  Speaker 1: And we're two and oh going back to the US

  Speaker 1: right out, right out.
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: I mean a lot of things we could talk about defense, obviously,
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: that first half was tremendous offense, the way to go
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: down ninety three or two yard drive ten whatever.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: You get my stob right there, I tell you what

  Speaker 3: strengthen numbers. Right when someone is not feeling their best,
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: somebody else rallies and the team rallies around them. That's
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: what you did today. And that's what you did, all right.

  Speaker 4: Welcome to jag Zam this Wednesday, presented by Jet Home Loans,
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: Kai Nannie Stevens, Ryan Sexton.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: John Ozier.
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: We are back in studio. We're all happy to be
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: back home after a couple of weeks in England and
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: coming back to and l feels pretty good.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: Brian. Yeah, I'll tell you what.
• 1:48
  Speaker 5: Uh, the mood on the plane, the mood of the
• 1:51
  Speaker 5: franchise at one and two, coming off that really bad
• 1:55
  Speaker 5: loss to the Texans. You know, I won't to say
• 1:58
  Speaker 5: Cloud went within London, but they didn't feel really good.
• 2:01
  Speaker 5: And to have the absolute reverse come back with them,
• 2:05
  Speaker 5: the sunshine, even though it was dark weight, came back.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 2:07
  Speaker 5: It's It's a good way to get ready for an
• 2:09
  Speaker 5: important game on Sunday against the Colts.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 2:11
  Speaker 6: Doug was asked after the game about uh pumping his
• 2:14
  Speaker 6: fists to the crowd and he said, I if we
• 2:16
  Speaker 6: win like that, I always pump my fist. He should
• 2:19
  Speaker 6: to me, it's the best win he's had here.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: It was a good one.
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: I know we would have been excited to split that
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: series one and one, but we come back to and O.
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: So things are good here, so right for our big
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: things this week, and big thing number one is cheers,
• 2:30
  Speaker 4: because it was a pretty good trip over the pond,
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: obviously coming back with two wins. Now they're three and two.
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: Josh Allen talked about what the team was able to
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: get done and what they're looking like now.
• 2:40
  Speaker 6: This was a complete win.
• 2:42
  Speaker 7: You know, the offensively, defensively, special teams. You know, NFL
• 2:47
  Speaker 7: is a week the week basis, you know, you n
• 2:49
  Speaker 7: you never know what to expect. Heck, we didn't expect
• 2:52
  Speaker 7: to lose to the Texans, but we didn't prepare the
• 2:55
  Speaker 7: right way, and those are the out comes up what happened.
• 2:58
  Speaker 7: When you prepare the right way, when you have the mindset,
• 3:01
  Speaker 7: when you have the confidence going into each game that
• 3:03
  Speaker 7: you can dominate each matchup, you play with a cent
• 3:06
  Speaker 7: of slagger, and today we had that slag offensively, defensive,
• 3:09
  Speaker 7: special teams. And kudos to everybody, the coaching staff as
• 3:12
  Speaker 7: well for not losing their cool. Everybody keeping sane and
• 3:16
  Speaker 7: just knowing that we're gonna win this game.
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: But we all got to stay in it.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: John.
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: It was a big win because of the opponent they beat,
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: but also because of the way they did it, because
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: it was a full team effort and we saw everybody
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: kind of doing what they needed to do well.
• 3:29
  Speaker 6: I thought, I haven't asked Doug this, but that felt
• 3:35
  Speaker 6: like sort of an old NFC East type game, if
• 3:39
  Speaker 6: you will. They had to fight for it, they had
• 3:42
  Speaker 6: to scrap for it. I've said multiple times since that game.
• 3:45
  Speaker 6: I thought the most impressive thing was that I didn't
• 3:49
  Speaker 6: think they played great in spots. They gave away a
• 3:52
  Speaker 6: lot of points. The defense I thought played great, I
• 3:57
  Speaker 6: mean wrong, but offensively you had four to seventy four
• 3:59
  Speaker 6: of it, you know, mistakes, fumbles and yet leaving things
• 4:06
  Speaker 6: on the field, they still won. And then in crunch time,
• 4:09
  Speaker 6: the last seventeen minutes of that game, or so, a
• 4:12
  Speaker 6: seventeen yard I mean a seventeen play driver you get nothing,
• 4:15
  Speaker 6: and then two drives where you stick it down their throat.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: And if you had.
• 4:19
  Speaker 6: Told me last Wednesday they were going to stick it
• 4:21
  Speaker 6: down the Bill's throat in the fourth quarter, I told
• 4:23
  Speaker 6: you were nuts.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: Well that was the most that they could do it.
• 4:25
  Speaker 6: And so I thought it was a game where they
• 4:28
  Speaker 6: enforced their will and they won a street fight against
• 4:33
  Speaker 6: a really good team. And again I think it's whatever
• 4:38
  Speaker 6: the comebacks were late last season.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: To me, it was the best win Dougs had here.
• 4:41
  Speaker 5: Well, they had an answer, right, I mean, and previous
• 4:43
  Speaker 5: Jaguars teams would not have had an answer in the
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: fourth quarter. And yet every time second half starting forward,
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: as the Bills seemed to be getting momentum, kai the
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: Jaguars were able to take it off their seven eight
• 4:55
  Speaker 5: They're seven.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: They never got pin deep.
• 4:57
  Speaker 5: There wasn't a turnover deep in their own territory that
• 5:00
  Speaker 5: lipped the field. And then as we saw the two
• 5:02
  Speaker 5: touchdown drives with Travy Ctn topping it off, you mentioned
• 5:06
  Speaker 5: an old AFC or part of the NFC East type feel.
• 5:10
  Speaker 5: I didn't think the Jaguars offensive line played that well. Now,
• 5:13
  Speaker 5: part of it was they had to shuffle things when
• 5:14
  Speaker 5: Walker Little went down, and part of it is the
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: fact that the Bills defensive line is really good. Oliver
• 5:20
  Speaker 5: is a hugely disruptive force and gave everybody problems, and
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: yet he didn't win the game.
• 5:27
  Speaker 6: I guess what I meant. I certainly didn't mean the
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: defensive line dominated. But again, the answer part the fact
• 5:36
  Speaker 6: that it felt like a fight. Then no matter what happened.
• 5:39
  Speaker 6: They were going to figure out a way. It felt
• 5:41
  Speaker 6: like a postseason game in that sense where somebody's the postseason.
• 5:44
  Speaker 6: He got injuries, he got things going nuts, and you
• 5:47
  Speaker 6: just figure out a way to make a play to win.
• 5:50
  Speaker 6: They won big games last year, but that's the best
• 5:53
  Speaker 6: opponent they've eaten since I been here, and the way
• 5:55
  Speaker 6: they did it, to me was super impressive.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: I think he's really proud of that one.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: He should be.
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: Look what I was was is that they didn't play
• 6:01
  Speaker 5: all that well against a really good defensive front, and
• 6:03
  Speaker 5: yet they still found a way to get things done.
• 6:06
  Speaker 5: Same thing we just heard from Josh Allen. They didn't
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: get that quarterback on the ground yet both Allen and
• 6:11
  Speaker 5: Walker drew a holding penalty, and anytime he dropped back
• 6:14
  Speaker 5: five or seven steps, he had someone in his face.
• 6:16
  Speaker 5: You don't look at the stats and you don't look
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: at the highlights and say, well they really made his
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: day long.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: They did.
• 6:21
  Speaker 5: They harassed him consistently, except with the short drops when
• 6:24
  Speaker 5: he got.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: Rid of the ball quickly.
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: Because this is a team that's scoring thirty plus every week,
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: we have to remember, yeah, they let them score, but
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: this is a team that can score a lot more
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: than that. And also for me, I think some of
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: the big stuff was the resiliency we saw out there,
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: whether it's Terius Williams getting picked on the entire game
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: but then coming up with two of the biggest plays
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: in the game, or even on offense, Traves Ytn having
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: a hard time finding his way in the middle, but
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: he bounces outside later and gets two touchdowns. So I
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: think for me it was nice to see that resiliency
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: because we hadn't seen that earlier in the season when
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: we were getting down and then everybody was mentally down
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: and they weren't coming back. So for me, that was
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: one of the things I was very excited to see.
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: Our second big thing today is going to be feel
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: later by. This is something we've talked about before, but
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: I wanted to bring up again because I know people
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: have questions about it. We go away for two weeks
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: to England and we do not have a buy. This
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: week we're going to be facing off against the Colts.
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: Doug talked about it after the game on Sunday.
• 7:12
  Speaker 8: You know, we're still so early in the season after
• 7:15
  Speaker 8: five games to take the buy this early, and it's
• 7:20
  Speaker 8: a long season. A lot of football left, and so
• 7:22
  Speaker 8: I feel like, if you know, if you can push,
• 7:25
  Speaker 8: if you can push your buy towards the middle of
• 7:27
  Speaker 8: the year, you know, it might benefit you. But I'll
• 7:31
  Speaker 8: do my part, you know, to help our team recover
• 7:34
  Speaker 8: this week coming up, but yet still making sure that
• 7:36
  Speaker 8: they're prepared mentally for the Colts next weekend.
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: Ryan, We'll see if it works out for them, but
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: it seems like it's the way that Doug lakes to
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: see it, at least halfway through the season.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's something that they'll be really appreciative of.
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: If you know, it's funny that if you go back
• 7:50
  Speaker 5: to Sunday and count forward to eleven days, they will
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: have had three games in eleven days with the Colts
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: and the Saints.
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: It's a really big challenge.
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: Then the flip side is is that over the next
• 7:59
  Speaker 5: twenty four day's following the Saints game, they only have
• 8:02
  Speaker 5: one game because of the bye week. So they're gonna
• 8:04
  Speaker 5: put their head down and grind through this thing. And
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: I'm interested, John to see how they feel when they
• 8:10
  Speaker 5: get back.
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: Out on the practice field. Today.
• 8:12
  Speaker 5: They came home, you know, they had Monday and Tuesday
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: without practice.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: They went really light.
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: Do you treat this like a Thursday night schedule right
• 8:19
  Speaker 5: where you basically have a walk through all week long
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: to get ready for the Colts, to ensure that your
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: guys aren't just ready for this Sunday but next Thursday.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know.
• 8:27
  Speaker 6: If you go walk through, it'd be interesting because Doug
• 8:30
  Speaker 6: hadn't given that away as a Sunday night. And my
• 8:34
  Speaker 6: guess is he has a plan, but that he put
• 8:36
  Speaker 6: a lot of thought into it in the off season
• 8:39
  Speaker 6: because it is a challenge. I'm sure his message today
• 8:43
  Speaker 6: it's Wednesday, and I'm sure he's saying, guys, give me
• 8:46
  Speaker 6: eight days and we'll get.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: You through New Orleans and then you can rest.
• 8:51
  Speaker 6: But you got to get through this little segment because
• 8:54
  Speaker 6: it's really important, and think about how you would feel
• 8:56
  Speaker 6: if they would win the next two be five and
• 8:58
  Speaker 6: two come out of ani and that's far head. But
• 9:00
  Speaker 6: all of a sudden, now you're through that, you would
• 9:04
  Speaker 6: I after.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: Houston, no way out a particular that they've had a
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: shot at that. So it's right there for well, let.
• 9:12
  Speaker 5: Me ask you guys, and we obviously didn't play, so
• 9:14
  Speaker 5: it's not an apples to apples comparison.
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: How do you feel right?
• 9:17
  Speaker 5: It's Wednesday. We've been back for two days. I mean,
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: are you back to normal? Are you back into your
• 9:23
  Speaker 5: normal circadian rhythm?
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: To be fair, I'm on like a Brian Sexton scheduler. Well,
• 9:26
  Speaker 4: could be like five forty five this morning, so it
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: was very productive in the morning, which maybe I won't
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: fully switch back because that seems to be.
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: Working for I like that morning schedule.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: You don't want to know what my normal is.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you're normals probably what.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: I mean.
• 9:41
  Speaker 6: No, I'm not quite back yet, and it will be
• 9:46
  Speaker 6: a challenge because the one thing I'm not sure people
• 9:49
  Speaker 6: fully realize.
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: And I hadn't really thought about it time for this
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: game on Sunday.
• 9:53
  Speaker 6: No team's ever got acclimated fully and then come back
• 9:57
  Speaker 6: and tried to do it right. And I would say, well,
• 10:00
  Speaker 6: they'veen playing in London for years and years and years,
• 10:01
  Speaker 6: what are you talking about? But the body clock does
• 10:04
  Speaker 6: get used.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: To it, so this is a new thing that they're
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: trying to do. So I've had people ask me how
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: will they do I don't know.
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we're gonna find out. It is a major storyline we.
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: Touched on our final big thing now and then which
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: is a little bit of that stretch. We are currently
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: in that eleven day stretch where they're gonna play. They
• 10:24
  Speaker 4: played last Sunday, they play this Sunday, and then they'll
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: play on Thursday, and then after that, we only have
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: that one game against the Steelers in twenty four days
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: because the bye week comes after that, so that'll be
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: a bit of a rest.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: I want to talk to you guys a little bit.
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: We talked about this may be in a hard stretch
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: for them, but if they string in three wins together,
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: it's almost like they're getting that momentum and then they're
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: taking a week off. Do you believe in that or
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: do you think the buye can never be coming at
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: a bed.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: I gotta be honest with the mid season.
• 10:46
  Speaker 5: If you were in that momentum surge and you had
• 10:49
  Speaker 5: a bye week to get ready for the best team
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: in football, who comes in here after that?
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: With San Francisco I mean talking.
• 10:54
  Speaker 5: I was at an event last night with Tony Dungee,
• 10:56
  Speaker 5: who was in San Francisco last week for that Cowboys game,
• 10:59
  Speaker 5: and he said, they are absolutely the real deal. They
• 11:02
  Speaker 5: are a downhill running team. If you have that week
• 11:04
  Speaker 5: off before you have to play them. I think everybody
• 11:06
  Speaker 5: involved would appreciate that.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: It gives you a shot.
• 11:09
  Speaker 6: I'm not a huge believer in momentum. Jaguars had none
• 11:15
  Speaker 6: going to London and played great. So it's the next
• 11:18
  Speaker 6: day starting pitcher, right, I mean, that's usually what it is.
• 11:21
  Speaker 6: But if you believe in it, and if they believe
• 11:25
  Speaker 6: they have momentum, more power to them.
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: All right, they're gonna need all those two weeks for
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: the forty nine ers, that's for sure.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: Stay with us.
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: We'll look around the AFC South, see what's going on
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: in the division. On jags am Field Auto Group Jacksonville
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: step up to Luxury Fieldsauto dot Com fans On Tuesday,
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: October twenty fourth, from five to six, you can head
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: the Publics located at Etown Exchange to meet Jacksonville Jaguars
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: players for a special appearance from five to six. Again,
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: that's Publics located at one one two five Etown Parkway
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: here in Jacksonville on Tuesday, Totober twenty fourth, from five
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: to six to meet members up the Jaguars. We're back
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: here on jag Zam on this Wednesday, we get prepared
• 12:06
  Speaker 4: to face off against the Colts again. The second time
• 12:08
  Speaker 4: this season, and we'll get into that matchup a little
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: more tomorrow, but we want to look around the AFC
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: South and see what's going on and keep you guys
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: abreast of the situation and what everybody's doing. And when
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: the Colts come to town, it's gonna be Minshew mania
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: again as it returns to Jacksonville this week. Also, we're
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: gonna talk about each of these a little bit individually.
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: The Titans are having some troubles right now. They fell
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: to the Colts last week, and it feels like every
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: other week we talk about them, it's either they've gotten
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: back together or they're, you know, back to missing something
• 12:35
  Speaker 4: and then c J. Stroud has not thrown an interception
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: still to this point. They lost last week to the Falcons,
• 12:40
  Speaker 4: which helps us out a little bit. But c J.
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: Stroud is gonna be trouble for the however long he plays,
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: because it's gonna be troublesome for sure. When we look
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: at Minchew, I were a virtue you guys, cause you
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: guys were here for all of it. What is he
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: able to bring to that team? Is able to get
• 12:56
  Speaker 4: them a couple more wins? And will he be able
• 12:58
  Speaker 4: to do that on Sunday.
• 12:59
  Speaker 5: Well, he seems to have this pension for the play
• 13:01
  Speaker 5: that you don't expect. He's not fast, but he gets
• 13:04
  Speaker 5: out of the pocket and he makes risky throws. But
• 13:07
  Speaker 5: so far he hasn't thrown an interception this year, and
• 13:09
  Speaker 5: his completion percentage is north of I think seventy percent
• 13:12
  Speaker 5: in the limited time. Really, what's interesting about this is,
• 13:16
  Speaker 5: I don't think it's Gardner Minshew that you worry about.
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: It's the fact that they have got a running game
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: with Zach Moss and the return of Jonathan Taylor that
• 13:22
  Speaker 5: will make everything easy for him if he doesn't have
• 13:26
  Speaker 5: to worry about guys pinning their ears back. I mean,
• 13:29
  Speaker 5: I think he has a chance to be very effective
• 13:31
  Speaker 5: because that Colt's running game. The other thing it's done
• 13:34
  Speaker 5: is it's rejuvenated in an offensive line that had sort
• 13:36
  Speaker 5: of lost its personality John I mean a few years
• 13:38
  Speaker 5: ago that group led by Quentin Nelson was the best
• 13:41
  Speaker 5: offensive line in football kind of fell off. Now with
• 13:44
  Speaker 5: two running backs that are capable of making the house
• 13:46
  Speaker 5: call from anywhere on the field, they played really well
• 13:49
  Speaker 5: last week against the Titans, and the Titans front is
• 13:51
  Speaker 5: no slouch.
• 13:52
  Speaker 6: Yeah, Gardner does scare me in this game, not because
• 13:54
  Speaker 6: of a revenge thing or whatever. But over the course
• 13:58
  Speaker 6: of ten games, I believe Gardner is probably a five
• 14:01
  Speaker 6: hundred quarterback. But for one game he's really dangerous because
• 14:07
  Speaker 6: he gets outside the pocket. He'll make weird decisions, but
• 14:12
  Speaker 6: good decisions. He'll go off script, and he's really accurate,
• 14:18
  Speaker 6: really all over the field, is really accurate. What he
• 14:20
  Speaker 6: doesn't have is the arm strength to make the huge
• 14:24
  Speaker 6: chunk throw twenty five yards downfield.
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: And they don't have the receiver to do it. Yea,
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: if it's.
• 14:28
  Speaker 6: Third and eleven, you've got to get him in situations
• 14:31
  Speaker 6: that he's making throws he doesn't like to make.
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: Then you can get him a little bit. But on
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: one drive, if you're up by.
• 14:39
  Speaker 6: Four on this guy with two minutes left, he's gonna
• 14:42
  Speaker 6: have three weird plays and all of a sudden he's
• 14:45
  Speaker 6: gonna be on your twenty with a chance to win
• 14:46
  Speaker 6: the game. So to me, Brian, they didn't. I don't
• 14:49
  Speaker 6: think they trailed in London. The Jaguars, if I recall, well,
• 14:53
  Speaker 6: that's first time they've done that Doug Peter Snare are
• 14:55
  Speaker 6: two straight games they need to get up on this team.
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: Play as well, tackle as well. They tackled really well
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: on Sunday. Tackle the Colts as well.
• 15:04
  Speaker 6: Get a lead, and then you've got a chance to
• 15:07
  Speaker 6: put this team in situations they don't want to be.
• 15:08
  Speaker 6: But don't let the Colts be even with you in
• 15:11
  Speaker 6: the second half because then they're playing their own game.
• 15:13
  Speaker 5: Maybe I'm wrong, but I mean Minshew in his rookie
• 15:17
  Speaker 5: season in twenty nineteen he was unpredictable. But when we
• 15:21
  Speaker 5: last saw him here, what was he one to seven
• 15:23
  Speaker 5: as a starting quarterback.
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's good team.
• 15:26
  Speaker 5: He was hon Well, no, I'm not taking that away,
• 15:28
  Speaker 5: but he didn't do anything to take the team over
• 15:30
  Speaker 5: the top. Now, he didn't do anything over the course
• 15:32
  Speaker 5: of those games. And the Minshew many was really about
• 15:34
  Speaker 5: twenty nineteen and the cult of personality that goes with him.
• 15:37
  Speaker 5: I mean, he's that fun guy that people like. If
• 15:41
  Speaker 5: the Colts are going to win on Sunday, they're going
• 15:43
  Speaker 5: to do it because the Jaguars will be unable to
• 15:45
  Speaker 5: stop their running game. They don't have a down the field,
• 15:48
  Speaker 5: you know, field stretching kind of threat. This should not
• 15:51
  Speaker 5: be a game where Gardner Minshew wins it should be
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: the kind of game where if the Jaguars stopped the run,
• 15:55
  Speaker 5: they win.
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: Elsewhere in the division, we want to talk a little bit,
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: we'll talk a little bit about that and this or that.
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: But the Titans are just like week by week we
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: don't really know what we're getting out of them, and
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: they're always scary, of course, But are they gonna come
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: back and kind of find their personality? Do we think
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: john at this point or is.
• 16:11
  Speaker 6: It pretty theorizing? Because I have not had a chance
• 16:13
  Speaker 6: to really dig into the Titans, but I talked to
• 16:17
  Speaker 6: one person up there, to people who've seen them a
• 16:21
  Speaker 6: little bit, they feel like a team. I think they're
• 16:25
  Speaker 6: really disciplined and really well coached. They know how Rabel
• 16:27
  Speaker 6: likes to play. It feels like that has gotten them
• 16:31
  Speaker 6: some good wins this year. It has kept them close.
• 16:33
  Speaker 6: I wonder how they're gonna be week six, week seven.
• 16:37
  Speaker 6: Once teams get film on all teams, sometimes teams.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: Slide at that point.
• 16:42
  Speaker 6: I wonder if the Titans have enough left to sort
• 16:45
  Speaker 6: of get through that mid season time when teams figure
• 16:49
  Speaker 6: you out and then you adapt. I don't know the
• 16:54
  Speaker 6: answer to that, but sometimes teams that are older, hanging
• 16:57
  Speaker 6: on will start with, well, the Jaguars, remember, and Tom's
• 17:00
  Speaker 6: last season had a really good start and then it
• 17:03
  Speaker 6: just sort of fell apart.
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: Is that what the Titans are now?
• 17:06
  Speaker 6: I don't know, but I think it's a possibility. But again,
• 17:11
  Speaker 6: Bryan been around this Titans team, Well, you still have
• 17:15
  Speaker 6: a lot of respect for what they.
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: Get to do.
• 17:16
  Speaker 6: Count them out until they're out, but I wonder how
• 17:19
  Speaker 6: they're gonna get through the next two months.
• 17:21
  Speaker 5: It's a good front in Indianapolis. But Derrick Henry on
• 17:24
  Speaker 5: fourth and one, you're betting on Derrick Henry, right, he
• 17:27
  Speaker 5: couldn't get fourth and one.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: And that's kind of what I mean.
• 17:29
  Speaker 6: Yeah, he had at figured out where the stuff they
• 17:33
  Speaker 6: count on works anymore.
• 17:34
  Speaker 5: Part of it is their offensive line, right They've got
• 17:37
  Speaker 5: four new starters on the offensive line. But Ryan Tannehill,
• 17:39
  Speaker 5: we know was an effective quarterback when Derrick Henry was
• 17:43
  Speaker 5: that incredible threat. You had to account for Henry with
• 17:47
  Speaker 5: an extra man near the line of scrimmage, and the
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: Tannehill was willing to go downfield. Right now, the whole
• 17:51
  Speaker 5: thing looks off because Dereck Henry isn't Dereck Henry and
• 17:54
  Speaker 5: Ryan Tannehill hasn't changed. He's still Ryan Tannehill. Their defense
• 17:57
  Speaker 5: is good. They will have games where Derek Henry gets going.
• 18:01
  Speaker 5: But I've heard whispers that, you know, perhaps they'll try
• 18:04
  Speaker 5: to move Derrick Henry before the season's over to a contender.
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: So you never know.
• 18:09
  Speaker 5: They've got a young running back they like, maybe, you know,
• 18:12
  Speaker 5: Derrick Henry just doesn't. He didn't look like Derrick Henry
• 18:15
  Speaker 5: last year. He doesn't look like Derrick Henry now. And
• 18:18
  Speaker 5: he said, what ten thousand carries in the last five
• 18:20
  Speaker 5: or six years. I mean, at some point, those big backs,
• 18:23
  Speaker 5: they were it out as far.
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: As the Texans go. We talk about CJ. Stroud when
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: he was here, he showed out for sure. He still
• 18:30
  Speaker 4: hasn't throw an interception. Is he gonna have one of
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: those days? Or do we think he's just going to
• 18:33
  Speaker 4: continue this until he's already at a record pace at
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: this point.
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, yeah, he's a rookie.
• 18:39
  Speaker 5: At some point, at some point he's going to try
• 18:41
  Speaker 5: to force it and make a play. He's another guy
• 18:43
  Speaker 5: that has one threat down the field, Collins, and that's it.
• 18:46
  Speaker 5: So at some point he'll try they'll be behind and
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: he'll try to force it in somewhere where it doesn't belong.
• 18:51
  Speaker 5: I mean, at some point he'll get frustrated, but he's
• 18:53
  Speaker 5: a really mature kid.
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 18:55
  Speaker 6: I think what's obvious with the Texans is right now
• 18:58
  Speaker 6: he's playing really well Stroud.
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: It's got an to.
• 19:00
  Speaker 6: Two and three, but they're not a mature roster around him.
• 19:06
  Speaker 6: So even when he's playing well, they're gonna have games
• 19:08
  Speaker 6: like last week where they lose to the Falcons in
• 19:10
  Speaker 6: a game they could have won. Once they get mature
• 19:13
  Speaker 6: another year, it may happen this year. You know, the
• 19:17
  Speaker 6: Jags last year came out of sort of nowhere. The
• 19:19
  Speaker 6: Texans feel like this team did early last year. I
• 19:23
  Speaker 6: don't think it's their year yet, but once they add
• 19:25
  Speaker 6: a couple of pieces around him, they're dangerous.
• 19:27
  Speaker 5: I'd like to see them win enough games to not
• 19:28
  Speaker 5: being the running for Marvin Harrison junior.
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: That would be nice as Ohio State.
• 19:34
  Speaker 5: Yeah, let's win enough Texans so that you don't give
• 19:36
  Speaker 5: him because if that happens, watch.
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: Out all right, say with us, we're gonna go over
• 19:39
  Speaker 4: this or that for what we got going on this week?
• 19:42
  Speaker 4: Coming up next on Jack's I Am For ten years,

• 20:16
  Speaker 4: So we're gonna go over are this or that's for
• 20:18
  Speaker 4: this week? Bryan? What are you looking at them?
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: Colts are Titans?
• 20:20
  Speaker 5: Who is the Jaguars biggest threat to win the division?
• 20:24
  Speaker 5: I don't think the Texans are. I don't think this
• 20:26
  Speaker 5: is their year. They didn't go all in on free agency.
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: Like the Jaguars did last year. I don't think they have
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: their pieces. I'm not sure the Colts have the quarterback situation.
• 20:36
  Speaker 5: I mean, they have the running game and they're gonna
• 20:37
  Speaker 5: win some games and they're gonna you know, And I don't.
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: Believe in the Titans.
• 20:41
  Speaker 5: I've said that since since we started this show. So
• 20:44
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna say it's the Colts because I think with
• 20:47
  Speaker 5: those two running backs and that offensive line, Gardner Minshew
• 20:50
  Speaker 5: can be an efficient quarterback until Anthony Richardson comes back,
• 20:53
  Speaker 5: and Richardson was averaging five point seven per carry. And
• 20:57
  Speaker 5: I mean they can make it dangerous on you. If
• 20:59
  Speaker 5: you have a screw up like they did against Houston,
• 21:02
  Speaker 5: the Colts can catch you.
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: So I think it's the Colts.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I sort of agree.
• 21:08
  Speaker 6: I think it's a real opportunity for this team, meaning
• 21:10
  Speaker 6: the Jaguars. They haven't been in this situation. I was
• 21:15
  Speaker 6: trying to remember the last time they had been a
• 21:17
  Speaker 6: home favored in the division this early with a chance
• 21:21
  Speaker 6: to sort of take control of the division. They were
• 21:24
  Speaker 6: a home favor against the Titans last year and won
• 21:27
  Speaker 6: the division a tight game. But this is one of
• 21:29
  Speaker 6: those games that division champions. If you're going to be
• 21:33
  Speaker 6: the team that goes, you beat the Colts and put
• 21:37
  Speaker 6: the division in the rear view right now. So it's
• 21:40
  Speaker 6: a real chance to be obviously up on the Colts
• 21:42
  Speaker 6: by a sweep and then have the lead. I think
• 21:47
  Speaker 6: if you had told anybody that, hey, after you beat Houston,
• 21:50
  Speaker 6: you'll have a chance to be alone in first place
• 21:53
  Speaker 6: in the division after six games, Wow, you'll take it.
• 21:55
  Speaker 6: So this is their opportunity to you win this, Brian,
• 21:58
  Speaker 6: And it feels like the first six weeks were okay. Yeah,
• 22:02
  Speaker 6: no matter what happened against Houston, you feel like, okay,
• 22:04
  Speaker 6: we got it done.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: We're fourign two clear first place.
• 22:09
  Speaker 5: I ain't a big one or you've equaled things out
• 22:11
  Speaker 5: right because you lost one you weren't supposed to and
• 22:13
  Speaker 5: you won one you weren't supposed to because people didn't
• 22:15
  Speaker 5: see the Jaguars beating the Bills in London. So if
• 22:18
  Speaker 5: you get through this one, you're in great check.
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: I think I'm with you, John in the sense that
• 22:22
  Speaker 4: if they lose on Sunday to the Cults, that would
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: give me much more concern. I think going forward where
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: you don't have the tiebreaker on your side, and that
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: would be a little more concerning to me.
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: You'd still be okay because you're even.
• 22:33
  Speaker 6: I mean, it's a disaster to lose this game because
• 22:35
  Speaker 6: you've already beaten them.
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm saying you want to lose it, but it's
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: not like oh okuess, we got swept, now we're behind.
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: It just means you're.
• 22:43
  Speaker 6: You're probably even with most of the division at that point,
• 22:46
  Speaker 6: but it's a chance to go in and have a
• 22:49
  Speaker 6: leg up.
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: You want that.
• 22:51
  Speaker 4: Mike Verbel always scares me. So I'm never going to
• 22:52
  Speaker 4: entirely be cool with the Titans. But that's a concern. Well,
• 22:55
  Speaker 4: guess we'll end up seeing where things end up at
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: the end of the year. John, what's your this or
• 22:59
  Speaker 4: that for us this week?
• 23:00
  Speaker 6: Well, the Jaguars have beating the Colts eight straight times
• 23:03
  Speaker 6: at home. I think everybody knows that one of those
• 23:06
  Speaker 6: games was in London seven here is that good or bad?
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: And I kind of.
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: Laughed at myself doing this question because I don't really care.
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: I'm not a big doesn't care guys.
• 23:17
  Speaker 6: I mean, I don't really think that this kind of
• 23:20
  Speaker 6: thing usually plays into very much.
• 23:22
  Speaker 5: Eight years ago was a completely different team. They aren't
• 23:24
  Speaker 5: the same players.
• 23:25
  Speaker 6: Right, It's tough to compare, But there is something to
• 23:28
  Speaker 6: the way the Jaguars, even when they were bad, they
• 23:32
  Speaker 6: beat the Colts bad a couple of times when the
• 23:34
  Speaker 6: Colts were pretty good.
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: I do think that.
• 23:41
  Speaker 6: Those streaks if the other team gets up, meaning if
• 23:45
  Speaker 6: the Colts get up on Sunday and are ahead in
• 23:49
  Speaker 6: the first quarter, I think street goes out the window.
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: If the Jaguars get up by ten, then all of
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: a sudden, the Colts in the sidelines. You've heard it
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: all week.
• 23:57
  Speaker 6: Then maybe there is something where they say, well, maybe
• 24:00
  Speaker 6: we just can't win here. I don't think it'll be
• 24:05
  Speaker 6: I think it's better for the Tags to have won
• 24:07
  Speaker 6: eighth straight, but I think.
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: It's a bad thing.
• 24:09
  Speaker 5: This is where I think that Gardner Minshew is a
• 24:12
  Speaker 5: positive for the Colts because he ain't care. He was
• 24:14
  Speaker 5: the quarterback in twenty twenty when the Jaguars beat the
• 24:17
  Speaker 5: Colts led by Philip Rivers. They were a playoff team
• 24:19
  Speaker 5: that year. He beat them. He was nineteen of twenty
• 24:22
  Speaker 5: that day and through two touchdown passes, he was highly
• 24:25
  Speaker 5: efficient at.
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: A very good game.
• 24:26
  Speaker 5: He is going to come in here with the hair
• 24:28
  Speaker 5: flowing and the swagger. H't to worry about how many
• 24:31
  Speaker 5: games those Colts lost because he was in Philly or
• 24:34
  Speaker 5: he was here. He didn't care at all. I don't
• 24:37
  Speaker 5: know whether it's good or bad. I just know that
• 24:39
  Speaker 5: it exists for me. I enjoy the fact that it
• 24:42
  Speaker 5: bothers Ersa Jim Ersey so much that you know, he
• 24:44
  Speaker 5: stands in front of his plane with that silly had
• 24:46
  Speaker 5: on and talks about you know, Colts fans and Colts
• 24:50
  Speaker 5: Nation and all. I love that. I love how mad
• 24:52
  Speaker 5: he was. They came in here at the end of
• 24:54
  Speaker 5: the twenty two season needing to win to go to
• 24:57
  Speaker 5: the playoffs. That's all they do was beat a team
• 24:59
  Speaker 5: on a pack coach right with a rookie quarterback that
• 25:02
  Speaker 5: was going nowhere, and these guys just punked them like
• 25:06
  Speaker 5: they had Peyton Manning at quarterback, and maybe they did.
• 25:08
  Speaker 5: Maybe they had their version of Peyton Manning in Trevor Lawrence.
• 25:11
  Speaker 5: And I like a good rivalry. I like the little
• 25:14
  Speaker 5: hatred's too strong of but we're better like a little dislike.
• 25:16
  Speaker 5: And I like the fact that these two teams don't
• 25:19
  Speaker 5: like each other and that they have lost here in
• 25:21
  Speaker 5: perpetuity and that we can tweak them. That makes it fun.
• 25:24
  Speaker 6: A great stat Reggie Wayne was still playing last time
• 25:27
  Speaker 6: they won, and he's in a second.
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: Years, which is amazing.
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: So a good times.
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: Let's hope that streak continues this or that this week
• 25:34
  Speaker 4: is going to be about the Colts game and the
• 25:36
  Speaker 4: Saints game. We always know those short weeks for Thursday
• 25:38
  Speaker 4: night football are tough, but this is the first week
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: back from London after we spent over ten days there,
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: So which one of those do you think is a
• 25:45
  Speaker 4: tougher game. For me, normally I go Thursday night football,
• 25:47
  Speaker 4: but I think this week is going to be a
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: little bit weird. No one stayed over there that long
• 25:51
  Speaker 4: in London and played two games before. This will be
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: the first week back. I don't think they will lose
• 25:55
  Speaker 4: either of them, but I think this one might be
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: a little tighter than we expect, just because it is
• 26:00
  Speaker 4: division opponent and kind of getting your sea legs back
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: now that we're back in Florida.
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: Jacks, you've never won in New Orleans never. Never.
• 26:06
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's tough to go on the road on a Thursday.
• 26:08
  Speaker 6: I mean, I'm not looking ahead guy and all that.
• 26:11
  Speaker 6: If I had to pick one that's more concerning, I
• 26:14
  Speaker 6: would say it's going on the road in a short week.
• 26:17
  Speaker 6: It gets team with a really good defense, the Saints.
• 26:20
  Speaker 6: That said, I think the Colts game is gonna be
• 26:21
  Speaker 6: a fourth quarter game. So I think I'm both concerned.
• 26:24
  Speaker 4: All Right, I guess we'll have to see.
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: Stay with us.
• 26:26

  Speaker 1: John?

  Speaker 6: You know, I think the uh A, I've got Darius

• 27:16
  Speaker 1: Local kid who has really made a much bigger impact
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: this year than he did last year.
• 27:21
  Speaker 6: I mean, he's made two big plays in London. Uh
• 27:24
  Speaker 6: maybe he wants to play with there all the time.
• 27:27
  Speaker 5: I'm really interested in this Colts team, you know, I mean,
• 27:29
  Speaker 5: just tweak the owner because it's fun. But the reality
• 27:32
  Speaker 5: of it is is that they found a way to
• 27:33
  Speaker 5: get Jonathan Taylor unto contract and early on, you know,
• 27:36
  Speaker 5: and then he was very you know vocal in saying,
• 27:39
  Speaker 5: you know, talking about not doing a deal, and yet
• 27:43
  Speaker 5: he found a way to strengthen his football team and
• 27:45
  Speaker 5: Jonathan Taylor certainly does that. That'll keep that defense fresh.
• 27:48
  Speaker 5: I mean, they come in as a real threat on Sunday.
• 27:51
  Speaker 4: Should be interesting because the Jags run defense has been
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: one of the best in the league so far this season,
• 27:55
  Speaker 4: so that will certainly be a tough matchup for them.
• 27:57

• 27:59
