Speaker 1: Celebrating twenty five years of Jaguar's football. My pleasure to
Speaker 1: announce that the membership has selected Jack Lee. It is Thursday,
Speaker 1: November one. This is Jaguars Happy Hours and now the
Speaker 1: Almond brother. Nobody talks about Shane Pace. Is that like
Speaker 1: the fifth Beatle six beetle. Welcome in Jaguars Happy Hour,
Speaker 1: j Shadrick, Jeff Lock and Leon Sarcy. Jacks Titans coming up,
Speaker 1: Big sirs, what's up? I'm good, glad to be here,
Speaker 1: Good to see you. I'm glad to be here. Glad
Speaker 1: welcome me back. Every week. We're glad to have you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we're not welcoming you back. You're here every week. You're
Speaker 1: on the team. You know my my contract is weekly renewable.
Speaker 1: We league performance. A lot of players they need that
Speaker 1: contract as well. If it was that way in the
Speaker 1: National Football out of work this week, let's get to over.
Speaker 1: There'll be some Jaguars out of work this week discussing
Speaker 1: on this program tonight. The Jacks Titans preview coming up.
Speaker 1: I gotta stop the run, well, duh. I balanced offense
Speaker 1: would be nice. It didn't happen last week. And the
Speaker 1: NFC South preview that's all coming up the Dug Moron
Speaker 1: Show coming up at five o'clock tonight. We'll hear from
Speaker 1: the Jaguars head coach a little bit later. Let's start
Speaker 1: with the run defense. Jaguars defensive coordinator Todd Wash speaking
Speaker 1: with the media today at t I A A Bank Field.
Speaker 1: The last two weeks they've given up nearly five hundred
Speaker 1: yards rushing on the ground. Todd Wash today, how do
Speaker 1: they fix it? You know, in our system, we're an
Speaker 1: attack front. So it's not like we sit and try
Speaker 1: to cover up lineman and keep them off the UM
Speaker 1: the second level UM. So within our system, that's not
Speaker 1: what we do. Some systems they do UM. But for us,
Speaker 1: you know, we're a tax system and then when you
Speaker 1: get on the block, you've got to get off a block.
Speaker 1: Is basically the way our system is built. From the
Speaker 1: front seven and nickel or the front eight and base.
Speaker 1: There have been some weeks this year where they've shut
Speaker 1: down some pretty good running backs three weeks in a row,
Speaker 1: and then they went to London and Carlos Hide and
Speaker 1: the Texans ran all over them there. They had a
Speaker 1: week off to think about it, guys, and then they
Speaker 1: come back after that against Indian two sixty four last week,
Speaker 1: three different two yard games against this Jaguars defense. Is
Speaker 1: this a Is it fixable? And how do you fix it?
Speaker 1: If it is? I've always believed that stopping the run
Speaker 1: is not that difficult. I want to say, not that
Speaker 1: difficult from a from a scheme standpoint. You can always
Speaker 1: outnumber the opponent in the box and commit stop and run,
Speaker 1: which is what the Jaguars have done in these games,
Speaker 1: but haven't been able to stop the run on. Uh,
Speaker 1: stopping runner has never been a talent issue in my book.
Speaker 1: It's a commitment. It's a toughness issue, and uh, the
Speaker 1: Jaguars right now aren't playing very tough defensively. That's two
Speaker 1: weeks in a row, and Uh, the only way that
Speaker 1: you can stop the run is is is to be
Speaker 1: committed to it and to get your best players to
Speaker 1: play better than what they played this past game. Pretty simple. Yeah.
Speaker 1: You know what, at at one particular point in the
Speaker 1: week is there's no drill you can do, There's no
Speaker 1: amount of practice that you can have. It just it
Speaker 1: just comes to a point where the individual matchups, you
Speaker 1: say to yourself as a player, I'm gonna whoop you,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna whoop you. I'm gonna whoop you. And if
Speaker 1: you've got enough but whippings going on, eventually you end
Speaker 1: up your game plan to stop the run works. Okay,
Speaker 1: when the butt whippings are increased on your side and
Speaker 1: decreased on that side, more than likely you're going to
Speaker 1: win football game on the scores, not whole. It's not
Speaker 1: the they want to buy a large margin, large margin. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, it just comes down to will you know
Speaker 1: you decide in your mind, as a as a one
Speaker 1: of three or five or seven or nine tech D
Speaker 1: that you're just not gonna get blocked. Now, it's gonna
Speaker 1: be situations where you're gonna find yourself. But if you
Speaker 1: commit to not getting blocked nine times, I'll a team
Speaker 1: you won't get blocked. And this team has allowed themselves
Speaker 1: to get blocked for back to back two hundred yards
Speaker 1: Russian And I look at that triangle, and if you
Speaker 1: look at the if you look at the Texas and
Speaker 1: you look at the coast where they were beat the
Speaker 1: one the three in the mic, all right, that's triangle
Speaker 1: right there. If you can, if you could succumb to that,
Speaker 1: if you can win those battles. More than likely you're
Speaker 1: running up the miller, you're going to succeed. Yeah, the
Speaker 1: one the three of the mic what Leon's talking about,
Speaker 1: and they can be different people, uh the mic and
Speaker 1: when they were in a forty six defense it was
Speaker 1: nausey good. In one particular instance this past week, uh
Speaker 1: the three technique and up instances this past week it
Speaker 1: was Clay's campbell Um. It wasn't just Tavin Bryant, although
Speaker 1: Tavin Bryan was a guilty party. Everybody. Everybody had issues
Speaker 1: and and sometimes it's a matter of what when Leon
Speaker 1: talks about about the butt whooping scoreboard. Give an example,
Speaker 1: and you might recall during the game, because we talked
Speaker 1: about it, that Miles Jack was looking for a penalty
Speaker 1: call on Clinton Nelson when Quenton Nelson pulled to his right,
Speaker 1: which he's a left side guard, he pulled to the right,
Speaker 1: and then he engaged Miles Jack and it appeared that
Speaker 1: Miles Jack got kind of pulled down. Well, Miles Jack
Speaker 1: has the angle on Quinton Nelson. Clinton Nelson is paralleling
Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage as he's trying to come around
Speaker 1: to the right side. And Leon knows this. He's been
Speaker 1: a pulling tackle before on counter uh counterplace for an
Speaker 1: offensive lineman. Until you get your pads square to the
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage and moving north and south, you're at
Speaker 1: risk of getting blown up when you're paralleling the line
Speaker 1: of scrimmage because the linebackers are running downhill, which Miles
Speaker 1: Jack was running downhill. When you see fifty six Clinton Nelson, boy,
Speaker 1: by the way, he's a really good player, you might
Speaker 1: want to hit him in the chin on your way
Speaker 1: downhill to the running back so that when you engage
Speaker 1: him by smacking him in the mouth, you can disengage
Speaker 1: him and throw him to the side and then you
Speaker 1: don't get pulled down, you know. So, I mean that
Speaker 1: that's a perfect example that one. Right there. You go
Speaker 1: scoreboard butt whooping for the Colts right there, because Miles
Speaker 1: didn't blow up Clinton Nelson. I mean there's other examples
Speaker 1: that with other guys too. I point that out because
Speaker 1: that one was just one that was very glaring and
Speaker 1: easy to see if people remember that particular play, because
Speaker 1: it wasn't that hard to figure out. And Quinton Nelson
Speaker 1: overaw Leon. We knew he was a good player, man.
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody's that good. No, and that played
Speaker 1: that you were talking about. The competitor advantage goes to
Speaker 1: the mic because when the guard is pulling, he's he's
Speaker 1: he's parallel down the line of script and he's really
Speaker 1: looking straight ahead until he sees the hole to pull up.
Speaker 1: So if Miles Jackson's coming downhill, that was his opportunity
Speaker 1: to hear them in the ear hole and knock him
Speaker 1: off balance. But he did it. I mean you did.
Speaker 1: When you got your shots, you gotta take him. And
Speaker 1: trust me, if your offensive linement and you're going to
Speaker 1: begins the linebacker, you get a shot, you take it.
Speaker 1: So win goes to Nelson on that part. There was
Speaker 1: you know a lot of times when you when you
Speaker 1: have a game and then after the game when you
Speaker 1: watch the film as kind of as a unit, some
Speaker 1: guys on a defense. Because you got eleven guys. Not
Speaker 1: everybody played bad this game. I wouldn't say that everybody
Speaker 1: played bad, but there was there was a lot of
Speaker 1: blame to go around in this game. And I'm talking
Speaker 1: about the the guys that have a role in stopping
Speaker 1: the run, because everybody in the in the front eight
Speaker 1: and I'm talking the box eight, which includes the safeties
Speaker 1: all had a role in this game of not of
Speaker 1: of having what was I would be considered a very
Speaker 1: bad performance against the run. The corners in a couple instances,
Speaker 1: uh didn't do very well either. Uh A J. Boy
Speaker 1: A missed a tackle. Trey Herndon missed a tackle in
Speaker 1: the run game. So this is one in which I
Speaker 1: it doesn't happen very often, but when you watched the film,
Speaker 1: it was it felt worse watching the film than it
Speaker 1: did while you were watching the game. And all eleven
Speaker 1: can take ownership in in the poor performance against the run,
Speaker 1: which is very rare, that doesn't happen very often. And
Speaker 1: I will point this out and me a lot me leon,
Speaker 1: we're talking about this before we came on the air.
Speaker 1: There was not out of effort at the end of
Speaker 1: that game. Is that just because the game was out
Speaker 1: of hand at that point. If I don't care if
Speaker 1: the game, if you're forty points down, that's a matter
Speaker 1: of pride. That is a matter of pride. And when
Speaker 1: you allow an opponent to continue to turn the clock
Speaker 1: and then convert first downs by running the football, that
Speaker 1: that is a matter of pride. And it's embarrassing if
Speaker 1: you don't stop it because you're committing all of your
Speaker 1: resources to it. There's absolutely no reason why you shouldn't
Speaker 1: be able to stop the running that scenario, and they didn't.
Speaker 1: And me been offensive alignment watching the game, and I
Speaker 1: just remember when I played, you know what, the Steelers
Speaker 1: and with the Jaguars, when we had successful run games.
Speaker 1: There's nothing more demoralizing to a defensive front when they
Speaker 1: know you're going to run the ball and you had
Speaker 1: you can't. There's absolutely nothing you can do by it.
Speaker 1: And that's what the Coast did. The Coast have a
Speaker 1: fine offensive and I probably won the best Offensive lines league,
Speaker 1: and they just pound the Jaguars. They said, listen, we're
Speaker 1: not gonna get cute. We're not gonna let Jacoby win
Speaker 1: the game. We're gonna win the game up front. We're
Speaker 1: gonna run this play and there's absolutely nothing you can
Speaker 1: do about and the jag walls didn't try to attempt
Speaker 1: to do anything to stop it. In my opinion, when
Speaker 1: you give up two hundred sixty four yards, you have
Speaker 1: two hundred yards back to back and divisional divisional games
Speaker 1: that you had to win if you wanted to stay,
Speaker 1: you know, in the Hunter, things that's just just a
Speaker 1: lack of effort, in a lack of intensity and a
Speaker 1: lack of desire to be quite honest. And there was
Speaker 1: you know when I when I say everybody had a
Speaker 1: role in, I mean Klaus got reached. He was on
Speaker 1: the ground a lot. Tavin Bryant was out of his gap.
Speaker 1: Even though he was penetrating in the backfield, you still
Speaker 1: have to be in your gap. Uh. Avery Jones was
Speaker 1: didn't have a lot of awareness on the way and play.
Speaker 1: You had Miles Jack who was soft the times, out
Speaker 1: of position at times, No Good who was out of
Speaker 1: position in forty six defense, which that's like one of
Speaker 1: the most simplest positions to play, and all of lineback
Speaker 1: and to go leon with us, the Jaguars played what
Speaker 1: they call called double legal defense or it's a Bears
Speaker 1: forty six defense. You got a head up nose tackle
Speaker 1: which is Avery Jones, and you got Nagy Good who's
Speaker 1: a stack linebacker behind him, and as a as an
Speaker 1: offensive lineman, it is it is it's tough to block
Speaker 1: of forty six defense. You've got everybody in a gap.
Speaker 1: Me you have a let talk about a fortified run
Speaker 1: defensewhere everywhere and the way they play at the nose.
Speaker 1: Tack always plays behind the block of the center and
Speaker 1: then the linebacker fills front side, whichever that is. And
Speaker 1: it's one of the easiest reads in football for a linebacker.
Speaker 1: Mike Singletary when people say, boy, how he was so
Speaker 1: fast reading because he was a one read guy. A
Speaker 1: lot of times when when if the offense went to
Speaker 1: his left, he went left and hit the A gap.
Speaker 1: If the offense went to his right, he went to
Speaker 1: the right to the A gap right in front of him,
Speaker 1: and and Downhill and the Jaguars were in a double
Speaker 1: which is a Bears forty six defense, and they go
Speaker 1: to block to the defensive right. And so now now
Speaker 1: she's got to be in that A gap on play side,
Speaker 1: and Abrey plays on the back side of the center block,
Speaker 1: and now good plays on the back side with Abray Jones.
Speaker 1: That's not good. I mean that that's that's that's that's
Speaker 1: like easy easy. I mean, that's not hard. That one
Speaker 1: right there was like, oh yeah, I got new. I mean,
Speaker 1: this is this conversation is fairly depressing right now. I
Speaker 1: mean there was a pa'll give you another play play
Speaker 1: at the end of the game. First and ten. I
Speaker 1: want to say, Uh, I think the score at that
Speaker 1: time was seven. It was thirty one seven. Seven colts
Speaker 1: come out and they line up and I'm trying to
Speaker 1: get the right perspective here. They've got kind of a
Speaker 1: bunch formation outside the tackle and uh and Gockways lined
Speaker 1: up as a defensive end. But he's got the wide
Speaker 1: receiver fourteen. Um uh rhymes with Rascal because we're actually
Speaker 1: trying to pronounce Pascal. Pascal is a wide receiver. We
Speaker 1: actually were trying to do the pronunciation for the game.
Speaker 1: We said, it reminds me remember Rymes with with Rascal,
Speaker 1: So it's Pascal way to go. And so fourteen is
Speaker 1: a blocking wide receiver, Pascal, and he's lined up just
Speaker 1: outside of the tackle, you know, just outside the defensive end.
Speaker 1: And Leon. If you're a defensive end and your team
Speaker 1: is down thirty one to seven, it's first and ten
Speaker 1: and you've got no tight end, you're outside of the tackle,
Speaker 1: and you've got a wide receiver that's cheated in. He's
Speaker 1: not in a wide alignement, he's just outside of you.
Speaker 1: Where is your attention probably gonna be? Are you gonna
Speaker 1: be thinking pass rush getting in the backfield? Maybe the
Speaker 1: tackle is gonna try and reach you, or are you
Speaker 1: thinking maybe I'll to have a little awareness for Pascal,
Speaker 1: this wide receiver here, because he makes he's cheated in. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's not in his normal line, so that you should
Speaker 1: you be thinking, uh, put your hands on fourteen right
Speaker 1: in front of you and and go way just goes underneath.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, you're down thirty one and seven. It's
Speaker 1: first and ten. They're running out the clock. You have
Speaker 1: to be and stop the run mode. And now's not
Speaker 1: the time to jump into the backfield and think about
Speaker 1: well I might make a play on the back side
Speaker 1: or no, it stopped the run, you know. So I
Speaker 1: mean that's when I say there's a there's a shared responsibility.
Speaker 1: It is a shared responsibility. All right. We've got plenty
Speaker 1: ahead on this matchup. Jaguars defense against the Titans offense
Speaker 1: coming up, and we'll talk a little more of the
Speaker 1: Titans running back of course, Derrick Henry and that offensive
Speaker 1: line in Tennessee as well. We'll get your lee on
Speaker 1: your thoughts on Taylor Lauan coming up in just a
Speaker 1: little bit. We're back in a moment though. We'll pipple
Speaker 1: around to the Jaguars offense. How do they balance things
Speaker 1: up this week in Nashville? Hopefully they will and hopefully
Speaker 1: they can move the ball. It's Jaguars Happy Hour on

Speaker 1: football game Um, you go back and you self evaluate
Speaker 1: yourself and you wish you could have done some things
Speaker 1: different than you did. And that's that's that was a
Speaker 1: case with me this week for sure. And um, you know,
Speaker 1: it's easy to as a player, as a coach, it's
Speaker 1: easy to not self evaluate, self evaluate yourself after wins,
Speaker 1: and you're probably a little bit over to cook yourself
Speaker 1: after losses. It's just the way we're wired. But there
Speaker 1: are some things I wish I would have gone different there,
Speaker 1: especially early in the second half, that you know, you
Speaker 1: go back and learn from and you discuss it and
Speaker 1: and um, you move forward, and that's that's all you
Speaker 1: can do. John D. Flippo, offensive coordinator today discussing his
Speaker 1: offense and the performance last week in Indianapolis and the
Speaker 1: loss Welcome Back Jaguar's Happy Hour. J P. Shadick, Jeff Loghaman,
Speaker 1: Leon Sarcy Uh. The question there was about the balance
Speaker 1: or lack thereof of the offense last week. They ran
Speaker 1: the ball nine times, a franchise low in a single game,
Speaker 1: But looking back at a little deeper into that second half,
Speaker 1: the offense didn't get the ball until it was sevent seven,
Speaker 1: and then they ran actually three times on that drive
Speaker 1: on first down plays for a total of minus one
Speaker 1: yard combined. So it's not like they didn't try to run,
Speaker 1: but you would that that the optics of nine rushes
Speaker 1: in a game is just tough to get past. Here,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna let the offensive lineman please thank you giving
Speaker 1: me the floor. Uh listen, let me tell you something,
Speaker 1: offensive linement. If you ask any offensive linement that played
Speaker 1: the game, whether it be in the past or play
Speaker 1: right now, the easiest thing to do, the thing that
Speaker 1: you want to do going into the game is established
Speaker 1: the run game, all right. You got to get going
Speaker 1: with the offensive line. If you don't get the game
Speaker 1: going with the offensive line, and the offensive line of
Speaker 1: lose confidence. The most difficult thing for any offensive linement
Speaker 1: to do is pass protect over forty times, forty or
Speaker 1: five times. Listen. I remember times when I was here
Speaker 1: in Jacksonville and we had some straight dogs that could
Speaker 1: go hunt as far as wide receivers go, tight ends
Speaker 1: go running back. And if we got a little pass
Speaker 1: happy me, but seller will come to the sideline and
Speaker 1: getting the court that coordinator's face and say, hey, look,
Speaker 1: run the damn ball. Because the last thing we want
Speaker 1: to do is be past protective. You got to establish
Speaker 1: the run right then and there. And that was a
Speaker 1: panic move. Hey listened to when the the Titans played
Speaker 1: the Chiefs and they were down about the same amount.
Speaker 1: They stuck to the run, Derek E were in the
Speaker 1: running game, got them back in the game. When you
Speaker 1: established that running game, it opens up, It opens up
Speaker 1: lanes for the passing games. So I mean, I don't
Speaker 1: I don't like the excuse that that we you know,
Speaker 1: I don't like the fact that we abandoned the run.
Speaker 1: I think you gotta have a little bit more confidence
Speaker 1: in your offensive line to a stablished the game is
Speaker 1: still within reach seventeen seven, get to get the running
Speaker 1: game going. But if you wait a quarter and a
Speaker 1: half too, all of a sudden start getting to get
Speaker 1: the offensive line back in the game by running the game.
Speaker 1: By that time, you know that confidence is shot. You
Speaker 1: know there's no real desire to do it, because all
Speaker 1: you're doing is past partaking the mass majority of the time.
Speaker 1: Tenney Hill had nineteen passing attempts in that game that
Speaker 1: Tennessee versus Kansas City game, nineteen passing attempts ain't scored
Speaker 1: thirty five points who have nineteen in the whole game. Okay,
Speaker 1: let me ask you this leon the Colts having given
Speaker 1: up a hundred yard rusher in twenty seven games, So
Speaker 1: it's an offensive lineman. You probably think that you just
Speaker 1: can't run the ball against him, right, they haven't given
Speaker 1: up what the Indianapolis They have not given up a
Speaker 1: hundred yard rusher in twenty seven games. So it's an
Speaker 1: offensive line and you probably think that, you know what,
Speaker 1: we better not try to run the football. Hell no,
Speaker 1: we're taken that as a personal challenge, especially in the
Speaker 1: meeting room because you know what, you know, the offensive
Speaker 1: line coaches saying, the office line coaches said, you know what,
Speaker 1: this team has to give up hundred yard Russia in
Speaker 1: the last twenty five games. What are we gonna do
Speaker 1: about it? Now? What that means going into the week,
Speaker 1: We've already got the mindset that we want to end
Speaker 1: this street. So give us, you know, give us the
Speaker 1: opportunity to end it. I mean, we're not going to
Speaker 1: listen any type of challenge. We're not trying to run from.
Speaker 1: So if you if you had nine carries in a game,
Speaker 1: in which do you think you accepted the challenge or
Speaker 1: They got a quarterback first time, starting send September and
Speaker 1: a half months and played the game, and we're gonna
Speaker 1: let them throw the ball for these seven times? Yeah,
Speaker 1: that sounds real good. Why don't you put the on
Speaker 1: this on the offensive line? Puts on the line. The
Speaker 1: offensive line should have said, listen, if any if Nick
Speaker 1: Fole is going to have any kind of success in
Speaker 1: this game, we've got we can't be one dimensional. We
Speaker 1: gotta be able to run the ball and give him opportunities. Listen,
Speaker 1: we all know what Nick Foles does best, the deep
Speaker 1: ball and play action when he was with Philly, play
Speaker 1: action in the deep ball when he had his tight ends.
Speaker 1: So why not established the run game and giving the
Speaker 1: you know, he could become more of a door threat.
Speaker 1: But giving him meant him throw the ball after he
Speaker 1: had armed fatigue forty seven passes and only nine rushes.
Speaker 1: There's a little balance there. Now, that's a lot of
Speaker 1: that's a lot of throwers first time out of the game.
Speaker 1: Guy that hasn't played in a game, in a game,
Speaker 1: we're talking look practice, you can have twenty one day
Speaker 1: window all you want. It's not game speed, you know.
Speaker 1: And the Nick started out real well, in that game,
Speaker 1: and you could just you could just see that was it.
Speaker 1: You know, it was like at the beginning, bam. And
Speaker 1: then that was the first two drives they had balance,
Speaker 1: they're running the ball, son and you know they moved
Speaker 1: down the field the holy called you know, stall the
Speaker 1: first drive and then they go down and score a touchdown.
Speaker 1: The uh, the amazing thing is you've only got nine
Speaker 1: rushes in that ball game. And so when you have
Speaker 1: nine rushes, a lot of times as as a passing team,
Speaker 1: you have zero yardage game plays or you have minus
Speaker 1: yardage plays. And what happens exactly what happened with the
Speaker 1: Jaguars and that game. I want to say that there
Speaker 1: was fourteen third downs, fourteen I think, and out of
Speaker 1: those fourteen, ten of them were third and seven plus. Look,
Speaker 1: the numbers, the numbers of converting third and seven plus
Speaker 1: are not good. And that's why when you run the football,
Speaker 1: I mean, you might end up blooding your nose and
Speaker 1: get three yards and you know, get cloud of dust
Speaker 1: in two yards even though you're on artificial turf. But look,
Speaker 1: that's that's sometimes that's what you gotta do. And I
Speaker 1: will say that when Leonard did get the ball. He
Speaker 1: was not very good either, you know, he didn't stay
Speaker 1: committed to some of the holes. So um, but you
Speaker 1: gotta you gotta call more than nine runs. Yeah. And
Speaker 1: also what you gotta do is you gotta mix it
Speaker 1: up in the run. I mean you gotta get some
Speaker 1: of these offensive linement in space, some screens, some toss
Speaker 1: you cracks, get you know, get them flowing, get them
Speaker 1: roll and get them. You know, maybe we don't match
Speaker 1: up that world on one on one you know blocking
Speaker 1: or double team block. So get some of these guards.
Speaker 1: Get the guards, the tackles, the centers out in space,
Speaker 1: you know around you know, safeties and corners and outside linebackers,
Speaker 1: getting letter going downhill and letters a downhill runner. That
Speaker 1: this zone stuff that sometimes that I'm not talking about
Speaker 1: just talk about screen screen. And then you know, the
Speaker 1: one thing that I think also with with that game
Speaker 1: is that you had an injury to set the valve
Speaker 1: what Thursday of last week, and so now you're missing
Speaker 1: a tight end which I'm sure set the valve is
Speaker 1: a big part of big part of your rushing attack.
Speaker 1: I mean lines of his fullback sometimes h and there's
Speaker 1: your lead back, there's your downhill stuff. You know, here's
Speaker 1: another blocker. And I just wondered, did the combination of
Speaker 1: of looking through Nick foles glasses I call it, you know,
Speaker 1: because you're like, oh, we've got our guy back, we
Speaker 1: feel really good about throwing a football, and all of
Speaker 1: a sudden, now we just lost a tight end. Well
Speaker 1: now we just got we gotta throw the ball. I mean,
Speaker 1: what was you wonder what it was that the mindset?
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know, but you know, you go
Speaker 1: back to the the game before, which was before the bye,
Speaker 1: in the game against Houston Garden, Minshew ended up on
Speaker 1: the injury report had a shoulder. I want to say
Speaker 1: it was a Thursday that he was added later in
Speaker 1: the week, and it was pretty apparent in that ball
Speaker 1: game early on that he was not very accurate. The
Speaker 1: ball was kind of sailing high on him. And it
Speaker 1: was a game which I think Leonard had eleven carries
Speaker 1: in that game. And I understand that the Houston Texans
Speaker 1: had a lot of injuries in the secondary. I understand
Speaker 1: that it was the same way against the Indianapolis Colts
Speaker 1: the dance and injuries in the secondary. But sometimes you
Speaker 1: gotta be who you are, you know, and the Jaguars.
Speaker 1: You are a physical or what you want to be
Speaker 1: want in your your recipe for success in the past
Speaker 1: has been you're gonna be a physical football team. Run
Speaker 1: the football and then play action passed, and then defensively,
Speaker 1: you want to be a physical defense. And and for
Speaker 1: two weeks now this team has not been a physical
Speaker 1: football team. All right, let's come back. Um, we'll flip
Speaker 1: it around. There's not much left to say on that.
Speaker 1: I think. I think we pretty much summed it up
Speaker 1: on the offensive side here. We'll come back a little
Speaker 1: more on the defense. And Derrick Henry lining up with
Speaker 1: hands on knees behind the quarterback waiting to run against
Speaker 1: this Jaguars defense. Can they do what they did earlier
Speaker 1: in the year against him, Let's hope. So we'll come
Speaker 1: back and break that matchup down in just a moment.

Speaker 1: Happy Hour. J P. Shattrick, Jeff Flagerman, Leon Searcy, Ashland
Speaker 1: Sullivan had the update there. Jack's Titans coming up at
Speaker 1: Nissan Stadium, Nashville. The Jags have lost nine of the
Speaker 1: last eleven trips to Nashville, Tennessee. Another pleasant place to play,
Speaker 1: no trust my experience did it was probably one of
Speaker 1: the better teams we had it well, probably that was
Speaker 1: the best team we've ever had. We got over three,
Speaker 1: over three, over three. Yeah, we have blame Bishop on
Speaker 1: earlier to day and I brought up to three records
Speaker 1: and you know, I was surprised he didn't say he
Speaker 1: owned us, which they did. You don't have to say it,
Speaker 1: I think. So it's been a long time going back
Speaker 1: to is the last victory for the Jaguars. You remember
Speaker 1: that game much? I don't. It was a Will Blackman
Speaker 1: quad infecta game where he stripped the guy picked it
Speaker 1: up touchdown. Yeah, Yeah, that's right. That's how long it was.
Speaker 1: The last Jaguar went amazing, And uh, it's been a
Speaker 1: long time. And when you look at it that the
Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans have been the more physical team in those games,
Speaker 1: and that's always kind of been their calling card ever since.
Speaker 1: And look at any time you're a football team that
Speaker 1: doesn't have a great quarterback, that's your calling card. That's
Speaker 1: that's what it has to be. And the Tennessee Titans
Speaker 1: for many years haven't had very good quarterback play. And
Speaker 1: even when they had McNair, that's that's what their calling
Speaker 1: card was anyway, because he wasn't a franchise passer, but
Speaker 1: he was a franchise quarterback and he could run, so
Speaker 1: they were Yeah. Yeah, well I was telling Blame to
Speaker 1: day that I felt that Derrick Henry was a big, faster,
Speaker 1: meaner Eddie George and that offensive line that they had,
Speaker 1: you know what, benji Olsen and Brad Hopkins and John
Speaker 1: running they either themselves on beach. Who is the left tackle,
Speaker 1: the the guy that was played with the Titans back
Speaker 1: in the day, Yeah, that was that was Hopkins. Brad Hopkins. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: the one that was after him. Oh, I can't remember
Speaker 1: what Brad Hopkins was back in the day, but it was.
Speaker 1: I have to look it up anyway. Brad Hopkins is
Speaker 1: good football. Yeah he was good. But yeah, that that's
Speaker 1: what that that that was their staple back then and
Speaker 1: even today, is that, No, we don't have the best quarterback,
Speaker 1: you know in the backfield, but we have a running
Speaker 1: back that's going to plow in between it, in between
Speaker 1: the center and the two guards, and we're gonna play physical,
Speaker 1: hard notes football with you. That was their main stay
Speaker 1: in ninety nine. That's their main stay here, that I mean,
Speaker 1: and you look at the offense and one of the
Speaker 1: offensive lines. I I like, uh, Taylor Lawan six seven,
Speaker 1: three oh five. He's me and he's napties get after it. Uh,
Speaker 1: He's going to be a handful in the game. And
Speaker 1: now the one thing to knock against him is that
Speaker 1: he leads the team and penalties. Has nine penalties, and
Speaker 1: last week against the Chiefs, it was three costly penalties
Speaker 1: that could have cost him because he had done necessary
Speaker 1: roughness and he had the two holding calls. But as
Speaker 1: far as right tackles go um you know him and
Speaker 1: Lane Johnson, I like those two. Conklin is pretty good play.
Speaker 1: He's not what he was prior to the knee injury
Speaker 1: that he sustained two years ago, and last year he
Speaker 1: was trying to fight back and fight through a lot
Speaker 1: of the stuff from recovering from the knee, and then
Speaker 1: he was dealing with something else eventually ended up on
Speaker 1: I R. But he looks like he's playing better this year.
Speaker 1: He's played in all ten games. Teller one is having
Speaker 1: a little bit of a struggle with some edge speed,
Speaker 1: and I think that's partly why he has the number
Speaker 1: of penalties that he does. And he missed the first
Speaker 1: four games. Remember he suspension p d suspension didn't play
Speaker 1: against the jack that's when they played Kelly at left tackle.
Speaker 1: They're they're good offensive line. But I love Derrick Henry
Speaker 1: as a running back. I've loved him since JP he
Speaker 1: was at the University of Alabama because I remember when
Speaker 1: the heck uh the running back that we ended up
Speaker 1: drafting here in Jacksonville, t J. Yeldon, and I remember
Speaker 1: when that draft class was coming out and it was
Speaker 1: very apparent that the Jaguars were gonna draft and running back.
Speaker 1: And I was watching the college film of all these guys,
Speaker 1: and every time I go to watch t J. Yelden
Speaker 1: or the film of Alabama to watch some of t J. Yellow,
Speaker 1: and every time you saw Derrick Henry in the game,
Speaker 1: I was liked, He's way better than this yelling guy.
Speaker 1: I hope we're not gonna draft this Yeldon guy, are we?
Speaker 1: Because the other guy, Derrick Henry is way better than Yelden.
Speaker 1: Yeldon was the guy they used kind of in the
Speaker 1: passing game out of the backfield screen game that was
Speaker 1: kind of there, and he ran some, but he wasn't
Speaker 1: that he wasn't. And when Derrick Henry is on the field,
Speaker 1: Alabama was way better it was over. It was over
Speaker 1: and uh and it's kind of taking him a little
Speaker 1: while to kind of to be that dominant back at
Speaker 1: the National Football League level of what last year was
Speaker 1: his first thousand yard rushing season, but he's been sharing
Speaker 1: the backfield for a long time and now he's kind
Speaker 1: of the man and Dion Lewis is just the you know,
Speaker 1: the third down time to cut type, especially back. His
Speaker 1: arguably his biggest game in the NFL got he's got
Speaker 1: a he's got a freaking sign and in a town,
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, he's good when he got a sign.
Speaker 1: When you got a sign for your hometown, you're pretty good. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and Julie up the road here. Arguably his biggest game
Speaker 1: in the NFL is against the Jaguars last year, where
Speaker 1: he had four touchdowns well hunyards, I mean it is
Speaker 1: It is a performance that you hear pretty much every
Speaker 1: day on NFL Network when Mike Keith is yelling nine
Speaker 1: nine yards and that was early in the game, and
Speaker 1: he had a few more scores after that, Um what
Speaker 1: what what When he gets outside against little guys, its
Speaker 1: lights out right, that's what they want to do well,
Speaker 1: not ninety nine yard run he got stiff armed a
Speaker 1: j boy. A couple of times, he's stick stuff farm
Speaker 1: Lely on Jacob's he's stiff armed Miles jack Um. That
Speaker 1: was not a very good play. And and that's what
Speaker 1: they try to do. I mean, look, he's a big back.
Speaker 1: I mean he's two hundred forty plus fifty pounds whatever
Speaker 1: he is, and the Titans like to be able to
Speaker 1: get him on the perimeter of the defense because when
Speaker 1: he does get on the perimeter of the defense, he's
Speaker 1: got good enough feat where he can avoid tackles that
Speaker 1: are low. But then he also is a dominant physical
Speaker 1: presence and he can push the defensive backs around and
Speaker 1: it's wise for the Tennessee Titans to try to get
Speaker 1: him outside on the perimeter. What did the Jags do
Speaker 1: differently this year against him? What was it? So? What
Speaker 1: were they so successful in the earlier games? Scored a
Speaker 1: touchdown only like forty four yards executed? Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: you execute. I mean there's no there's no mysteries about
Speaker 1: how do you stop a running back. I mean you
Speaker 1: you execute. And that's what the Jaguars defense was able
Speaker 1: to do. And then they got some early scores, which
Speaker 1: I think the Tennessee Titans. I don't want to say
Speaker 1: they abandoned the run, but they didn't. They didn't stick
Speaker 1: with it like they did against Kansas City. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: and all you know that the Titans known for bullyball,
Speaker 1: and they had beating the Jaguars like what fourth obs straight,
Speaker 1: And it was a Thursday night game, night game, and
Speaker 1: that's some particular point as a team, you gotta see
Speaker 1: enough enough, all right in Jacksonville. Just happened on that day,
Speaker 1: that Thursday night game. They played well. They played well
Speaker 1: on offense and played well on defense. Henry couldn't stand
Speaker 1: a chance. They were in attack attack form on both
Speaker 1: sides of the ball. So I think that, you know,
Speaker 1: in that particular moment that Thursday night game, Jacksonville was
Speaker 1: just to the point where I heard they heard all
Speaker 1: week that you couldn't beat this team, and they seized
Speaker 1: the opportunity that Thursday night to get it done. So hopefully,
Speaker 1: you know the fact that they haven't won in Tennessee
Speaker 1: you know, very very very long time, maybe they could
Speaker 1: you know, swing the pendulum a little bit and say, hey, look,
Speaker 1: enough's enough. You know, we've been running on two hundred
Speaker 1: yards back to back We've given a three two hundred
Speaker 1: yards rushing at this season alone. Uh, we're not gonna
Speaker 1: let it happen this week, this Sunday at four o'clock.
Speaker 1: I thought that after that game that the Titans We're
Speaker 1: gonna bench Mariota after that game. After that game, it
Speaker 1: took him a little longer. He was bad. He was
Speaker 1: he was he was barely fifty, He was largely ineffective.
Speaker 1: He didn't do anything with his legs, so to speak.
Speaker 1: And I because you know, you you kind of heard
Speaker 1: some of the rumors that Tanny Hill was looking better
Speaker 1: in training camp, and so you kind of in in
Speaker 1: my mind, I was kind of wondering, how long are
Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans gonna stick with Mariota before you know
Speaker 1: and then or they're gonna turn to Tannil sooner rather
Speaker 1: than later. So I really thought after this game that
Speaker 1: that would be it for Mariota and they would turn
Speaker 1: to Tanniel. But it took him a few games later
Speaker 1: on to do it. And ever since they have turned
Speaker 1: to Tannehill, they have been vastly better, vastly better. So
Speaker 1: he's completing seventy one of his passes eight touchdowns down
Speaker 1: to yeah, exactly. So he's he's you know, he's he's
Speaker 1: definitely utilizing the deep ball. And then when you've got
Speaker 1: to running back like Henry who's got at eight hundred
Speaker 1: yards rushing, four point four yards of carrying heat touchdowns.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's inspired, especially when you get let me
Speaker 1: saying and players know in practice who should be playing. Okay,
Speaker 1: Mariota probably stuck in there because he was the franchise pick,
Speaker 1: first round pick overall and everything. But if they got
Speaker 1: a guy this like Russell Wilson, when Russell Wilson came
Speaker 1: to Seattle, that in that that training camp, that Dan
Speaker 1: Paide what's his name from the Packers, all that money
Speaker 1: Flynn pay him all that monthing, but players saw that,
Speaker 1: wait a minute, this guy, Russell, he's way better than
Speaker 1: all the money we spend up the same way in
Speaker 1: any practice Mariota and practice players like why is he
Speaker 1: still playing? And this guy is better? And then then
Speaker 1: when you make the change, the players like, Okay, that's
Speaker 1: inspiring because now that all the politics of of the
Speaker 1: game is stowing out the winter because now you want
Speaker 1: to win football games. He's got he's got some receivers
Speaker 1: that are playing playing better for him too. How's the
Speaker 1: rookie from Old Miss pretty good? A J. Brown? He
Speaker 1: said he's a legitimate deep threat. He's big bill, he's
Speaker 1: not as big as his his cohort want to end
Speaker 1: up in Seattle, right, so the other guy from from
Speaker 1: that school, But yeah, I know A J. Brown is
Speaker 1: a big guy, big receiver. He's got deep speed. You know,
Speaker 1: Taj Sharp has kind of been their deep guy, but
Speaker 1: now you add this A J. Brown to the mix.
Speaker 1: And then Corey Davis has been a little banged up.
Speaker 1: He had a hip issue. He was inactive this past week,
Speaker 1: but they have when he's healthy. They have three guys
Speaker 1: that ken go deep. But the guy that has really
Speaker 1: emerged is the guy that they acquired in free agency,
Speaker 1: which is Adam Humphreys, who caught the game winner against
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs, and he they got him in
Speaker 1: free agency from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He wears number ten.
Speaker 1: He's kind of a little guy, kind of reminds me
Speaker 1: of a Julian Edelman, kind of a kind of a receiver,
Speaker 1: you know, that smaller, shifty, possession, tight But uh, I
Speaker 1: think he's the leading receiver and he's a good football player,
Speaker 1: and he's become a favorite for the quarterbacks in Tennessee
Speaker 1: pretty quickly. So quite a challenge this week JAG's and
Speaker 1: the Titans. We'll come back at a moment and we'll
Speaker 1: look at the FC South, the division standings, look at
Speaker 1: the a f C playoff picture. You seem skeptical lots
Speaker 1: well last playoff picture for who. Well, the FC South
Speaker 1: and the Jags are still alive there in the hunt
Speaker 1: on the graphic you're about to see. When we come back,
Speaker 1: we'll see if there's paths the want that graphic and

Speaker 1: segment talking about ninety six remember the nineties six Jaguars.
Speaker 1: You guys were you know on that team, you know
Speaker 1: that we were, Yeah we were, Yeah, but that team
Speaker 1: was four and six. In fact, they were four and
Speaker 1: seven at one point and rally to get in the playoffs. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so it's possible. So we're gonna put on a rally Caps.
Speaker 1: So there's hope starting this week, right, you gotta win.
Speaker 1: I won't put it all one. The different one. The
Speaker 1: difference between that nineties six team was that a lot
Speaker 1: of those games we lost close because we were very competitive,
Speaker 1: all right, we could run, we could pass, and we
Speaker 1: were a lot of game We lost a lot of
Speaker 1: close games. I don't think we gave up three games
Speaker 1: over two in the yard rushing ever. Ever, Yeah, because
Speaker 1: he had you had you Clyde, and we had Schmange,
Speaker 1: Schmingy and York and Day and you know, I called
Speaker 1: and I'll call us the land of misfit dolls. But
Speaker 1: for whatever reason, you know, we just we just kept fighting. Castaways.
Speaker 1: Yeah we were castaways. Here. The losing results that year,
Speaker 1: by the way, seven with the Laws seventeen three at
Speaker 1: the Raiders five and overtime in New England seventeen thirteen seventeen,
Speaker 1: fourteen one. I mean those are all closed at one
Speaker 1: score games. You're right there, and so yeah, a little
Speaker 1: different this time around, especially the last two weeks against
Speaker 1: division rivals. Really not coming close. But it's possible. Mathematically,
Speaker 1: you gotta want to see the graphics. We got an
Speaker 1: f C playoff picture. The division leaders, of course, are
Speaker 1: one to three and four in the seatings, and then
Speaker 1: current the wild card would be the Bills and the Texans.
Speaker 1: Patriots at nine and one will be the number one
Speaker 1: seed today Baltimore, Kansas City, Indie. The wild card the
Speaker 1: Bills and the Texans, and of course the Texans and Colts.
Speaker 1: I played tonight in Hunt Raiders six and four playing
Speaker 1: good ball stealers somehow are five and five, Titans right
Speaker 1: there at five and five, and then the rest rounds Jaguars, Chargers.
Speaker 1: There's a few teams not on the graphic because they
Speaker 1: really don't have a true shot at it. So so
Speaker 1: what you're saying, well, so what's the percentage? Just put
Speaker 1: a number on one? Are the Jaguars chances? I mean
Speaker 1: it's low. I don't know. I mean, you gotta win.
Speaker 1: You gotta win all the games, right, I mean you
Speaker 1: gotta win an out six games to get to ten,
Speaker 1: uh five to get to nine, and then you need
Speaker 1: a lot of help. Thank you, I'll give you that.
Speaker 1: You're good at math. Took a couple of classes in Tuscaloosa.
Speaker 1: That's about it. It's uh, it's a it's a long road.
Speaker 1: I think that the reason I say that or I
Speaker 1: think that this team is you don't compare it to
Speaker 1: and I think it's hard to compare any team to
Speaker 1: ninety six. And I'm not trying to to say that
Speaker 1: we were great or anything like that, but that was
Speaker 1: pretty unique, a unique set of circumstances that we were
Speaker 1: a second year franchise that had no expectations attached to us.
Speaker 1: Nobody expected us to be good, and I think some
Speaker 1: people within our own building didn't expect us to be good.
Speaker 1: We were just trying to build to the future. And
Speaker 1: so I think there's a big difference when you can
Speaker 1: exist without the expectations being attached to your football team.
Speaker 1: And I think that that's kind of what made us
Speaker 1: a little bit unique. Look we were we were just
Speaker 1: allowed to to exist without a lot of criticism. I mean,
Speaker 1: I know that a lot of people had higher expectations
Speaker 1: than what we were at that point, and wanted us
Speaker 1: to do a little bit better. But we were a
Speaker 1: second year franchise and people are like, man, we're just
Speaker 1: glad we got the Jaguars playing with house money, total
Speaker 1: house money, total house money. And then you know, it
Speaker 1: was some particular point, you know, when we were playing
Speaker 1: the ninety six and we had if I if I
Speaker 1: say here and tell you at four seven we had
Speaker 1: designs going the playoffs, I'll be lying, I'll be trying
Speaker 1: to win again, trying to win again. All we all
Speaker 1: we did weekend and week out. It's whatever team that
Speaker 1: maybe had aspirations to play the playoffs, we were looking
Speaker 1: to knock him on. Let's try to, let's try to,
Speaker 1: let's try to spoiler, just play spoiler, and then before
Speaker 1: you know, your knock off one, two, three. Next thing,
Speaker 1: you know, you gotta streak and what we don't want
Speaker 1: three straight five like and then we go we go
Speaker 1: eight and seven, and then I think the worst thing
Speaker 1: man have been talked about this about a couple of
Speaker 1: days ago. The worst thing they could have told us
Speaker 1: is that you be the Atlanta You're going to the playoffs.
Speaker 1: And then that was probably our worst game total, totally
Speaker 1: that worst game. So when we got notion that we
Speaker 1: could make the playoffs, we played as bad as we
Speaker 1: bad as we could have played, and then you know,
Speaker 1: misfield goal. Next thing you know, we're in. And then
Speaker 1: we got once you got into the playoffs, we were
Speaker 1: we felt like we were again playing with House. We're
Speaker 1: actually joking around because we're like, what do we get
Speaker 1: paid in the playoffs? So we started to look at
Speaker 1: the checks for the winners and losers like we're winning
Speaker 1: whether we win or lose, right, we're getting a little
Speaker 1: extra money. And then once we beat them, then we
Speaker 1: were It was kind of the same attitude in Denver.
Speaker 1: But then when we went to New England, it was
Speaker 1: there's a super Bowl on the line, and so now
Speaker 1: you have pressure, pressure, the little visions of the Lombardi Trophy. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: So then all of a sudden, there was no house
Speaker 1: money anymore when you go to New England. So alright,
Speaker 1: so I'll lay off the nineties six comparison. It is,
Speaker 1: I mean, it is. It's very hard to compare unless
Speaker 1: you're talking about expansion franchise. It's kind of hard to
Speaker 1: compare for that season is pretty unique. Thursday Night football tonight.
Speaker 1: The Colts at six and four, the Texans at six
Speaker 1: and four, first placed on the line in the SEC South.
Speaker 1: That you guys like tonight, Uh Texans that you know,
Speaker 1: I haven't been playing well last week? They have the
Speaker 1: doors blown off by the Ravens. Where's that in Houston?
Speaker 1: M h I think it's great. I mean, I I
Speaker 1: don't know. I can tell you this. I think that, Uh,
Speaker 1: Indianapolis should be able to run the ball against Houston.
Speaker 1: I believe. I think Indianapolis also should be getting t
Speaker 1: Y Hilton back tonight, So now you got a guy back.
Speaker 1: And by the way, that was the first game they
Speaker 1: had won without t Y Hilton against the Jaguars this
Speaker 1: past week in their in their history. Um it's uh,
Speaker 1: it's where in Houston? Houston, boy, I don't know. Uh.
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson m VP candidate, you know, is he anymore
Speaker 1: after last week? I mean he's still I mean he
Speaker 1: had one one game that wasn't great against Lamar Jackson.
Speaker 1: I mean he's a candidate. He's not He's a is
Speaker 1: not gonna take him out of the being a candidate.
Speaker 1: I don't know. That's a tough game to pick. Tough
Speaker 1: game to pick. And I can say this, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't know if Indianapolis has enough speed up front
Speaker 1: to catch DeShawn Watson, because the Jaguars when when they
Speaker 1: played in early in the game, he was just he's
Speaker 1: slippery and uh. And if Deshaun Watson plays like he
Speaker 1: did in London, I'll take Houston. Oh yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: pretty much every week he plays like their home. I
Speaker 1: don't know. That's it. I can tell you this. I'll
Speaker 1: be glued to the TV tonight. I think this is
Speaker 1: I think this is a great matchup, great matchup. Who
Speaker 1: you like tonight? Um, well, I tell you what. The
Speaker 1: Coats um. You know, there's no real star power on
Speaker 1: the coach team. They just they do a lot of
Speaker 1: things well on both side of the ball. They got
Speaker 1: a solid offensive line. You know, I won't say they
Speaker 1: have a disruptive defense, but they play sound defense. Yeah.
Speaker 1: They remind me of you know what. They remind me
Speaker 1: the Spurs. You know, nothing flashy, they just do everything right.
Speaker 1: Who you na, na I'm calling I'm gonna call it
Speaker 1: Indianapolis the big fundamental all right, They're fundamentally they are
Speaker 1: sound on both sides. Have to help on the on
Speaker 1: the NBA fundamental knowledge, fundamental fundamental Tim duncan you know
Speaker 1: and listen? And the only shot we have is that
Speaker 1: we you know, the Texas have already beat us twice
Speaker 1: and we got to play the Coats again in the season.
Speaker 1: So um, I'm gonna go with the Coast to win.
Speaker 1: I think the Coats up front can run the ball.
Speaker 1: I think that they'll established to run against the Texas.
Speaker 1: If you can. Somehow you can't, you can't control it,
Speaker 1: but if you gotta, if you can contain Deshaun Watson,
Speaker 1: you know, he's like a magician out there when he
Speaker 1: gets out the side of the pocket, keep him in
Speaker 1: the pocket, get the sacks. And I'm taking the better
Speaker 1: offensive line. I think the Coast has a better offensive
Speaker 1: line and protecting and running the ball. So I think
Speaker 1: they're gonna be just effective tonight then they were last
Speaker 1: week against US. I'll take the better quarterback at home. Okay, wow,
Speaker 1: is there. We're gonna make it interesting? No, No, I've
Speaker 1: already lost. How tough is this task for the Jaguars
Speaker 1: Sunday in Nashville? I mean, how many times have they
Speaker 1: won there in the last ten years? Of the last
Speaker 1: eleven years, they've won twice up there. And so you're
Speaker 1: asking me how tough I think it is out there? Again,
Speaker 1: say that again, of the last there they're they've lost
Speaker 1: time the last eleven. Two of the last eleven trips
Speaker 1: have only two out of the last eleven have been
Speaker 1: victories in And that ought to tell you right there
Speaker 1: that this is this is and and here's the other thing.
Speaker 1: It's a four o'clock kick a little bit idle time.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a little chilly at uh. I think
Speaker 1: the stadium is gonna be rocking regardless of the outcome
Speaker 1: tonight in tonight's game. So you know, I think this.
Speaker 1: I think this is a tough game for the Jaguars
Speaker 1: in a lot of different ways. And Tennessee Titans lost before,
Speaker 1: but they're looking for a little payback, you know that. Uh.
Speaker 1: I think this is a tough game for the Jaguars.
Speaker 1: I think in a lot of different ways. I mean,
Speaker 1: when you when you just look at the numbers of
Speaker 1: what the Jaguars defense is allowed in the last two
Speaker 1: weeks against the run and the number of points that
Speaker 1: they've scored. How many points are they scored in two
Speaker 1: games last two games atensively of the Jags. Yea, not many.
Speaker 1: H uh yeah, it'd be tough one. Tough one, all right,
Speaker 1: we think Leon, it's gonna be a tough one. Thank you, Leon.
Speaker 1: But when you work with words, words are your work.
Speaker 1: That's that Miami education like the Leon. Thank you very much.
Speaker 1: It's all right, see it. We'll talk to you on
Speaker 1: Sunday performance Base. Hopefully you're you're on the team. I know,
