Yeah, it was almost 15 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:58,840 Speaker 1: as if they had forgotten what to do in the 16 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:03,400 Speaker 1: victorious locker room. I know what to do. You've been 17 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 1: waiting to pull that one out for a couple of weeks. 18 00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:07,840 Speaker 1: Good morning, Welcome to Jags Drive Time, brought to you 19 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 1: by our friends at Jed Home Loans.

Yeah, 23 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 1: I might need a little bit here and there.

Um, let's start with the 27 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: Jags Twitter pool on Wait, I get this right before 28 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 1: the season's done? Is right? Drive time poll on Twitter, 29 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 1: brought to you by Expedity. Who's the Expinity Player of 30 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 1: the game? Ronnie Harrison came up with the biggest play 31 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:46,320 Speaker 1: in the game on fourth down with his sack of 32 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 1: Andrew Luck Unique and Gokoi made the play that saved 33 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 1: the touchdown. Uh, Josh Lambo scored the only points. Maybe 34 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 1: there's someone else that you've got in mind. You can 35 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:58,919 Speaker 1: vote on Twitter who's the Exfinity player of the game? Um, 36 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 1: where do you even start with this one? Here's the 37 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 1: thing that it's just so astounding. Um. I didn't think 38 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 1: the Jaguars were gonna win the ball game yesterday. But 39 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:07,400 Speaker 1: not not because they didn't think that they would try hard, 40 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 1: or have a good plan or any of that stuff. 41 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:11,800 Speaker 1: I didn't think the offense would be productive and it 42 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:16,839 Speaker 1: wasn't okay. But I didn't comprehend. I didn't even fantasize 43 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 1: that the defense would shut out Andrew Luck, which had 44 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,639 Speaker 1: up to that point never happened in his NFL career. Yeah, 45 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:26,520 Speaker 1: you didn't expect to shut out and uh, I've got 46 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 1: a lot of emails about where has the defense been. Well, 47 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,639 Speaker 1: it's been good all year. You know, the myth that 48 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:36,959 Speaker 1: it's it's it's been a problem, the myth that it's 49 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,640 Speaker 1: hasn't played up to its potential. It's played very well. 50 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 1: And I think if the offense had played where it 51 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: was last year, it would be very comfortable to last 52 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 1: year that said, this was superhuman and they got some breaks. 53 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: They the Colts probably should have kicked a couple of 54 00:02:55,600 --> 00:03:00,160 Speaker 1: field goals. So the shutout was really some circumstance. It's 55 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 1: in there, but the overall performance of the defense to 56 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 1: keep that offense no man, how many breaks they got 57 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: with Frank Reich's decision making, the fact is Andrew Luck 58 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 1: Had's head then three touchdown passes the game freight straight games. 59 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 1: Blame you know, if you want to blame uh, Frank 60 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 1: Reich for that, fine, except that here was a guy 61 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 1: who thrown at least one touchdown, which is all it 62 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 1: would have taken yesterday in just a couple of times. 63 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,639 Speaker 1: You know, argument could be made that Reich should have 64 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: kicked it at the end of the game, get it. 65 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 1: There were a few goals to be taken. But to 66 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: hold that team without a touchdown after the way they played, 67 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 1: and to get the pressure they got on Luck with 68 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 1: an offensive line that he'd given up no sacks or 69 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 1: on one sack and what six games, it was a 70 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 1: phenomenal effort. Uh. The defense hasn't been bad, but yesterday 71 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 1: was absolutely the best I've seen since I've been back. Well. 72 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: And look, I understand why Reich went for it down there. 73 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: I mean, he had two fifteen yard penalties that went 74 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 1: his way on that drive and gave him first in 75 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: goal with the best red zone offense and football. Plus 76 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 1: he had to know one touchdown and I win right right, 77 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 1: one touchdowns all the times. Yeah, I think at that 78 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: point on fourth, yeah, I guess the offense take the 79 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: cot and didn't get off their goal line, right. I 80 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:20,159 Speaker 1: think you take on a point in that situation just because, um, 81 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,599 Speaker 1: you know, the Jaguars an't gonna leave the ball so 82 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 1: if you kick to them, you're going to get the 83 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,559 Speaker 1: ball back within not twenty yards a field goal range. 84 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 1: He also figured that's not gonna be your last opportunity 85 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 1: to score, not with an offense that have been averaging 86 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 1: created four point six over the last five games. So 87 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: all right, let's hop into big things. All right. Big 88 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 1: thing one is that winning feeling. The streak is over 89 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:46,280 Speaker 1: and Kalias campbell smile postgame says it all. It feels 90 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,280 Speaker 1: good to finally get in the win column. It's been 91 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 1: way too long, you know, And honestly, you know, I 92 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: just want to stay in this moment, you know, and 93 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: and enjoy it and hopefully we can carry that over 94 00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:02,159 Speaker 1: another way and come Thursday. You know, it says something 95 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 1: that we're talking about a win this morning, John uh 96 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: in a week in which you lose your offensive coordinators fired, 97 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 1: your quarterback is benched, your star running back, your best 98 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: offensive player is suspended, and you lose your best offensive 99 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 1: lineman Andrew Norwell, at least your highest paid offensive lineman, 100 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 1: and a guy that you counted on. That's not three strikes, 101 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 1: that's four strikes in a week, and that they could 102 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 1: come out and beat a colts team that had won 103 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 1: five in a row and looked like they were streaking 104 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 1: towards the playoffs. Um, that's such just a winning feeling 105 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,479 Speaker 1: this morning. These guys they accomplished something yesterday. It was interesting. 106 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 1: And I mentioned this on our when we spoke after 107 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:44,479 Speaker 1: the game, rapid recap, Good jobs, get a sponsor for that? 108 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: Um it? Uh dream Founder songs. When I was talking 109 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 1: to different players in the locker room, Unique and got 110 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,280 Speaker 1: Wain a j Boy in particular, I was struck by 111 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 1: they kept going back to what they wanted to accomplish 112 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 1: yesterday and what they still want to accomplish with this season. 113 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:03,600 Speaker 1: And I even stopped in Goquay on the way out 114 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 1: of the locker room and I said, is it telling 115 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: that you guys are still talking about accomplishing because fans 116 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: on the outside will look at this and say, all, 117 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 1: you're playing for his draft position. It's over and you 118 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 1: expected to see a fragmented team and uh it, he said, 119 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: fans can think they want to think on the on 120 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 1: that front, but here's what we're doing. I thought that 121 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:31,039 Speaker 1: showed yesterday. I expected. I didn't expect them to quit 122 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,719 Speaker 1: because I just don't believe the typical NFL teams quit, 123 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 1: but I expected. Uh, there are times you have let downs. 124 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 1: There are times where once the playoffs are out of 125 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 1: the equation, all the energy you had pregame goes away 126 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 1: with a bad break. They had a lot of bad 127 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: breaks yesterday, and they still managed to overcome that. They 128 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 1: played together, they played his one. So um in that circumstance, 129 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 1: all the stuff you mentioned, plus getting knocked out of 130 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 1: the playoffs the week before, and it's not over technically, 131 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, right, Uh, it's distant. All 132 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 1: of that plus the fact that I just mentioned to 133 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 1: have that was you know, again, as impressive a uh 134 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 1: group effort as any I've ever seen. And Jalen Ramsey, Um, 135 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 1: all right, where you're going again? You're out of the playoffs. 136 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: I had heard last week there's a good chance he 137 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 1: wouldn't play. Um, so he was clearly as close as 138 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 1: he's been, maybe since Tennessee last year to not playing 139 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 1: and comes out and not only plays, but it plays 140 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: at an extremely high level. Two pass breakups to play 141 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: the game at the end of the game. Um, you 142 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: might there's times where I think people have questioned how 143 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 1: much he cares about it, how much he cares about 144 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 1: the team, etcetera, etcetera. I think yesterday proved a lot 145 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 1: on that front. A couple of thoughts. First of all, 146 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 1: when you are three and eight and have lost seven 147 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 1: in a row and everything that happened last week happens, 148 00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: guys tend to start thinking about themselves, right whether they 149 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 1: should play with their injury. You know, guys started going 150 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 1: We saw Rachine Mathis do this at the end of 151 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 1: two thousand and six when the season was lost, going 152 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 1: for picks in Kansas City in a ballgame because he 153 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 1: needed too for a big bonus, and it played out 154 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: very poorly that day. So even the best players, the 155 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 1: highest character players, tend to tend to think about themselves. 156 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 1: I have been beating the table the last couple of 157 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 1: weeks about who and how Jalen has grown, who has become, 158 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 1: how he's grown since that incredibly bad performance in Indianapolis. 159 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 1: And by the way, just to be completely transparent on this, 160 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:35,839 Speaker 1: Jalen wasn't just bad on the field. He was bad 161 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 1: on the sidelines that day. He was sitting over by himself. 162 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 1: He wasn't connected to what was going on, and I 163 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 1: thought it looked like he didn't want to be there. Yeah, 164 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 1: this thing could go downhill. Well, he stood afterwards and 165 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 1: talked and in the locker room, talked that week, and 166 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 1: in the postgame talk that week, and since then he 167 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:56,079 Speaker 1: has grown in my estimation as a person and is 168 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,440 Speaker 1: a player. Here's the thing he said yesterday that I 169 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 1: have never heard him say character. He said it showed 170 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 1: our character when he said that, I went ding ding 171 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 1: ding ding ding. All of a sudden, he is growing 172 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 1: from the best player to a guy who understands that 173 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 1: they need him to be a significant leader in that 174 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 1: locker room too. And he's not going to be Calais right. 175 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: But when he starts talking about character, he's sending the 176 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 1: signal to everyone else, I'm watching your character. I'm watching 177 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 1: my own character. Let's make sure so all that you 178 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 1: talked about about guys staying together, that's character. And I 179 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 1: think Jalen is showing his right now and it's a 180 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 1: huge improvement over that in Theanopolis game. And the play 181 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 1: he made at the end of the game. Um, that's 182 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 1: not a stat play, that's not a selfish me play. 183 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 1: That's a smart play knowing that I've got to do 184 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 1: something to keep him in bounds. Uh. If it was 185 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 1: not caring about this. You just push him out of 186 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 1: bounds and move on. It was, by the way, the 187 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 1: correct call. He stopped his forward moment him enough where 188 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: the play technically had and I'm talking about the play 189 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 1: on the tight end the end of the game, and uh, 190 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: it was the correct call. I heard some people wonder 191 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:11,599 Speaker 1: it because the receiver went out of bounds if it 192 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: should have been he stopped the Ford momentum, which it 193 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 1: was an otherworldly play athletically and awareness wise. Um, I 194 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 1: shouldn't even say. I was gonna say a lot of 195 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,200 Speaker 1: people have the athletic a buddy where they don't, but 196 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: very few players have the awareness in that situation to 197 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 1: know that you've got to stop the fordmamentum to keep 198 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 1: him in back. You know exactly what to do. Another 199 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: guy that stood up to meet character wiseed with Miles 200 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,679 Speaker 1: Jack the past few weeks in the locker room. He 201 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:39,679 Speaker 1: hasn't really wanted to talk after the game. Today he 202 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 1: was like, come on, let's talk. And he said that 203 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 1: this defense has played finally a complete game played a 204 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 1: complete game. Man. That's that's that's that was what what 205 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 1: was so cool And just to see the deepeness fine, around, 206 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 1: Jayalen out there making players get out there, Ronnie the 207 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 1: d line getting sex. I mean we we was back 208 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 1: looking like sex with Villa, So that was that was good. 209 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 1: And he made this play where he got Ebron up 210 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 1: into the air and Telvin Smith was able to knock 211 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,160 Speaker 1: the ball free and then heads up he went and 212 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: found the football that was on fourth down. It was 213 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 1: a huge moment in the bowl game. May have made 214 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:11,440 Speaker 1: a better play at the end of the game. Frankly, 215 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 1: Brian Um two plays before the jail and play, I 216 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 1: believe it was Ebron had the ball on the sidelines 217 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 1: and was heading to get out of bound, and I 218 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 1: think there's probably twenty five is right seconds left Um 219 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 1: athletically to chase him down to keep bebrin and bounds there. Uh. Again, 220 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 1: it just showed you the effort and in the awareness 221 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 1: situation and the athletic ability. I thought those two plays 222 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: by Ramsey and Jack at the end of the game 223 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 1: are those hidden plays that it saved what at least 224 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 1: seconds and what can Luck do without any times? Her 225 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 1: big thing too has to be dynamite on defense. The 226 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 1: first time Andrew Luck has been shut out in his career, 227 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:58,959 Speaker 1: longest active streak in the NFL thirty four straight games 228 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 1: with a passing touch down. The Jack snap that streak. 229 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 1: Marcel Darius comments on the defense being back him wanting 230 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:08,679 Speaker 1: to play on this defense. This feels like the defense 231 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,199 Speaker 1: that I became a part of the whole time I've 232 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 1: been here. I feel like we've played ass off and 233 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 1: we tried and we tried hard as we can, so 234 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:24,079 Speaker 1: we can't can't ask for none more. So yesterday we 235 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:27,720 Speaker 1: talked about Miles Jack and Jalen Ramsey, a j Boyer. 236 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 1: It was as if he was in the colts meeting 237 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 1: room right. I mean, he was running the routes. He 238 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:35,079 Speaker 1: had a couple of huge tackles. When Ronnie Harrison, who 239 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,240 Speaker 1: got his first start, made the sack on fourth down. 240 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 1: If he hadn't gotten him, Marcel Darius would have because 241 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 1: he picked the center up and rolled him on his 242 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 1: way back. Um, you saw what Unique and Gonquay and 243 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 1: Clay's Campbell got done. But when the protections rolled to them, 244 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 1: Dwan Smoot and Tavin Bryan were all over the field. 245 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 1: What you saw was the best defensive performance maybe we've 246 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 1: ever seen from this defense going back to last year. 247 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:03,079 Speaker 1: But it was a a a spread out performance that 248 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:07,440 Speaker 1: everyone contributed. Well, you've seen them all and you saw 249 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: better defenses in the mid two thousand's then, and I 250 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,680 Speaker 1: probably we saw in the nearly night best defense performance 251 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 1: and franchise history. I think, yeah, I think if it's 252 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 1: not Steelers, it's not. Those are the two that stand 253 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:25,680 Speaker 1: out the most. Um. If it's not the best defensive performance, 254 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 1: we could argue about it because what they did. Andrew 255 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 1: Luck yesterday admitted you thought at the end of the 256 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:35,719 Speaker 1: ball game that all Luck needed was a touchdown that 257 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 1: because the Jaguars hadn't got absolutely everyone, you saw that 258 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 1: coming and then the defense came through with that at 259 00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 1: the end of the ball game. Yeah, I want to 260 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:46,559 Speaker 1: say it's strong. Um. I really like what they did 261 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 1: two weeks ago against Pittsburgh. They couldn't hold off for 262 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: Rothersburger forever, and the offense didn't contribute anything that day either. Um. 263 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: But if you go back and look at the way 264 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 1: that this defense is played over the last month, there 265 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 1: are signs that this was from it. But this is 266 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 1: stellar beyond words, here's the case for it. I think 267 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:09,199 Speaker 1: in this era to do this different era and uh 268 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 1: nine nothing was what year was at two thousand and 269 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,480 Speaker 1: six against the Steelers out here and I say, I 270 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 1: remember watching that game and it was a phenomenal performance. 271 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 1: But I don't think that's Steeler's offense. Uh. I could 272 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 1: be wrong, because with a big Ben, they've had some 273 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 1: really good offense. He was good, they were. It was 274 00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 1: a good offense. Uh. The Ravens game twelve seven was 275 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 1: in two thousand and eleven, and that gets lost a 276 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 1: little bit because it was a five and eleven season. 277 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: It was a disappointment, but nobody expected to win that game. 278 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 1: But again, that was a Ray Rice driven offense. I 279 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 1: don't know that it was the offense and the quarterback 280 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 1: that she did. Uh. Yesterday, this was an offense. It 281 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 1: was scoring thirty three points a game. Coming in and 282 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 1: Andrew Luck was being talked about and probably still should 283 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,680 Speaker 1: be talked about as possible m VP candidate, and to 284 00:14:56,760 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 1: shut it down and hold them scoreless with all the 285 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 1: circumstances that we've talked about, Um, it shouldn't get lost 286 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 1: to history. How it does. Ronnie Harrison, Um, you know 287 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,480 Speaker 1: he he had the bone headed play early where on 288 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 1: third down in five and I wrote about this in 289 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 1: Quick Thoughts. The lack of situational awareness on the part 290 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 1: of the Shawn Gibson to get up after third and 291 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:22,200 Speaker 1: five and get in Ebron's face. Talvin Smith goes over 292 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 1: and pulls him away, and then Ronnie jumps in following. 293 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 1: You know, it was bad situation awareness because you just 294 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 1: got Luck off the field and now you're giving the 295 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 1: ball back to him and if they score a touchdown, 296 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:37,040 Speaker 1: I just felt there, Yeah, the game is right. They 297 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 1: gotta play smarter than that. The way he rebounded and 298 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 1: played the rest of the game, and obviously the sack 299 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 1: stands out. Um boy, I guess it's because you were 300 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 1: paying church and he had been a contributor for a 301 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 1: long time that you stayed with him. But this guy 302 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 1: in the starting lineup, and we may talk about his 303 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 1: move into the starting lineup in this game for years 304 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 1: to come, because I think and I think those guys 305 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,480 Speaker 1: think he is going to be a key contributor to 306 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 1: this defense for the long term. But you've been here 307 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 1: since earlier in the season that this is the guy 308 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 1: out of the draft class who was showing the most. 309 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 1: I think the good news for that is it looks 310 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 1: like Tavian Bryant's coming on and even even more than 311 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:22,360 Speaker 1: just getting more plays, etcetera, etcetera. Uh, he looks like 312 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:28,240 Speaker 1: he's starting to get it. But Ronnie Harrison um the 313 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 1: athleticism he shows it's really important. We've talked about the 314 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 1: draft class needing to be good next year, and he 315 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 1: is definitely a guy as some players start to leave, 316 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:43,480 Speaker 1: he's starting to look like he could be a core 317 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 1: guy and a star player, and they're gonna need that. 318 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Go ahead, okay. You had mentioned earlier in 319 00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 1: the game to Shaun Gibson, but it was his best 320 00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 1: game in about a month too. He played really well 321 00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 1: that one. He does that, though, he has to those 322 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 1: moments where you're like, whoa, whoa, Hold on, you're a veteran. 323 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:04,640 Speaker 1: You gotta know better than this. So he's gonna talk 324 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 1: at you. Yeah, well, at some point you need to 325 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 1: stop talking because that will cost your game when the 326 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 1: offense isn't playing well. Go ahead, Ronnie, tackle for a 327 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:14,399 Speaker 1: lost quarterback. Hurry a sack. D J. Hayden says, the 328 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:17,359 Speaker 1: sky is the limit for that guy. Ronnie talks about 329 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:19,359 Speaker 1: the sack that was a huge moment in the game. 330 00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 1: Coach died up a blitz and I knew I had 331 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 1: to get there quick, you know, being fourth down. Knew 332 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 1: Luck was gonna throw the ball quick and we'll get 333 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:28,639 Speaker 1: the ball out of his hands. So um, I just 334 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 1: got the snap, got the snap, got off on the 335 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 1: snap quick. Just try to make a play and look 336 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:34,920 Speaker 1: at Darius just driving the center back. You're right, you 337 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 1: would have been right there. I thought it was interesting though, 338 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:40,920 Speaker 1: when I was reading Malie Jackson's transcript that yeah, he said, 339 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 1: Ronnie play Harrison played great. But he was the first 340 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: to point out the sports and like penalty and says 341 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:47,959 Speaker 1: that can't happen. No, no, it can't. So a lot 342 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,119 Speaker 1: of guys applauded him, but Malik was the one that said, 343 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:55,159 Speaker 1: this team has got to play smarter football, uh, you know, 344 00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,119 Speaker 1: going forward. But if you want to be able to 345 00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:00,199 Speaker 1: win when when you're as hampered as they are on 346 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:02,640 Speaker 1: the offensive side, you need every break you can get. 347 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:05,639 Speaker 1: You you can't shoot yourself in the foot, you know. 348 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,360 Speaker 1: And that goes for Taven Brian there on the field goal, 349 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 1: and Doug Moron said afterwards, hey, we talked all week 350 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 1: in meetings about not attacking the long snapper and he 351 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: goes and does that Now worked out to their favor 352 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:17,640 Speaker 1: because it took a field goal off and they got 353 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:19,879 Speaker 1: you know, it all worked out. Brian might be a 354 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:24,880 Speaker 1: football savant, figured it out, take those points off the board. 355 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 1: Calais Campbell played very well, and Tavan moved inside and 356 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:31,439 Speaker 1: was able to rotate with Molik and play there in 357 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:34,719 Speaker 1: that three technique. You've got something going forward there. He played. 358 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:37,919 Speaker 1: He played very well. And you know what, before we 359 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,639 Speaker 1: get the last big thing, A lot of people in 360 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:46,920 Speaker 1: the last couple of months that's actually following along. Yeah, 361 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:51,000 Speaker 1: let me roll my eyes at you. People have said 362 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 1: Brian's a bust. And I remember two thousand one and 363 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,399 Speaker 1: you would already gone to Indianapolis, so you don't recall this. 364 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 1: But Marcus Trade was the pick in the draft and 365 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 1: he couldn't get on the field and he got his 366 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 1: butt kicked by Steve Hutchinson, who was another first round 367 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 1: pick that year in a Week five matchup in Seattle, 368 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:10,680 Speaker 1: and everyone said, the guys at bust. They blew this one. 369 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,360 Speaker 1: And he went on to become a three time Pro 370 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,600 Speaker 1: Bowl defensive tackle and one of the best of his era. 371 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,560 Speaker 1: Inside he was big, strong and fast. So it has 372 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 1: to happen now, it has happened. Now give up on 373 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 1: a Taven Brian. Uh Remember people try to give up 374 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:30,119 Speaker 1: a Marcus Trout, So give the guy some time. Yeah, absolutely, Okay, 375 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 1: Big thing three. Nashville is next. This team is heading 376 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,920 Speaker 1: a tennesseee with some momentum. The Titans escaped a win 377 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:39,800 Speaker 1: with the Jets forty seconds left and they get a touchdown. 378 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:44,120 Speaker 1: Clay's Campbell says, this team isn't given up yet. It's 379 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 1: easy for people to throw in the towel in our situation, 380 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 1: but this team has so much character and you know, 381 00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 1: you know, given all the mistakes and maybe we have 382 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:55,160 Speaker 1: a lot of fightingness. And I mean you got seeing 383 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,359 Speaker 1: it today. You know we're we're not done. We're keep 384 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,639 Speaker 1: playing ball and keep leaving leaving up there, you know, 385 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:02,920 Speaker 1: and other guys who after fighting playing through Hendry still 386 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 1: given our current circumstance, you know, I got some much 387 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 1: respect for those guys. This team is special. You were 388 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 1: playing like this and it was this opening the whole year. 389 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:11,920 Speaker 1: But it is what it is. I was living a moment. 390 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,680 Speaker 1: What's enjoy and we'll trying to keep a goal. Alright. 391 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:18,120 Speaker 1: So the question is can this defense go to Nashville 392 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,680 Speaker 1: on Thursday night and play well against Marcus Mariota, who 393 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 1: is not having a stellar season. Doesn't look like that 394 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 1: elite franchise guy where he was drafted at number two, 395 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 1: and yet seems to have this team's number. He makes 396 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 1: plays when it counts and when it matters, and he 397 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:37,879 Speaker 1: seems to make the plays that break team's heart. I 398 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:39,680 Speaker 1: didn't see much of the game yesterday, but he did 399 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:42,160 Speaker 1: the Jets on a couple of plays that I saw. 400 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 1: We think he's not playing well obviously, and he's running 401 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 1: for thirty five yards and you look at the status 402 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 1: sheet and that's the only thing he's done all game. 403 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 1: But he's done it, so I think he I think 404 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:56,880 Speaker 1: it's it. It's an intriguing game. It's uh to pull 405 00:20:56,960 --> 00:21:00,880 Speaker 1: from a memory that may even predate ashlynd Uh sort 406 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 1: of feels like two thousand, well sort of, um pre 407 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 1: date your time in grade school, right, Um. If you remember, 408 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 1: they lost Tennessee three times the year before I recall, 409 00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 1: and the game out here where I remember is the 410 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:23,360 Speaker 1: queling mccardo game, and they wound up beating him. Tennessee 411 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 1: was on the way to the playoffs. Jacksonville was already 412 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,200 Speaker 1: out of it at that point, they had just gotten 413 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 1: rolled by Tennessee probably two or three weeks before in 414 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 1: a Monday night in Nation Many night bad where it 415 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 1: felt like that was a Frank White check game, and 416 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 1: it felt like the low point of the season came 417 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,520 Speaker 1: back and beat him out here. To do that against 418 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:47,160 Speaker 1: Tennessee would be a second interesting character game in a row. 419 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 1: The flip side is and I was not impressed with 420 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 1: the quarterback change yesterday. I didn't think that watching him 421 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 1: that he is the best option going forward my opinion. 422 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,200 Speaker 1: Talking to some people, the offensive line looked very susceptible 423 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 1: to the rush against the not very good rushing team, 424 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,080 Speaker 1: and I was told by two different people that it 425 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 1: was because the quarterback was hesitant. Now looked hesitant. Sure 426 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:13,440 Speaker 1: did to me. So here's the question, how much better 427 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:16,440 Speaker 1: is the offense? How much better is Kessler on Thursday 428 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 1: night with Leonard for Nette in the lineup? We hope 429 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,920 Speaker 1: he's a lot better. And that's the hope, and that's 430 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:26,360 Speaker 1: what you You have to assume that the game plan, 431 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 1: the approach yesterday was largely because they didn't feel like 432 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,119 Speaker 1: they had any weapons and it was a place safe 433 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 1: check down. You often, you know, see games where quarterback 434 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:40,440 Speaker 1: checks check down. Uh. He checked down in an inordinate 435 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 1: number of times yesterday. Um. I don't think you can 436 00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 1: go back to Blake this week because it's it's a 437 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:47,920 Speaker 1: short week, and you've got to think that a lot 438 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 1: of the game plan will have been It's just hard 439 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 1: to make Uh. I would Well, here's the thing, and 440 00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: I sort of rest with this back and forth because 441 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:04,439 Speaker 1: I figure we're gonna talk about it. I'd be tempted to. 442 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:08,200 Speaker 1: At the same time, I don't think the reason that 443 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:11,879 Speaker 1: you went to Cody in the first place was because 444 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:14,639 Speaker 1: you thought Cody was fantastic, or you did that before 445 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:17,879 Speaker 1: you went because you were really worried about what you 446 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:19,679 Speaker 1: had seen from Blake for two or three weeks in 447 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: a row. So if that was enough to force you 448 00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:28,800 Speaker 1: away from him, is one game of this enough to 449 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 1: make you go back? Um? I probably would go back 450 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,159 Speaker 1: if it was a Sunday. At the same time, you 451 00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:39,080 Speaker 1: have the new coordinator as well, and now you're throwing 452 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:42,040 Speaker 1: a bunch of stuff, and it's just the hesitancy. The 453 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:45,480 Speaker 1: he didn't he didn't run as well as Blake does. 454 00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 1: He didn't have that timing down, you know. He just 455 00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 1: and I get it he's been sitting on the batch. 456 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to pick on him, and I get 457 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 1: that also that your future is not on the roster 458 00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:56,920 Speaker 1: at quarterback. I'm just saying that, if it's me, i'd 459 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 1: rather see five with the ball in his hands over 460 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,280 Speaker 1: the last month because I believe he gives you a 461 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 1: better chance of winning. Yeah, and I know we're going 462 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:04,639 Speaker 1: to talk about this in z own sting shots, so 463 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 1: I don't want to go too far down the road. 464 00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:10,359 Speaker 1: I would have first eight or nine games. Five. Yes, 465 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:13,879 Speaker 1: it's the last couple that's sort of forced them away 466 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 1: from it. So it's a tough spot. I wish I 467 00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 1: had a better answer. I wouldn't do it this week 468 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,720 Speaker 1: because of the short week, because you have to figure 469 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 1: that a lot of what they worked on last week 470 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,439 Speaker 1: is going to be there, because it's hard to do 471 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:28,119 Speaker 1: it in two days. And I can't help but go 472 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 1: back to the conversation we had last week where we 473 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:31,720 Speaker 1: said that we thought Borrels would never take a snap 474 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 1: in Jacksville again, and now, based on Kessler's performance, we're 475 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 1: going back and yeah, Well, I mean that's what happens 476 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:40,159 Speaker 1: when you do when you make moves like this, that seem, 477 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:43,960 Speaker 1: you know, knee jerk. Often you jerk back the other way. 478 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 1: It just can't help it. It's not a solution. The 479 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,280 Speaker 1: solution is not on the roster. All right, We'll take 480 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:51,719 Speaker 1: a break when we come back. Highlights from yesterday's game 481 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:55,160 Speaker 1: plus still Ahead, ozone snapshot, NFL headlines, and we'll pay off. 482 00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 1: He will, he won't, He might From Friday's program.

Rolling right along 507 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:48,640 Speaker 1: here on a Monday morning, Jaguar is six nothing winners yesterday, 508 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 1: snapping the long losing streak. Really short week. Here. Players 509 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 1: are in late in the afternoon. They've got to walk 510 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 1: through today and tomorrow. Um, you know the players are 511 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:03,679 Speaker 1: are They're ambivalent on the whole Thursday night thing, you know, 512 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 1: I mean they get it. There's more money that's in 513 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:08,199 Speaker 1: their pocket because what it fox A billion dollars for 514 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:10,440 Speaker 1: a couple of years of this package, but it's tough 515 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:12,600 Speaker 1: on players to turn around and play so quickly. Yeah, 516 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:16,160 Speaker 1: it feels like the games have been a little better 517 00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:19,159 Speaker 1: this year. I mean I've I've watched a few of 518 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 1: them and been compelled to keep watching the Saints. That 519 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 1: Cowboys is pretty good on the other hand, and you 520 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:31,439 Speaker 1: saw the Saints offense really struggle on the road the 521 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 1: other night. Doesn't feel like that would have happened on 522 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,359 Speaker 1: a Sunday game. I'm not taking anything away from Dallas, 523 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 1: but you see that a lot where teams just don't 524 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 1: play like they would if they had the extra three days, 525 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:46,479 Speaker 1: and players really dislike it. I know Richard Sherman got 526 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 1: hurt on a Thursday night last year. Uh, he's always 527 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:52,919 Speaker 1: been very anti that because it's it's very tough when 528 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:56,800 Speaker 1: the players to turn it around physically. UM, I don't 529 00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:59,879 Speaker 1: love him. I think players rightfully don't like them because 530 00:27:59,880 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 1: of that element. Uh. And it feels like if you 531 00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 1: had that second by the team I mean that people 532 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 1: talk about, which I'm against, by the way, I don't 533 00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 1: want a second by, but if you had it, perhaps 534 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:18,359 Speaker 1: you could do a little more to having fewer games 535 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 1: where it's a two day turnaround like that for teams 536 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,520 Speaker 1: because it's it's a tough thing and the quality of 537 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:27,240 Speaker 1: football often is much much lower than it would be 538 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:28,760 Speaker 1: with three more days. But it's hard for them to 539 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:31,160 Speaker 1: argue with the money, which is why the Players Association 540 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 1: and their partners in this, it's why they sign off 541 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 1: on it. It's in the collective bargaining agreement because it's 542 00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 1: one point three billion dollars and they get they get 543 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:42,720 Speaker 1: fifty of that national television money, so more than half 544 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 1: of it goes into the player's pockets. But you look 545 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 1: at a guy like Jalen Ramsey this week, who we 546 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 1: know is playing hurt on Sunday. Now he has three 547 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 1: days to get back to playing healthy at a high level. 548 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: That's that's gonna be tough for him. I'm intrigued to 549 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 1: see what will happen now. Speak that when you heard 550 00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 1: last week even Sally I'm sorry interrupted the when Doug 551 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:03,920 Speaker 1: was talking at a couple of the moves. Uh. The 552 00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:09,480 Speaker 1: teams make moves and plan almost as if it's one game. Uh, 553 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:13,440 Speaker 1: and it obviously not one game. But do you it's 554 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:16,760 Speaker 1: such a tight turnaround that you have to approach it 555 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:20,120 Speaker 1: much much differently than you would a Sunday game and 556 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 1: you have to prepare. Um, it just turns it into 557 00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 1: football was meant to be a week to week sport, 558 00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 1: and it turns it into where you're almost playing back 559 00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 1: to back and it's a weird dynamic for these teams. 560 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:34,959 Speaker 1: It'll be different highlights. All right, Let's go to the 561 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 1: first drive for the Colts. A huge play for DJ Hayting, 562 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 1: a guy that we have missed for nearly two months 563 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:43,480 Speaker 1: on the field. He steps up big first drive. The 564 00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 1: game blows. They're running barrel field looking for people to 565 00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 1: pick off all the time. Go down to day Luck 566 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 1: under pressure, throws on the run and it's s d 567 00:29:55,760 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 1: J Hayden picks it off, but he's not. And did 568 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 1: you see Calais Campbell right, so much watched this that 569 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 1: that's Quentin Nelson, the sixth overall pick in the draft 570 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 1: in a terrific guard and there's an all pro pass 571 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,960 Speaker 1: rusher who just made him look like a rookie. And 572 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 1: d J Hayden steps up with a tremendous moment because 573 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 1: remember that drive was set up by Carlos Hyde's fumble, 574 00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 1: so and that didn't feel good at the moment. You're like, oh, 575 00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:29,800 Speaker 1: it's starting. It was gonna be a watershed the other way. 576 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 1: A few thoughts on this by First of all, um, 577 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 1: they covered Hebron on that one, didn't they It's like 578 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 1: nine guys around there. They weren't going to lose that 579 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 1: same way. Uh. A Second of all, I get how people, 580 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 1: um remember the off season when every the the whole 581 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:53,880 Speaker 1: thing was how could you give Dante Moncrieff and DJ 582 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 1: hayd and all that money? Well done, Moncrief has been 583 00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 1: what he is and he hasn't been worth the contract 584 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 1: and all that. Uh. Free agency doesn't always work out. 585 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 1: It worked out to an incredible degree for this team 586 00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,960 Speaker 1: last year, but give his team some credit for making 587 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 1: the right move with d J Hayden. I think he's 588 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 1: better in coverage there in Colvin was Aaron Coleson is 589 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 1: one of my favorite players of all time around here. Uh, 590 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:22,360 Speaker 1: and I thought he was a very very very good nickel. 591 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 1: But in in pass coverage, DJ Hayden's better and he's 592 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 1: been an improvement. It was incredible play made yesterday people 593 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 1: free time play that Hayden was the twelfth pick of 594 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 1: the draft. Rough that he came out, he was a 595 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 1: very highly regarded corner and if not for the medical 596 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:38,840 Speaker 1: issues with his heart that he had at the University 597 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:41,600 Speaker 1: of Houston, he might have gone higher. And he's bounced 598 00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:45,280 Speaker 1: around in in Oakland and in Detroity, was miscast and 599 00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:47,680 Speaker 1: they found a role with him. And boy hasn't paid 600 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:49,040 Speaker 1: off with him on the field. Right. So, as soon 601 00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:51,840 Speaker 1: as you want to criticize offseason moves, and it's easy 602 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:54,600 Speaker 1: to dump the ones that don't work, that free agent 603 00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:58,960 Speaker 1: move was a very good move. Uh. And I think 604 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 1: it's important that those three corners are most likely back 605 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:06,400 Speaker 1: next year. Uh. Gives them something to build around with 606 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 1: Ronnie Harrison as a key contributor as well. Yeah, you 607 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:10,720 Speaker 1: definitely want to see more from him, that's for sure. Alright, 608 00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 1: skipping around a little bit here, let's go to the 609 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:15,760 Speaker 1: fourth quarter third down efficiency for the Jaguars offense. T 610 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 1: J Yelden sets up more points on the board. Yea 611 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:24,160 Speaker 1: yelled number could get the first out of ys get 612 00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:30,200 Speaker 1: the first out and against the Bills, won't Bilbold today. 613 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 1: It's a good snap, good hole kick his on its way. 614 00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:36,880 Speaker 1: You know, at the time when they had to settle 615 00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:38,400 Speaker 1: for a field goal, I thought, Mandy, they waste a 616 00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 1: great play. There by yelled in because here was your 617 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 1: best chance perhaps to to build into a touchdown, and 618 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 1: you felt like they needed it. As it turns out, 619 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 1: Lambau was money, but yelled in had a big day 620 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 1: as a receiver and as a running back. And while 621 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 1: he is not in the in the class of the 622 00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:58,080 Speaker 1: top runners in this game, like Leonard for nette in 623 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:02,840 Speaker 1: in Jacksonville in particular, boy, you're glad you have him. 624 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 1: He is a utility knife. He can do so many things. 625 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:07,840 Speaker 1: And this is not to discredit t. J. Yelman on lap. 626 00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 1: You had to dig deep on that offensive big play, 627 00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 1: didn't we I mean, and it shows you what the 628 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 1: game was. That was a huge play and it was 629 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:19,920 Speaker 1: the kind of play in a game like that that 630 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:22,760 Speaker 1: you had to have. Uh. Another big play also the 631 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 1: Dante moncreave eighteen yards um. There were a few that 632 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:29,960 Speaker 1: the receivers made that they turned into it. Uh. But 633 00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 1: again that was another check down, another example of what 634 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 1: they were limited to do. You just hoped with Leonard 635 00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:40,400 Speaker 1: four Nette coming back on Thursday that whatever was going 636 00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:43,640 Speaker 1: on with the game plan yesterday that felt so limited. Uh. 637 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:46,920 Speaker 1: We talked about them basically having to game plan and 638 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:50,160 Speaker 1: probably had the same game plan for Thursday. You hope that, 639 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:52,080 Speaker 1: like somewhere in the back of that book is a 640 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 1: Leonard game plan. It's different because I'm not sure you 641 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 1: want to see that again, all right? Fourth down efficiency 642 00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 1: for the Colts zero. Miles Jack in the locker room 643 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:03,080 Speaker 1: says that the Colts went back to what they thought 644 00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 1: worked in the first time these teams met, obviously didn't 645 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 1: work this time. And a quick snap of a shovel 646 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 1: pass and that's gonna be short of the goal line. 647 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:16,080 Speaker 1: Want to play by and got way who got a 648 00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:23,840 Speaker 1: piece of Wilkins on that shovel pass? He robs it. 649 00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:28,760 Speaker 1: He'll take the hand it is. How is lost water ahead? 650 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:34,719 Speaker 1: Miles Jack and Tellvin so combined unforcing the turnover and 651 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:37,719 Speaker 1: recover he would add into the flat and get him 652 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:41,319 Speaker 1: the football play locked down the tube. Look looking at 653 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:44,160 Speaker 1: the quick how does he's taken down? Funds come in 654 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:49,320 Speaker 1: Ronnie Harrison sent him and we'll see who the penalty 655 00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:53,960 Speaker 1: is against. And those three plays, as much as any, 656 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:56,920 Speaker 1: tell the story of the game. Frank Write's decision, Yanique's 657 00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 1: decision not to sell out and go and get the quarterback, 658 00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 1: which by the way, is his instinct read the play 659 00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 1: perfectly made the stop. Um, Telvin and Miles stopped to 660 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:08,799 Speaker 1: drive that looked like it had some momentum, and then 661 00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:12,080 Speaker 1: Marcel Darius and Ronnie Harrison with the play the game. 662 00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:15,879 Speaker 1: I thought Todd wash had a great game in terms 663 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:19,399 Speaker 1: of mixing blitz. I watched the game back this morning, 664 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:22,120 Speaker 1: and uh, I thought they blitzed a lot more than 665 00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:26,320 Speaker 1: they actually did. They had a lot of uh you know, 666 00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:28,759 Speaker 1: Russian cover as well. It was not just an all 667 00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:31,400 Speaker 1: out blitz. And from what Doug had said in the 668 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:33,239 Speaker 1: press conference, I was in the impression maybe they had 669 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:37,120 Speaker 1: done it more. Uh, they sure learned. If you remember 670 00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:40,080 Speaker 1: what was one of the big plays in Indie a 671 00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:43,719 Speaker 1: touchdown or Ebron scored on on the reverse and they 672 00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:45,839 Speaker 1: just ran that same play there from fourth down right 673 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:48,800 Speaker 1: on fourth down and they got the fumble on it 674 00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:52,720 Speaker 1: and stopped a similar play. Great awareness by the Jaguars 675 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:57,759 Speaker 1: defense yesterday. Um, they sure learned from what happened last time. 676 00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:00,160 Speaker 1: As I said, they covered Ebron on that first way. 677 00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:01,800 Speaker 1: There was no way he was getting that ball and 678 00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:05,359 Speaker 1: they were watching for the plays that worked before. So again, Uh, 679 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:09,920 Speaker 1: the Colts haven't scored on the Jaguars now in six quarters. Uh, 680 00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 1: pretty impressive considering the caliber of that offense. You gotta 681 00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:16,600 Speaker 1: think the Jaguars defense watched the first half of that 682 00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:19,319 Speaker 1: first Colts well they did, and they said they did, 683 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:21,400 Speaker 1: and they said that they knew that their mistakes were 684 00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:23,879 Speaker 1: correctable and that's why they had confidence that they could 685 00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:26,520 Speaker 1: play as well yesterday as they did in the second 686 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:29,080 Speaker 1: half in Indianapolis. And then the biggest difference, Brian was 687 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:32,320 Speaker 1: what I sort of talked about a second ago, not 688 00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:37,480 Speaker 1: really an incredible amount of blitzing. The pass rush got 689 00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:41,080 Speaker 1: home against an offensive line that it had gotten to 690 00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 1: the point where you figured going into that game that 691 00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:46,960 Speaker 1: that the checkmark, if you will, was going to go 692 00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:49,120 Speaker 1: to the Colts offensive line in terms stopping the Jaguars 693 00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:52,399 Speaker 1: pass rush. That was reversed from earlier this year, where 694 00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:55,200 Speaker 1: every check mark would have gone to to the Jaguars 695 00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 1: pass rush in that situation, Uh, probably their best game 696 00:36:58,200 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 1: of the year in terms of getting the quarterback. And 697 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 1: you know them in Indianapolis felt as if their offensive 698 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:05,360 Speaker 1: line was not just strong and powerful, but quick, and 699 00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 1: they were always pulling and it was stretching Nelson or 700 00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:09,880 Speaker 1: bringing the other guard to the outside. And yet the 701 00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:12,040 Speaker 1: Jaguars had an answer for it all day long. I 702 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:13,920 Speaker 1: also thought it was interesting you had Marcel Darius and 703 00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 1: Calais Campbell lined up strength on strength on Quentin Nelson 704 00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 1: and they won most of the day. This is a 705 00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 1: guy that I even said looks like John Hannah early 706 00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:23,400 Speaker 1: on this year, but yesterday looked like a rookie. You 707 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:25,480 Speaker 1: don't want to see any yelling videos this week. Now 708 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:28,879 Speaker 1: you probably won't. I think told off on that show 709 00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:30,799 Speaker 1: us the play at the end of the game. Yes, 710 00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 1: the last player the game, Jalen Ramsey forty four knsecutive 711 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,600 Speaker 1: starts for him. Now, even when he's hurt, he's still 712 00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 1: really good for the outside the swamp and to such 713 00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:53,120 Speaker 1: a one seconds and if you know the rule, you're 714 00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:55,640 Speaker 1: not arguing about this because look what a great job 715 00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 1: by Ramsey to undercut that. I mean, he could have 716 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:00,680 Speaker 1: just gone for the tackle, as you mentioned early, but 717 00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 1: you can see he's he stuffs his shoulder to get 718 00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:04,440 Speaker 1: in front of him and cut off the sideline. The 719 00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:11,400 Speaker 1: understanding and the sometimes what gets lost is a lot 720 00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:13,719 Speaker 1: of these guys come into the league as great athletes, 721 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:18,680 Speaker 1: and he is a football player. He understood the situation 722 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:23,280 Speaker 1: and that's the situation where you you know, it's easy 723 00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:26,000 Speaker 1: for them to go back on film this week and say, hey, 724 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 1: Jalen here, you should have done this. He didn't have 725 00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:30,759 Speaker 1: to think about that. There's no time to think on 726 00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:34,239 Speaker 1: that play. That's knowing what has to be done. That's 727 00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:37,520 Speaker 1: just having it trained into you since you were very young. Uh. 728 00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:41,759 Speaker 1: You know, an incredible for incredible awareness football play to 729 00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:43,600 Speaker 1: go with the athletic ability to pull it off. And 730 00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:46,240 Speaker 1: once again you see his four momentum. He's pushed backwards 731 00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:48,600 Speaker 1: before he gets out about and with the arm trying 732 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 1: to push him back in. I mean, and of course 733 00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:54,560 Speaker 1: Tom Coughlin knows the rule, he understands, he's hyped and 734 00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:57,560 Speaker 1: he as much as how could you not? I mean, 735 00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:01,640 Speaker 1: I'll say this one game a couple of Monday nights ago, 736 00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:05,880 Speaker 1: had everyone's excitement. That ending drive by the Colts was 737 00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:09,200 Speaker 1: as nerve racking and as exciting as any moment to me, 738 00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 1: at least in these high powered, high octane games. I 739 00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:14,719 Speaker 1: get it that you want more scoring because the game 740 00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:18,239 Speaker 1: seems boring going along, but that last drive wrot that 741 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,279 Speaker 1: scoring average a little back down to earth. Yes they did. 742 00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:24,759 Speaker 1: We said we're kind of pushing it back to the 743 00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:28,479 Speaker 1: stone ages and football the future has yet to be funny. 744 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:31,320 Speaker 1: You looked at like the NFL dot com website yesterday 745 00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:34,000 Speaker 1: and it's like all these double digits and scoring marks 746 00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:35,480 Speaker 1: and there was like six nothing. Well, you know, it's 747 00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:37,879 Speaker 1: only the fourth shutout of the season in the league. Yeah, 748 00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:39,759 Speaker 1: the rules are just not set up for teams not 749 00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:41,839 Speaker 1: to school. Almost got almost got a couple of them 750 00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:44,520 Speaker 1: here yesterday. But that last drive, I remember you and 751 00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:46,200 Speaker 1: I looked at each other and we just gave each 752 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:48,879 Speaker 1: other a look. Nothing need be said, but it was like, oh, boy, 753 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:51,160 Speaker 1: hold on, I think I mentioned to someone, you cannot 754 00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:54,719 Speaker 1: send this crowd home against these colts like you did 755 00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:57,520 Speaker 1: against the Steelers because it was a you know, one 756 00:39:57,520 --> 00:39:59,960 Speaker 1: of the reason why the seats rampty in many respect 757 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:02,480 Speaker 1: surround the stadium yesterday was it. People remembered that, and 758 00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:04,000 Speaker 1: it was just like, well, I do I even bother 759 00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:05,839 Speaker 1: that kind of a game. And if you go play 760 00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:07,400 Speaker 1: well on Thursday, and I'll bring people back for the 761 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:10,400 Speaker 1: season finale here against the Redskin held him twice. That's 762 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 1: the impressive thing, right. It took two not goal line stands, 763 00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:19,560 Speaker 1: but two stands to pull that off, so it was 764 00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:22,120 Speaker 1: a fitting weight end. Even when Ronnie Harrison got the sack, 765 00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:26,640 Speaker 1: it was sort of portrayed as Okay, you want it. 766 00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:28,480 Speaker 1: You sort of knew they were gonna have to do 767 00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:30,359 Speaker 1: it again, and they did. All right, we'll take a break, 768 00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:33,640 Speaker 1: come back when we returned.

Now 794 00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:47,240 Speaker 1: all right, let's go to Liam from Jacksonville. I understand 795 00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:49,680 Speaker 1: what was written in this week's Quick Thoughts about Blake 796 00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:52,840 Speaker 1: Bortles being the best option. I disagree, simply because we 797 00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:55,480 Speaker 1: weren't expecting a dramatic change replacing Bordles, but what we 798 00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:58,040 Speaker 1: did get was no turnovers by the quarterback and a 799 00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:01,680 Speaker 1: better natural passer. I'm not saying he's out our best 800 00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:03,920 Speaker 1: option going forward, but I think he's the better option 801 00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:06,520 Speaker 1: right now. Well. I included this because I had read 802 00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:12,400 Speaker 1: your quick thought, Brian is interesting. Um, you know, I 803 00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:18,719 Speaker 1: don't know that Kessler is a dramatically better pastor than 804 00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:23,040 Speaker 1: Bordles right now. And I get Blake's accuracy issues. Um, 805 00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:25,560 Speaker 1: and I guess Cody's more I could, but sure you 806 00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:27,960 Speaker 1: didn't see it yesterday. I guess it's my point, and uh, 807 00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:31,480 Speaker 1: I don't. I mean, I'll think it's been up to 808 00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:33,400 Speaker 1: you because I kind of included for you. Okay, So 809 00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:37,560 Speaker 1: four straight games Bortles didn't have a turnover, and then 810 00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:39,400 Speaker 1: he had the two in Buffalo, one which was clearly 811 00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:42,000 Speaker 1: his fault and the other which the ball clanged off 812 00:43:42,040 --> 00:43:45,560 Speaker 1: of James O'Shaughnessy's hands. So one turnover that you can 813 00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:48,000 Speaker 1: blame Bordles for in five games. I get it. They 814 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:50,200 Speaker 1: didn't play very well. They weren't throwing the ball very well. 815 00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:52,920 Speaker 1: But the point that I've been making is the offensive 816 00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:54,560 Speaker 1: line is a shambles. Let me think about this for 817 00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:57,480 Speaker 1: a minute. If you count D. D. Westbrook is as 818 00:43:57,560 --> 00:43:59,479 Speaker 1: a reserve, because that's what he started the season Primes 819 00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:04,239 Speaker 1: in place of Arcis Lee, D D. Westbrook, Austin Seferian Jenkins, Um, 820 00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:08,839 Speaker 1: what's the tackle's name of Trey Flowers, Um uh Eric, 821 00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:12,480 Speaker 1: Eric Flowers, Right, I don't even know Eric Flowers, Um 822 00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:17,239 Speaker 1: Patrick a mom a uh, Tyler Shatley, you see what 823 00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:18,759 Speaker 1: I mean? And for Net was gone for most of 824 00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:21,359 Speaker 1: the year. Hell, half the offense was gone. Oh we're 825 00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:24,160 Speaker 1: just gonna throw this all at Blake Bortle's feed ridiculous. 826 00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:29,320 Speaker 1: I believe that Blake Bortles is the best option because 827 00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:32,480 Speaker 1: he has that athleticism to escape and the offensive line 828 00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:37,880 Speaker 1: is not great. But yesterday, from talking to people, the 829 00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:41,040 Speaker 1: quarterback who played Kessler did not help them. He ducked 830 00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:44,480 Speaker 1: his way into you bet, you bet he and he 831 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:46,360 Speaker 1: was hesitant to get rid of the ball, and that 832 00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:50,400 Speaker 1: created more pressure and a couple of liam could think 833 00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:52,840 Speaker 1: whatever he wants. It's an opinion matter. I'm saying that 834 00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:54,880 Speaker 1: Boards is the right guy if you want to win 835 00:44:54,920 --> 00:44:56,480 Speaker 1: over the end of the season. And I think the 836 00:44:57,600 --> 00:45:02,320 Speaker 1: the interesting thing is people were so frustrated with Blake 837 00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:05,799 Speaker 1: and you sort of look for every reason why he's 838 00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:11,160 Speaker 1: at fault. I got emails yesterday saying, see and see 839 00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:13,520 Speaker 1: what happens when you have a quarterback who doesn't turn 840 00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 1: the ball over. Blake would have turned the ball every 841 00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:17,839 Speaker 1: yesterday and they would have lost. That was a very 842 00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:21,080 Speaker 1: common thing. And I think to your point, people forget 843 00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:23,840 Speaker 1: that until the Buffalo game, he had gone three straight 844 00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:25,960 Speaker 1: and four straight that in a stretch of his career. 845 00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:29,319 Speaker 1: So if all you want from your quarterback, I guess 846 00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:31,960 Speaker 1: this is the point. If all you want from your 847 00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:36,480 Speaker 1: quarterback is Okay, we're not going to throw down field, 848 00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:40,560 Speaker 1: We're going to check down. Um. Anybody can do that, 849 00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:43,960 Speaker 1: and Blake had been doing that and that was again 850 00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:46,640 Speaker 1: part of the problem. So if that's all you're gonna do, 851 00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:51,400 Speaker 1: then yes, take his athleticism. I thought late in the 852 00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:54,680 Speaker 1: game yesterday there were a couple instances where Cody was 853 00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:58,319 Speaker 1: thrown downfield a little more. Uh, if that's what we're 854 00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:01,799 Speaker 1: gonna see, then we need to see it and roll 855 00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:03,879 Speaker 1: with that. If not, then I think five. I'm willing 856 00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:06,640 Speaker 1: to buy that on the lines of you get four 857 00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:09,200 Speaker 1: net back and we'll see if that changes what Cody 858 00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:13,040 Speaker 1: Kessler is working with. But I said, look, Kessler, Milanovich, 859 00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:16,360 Speaker 1: they wanted their chances. They've got their chance. But with 860 00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:19,640 Speaker 1: what you're working with, with all those players gone, how 861 00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:21,560 Speaker 1: could we have expected it was going to look any different? 862 00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:25,360 Speaker 1: Maybe changes that up for net. Maybe changes that up. 863 00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:28,320 Speaker 1: But I didn't expect the Jaguars to score a touchdown yesterday. 864 00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:31,400 Speaker 1: I didn't. They got field goals. It was enough, and 865 00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:36,560 Speaker 1: the defense came through. Somebody expected touchdowns, right, don't bring 866 00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:39,239 Speaker 1: it up, John, I said, might, and he will, he won't, 867 00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:42,040 Speaker 1: he might, hence the might might not. All right, Let's 868 00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:46,239 Speaker 1: go to Sweeney from Scotland. Hey, what a performance from 869 00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:49,200 Speaker 1: the defense. Was this possibly a statement from the defense 870 00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:51,839 Speaker 1: regarding the QB change or am I looking too much 871 00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:55,320 Speaker 1: into this? Boy? I got this a lot um and 872 00:46:56,719 --> 00:47:00,359 Speaker 1: I actually got questions yesterday saying was this a matter 873 00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:03,120 Speaker 1: of the defense going? And I think about what it 874 00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:05,680 Speaker 1: would take to have this happen Brian and ash Um. 875 00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:09,200 Speaker 1: I got an email from somebody's asking if the defense 876 00:47:09,239 --> 00:47:12,680 Speaker 1: had gone to Doug morn and said, we're not playing 877 00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:16,479 Speaker 1: hard anymore and unless we get a quarterback and coordinator change. 878 00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:21,040 Speaker 1: Yes in mass they walked the rubber hallway and say 879 00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:24,720 Speaker 1: it just doesn't work that well. Um, so, yes, credit 880 00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:28,719 Speaker 1: the defense for playing incredibly well yesterday. I don't think 881 00:47:29,239 --> 00:47:33,040 Speaker 1: it's irrational to think that there is a hard connection 882 00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:37,040 Speaker 1: between the quarterback change and how that team played defensively yesterday. 883 00:47:37,080 --> 00:47:40,320 Speaker 1: Although I asked some players and you're absolutely right on 884 00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:42,600 Speaker 1: that's not how it works. But I did ask some 885 00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:46,040 Speaker 1: guys if they didn't know that because of the change, 886 00:47:46,160 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 1: because of all the injuries, that if they were going 887 00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:50,560 Speaker 1: to win, it was going to be on them. And 888 00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:53,400 Speaker 1: they didn't want to say, yeah, we knew the offense 889 00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:56,399 Speaker 1: was gonna stick. But what they said was, we knew 890 00:47:56,560 --> 00:48:00,400 Speaker 1: that we were capable. This is Marcel, this is Miles Um. 891 00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:03,560 Speaker 1: They knew they were capable of dictating the outcome of 892 00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:05,600 Speaker 1: the game. They felt comfortable based on what they did 893 00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:09,520 Speaker 1: in the second half in India, and they thought they 894 00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:11,480 Speaker 1: had to go play their best game of the season. 895 00:48:11,600 --> 00:48:14,279 Speaker 1: And that's different then, It's different than the immiplication and 896 00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:17,279 Speaker 1: many of the questions is, well, we finally got Blake 897 00:48:17,320 --> 00:48:19,520 Speaker 1: out of the lineup, so now let's play hard. By 898 00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:21,840 Speaker 1: the way, if if you don't get this, the players 899 00:48:21,880 --> 00:48:25,359 Speaker 1: weren't calling for Blake to sit, right, they weren't. They 900 00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:27,960 Speaker 1: supported five Now. I think in the last couple of 901 00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:32,360 Speaker 1: weeks there had been some frustration of how much longer 902 00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:35,319 Speaker 1: can we do this? I heard that from some players too, 903 00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:38,600 Speaker 1: but it wasn't they weren't going down the hallway saying right, 904 00:48:38,840 --> 00:48:41,080 Speaker 1: I'm not playing. It was more of a man I 905 00:48:41,120 --> 00:48:46,040 Speaker 1: wish this was you knows right. Yeah, it hasn't looked easy. 906 00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:48,880 Speaker 1: It hasn't. It hasn't been easy. All right, let's go 907 00:48:49,120 --> 00:48:52,480 Speaker 1: to Cliff for our last ozone stap shot. Too little, 908 00:48:53,080 --> 00:48:58,719 Speaker 1: way too late, you know what, Cliff, Cliff John something 909 00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:06,080 Speaker 1: to say, jump off it victory And I get that 910 00:49:06,160 --> 00:49:08,759 Speaker 1: it's too little, too late and they're not gonna make 911 00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:11,680 Speaker 1: the playoffs off of it. Um, we get all that, 912 00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:15,640 Speaker 1: but within the context of that game yesterday, Uh, it 913 00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:19,200 Speaker 1: was a remarkable performance. And what you have left to 914 00:49:19,280 --> 00:49:23,720 Speaker 1: this season is five games to decide for, including yesterday 915 00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:28,279 Speaker 1: as a package of trying to figure out what this 916 00:49:28,320 --> 00:49:32,680 Speaker 1: team is going to be. Um, if what we saw 917 00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:36,920 Speaker 1: from the defense yesterday and grinding out some wins, if 918 00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:40,680 Speaker 1: that's the norm of what we see going forward, Uh, 919 00:49:41,280 --> 00:49:43,600 Speaker 1: there's still time to make decisions off what happens in 920 00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:45,879 Speaker 1: the last five games. I keep getting emails from people saying, 921 00:49:45,920 --> 00:49:47,799 Speaker 1: what what are they gonna do in the off season? 922 00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:49,160 Speaker 1: What are they gonna do here? Where they're gonna hear 923 00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:51,680 Speaker 1: there's still a quarter of the season left. What to 924 00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:54,480 Speaker 1: play to that. I had looked at the salary cap. 925 00:49:54,560 --> 00:49:57,120 Speaker 1: We talked about this, and I didn't see any way 926 00:49:57,200 --> 00:49:59,080 Speaker 1: that you were going to be able to keep Calais 927 00:49:59,280 --> 00:50:03,920 Speaker 1: Campbell way he played yesterday, way right right, even if 928 00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:05,879 Speaker 1: he's not willing to take a pay cut, you find 929 00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:07,400 Speaker 1: a way to keep a guy like that because he 930 00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:09,640 Speaker 1: went up against an offensive line and a guard, a 931 00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:13,800 Speaker 1: guard who was getting Rookie of the Year, offensive Rookie 932 00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:17,360 Speaker 1: over the Year conversation in national circles because of the 933 00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:20,759 Speaker 1: way he's playing his butt. And that's the thing when 934 00:50:20,840 --> 00:50:22,560 Speaker 1: people ask, well, what are they gonna do next season, 935 00:50:22,640 --> 00:50:26,440 Speaker 1: it's like, if it ends now, here's what they do. Uh. 936 00:50:26,920 --> 00:50:30,520 Speaker 1: But it doesn't end now, so there's still And again 937 00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:33,040 Speaker 1: I was fascinated to a couple of key players. He 938 00:50:33,160 --> 00:50:37,600 Speaker 1: kept talking about what we're trying to accomplish, and there 939 00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:39,400 Speaker 1: wasn't a period at the end of the sentence. It 940 00:50:39,560 --> 00:50:43,960 Speaker 1: was a moving forward. I didn't necessarily expect that, all right, 941 00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:46,920 Speaker 1: we will come back.

Who is your vote? Who 978 00:52:44,400 --> 00:52:46,239 Speaker 1: is your player of the game? The Axfinity player the 979 00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:48,080 Speaker 1: game right now? Unique and Gogway leading the way. He 980 00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:51,640 Speaker 1: didn't play tremendous Bowl game. I mean he he had 981 00:52:51,680 --> 00:52:55,000 Speaker 1: the sack strip first of the year. That was that 982 00:52:55,120 --> 00:52:57,120 Speaker 1: was called back by the penalty on C J. Rivers 983 00:52:57,880 --> 00:53:00,400 Speaker 1: and but he was all over the field. He had 984 00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:04,040 Speaker 1: a great game statistically and was better than his statistics, 985 00:53:04,120 --> 00:53:07,799 Speaker 1: Like I say, he should have had two sacks um. Ironically, 986 00:53:08,120 --> 00:53:12,000 Speaker 1: the sack that he got was sort of a coverage sack. 987 00:53:12,080 --> 00:53:14,600 Speaker 1: He had great pressure, luck got away, and then he 988 00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:16,759 Speaker 1: got to him. He had a couple more where he 989 00:53:16,840 --> 00:53:19,240 Speaker 1: had pressure and didn't get to him. It again speaks 990 00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:22,920 Speaker 1: to it's so difficult to really judge defensive lineman when 991 00:53:22,920 --> 00:53:25,200 Speaker 1: all you think about his sacks because he got his 992 00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:27,080 Speaker 1: one sack on a play where he may not have, 993 00:53:28,040 --> 00:53:31,080 Speaker 1: you know, perhaps wasn't his best pass rush, and then 994 00:53:31,160 --> 00:53:32,879 Speaker 1: had three or four other pass rushes that he could 995 00:53:32,880 --> 00:53:34,400 Speaker 1: have gotten sacks on and didn't get it. And that's 996 00:53:34,440 --> 00:53:36,040 Speaker 1: the life of a defensive lineman. Ash, what did he 997 00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:37,440 Speaker 1: say to you and I in the locker room this 998 00:53:37,560 --> 00:53:40,520 Speaker 1: week that he was going to wreck Havoc Thrust the 999 00:53:40,560 --> 00:53:44,040 Speaker 1: season and ruin teams playoffs. That was his goal to 1000 00:53:44,280 --> 00:53:47,719 Speaker 1: wreck other teams And it was fun to watch him play. 1001 00:53:47,920 --> 00:53:49,719 Speaker 1: And I don't know about you, but I chuckled. I 1002 00:53:49,800 --> 00:53:52,080 Speaker 1: remember that. It's a whole game long his first trip 1003 00:53:53,080 --> 00:53:55,440 Speaker 1: because he was so serious about it. I mean, he 1004 00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:59,759 Speaker 1: was so absolutely adamant about wrecking other people's playoff hopes. 1005 00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:03,360 Speaker 1: And the team that they get on on Thursday night 1006 00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:05,520 Speaker 1: has some playoff hopes. Yeah, see if they can do 1007 00:54:05,560 --> 00:54:08,120 Speaker 1: it again. Okay, we're about to show our human side 1008 00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:10,520 Speaker 1: here with he will he won't, he might, um, and 1009 00:54:10,680 --> 00:54:13,960 Speaker 1: we'll pay off from Friday Show and John you had 1010 00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:16,800 Speaker 1: the running back, Yeah, Carlos high and I said he 1011 00:54:16,960 --> 00:54:19,600 Speaker 1: will get an opportunity. He was going to start uh, 1012 00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:23,000 Speaker 1: and he started um because won't get a hundred yards. 1013 00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:25,440 Speaker 1: I was dead on about that, because nobody on this 1014 00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:27,719 Speaker 1: ovinence was getting hunder yard yesterday. I said he might 1015 00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:29,399 Speaker 1: be the difference in the game. And he really, I mean, 1016 00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:32,280 Speaker 1: he might be a reason why the Jaggars offense was effective. 1017 00:54:32,320 --> 00:54:35,120 Speaker 1: He really wasn't, although he had some effective runs. But 1018 00:54:35,160 --> 00:54:36,640 Speaker 1: what you can't do is complained by night getting the 1019 00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:38,560 Speaker 1: ball and then found on your first care right, you 1020 00:54:38,640 --> 00:54:40,840 Speaker 1: can't do it. You can't do that. Okay, go for it, 1021 00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:44,319 Speaker 1: Oh boy. I had Cody Kessler as my He will, 1022 00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:47,400 Speaker 1: he won't be Mike, you're all fired up, fired up. 1023 00:54:47,480 --> 00:54:51,120 Speaker 1: I said, he will take advantage of the opportunity kind of. 1024 00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:54,160 Speaker 1: I said he won't ball out. He didn't. And I 1025 00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:57,840 Speaker 1: said he might throw two touchdown passes. Yanks might not. 1026 00:54:58,239 --> 00:55:01,520 Speaker 1: Might not do that. I took the offensive coordinator. I 1027 00:55:01,520 --> 00:55:03,520 Speaker 1: took Scott Milanovitch, and I said he will try to 1028 00:55:03,600 --> 00:55:06,960 Speaker 1: do things differently. Obviously, I got that sense in listening 1029 00:55:07,000 --> 00:55:08,759 Speaker 1: to him that he was going to apply some of 1030 00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:12,319 Speaker 1: his principles. Yeah, I got that wrong. It was checked 1031 00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:16,080 Speaker 1: down day all around. Um. I said that he won't 1032 00:55:17,120 --> 00:55:19,520 Speaker 1: uh put Kessler in a position where he has to 1033 00:55:19,560 --> 00:55:22,080 Speaker 1: shrow the ball thirty five times in the game. Dead 1034 00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:25,719 Speaker 1: on baby he Um. But I said he might get 1035 00:55:25,800 --> 00:55:28,239 Speaker 1: this offense to twenty points, thinking that there was something 1036 00:55:28,360 --> 00:55:31,200 Speaker 1: up his sleeve, some trick uh And and he didn't 1037 00:55:31,239 --> 00:55:34,600 Speaker 1: do that. And we sort of a tongue in cheek 1038 00:55:34,960 --> 00:55:38,360 Speaker 1: hammered the offense because we all, being the prognoscare as 1039 00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:41,040 Speaker 1: we are, we all talked about offense before the best 1040 00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:46,799 Speaker 1: day in defensive history. Um. But considering what they were 1041 00:55:46,880 --> 00:55:50,840 Speaker 1: up against and considering the way the game went, U, 1042 00:55:52,040 --> 00:55:54,799 Speaker 1: had the Colts scored, had they gotten up, had been 1043 00:55:54,840 --> 00:55:58,279 Speaker 1: three nothing, seven nothing, seven point the Colts, perhaps they 1044 00:55:58,320 --> 00:56:02,759 Speaker 1: would have played this differently. Um, they were all They 1045 00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:05,440 Speaker 1: never got behind obviously, cause the Colts didn't score. So 1046 00:56:07,040 --> 00:56:09,200 Speaker 1: when Doug has them call a game, it's going to 1047 00:56:09,239 --> 00:56:10,960 Speaker 1: be within the concept of trying to win that game, 1048 00:56:11,040 --> 00:56:13,920 Speaker 1: not trying to help their stats, So there may have 1049 00:56:14,040 --> 00:56:16,319 Speaker 1: been other things that they would have done had they 1050 00:56:17,040 --> 00:56:20,799 Speaker 1: been forced into that situation and the and the checkdowns, 1051 00:56:20,800 --> 00:56:24,120 Speaker 1: a conservative game plan played into giving themselves the best 1052 00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:27,919 Speaker 1: chance to win yesterday. Uh, that's what you have to think. 1053 00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:31,560 Speaker 1: Considering that the mandate was to improve the passing offense. 1054 00:56:31,719 --> 00:56:35,719 Speaker 1: Short week, um put on the spot. There's Leonard for net. 1055 00:56:36,400 --> 00:56:39,600 Speaker 1: Help Cody Kessler improve the passing offense or is this 1056 00:56:39,760 --> 00:56:43,239 Speaker 1: offense so limited by the offensive line that they just 1057 00:56:43,360 --> 00:56:45,040 Speaker 1: have to hope they can get anything going. I think 1058 00:56:45,080 --> 00:56:47,920 Speaker 1: he'll improve it, and I also think Cody mentioned it 1059 00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:50,560 Speaker 1: after the game, and so did Doug. They know you 1060 00:56:50,719 --> 00:56:53,480 Speaker 1: can't win in the NFL not going down the field. 1061 00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:56,719 Speaker 1: They both mentioned after the game. Uh, you get the 1062 00:56:56,800 --> 00:56:58,760 Speaker 1: idea they'll look at the film this week and say, okay, 1063 00:56:59,080 --> 00:57:01,239 Speaker 1: these were situation since where you should have It'll be 1064 00:57:01,360 --> 00:57:04,200 Speaker 1: more in their mindset. I think there'll be more aggressive 1065 00:57:04,200 --> 00:57:05,480 Speaker 1: down the field on It would help if d J. 1066 00:57:05,640 --> 00:57:07,360 Speaker 1: Chark was on the field. I think he's starting to 1067 00:57:07,440 --> 00:57:10,040 Speaker 1: come on playing well on the practice field. His absence 1068 00:57:10,080 --> 00:57:12,000 Speaker 1: has heard any idea on what his status will be 1069 00:57:12,080 --> 00:57:20,000 Speaker 1: this week. You're always surprised when guys status changes on 1070 00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:23,720 Speaker 1: a Thursday night game, because again, when Doug was talking 1071 00:57:23,760 --> 00:57:25,840 Speaker 1: about day on last week, he talked about it in 1072 00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:30,000 Speaker 1: the context. His quote was, with a short week, that's 1073 00:57:30,000 --> 00:57:32,760 Speaker 1: always on their mind. It's always tough to come back 1074 00:57:33,880 --> 00:57:35,480 Speaker 1: with just a couple of days to do it. He's 1075 00:57:35,480 --> 00:57:37,520 Speaker 1: a rookie, uh and his stats don't say you've got 1076 00:57:37,600 --> 00:57:38,880 Speaker 1: to have him on the field, but he was playing 1077 00:57:38,920 --> 00:57:40,760 Speaker 1: well and that would certainly help codecast there as well. 1078 00:57:40,760 --> 00:57:42,160 Speaker 1: All right, that'll do it for our show this morning. 1079 00:57:42,160 --> 00:57:44,800 Speaker 1: Don't forget the Jags Drive Time pull on Twitter going 1080 00:57:44,920 --> 00:57:47,360 Speaker 1: all day long asking you who is your expenity player 1081 00:57:47,360 --> 00:57:49,840 Speaker 1: of the game. JP and crew have at this afternoon 1082 00:57:49,960 --> 00:57:51,920 Speaker 1: so you can vote all day long. We'll be back 1083 00:57:51,960 --> 00:57:54,560 Speaker 1: tomorrow with another edition, only three this week for us. 1084 00:57:54,840 --> 00:57:56,680 Speaker 1: John will be back with us on Wednesday. Have a 1085 00:57:56,680 --> 00:57:57,400 Speaker 1: great day, everybody,
