI. You
- 30:29Speaker 1: might have heard of him. He's gonna join us when

- 34:46Speaker 1: the media earlier this week and welcome back Jaguars, Happy
- 34:49Speaker 1: our J P. Shadrick from the home studio, Jeff Lockman
- 34:53Speaker 1: from his home studio and in parts unknown speaking of
- 34:57Speaker 1: my tackles, Tony but Ellie joins us. First of all,
- 35:03Speaker 1: they say something Japan, you can't read, So what are
- 35:07Speaker 1: you all those books behind you for well to read? No,
- 35:12Speaker 1: you don't read, though I can read, but you don't.
- 35:18Speaker 1: I can't read. Okay, Well, this isn't going anywhere. I
- 35:23Speaker 1: just I think it's funny that everybody in today's world
- 35:25Speaker 1: that is doing these like home podcasts or like virtual
- 35:29Speaker 1: shows like we are because of coronavirus. I love like
- 35:32Speaker 1: looking at the set us behind them because they have
- 35:35Speaker 1: like these books and all these fancy things. I'm like,
- 35:39Speaker 1: come on, you know they had their wives. I guarantee
- 35:41Speaker 1: you Jeff and Tera come in and set up the
- 35:44Speaker 1: back office so it looks like he's like really like
- 35:46Speaker 1: sophisticated his leather chair with pictures and like he has
- 35:50Speaker 1: his he has his Virginia diploma up. They need to
- 35:53Speaker 1: pull out of the attic and dust off, and I mean,
- 35:56Speaker 1: it's so like, this is my office. I don't I
- 35:59Speaker 1: didn't have any up setting this up. The only the
- 36:03Speaker 1: only thing I did put in my office that's different
- 36:05Speaker 1: than what I would normally have the helmets right in
- 36:08Speaker 1: the middle of the day. Everything everything else is what
- 36:12Speaker 1: it is. Well, like I believe that because Jeff's pretty
- 36:15Speaker 1: organized in pretty detail anyways, But like JP, I guarantee
- 36:19Speaker 1: you he went out and bought a bunch of books
- 36:21Speaker 1: off Amazon to put in his bookshelf, so he looks
- 36:24Speaker 1: like he's smart. I've had them, I haven't opened them
- 36:28Speaker 1: in years, but they've been around in boxes, they're around
- 36:32Speaker 1: and now I can put them to use. So let's
- 36:34Speaker 1: move forward here. Let's move forward. Here we heard from
- 36:37Speaker 1: Cam Robinson there at the top, Tony, Let's get right
- 36:40Speaker 1: to it, man. It's uh, Cam Robinson coming off the
- 36:44Speaker 1: knee last year's you heard him say it was it's
- 36:47Speaker 1: night and day this year to last year, he wasn't
- 36:49Speaker 1: even cleared yet at this time a season ago, and
- 36:52Speaker 1: he said he really didn't feel normal until like the
- 36:55Speaker 1: last five games of the season. Um, but that's kind
- 36:59Speaker 1: of what I think we were talking about all year
- 37:01Speaker 1: with Cam Robinson. What can you expect now from Cam?
- 37:05Speaker 1: And then we'll get to Will Richardson in just a moment.
- 37:07Speaker 1: What did you make of Ham's comments there? Yeah, let
- 37:11Speaker 1: me let me just start pretty preface, like there's like
- 37:14Speaker 1: a doubt there's very many people in this organization or
- 37:18Speaker 1: this team or the city that are rooting harder than
- 37:20Speaker 1: I am for Cam Robinson because I really like Cam.
- 37:22Speaker 1: I think he's a big, physical guy, that man. He
- 37:25Speaker 1: brings its nasty of meanness to that group that they
- 37:28Speaker 1: need um and I love that he feels better for
- 37:34Speaker 1: me though, it's gonna be like the proof is gonna
- 37:35Speaker 1: be in the pudding when we're gonna watch tape and
- 37:38Speaker 1: we'll watch practice and everything else. Then we get into
- 37:40Speaker 1: the games. Does he revert to his bad habits, Does
- 37:44Speaker 1: he revert to his poor footwork? Because this was not
- 37:46Speaker 1: a knee issue, this was pre knee. He had some
- 37:50Speaker 1: footwork issues. Now he's such a big, powerful athletic man
- 37:53Speaker 1: he can get away with it. And now it was
- 37:56Speaker 1: exasperated last year because of the no doubt about it,
- 37:58Speaker 1: and I get know what he was experiencing. I've been
- 38:01Speaker 1: through it and it takes time to jeffs as well.
- 38:04Speaker 1: It takes you time to get back to feeling like
- 38:06Speaker 1: two year old self. But I still go back to
- 38:09Speaker 1: For me, I'm watching his feet. I'm watching this technique because,
- 38:13Speaker 1: in my opinion, Jeff, this was a pre knee issue.
- 38:17Speaker 1: Um that I hope he cleans it up for a
- 38:19Speaker 1: lot of reasons. One, I love to have a left tackle,
- 38:21Speaker 1: franchise left tackle, and I think Camber obviously gonna be that.
- 38:23Speaker 1: And then for him individually, big year because he's gonna
- 38:26Speaker 1: be a free and if he does figure it out,
- 38:28Speaker 1: go look at Laramie Tunsel's contract of twenty two million
- 38:31Speaker 1: bucks a year. He's gonna get paid and I'm always
- 38:34Speaker 1: for guys getting paid. Well, he's not gonna approach that
- 38:37Speaker 1: category just because Larrymie Tunsil has been able to do it,
- 38:39Speaker 1: you know, year after year after year. But I mean
- 38:41Speaker 1: Cam has an opportunity to be able to to take
- 38:44Speaker 1: care of himself significantly. And Tony right, and that the
- 38:48Speaker 1: feet issue or if defeat issues that he's had didn't
- 38:52Speaker 1: just show up because of the knee injury he had
- 38:54Speaker 1: him before. They were probably exacerbated a little bit last
- 38:58Speaker 1: year because of the knee injury. And it's kind of
- 39:00Speaker 1: sometimes hard. I've been there, Tony, You've been there. It's
- 39:03Speaker 1: hard to work on technique when you're just trying to
- 39:05Speaker 1: find a way to get through the practice, you know. So,
- 39:08Speaker 1: and he's got a good offensive line coach and coach Warhop.
- 39:11Speaker 1: If there's anybody that's gonna be able to coach the
- 39:13Speaker 1: technique in the in the Cam, it's gonna be coach Warhop.
- 39:16Speaker 1: So and I'm with Tony. I hope that he is
- 39:20Speaker 1: able to find the groove. I'm hope he's able to
- 39:22Speaker 1: improve because I love him, and what I love about
- 39:25Speaker 1: him is he is a dominant run blocker at times.
- 39:29Speaker 1: And there's not many left tackles that are playing at
- 39:32Speaker 1: the NFL level right now that you sit there and
- 39:34Speaker 1: you go, dang, that guy can run block and look
- 39:37Speaker 1: at him finish five, you know, five yards down the
- 39:40Speaker 1: field on a guy. But Cam is one of those guys. Now, look,
- 39:43Speaker 1: Will had did an impressive job when he was in there,
- 39:47Speaker 1: and I think this is a great situation that Look,
- 39:50Speaker 1: competition is a beautiful thing, and it will make both
- 39:54Speaker 1: guys better by having them compete against each other for
- 39:57Speaker 1: that playing time. So let's see it. Let's see the
- 39:59Speaker 1: comp Titian, let it begin. Yeah, let me and I'll
- 40:02Speaker 1: say this. Let's pick up on that thread. Jeff Um.
- 40:05Speaker 1: I never understood last year why they didn't give Will
- 40:08Speaker 1: rich is In the chance to compete for the job
- 40:11Speaker 1: throughout the year when when Cam was obviously not obviously
- 40:15Speaker 1: was struggling at times Um with technique and his knee
- 40:18Speaker 1: and his strength and everything else. And I I was
- 40:21Speaker 1: thoroughly impressed for a guy who was asked about two
- 40:24Speaker 1: days before opening day to go kick out the left
- 40:27Speaker 1: tackle position you've never played before. And I thought he
- 40:30Speaker 1: played in the two games, the two games that he played,
- 40:32Speaker 1: I thought he was good. I thought he saw it.
- 40:34Speaker 1: Now everyone go back to it. He got beat for
- 40:36Speaker 1: a sack, and you have in two games he gave
- 40:39Speaker 1: up like three pressures in a sack. Okay, great, that
- 40:43Speaker 1: happens you're playing from behind. I mean, all kinds of
- 40:46Speaker 1: things happened, and you know that as well as I do, Jeff.
- 40:48Speaker 1: But if you watch him on tape and you watch
- 40:50Speaker 1: his technique like he's not a guard, Let's be clear.
- 40:53Speaker 1: I don't think he's a guard. He is a He
- 40:56Speaker 1: can play you the tackle position, and I'm I for
- 40:59Speaker 1: one thought he'd get a shot last year to kick
- 41:01Speaker 1: out the left tackle and compete with Cam. And I'm
- 41:03Speaker 1: glad they're giving him the chance now, and I do
- 41:04Speaker 1: think it'll make Cam better. Tony. What did he play
- 41:09Speaker 1: in college? Though? Right tackle? You're around him a bit.
- 41:12Speaker 1: He was a right tackle in college pretty much dominant right. Yeah,
- 41:16Speaker 1: that's all you ever? So did he so I'm not mistaken.
- 41:20Speaker 1: I know at NC State he never took a snap
- 41:22Speaker 1: at left tackle. I think it was all the way
- 41:24Speaker 1: back to high school. He'd never been a left hander.
- 41:26Speaker 1: Stands um, I mean he was a he was a
- 41:30Speaker 1: right tackle. Only they drafted him they thought he could
- 41:33Speaker 1: play some guard. Um. I don't think he's a natural guard.
- 41:35Speaker 1: He's pretty long, and I think the suddenness sometimes gets
- 41:38Speaker 1: on top of him a little bit quick in the
- 41:40Speaker 1: past game. I think he can run block as a guard. Um.
- 41:43Speaker 1: I think he's better at space, which would lean him
- 41:46Speaker 1: towards the tackle position. And um, I was shocked, for
- 41:49Speaker 1: one that he was as effective as he was uh
- 41:53Speaker 1: in that opening game last year and even the first
- 41:55Speaker 1: two games at left tackle, for having never done it
- 41:58Speaker 1: and uh and with as he didn't get more rips
- 42:01Speaker 1: at it when Cam was obviously struggling because coming back
- 42:03Speaker 1: from the knee. Yeah, let me just add this too, though,
- 42:06Speaker 1: I think from a from a coaching standpoint there, there's
- 42:09Speaker 1: probably got to be a lot of comfort knowing that
- 42:12Speaker 1: you know when you go into a game. Okay, Cam
- 42:14Speaker 1: Robinson has been a left tackle his entire life and
- 42:17Speaker 1: that's all he's ever played. Well, now that we've got
- 42:20Speaker 1: Will Richardson, who he can play right tackle. He didn't college.
- 42:24Speaker 1: He's proven to us that he's played left tackle. He
- 42:27Speaker 1: competed for time at the right guard spot and can
- 42:30Speaker 1: play guard. So I think from a comfort standpoint in
- 42:34Speaker 1: the reality is, if you're in coaching, you want to
- 42:36Speaker 1: be comfortable going into a game day and you feel
- 42:38Speaker 1: really comfortable having Will Richardson as being your six guy
- 42:42Speaker 1: or seventh guys. You got somebody else who was a
- 42:44Speaker 1: backup center, but you feel really good about him having
- 42:47Speaker 1: that flexibility to play multiple positions. Whereas, Okay, if all
- 42:51Speaker 1: of a sudden, Will is your left tackle, he's got
- 42:53Speaker 1: to be significantly better than Cam Robinson because you need
- 42:57Speaker 1: to have a reason to take Cam Robinson. Okay, Now
- 43:00Speaker 1: we need to train him to be able to be
- 43:03Speaker 1: maybe that swing guy, and that's a lot to ask.
- 43:05Speaker 1: So I think if this is a competition, then Will
- 43:09Speaker 1: has to be significantly better, not just that much better,
- 43:13Speaker 1: but that much better than Cam to be able to
- 43:17Speaker 1: take him out of that swing role and insert him
- 43:19Speaker 1: and as a starter. Let's come back. One final segment

- 47:06Speaker 1: always joking, you know, you know what I mean. So
- 47:10Speaker 1: I think it kind of got out of hand to Misscrew,
- 47:13Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So I just wanted to
- 47:14Speaker 1: get that out there. You know, I'm not in a joke,
- 47:16Speaker 1: but when it comes to football and winning, I'm all
- 47:19Speaker 1: in for that. Leonard Fournette is not a jerk, he says.
- 47:26Speaker 1: Jaguar's Happy Hour J P. Shadrick, Jeff Loghman, Tony BASSELLI,
- 47:31Speaker 1: I'm curious to see Leonard play this year. Obviously, you
- 47:33Speaker 1: had a good year last year statistically, Um, you gotta
- 47:37Speaker 1: get in the end zone a little bit more. But
- 47:39Speaker 1: it's a contract year, and Tony, you know what that means, Um,
- 47:44Speaker 1: if there isn't motivation before, which there always has been,
- 47:47Speaker 1: there certainly is now for Leonard. You know, what was
- 47:51Speaker 1: the context of him not being the jerk? I didn't
- 47:53Speaker 1: What was the question, did you do something something? I
- 47:57Speaker 1: think that in the off season off season there were
- 48:00Speaker 1: in comments that maybe he was unhappy around here, and
- 48:02Speaker 1: there was they were talking about trading him away. That
- 48:05Speaker 1: was the storyline a little bit in the offseason, and
- 48:08Speaker 1: that he was a little disruntled at times and he
- 48:10Speaker 1: wanted to explain himself a little bit there. Yeah. I
- 48:14Speaker 1: didn't understand that part, but okay, um, yeah, I mean, uh,
- 48:19Speaker 1: it's a big air for him. I don't see him.
- 48:23Speaker 1: I mean outside of something crazy happening like where he
- 48:25Speaker 1: just goes crazy numbers, I don't see him. I think
- 48:28Speaker 1: this is his last year as a Jacksonville Jaguar. Um.
- 48:31Speaker 1: They didn't they didn't take the extra year and they
- 48:33Speaker 1: didn't extended the fifth year. Uh. And it'll be interesting
- 48:38Speaker 1: to see Jagrud's offense, you know, will he be the
- 48:42Speaker 1: center point where last year I mean they gave him
- 48:44Speaker 1: the ball and with the ricky quarterback, I mean, he
- 48:46Speaker 1: was right everything, run, game, pass, game, you know, never
- 48:51Speaker 1: came off the field unless he was hurt, like the
- 48:53Speaker 1: last game when he couldn't play. So, um, it'll be interesting.
- 48:57Speaker 1: But yeah, he's gonna be an important piece. This is
- 48:59Speaker 1: a team that is pretty young. They're best players are
- 49:03Speaker 1: you know, I mean as far as the guys who
- 49:04Speaker 1: are explosive are outside. Um d J. Chark had a
- 49:07Speaker 1: great year. Uh so no the rookie I mean, big, powerful,
- 49:11Speaker 1: fast guy that they're going to count on. Um. So
- 49:14Speaker 1: you have some really young guys, you know, big questions
- 49:16Speaker 1: at the tight end with Tyler Eiffert, Um can he
- 49:19Speaker 1: have you know, he's been injury riddled throughout the last
- 49:24Speaker 1: several years of his career. And I say all that
- 49:25Speaker 1: because so it circles me back to Leonard four Nette.
- 49:28Speaker 1: I mean he has to have a big year for
- 49:29Speaker 1: this team to be successful and to score points. I
- 49:33Speaker 1: mean him obviously not most important. It's Carter Minshew, but
- 49:38Speaker 1: he's pretty close up there because they're gonna need to
- 49:41Speaker 1: find production, uh to score points in offense. Well, he's
- 49:45Speaker 1: been one of the most consistent producers for this offense
- 49:48Speaker 1: over the last couple of years. Is from from a
- 49:51Speaker 1: production and touches standpoint, and he needs to be exactly that,
- 49:56Speaker 1: especially this year for a couple of different reasons, some
- 49:59Speaker 1: of them resid on his side of the ball. I
- 50:01Speaker 1: mean partner Minshew being the first time starting quarterback. You've
- 50:05Speaker 1: got a wide receiver group besides d J. Chart. I mean,
- 50:10Speaker 1: and he did it for one year, one year only
- 50:13Speaker 1: it's very unproven. You have a tight end group that.
- 50:17Speaker 1: I will say this. I don't care if Tyler Eiffert
- 50:19Speaker 1: was a veteran guy or not. He's unproven too because
- 50:22Speaker 1: it hadn't proven injurious yeah that he hasn't can't stay
- 50:25Speaker 1: on the field. He did it for one year last year.
- 50:27Speaker 1: And I think the one thing of note watching his film,
- 50:31Speaker 1: Tyler Eiffert's film is that once he got the ball,
- 50:34Speaker 1: he didn't do a whole lot of exciting things with
- 50:37Speaker 1: the ball in his hands. It was like he was
- 50:39Speaker 1: in self preservation mode a little bit, looking to make
- 50:42Speaker 1: sure that he didn't take any tough hits. So okay,
- 50:45Speaker 1: so where are you going to get that electrics, you know,
- 50:49Speaker 1: consistent performance from While I think Leonard Fordette has to
- 50:52Speaker 1: be one of those guys, the offensive line has to
- 50:54Speaker 1: be one of the guys because it also reaches to
- 50:56Speaker 1: the other side of the ball, and that the Jaguars
- 50:59Speaker 1: defense is under construction in time of possession and controlling
- 51:03Speaker 1: the clock and keeping the defense off the field is
- 51:05Speaker 1: going to be I think very important for this Jaguars
- 51:08Speaker 1: defense until it confined a little bit of rhythm. I mean,
- 51:11Speaker 1: here here's the crazy thing. A couple of years ago,
- 51:13Speaker 1: we were talking about one of the best defenses in
- 51:17Speaker 1: the league. Is this the best defense in the league?
- 51:20Speaker 1: And now we're talking about the importance of an offensive
- 51:23Speaker 1: line and a running game to help maybe lessen the
- 51:26Speaker 1: burden on this defense. But I mean, how things have
- 51:29Speaker 1: changed for this Jaguars football team and a couple of
- 51:32Speaker 1: years to go from that, you know, the elite of
- 51:34Speaker 1: elite defenses in the National Football League to now having
- 51:38Speaker 1: a lot of question marks across the board on the
- 51:41Speaker 1: defensive side of the ball. Jeff, what's your biggest question?
- 51:44Speaker 1: Let me just and I know where you want to
- 51:46Speaker 1: go with this, JP, but I'm gonna just steer it myself.
- 51:49Speaker 1: What is your biggest question? Because I think you bring
- 51:51Speaker 1: up a great point. I mean, you look at both
- 51:53Speaker 1: sides of the ball, um a lot of questions and
- 51:56Speaker 1: offense and we always kind of just said, yeah, but
- 51:58Speaker 1: the defense is good out there might be more questions
- 52:02Speaker 1: on defense than they are on offensive. Oh, there absolutely,
- 52:04Speaker 1: As I think, and as you look at that, what's
- 52:06Speaker 1: your biggest what is your biggest question or concern on defense?
- 52:11Speaker 1: I'll start with what what is the most important aspect
- 52:14Speaker 1: of being a good defense the National Football League? And
- 52:17Speaker 1: it's got to start and stopping to run. And we
- 52:19Speaker 1: saw Tony you saw it last year. They had trouble
- 52:21Speaker 1: stopping to run and stopping the run. You gotta be
- 52:24Speaker 1: good in the middle. And when I say the middle,
- 52:26Speaker 1: nose tackle, three technique inside linebackers because there's two and
- 52:31Speaker 1: then safety. Um, are they strong at at that middle
- 52:36Speaker 1: area on the defense? Well, you had one of your
- 52:40Speaker 1: guys Outwood's opt out gunners on non football illness. He's out.
- 52:45Speaker 1: Joe Schobert I think has a lot to prove. Yet,
- 52:48Speaker 1: even though he was an expensive free agent, mile Jack
- 52:51Speaker 1: hasn't played will before consistently. So how will he look
- 52:54Speaker 1: because last year when he played, Mike didn't have a
- 52:57Speaker 1: great year. Were the performance of the safety he's consistent
- 53:01Speaker 1: at all? Last year? No? You know, so you have
- 53:04Speaker 1: some mistacker Ron Harrison exactly didn't have you know, the
- 53:08Speaker 1: best performance of his career last year. So uh, that's
- 53:13Speaker 1: a major concern of mine is that this Jaguars defense
- 53:17Speaker 1: went from Ben. I mean, holy cow, you had Darius
- 53:21Speaker 1: and the league and Calais and in pause going back
- 53:25Speaker 1: a couple of years with Miles Jack and Telvin and uh,
- 53:29Speaker 1: you had consistency at safety with two veteran guys, and
- 53:32Speaker 1: now all of a sudden, in a couple of years,
- 53:34Speaker 1: it's all changed. Which you know, the league is about changing.
- 53:37Speaker 1: It always happens. But that's a lot of change in
- 53:39Speaker 1: the short amount of time. Interesting all the things you
- 53:42Speaker 1: just said, Jeff, I agree, and you know one of
- 53:45Speaker 1: the big stories this offseason, even the campusn Gockway and
- 53:49Speaker 1: Gockway doesn't fix any of those problems you just talk about. No, No,
- 53:52Speaker 1: he does not none of them. That's still a good
- 53:55Speaker 1: pass rushers. You want him on your team, but you
- 54:00Speaker 1: want to be in camp, but you want him out there.
- 54:02Speaker 1: I'm just saying, what's so interesting one of the guys
- 54:05Speaker 1: that so much discussion has been around and Ben, get
- 54:08Speaker 1: him and can we get him back? And what are
- 54:09Speaker 1: we gonna do with them? And he's like all the
- 54:11Speaker 1: things you just said has almost zero impact on UM
- 54:15Speaker 1: because I mean, at his best he said above average
- 54:20Speaker 1: running bought a player, but he plays outside and he's
- 54:23Speaker 1: you know outside in when you say, when you say
- 54:25Speaker 1: at his best, he has moments where he's an above
- 54:29Speaker 1: that's what I said. Yeah, I mean he's a pure
- 54:31Speaker 1: pass rusher. He's a disruptor from the edge. UM. But
- 54:35Speaker 1: if you look at you, he really because of what
- 54:39Speaker 1: you said, his impact even goes down when you think
- 54:41Speaker 1: about it, because you can run, you know what else
- 54:44Speaker 1: you can't do. You can't get teams in the third
- 54:47Speaker 1: and long and passing only situations, and so that is
- 54:51Speaker 1: it's such a I mean, I couldn't agree more. I
- 54:53Speaker 1: think you know one of the things and done talking
- 54:56Speaker 1: about it at the beginning. It can't be brought up
- 54:58Speaker 1: to Pavin Bryant and you and I have talked about
- 55:00Speaker 1: taming a lot. He's gonna be the three technique. He's
- 55:03Speaker 1: gonna have to become a productive player on this team
- 55:05Speaker 1: if they want to be able to stop the run
- 55:07Speaker 1: UM or have a chance to stop to run. And
- 55:10Speaker 1: I mean that's just one Showbert agreed he's gonna have.
- 55:13Speaker 1: If you look at Cleveland what was he known for.
- 55:15Speaker 1: He was more known for his pass coverage and a
- 55:17Speaker 1: good pass defender. Um, he's got to become a middle
- 55:20Speaker 1: linebacker run stuff and guy Miles Jack and all the
- 55:23Speaker 1: way down to the safeties. UM. And I bring that
- 55:26Speaker 1: up because everyone talks about Josh Allen and if you
- 55:29Speaker 1: get your unique back and uh chase on who you
- 55:32Speaker 1: drafted in the first round out of LSU. All these
- 55:34Speaker 1: guys are explosive splash players that can really get after
- 55:38Speaker 1: the quarterback and physical and run around and make plays
- 55:42Speaker 1: you can't stop to run. Well, you really knowify the
- 55:45Speaker 1: impact those type of players can have on your football team.
- 55:50Speaker 1: Al Right, guys, let's go around the National Football League
- 55:53Speaker 1: at some headlines before we get out of here. And
- 55:55Speaker 1: we start with the league and the NFL p A
- 55:58Speaker 1: agreeing to extend daily co of A nineteen testing through
- 56:01Speaker 1: September five tier one and two positive tests below one
- 56:05Speaker 1: percent so far since arrival, and no individual club rate
- 56:09Speaker 1: is greater than two percent. So Tony, so far, so good.
- 56:13Speaker 1: J Let me let me jump in right there real quick,
- 56:15Speaker 1: because I held my nose, Tony, because you probably went
- 56:18Speaker 1: through this process. You're talking about daily COVID testing For
- 56:21Speaker 1: the people that aren't familiar with this, the nasal swab technique, Jeff,
- 56:29Speaker 1: I have not, but I've got some friends that have
- 56:31Speaker 1: had to go through it, and they said it's it's
- 56:33Speaker 1: absolutely horrendous. Yeah, I call it the brain tickler because
- 56:36Speaker 1: they don't just do your nose and all the way
- 56:38Speaker 1: to the brain, you know, picking your brain. But I'm
- 56:40Speaker 1: pretty sure that, if I'm not mistaken, the test that
- 56:43Speaker 1: the players are doing the NFL is not the nasal
- 56:47Speaker 1: swap that goes all the way back. It's more of
- 56:49Speaker 1: a just internal It's maybe advanced technology. That's what someone
- 56:53Speaker 1: told me. I don't know if it's accurate. If God
- 56:55Speaker 1: bless them, if they have to do the brain tickler
- 56:57Speaker 1: every day, I did do seven times. It's like it's brutal,
- 57:02Speaker 1: um and so uh yeah, it's uh, you know, it's goods.
- 57:08Speaker 1: I was one. I've had it. My family's had it.
- 57:12Speaker 1: I said this the other day about for state football,
- 57:14Speaker 1: my kids playing there. I think they should play football.
- 57:16Speaker 1: I think I think I was disappointed the Big ten
- 57:19Speaker 1: in the Pact twelve what they did. Um. If you
- 57:22Speaker 1: look at the numbers, the risk factors of the age
- 57:25Speaker 1: group of these men who are playing football, whether it's
- 57:27Speaker 1: in college or professional football, for the most part, very
- 57:30Speaker 1: very low risk. I'm not saying it's zero risk, but
- 57:34Speaker 1: it's low risk. And I know this. If I was
- 57:36Speaker 1: a player on the things, I'd be worried about. As
- 57:39Speaker 1: far as happening to be on the football field, COVID
- 57:41Speaker 1: would not be at the top of it. Now. The
- 57:43Speaker 1: key is, with all of this being uh, all that
- 57:46Speaker 1: being said, it's not around the facility I worry about.
- 57:50Speaker 1: It's not on the field I worry about it, says
- 57:52Speaker 1: these guys get out of camp and get into the
- 57:54Speaker 1: daily life of being just a person. Um you So
- 57:58Speaker 1: are they gonna have to discipline not to go out
- 58:00Speaker 1: and do things they shouldn't be and be around people
- 58:02Speaker 1: they shouldn't be around as far as go home, you know,
- 58:05Speaker 1: be smart, beat with your family, like, try to isolate
- 58:08Speaker 1: yourself as much as possible. We just saw a rookie
- 58:10Speaker 1: I don't know the kid's name up in Seattle got
- 58:12Speaker 1: cut today because in camp he tried to sneak a
- 58:16Speaker 1: uh female friend into the facility um when he wasn't
- 58:21Speaker 1: supposed to, broking, breaking all testing protocols and everything else.
- 58:25Speaker 1: And so that's what you worry about like, these are
- 58:27Speaker 1: young guys and we forget that sometimes, like you have
- 58:30Speaker 1: some older veterans. Actually, I should say that the Jaguars
- 58:32Speaker 1: don't put other teams of older veterans, um, but these
- 58:36Speaker 1: are young guys. And the key is for this thing
- 58:38Speaker 1: to work and for us to get through this without
- 58:40Speaker 1: UM significant positive tests is what they do outside of
- 58:44Speaker 1: the facility. I think that's really important, um, for these
- 58:47Speaker 1: guys to be thinking about. All right, good stuff. Some
- 58:51Speaker 1: other notes to say. George Kittle agrees to a five year,
- 58:54Speaker 1: seventy five million dollar extension with San Francisco. Everson Griffin
- 58:58Speaker 1: gets a one year deal worth up to six million
- 59:00Speaker 1: dollars with the Cowboys, and the ratings down for Hard
- 59:04Speaker 1: Knocks on the first episode this week drew only two
- 59:06Speaker 1: seventy thousand viewers, as opposed to over seven hundred thousand
- 59:10Speaker 1: a year ago. Tony, good stuff. We'll talk to you
- 59:13Speaker 1: again next week. Next talk to you Monday. The show
- 59:17Speaker 1: kicks off Monday, JP. Let's go, Yeah, It's it's coming
