- 0:33Speaker 3: Happy Hour for a victory Monday. Got a great offensive
- 0:36Speaker 3: out put from the team yesterday, their first win of
- 0:38Speaker 3: the season coming up today. We're gonna keep it real.
- 0:41Speaker 3: Of course, we will answer your fanatic fan questions and
- 0:44Speaker 3: a lot of stuff to go over. It was not
- 0:46Speaker 3: a perfect win by any means, but it's a lot
- 0:48Speaker 3: easier to go over things after a win as opposed
- 0:51Speaker 3: to what we have been dealing with. So let me
- 0:53Speaker 3: welcome everybody in CBS Sports Senior writer Pete Prisco, Hall
- 0:56Speaker 3: of Famer Tony Biselli is with us today. And it's
- 0:59Speaker 3: a victory Monday. How how relieved should we be? And
- 1:03Speaker 3: is this just the Colts being the cults or did
- 1:05Speaker 3: the Jaguars do some good things?
- 1:08Speaker 2: Listen, first and foremost. I think you got to give
- 1:10Speaker 2: the Jags the credit. I mean that's an NFL team,
- 1:13Speaker 2: and every team has injuries. Now, you could argue they
- 1:16Speaker 2: had a bunch. I mean their best player on offense
- 1:18Speaker 2: was out. I think they were better off with their
- 1:20Speaker 2: backup quarterback Frankly, and I think they had five or
- 1:24Speaker 2: six defensive starters and some key ones up front like
- 1:28Speaker 2: no Buckner, no Quidye Pay. They also another guy back
- 1:34Speaker 2: in camp, Sam bankou Or. I can't say yeah, you
- 1:41Speaker 2: want to say it because it's not in front of me,
- 1:43Speaker 2: and I I'm gonna butcher it. So I apologize. But
- 1:48Speaker 2: with that said, I mean we have injuries where without
- 1:50Speaker 2: a starting corner, where without people too, I mean that's
- 1:52Speaker 2: the NFL pete. But I think more than anything and
- 1:56Speaker 2: we can I want to talk about the offense. Well
- 1:58Speaker 2: we're gonna talk about both. Because the defensive collapse in
- 2:01Speaker 2: the fourth quarter giving up twenty four points, oh my,
- 2:03Speaker 2: I mean we got to talk about that. But overall,
- 2:07Speaker 2: the biggest thing that stood out to me and the
- 2:09Speaker 2: reason they won this game, forget about the opponent, is
- 2:12Speaker 2: because they made plays when they had to, and they
- 2:14Speaker 2: made plays that were there I mean, you go back
- 2:17Speaker 2: to Miami, if they make plays that are there, they
- 2:19Speaker 2: win the game. Probably if you go back to Houston.
- 2:24Speaker 2: I mean two deep shots. I mean Trevor hit those
- 2:28Speaker 2: this week. He did and he didn't that week and
- 2:30Speaker 2: probably the difference of winning. I mean, so you can
- 2:32Speaker 2: do that every week and people all the time says, oh,
- 2:35Speaker 2: we could have we should be you know, four and one.
- 2:37Speaker 2: I'm like, Okay, that's how losing organizations talk like, start
- 2:42Speaker 2: talking about if we did this, right, Yeah, you didn't,
- 2:45Speaker 2: So let's not worry about that. But let's also celebrate
- 2:48Speaker 2: what you did this week, which is played really good football,
- 2:52Speaker 2: especially on the offensive side of the ball.
- 2:55Speaker 3: And I think Tony you mentioned this is the offense
- 2:56Speaker 3: we were hoping to see, right, we were going to season
- 2:58Speaker 3: seeing all these weapons, kind of hoping Trevor could make
- 3:01Speaker 3: that jump and find all of them and then the
- 3:03Speaker 3: running game.
- 3:04Speaker 2: But I'll say this, yes, I agree with you, kay,
- 3:07Speaker 2: But the reality is is the reason they were productive
- 3:10Speaker 2: in my opinion, because I thought they were productive against Houston.
- 3:13Speaker 2: I mean, the quarterback, Trevor just didn't play well and
- 3:17Speaker 2: he played outstanding on Sunday. But the big key is
- 3:22Speaker 2: and Pete, I don't know if you agree with me
- 3:23Speaker 2: or not. The offensive line back to back weeks played
- 3:26Speaker 2: outstanding football. And I'm the like, I'm the biggest O
- 3:31Speaker 2: line apologist because I think it's the most important once
- 3:34Speaker 2: you have a quarterback. There's nothing more important on a
- 3:37Speaker 2: team than establishing an offensive line that can set the
- 3:40Speaker 2: tone for the entire team. And I thought they played
- 3:44Speaker 2: just not good football for three weeks. You know, as
- 3:47Speaker 2: a unit, we can break down each individual. Actually we're
- 3:51Speaker 2: not going to do that. It is what it is.
- 3:54Speaker 2: The last two weeks they played really good football. Now
- 3:57Speaker 2: they have moments, like every offense line is moments during
- 3:59Speaker 2: a game where you're you wish he was cleaner in
- 4:02Speaker 2: certain places and everything else. But overall, you go watch
- 4:05Speaker 2: the last two weeks and especially Indie, they were dang
- 4:10Speaker 2: right dominant at times in physical and pushing people and
- 4:14Speaker 2: getting to the next level. And Pete, I was critical
- 4:18Speaker 2: of this group. I said they look like they bought
- 4:20Speaker 2: a ticket on certain plays of watching, not one time
- 4:24Speaker 2: in that Indie game did I feel like guys were
- 4:28Speaker 2: stopping before the whistle.
- 4:30Speaker 4: I mean there were a couple not Cam Robinson did
- 4:35Speaker 4: it on a run and play and his man came
- 4:36Speaker 4: down and made the play. Anton Harrison did it on
- 4:39Speaker 4: a run and play and his guy came down.
- 4:43Speaker 2: That finish, that finish that you like.
- 4:45Speaker 4: You always talk about backside on the backside, particularly if
- 4:48Speaker 4: they hold those just for a little bit longer, then
- 4:52Speaker 4: the runner gets up the field and that guy doesn't
- 4:54Speaker 4: come down and make the tackle.
- 4:55Speaker 2: So there were a couple, but it was better, Okay,
- 4:58Speaker 2: I'll give you so. It always can improve. It's never perfect.
- 5:01Speaker 2: It's never as good as you thought it was. When
- 5:03Speaker 2: you go watch the tape, and it's never as bad
- 5:04Speaker 2: as you thought it was, except for the rare instances
- 5:07Speaker 2: on both sides. I thought watching the tape this morning,
- 5:11Speaker 2: they played winning football, and they played outstanding football. One pressure, No,
- 5:16Speaker 2: it's not a great pass rush group, but I don't care.
- 5:19Speaker 2: One pressure in today's football, that's a great job. That's
- 5:22Speaker 2: an outstanding job. You go look at it.
- 5:25Speaker 5: The rookie from UCLA had been getting pressure.
- 5:27Speaker 2: And he did not. He got nothing. He got nothing.
- 5:29Speaker 2: And then if you watch the run game, like my
- 5:32Speaker 2: only criticism the way tanks going, you gotta give more
- 5:35Speaker 2: than ten carries or eleven carries whatever, you're twelve whatever
- 5:38Speaker 2: he had. I like, let's feed the rock to hymns
- 5:40Speaker 2: more because the way he's running and the way that
- 5:44Speaker 2: offensive line blocked the last two weeks, it's really it's
- 5:48Speaker 2: really fun to watch. So kudos to the group because
- 5:52Speaker 2: listen at zhe to four and all the noise. You know,
- 5:58Speaker 2: if you go back to last week, we had reports
- 6:01Speaker 2: of Doug losing the locker room, which every player says ridiculous.
- 6:05Speaker 2: You had questions of what's going on, and you know,
- 6:07Speaker 2: pointing fingers and you know this group and that group,
- 6:10Speaker 2: and all the noise. Fire this guy, fire them. I mean,
- 6:12Speaker 2: it was the fire fest last week. If you were
- 6:16Speaker 2: on X and in those situations you find out what
- 6:21Speaker 2: kind of team you have. I think I really believe
- 6:23Speaker 2: in what kind of locker room you have. And I
- 6:26Speaker 2: give those guys a ton of credit, starting with Doug
- 6:28Speaker 2: and his entire staff and all those guys in that
- 6:31Speaker 2: locker room, because it's the easy button is just to
- 6:35Speaker 2: check out and just think about yourself and do whatever's
- 6:38Speaker 2: best for you as an individual. The hard thing is
- 6:41Speaker 2: digging in and saying, hey, this is a long season.
- 6:45Speaker 2: No one thinks we can do it. We do. Let's
- 6:48Speaker 2: play the type of football we believe we can. Let's
- 6:51Speaker 2: continue to get better each week. And that's what they did.
- 6:55Speaker 2: And it was a great offensive performance, and I'll say this,
- 6:58Speaker 2: it was a really good defensive performance. With three quarters,
- 7:02Speaker 2: it kind of went away. And at the end of the.
- 7:05Speaker 4: Let me get to the to the elephant in the room,
- 7:07Speaker 4: and that's the quarterback.
- 7:11Speaker 5: The quarterback looked different. And I know you talked we
- 7:14Speaker 5: can talk about the offensive likease. I agree with you.
- 7:16Speaker 4: They played well, but the quarterback tightened up a lot
- 7:19Speaker 4: of things. And I went back and watched last week's
- 7:21Speaker 4: game and compared it to this week's game. The motion
- 7:24Speaker 4: was quicker, the long stride was shorter. I think he
- 7:28Speaker 4: got back to his basics. And when you see the
- 7:30Speaker 4: ball coming off his hand, it came off differently. You
- 7:33Speaker 4: know the shot down the down, the down the field
- 7:36Speaker 4: that it was an effortless, easy throw and it wasn't
- 7:39Speaker 4: a long stride. He was clean in the pocket. And
- 7:41Speaker 4: I went back and I compared it, and I don't
- 7:43Speaker 4: know if he saw it setting him out to the
- 7:45Speaker 4: throw last week where he was long striding and not
- 7:48Speaker 4: his feet weren't facing the right direction.
- 7:51Speaker 2: I think he went back to his basics. Antony.
- 7:53Speaker 4: We talked about this a lot last week. The kid
- 7:57Speaker 4: was playing robotic football. He really was, And I the
- 8:01Speaker 4: more I thought about it, I didn't even say this
- 8:02Speaker 4: last week, but the more I thought about it.
- 8:04Speaker 2: All they preached into him last year was.
- 8:06Speaker 4: Don't turn it over, don't turn it over, don't turn
- 8:08Speaker 4: it over, don't turn it over. Well on he turned
- 8:11Speaker 4: it over one time in those four losses, so mission accomplished.
- 8:15Speaker 4: But he wasn't playing quarterback. He's playing robotic football.
- 8:18Speaker 3: I think he's playing it to he's safe.
- 8:20Speaker 5: Yes, that's exactly what it was.
- 8:22Speaker 2: Pete. I might take a little I might take a
- 8:24Speaker 2: little bit different position on this. I'm not saying you're wrong.
- 8:27Speaker 2: And because I didn't, I mean you, I didn't study
- 8:30Speaker 2: and compare the footwork and everything week to week. So
- 8:32Speaker 2: and Pete, I trust Pete's you know eyes, and he
- 8:35Speaker 2: does his work watching film. I think the reason one
- 8:39Speaker 2: of the reasons. I think also the coaching staff handled
- 8:42Speaker 2: it the right way in game planning this week. If
- 8:44Speaker 2: you go watch the first quarter, every throw was a
- 8:49Speaker 2: checkdown or a quick stick route underneath. And I think
- 8:53Speaker 2: it goes back to what we talked about last week.
- 8:56Speaker 2: On the show, the three of us about almost like
- 8:59Speaker 2: a a three point shooter who can't hit the broadside
- 9:01Speaker 2: of a barn. Hey, let's get some layups. Let's see
- 9:04Speaker 2: the ball go through the net. And I think what
- 9:06Speaker 2: they were saying, I think they simplified it. And basically
- 9:08Speaker 2: I don't know this for sure, but watching the tape
- 9:11Speaker 2: is like, if the first guy's not there, check it down,
- 9:14Speaker 2: first guy, check it out, just like, let's get completions
- 9:17Speaker 2: and then give those backs and tight ends and the
- 9:20Speaker 2: receivers a ton of credit because what they did is
- 9:23Speaker 2: had some really nice run after the catches where they
- 9:25Speaker 2: broke tackles and turned three to four yard games into
- 9:30Speaker 2: seven and eighths.
- 9:31Speaker 4: And I think Tony, even those throws to the sideline
- 9:36Speaker 4: came out differently.
- 9:37Speaker 2: I'm not I'm not disagree with you, but I'm saying
- 9:40Speaker 2: I like what they did. They didn't come out saying
- 9:43Speaker 2: we're gonna just open it up, take shots and go
- 9:45Speaker 2: for like we're gonna give him some easy throws. And
- 9:49Speaker 2: then as you watch the game progress, now all of
- 9:53Speaker 2: a sudden you start getting those shots, and all of
- 9:55Speaker 2: a sudden, he's comfortable and he's got his confidence and
- 9:58Speaker 2: he's seeing it and he's feeling it, and he's being
- 10:00Speaker 2: smart with the football. I mean outside the one which
- 10:03Speaker 2: I just think he was convinced Brian Thomas uh Thomas
- 10:08Speaker 2: Junior was going to just win no matter what if
- 10:11Speaker 2: there were three guys. It was a terrible decision. He
- 10:14Speaker 2: had Kirk like, listen, that's gonna happen.
- 10:19Speaker 4: Yeah, but there should have been a penalty for the
- 10:21Speaker 4: linebacker got his hands on Kirk, you know, knocked him
- 10:24Speaker 4: off his route. But once Kirk got up, he should
- 10:29Speaker 4: have should have went here.
- 10:30Speaker 2: On that one.
- 10:31Speaker 4: He predetermined where he was going with the football. That
- 10:33Speaker 4: was a prestat predetermined and he does that. Sometimes you
- 10:36Speaker 4: can't do that.
- 10:37Speaker 2: Every quarterback that does that. Sometimes every quarterback wants to
- 10:42Speaker 2: take a shot. They got their guy running the route
- 10:44Speaker 2: they like, and they just think it's gonna be there
- 10:47Speaker 2: and they make their mind up. That happens.
- 10:50Speaker 4: Unfortunately, when he threw that ball, we were watching on
- 10:53Speaker 4: TV and I said, and I couldn't see it on
- 10:55Speaker 4: on the thing, but I said, I guarantee you as
- 10:58Speaker 4: somebody underneath wide open, because usually when there's three guys around,
- 11:01Speaker 4: somebody on those places open. And a minute and then
- 11:03Speaker 4: when I want to watch the tape today. So well,
- 11:04Speaker 4: there's Cook Kirk in the middle of the field, but
- 11:07Speaker 4: there should have been a penalty. Yeah, and they didn't
- 11:10Speaker 4: call that, you know, Tony. The one thing I give
- 11:13Speaker 4: them credit for. They rather slot fade to the big
- 11:17Speaker 4: fella for the long get Yeah, huh, that was different.
- 11:22Speaker 2: Let me tell you one thing. You better not sit
- 11:25Speaker 2: even for a half a second. I'm Brian Thomas Jr.
- 11:29Speaker 2: Because that kid and the funny thing watching it from
- 11:33Speaker 2: the booth. As soon as he caught it, I'm like,
- 11:35Speaker 2: done gone. There's nobody on that field catching Brian Thomas Jr.
- 11:41Speaker 2: It's just not gonna happen.
- 11:42Speaker 3: And the still in air trying to die.
- 11:45Speaker 2: It was awesome. I loved it.
- 11:47Speaker 5: They cut that kid today. The Colts, by the way,
- 11:49Speaker 5: did that.
- 11:50Speaker 2: Yeah, well he probably should because I know the coverage
- 11:53Speaker 2: that because being with Gus, I know exactly what coverage
- 11:56Speaker 2: that was. And he's not supposed to sit. He's supposed
- 11:59Speaker 2: to be over the That's what Brian said.
- 12:00Speaker 3: He's like, he looked and he's like, oh, did Trevor
- 12:02Speaker 3: already throw it? Like why is he doing that? He's like,
- 12:03Speaker 3: oh no, and he's.
- 12:05Speaker 2: Not supposed to sit. He's supposed to be over the
- 12:06Speaker 2: top and in that coverage and TV give Trevor corn. Yeah,
- 12:11Speaker 2: the corner is the outside corner. It's a combo and
- 12:14Speaker 2: if if number two goes vertical, that outside corner has
- 12:18Speaker 2: got to get over to be over the top. And
- 12:20Speaker 2: he sat and you just can't do that.
- 12:22Speaker 5: I don't know what he was. He was sitting on
- 12:23Speaker 5: the shorter route with.
- 12:24Speaker 2: Yeah, but the underneath, the other core, the inside corner
- 12:27Speaker 2: is supposed to is the flat player. It's it's it's
- 12:30Speaker 2: it's a combination cover too. They it's they change it up,
- 12:35Speaker 2: and that corner is supposed to trying to trap the offense.
- 12:40Speaker 2: That corner is supposed to sit in the flat and
- 12:42Speaker 2: he has underneath route which they're happy to let you throw.
- 12:46Speaker 2: Go throw that four or five yard pass. That's fine.
- 12:49Speaker 2: That outside corner is supposed to be over the top.
- 12:51Speaker 3: Right, and that's the play that will hurt you.
- 12:53Speaker 2: And so you're trying to track. It's what it is.
- 12:56Speaker 5: It's a variation of cover too. You just switch it up.
- 12:59Speaker 2: That's exactly right, exactly right, and so but listen, offensively,
- 13:04Speaker 2: Trevor was great. Tank Bigsby had a day, not just
- 13:09Speaker 2: a day. He had a day that he has played
- 13:12Speaker 2: well all year. He played great in the preseason, he
- 13:16Speaker 2: had a great camp. And I got a lot of
- 13:19Speaker 2: heat at the beginning of the year when I said
- 13:21Speaker 2: that I thought Travis Bigsby, I mean Tank Bigsby was
- 13:26Speaker 2: the best pure running back, and everyone thought I was
- 13:28Speaker 2: taking a shot at Travis. I think Travis is a
- 13:30Speaker 2: I love Travis on our team, and Travis can do
- 13:33Speaker 2: so much in the passing game, and he gets in
- 13:35Speaker 2: space and he's explosive. But as a pure running back
- 13:38Speaker 2: between the tackles, Tank has a physicality and the ability
- 13:46Speaker 2: to cut in the hole and be patient that I
- 13:50Speaker 2: just think is unique, and I would be giving him
- 13:55Speaker 2: the ball more. Now. He got lucky on the first Touchdow.
- 14:00Speaker 3: He got pushed in.
- 14:01Speaker 2: No, the ball comes loose before he comes in, and
- 14:05Speaker 2: that ball bounced right back to him, And that could easily,
- 14:08Speaker 2: as it was sitting on the turf, been picked up
- 14:11Speaker 2: by anyone else. Now it would have been reviewed because
- 14:13Speaker 2: it's really close whether he crossed or not. But I
- 14:15Speaker 2: watched the replay and that that ball's moving and he's
- 14:20Speaker 2: trying to secure it before he crosses. Now, what they
- 14:23Speaker 2: would have called. Who knows, but I think the only
- 14:26Speaker 2: thing he fell on it though, so it didn't matter.
- 14:29Speaker 2: My point is, Pete, that thing was sitting in the
- 14:31Speaker 2: end zone by itself for a little bit, and if
- 14:33Speaker 2: the Colts would have fallen on it, it would have
- 14:35Speaker 2: been a disaster. I'm just saying, let me say something
- 14:37Speaker 2: about him, real peop.
- 14:38Speaker 4: Okay, somebody put on Twitter he reminded me of somebody.
- 14:42Speaker 2: Stop. He does not. He does not remind him of
- 14:48Speaker 2: him unless he's unless he's two thirty and runs four
- 14:51Speaker 2: two nine and can he gives it and can jump
- 14:54Speaker 2: cut two gaps at one time. Yeah, I don't want to.
- 14:58Speaker 2: I don't want to hear it.
- 15:00Speaker 4: He's compared to a guy who should be in can
- 15:02Speaker 4: and that's not fair to the guy again.
- 15:04Speaker 2: And it's not fair to the kid either. Yo.
- 15:07Speaker 4: There's a couple of runs that I will be a
- 15:09Speaker 4: little technically critical on for him, and you'll you know
- 15:13Speaker 4: what's one I'm talking about where he should have just
- 15:15Speaker 4: kept going straight and try to pop it to the side.
- 15:19Speaker 4: Then and then there was a run late in the
- 15:21Speaker 4: game where if he just hits it right up in
- 15:25Speaker 4: the rights of the guard instead of pop it to
- 15:28Speaker 4: the outside, he gets about four or five yards instead
- 15:30Speaker 4: of none.
- 15:31Speaker 2: But here's the thing. But here's the thing with that,
- 15:33Speaker 2: he's a young backstill. This is really, this is really
- 15:36Speaker 2: his first opportunity to see it. And I remember because
- 15:41Speaker 2: I was on the team when he was a rookie.
- 15:43Speaker 2: The greatest running back in the history of this franchise,
- 15:45Speaker 2: and I agree with Pete should be in the Hall
- 15:47Speaker 2: of Fame, Fred Taylor. And there were times when Fred
- 15:51Speaker 2: would try to do too much because he had the
- 15:53Speaker 2: ability to do anything he wanted.
- 15:55Speaker 3: Let me try this out.
- 15:56Speaker 2: And if you watched him progress as he matured as
- 15:59Speaker 2: running back, there was nobody better than finding the hole
- 16:03Speaker 2: and getting north and south and finishing runs. And so
- 16:07Speaker 2: that's just reps and that's just you know, him doing
- 16:14Speaker 2: it more and more. And and this is what I
- 16:16Speaker 2: always want to remind everyone. Rarely, if ever is are
- 16:21Speaker 2: is an individual going to play a perfect football game.
- 16:25Speaker 2: There's always when you watch the tape, something that something
- 16:29Speaker 2: you can get better at. I played a lot of
- 16:31Speaker 2: football from high school to college in the pros. Never
- 16:36Speaker 2: once in my entire life have I played a game
- 16:40Speaker 2: and watched the tape and said that was perfect. There
- 16:45Speaker 2: wasn't one play I could have done better. It just
- 16:47Speaker 2: does not work that way, especially the higher you are.
- 16:52Speaker 2: And I'm not saying you're wrong, Pete, I'm not saying
- 16:54Speaker 2: you're wrong.
- 16:54Speaker 4: The kid, the kids, the kid has improved greatly. Also
- 16:58Speaker 4: looks like he's leaner by the way.
- 17:00Speaker 2: I didn't know he was that fast. Did you know
- 17:02Speaker 2: he was that fast? I think no.
- 17:04Speaker 4: I think he's leaned up from a year ago, and
- 17:06Speaker 4: I think that shows in the way he runs a
- 17:08Speaker 4: little bit.
- 17:09Speaker 2: When he got in the open field against India, I'm like, oh,
- 17:12Speaker 2: he'll get caught. Someone will catch him, one of the
- 17:13Speaker 2: DB's and he just try to pull away from people. Yeah,
- 17:18Speaker 2: what did does anyone know what he ran in the
- 17:20Speaker 2: forty at the combine? I'll find out.
- 17:23Speaker 4: We'll check out which we're gonna go to break real quick,
- 17:27Speaker 4: draft the guy in the first round.
- 17:28Speaker 2: Okay, we're not going to talk about that, all right.

- 17:40Speaker 3: for the Jaguars is Jaguars Happy Art presented by Jet
- 17:42Speaker 3: Home Loans.
- 17:47Speaker 6: Hunkering down and not looking and listening to anything, honestly,
- 17:51Speaker 6: and I'm going to continue to do that even when
- 17:53Speaker 6: you have a good game. I mean, it's that stuff
- 17:55Speaker 6: doesn't matter. You know, you can't listen to the good
- 17:57Speaker 6: or the bad. So I do think stuff that does
- 18:01Speaker 6: get through, And I'm sure there's a lot of questions like.
- 18:03Speaker 7: What's going on with Jacks, what's this? What's that?
- 18:05Speaker 6: After four weeks and good, you know, we'll use that
- 18:08Speaker 6: as a chip on our shoulder and have that us
- 18:10Speaker 6: against the world of mentality and bring us closer together.
- 18:12Speaker 7: And I think that that's what good teams do.
- 18:14Speaker 6: So but I also think you don't want to let
- 18:16Speaker 6: that stuff creep in because it's really about the guys
- 18:19Speaker 6: in that building and the work we put in, and.
- 18:23Speaker 7: You know, it's I'm just proud of the group. It
- 18:24Speaker 7: is a great.
- 18:25Speaker 3: Day, Beck Karen. Jaguars Happy Hour on Victory Monday, brought

- 18:37Speaker 3: That's quarterback Trevor Lawrence says he's not listening to outside noise. Pete,
- 18:41Speaker 3: you felt like he played a really complete game yesterday,
- 18:45Speaker 3: and obviously you felt we talked a little bit about
- 18:48Speaker 3: just his confidence not being there. Do you think he's
- 18:50Speaker 3: back on track?
- 18:52Speaker 2: I do.
- 18:54Speaker 4: I do, And and again, you know, the weapons help,
- 18:59Speaker 4: the protect shouldn't really helped. But I just saw a
- 19:03Speaker 4: different guy out there. The way he threw the ball,
- 19:06Speaker 4: the way the ball came off his hand, the mechanics
- 19:09Speaker 4: were better. When you have a tendency as a long strider,
- 19:13Speaker 4: the ball goes high. That's usually the way it is.
- 19:15Speaker 4: And I think he tightened it up a little bit
- 19:17Speaker 4: and the ball was more accurate. And I think that's
- 19:19Speaker 4: the biggest thing he made it the throw. Look, the
- 19:22Speaker 4: throw he made to Thomas is a seven on seventh
- 19:25Speaker 4: throw that any NFL quarterback should make. But he made
- 19:28Speaker 4: it easy. That was an easy flick of the wrist.
- 19:30Speaker 4: Ball there, boom, God, play over. And I think that's
- 19:34Speaker 4: been the difference with him this year. Nothing has looked easy.
- 19:37Speaker 4: It hasn't looked easy at all, not the entire season.
- 19:41Speaker 4: And so I think this is the first time where
- 19:43Speaker 4: it actually looked like he was playing free, loose, comfortable,
- 19:47Speaker 4: and he made it look easy. And I think that's
- 19:49Speaker 4: the biggest difference between the early games and this one.
- 19:53Speaker 2: I love that he says he doesn't listen to anything.
- 19:55Speaker 2: That'd be my advice to any.
- 19:58Speaker 5: He's also lying I had to do this age.
- 20:03Speaker 2: If I could tell my younger self, especially in this age,
- 20:07Speaker 2: I don't even have social media. I don't even look
- 20:10Speaker 2: at the paper, don't look at anything like just be oblivious.
- 20:15Speaker 2: I would. I would have tried feet every little thing
- 20:20Speaker 2: that I wrote about that team and the law I
- 20:23Speaker 2: didn't say I did a good job with it. That's
- 20:26Speaker 2: my advice to a younger Tony.
- 20:31Speaker 4: And you could have given yourself that advice.
- 20:35Speaker 5: There's no way that would ever.
- 20:37Speaker 2: You don't think You don't think I could pull that
- 20:39Speaker 2: off feet.
- 20:40Speaker 4: Like me saying that I would never listen to what
- 20:43Speaker 4: guy said about me.
- 20:47Speaker 2: One side note, and I don't want to. We don't
- 20:49Speaker 2: have to dive into this too much. I sure appreciate
- 20:52Speaker 2: how Trevor handles himself at the podium. Yes, I just
- 20:56Speaker 2: really do. And I and since he doesn't listen to anything,
- 20:59Speaker 2: he I'll hear this, But I appreciate it. I really
- 21:03Speaker 2: like good, bad and different. He shows up, he answers questions,
- 21:09Speaker 2: he's respectful. It's not easy, especially after what he's been
- 21:14Speaker 2: through the first four weeks. He hasn't played the way
- 21:16Speaker 2: he wanted to. Team hasn't played through the expectations. People questioning.
- 21:20Speaker 2: He hears even if he doesn't read it, he hears the
- 21:22Speaker 2: noise and it just doesn't He doesn't allow it to
- 21:26Speaker 2: impact how he communicates to the fans, which is through
- 21:29Speaker 2: the media. And I appreciate that. And that's not easy,
- 21:33Speaker 2: and all joking aside. Pete's probably right, there's no chance
- 21:36Speaker 2: in it. You know what, I would not read stuff
- 21:39Speaker 2: and I got And Pete will tell you I got
- 21:41Speaker 2: crusty with the media at times when it was going bad. No,
- 21:45Speaker 2: it's shocking. I know, kay shocks you. And sometimes that's fine.
- 21:49Speaker 2: I'm not saying it's wrong to get crusty with the
- 21:51Speaker 2: media sometimes, but I just like, as the quarterback, it's
- 21:53Speaker 2: hard because everything's on you. It was much easier as
- 21:56Speaker 2: an offensive lineman than the quarterback. So I appreciate that.
- 22:00Speaker 2: The second thing I would say is, and Pete, I've
- 22:05Speaker 2: always been I've been a believer that Trevor is gonna
- 22:08Speaker 2: win super bowls. Here at ozen four. I believe that.
- 22:12Speaker 2: I mean, he's our guy, and I hope Pete is
- 22:16Speaker 2: right that this was a turning point. He's gonna be
- 22:20Speaker 2: tested next week against the Bears. That is a really
- 22:24Speaker 2: good defense and Eba Fluis is a very good defensive
- 22:28Speaker 2: coordinator and that's a good front seven. That line's gonna
- 22:34Speaker 2: be tested, and I think they're up to it, and
- 22:38Speaker 2: Trevor's gonna be tested, and so this is gonna be
- 22:40Speaker 2: a good next step. I'm glad we had this success
- 22:44Speaker 2: we did, so there's confidence going into that game because
- 22:48Speaker 2: this is gonna this is gonna look ugly at times,
- 22:51Speaker 2: and that's okay. NFL games are ugly at times because
- 22:53Speaker 2: when you play really good teams with really good players,
- 22:57Speaker 2: it's not always perfect. And this is where and this
- 23:00Speaker 2: is why I go back to for the offensive line,
- 23:02Speaker 2: where finishing is so important, because if you have that
- 23:05Speaker 2: finishing attitude, and not just offense line, but the whole team,
- 23:10Speaker 2: sometimes sometimes ugly turns into points and turns into victories.
- 23:15Speaker 2: It doesn't have to be perfect all the time, but
- 23:17Speaker 2: just that physicality and that finish in that attitude. Sometimes
- 23:21Speaker 2: we'll just produce the success you need. And I especially offense,
- 23:25Speaker 2: our offense against this defense coming up. And we're not
- 23:27Speaker 2: going to dive too much into the Bears, cause we
- 23:28Speaker 2: have plenty And I want to talk about this defense.
- 23:30Speaker 2: Our defense. That's a good defensive side of the football,
- 23:35Speaker 2: and it's and it's an ascending offense. If you look
- 23:38Speaker 2: at the last two weeks, what they've done. Now you
- 23:40Speaker 2: can question the opponents and everything else.
- 23:42Speaker 5: Yeah, the opponents have been very good.
- 23:44Speaker 2: I agree with that people, But people can say the
- 23:45Speaker 2: same thing about what we just did against the Colts.
- 23:48Speaker 4: That's true, no difference, that's true, but they're not the
- 23:51Speaker 4: Colts on as bad as the Caroline Panthers.
- 23:53Speaker 2: Though on defense you could argue right now with the injuries,
- 23:55Speaker 2: it might not be much of a difference. Best player. Yeah,
- 24:01Speaker 2: I look, I'm not, I'm not. I'm just saying.
- 24:04Speaker 4: Before we get to the Bears, I want to say
- 24:06Speaker 4: something about Trevor real quick, and you touched on something
- 24:08Speaker 4: I think is the guy handles himself like a pro
- 24:11Speaker 4: when he comes to the podium, in large part because
- 24:14Speaker 4: he was forced to as a as a rookie. Remember,
- 24:17Speaker 4: he used the face of the franchise.
- 24:19Speaker 2: We had a head coach. He couldn't get out of
- 24:20Speaker 2: his own wife.
- 24:21Speaker 4: So the head coach, the head coach wouldn't wouldn't answer
- 24:23Speaker 4: the question. So he put the quarterback up there every
- 24:26Speaker 4: single week. And so I wanted to say something about that.
- 24:29Speaker 4: But here's the number two part of that, Tony. Pretty soon,
- 24:32Speaker 4: that's all you're gonna get from these players.
- 24:34Speaker 2: Well, I know they're changing the locker room rules, which
- 24:36Speaker 2: I read that article ridiculous. I read that article and
- 24:39Speaker 2: I said, Pete Prisco right now is cursing here, Pa
- 24:43Speaker 2: just cursing him? It makes no sense to me. Well,
- 24:46Speaker 2: I don't want to dive into piece.
- 24:50Speaker 4: You're saying it's sad to the players because you might
- 24:52Speaker 4: not get to know these guys anymore the way you
- 24:55Speaker 4: used to be able to get to know guys, and
- 24:57Speaker 4: I think that hurts them to the fans, and I
- 24:59Speaker 4: think it we're always a conduit to the fans.
- 25:01Speaker 2: I just show what we're conduit to the fans. Pe'te.
- 25:04Speaker 2: I agree with you, You know I do, because I thought
- 25:07Speaker 2: the relationship with the media number when I enjoyed the
- 25:09Speaker 2: back and forth. We had great beat writers like Pete
- 25:12Speaker 2: and John Osher and you know calmnists like Mike Bianchi
- 25:16Speaker 2: and Fornt. I mean it was we had a good time.
- 25:18Speaker 3: Oh you just didn't want to say. For those that
- 25:20Speaker 3: don't know what you're talking about.
- 25:21Speaker 4: NFL.
- 25:21Speaker 3: Yeah, the NFLDH I put out a notice that they
- 25:24Speaker 3: don't want the media in the locker room during the week.
- 25:26Speaker 3: It doesn't apply to postgames, so it's just during the
- 25:28Speaker 3: week hang out. That's how you kind of talk to players,
- 25:31Speaker 3: build that relationship.
- 25:33Speaker 2: Everything from the podium.
- 25:34Speaker 3: Basically, they want everything from the podium. I think it
- 25:35Speaker 3: was like that in twenty twenty, so they kind of
- 25:37Speaker 3: want to go back to that. And so basically you
- 25:39Speaker 3: can go in, but you have to ask a player,
- 25:40Speaker 3: and if they want to go outside to talk to you,
- 25:42Speaker 3: that's where they will talk to you instead of in
- 25:43Speaker 3: the locker room.
- 25:44Speaker 2: And I think with the PA, to take the PA side,
- 25:48Speaker 2: they're saying the locker room should be for players only,
- 25:51Speaker 2: which I get. The second thing is I think they
- 25:54Speaker 2: look at social media and they feel like that is
- 25:58Speaker 2: becoming a major condo to the fans.
- 26:01Speaker 3: And they can communicate themselves and they.
- 26:02Speaker 2: Can communicate what they want to communicate to the fans.
- 26:04Speaker 2: Now that's all being true, I still think you lose
- 26:07Speaker 2: something because you get information, you get a perspective that's
- 26:11Speaker 2: different from the media, and especially those local beat writers.
- 26:16Speaker 2: I really always appreciated what I mean back when I played.
- 26:19Speaker 2: I mean those guys, I mean Pete, they worked like dogs.
- 26:22Speaker 2: I mean they were and sometimes I wanted to kick
- 26:25Speaker 2: them and.
- 26:27Speaker 5: Some guys actually trying and some guys did.
- 26:29Speaker 2: I did not, but you did not. But I but
- 26:32Speaker 2: I appreciated the back and forth with the media back
- 26:35Speaker 2: then and ended up becoming pretty good friends with a
- 26:38Speaker 2: lot of them. The Pete's one of my good friends.
- 26:39Speaker 4: So well, here's Tony, here's my problem with it.
- 26:42Speaker 2: Okay, and I'm I know we're gooding off track here,
- 26:44Speaker 2: but I.
- 26:45Speaker 4: Just think it needs to be said because I think
- 26:46Speaker 4: it's it's not great for the fans.
- 26:48Speaker 2: Okay. Social media is there.
- 26:50Speaker 4: Guys can send out their whole message, right, There's no
- 26:52Speaker 4: doubt about it.
- 26:53Speaker 5: One of the things that I always prided myself on.
- 26:55Speaker 4: And you will test to this because you know, if
- 26:58Speaker 4: I wrote something that was contra versil, I showed up
- 27:01Speaker 4: the next day and I took my heat, and I
- 27:05Speaker 4: didn't mind taking the heat. Now, we had some guys
- 27:08Speaker 4: Mike Bianki who always wrote something and said I'm.
- 27:10Speaker 5: Not going there on Monday going.
- 27:13Speaker 2: He would disappear, Yeah, I go, you're going.
- 27:16Speaker 4: And I tried to talk him into going and he
- 27:17Speaker 4: wouldn't go. And I think that's a terrible thing. But
- 27:20Speaker 4: that's what's gonna happen. That's where they're headed. If I
- 27:24Speaker 4: were covering the Jaguars and there's no locker room access
- 27:27Speaker 4: and the only way I can get to players I
- 27:29Speaker 4: request him and he comes outside and talks to me.
- 27:32Speaker 5: Well, what about when I write something.
- 27:34Speaker 4: Critical of the team or the organization or whatever I got,
- 27:38Speaker 4: I can't go in the locker room and face my music.
- 27:40Speaker 2: I'm going to accountability.
- 27:42Speaker 4: Yeah, no accountability, right, And so I think that's part
- 27:46Speaker 4: of the problem.
- 27:46Speaker 2: Yeah, that's fair. That's a great perspective. Bet. I didn't
- 27:48Speaker 2: think of that, but I think you're right. Let's come back.
- 27:50Speaker 2: When we come back, I let's let's talk about the defense.
- 27:53Speaker 2: Because as big of a story that the offense was
- 27:58Speaker 2: that they've showed up and they executed and they played well,
- 28:01Speaker 2: and they were explosive and put points on the board
- 28:03Speaker 2: at a high rate, it was a defense that almost
- 28:09Speaker 2: felt like it forgot how to play the last quarter.
- 28:12Speaker 2: I mean, gave up ten points in three quarters, seven
- 28:15Speaker 2: in the first drive, and then locked it down and
- 28:18Speaker 2: then gave up twenty.
- 28:19Speaker 5: That was a fourth down conversion for the touchdown, that's.
- 28:22Speaker 2: Right, and then gave up twenty four in the fourth. Yes,
- 28:26Speaker 2: that's a problem there, that's a problem.
- 28:29Speaker 3: Let's to go over all right. Sign up your furry

- 28:56Speaker 7: It was big.
- 28:58Speaker 8: It's good to see him, you know, take this step forward.
- 29:01Speaker 8: He and the d line have been really close to
- 29:04Speaker 8: get into the quarterbacks here in these first you know,
- 29:07Speaker 8: month of the season, and I'm proud of those guys
- 29:10Speaker 8: for the way they've stuck together and.
- 29:11Speaker 3: Continue to work Ted coach Doug Peterson talking about Trayvon
- 29:16Speaker 3: Walker the day he had yesterday. Welcome back to Happy Hour. I'
- 29:18Speaker 3: Kindannie Stevens, Tony Biselli, Pete Prisco with us here today,
- 29:22Speaker 3: and let's talk a little bit about that defense because
- 29:24Speaker 3: they played. Some players played well, but there were issues.
- 29:27Speaker 3: And I say specifically in the fourth quarter, Tony you
- 29:30Speaker 3: mentioned I do the postgame interview. I went out there,
- 29:32Speaker 3: They're up two touchdowns. I was like, Oh, it's fine,
- 29:34Speaker 3: and then all of a sudden the games tied. Oh
- 29:37Speaker 3: never mind.
- 29:37Speaker 2: My wife left early. My wife and daughter and son
- 29:40Speaker 2: all left.
- 29:40Speaker 3: Early, missed all the fun.
- 29:42Speaker 2: And I'm driving home and like, I'm like, where are you?
- 29:45Speaker 2: And I got already home, Like oh, She's like, we
- 29:47Speaker 2: just left at the it was over. Like what do
- 29:50Speaker 2: you mean when'd you leave? She was, we are four teams,
- 29:53Speaker 2: like five minutes left, Like the whole game happened in
- 29:56Speaker 2: the life five minutes. Let's start with Trayvon and then
- 30:01Speaker 2: we'll get into the fourth quarter. Let's start positive the two.
- 30:05Speaker 2: The third sack was just terrible execution by the Cults
- 30:10Speaker 2: of what they're trying to do. They're trying to get
- 30:11Speaker 2: flap outside so you could throw a bomb. And Trayvon
- 30:14Speaker 2: did the smart thing. He just ran inside and know
- 30:16Speaker 2: one touched, Yeah, so take that. Yeah that's ended again.
- 30:20Speaker 2: He picked off, but he had another one. He had
- 30:23Speaker 2: some really nice rushes and and I think part of
- 30:29Speaker 2: it is like Trayvon is who Trayvon is. Trayvon is
- 30:31Speaker 2: not going to be get on your edge, swat, spin,
- 30:36Speaker 2: swat the hands, spin whatever. He is going to be
- 30:40Speaker 2: a speed and then power you impress you to the
- 30:43Speaker 2: quarterback and come off and get on an edge. And
- 30:47Speaker 2: I think what he did to that to Braden Smith,
- 30:49Speaker 2: the right tackle, who's a good player. I mean he
- 30:52Speaker 2: hammered with him with power early and that and and
- 30:55Speaker 2: Trayvon is a strong guy and got Braiden worried about
- 30:58Speaker 2: the power and started to lean where now he could
- 31:01Speaker 2: go to work. And I thought the biggest play of
- 31:05Speaker 2: the game looking back was the sack fumble at the
- 31:08Speaker 2: end of the first half. Huge. I thought that was
- 31:10Speaker 2: the biggest play because the Colts were getting ready to go.
- 31:16Speaker 3: We had just turned it up there, we had just
- 31:18Speaker 3: turned over.
- 31:18Speaker 2: Gabe Davis with the fumble. They have it and get
- 31:22Speaker 2: a first down. Now they're near midfield probably, you know,
- 31:26Speaker 2: plenty of time, they had timeouts, they could have got
- 31:28Speaker 2: a couple more plays and gotten field goal range. And
- 31:32Speaker 2: now all of a sudden, we're down thirteen ten, going
- 31:34Speaker 2: a halftime, and all of a sudden, you look up.
- 31:37Speaker 2: I was on the field because I was getting ready
- 31:38Speaker 2: to do Tom's and Conflin's induction, and you see Tray
- 31:42Speaker 2: Vaughn get the strap the sack strip, Josh picks it up.
- 31:46Speaker 2: Cam Little's walking out to the field. Thirteen ten were up.
- 31:50Speaker 2: It's a six point swing, and the game ended up
- 31:54Speaker 2: being a three point game. But I always got three.
- 31:57Speaker 5: It's a six point swing.
- 31:58Speaker 2: Well, I think they would have my point. I mean
- 32:01Speaker 2: to first down Spete and they you know, but let's okay,
- 32:05Speaker 2: let's just say three points went fine. End up being
- 32:07Speaker 2: a three point game, but more more than the end
- 32:10Speaker 2: result because a lot of things happened the last five minutes,
- 32:12Speaker 2: which we're about to talk about. It was the momentum
- 32:16Speaker 2: and the feeling going into halftime.
- 32:19Speaker 3: Yes, and that's the sha what we had feeling.
- 32:21Speaker 2: It was the opposite and knowing you're getting the ball
- 32:24Speaker 2: back and knowing like, hey, we just made a play
- 32:26Speaker 2: when we had to and defense, and like there was
- 32:29Speaker 2: there was energy in the whole building, and you know
- 32:32Speaker 2: there's energy in that locker room. I just thought that
- 32:34Speaker 2: was such a It was a great rush by Trayvon.
- 32:36Speaker 2: It was good to see him get going because I think,
- 32:38Speaker 2: you know, people have been critical and he hasn't been
- 32:41Speaker 2: getting a lot of pressure and everything else, and they
- 32:43Speaker 2: look at PFF and win rate and all this different stuff.
- 32:47Speaker 2: Bottom line is he played a heck of a game.
- 32:49Speaker 2: He's been very good against the run all year. He's
- 32:51Speaker 2: very physical and if he can get that pass rush
- 32:54Speaker 2: going like he did on Sunday, it's gonna be a
- 32:57Speaker 2: It's gonna be huge because now you have both sides collapsing.
- 32:59Speaker 2: And if you watched Flacco for a lot of that game,
- 33:02Speaker 2: after the first drive, the pocket was getting squeezed by
- 33:05Speaker 2: bullsa by both Josh and Trayvon, which was nice to see.
- 33:09Speaker 5: Yeah, if they only had a little pressure into the middle.
- 33:11Speaker 2: They that's still a struggle the internal pressure.
- 33:16Speaker 4: Yeah, look, Trayvon Walkers. Look, the problem is he's being
- 33:21Speaker 4: compared to a Hutchinson.
- 33:22Speaker 5: That's the problem.
- 33:23Speaker 4: Who's because he's a good football player. Is a good
- 33:26Speaker 4: football player, and if you look at his sack numbers.
- 33:28Speaker 4: His sack numbers are impressive, and that was a good performance.
- 33:31Speaker 4: I mean on the on the the one sack that
- 33:34Speaker 4: was was did heinds Allen get credited with the one sack?
- 33:36Speaker 2: I think he did.
- 33:37Speaker 3: Yeah, But well, what.
- 33:39Speaker 2: Happened there is Trayvon wins. Trayvon is inside is actually
- 33:43Speaker 2: getting pushed down by Braden Smith, so he wouldn't have
- 33:45Speaker 2: gotten the sack, but he made Flacco move enough, and
- 33:50Speaker 2: Josh had a really nice power rush on the other side,
- 33:53Speaker 2: and as soon as Flacco moved a foot to get
- 33:57Speaker 2: out of the way of Trayvon, there's Josh making the sack.
- 33:59Speaker 2: So really good complimentary football by both guys.
- 34:02Speaker 4: Yeah, but that's why he gets compared to Hutchinson.
- 34:05Speaker 5: That's the biggest part of the problem.
- 34:07Speaker 2: Well, but that's the way it's going to be, Pete,
- 34:09Speaker 2: because this organization had an opportunity to pick Traymon Walker
- 34:12Speaker 2: or Aiden Hudchson as the first overall pick, and Aiden
- 34:15Speaker 2: Hutchson going into last week at least or this week. Yeah,
- 34:19Speaker 2: probably still because they had to buy I believe had
- 34:21Speaker 2: the highest win percentage. It does, and he has the
- 34:24Speaker 2: most pressures in the league. The most pressure's highest win
- 34:26Speaker 2: percentage in like six and a half sas after four games,
- 34:30Speaker 2: and they didn't play this week. They didn't play this week, right,
- 34:32Speaker 2: And so that is what it is. And my message
- 34:36Speaker 2: because listen, I got friends and on text messages and boy,
- 34:38Speaker 2: they'd like to wear out that point a lot. My
- 34:42Speaker 2: point is like, Okay, that's the past.
- 34:46Speaker 3: That will never change.
- 34:46Speaker 2: It's never changing. So Trayvon Walker is our defensive end.
- 34:49Speaker 2: And let me tell you what I know about Trayvon Walker.
- 34:52Speaker 2: He's a supreme athlete who's really physical and disruptive every
- 34:57Speaker 2: game I've watched him in the run. He is a
- 35:01Speaker 2: guy who can power rush you and make it very
- 35:04Speaker 2: uncomfortable for offensive tackles and push the pocket. Would I
- 35:08Speaker 2: like him to take his rush game up a level
- 35:11Speaker 2: to have more consistent wins and more pressure. Absolutely, But
- 35:16Speaker 2: right now where he's at as a player is really
- 35:19Speaker 2: good on first and second down. Physical, Like, not many
- 35:23Speaker 2: tight ends are gonna block Terry.
- 35:26Speaker 3: Von Walker, not by themselves.
- 35:27Speaker 2: Not by themselves. He beats up offensive tackles a lot
- 35:30Speaker 2: of times in the run game. He just needs to
- 35:33Speaker 2: continue to improve his pass rush to be to be
- 35:37Speaker 2: more consistent. Yeah, but he's like but Tony.
- 35:40Speaker 4: There were flashes of that Sunday where like you said,
- 35:43Speaker 4: he was going smack Dad with his power, and then
- 35:45Speaker 4: he started getting.
- 35:46Speaker 2: Well because he would still power, but then he'd get
- 35:49Speaker 2: on an edge, turn the shoulder, get up field, squeeze
- 35:52Speaker 2: the corner. He had some nice inside moves, but they're
- 35:55Speaker 2: all like he is a power rusher. He's never going
- 35:59Speaker 2: to be Aiden Hutchinson, who does arm slaps and spins
- 36:04Speaker 2: and rips and everything else and then occasionally powers.
- 36:08Speaker 5: Well, they technically have two power rushers.
- 36:10Speaker 2: And Josh Allen's a power rusher. But let me tell
- 36:13Speaker 2: you what, Aiden Hutchinson will never be the run defender
- 36:16Speaker 2: that Trayvon Walker is no and so like, stop comparing
- 36:21Speaker 2: them because they're always going to be compared. It's okay
- 36:26Speaker 2: fans do that. I'm saying when we talk about them,
- 36:30Speaker 2: I think the focus on the development and what he
- 36:33Speaker 2: does and what he brings to this team. And you
- 36:35Speaker 2: saw that firsthand on Sunday. When he is playing and
- 36:39Speaker 2: has a good rush plan, and especially against tackles who
- 36:43Speaker 2: struggle with any type of power, he is going to
- 36:45Speaker 2: be really effective. Now is he going to struggle more?
- 36:48Speaker 2: When you get a big right tackle. Who's good against power.
- 36:51Speaker 5: Yes, we go back to that play real quick.
- 36:56Speaker 4: They took over with what six seconds last five, but
- 37:00Speaker 4: they kicked the field goal right away.
- 37:02Speaker 2: Yeah, and then they ended up because they had to
- 37:04Speaker 2: kick off. Yeah, because Pete, they were at I think
- 37:09Speaker 2: they they were at the twenty five where it ended up.
- 37:11Speaker 2: We'll see right here.
- 37:12Speaker 3: So you shut down, Thank goodness, because I was like,
- 37:14Speaker 3: he's not gonna make it, and if he runs out
- 37:16Speaker 3: this clock then they're not even Yeah, he.
- 37:18Speaker 2: Got to the ten. I don't think I would have
- 37:21Speaker 2: taken a shot at the end zone.
- 37:22Speaker 3: Not enough time.
- 37:23Speaker 5: No, But did they end up kick kicking off?
- 37:25Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you forget. Yes, they kicked off and they
- 37:28Speaker 2: took a knee.
- 37:29Speaker 4: Okay, wait they kicked off. Jacksonville kicked off.
- 37:33Speaker 2: Yeah, they kicked off for the end zone right only
- 37:36Speaker 2: one second somehow ran off okay, okay, but they had
- 37:39Speaker 2: to time out.
- 37:40Speaker 4: So if you were going to kick the field goal,
- 37:41Speaker 4: why didn't you take a knee with three seconds, call
- 37:44Speaker 4: timeout and then kicked You didn't have.
- 37:45Speaker 2: To kick off. Yeah, you could have done that, I think. Yeah.
- 37:49Speaker 4: I mean, I'm a again, I'm a stickler for game
- 37:52Speaker 4: management and you don't why even subject yourself to having
- 37:56Speaker 4: to kick off when you didn't need to. They had
- 37:58Speaker 4: two timeouts, So take the staff, take a knee, kicked
- 38:01Speaker 4: the play on the last, very last.
- 38:03Speaker 5: Play the game of the half.
- 38:04Speaker 4: Because there's no way that snap got away. You could
- 38:06Speaker 4: go get it and call time out and kick it on.
- 38:08Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. No, No, would you have
- 38:10Speaker 2: Would you have taken a shot five seconds like a
- 38:12Speaker 2: quick slap to the end zone enough time as I
- 38:15Speaker 2: would not even I would not have either, No, but I.
- 38:17Speaker 4: Would have taken I would have taken the knee with
- 38:20Speaker 4: three seconds and then kicked it on the final play
- 38:23Speaker 4: so I didn't have to kick off. What let's just
- 38:25Speaker 4: say in that scenario, if he kicked off, it didn't
- 38:27Speaker 4: make it to the end zone and they returned it
- 38:29Speaker 4: for a touchdown.
- 38:30Speaker 2: Have you watched Cam Little? He can kick it in
- 38:32Speaker 2: those He can kick it in the first row if
- 38:34Speaker 2: he wants to.
- 38:35Speaker 4: Why even subject okay, say pulls his hamstring on the
- 38:38Speaker 4: kickoff that, I mean, why even why even let it
- 38:40Speaker 4: become a factor?
- 38:41Speaker 2: Pete? I actually get your point. I just don't care
- 38:44Speaker 2: enough to engage you in that conversation, right, now I'm
- 38:46Speaker 2: not saying you're wrong.
- 38:47Speaker 5: Hey, Kyle, you know what that means. He freezes me
- 38:50Speaker 5: and he doesn't want it.
- 38:52Speaker 2: Okay, we got to come back because we still haven't
- 38:54Speaker 2: gone to the fourth quarter because I thought this game.
- 38:56Speaker 2: I thought this game was over when we had a
- 38:58Speaker 2: two possession of lead and all of a sudden, Joe
- 39:01Speaker 2: Flacco is throwing bombs to whatever fourteen's they pierce, pierce
- 39:06Speaker 2: and just look and run, running, torturing us just like
- 39:09Speaker 2: a complete torch job. This guy didn't have a target
- 39:12Speaker 2: until the last two dry and they is three for
- 39:14Speaker 2: like one fifty at the end. I'm like, what the
- 39:16Speaker 2: heck happened? All right?
- 39:19Speaker 3: Looking for the MVV of the truck game, Better check
- 39:21Speaker 3: out the twenty twenty four Ford F one fifty, Loaded
- 39:23Speaker 3: with impressive capability and game changing tech. You can dominate
- 39:26Speaker 3: work playing everything in between. Test drive an F one
- 39:28Speaker 3: to fifty at your local four dealer. Proud partner of
- 39:30Speaker 3: the Jacksonville Jaguars. Coming up, we will finally talk about
- 39:34Speaker 3: that defensive collapse, what happened, and what they're going to
- 39:37Speaker 3: try to do to fix it. Welcome back into Happy Hour,
- 39:42Speaker 3: presented by Jet Home Loans, I'm kain Nannie Stevens in
- 39:44Speaker 3: for JP Shatdrick today. He already left for the UK.
- 39:47Speaker 3: We'll see him back next week. Tony Bisselli and Pete
- 39:49Speaker 3: Prisco are with me. We've been talking about getting to
- 39:52Speaker 3: talking about this defense, so let's finally get to it.
- 39:55Speaker 3: Jaguars have a fourteen point lead. Thought things were locked
- 39:57Speaker 3: up a couple of minutes left to play in the
- 39:59Speaker 3: fourth and they were far from that. It's cult able
- 40:02Speaker 3: to tie things up relatively quickly. What was going on
- 40:05Speaker 3: with the secondary?
- 40:06Speaker 2: Well, if you go back even one drive before, we
- 40:08Speaker 2: were fortunate to flock over through Mohali.
- 40:10Speaker 3: Cox because he was open on that as well.
- 40:13Speaker 2: Now that was just a good route and maybe a
- 40:16Speaker 2: little push off by him. But you're up fourteen and
- 40:22Speaker 2: the year, I believe it was up fourteen with six
- 40:25Speaker 2: minutes left to go in the game, and at that
- 40:30Speaker 2: point like you can't let anything behind you, like you
- 40:35Speaker 2: just like nothing can get behind you. And it starts
- 40:38Speaker 2: with an acrobatic play by Pierce the one handed and
- 40:43Speaker 2: that okay, fine covers by Monterrey Brown. But then they
- 40:46Speaker 2: come right back, they come right back to him with
- 40:49Speaker 2: the deep show.
- 40:50Speaker 5: Those I don't know what those under underneath guys.
- 40:53Speaker 2: Right here look at this, like, what are we doing?
- 40:55Speaker 2: How do you let get back?
- 40:57Speaker 5: That looks like it was on Cisco.
- 41:00Speaker 2: But I also think if you're Monteric Brown, don't you
- 41:02Speaker 2: have to play over the top Pat? I mean like, yeah,
- 41:07Speaker 2: but you know he's got it.
- 41:09Speaker 5: He let him get He got no hands on him
- 41:10Speaker 5: at the line of scrimmage. That was a problem.
- 41:12Speaker 2: And then I would die like I don't know why
- 41:13Speaker 2: he's not bailing and just saying, if you want to
- 41:16Speaker 2: catch a fifteen yard comeback, be my guest.
- 41:19Speaker 4: But if you go back and look at the overhead
- 41:21Speaker 4: on that, I think if I remember watching that play,
- 41:24Speaker 4: Cisco kind of looks into the middle and hesitates for
- 41:27Speaker 4: a second before he gets over the top on that.
- 41:28Speaker 2: I don't know what it is, but it was bad.
- 41:30Speaker 2: And then and then you have the over route. Yeah
- 41:34Speaker 2: that was then well then we go three and out,
- 41:36Speaker 2: So now's a seven point game, and I'm like, are
- 41:39Speaker 2: you kidding? Here we go and then they get an
- 41:42Speaker 2: over route to piers and like, I don't know what
- 41:47Speaker 2: the backside corner or safety is doing.
- 41:50Speaker 5: Well, he's jumping. You can see him jump.
- 41:52Speaker 2: So I understand that. But if it's covered two, you
- 41:54Speaker 2: don't jump it. You're in the back half. I don't
- 41:56Speaker 2: know what covers you're in or if it's a cover
- 41:58Speaker 2: three and the safety is supposed to be deep because
- 42:00Speaker 2: if you.
- 42:00Speaker 4: Know what it looked like, it looked like watching it
- 42:03Speaker 4: looks like he's a robber.
- 42:04Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. So that means it has to
- 42:06Speaker 2: be three because look right, So he's got to because
- 42:10Speaker 2: the other side is playing three.
- 42:13Speaker 5: Right, it looks like it looks like three with a robber.
- 42:16Speaker 4: And so that's not on Cisco, that's on on the
- 42:19Speaker 4: other split safety or the corner.
- 42:21Speaker 2: Has the other corner the other corner is to carry him.
- 42:23Speaker 2: What's he doing? Yeah, he's got a deep third. I
- 42:27Speaker 2: don't know, but I don't know that was it.
- 42:30Speaker 5: We're making run Can we run that again?
- 42:32Speaker 2: We could with the with the with the arrow on it.
- 42:35Speaker 2: In fairness, were kind of making up what covers is
- 42:37Speaker 2: we think it is?
- 42:38Speaker 5: No, no, you can see it.
- 42:39Speaker 4: It's it is a three because the guys the safeties
- 42:42Speaker 4: looks they open a split safeties and they look like
- 42:44Speaker 4: they drop.
- 42:45Speaker 2: They drop it down. I think it's three, but I
- 42:48Speaker 2: don't know. Maybe maybe it was man. Maybe on this
- 42:51Speaker 2: side Montera Brown is supposed to carry him all the way.
- 42:53Speaker 2: Maybe it's man. I have no idea.
- 42:55Speaker 5: Let's see how he plays it. That is a man.
- 42:58Speaker 2: Well, the other guy's playing man.
- 43:01Speaker 3: So somebody's wrong.
- 43:02Speaker 2: But who is I don't know who's wrong. It's not
- 43:05Speaker 2: it's the way Monterrek Brown play that.
- 43:07Speaker 5: That's not it.
- 43:07Speaker 2: That's it's It looks like three to me.
- 43:10Speaker 4: Yeah, it looks like three, and it looks like the
- 43:13Speaker 4: corner on the other side supposed to get depth and
- 43:16Speaker 4: play that.
- 43:17Speaker 2: But here's my problem. Up fourteen with six minutes left?
- 43:22Speaker 2: Is that am i? Am I doing the math right?
- 43:24Speaker 2: Or is it four forty two? I can't remember the
- 43:26Speaker 2: clock twice, but anyways, I think it was.
- 43:29Speaker 3: I think it was under five.
- 43:30Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it was under five. I think it
- 43:32Speaker 2: was four forty two. Like you like, at that point,
- 43:37Speaker 2: you don't get beat. You know this, nothing gets over
- 43:41Speaker 2: the top. You call a defense and you tell your
- 43:45Speaker 2: guys keep everything in front of us, like make them,
- 43:50Speaker 2: make them take five or six plays to if they're
- 43:53Speaker 2: gonna score, Like make them use clock. And there was
- 43:57Speaker 2: just it was like one shot after another. I'm like,
- 43:59Speaker 2: what the heck is going on?
- 44:01Speaker 4: I mean the look on Ryan Nielsen's face. Put the
- 44:03Speaker 4: camera on him, Oh my god, he looked like he
- 44:05Speaker 4: was shell shocked. It was unbelievable.
- 44:07Speaker 2: He had You should have. I'm glad they didn't put
- 44:10Speaker 2: the camera on me because I was like, what are
- 44:14Speaker 2: we doing?
- 44:15Speaker 5: I guarantee you.
- 44:16Speaker 4: Everybody in that stadium was saying, here they go again,
- 44:19Speaker 4: guarantee it.
- 44:20Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I mean, I'd be lying if I didn't think.
- 44:24Speaker 2: In the back of my head. In the back of
- 44:25Speaker 2: my head, I'm like, what are we doing? We cannot
- 44:27Speaker 2: give this away. We've played too well. Now give the
- 44:31Speaker 2: offense credit because they tied up with two, you know,
- 44:34Speaker 2: two twenty left man Trevor got the ball and said okay,
- 44:39Speaker 2: and there was They didn't blink. They worked right down
- 44:42Speaker 2: the field. They used the clock effectively. They forced Shane.
- 44:45Speaker 5: Stike hit a good throw against the blitz.
- 44:48Speaker 2: They they forced Shane Styke and to start using his timeouts.
- 44:51Speaker 3: Got that big run to get ahead of it too.
- 44:53Speaker 2: It was great.
- 44:54Speaker 5: You know what's amazing though? How long was that field goal?
- 44:56Speaker 2: What was it? Fifty forty nine?
- 44:59Speaker 5: Were forty nine years.
- 45:01Speaker 4: Ago, they would have never just ran it three times
- 45:05Speaker 4: and settled for the forty nine yarder.
- 45:06Speaker 5: But these kickers are unreal nowadays.
- 45:09Speaker 2: That's like, that's like a thirty five yarder. When I
- 45:12Speaker 2: played Pete it is at that point too, it didn't matter.
- 45:16Speaker 2: It was like, there's no doubt. It was like I
- 45:18Speaker 2: watched him walk on the field like he was calm,
- 45:20Speaker 2: he was worried.
- 45:21Speaker 4: He's the best fifteen year old kicker I've ever seen.
- 45:24Speaker 3: Is that he's great.
- 45:26Speaker 2: Wa wa when does he turn fifteen?
- 45:29Speaker 3: I mean it'steen coming up?
- 45:31Speaker 2: He is, and he's a weapon.
- 45:32Speaker 4: I mean held that that was forty nine yards and
- 45:35Speaker 4: it could have been good from sixty oh easy and
- 45:38Speaker 4: yeah and and so that's why you play that differently nowadays, Tony.
- 45:42Speaker 5: Back in the day, you would have never run it
- 45:44Speaker 5: three times and just settled.
- 45:45Speaker 2: I don't think you would have. Just you tried to
- 45:46Speaker 2: get you to have tried to get Hall since I mean,
- 45:48Speaker 2: Hall's made some fifty plus feederals, a lot of them,
- 45:52Speaker 2: but you are still trying to get it inside forty.
- 45:54Speaker 2: I would say, yeah.
- 45:55Speaker 5: Nowadays, it's these guys are amazing.
- 45:57Speaker 4: So it worked out the end, but boy, they made
- 46:01Speaker 4: it interested and the final five minutes.
- 46:03Speaker 2: But defensively, Like I like the two things that I
- 46:06Speaker 2: worry about with our defense because if you look at
- 46:09Speaker 2: the first four games, they didn't give a lot of
- 46:11Speaker 2: very many points. With the time of possession. They couldn't
- 46:13Speaker 2: get off the.
- 46:13Speaker 3: Field getting Yeah, they were ninety yard drives, eighty yard
- 46:16Speaker 3: drives on.
- 46:16Speaker 2: The field all the time, and that combined and then
- 46:21Speaker 2: we saw them just fall apart in the fourth quarter
- 46:23Speaker 2: of this game. But really, and then you combine that
- 46:26Speaker 2: with the slow starts. I mean, every team gets outside
- 46:29Speaker 2: of the Dolphins. The Dolphins didn't do much if I
- 46:32Speaker 2: remember correctly, I don't think they scored the first drive.
- 46:36Speaker 2: Maybe they did, maybe they got a field goal. But anyways,
- 46:38Speaker 2: I know the Browns did, I know the Texans did,
- 46:40Speaker 2: and and the Bills and.
- 46:44Speaker 4: And well they rotated the starters out after one point.
- 46:48Speaker 2: Then here come the Colts and they just marched down
- 46:50Speaker 2: and get seven. Like it's nothing like we got a
- 46:52Speaker 2: fast starter. Get we still have to start faster as
- 46:56Speaker 2: a team.
- 46:56Speaker 5: We need to talk more about the.
- 46:58Speaker 3: Defense and how to get a stuff when you need.
- 46:59Speaker 2: One, and get a stop when you got and you
- 47:02Speaker 2: have to get a stop.
- 47:03Speaker 3: Absolutely all right, victory Monday, we finally got some stuff
- 47:05Speaker 3: to talk about. Coming up in the second hour, we
- 47:07Speaker 3: will go all over the details and highlights and some
- 47:10Speaker 3: of the things they need to work on coming up
- 47:12Speaker 3: on Jaguars Happy Hour perscenta by Jet Homelands.
- 47:19Speaker 9: It's more like sometime when you make a big blade,
- 47:23Speaker 9: your mind go blink and your your your instincts takeover.
- 47:26Speaker 9: So and those opportunities come upind like, you don't know
- 47:29Speaker 9: what's you just your your instincts takeovers. But afterwards, you
- 47:33Speaker 9: know it come back to reality and you get get
- 47:37Speaker 9: down and you see I'm like, dang, gots your scroll
- 47:39Speaker 9: and uh, you go out and give my mom the law.
- 47:44Speaker 3: It felt very dank thiks. We had a day yesterday
- 47:47Speaker 3: two touchdowns, blackedown on that run apparently, but remember to
- 47:50Speaker 3: give the football to his mom, so that's always good.
- 47:52Speaker 3: Welcome back to Jaguars Happy Hour. Second hour brought to
- 47:54Speaker 3: you by mister Chubby's Wings. Before the game, after the game,
- 47:57Speaker 3: and during the game. It is a victorious happy Hour today.
- 48:00Speaker 3: Tony Pselli Pete Prisco with me. I'm kin Nannie Steven's
- 48:03Speaker 3: in for JP Shadwick and we get to talk about
- 48:05Speaker 3: a win for once now. A great day from Prevor Lawrence.
- 48:08Speaker 3: We saw two touchdowns, that one interception, but three hundred
- 48:10Speaker 3: and seventy one passing yards. He did a good job
- 48:12Speaker 3: of hitting those throws. We kind of criticized him for
- 48:15Speaker 3: missing the week before, corrected that Jags defense blowing that lead.
- 48:19Speaker 3: As we just discussed, we're up. The Jags are up
- 48:22Speaker 3: by two touchdowns and then all of a sudden they weren't.
- 48:24Speaker 3: But they were able to get the win thanks to
- 48:26Speaker 3: Cam Little with that huge field goal late a sack
- 48:29Speaker 3: to walk things off. The Jags are now one and four.
- 48:32Speaker 3: The wind doesn't change everything, Tony, but it does make
- 48:34Speaker 3: things a little more palatable when you go back to
- 48:35Speaker 3: look at the tape.
- 48:37Speaker 2: A win changes everything.
- 48:38Speaker 3: Oh it's everything's different.
- 48:39Speaker 2: I apologize everything. Let me tell you what. The food
- 48:42Speaker 2: tastes better, you're better looking, you like your partner better,
- 48:48Speaker 2: your kids are nicer, Like the sky's bluer. Like it's
- 48:52Speaker 2: everything is better, and it solves everything. It's like I
- 48:56Speaker 2: always say, like if you have a great grist, it
- 49:00Speaker 2: really doesn't matter what the meat is because the gravy's
- 49:04Speaker 2: so good, you just cover it up. And a win
- 49:07Speaker 2: and coach Kauflin and I were talking about this at
- 49:10Speaker 2: halftime and we were talking about, gosh, we need a win,
- 49:13Speaker 2: we need to win. And I looked at him and
- 49:16Speaker 2: I said, I said, it's a lot more fun coach
- 49:18Speaker 2: making corrections after a win. And he looked at me smiled,
- 49:22Speaker 2: and he says, you stole that from me. I said, I know,
- 49:24Speaker 2: because it is. It just makes everything better. Now, does
- 49:27Speaker 2: it mean that you're gonna win the next one?
- 49:30Speaker 6: No?
- 49:30Speaker 2: Does it mean that you're like you've solved every problem
- 49:33Speaker 2: you have? Noop, But it makes everything better, and it
- 49:37Speaker 2: makes things a lot more fun. And you should energize
- 49:40Speaker 2: you and you should want to go get better, and
- 49:42Speaker 2: you should want to get back on that practice field.
- 49:44Speaker 2: You should want to watch film, and you should want
- 49:47Speaker 2: to get ready for Chicago, because now you know what
- 49:52Speaker 2: it tastes like and what it feels like. You remember,
- 49:56Speaker 2: it's been a long time. You remember what it feels
- 49:59Speaker 2: like to win, and you want that feeling a lot
- 50:02Speaker 2: more than you want the feeling from the first four weeks.
- 50:04Speaker 2: So to me, winning cures all and now it's what
- 50:09Speaker 2: you do with it that really matters, because its.
- 50:13Speaker 4: Also saves the season. It saves the season. Five you
- 50:16Speaker 4: were dead. Yes, yeah, so it saves the season, it
- 50:20Speaker 4: gives you it, and so from that perspective, you're one
- 50:23Speaker 4: hundred percent correct, Tony.
- 50:24Speaker 5: It gives you life.
- 50:25Speaker 4: And now you get on a plane to go to
- 50:26Speaker 4: London and you have life. If they if they didn't
- 50:29Speaker 4: win that game, they go to London lifeless.
- 50:33Speaker 2: Basically, Yeah, I agree. I thought I think it would
- 50:35Speaker 2: have been a disaster because beats right. You go to
- 50:38Speaker 2: London now, and what your thought process is, it's always
- 50:41Speaker 2: one game. But London's unique because you're leaving for two games,
- 50:46Speaker 2: and so you like, just like naturally, you kind of
- 50:48Speaker 2: combine the two and is if you're thinking about you're like, okay,
- 50:51Speaker 2: we got two games. Got to focus only on Chicago
- 50:53Speaker 2: because it's all matters. But we have a chance to
- 50:57Speaker 2: fly back to Jacksonville in ten days, three and four,
- 51:01Speaker 2: and right in the thick of everything, right in the
- 51:04Speaker 2: middle of it, we're at home, got the packers coming in. Boy,
- 51:10Speaker 2: we can find our way to you know, doing something
- 51:13Speaker 2: with the season after a terrible start. Now, you can't
- 51:15Speaker 2: get too far ahead of yourself because that's the danger.
- 51:19Speaker 2: But London's unique because it's like you're going to play
- 51:22Speaker 2: two games somewhere like in a unique environment. You know,
- 51:28Speaker 2: one at taught them and one at wimbley. But boy,
- 51:32Speaker 2: it feels Pete's exactly right. You get them that playing,
- 51:34Speaker 2: you're like, hey, all right, that's who we are. Because
- 51:38Speaker 2: you can tell yourself and you can tell you can
- 51:41Speaker 2: tell yourself to be confident, you can tell yourself, you
- 51:43Speaker 2: can be good, you can tell your stuff. You can
- 51:45Speaker 2: score points and do this and do that. But til
- 51:48Speaker 2: you go do it, there's always that little voice in
- 51:52Speaker 2: the bag going, eh, man, are we gonna get over
- 51:55Speaker 2: the hump? Why can't we finish? Pete's right? So that
- 52:00Speaker 2: voice starts whispering when things go wrong, Oh here we
- 52:03Speaker 2: go again. It's the worst voice. It's the voice you
- 52:06Speaker 2: have to kill because that because you have no chance
- 52:09Speaker 2: if you allow that voice to dominate. And now all
- 52:12Speaker 2: of a sudden, the voice is like, okay, yeah, that's
- 52:14Speaker 2: who we are. Yep, that's who we are. And as
- 52:16Speaker 2: an athlete, professional athay, you can convince yourself based off
- 52:21Speaker 2: that alone. But you that's what you've been always. You
- 52:24Speaker 2: forget the other for what what games you're talking about?
- 52:26Speaker 2: I don't remember losing? Don't you see what we just did?
- 52:30Speaker 2: And you build on that and get some confidence and
- 52:33Speaker 2: get some juice in the building, get some juice in
- 52:35Speaker 2: the locker room, and go, you know, go do something special.
- 52:39Speaker 4: I know they'll all say play one game at a time.
- 52:41Speaker 4: When play at a time, that whole spiel that every
- 52:43Speaker 4: player gives you when they really look out and see
- 52:45Speaker 4: what the schedule looks like. But if you look at
- 52:48Speaker 4: you talked about it, Tony, if they go and win
- 52:50Speaker 4: two games, they're both winnable games. By the way, it's
- 52:53Speaker 4: not like there's a dominant team they're going to play.
- 52:55Speaker 4: The Bears are pretty good, but they're not a dominant team.
- 52:58Speaker 4: They're not one of the elite of the league.
- 53:00Speaker 2: So you can win the Bears, worry meet people will
- 53:03Speaker 2: keep yeah.
- 53:03Speaker 5: Because of their defense.
- 53:05Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 53:05Speaker 4: So if you win those two games and you come
- 53:07Speaker 4: home and you get the Packers at home. Here, here's
- 53:10Speaker 4: what the Texans play the Patriots this week. I'm just
- 53:12Speaker 4: throwing this out there. This is their schedule in a
- 53:15Speaker 4: through October after next week at Lambeau to play the Packers,
- 53:19Speaker 4: which is much tougher to go to Lambeau than is
- 53:21Speaker 4: to play them at home. I don't care what any
- 53:23Speaker 4: you know that hom Agets, the Colston not very good.
- 53:26Speaker 4: At the Jets on a on a Sunday night.
- 53:29Speaker 2: They don't look right now, keep going, but they're pretty
- 53:32Speaker 2: good on defense. Yeah, okay, then the Lions they're.
- 53:36Speaker 5: At home, then the Cowboys on the road on a
- 53:39Speaker 5: Monday night.
- 53:40Speaker 2: Tough ways.
- 53:41Speaker 5: So yeah, so their schedule gets a lot tougher.
- 53:45Speaker 3: Their tough as well, Ravens Chief.
- 53:48Speaker 4: So if you yeah, if they can, if they can
- 53:51Speaker 4: figure it out Jacksonville in the next two weeks and
- 53:53Speaker 4: and you can win those two games, you're in it.
- 53:57Speaker 2: You'll be in it.
- 53:59Speaker 4: But again, if they played like they did early in
- 54:04Speaker 4: that game, they can win both those games. If they
- 54:06Speaker 4: play like they did in the fourth quarter, and they're
- 54:08Speaker 4: not gonna win either one of those.
- 54:09Speaker 2: Well, Patriots are very good. But it's not like our
- 54:16Speaker 2: schedule is easy. When we get back for London. If
- 54:18Speaker 2: we're looking ahead, you got the Packers at home, Eagles
- 54:22Speaker 2: on the road, which I think if we unless.
- 54:26Speaker 5: We don't get no, if if.
- 54:28Speaker 2: You win the next two, it might not right. Eagles
- 54:36Speaker 2: Vikings only undefeated team at home. Tough, they're good up
- 54:41Speaker 2: at the Lions, one of the best teams in the NFL.
- 54:44Speaker 3: Then the late by, right, and then we have a bye.
- 54:47Speaker 2: But then we have the Texans coming here.
- 54:50Speaker 5: Yeah, it's not an easy schedule.
- 54:51Speaker 2: And then it lightens up after that. I mean, you
- 54:53Speaker 2: close out with the Jets, the Raiders who aren't very good,
- 54:56Speaker 2: the Titans twice, and the Colts again. But and then
- 55:00Speaker 2: well they close out they have the Chiefs and the
- 55:02Speaker 2: Ravens later, and I agree with that. That's why. But
- 55:04Speaker 2: I'm telling you the next seven games, well it really starts.
- 55:11Speaker 2: The next two in London are critical. You gotta go
- 55:13Speaker 2: win those two because if you come back both, If
- 55:16Speaker 2: you come back two and five, you're done.
- 55:19Speaker 3: It's not the same.
- 55:20Speaker 2: Well you're you're two and five, you're gonna get flexed.
- 55:23Speaker 2: That's a downer. Then you got Green Bay come in,
- 55:27Speaker 2: you go. You gotta got the Vikings, you gotta go
- 55:30Speaker 2: to Detroit, you gotta go to Philly. I mean, it
- 55:34Speaker 2: gets hard, but I think these are the two most important.
- 55:38Speaker 2: Every game is important. Peach right, players coaches, we say
- 55:41Speaker 2: one at a time, blah blah blah, which is right,
- 55:43Speaker 2: that's how you have to approach it. But we're not
- 55:46Speaker 2: players and we're not coaches, so we can step back
- 55:49Speaker 2: and look at this, it's mandatory they come back to
- 55:53Speaker 2: and oh winning both games in London. If you want
- 55:56Speaker 2: to go do something this year, you got you have
- 56:00Speaker 2: to come back three and.
- 56:02Speaker 4: Four if they don't. If they don't, then we start
- 56:05Speaker 4: talking draft.
- 56:06Speaker 3: Your favorite.
- 56:07Speaker 2: No, we've agreed on this show we did not talk
- 56:11Speaker 2: draft until we are eliminated from the playoffs.
- 56:16Speaker 4: You almost were starting a week ago, we were talking
- 56:18Speaker 4: about the first overall pick.
- 56:20Speaker 3: Well a cow of times the tables have turned.
- 56:22Speaker 2: We were not talking about the first overall pick.
- 56:25Speaker 5: Have you. We weren't on ere but they were.
- 56:28Speaker 4: If the draft were held, they would have had the
- 56:30Speaker 4: first overall pick.
- 56:31Speaker 2: I wasn't talking about it, and we will not talk
- 56:33Speaker 2: about it on this show. I have in my contracts,
- 56:36Speaker 2: in my contract the ability to state what we will
- 56:40Speaker 2: not talk about on the show. And we will not
- 56:42Speaker 2: talk about the draft or free agency or any changes
- 56:46Speaker 2: or anything else until we are eliminated from the playoffs.
- 56:50Speaker 2: All right, which I'm hoping will not be talked. Last
- 56:53Speaker 2: week you did, I didn't correct.
- 56:56Speaker 3: All right, let's talk a little bit about those on games.
- 56:58Speaker 3: You guys mentioned Chicago, that's the first one up. What
- 57:00Speaker 3: scares you the most about the defense? How can the
- 57:03Speaker 3: Jaguars go about attacking that.
- 57:05Speaker 2: They got a good front four, they got good path
- 57:08Speaker 2: They put the pressure of the quarterback.
- 57:11Speaker 5: Well, one really good pressure the quarterback guy in sweat.
- 57:14Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I mean, he's a he's
- 57:16Speaker 2: a good player. They are very disciplined. Ever Fuss is
- 57:20Speaker 2: a very good coordinator. They do a good job in
- 57:22Speaker 2: the back half. I haven't watched tape yet, but ever
- 57:24Speaker 2: Fos is known, is known kind of the cover two
- 57:26Speaker 2: two high safety guy and a lot of different he
- 57:29Speaker 2: can do variations off that. It's a sound unit. They
- 57:33Speaker 2: play fast, they play hard. They got talented players. They
- 57:37Speaker 2: have one really good player in sweat.
- 57:41Speaker 5: Well too, because Jalen Johnson's a really good.
- 57:43Speaker 2: Corner I think, I mean, I'm saying in the front, sorry,
- 57:45Speaker 2: and they got a really good corner. They're they're talented,
- 57:50Speaker 2: well coached.
- 57:51Speaker 4: The defense, their corners with Johnson, Stevenson and Gordon when
- 57:58Speaker 4: they're playing at their best, that's as good a trio
- 58:00Speaker 4: as there is in a league, as good as there is, so,
- 58:04Speaker 4: you know, and Stevenson probably hasn't played as well as
- 58:06Speaker 4: I thought he would play this year. Johnson's the real
- 58:08Speaker 4: deal and Gordon's a heck of a nickel corner.
- 58:10Speaker 5: So that group is talented. That group is really talented.
- 58:14Speaker 4: So if you get pass rushed with coverage, Tony, you
- 58:17Speaker 4: know what that means.
- 58:18Speaker 5: That's a problem.
- 58:19Speaker 2: I mean, so the point totals they've given up this year,
- 58:25Speaker 2: and for a big part of this with a not
- 58:27Speaker 2: very good offense, an offense that could not get out
- 58:32Speaker 2: of its own way early in one of the games.
- 58:35Speaker 2: They didn't score an offensive touchdown.
- 58:36Speaker 3: On one, yeah, the first one.
- 58:38Speaker 2: So they gave up seventeen to Tennessee.
- 58:41Speaker 5: They lost the not by the way, isn't a very
- 58:44Speaker 5: good offense.
- 58:44Speaker 2: But they lost the Texans nineteen thirteen, gave up nineteen
- 58:48Speaker 2: to the Texans, gave up twenty one, lost twenty one,
- 58:52Speaker 2: sixteen to the Colts, gave up eighteen to the Rams,
- 58:59Speaker 2: and gave up ten to the Carolina Panthers.
- 59:02Speaker 5: Okay, the eighteen of the Rams was without Cup and.
- 59:06Speaker 2: I'm not saying that, but I also watched the Rams
- 59:08Speaker 2: without those two guys put up some points against the
- 59:10Speaker 2: Detroit Lions.
- 59:12Speaker 5: Yeah, that's true.
- 59:14Speaker 2: The Bears are pretty there. I'm not saying it's the
- 59:18Speaker 2: eighty five Bears or anything. But that's a solid unit
- 59:21Speaker 2: that you're gonna it's gonna be one of the I'll
- 59:24Speaker 2: say this, Pete, it'll be one of the better units
- 59:26Speaker 2: we've played so far this year.
- 59:28Speaker 5: Defensively correct, yes, yes, yeah.
- 59:31Speaker 2: And the quarterback.
- 59:33Speaker 5: The quarterback is.
- 59:33Speaker 2: Better had he had a one twenty eight rating with
- 59:36Speaker 2: three hundred and ten yards or three hundred one yards
- 59:39Speaker 2: over three hund yards last week, and with the secondary
- 59:42Speaker 2: is here.
- 59:43Speaker 4: They ran the they ran the ball, which just helped
- 59:46Speaker 4: him with you know, they finally got swift going a
- 59:48Speaker 4: little bit yep, which.
- 59:49Speaker 5: Has helped it. So yeah, their offensive line in great I.
- 59:53Speaker 2: Thought it better than it is.
- 59:55Speaker 4: It is not and that's something that Jacksonville cold take
- 59:58Speaker 4: advantage of.
- 59:58Speaker 2: But you're right.
- 59:59Speaker 5: When it comes to the deep, that's going to be
- 1:00:00Speaker 5: your test for him.
- 1:00:01Speaker 4: We'll see, we'll see if this offensive line really has
- 1:00:04Speaker 4: made strides.
- 1:00:05Speaker 2: It's I guess the other thing I would say about
- 1:00:10Speaker 2: the offense and what I what I get concerned about,
- 1:00:17Speaker 2: not concerned, is if you do maybe a concern is
- 1:00:22Speaker 2: until this last week, it's not like we were doing
- 1:00:25Speaker 2: a great job of pressuring opposing quarterbacks. And at times,
- 1:00:29Speaker 2: let's not kid ourselves flack out a bunch of time
- 1:00:33Speaker 2: back there and through for three hundred and fifty plus yards.
- 1:00:39Speaker 5: Correct.
- 1:00:39Speaker 2: And so as much as we talk about how great
- 1:00:44Speaker 2: Traybon played, which he did, and how Josh has been
- 1:00:47Speaker 2: effective all your pressuring, it's not like we're constant a
- 1:00:51Speaker 2: consistent pressure team with.
- 1:00:52Speaker 5: Four Well, there's no pressure in the middle at all.
- 1:00:55Speaker 2: Real And the one thing that I have seen, and
- 1:00:57Speaker 2: I've not watched a ton of them, watch a little
- 1:01:00Speaker 2: bit of it. But if you give Caleb Williams back there, Tom,
- 1:01:04Speaker 2: it gives him, give him time back there. He has
- 1:01:06Speaker 2: weapons outside and the kid can sling it and is
- 1:01:09Speaker 2: unafraid to do it. Now, he does hold it.
- 1:01:13Speaker 5: He does hold it, That's my point.
- 1:01:15Speaker 2: He does hold it. But where is he struggled Pete?
- 1:01:18Speaker 2: When they get pressure, he starts running around like a
- 1:01:21Speaker 2: crazy man doing stupid stuff. But if you can't pressure him,
- 1:01:28Speaker 2: that's a problem.
- 1:01:29Speaker 4: I mean, we haven't talked about the interior pass rush,
- 1:01:32Speaker 4: the non existent interior pass rush.
- 1:01:35Speaker 2: That's a problem.
- 1:01:37Speaker 4: And what could you do to make it better, Tony.
- 1:01:43Speaker 2: Well, if you had more depth of defensive end, you
- 1:01:45Speaker 2: could play Eric Armstead in the three technique more often.
- 1:01:48Speaker 5: And he played some inside.
- 1:01:49Speaker 2: He did, but he's also I mean, the backup ends
- 1:01:52Speaker 2: for us are Roy Robinson, Harris and Eric Armstead.
- 1:01:57Speaker 5: And they should be the interior pass rushers on passing
- 1:02:00Speaker 5: down like.
- 1:02:00Speaker 2: You get you watch some of the like against sub
- 1:02:03Speaker 2: at times that's your four down rush with some combination
- 1:02:08Speaker 2: of the other guys. So you have four defensive tackles
- 1:02:12Speaker 2: out there rushing the quarterback. Let me tell you what
- 1:02:16Speaker 2: that does not do.
- 1:02:17Speaker 3: Put a lot of fear into the quarterback.
- 1:02:20Speaker 2: Into the opposing because you know what you're getting. You're
- 1:02:22Speaker 2: getting at power, you can sit on it. You're not
- 1:02:24Speaker 2: worried about the speed.
- 1:02:26Speaker 4: And Armsteard is not the same player, and he's not
- 1:02:29Speaker 4: the same player he as inside.
- 1:02:30Speaker 5: He just isn't.
- 1:02:31Speaker 2: No, And so one of the things you could do
- 1:02:36Speaker 2: is go get some depth at defensive end, so you
- 1:02:39Speaker 2: could play Armstead and Walker in the middle more because
- 1:02:42Speaker 2: they're probably your two best pass rushers.
- 1:02:45Speaker 3: Is there anyone out there to go get right now?
- 1:02:47Speaker 2: No? So no, there is no.
- 1:02:53Speaker 5: They didn't address it in the offseason.
- 1:02:56Speaker 2: I never to this day. I don't understand that, and
- 1:03:00Speaker 2: I don't Maybe he was a bad guy. Maybe he
- 1:03:02Speaker 2: was bad in the locker room, maybe the coaches. Hey,
- 1:03:04Speaker 2: I don't know, so I'm not. I'm not. But I
- 1:03:07Speaker 2: never understood the trade because because we didn't have anyone
- 1:03:11Speaker 2: to replace him, and you got a six rounder for him.
- 1:03:17Speaker 2: So I didn't understand that move. And the only backup
- 1:03:21Speaker 2: true defensive ends you kept was Cole who hasn't been
- 1:03:25Speaker 2: active since Week one. And Abdulah can play end and sub,
- 1:03:32Speaker 2: but he's we haven't seen great pass rushers from him
- 1:03:36Speaker 2: since he's been here. I think his natural position is
- 1:03:39Speaker 2: much better at SAM but he was hurt last week,
- 1:03:41Speaker 2: so I didn't play. So I don't know the answer.
- 1:03:44Speaker 2: I really don't. But you got a pressure, and you
- 1:03:48Speaker 2: gotta pressure quarterbacks in this league, and if you don't,
- 1:03:50Speaker 2: they're gonna tear you up.
- 1:03:51Speaker 4: And and if you only pressure from the outside and
- 1:03:54Speaker 4: there's no pressure on the inside, they'll just step up
- 1:03:56Speaker 4: away from it. I mean that they gotta have somebody
- 1:03:58Speaker 4: push that pocket in the middle. Here's the other thing,
- 1:04:01Speaker 4: and again I'm gonna go back to my pet peeve.
- 1:04:03Speaker 4: First series of the of the on defense, get a
- 1:04:06Speaker 4: first down, off they come, let's bring the backups back in.
- 1:04:10Speaker 4: Now we'll get the They jumped over the boards. They
- 1:04:13Speaker 4: got in their hockey. They keep them over the boards
- 1:04:16Speaker 4: and it was their turn to play their line. I
- 1:04:18Speaker 4: don't understand it. Three plays three three plays and they're off.
- 1:04:23Speaker 2: What are they doing?
- 1:04:24Speaker 3: They're winded, so they keep it.
- 1:04:26Speaker 4: Fresh for the fourth quarter. Did you see how fresh.
- 1:04:28Speaker 2: They were late in the game? All right, Sam, real
- 1:04:31Speaker 2: quick before we go, peak question for you. How is
- 1:04:35Speaker 2: DeMarcus Walker playing at the other end opposite Sweat?
- 1:04:39Speaker 5: Okay, not great.
- 1:04:40Speaker 2: I just haven't watched. I was just looking at their
- 1:04:42Speaker 2: depth chart and I didn't know. I didn't even know
- 1:04:44Speaker 2: what DeMarcus Walker signed there. All right, the Gator.
- 1:04:47Speaker 3: Stay with us here on Jaguars Happy are presented by
- 1:04:49Speaker 3: mister Chubby's Wings coming back. We are going to keep
- 1:04:51Speaker 3: it real about the offensive line.
- 1:05:01Speaker 8: This is the second week in a row, really that
- 1:05:03Speaker 8: our line has played good as a unit, you.
- 1:05:05Speaker 7: Know, and listen, I mean.
- 1:05:08Speaker 8: It's been the same five guys now right. So when
- 1:05:13Speaker 8: I say there's continuity keeping those five together, there's continuity
- 1:05:18Speaker 8: and they start learning to play together, and that's what
- 1:05:21Speaker 8: you're seeing. I think these last couple of weeks you're
- 1:05:23Speaker 8: seeing that.
- 1:05:24Speaker 7: And it was a.
- 1:05:26Speaker 8: You know, just a great game by those guys again today.
- 1:05:32Speaker 2: So that was Doug Peterson talking about the offensive line,
- 1:05:34Speaker 2: and I agree with him one hundred percent continuity. But
- 1:05:39Speaker 2: here's my critique, and I'm going to follow up with
- 1:05:43Speaker 2: something I've discussed on this show with Pete personally, with
- 1:05:46Speaker 2: anyone who listened to me. This is why you should
- 1:05:51Speaker 2: play your offensive line and have a bunch more during
- 1:05:55Speaker 2: the preseason in training camp because of what he just said.
- 1:06:00Speaker 2: He's one hundred percent right. The longer an offensive line
- 1:06:04Speaker 2: plays together, it's a position. You need to be in sync.
- 1:06:07Speaker 2: You need to communicate, you need to learn how to
- 1:06:09Speaker 2: play together, you need to get the pad level down,
- 1:06:11Speaker 2: all things that takes reps to do. And so my
- 1:06:15Speaker 2: pet peeve not just with our team, with every team
- 1:06:19Speaker 2: in this league, not every because some teams do it differently.
- 1:06:23Speaker 2: I would most don't. Most don't. So how Doug does
- 1:06:28Speaker 2: it is probably the norm. Is I think that offensive line,
- 1:06:32Speaker 2: let's take everyone. I would play that. I would practice
- 1:06:35Speaker 2: them harder in training camp.
- 1:06:36Speaker 3: Would Can you do that with the way practices are?
- 1:06:39Speaker 2: You can do it as much as you like. I mean,
- 1:06:41Speaker 2: you can do it more than That's not true. You
- 1:06:46Speaker 2: should maximize what you have and we don't.
- 1:06:50Speaker 3: We do not.
- 1:06:51Speaker 2: We do not. You should maximize and you should maximize
- 1:06:57Speaker 2: every padded practice you have during training camp. I would
- 1:07:01Speaker 2: play all five of those guys if they're healthy. Obviously
- 1:07:05Speaker 2: we have some injuries this camp, so we couldn't. I
- 1:07:07Speaker 2: would play them extended periods of times. And if guys
- 1:07:10Speaker 2: are hurt, I said, okay, well I'm not gonna play
- 1:07:12Speaker 2: maybe the starter as much this game. But when you're
- 1:07:14Speaker 2: all healthy, you're playing a long time, like half half
- 1:07:19Speaker 2: in a you know, a series in the second I
- 1:07:22Speaker 2: mean why and but you're working.
- 1:07:24Speaker 5: Against another team, you're playing together.
- 1:07:26Speaker 2: You're playing together, and we are gonna and like when
- 1:07:29Speaker 2: we have a team here, both are gonna be pad
- 1:07:31Speaker 2: of practices, not just one. Because you as an offensive
- 1:07:34Speaker 2: lineman you get nothing, actually get bad habits because you
- 1:07:37Speaker 2: stand up and you don't finish, you don't do stuff.
- 1:07:40Speaker 2: And so I agree with Doug this one of the
- 1:07:42Speaker 2: reasons this group is playing together. They've stayed healthy for
- 1:07:44Speaker 2: the first five games they've played together, and you can
- 1:07:47Speaker 2: see them improving, especially over the last two weeks. Well
- 1:07:52Speaker 2: why because they're working together. They're getting more reps, they're
- 1:07:55Speaker 2: getting pad level down, they're working better double teams. They're
- 1:07:57Speaker 2: working to the next level, they're finishing better. That's all
- 1:08:01Speaker 2: stuff that you should develop in camp in the preseason.
- 1:08:06Speaker 4: And Tony, to your point, we're at week five, right, Yes,
- 1:08:11Speaker 4: the scoring started.
- 1:08:12Speaker 2: The scoring started going up again this week because people
- 1:08:15Speaker 2: are blocking people because the preseason is the first four weeks.
- 1:08:19Speaker 5: Now.
- 1:08:20Speaker 2: It's bad football. It's terrible.
- 1:08:23Speaker 4: I'm gonna gives an example of it of a play
- 1:08:25Speaker 4: and I tweeted it out there on Bigsby's run. You
- 1:08:29Speaker 4: saw Cleveland and Morse had the double and he got
- 1:08:33Speaker 4: he got off of it. Yeah, and got it a
- 1:08:36Speaker 4: linebacker and there's there's the whole run up touchdown that
- 1:08:40Speaker 4: takes work. You can't just simulate that with dummies, you
- 1:08:43Speaker 4: know that, Tony, and I thought.
- 1:08:44Speaker 2: And I thought on the other side, I thought, I
- 1:08:46Speaker 2: thought Anton and Sheriff had some nice double teams working together.
- 1:08:51Speaker 2: I thought it was like good football, it's fun to watch.
- 1:08:54Speaker 2: I enjoyed this morning. I mean, I mean, I was like,
- 1:08:56Speaker 2: this is what is supposed to look like. But it's
- 1:09:00Speaker 2: there's no mystery why it doesn't right because they don't
- 1:09:03Speaker 2: get enough rip in. What I get what drives me
- 1:09:06Speaker 2: crazy is everyone's afraid of injuries. Why don't get my
- 1:09:10Speaker 2: guys hurt in the preseason or in camp or what.
- 1:09:13Speaker 3: Yeah, but playing bad for a quarter of your season
- 1:09:15Speaker 3: is just as dance.
- 1:09:16Speaker 2: Hold on, why are there more injuries now than when
- 1:09:19Speaker 2: I played? And we beat the hell out of each other. Now,
- 1:09:22Speaker 2: I'm not saying you should go back to what we did.
- 1:09:25Speaker 2: That was probably too far the other way. Two a
- 1:09:27Speaker 2: days for four weeks, and I mean just the you
- 1:09:31Speaker 2: know I was. You know, I'm like, Okay, I get it,
- 1:09:33Speaker 2: I know, but but I'll say this. You go turn
- 1:09:36Speaker 2: on the tape early season games. We were playing good football.
- 1:09:42Speaker 2: We were playing at a level you had to because
- 1:09:44Speaker 2: everyone else was too.
- 1:09:46Speaker 5: And yeah, because you played in the preseason.
- 1:09:48Speaker 2: You played in the preseason, our preseason two to three series,
- 1:09:52Speaker 2: preseason game one quarter and a half, two a half,
- 1:09:56Speaker 2: depending how it was going. Preseason two, preseason three full
- 1:10:00Speaker 2: half and at least one drive in the third quarter,
- 1:10:04Speaker 2: preseason four or ten.
- 1:10:05Speaker 3: Plays plus padded practices, a lot more than what we see.
- 1:10:08Speaker 2: Now double days. And when we went to a team
- 1:10:12Speaker 2: for day it was an all out brawl. It was physical.
- 1:10:18Speaker 2: And so I get that. I'm not I'm not the
- 1:10:20Speaker 2: old guy saying, hey, you gotta go back and do
- 1:10:22Speaker 2: it like that.
- 1:10:23Speaker 5: I know you can't do it like that.
- 1:10:24Speaker 2: It's against the CBA rules the union.
- 1:10:27Speaker 4: Even if they weren't, you still couldn't do it that
- 1:10:29Speaker 4: way anymore.
- 1:10:30Speaker 2: I don't think you have to. I actually think one
- 1:10:34Speaker 2: practice a day, in getting after it for four weeks
- 1:10:38Speaker 2: or three or a half weeks, whatever it is, and
- 1:10:40Speaker 2: playing these guys more in the preseason, I think you
- 1:10:44Speaker 2: would have a huge advantage opening day because you would
- 1:10:49Speaker 2: be further ahead, progressing, playing more in sync together. Offensive
- 1:10:56Speaker 2: line would be protecting and running the ball better, which
- 1:11:00Speaker 2: gives your quarterback more time, and your skill guys get
- 1:11:02Speaker 2: open and everything else, and your back to that room,
- 1:11:05Speaker 2: you beat up people. It just changes. And so Doug
- 1:11:09Speaker 2: is one hundred percent right his whole point. Man, I
- 1:11:11Speaker 2: agree with him. We're seeing better play for one of
- 1:11:14Speaker 2: the reasons because the continuity and then getting used to
- 1:11:17Speaker 2: each other, understanding each other, getting better pad level, better footwork,
- 1:11:20Speaker 2: better doubles, better pass protection because they're wrapping it and
- 1:11:24Speaker 2: they're doing it live and they're going full speed. They
- 1:11:27Speaker 2: don't do that enough on this team or most.
- 1:11:31Speaker 5: Of the ANSA around.
- 1:11:33Speaker 2: The league, and I just and I don't buy. Oh,
- 1:11:38Speaker 2: we're worried about guys getting hurt. We've been playing football forever.
- 1:11:41Speaker 2: And by the way, like I don't remember outside of
- 1:11:46Speaker 2: two thousand and it was the first padded practice of
- 1:11:50Speaker 2: the of the of the camp when Leon Sercy tore
- 1:11:54Speaker 2: a squad where all five guys were not the starters,
- 1:12:01Speaker 2: were not their opening day. Now, did a guy miss
- 1:12:04Speaker 2: a preseason game here or there, or miss a practice
- 1:12:06Speaker 2: or two, Sure, but you were getting reps. And then
- 1:12:12Speaker 2: guess what your backups were getting a lot of reps.
- 1:12:16Speaker 2: And what were you doing. You were developing young offensive linemen.
- 1:12:21Speaker 2: What are we lacking in this league today? We don't
- 1:12:24Speaker 2: lack I don't. We don't lack wide receivers. Bunny guys
- 1:12:28Speaker 2: can run, catch and do amazing things. We don't lack backs.
- 1:12:34Speaker 2: We lacked two positions and off we don't lack tight ends,
- 1:12:38Speaker 2: offensive linemen and elite quarterbacks. There's not enough, Like I
- 1:12:46Speaker 2: don't think you could have more than thirty two teams
- 1:12:47Speaker 2: because I don't know if there's enough offensive linemen. The
- 1:12:51Speaker 2: base of the way the college game is played today
- 1:12:52Speaker 2: and the lack of practice they have at that level,
- 1:12:55Speaker 2: and the lack of coaching in some places are getting
- 1:12:57Speaker 2: and their lack of understanding how an offense actually works
- 1:13:00Speaker 2: and what fronts are and what you know, coverages and
- 1:13:03Speaker 2: all the different things are aren't taught anymore, and the
- 1:13:07Speaker 2: lack and then so now we're taking those guys to
- 1:13:09Speaker 2: this level with the limited practices, is not enough time
- 1:13:13Speaker 2: to develop them, and no wonder the result is just
- 1:13:16Speaker 2: awful football in September because nobody can block anybody.
- 1:13:19Speaker 4: It's you know what to Tony, think about this? With
- 1:13:22Speaker 4: all the seven on seven camps that are out there.
- 1:13:24Speaker 4: Now we have some of the greatest receivers at seventeen eighty,
- 1:13:28Speaker 4: oh my god, twenty years old you've ever seen. And
- 1:13:31Speaker 4: so that position has mushroomed into something special, and the
- 1:13:36Speaker 4: grunt position, the offensive line has morphed into something that
- 1:13:39Speaker 4: is dreadful. And you talk about depth, go watch some
- 1:13:42Speaker 4: of the XFL UFL where those teams are.
- 1:13:45Speaker 5: You want to see bad offensive line play because of
- 1:13:48Speaker 5: your theory.
- 1:13:49Speaker 2: I exactly what I'm telling you, because offensive line is
- 1:13:57Speaker 2: a harder position to play than anything else besides quarterback,
- 1:14:03Speaker 2: because of what you're being asked to do in the
- 1:14:06Speaker 2: in the athletes you're playing against it, and it has
- 1:14:08Speaker 2: to be in coordination across the line with everyone else,
- 1:14:11Speaker 2: and you have to do things together combo blocks, and
- 1:14:15Speaker 2: you're backing up to protect somebody with a guy come
- 1:14:18Speaker 2: full speed at you, like the only way. Like at
- 1:14:24Speaker 2: some level you can just like, is Brian Thomas jor
- 1:14:29Speaker 2: a great route runner right now? Is he a great
- 1:14:32Speaker 2: route runner? No?
- 1:14:34Speaker 6: No?
- 1:14:35Speaker 2: Was Jimmy Smith a great route runner year in nineteen
- 1:14:39Speaker 2: ninety six?
- 1:14:40Speaker 7: No?
- 1:14:41Speaker 2: What they are now? Jimmy Smith became an outstanding route
- 1:14:45Speaker 2: runner right over the middle. Why he's one of the
- 1:14:50Speaker 2: best ever. And I believe Brian Thomas Junior will become
- 1:14:54Speaker 2: an outstanding route runner as he progresses and he gets wrapped.
- 1:14:57Speaker 2: Why is he so effective as a rookie Because he's
- 1:15:02Speaker 2: a supreme athlete. He's just a better athlete. He can fly,
- 1:15:07Speaker 2: he has good hands, he's you know, and I'm not
- 1:15:10Speaker 2: saying I'm sure he works hard and all that. I'm
- 1:15:12Speaker 2: not taking that away. As an offensive lineman, you can
- 1:15:17Speaker 2: be the best athlete you want to be if you
- 1:15:20Speaker 2: don't have the technique in understand the position and how
- 1:15:23Speaker 2: to work in coordination with another guy and and double
- 1:15:28Speaker 2: teams and understand passe sets and angles and what a
- 1:15:31Speaker 2: defensive lineman is trying to do to you and everything else.
- 1:15:34Speaker 2: I'm not saying. Receivers not a technical You have to
- 1:15:35Speaker 2: learn how to get off the jam, all those things
- 1:15:37Speaker 2: and those things. But you only get that as an
- 1:15:41Speaker 2: offensive lineman by reps, and you only get better by
- 1:15:45Speaker 2: live reps because you end up getting some bad habits,
- 1:15:49Speaker 2: especially in the run game. If it's not because your
- 1:15:51Speaker 2: pads get too high and you don't, you don't. It's
- 1:15:53Speaker 2: not the same like because you're right. The last thing,
- 1:15:57Speaker 2: and I'll let you go, is you're right seven on s.
- 1:16:00Speaker 2: You can replicate a lot of stuff with no pads
- 1:16:02Speaker 2: on and get a lot of reps in the with
- 1:16:08Speaker 2: low risk, no contact, and then that simulates very similar
- 1:16:14Speaker 2: to what it's gonna happen on game day. You can't
- 1:16:17Speaker 2: do that as an offensive alignment. It is impossible.
- 1:16:20Speaker 4: And here's the other thing, real quick, in the back
- 1:16:23Speaker 4: of the day, he used to be able to take
- 1:16:24Speaker 4: a tackle who couldn't be a tackle and develop him
- 1:16:28Speaker 4: into a guard.
- 1:16:30Speaker 2: Zach, Zach, Zach Martin.
- 1:16:34Speaker 4: I can go back to Marshall yonda media, you know,
- 1:16:37Speaker 4: on and on and on, hey Ben Coleman, who played
- 1:16:39Speaker 4: next to you at guard, was once tackle. Well, now
- 1:16:43Speaker 4: it's so tough to do that because you don't have
- 1:16:46Speaker 4: the developmental time.
- 1:16:48Speaker 5: The hitting it's different.
- 1:16:50Speaker 4: So when you say, okay, I used to always look
- 1:16:53Speaker 4: for guys when I used to look by analysis, say
- 1:16:56Speaker 4: well he's not good enough to play tackle, but boy,
- 1:16:58Speaker 4: you could move him inside and make him a guard.
- 1:17:00Speaker 4: That's hard to do now because you don't have the
- 1:17:02Speaker 4: developmental time to do it.
- 1:17:04Speaker 5: You're not hitting, You're not hitting anybody.
- 1:17:05Speaker 2: And I'll end with this, I know we got a break.
- 1:17:09Speaker 2: I understand Doug's hesitancy because to do what I'm saying
- 1:17:13Speaker 2: is going against the grain. And if somebody does get.
- 1:17:16Speaker 3: Hurt, it's on you.
- 1:17:17Speaker 2: The finger is gonna get pointed. And so it's not
- 1:17:20Speaker 2: just the head coach who has to have that philosophy.
- 1:17:23Speaker 2: It has to be the whole organization that this is
- 1:17:26Speaker 2: what we believe. And I'm not just talking about the Jaguars.
- 1:17:29Speaker 2: I'm talking league wide. And so I get why coaches
- 1:17:32Speaker 2: are like because if I put my starter out there
- 1:17:36Speaker 2: and he gets hurt, everyone's gonna say, why are you
- 1:17:39Speaker 2: playing him in the preseason. Well, the simple answer is
- 1:17:43Speaker 2: that's how you play football and that's how you get
- 1:17:44Speaker 2: better at things. But it would be a bigin That's
- 1:17:47Speaker 2: my point. It wasn't a big deal when I played
- 1:17:49Speaker 2: because that's how everyone did it right. And I think
- 1:17:53Speaker 2: it's an opportunity for somebody in this league. And I
- 1:17:55Speaker 2: know some teams that do it, not a lot, though
- 1:17:58Speaker 2: I know a couple, but I think it's an opportunity
- 1:18:04Speaker 2: for a team in this league, saying, at least for
- 1:18:07Speaker 2: the big guys, we are going to practice and we
- 1:18:10Speaker 2: are going to be physical and they're going to play
- 1:18:12Speaker 2: because opening day we are going to be ready to
- 1:18:16Speaker 2: roll and I just don't think teams are. And I
- 1:18:19Speaker 2: think and I'd love to do that. Every year we
- 1:18:21Speaker 2: talked about this at some point on this show, and
- 1:18:24Speaker 2: I always threaten to do this and I never do it.
- 1:18:26Speaker 2: It'd be great to do, Like go look, and I'm
- 1:18:28Speaker 2: sure there's studies out there the injuries that happened in
- 1:18:31Speaker 2: today's game compared to when camp in preparation was different
- 1:18:36Speaker 2: because there's a lot of injuries still, tissue injuries, a
- 1:18:40Speaker 2: lot of I don't know what it is, but I'd
- 1:18:45Speaker 2: like to look at it because I know one thing
- 1:18:49Speaker 2: I can turn on the tape and for the first
- 1:18:51Speaker 2: part of the season September, a lot of bad football
- 1:18:55Speaker 2: and a lot of offensive line player that's not very good.
- 1:18:57Speaker 5: Ky needs to wave the paper like JB does this
- 1:19:00Speaker 5: shut you up session? All right?
- 1:19:01Speaker 3: They kept it real on the offensive line. Coming back.
- 1:19:03Speaker 3: We're gonna do our fanatic fan questions here on Jaguars

- 1:19:25Speaker 10: In moments when we needed it the most, got stepped
- 1:19:27Speaker 10: up and we were able to fight through that adversity.
- 1:19:29Speaker 10: So it just you know, builds confidence, you know that,
- 1:19:31Speaker 10: and moments that we needed. We have the guys, we
- 1:19:33Speaker 10: have the people, We have the team that can step
- 1:19:35Speaker 10: up and doing it. So we just got to you know,
- 1:19:36Speaker 10: keep it rolling, you know, use this this momentum to
- 1:19:39Speaker 10: you know, take it over to London and keep accumulating wins.
- 1:19:44Speaker 3: Welcome back into Jags Am here, jag Sam Here, Jaguars Happy.
- 1:19:47Speaker 3: I'm doing too many shows today. Jaguars Happy are here,
- 1:19:49Speaker 3: presented by mister Chubby's Wings. We did see some fight
- 1:19:53Speaker 3: back from this team. A lot of things had not
- 1:19:55Speaker 3: been going their way earlier. This season and they weren't
- 1:19:57Speaker 3: able to bounce back. They did just that, getting their
- 1:20:00Speaker 3: first win of the year in the throwback uniforms looking stylish.
- 1:20:04Speaker 2: Talk how about those jerseys, guy.
- 1:20:06Speaker 3: So I feel I'm unbiased because I was not around
- 1:20:09Speaker 3: when they were here. They just look better. Are they green?
- 1:20:13Speaker 3: Are they brighter? Are they green? The color is better,
- 1:20:16Speaker 3: more Teal, the more Teal, the Teal itself is better.
- 1:20:19Speaker 3: And then the the society.
- 1:20:23Speaker 2: The ribbing, the logo and the ribbing and all that. Yeah,
- 1:20:25Speaker 2: it's just much better looking uniform.
- 1:20:28Speaker 3: I know every fan base wants their throwbacks, but this
- 1:20:30Speaker 3: is justified. They are entirely better.
- 1:20:32Speaker 5: Trevor wore black shoes. Did you notice that?
- 1:20:36Speaker 2: I did not. I didn't pick that up.
- 1:20:38Speaker 5: It looked, it looked. It looked much better than black shoes.
- 1:20:41Speaker 5: So maybe you should wear them again.
- 1:20:42Speaker 2: I'll tell you what though, I'm with you, Kai, and
- 1:20:45Speaker 2: I'm biased because those jersey but.
- 1:20:48Speaker 3: They thought they market better, market better, and.
- 1:20:51Speaker 2: I I'm just going on the record now and say
- 1:20:56Speaker 2: I like our home jerseys being Teal jerseys white pants.
- 1:21:01Speaker 3: I don't think we wear Teal enough.
- 1:21:03Speaker 2: I like her like Teal jerseys white pants. And on
- 1:21:06Speaker 2: the road. I like the white jerseys with white pants.
- 1:21:09Speaker 2: I just like, that's what you used to wear. That's
- 1:21:12Speaker 2: what we did in September at home. If it was hot,
- 1:21:15Speaker 2: we'd wear the white jerseys and make them wear the
- 1:21:17Speaker 2: dark ris. But I just I just and what I
- 1:21:20Speaker 2: just thought, because it kind of gives you an identity
- 1:21:24Speaker 2: of who you are too. It's like, this is who like,
- 1:21:26Speaker 2: this is who we are, this is what we wear.
- 1:21:28Speaker 4: The funny thing is, back in the day, I didn't
- 1:21:31Speaker 4: I thought that uniform was kind of ah. And now
- 1:21:34Speaker 4: now compared to what they've been wearing, I think it's
- 1:21:36Speaker 4: ten times better, so much better.
- 1:21:38Speaker 2: Well, but here's the thing. I'm in the minority because
- 1:21:40Speaker 2: this is the old guy talking, because I think the
- 1:21:41Speaker 2: young guys like the different combinations and different looks and
- 1:21:47Speaker 2: you know, all black. Sometimes I am too. That's just me.
- 1:21:51Speaker 2: So I'm not saying it's right or wrong, but my opinion.
- 1:21:53Speaker 4: Arizona Cardinals all whites, used to be a great uniform.
- 1:21:57Speaker 3: Oh great, all right, guys, it's do some Fanatics fan questions.

- 1:22:05Speaker 3: special offer at fanatics dot Com officially licensed everything. Pete,
- 1:22:09Speaker 3: this one's for you because I know you're gonna love it.
- 1:22:11Speaker 3: Did Tank give you Fred Taylor MJD vibes yesterday breaking
- 1:22:15Speaker 3: through those tackles?
- 1:22:18Speaker 4: He did, he ran physical, But did he give me
- 1:22:21Speaker 4: vibes of those guys?
- 1:22:22Speaker 5: Absolutely not, No way, No.
- 1:22:25Speaker 3: I mean, look, that's a high bar.
- 1:22:28Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, I.
- 1:22:29Speaker 4: Mean you're comparing him to the Technically, he's a backup
- 1:22:31Speaker 4: running back right now, and you're comparing him to the
- 1:22:34Speaker 4: best running back ever on that team, a guy who
- 1:22:36Speaker 4: should be Canton and a special guy who's the number
- 1:22:39Speaker 4: two ranked running back in the franchise. So it's way
- 1:22:43Speaker 4: too early for that. So the answer to that question
- 1:22:45Speaker 4: is no and no.
- 1:22:47Speaker 2: I would agree with Pete on everything, but I'll say this,
- 1:22:51Speaker 2: I would like to see what he looks like if
- 1:22:52Speaker 2: he got the ball twenty times a game.
- 1:22:55Speaker 3: Should he be your starter?
- 1:22:58Speaker 2: I think that the starter is more situational of kind.
- 1:23:01Speaker 3: Of what you think he should lead the team in
- 1:23:03Speaker 3: carries every week.
- 1:23:04Speaker 2: I do think he I think he should have more
- 1:23:06Speaker 2: carries than anyone else. Now, if you get in a
- 1:23:08Speaker 2: situation where you know Travis is hot, and I mean
- 1:23:12Speaker 2: I think there's nothing wrong with running right in the
- 1:23:15Speaker 2: hot hand. I think there's probably plays that Travis does
- 1:23:17Speaker 2: better than Tank. I think we have the luxury of
- 1:23:19Speaker 2: having two very good backs. That's a that's a luxury.
- 1:23:24Speaker 2: But if you're asking me who I would make the workhorse,
- 1:23:28Speaker 2: I would make Tank the workhorse.
- 1:23:30Speaker 4: Should they make it like the Ravens use Justice Hill
- 1:23:35Speaker 4: and Derek Henton.
- 1:23:35Speaker 2: I think that's a good. That's a good, that's a
- 1:23:37Speaker 2: good comparison, that's a good example therapy. I think that's
- 1:23:41Speaker 2: I didn't think of that, but yes, all.
- 1:23:43Speaker 3: Right, to do a couple of questions about the defense.
- 1:23:46Speaker 3: We talked about the secondary. The issues with that comeback
- 1:23:49Speaker 3: in the fourth quarter. What's your level of concern with
- 1:23:51Speaker 3: the secondary, specifically the safety positions.
- 1:23:54Speaker 2: It's got to be pretty high right now because we're
- 1:23:56Speaker 2: seeing some bus you know, and and some tackling.
- 1:24:02Speaker 5: A little yet so terrible.
- 1:24:06Speaker 4: I got concerns, and I mean, I mean, let me
- 1:24:08Speaker 4: say this about the two safeties. I thought both of
- 1:24:11Speaker 4: them would take major steps forward this year, and they've
- 1:24:14Speaker 4: actually gone in the other direction. And it's weird for
- 1:24:17Speaker 4: Cisco because he's in a contract year. That one surprised
- 1:24:20Speaker 4: me a little bit. Uh, he hasn't played very well.
- 1:24:23Speaker 4: Antonio Johnson looks like at times he doesn't even want
- 1:24:26Speaker 4: to tackle anybody.
- 1:24:27Speaker 2: I don't that. So when this is.
- 1:24:31Speaker 4: Gonna sound crazy, but Tony, when Tshawn Gibson comes back.
- 1:24:36Speaker 5: And Winger comes back, they might play.
- 1:24:42Speaker 2: Should they start, I wouldn't go that far yet. We
- 1:24:45Speaker 2: haven't seen either of You don't know how Dewey's knees
- 1:24:48Speaker 2: gonna be or actually back. And to Sean, Gibson's on
- 1:24:52Speaker 2: a six game suspension, so you don't know what he's
- 1:24:54Speaker 2: gonna look like when he gets back. There is concern.
- 1:25:00Speaker 4: They've been the biggest to me, they've been the biggest
- 1:25:02Speaker 4: disappointment in the entire team in terms of defense, those
- 1:25:07Speaker 4: two have not played very well.
- 1:25:08Speaker 2: I mean that's fair. I think a couple of bright spots.
- 1:25:13Speaker 2: Monteric Brown, you know now he got beat over the
- 1:25:16Speaker 2: top late on the overall physical He's not a big
- 1:25:21Speaker 2: dude and he plays big and I mean fist. He's
- 1:25:27Speaker 2: not fair. He's very competitive. I'm like really like, like
- 1:25:31Speaker 2: I was worried about our corner depth and then Tyson
- 1:25:34Speaker 2: Campbell got hurt. I was like, oh no, I was wrong.
- 1:25:38Speaker 2: Flat wrong, Monteric Brown playing good football, and the other
- 1:25:42Speaker 2: real positive and I mean really interested to see what
- 1:25:45Speaker 2: they do. Coming up here pretty quickly is Vontrell Miller.
- 1:25:50Speaker 2: I don't know when when Foyer comes back. How do
- 1:25:54Speaker 2: you have vontrelle on the sideline like he's your best
- 1:25:57Speaker 2: linebacker right now?
- 1:25:58Speaker 3: Well the way they say, I'm sure that find a way,
- 1:26:00Speaker 3: but I don't know.
- 1:26:01Speaker 2: How he's not on the field every now.
- 1:26:03Speaker 5: The hockey team will find a way to get him
- 1:26:04Speaker 5: twenty five.
- 1:26:05Speaker 2: But you know what I'm saying, I mean, he's I mean,
- 1:26:07Speaker 2: he's a tackling machine. When he hits you, you.
- 1:26:10Speaker 5: Make a splash.
- 1:26:11Speaker 4: Plays makes splash plays, give them.
- 1:26:14Speaker 2: He got his coverage needs to improve. I agree with that. People.
- 1:26:18Speaker 4: When he covered the one guy and man the man coverage,
- 1:26:20Speaker 4: he went out and made a play on him, and
- 1:26:22Speaker 4: he and.
- 1:26:23Speaker 2: His speed shuts down those stuff in the shuts down
- 1:26:27Speaker 2: stuff in the flat. He gets there really quickly. He's
- 1:26:30Speaker 2: got to stay on the field no matter what.
- 1:26:32Speaker 5: He has to stay on the field, all right, And
- 1:26:34Speaker 5: you just got you have to admit a mistake.
- 1:26:37Speaker 2: Which one here we go, keep going, guy, don't don't bite,
- 1:26:41Speaker 2: don't bite, don't bite, don't bite.
- 1:26:43Speaker 3: We're gonna do our final.
- 1:26:44Speaker 2: I'm a skip.
- 1:26:44Speaker 3: I'm a skip one. We're gonna do our final. Fan question,
- 1:26:47Speaker 3: do the boys get it done and come back from
- 1:26:49Speaker 3: London three and four?
- 1:26:52Speaker 2: I'll let Pete go first. I'm gonna say they do.
- 1:26:57Speaker 4: All right, Tony, Well, they're definitely gonna get one because
- 1:26:59Speaker 4: they'll beat New England and I think they'll beat the Bears.
- 1:27:01Speaker 4: I'm not crazy of the Bears like some people are.
- 1:27:04Speaker 4: I still think the quarterbacks got issues. I think the
- 1:27:06Speaker 4: offensive lines got issues. I think that they'll find a
- 1:27:08Speaker 4: way to win it.
- 1:27:11Speaker 2: I'm gonna say not only do I think they're gonna
- 1:27:17Speaker 2: come back three and four. I'm gonna lock. Everyone's gonna
- 1:27:21Speaker 2: three and four. I'm not gonna allow Pete the Lockett. No,
- 1:27:24Speaker 2: we're gonna No, he's not because the last time we
- 1:27:27Speaker 2: double locked it was a disaster. Triple lock. No, triple
- 1:27:30Speaker 2: lock has been really negative. Although you've never looked, j P.
- 1:27:33Speaker 3: Tri block might be tripl might be great.
- 1:27:36Speaker 2: You can double, you can do a double. I'm comfortable
- 1:27:39Speaker 2: doing a double lock with you. I'm not with Pete
- 1:27:41Speaker 2: or JP.
- 1:27:42Speaker 5: I'm not in.
- 1:27:43Speaker 3: I'm not in all right, double Lockett.
- 1:27:44Speaker 2: Double locket Kai with the lock I'm in Let's.
- 1:27:48Speaker 3: Go Monday Happy our first of the year.
- 1:27:50Speaker 4: When they come back from London and they don't get
- 1:27:53Speaker 4: either one of them to start talking about the.
- 1:27:54Speaker 3: Drill, J can deal with it then.
- 1:27:56Speaker 2: So the beautiful thing is Kai has no accountability this
- 1:28:00Speaker 2: thing because we come back. Kyle's what shock for the
- 1:28:04Speaker 2: one after London is.
- 1:28:06Speaker 4: He Oh, yeah, you're gonna have to be here work.
- 1:28:11Speaker 2: Let's go on. It's not gonna go poorly. We're gonna
- 1:28:14Speaker 2: do it. That's gonna be great, got it, wins, I
- 1:28:16Speaker 2: love it all.
- 1:28:16Speaker 3: Right, stay with us here on Diagon's Happy ar presented
- 1:28:18Speaker 3: by mister Chubby's coming Back. We'll talk about what else
- 1:28:21Speaker 3: is going on in the NFL.
- 1:28:31Speaker 2: And then CBS said early in the game that you
- 1:28:34Speaker 2: and Gabe.
- 1:28:34Speaker 4: Kind of got into it and you maybe even threw
- 1:28:37Speaker 4: a tablet.
- 1:28:38Speaker 3: Was there was there an exchange over there on the sideline?
- 1:28:40Speaker 7: It down firmly?
- 1:28:42Speaker 6: Now, uh yeah, we were set it down roughly, yeah.
- 1:28:46Speaker 7: Exactly loosely. Yeah, I mean we're just it happens in
- 1:28:52Speaker 7: this game.
- 1:28:53Speaker 6: I mean if you people that have played it, no,
- 1:28:56Speaker 6: people that have it probably don't really understand all the
- 1:28:58Speaker 6: emotions I go into it and and there was some frustration.
- 1:29:01Speaker 7: We had a little back and forth and cleared it up.
- 1:29:04Speaker 7: That's all it is, you know.
- 1:29:05Speaker 6: I think that's what stuff like that's important. And I
- 1:29:07Speaker 6: love when stuff like that happens. You confront issues and hey,
- 1:29:10Speaker 6: if I'm pissed about something, he's pissed about something, let's
- 1:29:12Speaker 6: talk about it and move on.
- 1:29:13Speaker 7: And we did a great job of that.
- 1:29:14Speaker 6: You know, Gabe's always good at communicating, so got on
- 1:29:17Speaker 6: the same page quick and it was good back here.
- 1:29:20Speaker 3: I'm happy our quarterback. Trevor Lawrence, addressing the reports on
- 1:29:24Speaker 3: the broadcast about him and gave Davis getting into it
- 1:29:27Speaker 3: on the sideline, Tony said, sometimes you get into it
- 1:29:29Speaker 3: and then oh gosh, we're all friends now again.
- 1:29:32Speaker 2: It's it's a non story. What Trevor said is exactly right.
- 1:29:36Speaker 2: Anybody who's played the game, coached the game, or covered
- 1:29:40Speaker 2: the game closely, it's a non issue. I mean, I've
- 1:29:47Speaker 2: been involved in heated discussions with players and a lot
- 1:29:52Speaker 2: of time coaches in the heat of the battle. Why
- 1:29:56Speaker 2: because it matters. It's important. You're competitive. If you can
- 1:30:01Speaker 2: be frustrated, you want things going better. Whatever it is,
- 1:30:05Speaker 2: and I think emotion's good. And I always laugh at
- 1:30:11Speaker 2: sometimes the media does this, sometimes our fans do this.
- 1:30:15Speaker 2: Is you hear them say we want players to care
- 1:30:19Speaker 2: and have emotion and be all in and then something
- 1:30:23Speaker 2: that where emotion, you know, I use just you know,
- 1:30:26Speaker 2: I might've gotten a couple of personal fouls when I played,
- 1:30:30Speaker 2: or you're get to a fight or it blows up
- 1:30:32Speaker 2: on the sideline and everyone's like, oh, you can't do that.
- 1:30:34Speaker 2: You have to have more self control, Like listen, what
- 1:30:36Speaker 2: do you want? This is an emotional game, and guys
- 1:30:39Speaker 2: put a lot into it. And by the way, we're
- 1:30:40Speaker 2: laying our bodies on the line, you're risking like your
- 1:30:43Speaker 2: health and like you care. Yes, you get paid a
- 1:30:46Speaker 2: lot of money, but it's important to you. And when
- 1:30:49Speaker 2: you have emotion and you all in on something and
- 1:30:53Speaker 2: it's not going the way you want, sometimes tempers are
- 1:30:56Speaker 2: gonna flare and things are going to be said. And
- 1:30:59Speaker 2: I don't even get into what happens in the locker
- 1:31:01Speaker 2: room on the practice field. Sometime that's okay. Now it's
- 1:31:06Speaker 2: not okay. If it bubbles over and it carries over
- 1:31:08Speaker 2: and it becomes personal, it causes a wedge in the
- 1:31:11Speaker 2: locker room, which obviously it has not. But in the
- 1:31:14Speaker 2: heat of the moment, you let your emotion out, you
- 1:31:18Speaker 2: get it out, you deal with it, and you move
- 1:31:20Speaker 2: on and your teammates and your you know, friends and
- 1:31:24Speaker 2: your you know, working peers, and all the things that
- 1:31:27Speaker 2: go into it, and you move on and going to
- 1:31:28Speaker 2: the next thing. That's part of it, and that's part
- 1:31:31Speaker 2: of playing that it's not a big deal.
- 1:31:33Speaker 5: It's never a big deal.
- 1:31:34Speaker 4: But but here's what it what I would like to though,
- 1:31:37Speaker 4: And I don't know if anybody asked the question.
- 1:31:39Speaker 2: What was it about.
- 1:31:41Speaker 3: This was after the third down where he was wide
- 1:31:44Speaker 3: open and they went to brentsvill st the short on
- 1:31:46Speaker 3: the sticks and then they didn't get the fourth This
- 1:31:48Speaker 3: was right after that possession.
- 1:31:50Speaker 2: Yeah, so he did before the gate.
- 1:31:53Speaker 4: He's got him on the second level and he throws
- 1:31:55Speaker 4: to the left side for a short completion on third
- 1:31:58Speaker 4: down that set him up and fourth and.
- 1:32:00Speaker 3: One wanted to I would assume he want.
- 1:32:02Speaker 4: Okay, and in fairness he was open, and in fairness
- 1:32:06Speaker 4: to Trevor, it ain't exactly like Gabe Davis, you.
- 1:32:09Speaker 2: Know, was a bullet getting to get there either. So
- 1:32:13Speaker 2: I'll just say this. I mean, first of all, this
- 1:32:16Speaker 2: is what receivers do.
- 1:32:18Speaker 3: You want them to want the ball?
- 1:32:19Speaker 4: And you know he learned from you know where he
- 1:32:21Speaker 4: learned from, don't you well?
- 1:32:23Speaker 2: But Pete, I'm not I'm not gonna touch gave Davis
- 1:32:25Speaker 2: right now. I'm gonna go back to when you cover
- 1:32:26Speaker 2: the team. Did you ever hear Keenan, who was never
- 1:32:31Speaker 2: not open say anything?
- 1:32:34Speaker 4: Hey, look, John Osher and myself will swear to this day,
- 1:32:36Speaker 4: and I tell I told Keenan this to his face.
- 1:32:38Speaker 5: And keen is a wide receiver coach now so and he's.
- 1:32:40Speaker 2: A good maybe the best one, the one of the
- 1:32:42Speaker 2: best in the league.
- 1:32:44Speaker 4: And I used to tell him Keenan was happier when
- 1:32:46Speaker 4: he caught eleven for one seventy touchdown than he was
- 1:32:49Speaker 4: when he caught two for fourteen and they won. If
- 1:32:52Speaker 4: they lost, he he takes eleven and the loss, then
- 1:32:55Speaker 4: the two in the win.
- 1:32:56Speaker 2: It's not It's not. Keenan was one of the teammates
- 1:33:00Speaker 2: I've ever had. But Keenan and Jimmy they wanted the ball.
- 1:33:05Speaker 5: And when he went to champ it was meaning in
- 1:33:07Speaker 5: me Sean, and.
- 1:33:10Speaker 2: I'll say it's an offensive linement I've got had it
- 1:33:14Speaker 2: out with quarterbacks. Of course, get rid of it, throw it?
- 1:33:18Speaker 2: What are you doing back there? And they're yelling at us?
- 1:33:20Speaker 2: Attack it hit me time? Why are you getting hit?
- 1:33:22Speaker 2: I mean it's it's emotional out there. So it's a
- 1:33:25Speaker 2: non story now where it becomes a story, and we've
- 1:33:29Speaker 2: seen this in the league, if either one of the
- 1:33:32Speaker 2: parties carries it over to the locker room and it
- 1:33:35Speaker 2: goes on for days and weeks, that's when it becomes
- 1:33:39Speaker 2: because now you have to have other people in the
- 1:33:41Speaker 2: locker room asking questions what's going on as their divide.
- 1:33:45Speaker 5: Josh Allen, it became an issue.
- 1:33:46Speaker 2: He became an issue. But if you just deal with it,
- 1:33:50Speaker 2: like Trevor said, you squashed it, it motion. Okay, We're good.
- 1:33:53Speaker 2: Fact it's non fact. It's not a big deal, all right.
- 1:33:56Speaker 3: For eleven years, dream Finders Homes has been proud to
- 1:33:58Speaker 3: call themselves the official home builder of the Jacksonville Jaguars.
- 1:34:01Speaker 3: Was it dreamfinders Holmes dot Com for all of the
- 1:34:03Speaker 3: available inventory? And Go Jags? Just a couple of minutes
- 1:34:06Speaker 3: left to go? Pete, what was the what was the
- 1:34:08Speaker 3: best game you watched this weekend? Ravens and Bengals.
- 1:34:14Speaker 5: It was fantastic.
- 1:34:16Speaker 4: Up and down the field they went, and they go
- 1:34:17Speaker 4: to overtime and the Ravens give the ball away and
- 1:34:19Speaker 4: overtime on a on a box snap and the Bengals
- 1:34:23Speaker 4: play for their long field goal. By the way, they
- 1:34:25Speaker 4: didn't play to get any more yards and the holder
- 1:34:28Speaker 4: dropped the drop the snap and next play Derrick Henry
- 1:34:31Speaker 4: go They miss it. Derek Henry goes sixty yards, they
- 1:34:34Speaker 4: make a field goal point black and win the game.
- 1:34:36Speaker 4: Now the Bengals are sitting there at one and four.
- 1:34:38Speaker 4: Great game, though Joe Burrow five touchdown passes.
- 1:34:40Speaker 2: I thought Burrow's comment I read I didn't hear it
- 1:34:44Speaker 2: basically saying we are not a championship football team right now.
- 1:34:46Speaker 3: They're one and four.
- 1:34:47Speaker 5: It's true, and he doesn't and he says they not
- 1:34:51Speaker 5: that they can't be. It's just right now, they're not
- 1:34:53Speaker 5: right defensive.
- 1:34:54Speaker 2: And I read something and maybe this was an X
- 1:34:57Speaker 2: so maybe this is just non true. Pete, you'd know
- 1:34:59Speaker 2: or you have a sense that t Higgins might be
- 1:35:03Speaker 2: available at the trade trade Daniel trade deadline because of
- 1:35:06Speaker 2: some friction or something going on there.
- 1:35:09Speaker 4: Well, he has and plus he he has a new
- 1:35:10Speaker 4: he wants a new contract. They haven't you know, they
- 1:35:12Speaker 4: haven't given it to him.
- 1:35:13Speaker 2: They haven't paid him or Chase, Yeah, better pay Chase.
- 1:35:18Speaker 2: He's he's not very good.
- 1:35:20Speaker 3: Is he?
- 1:35:20Speaker 2: Oh?
- 1:35:21Speaker 5: My god?
- 1:35:22Speaker 4: I think Brian Thomas is on his way to be
- 1:35:24Speaker 4: in that kind of player though?
- 1:35:26Speaker 3: Is LSU wide receivers?
- 1:35:27Speaker 2: I mean, how did elis you ever lose Justin Jefferson
- 1:35:32Speaker 2: Jamar Chase? Uh the neighbors?
- 1:35:36Speaker 4: Was Joe Burrow throwing it justin? Think about this was
- 1:35:39Speaker 4: Joe Burrow throwing it Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase and
- 1:35:41Speaker 4: it was Jade Daniels throwing to Brian Thomas.
- 1:35:45Speaker 3: And how they ever lose?
- 1:35:49Speaker 2: I guess, I guess.
- 1:35:51Speaker 5: Remember they won the National that's sure.
- 1:35:52Speaker 2: He never did. But have Jadon Daniels ever lose a game?
- 1:35:55Speaker 3: Texans beat the Bills as well, which is not great
- 1:35:58Speaker 3: for us in the division, But it's up with the back.
- 1:36:00Speaker 5: That was Josh Allen was the receivers were bad.
- 1:36:04Speaker 4: He wasn't good, and they still found themselves with the
- 1:36:06Speaker 4: ball down on the you know, point blank range down
- 1:36:10Speaker 4: three and they couldn't get in after after Stroud fumble,
- 1:36:13Speaker 4: they couldn't get a touchdown and then they played it
- 1:36:15Speaker 4: at the end of the game. They got the ball
- 1:36:17Speaker 4: back with like thirty seconds and through three passes and
- 1:36:20Speaker 4: they llwed him and then they punted and they had
- 1:36:21Speaker 4: a time out and they let him go kick the
- 1:36:22Speaker 4: field goal.
- 1:36:23Speaker 5: Terrible game management.
- 1:36:24Speaker 2: The uh and Josh Allen got beat up, Pete.
- 1:36:30Speaker 4: But the Texans haven't been as good as I thought
- 1:36:32Speaker 4: they would be.
- 1:36:34Speaker 5: Just yet.
- 1:36:35Speaker 3: Just yet.
- 1:36:36Speaker 2: Well they are four and one. They got a nice
- 1:36:37Speaker 2: little but.
- 1:36:38Speaker 5: They played a lot. Think about it. Jacksonville probably should
- 1:36:40Speaker 5: have beat him, could have lost yesterday.
- 1:36:44Speaker 2: They and Bears took him to the mat to the end.
- 1:36:47Speaker 5: Right, they haven't.
- 1:36:48Speaker 4: I thought this was gonna be a year where they
- 1:36:49Speaker 4: became dynamic on offense and hasn't worked out that way.
- 1:36:52Speaker 2: And the Colts took him to the end too. Yeah,
- 1:36:55Speaker 2: they've They've won a lot of close games. Give them credit.
- 1:36:58Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Cowboy is wanted at one am so over
- 1:37:02Speaker 3: the Steelers.
