They threw a fade on fourth down 12 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:55,880 Speaker 4: in the red zone that didn't work. Either the Jaguars 13 00:00:56,120 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 4: escape thirty one to twenty four or in a game 14 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 4: that was, you know, not as entertaining as that score 15 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,560 Speaker 4: would say, but more entertaining than we thought it was 16 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 4: gonna be about halfway through, when it looked like the. 17 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:11,680 Speaker 3: Jaguars were gonna run away with this. 18 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:16,760 Speaker 4: I'm Greg Rosenthal wrapping up T and F with Charles 19 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 4: McDonald from Yahoo. 20 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 3: He helped us out a year ago. 21 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 4: Charles, he's the host of the Exemptless podcast doing good 22 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 4: stuff over at Yahoo Sports. 23 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:29,120 Speaker 3: Thanks for joining, Charles, Glad we got a good one 24 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:29,399 Speaker 3: for you. 25 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:33,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, Well, I was a little worried when as this 26 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:36,200 Speaker 5: game was going on in the first half. But luckily 27 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 5: the Jaguars kind of, you know, did what they've done 28 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,480 Speaker 5: all year and mess around in the second half. 29 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 6: And let the other team get back into it. 30 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:47,040 Speaker 5: But they were blessed by the grace of God really 31 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 5: to have Foster Morrow drop that touchdown at the end 32 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 5: of the game and give them the win. But man, 33 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 5: that was a really, really sloppy game. Like, like you said, 34 00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 5: the final score does not it was not indicator of 35 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 5: how competitive or close. 36 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 6: That actually was. 37 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 4: Right, there's so much and I do think this tends 38 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 4: to happen on T and F games. I used to 39 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:14,799 Speaker 4: think it was just something people complained about on Thursday 40 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 4: nights because like half of these early, you know, slate 41 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 4: games on Sundays, they're just they're ugly too. But now 42 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 4: I really do think there is something to it, not 43 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 4: having that time to get ready and to recover your 44 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 4: body and everything that goes along with it. 45 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 3: So this was an ugly game, but it ended up 46 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 3: being entertaining. 47 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 4: And I'm trying to check myself because you know, I 48 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,519 Speaker 4: went to school in New Orleans. I followed the Saints 49 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 4: team closely, and they feel like the main characters to 50 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,679 Speaker 4: me in this game, the ups and the downs, and 51 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:45,920 Speaker 4: they're the home team. And yet I will start with 52 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 4: the Jaguars here because they are five and two and 53 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,239 Speaker 4: they've managed to get through a tricky part of this 54 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 4: schedule where they were in London for two games. They 55 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 4: come back, they have a division game and then a 56 00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 4: short week on the road in New Orleans. 57 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 3: They get to five and two, and you said it, Charles. 58 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 4: Every week they come out and their opening script is godlike, 59 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 4: I mean, Press Taylor who's calling plays for them now, 60 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 4: and Doug Peterson helps put together the plan, and Trevor Lawrence. 61 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 4: They come out every week, the first couple of drives 62 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 4: are awesome. It happened again tonight. They put a touchdown 63 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 4: up early, they get another touchdown early second quarter, it's 64 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:28,520 Speaker 4: fourteen to three, and then it just gets stagnant the 65 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 4: rest of the game. And I can't really put it 66 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 4: on Trevor Lawrence who's playing out there with an injured knee, 67 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 4: although he looked good running the ball, Like, what is 68 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 4: it that you're seeing with this offense this year? 69 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 3: And then certainly in this game where. 70 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 4: It's like they seem to start off well and then 71 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 4: they can't quite hit the levels that they were hitting 72 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 4: at the end of last year. 73 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 5: Well, I think one thing that was big for them 74 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 5: in this game, at least was the absence of Zay 75 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 5: Jones almost send the same flowers wrong as they But 76 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 5: they kind of found themselves in a situation today where 77 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 5: Jamal Agnew was taking real deal wide receiver reps for 78 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 5: them when he's more of a gadget return guy. 79 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 6: You know, I feel like in the best use. 80 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 5: Of Jamal agne for an NFL offense, you're probably looking 81 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 5: at a guy who's taking screens, maybe. 82 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 6: A reverse or a jet sweep every once in a while. 83 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 5: But where they got into trouble was, you know, having 84 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 5: him run routes that you would expect Calvin Ridley making 85 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 5: or Zay Jones be making, a Christian Kirk be making, 86 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 5: and for some reason, he kind of kept getting funneled 87 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 5: the ball, like he had six targets in the first 88 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 5: half alone, and they tried to get him the ball 89 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 5: in another reverse that didn't really work out in their favor. 90 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 5: So I think they're just kind of stuck when the 91 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 5: Ridley to Lawrence connection isn't working right. 92 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 3: It wasn't working like it wasn't working today at all. 93 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 4: Anew got six targets, Calvin Rerialby had four. I don't 94 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 4: think he had any in the first half. He only 95 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 4: had one catch five yard. It's been a very strange 96 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 4: Ridley season where it's either he's the game changer or 97 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 4: he's kind of taken away from the offense. That's what 98 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 4: I felt like tonight on a big call that they 99 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:08,119 Speaker 4: dial you're in a big drive when it was tied, 100 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 4: I believe, or they're trying to put the game away. 101 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:14,279 Speaker 4: They go three straight plays to Ridley, none of them work. 102 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 4: They end up getting the ball back and getting the 103 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 4: go ahead touchdown. But it's been uneven throwing it to Ridley. 104 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 6: Yeah. 105 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 5: I think when you look at the whole offense, it's 106 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 5: really they're kind of incomplete when you look at the 107 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 5: sum of their talent. I think having Trevor Lawrence it 108 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,720 Speaker 5: is a huge blessing for the Jaguars. We even saw 109 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 5: that tonight, coming off of a knee injury, he still 110 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:40,479 Speaker 5: picked up a handful of clutch first downs on his 111 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 5: own when things weren't open downfield. So he's kind of 112 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,159 Speaker 5: gotten to a place in his career I think where 113 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 5: he can elevate the talent around him. And luckily they 114 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:50,840 Speaker 5: play you know, the NFC South and the AFC South 115 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 5: this year, so that should be a good amount of 116 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 5: wins for them. But I think when you look at 117 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 5: where they're trying to be, which is at the top 118 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,919 Speaker 5: of the AFC, they're not quite there yet like with 119 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 5: the Bills or the Dolphins of the Chiefs, but they're coming, 120 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 5: you know, I think they're another off season the way. 121 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,039 Speaker 4: But they're also stacking wins as they go. And so 122 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 4: one of the things I've tried to learn over the 123 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:17,040 Speaker 4: years is, like man, October, these teams they're not really 124 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 4: who they're going to be when it matters. They'll fool 125 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 4: you one way or another. And the key is do 126 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 4: you have the pieces that are there? Are you kind 127 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:26,919 Speaker 4: of stacking wins and you're in a good position along 128 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 4: the way, And they've done it. 129 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,479 Speaker 3: They start out one and two, they're up to five 130 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 3: and two. No one in the AFC has more wins 131 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 3: than they do. 132 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:38,039 Speaker 4: As we go to sleep tonight, they got Pittsburgh next 133 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 4: week and then they have a bye week, so a 134 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 4: nice little stretch here where they have a lot of 135 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:45,599 Speaker 4: off days, and as you mentioned, the schedule is not 136 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 4: bad at all down the stretch, so they're in good 137 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 4: position and we can get to their defense later. But 138 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 4: there's some things about their defense I like, and ultimately 139 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,680 Speaker 4: like they're improving enough on offense, and Lawrence looks good 140 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:00,719 Speaker 4: this year that I'm not too worried. 141 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:02,799 Speaker 3: But I gotta get to the Saints, because the Saints 142 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 3: this whole game. 143 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, let's work backwards actually at the end, because 144 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 4: the Saints offense came alive in the fourth quarter, the 145 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 4: Alvin Kamara offense, which is like what we can call 146 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 4: the Saints. He had twenty nine touches total one hundred 147 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 4: and fifty three yards from scrimmage. Total sixty two are 148 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 4: on the ground on seventeen carries, twelve catches. 149 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 3: For ninety one. 150 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 4: I mean everything was his check down, checkdown, everything's going 151 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 4: to Camara. He's not really making plays on the second level, 152 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 4: but he's good at making that first guy missed. But 153 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 4: it was a very frustrating night for Derek Carr's a 154 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 4: frustrating night for Saints fans who are booing the hell 155 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 4: out of him early. He's yelling at half of his 156 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 4: teammates during the game. Olave for stopping short unner route 157 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 4: Camara for changing his route up ones, he's checking the 158 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 4: ball down before even seeming to go through his reads. 159 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 3: And then you look up at the end. 160 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 4: Of the game and here they are, like making a 161 00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 4: fourth quarter comeback, a foster drop away from tying this 162 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 4: thing at like thirty one if they go for the 163 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 4: extra point. And I know Dennis Allen, he's gutless, he 164 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 4: would have definitely gone for the extra point. Like, what 165 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 4: what do you make of this Saint's team after spending 166 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 4: your night with him? 167 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 3: Well that was that was an open ended question. 168 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 5: But yes, the petty Falcons fan in me, yes, a 169 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 5: nice kick out of that, to be honest with you, 170 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 5: because they look terrible for the vast majority of the game, 171 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 5: right and and honestly, for how decimated their offensive line was, 172 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 5: I thought the protection maybe could have been a little 173 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 5: bit worse. Like there were times when Josh Allen and 174 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:40,080 Speaker 5: Andre's Pete you know, had their quote unquote battles where 175 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 5: Josh Allen run straight past some more they had like 176 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 5: protection mix mixes ups in the middle where you know, 177 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 5: bad guys coming running running straight through the middle of 178 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 5: the line of scrimmage. But it's just it's just so constipated, 179 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 5: like they don't really have anything to get that. It's 180 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 5: the best way that I can described it, right because 181 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 5: Derek Carr are the most explosive playmaker they have Chris Alave. 182 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 5: Derek Carr has no rapport with him right now. And 183 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 5: you know Alave dropped the pass today too as well. 184 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 5: So you look at that the decline of Michael Thomas 185 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 5: to where he's at right now, it kind of turns 186 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 5: into an offense where all you have is Alvin Kamara 187 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,719 Speaker 5: and trying to spam the ball to him. So is 188 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 5: Alvin Kamara gonna catch one hundred passes this year? I 189 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 5: don't really think that that's a great style of offense 190 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 5: for them. But then they come back and you have 191 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 5: when you got to have it. They run down the 192 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 5: field fifty three yards, three players score touchdown. I'm like, 193 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 5: where is that? Where has that been all game? Because 194 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:38,839 Speaker 5: it's I don't I don't think these players are as 195 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 5: bad as maybe their production has been, but it was 196 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 5: just a mess tonight. 197 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 3: No. 198 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,440 Speaker 4: I think if you put Kamara or even Michael Thomas 199 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 4: and a more functional offense, they would look better. Kamara, Yeah, 200 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 4: he has twenty three catches going into this game. So 201 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 4: he now has thirty five on the season in four games. 202 00:09:58,559 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 6: That's crazy. 203 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,560 Speaker 4: That's if he was playing seventeen games. That's like a 204 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,200 Speaker 4: pace for one fifty. And he's not the same dude 205 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 4: he used to be in terms of making people miss 206 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 4: at the second level. And so some of those I've 207 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,079 Speaker 4: said it on this show, some of those plays that 208 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 4: used to be like twenty one yards are like eight. 209 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:20,200 Speaker 3: Now or ten. But they wore the Jags down. I 210 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 3: think part of that. 211 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 4: A big part of that was just it's a short 212 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 4: week and they ended up running eighty seven plays. The 213 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 4: Jags could not stay on the field in the second half. 214 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:33,560 Speaker 4: They decided not to go for it on a fourth down. 215 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 4: The Saints had a really long drive that then didn't score, 216 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 4: and then they had a pick six, and then they 217 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 4: had another long drive, so they just had the ball forever. 218 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 4: And I think that's part of the reason why you 219 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 4: saw the Saints look so good at the end of 220 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 4: the game was the Jaguars defense was just worn out. 221 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:54,679 Speaker 3: But you're right on a lave because there's frustration there. 222 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 4: They threw the ball to him fifteen times tonight for 223 00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 4: fifty seven yards, So that that's under four yards per 224 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 4: attempt when you're targeting allotving nothing over fourteen yards. 225 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 3: There was frustration, there's drops. 226 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 4: And then especially early in the game, there was just 227 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 4: straight up misses by Derek Carr. So he's combining to me, 228 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 4: like a guy who plays it very safe, kind of 229 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 4: checking down before he even looks down the field. 230 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 3: That's why I love Thursday nights. 231 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,640 Speaker 4: You can watch the prime vision and kind of see 232 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 4: the field and he's just hitting that Camara, you know, 233 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 4: throwing the flat before he even takes any time. But 234 00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 4: when he is trying to go deeper down the field, 235 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:33,959 Speaker 4: it just seems like things are off. 236 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 3: So it's a lot of the same just kind of 237 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:37,080 Speaker 3: drop back. 238 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 4: And throw it, not a lot of creativity, Like Saints 239 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,319 Speaker 4: fans are done with Pete Carmichael and they're wondering if 240 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,560 Speaker 4: Derek Carr is better than Andy Dalton was a year ago. 241 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:48,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, one of the more interesting parts of the game 242 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 5: to me was, you know, you said that had eighty 243 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 5: seven plays, Like they had to use all of those 244 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 5: plays to get you know, down the field because as 245 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 5: bad as they were on third down, Because there were 246 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 5: so many plays where Derek Carr you'll be third and eight, 247 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:01,079 Speaker 5: he's throwing shortest sticks. 248 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 6: Third and six, he's throwing shortest sticks. 249 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 5: And then they end up four and six on fourth 250 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 5: down because I think in the second half they're like, well, 251 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 5: screw it, we got to start going for it. Even 252 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 5: if Derek's not going to, you know, give us a 253 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 5: chance down the field. We still have forty one in 254 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:15,680 Speaker 5: the backfield and we can spam that. 255 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:17,079 Speaker 6: So it just. 256 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 3: Eighteen by the way down until they got that third one. 257 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:26,839 Speaker 4: That was the most third down attempts without a third 258 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 4: conversion in four years. 259 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,599 Speaker 3: So it's pretty rare that a team pretty that. 260 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, it just the best way I can put it 261 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 5: is offense looked very, very hard for the Saints tonight. 262 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 5: There's just no easy buttons, there's no outlets, And yeah, 263 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:45,079 Speaker 5: hopefully that can improve for them as the offensive line 264 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,839 Speaker 5: gets healthy, and maybe Trevor Penny can improve and start 265 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 5: to look like the first round pick that they drafted 266 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 5: him to be. But they just kind of seem to 267 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 5: be in a bit of a talent deficit right now. 268 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,320 Speaker 6: It's it's top heavy. You still have your stars at 269 00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:57,680 Speaker 6: the top. 270 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,040 Speaker 5: But I think what we've seen as they've had to 271 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,679 Speaker 5: deal with the effects of kicking all the Breeze money 272 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 5: down the road and kicking all those contracts down the road, 273 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 5: you start to lose like the middle class of your roster. 274 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 5: So when an I want to say, Taylor gets hurt, 275 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,320 Speaker 5: maybe you don't have someone to replace him. Where your 276 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 5: offensive line gets hurt, you've probably got someone cheaper than 277 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:17,960 Speaker 5: what you had in the past as depth. So that's 278 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 5: where you start to see it. Because I think it's 279 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 5: interesting when people say, oh, the CAP's not real. CAP's 280 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,440 Speaker 5: not real, and for the most part, like, yeah, you 281 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 5: can do your tricks to mess around with it, but 282 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,559 Speaker 5: when you put yourself into a situation like the Saints, 283 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 5: it's just a slow bleed of talent over year after 284 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 5: year after year after year. 285 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 6: And I looked it up during the game today. 286 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 5: They are projected to have negative eighty million dollars in 287 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 5: cap space next year. 288 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 3: So they get best around with that. 289 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, to a decent degree, but to a degree. 290 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 3: Here's some guaranteed money that they have next year. 291 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 4: I know it's a little early to be talking like 292 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 4: next year for Saints, but Derek Carr ram check at 293 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,319 Speaker 4: your loving this As a Falcons fan, I want to 294 00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 4: get to your reaction to about how the Saints fans 295 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 4: are or booing the hell out of the seam. But 296 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 4: Derek Carr, ramcheck Cam, Jordan Kamara, Taysom Hill, Jamis, they 297 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 4: all have money that's gonna be I think ten million 298 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:13,079 Speaker 4: dollars plus into next year, and yeah, they can keep 299 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 4: spreading it out, but that's money that's gonna be on 300 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 4: their cap. And the point is, like these are all 301 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 4: declining players. You know, they're not players that are on 302 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 4: the upswing for the most part. 303 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:27,640 Speaker 3: So now you're you're kind of tied into this core 304 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 3: for at least a. 305 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 4: Couple more years that aren't necessarily getting better. The whole 306 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 4: point is to be maxing out this year, to get 307 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:41,120 Speaker 4: to nine or ten wins, to get Dennis Allen and 308 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 4: Mickey Loomis another two years at this gig.

And now we're just kind 360 00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 5: of waving around in no man's land again. So, like 361 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 5: you said, their goal should be to get ten wins 362 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 5: because job security matters if you are Dennis Allen and 363 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:09,320 Speaker 5: Mickey Loomis. But I don't really see what where this 364 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 5: season is supposed to take. 365 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 4: Them Okay, we're gonna take a quick break, but I 366 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:16,080 Speaker 4: do have a couple of points on what you just 367 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 4: said with job security coming up after the break. 368 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 3: Okay, I do. 369 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:25,679 Speaker 4: I do want to mention here how this was a 370 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 4: revenge game for Doug Peterson. And I love the guys 371 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 4: at the Saints Twitter podcast that I'm sure they are 372 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 4: ranting tonight.

And 374 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 4: one of the things that always cracks me up is 375 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:45,960 Speaker 4: they're so pissed that Doug Peterson only got a Zoom 376 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:50,359 Speaker 4: interview when they hired Dennis Allen, that like they didn't 377 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:53,239 Speaker 4: want to fly that, you know, Doug Peterson, who had 378 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 4: won a Super Bowl with Eagles down to New Orleans. 379 00:17:57,760 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 3: They're just gotta cheap out. 380 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:02,160 Speaker 4: We're gonna we're gonna interview you on Zoom because we 381 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 4: know we got this guy in house, Dennis Allen, who's 382 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:09,399 Speaker 4: now eighteen and forty two as a head coach in 383 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 4: the NFL, and we kind of know we're going to 384 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 4: hire him, and so these are kind of sham interviews. 385 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:17,120 Speaker 4: We're gonna do Eric the Enemy like that too, and 386 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 4: we're not really going to. 387 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:19,680 Speaker 3: Try to get creative on offense. 388 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 4: We're gonna keep Pete Carmichael, who you know, there were 389 00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 4: some whispers reports didn't even want the OC job because 390 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 4: he was kind of he was. 391 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 3: Kind of cool with just kind of being, you know, 392 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 3: in the background. 393 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 4: And I'm not saying that to like say, oh, let's 394 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,320 Speaker 4: just mock them. They made a bad choice. I'm saying 395 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 4: it to point out what you talked about, which is like, 396 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:39,920 Speaker 4: I think they did that because Dennis Allen was the 397 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,240 Speaker 4: guy they knew that wasn't going to rock the boat. 398 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 4: And I do think there is something about this organization 399 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:48,480 Speaker 4: where Gail Benson's there who took over for her late husband, 400 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 4: and Mickey Loomis is really running this show. He has 401 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 4: about as much power as anyone that's that's like no 402 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 4: a note or not a head coach. Sean Payton's out 403 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 4: the door, and I think they just wanted to like 404 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 4: keep it all in house. They weren't hiring any new 405 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 4: assistance from outside the building. It's all the same people. 406 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:09,359 Speaker 4: It's like all the same players. It's just like, let's 407 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 4: just keep this all together. We don't want someone like 408 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 4: Doug coming in here, who is going to bring in 409 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 4: his own people, and who knows if it gets kind 410 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,680 Speaker 4: of sideways, like we're gonna be out of a job. 411 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:19,720 Speaker 3: So it's this whole sort of culture. 412 00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 4: That I think speaks to what even you were talking 413 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 4: about with the roster getting stale. It's just like, let's 414 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 4: just hold on to this as long as we can. 415 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 4: Like I don't think there's any aspirations to win the 416 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:31,120 Speaker 4: super Bowl. It's like, let's get paid for like four 417 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:34,240 Speaker 4: or five more years if we can. And that's like 418 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 4: I get it, Like I get the motivation to make 419 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 4: that happen, but like, I don't think long term success 420 00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 4: is gonna is gonna happen when you make decisions like that. 421 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 5: No, at the time, I kind of understood it because 422 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:48,920 Speaker 5: I do think where they were as far as like 423 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 5: their roster construction in their cat space was kind of 424 00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 5: relevant for the hire they made. You know, I don't 425 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 5: think it was quite inspiring higher because, like you said, 426 00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,879 Speaker 5: eighteen and forty two record kind kind of speaks for 427 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,520 Speaker 5: itself after a while. All right, but you're at a 428 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:05,439 Speaker 5: point where, excuse me, you can't really blow it up 429 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 5: and rebuild through the contracts you have, so maybe you 430 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:11,640 Speaker 5: just say, let's run it back to a degree and 431 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 5: for Doug that worked out great for you, man, like 432 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 5: you got you fell into the lap of Trevor Lawrence. 433 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 5: Now that gets Protty much. 434 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:21,120 Speaker 4: Better that way. And that that was at the point 435 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 4: in the off season too. I Doug Peterson was not sure. 436 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 3: To get a job. 437 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 4: I forget now off the top of my head who 438 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:28,199 Speaker 4: Jacksonville's first pick was. 439 00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 3: But it wasn't Doug Peterson. 440 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 5: It was that the Byron left which here was that 441 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 5: in well maybe no, no, I think that was a 442 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:37,680 Speaker 5: year after. 443 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 3: He didn't want to. 444 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 4: It was the same iron cycle as Alan and but 445 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 4: they ended up with a better coach with with Doug Peterson, 446 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 4: and thank you. This is why I like the tn 447 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 4: F recaps. The only time we go this deep into 448 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 4: one team.

They did have backups at their tackle 462 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 4: position that you know they they suddenly are very banged 463 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 4: up there, but that speaks to the weirdness that's. 464 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 3: Going on there. 465 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 4: Their first round pick, Trevor Penning, was their left tackle 466 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:37,479 Speaker 4: started the whole season until last week when an article 467 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:39,840 Speaker 4: goes up on New Orleans Football dot Com.

And 474 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 4: I'm fine with like them benching Trevor Penning and he struggled. 475 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,240 Speaker 4: But this is some Dennis Allen stuff where he and 476 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:09,720 Speaker 4: he did it back in Oakland and he's done it 477 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:11,479 Speaker 4: a little bit in New Orleans with when they were 478 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,479 Speaker 4: going to trade ced deuce where he started seeing all 479 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:16,800 Speaker 4: this stuff popping out in the media, and he's just 480 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 4: like kind of using the. 481 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:19,679 Speaker 3: Media to explain what he's going to do. 482 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:22,359 Speaker 4: But it's like, just tell the man, just tell the 483 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 4: man in your bench, right, you don't need to like 484 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 4: do some whole sourcing and bury him in the media. 485 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 4: So it's like, I don't think players respect that, and 486 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,639 Speaker 4: they're not stupid. Believe me, if I'm talking about it, 487 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:33,800 Speaker 4: they're talking about. 488 00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:35,880 Speaker 6: It well, especially with the Trevor Penning thing. 489 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:39,400 Speaker 5: It's not like benching would not have been totally justified 490 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 5: based on Washington play. 491 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:44,160 Speaker 6: So I don't know why you would. 492 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:46,400 Speaker 4: Like they got and then their left tackle got hurt, 493 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:48,960 Speaker 4: and then their backup left tackle got hurt, the fifth 494 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 4: string tackle. 495 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 3: What's going on? They didn't start. 496 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:54,080 Speaker 5: I know, it's crazy that it kind of seems like 497 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 5: they're just waving the white flag on Matt Pick already, 498 00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:00,200 Speaker 5: which is kind of crazy, but he really. 499 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:01,160 Speaker 6: Has been that bad. 500 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:04,800 Speaker 5: I think it's it's it's also kind of an indictment 501 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:07,959 Speaker 5: on maybe even where they are like culturally that that 502 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:11,959 Speaker 5: they would rather go andres Pete and cam Irving as 503 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 5: your tackles and even just try to have your first 504 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 5: round tackle, you know, just give it a go. 505 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,879 Speaker 4: So he was on the field when they like lined up, 506 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:23,119 Speaker 4: I don't know if it was like seven on the 507 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:23,919 Speaker 4: line or something. 508 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 3: For that Taysom Hill touchdown. 509 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,080 Speaker 6: In the backfield, you got tackle. 510 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 4: You got your defensive tackle, Caylen Sanders in the backfield, 511 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:34,879 Speaker 4: you got Trevor Petting over there as like an extra 512 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 4: tight end. I mean, every time I watch the Saints, 513 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,439 Speaker 4: I can't believe I got to this place. But I'm like, 514 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,120 Speaker 4: give me more Taysom Hill man. 515 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 3: Like, you know, he's pretty good at what he does. 516 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,200 Speaker 3: He's not worth He's not worth the money that he gets. 517 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:52,399 Speaker 4: He's guaranteed like thirteen million dollars next year by the 518 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:54,399 Speaker 4: way too, so he's not going anywhere. But it's like 519 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 4: at least they got some juice when he's on the field. 520 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:58,520 Speaker 4: He's been pretty good this year. 521 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 5: As as so one who has been on the wrong 522 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 5: end of a lot of Taysom Hill runs. As far 523 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 5: as Falcon phantoms go, I swear to God that Taysom 524 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 5: Hill quarterback power run is like one of the most 525 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:15,719 Speaker 5: unstoppable plays in football. Like when the goal line they 526 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 5: can run it on first down in short yardage. Unfortunately, 527 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 5: you know that's not a play you can run every 528 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:23,879 Speaker 5: single down. But as as a nice little change up, 529 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:27,199 Speaker 5: it's it's become kind of a crutch for their offense 530 00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:27,720 Speaker 5: at times. 531 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 6: And maybe he was worth that that contract at the game. 532 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 3: I don't think turning into like a decent tight end. 533 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,719 Speaker 4: He went four for fifty tonight, Like you see him 534 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,240 Speaker 4: out there actually running some real routes because yeah, yeah, 535 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 4: I'm watching the next Gen stats feed and like he's 536 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 4: lined up as a wide receiver. I don't know how 537 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,639 Speaker 4: many snaps just seem like quite a bit of snaps. 538 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,200 Speaker 4: It's kind of crazy, but it just goes to show 539 00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 4: like that they're a wild They're a wild organization. I 540 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:55,000 Speaker 4: love having them in the NFL because there's no other 541 00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 4: team that's trading multiple first round picks and trading up 542 00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 4: for Trevor Penny and trading multiple first on picks for 543 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:02,920 Speaker 4: Chris o Lobby. They just do whatever the hell they want. 544 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 4: Give this contract to taysoon Mill. 545 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:04,880 Speaker 3: They don't care. 546 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:06,159 Speaker 6: It's fun. 547 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 5: It's definitely fun to watch because I'd respected to a 548 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:12,880 Speaker 5: degree just the never tank philosophy. 549 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:16,120 Speaker 6: Yeah, we're not bottoming out. We're going for it. 550 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,120 Speaker 5: But it's just starting to deteriorate, and I think this 551 00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 5: year is really one of the heaviest times you can see, 552 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 5: oh wow, this is kind of going to be a 553 00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:26,320 Speaker 5: multi year rebuild for them to get back to where 554 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 5: they want to be. 555 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 4: But like your Falcons and like the Bucks, this division 556 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 4: is is pretty pretty lousy. So everyone's got hope, and 557 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:37,360 Speaker 4: so the Saints still have hope at three and four, 558 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 4: but I'm kind of glad they're three and four because 559 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 4: they deserve to be three and four. 560 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 3: They don't deserve to be four and three. 561 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 4: Let's finish by talking some positive about the Jaguars, maybe 562 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:49,360 Speaker 4: where we see them going from here. I've been really 563 00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 4: impressed this year with Foye Olukon. He's the one who 564 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:57,120 Speaker 4: got the pick six here. And Darius Williams, who really 565 00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 4: struggled last year on the outside. He came over from 566 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 4: the Rams winning the Super Bowl there where he was 567 00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:06,520 Speaker 4: a great story, really struggled a year ago and this 568 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 4: year has been making a lot of good plays on 569 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 4: the football and I believe he's the one that tipped 570 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:13,199 Speaker 4: up that pass that ended up being taken back in 571 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:15,720 Speaker 4: by a LUA Kan and I'm just seeing a lot 572 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:17,800 Speaker 4: of players that are a little more comfortable in this 573 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:22,400 Speaker 4: Mike Caldwell scheme in their second year, and they came 574 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 4: into tonight leading the league in turnovers. They forced one tonight, 575 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:30,160 Speaker 4: they were without their best cornerback. Still look pretty good 576 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 4: out there for the most part. Just tell me what 577 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 4: you see in kind of what stands out with this 578 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:35,120 Speaker 4: defense this year. 579 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 5: The run defense is so good, like they just pummel 580 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 5: people up front. I thought one of the most impressive sequences, 581 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,880 Speaker 5: the suconsequences that they had was when they got down 582 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:48,920 Speaker 5: to the goal line and they gave up the first down, 583 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:51,040 Speaker 5: and it was like the sixteen play drive where Taysom 584 00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:53,479 Speaker 5: Hills scored on the fourth down, but they stuffed him 585 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 5: on first and goal, second and goal, third and goal 586 00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:58,119 Speaker 5: before they gave it up on fourth down. 587 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,880 Speaker 6: That stuff was so impressive to me. I think we just. 588 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 5: Watched how they beat up on the Saints O line 589 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 5: throughout the night. It's like, man, if they can just 590 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:11,640 Speaker 5: get something out of Trayvon Walker, because Josh Allen's here 591 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 5: this year, if they can just get something out of 592 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:16,679 Speaker 5: Trayvon Walker, like that defense could really really ascend because 593 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 5: they have the run defense, Like you said, when Tyson 594 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:20,680 Speaker 5: Campbell gets back, I think that second day is looking 595 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:23,919 Speaker 5: pretty good, especially with the development of Andre Cisco on 596 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,399 Speaker 5: the back end. You can just get another pass rusher 597 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,399 Speaker 5: to pair at that run defense and the development of 598 00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:32,360 Speaker 5: linebackers like that defense is gonna be just a pain 599 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 5: when it gets to the playoffs. 600 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, and Trayvon Walker does contribute in the running game. 601 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 4: He's a good run defender, and they're tough to push. 602 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:45,360 Speaker 4: They've actually gotten healthier. I think Devon Hamilton was he back, 603 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:46,159 Speaker 4: he's big. 604 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 6: He's coming back. He's a backer, is coming back soon. 605 00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:49,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, and. 606 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:54,440 Speaker 4: If they're somewhat balanced, they got to get their offense 607 00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:56,800 Speaker 4: to improve. But this was one of those games where 608 00:27:56,800 --> 00:28:00,399 Speaker 4: it was like they were negative to and turn in 609 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:02,960 Speaker 4: the first half, and they went into halftime up seventeen 610 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 4: six despite the Saints I'm doing I'm counting it now 611 00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:09,679 Speaker 4: got seven possessions in the first half and so and 612 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 4: the Jaguars only held them to six, So I look 613 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 4: at that stuff. Then they hold them to a field goal, 614 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 4: then they get the pick six. So at that point 615 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 4: in the game, we're into the fourth quarter. Now the 616 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:20,639 Speaker 4: defense has already been on the field for nine or 617 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 4: ten possessions. They've actually scored more points with that pick 618 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:30,360 Speaker 4: six then they've given up at that point. It's totally 619 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 4: on the Jaguars offense that the game isn't just over over. 620 00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:39,080 Speaker 4: And if the Jaguars offense didn't go three plays, four plays, 621 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 4: then first down and punt and downs and then first 622 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 4: down and punt in the second half, like this score 623 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:47,880 Speaker 4: would have been different and we would have been talking 624 00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 4: about the Jaguars, like we wouldn't be looking at a 625 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 4: twenty four spot that New Orleans put up. So it's 626 00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,360 Speaker 4: one of those things you got to watch the whole 627 00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 4: game to get the whole story, because to me, the 628 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:02,720 Speaker 4: Jaguars offense for the most part let them down, you 629 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:05,560 Speaker 4: know after that first quarter surge, and the defense won 630 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:06,160 Speaker 4: them this game. 631 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:09,720 Speaker 6: Yeah, this was a defensive led performance. For sure. 632 00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:14,160 Speaker 5: I would find this performance a little concerning if I 633 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 5: was a Jaguars fan, because, like, you've made it to 634 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 5: the playoffs, you've had a signature moment by coming back 635 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 5: from the Chargers and even playing well against the Chief 636 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:24,719 Speaker 5: for the most part in that the visual game, so 637 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 5: now you kind of want a little bit more and 638 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 5: to me, like a performance like that when we're stuck 639 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 5: in park for like two quarters at a time. That's 640 00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 5: a little bit every. 641 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 3: Game though this year. That right, I know that was 642 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 3: against the Colts last week. 643 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 5: Actually, even the Falcons in the second half, they weren't 644 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 5: really moving even. 645 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:44,959 Speaker 4: The Chiefs game, which they didn't win, but they were 646 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 4: kind of stuck there the whole time. 647 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:49,880 Speaker 3: It's it's been consistent like this. It's a little concern. 648 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 4: But when they got the ball, I gotta say, for 649 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,120 Speaker 4: some reason, I just was like, the Saints are gonna 650 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:57,240 Speaker 4: mess this up one way or another. Like even when 651 00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 4: it was tied, I was like, I don't know how 652 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 4: the Saints are going to lose, but they're gonna lose it. 653 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:04,320 Speaker 4: And to the Jaguars credit, they get the ball back 654 00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 4: after punting it three forty five left after a terrible 655 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 4: punt on the Saints forty six second play of that drive, 656 00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 4: Christian Kirk just made Honey Badger look slow. Kind of 657 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 4: hurt my heart because I'm a big Honey Badger fan, 658 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:21,760 Speaker 4: but tough, I've never seen Christian Kirk look so good. 659 00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 4: So give them some credit for you know, their best 660 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 4: two players on offense for the most part, is Lawrence 661 00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:30,160 Speaker 4: and etn. But Kirk's probably third right now. And Kirk 662 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:32,360 Speaker 4: made a big time play there forty four yards to 663 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 4: go win the game. 664 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, that was that was like a poor one 665 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:39,440 Speaker 5: out for Honey Badger moment because he got dusted and 666 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:41,719 Speaker 5: it was it was one of those moments where so 667 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 5: where Christian Kirk you could see the he was accelerating 668 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:47,120 Speaker 5: away and Honey Badgers kind of stay at the same speed. 669 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 5: And I was like, oh, no, it ain't quite you know, 670 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:54,479 Speaker 5: twenty eighteen anymore. But I think I think that's kind 671 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 5: of where the Saints are going to exist though, for 672 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 5: the next few years. Right now for the Jaguars are though, 673 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 5: because it's a young it's a young, good roster. You 674 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 5: can still ad pieces too. 675 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 3: No, and they'll they'll have decisions to make. 676 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 4: Josh Allen is having a crazy good contract year, so 677 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:09,720 Speaker 4: they might have to use the tag with him. But 678 00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 4: Calvin Ridley is a free agent too, so there's a. 679 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:14,280 Speaker 3: Lot coming up. But they don't have to worry about 680 00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 3: that that they got a chance to do things this year. 681 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:19,760 Speaker 4: In this AFC. They are the favorites in the a 682 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 4: f C South.

It's a competition. 695 00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 4: I wanted to take the Jags, I said it, and 696 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,720 Speaker 4: then Lawrence's injury freaked me out. I didn't want to 697 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 4: have to wait until game time, so I got off 698 00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:00,160 Speaker 4: the Jags. So Egles better come through with me. Who 699 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:08,240 Speaker 4: you got in that game? Okay, that's Charles, still still thinking, 700 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 4: not just about the Super Bowl, but the following year 701 00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:14,040 Speaker 4: when I was with you, I was at I was 702 00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:16,960 Speaker 4: in Philadelphia. For some reason, I liked that Falcons team 703 00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 4: because I wanted them to get some redemption. I think 704 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:20,959 Speaker 4: they had a chance to win the Super Bowl that 705 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:25,120 Speaker 4: next year. People don't remember that, And Matt Ryan sailed that, uh. 706 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 5: Well you know what we almost had that What you 707 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 5: know we almost had that year was Falcon Saints NFC 708 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:34,040 Speaker 5: Title game because that was the Stephan Diggs catch last 709 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:37,480 Speaker 5: year too. One play away in each game from Falcon 710 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 5: Saints NFC Title game, which is basically like World War Three. 711 00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:40,760 Speaker 3: Yeah. 712 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:44,560 Speaker 4: Instead, we got Brandon Graham strips up and strip sacking 713 00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 4: my guy Tom Brady in the Super Bowl Charles great 714 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:51,320 Speaker 4: job again.
