We're helpful here. We're a team 23 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: and we're glad you're with us on Tuesday morning. How 24 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 1: are you. I'm good. I'm going off no notes here. 25 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 1: I was a little panic. My laptop broke about five 26 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:37,480 Speaker 1: minutes ago. But all we're sharing everything this morning. Um, 27 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 1: you're a broadcaster, Yeah, I'll do my thing. You go right, okay, 28 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 1: you trust yourself and your notes. And you were around 29 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 1: here all day yesterday and it was an interesting day. 30 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 1: It was very interesting day, which leads us right to 31 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 1: Big Thing one. Um and maybe the most interesting part 32 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 1: of it all. Yeah, Big Thing one is stealthy. So 33 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 1: we know that the suspension. Jalen Ramsey and Dante Feller Jr. 34 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 1: Came back yesterday, but they actually will not speak to 35 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 1: the media until Saturday. After the game. We spoke to 36 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 1: Miles Jack who said, it's good that they're back and 37 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 1: guys stepped up in their absence. Man, it's obviously always 38 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: good to have those guys back and just have your 39 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,080 Speaker 1: huddle the way they are. But um, gotta stepped up 40 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:21,799 Speaker 1: man like Spad. He he handled his business out there 41 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 1: against you know, the top receiving corps. Most people say, 42 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 1: so he did his thing, and then with other guys 43 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 1: come in for Dan, say like Demick and wild Man 44 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: and Carol so um, they did that thing. Man, they 45 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 1: did the thing. I think Miles Jack handled that perfectly, 46 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 1: and I think guys like Tyler Patman aren't getting enough 47 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,639 Speaker 1: credit for stepping up and not being the storyline as well. 48 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 1: Here's the thing, and we know Jalen Ramsey spot on 49 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 1: the roster, we know what he means the defense, so 50 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 1: we didn't need to see him now he told he 51 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:54,520 Speaker 1: didn't tell. His people communicated with Fred on Saturday morning 52 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 1: via text that Jalen missed the opportunity to go against 53 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 1: the receiver's Adam Ellen uh Dig Stefon Diggs and work 54 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,959 Speaker 1: against Kirk Cousins. So he missed that. But really the 55 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: jagguars didn't lose anything by not having Jalen there. They 56 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:13,640 Speaker 1: gained something and having Tyler Patman, having Trey Herndon, having 57 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:17,080 Speaker 1: guys get an opportunity to work against them. Those are 58 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 1: guys are gonna get to play against this year if 59 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: they're on the field for any length of time. So 60 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:24,920 Speaker 1: it was quality work for young guys, and from that perspective, 61 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 1: the Jaguars were not harmed by not having Jalen Ramsey 62 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 1: here all week last week, have forgotten guy. I mean, 63 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: let's be honest, we talked about Jalen, Jalen, Jalen. We 64 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: hardly mentioned Dante Fowler Jr. And I think I'm on 65 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: record as saying the guy's a lion on the field. 66 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: Jalen may be the best player on defense. I don't 67 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: have You couldn't convince me that there's anyone more athletic 68 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: than Dante Fowler Jr. I mean, he is at six 69 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 1: three to sixty and when he moves, he moves like 70 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 1: a lion out in the serengetti. You know, he is 71 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 1: a fluid, incredible athlete. Having him on the field means 72 00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,839 Speaker 1: a lot for this pass rush. Absolutely, And we were 73 00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: talking to Vikings personnel and their employees and Paul Allen, 74 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 1: the voice of the Vikings, he was saying how bummed 75 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 1: the Vikings were that Ramsay and Fowler didn't make the 76 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 1: trip because they wanted to see that competition, and the 77 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: Vikings were so excited to see the best of the Jaguars, 78 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: So it really was a missed opportunity for both sides. 79 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 1: He's just he bounces around like a kiddie. It's almost 80 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 1: that he didn't even think. I mean, he just reacts, 81 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,040 Speaker 1: which that's the position that he plays, right, I mean, 82 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,720 Speaker 1: his job is to go and attack the passer. So 83 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 1: he missed last week and it hurt him because he 84 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:31,719 Speaker 1: had been gone for a few weeks with the shoulder, 85 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: and he has a limited time for him to work 86 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 1: with the Jaguars because he serves the one game suspension 87 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: against the Giants. So this week and next big opportunity 88 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,840 Speaker 1: for Dante Fowler Jr. To take advantage of before he 89 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 1: has to go on. The show has to use him wisely. 90 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:47,840 Speaker 1: You got it. So we know the g Q article 91 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: came out unrelated to the suspension. I think too many 92 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 1: people just put them together butted them back to back 93 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 1: because they happened so quickly, But they're completely unrelated. G 94 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:02,479 Speaker 1: Q took advantage of the suspend and the rageous nature 95 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 1: of Jalen in general and let loose with the article. 96 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 1: So we talked to Malik Jackson yesterday in the locker room, 97 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 1: who said, Hey, if you can walk the walk, you 98 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:13,479 Speaker 1: can talk the talk. Because if you can back it up, 99 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:15,040 Speaker 1: you can say whatever you want. You know, as long 100 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 1: as this respectful and coach Maron doesn't care. You know, 101 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, he's a top rated player, 102 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 1: you know. So if you want to go out there 103 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 1: and talk about somebody to talk to somebody, talk about 104 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: every quarterback in the league, then go ahead, you know. 105 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 1: But in this game, we talk about Russian cover going together, right, 106 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 1: the guys up front getting the quarterback to get rid 107 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 1: of the ball quickly, the guys in the back end 108 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 1: forcing him to hold it. Um, I don't I don't 109 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 1: think we've ever had the combination of Russian cover. We 110 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 1: never have in Jacksonville to this degree. And so the 111 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:45,160 Speaker 1: guys on the front and really appreciate the guys on 112 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 1: the back end, and the guys on the back end 113 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 1: really appreciate the guys on the front, and so of 114 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: course they're going to back each other up. The fact 115 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: of the matter is is Jalen plays a position where 116 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 1: he takes a guy one on one, and so, yeah, 117 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,040 Speaker 1: what if a quarterback talks that kind of smack and 118 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,839 Speaker 1: they don't as a rule, Um, he needs his offensive 119 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 1: line to protect him, he needs receivers. Didn't get open 120 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: right when this guy does it. It's a completely different 121 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 1: world because he lined up Monoe Mono and takes his 122 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 1: guy to the game. And by the way, that guy 123 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: right there is the very best at taking his opponent 124 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 1: out of the game. So it's a great subplot. It's 125 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: an interesting story to talk about from this point forward. 126 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 1: We will, but it's a little consequence. Now the g 127 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,840 Speaker 1: Q article is out there and it's on him to 128 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 1: go play, and I just don't have any doubt that 129 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 1: he will. Absolutely and if he played any other position, 130 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 1: I think you're right it wouldn't it wouldn't work. But 131 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 1: because of the cornerback position and just his personality, he 132 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:42,160 Speaker 1: somehow makes it work. All right. Big thing to the 133 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 1: helmet rule question mark, So that was a major story 134 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 1: line here yesterday, especially in the locker room. We talked 135 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:48,840 Speaker 1: to a few guys about their understanding of it, and 136 00:06:48,880 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 1: they seem to get it, but to have their questions still. Alright, 137 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: So the guys clearly concerned about getting the fifteen yard penalty. 138 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 1: I mean, what Miles was saying there was he felt 139 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 1: it was inevitable he was going to get it. So 140 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 1: I'm not concerned. Isn't worried about it. But they know 141 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 1: that this rule is going to be an evolution, a 142 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: metamorphos over the course of the year. Guys don't know 143 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 1: what to expect right now, and they hope that by 144 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 1: the officials and the coaches and the players constantly communicating 145 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 1: with one another and evaluating this, that by the end 146 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: of the season they're all on the same page. Yeah, 147 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 1: Myles jack said, it's almost inevitable that he's going to 148 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: get knocked with it sometime during the season. Elite Jackson 149 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 1: said the same thing. So I think if they accepted, 150 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 1: they seem to not want to change the way they play, 151 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 1: the aggressive nature of it as a whole because of 152 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: this rule. New rules always bring about, you know this, 153 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 1: what's the right term confusion? Right? Where can I place 154 00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 1: my head? Where did my feet go? When can I 155 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: hit the guy? What defenseless? And this is the biggest one. Um. 156 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 1: And so let's go back to last night's Jaguars All 157 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 1: Access over at to Mellow Mushroom in Riverside and share 158 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 1: with you Jeff Loghman's film room if you miss All 159 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:20,119 Speaker 1: Access on a weekly The first play involves roughing the past. 160 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 1: Education Williams, the linebacker right here on the edge is 161 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 1: coming because it really explained to the new rules quite well. 162 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,839 Speaker 1: The first play involves roughing the passer and Williams, the 163 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 1: linebacker right here on the edge, is coming unblocked. And 164 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 1: watch what he does. He hits Kessler, and the rule 165 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: states this, if you land on top of the quarterback 166 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 1: with all or most of the way, it will be 167 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 1: a penalty. You can see that Williams, the linebacker has 168 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 1: one hand on the ground and one hand on the quarterback. 169 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,839 Speaker 1: Now to me, that's not all of his weight on 170 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 1: the quarterback. This, and my mind, should not be a penalty. Now, 171 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 1: the second play involves the new rule with the use 172 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 1: of the helmet. Let's take a look at Article eight's language. 173 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 1: It is a foul if a player lowers his head 174 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 1: to initiate and make contact with his helmet against an opponent. Now, 175 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 1: let's look at the play. As boy drops into coverage, 176 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 1: he sees the running back Ham swinging to the flat 177 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,960 Speaker 1: and as he comes up he gathers his feet perfect position. 178 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 1: Now let's look from the back, and I want you 179 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 1: to see what Ham the running back does with his helmet. 180 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 1: That's a battering ram and it's a penalty whether it's 181 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 1: an offensive player or a defensive player. With the new language. 182 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 1: How in the world can this not be offsetting fouls? 183 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,079 Speaker 1: I have no idea. He is absorbing most of the 184 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: contact with his left shoulder. To me, this is not 185 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,839 Speaker 1: a foul on Boyer, but this should be a foul 186 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 1: on Ham And I believe the new helmet rule has 187 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 1: affected calls in other areas. Let's take a look at 188 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 1: the hit that Jared Wilson had on the receiver. They 189 00:09:56,679 --> 00:10:00,440 Speaker 1: called this a hit against the defenseless player. The Fencil's 190 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 1: player rule states that you cannot make contact to the 191 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,200 Speaker 1: head or neck area of a receiver, and you can 192 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:10,679 Speaker 1: see on this play Wilson clearly hits the receiver in 193 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: the chest and the side nowhere near the head neck. 194 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 1: But I believe the officials have overreacted with the new 195 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 1: rule and have expanded it into other rules. So Lodgs 196 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 1: Film room has been and is the standard in Jacksonville 197 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 1: for understanding the game and those rules and his analysis 198 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 1: of it give you a really good idea of what 199 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 1: is and what is not right now. And and you 200 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 1: saw the other two instances, but go back to the middle, 201 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:42,719 Speaker 1: and that was the one where a j Boyer was 202 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 1: flagged for lowering his head and he pointed out c J. 203 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 1: Ham did the same thing the fullback. This morning in 204 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:52,559 Speaker 1: the Minneapolis newspapers, you have Mike Zimmer and Harrison Smith 205 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,719 Speaker 1: both talking about that play for which they benefited for 206 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 1: the penalty against a j boy, but saying they didn't 207 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 1: think that he should have been called with that, much 208 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 1: like Jeff was saying that the linebacker shouldn't been called 209 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:04,559 Speaker 1: with putting all of his weight by showing that the 210 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: hand was on the ground. So it's a tough job. 211 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: Being an official is an incredibly tough job. I'm not 212 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 1: sure that our viewers that the fans give the officials 213 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 1: enough credit for just how fast this game moves. You've 214 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 1: been on the sidelines, you know it's tough, and they 215 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:19,839 Speaker 1: definitely don't get enough credit. And this rule, as we 216 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:22,679 Speaker 1: talked about with John yesterday, is so important for the 217 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 1: future of the game to get it right. We're all fans, players, coaches, media, 218 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 1: all gonna have to be patient as they work and people. 219 00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,599 Speaker 1: I bring the violence back to football, right. That was 220 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: the shirt that Sandejo the safety of the hat that 221 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 1: Sandejo the safety for the Vikings War and was steward 222 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 1: for it. But Sally was talking about that last night 223 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:47,680 Speaker 1: on Jaguars Monday. They're not going to know, They're they're 224 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,080 Speaker 1: not going to We're all going to have to watch 225 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: the evolution of the game and participate by being patient 226 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 1: in our case, um, as they work through this this process. 227 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,080 Speaker 1: It's gonna feel herkey jerky at times. It's sure did 228 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 1: on Saturday afternoon. Absolutely, yeah, I mean, but it is preseason. 229 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,080 Speaker 1: We have to remember that, and these are all new rules. 230 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,560 Speaker 1: They're trying to get it. I mean, Miles Jack suggested 231 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 1: that they're going to pull the fly quicker than normal, 232 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 1: but that's because everyone's trying to figure it out. So 233 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,520 Speaker 1: you gotta expect more penalties to come in the preseason 234 00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: because they're better safe than storry at this moment. The 235 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 1: line between the game being safe and the game being 236 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:22,560 Speaker 1: the gladiatorial game that we all know, right, it's really 237 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 1: really it's a razor's edge. It's so fine, and they're 238 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 1: going to have to work through it to figure it out. 239 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,439 Speaker 1: You're just gonna have to be patient. Richard Sherman will 240 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 1: have a tweet from him later in Top Tweets coming up. 241 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 1: He's not being so patient right now. Deep breath, everybody, 242 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 1: this one's going to take a little bit of time, 243 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 1: and it's just it's something you gotta get right. You 244 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 1: gotta be patiently. But you do not miss, by the way, 245 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 1: All Access Monday nights, seven o'clock on CBS because segments 246 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 1: like that, right, Calaius will be their special guests will 247 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:54,439 Speaker 1: be there. But that film room segment really gives you 248 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 1: a look inside the Jaguars game that weekend that very 249 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 1: few other people understand and can show you absolutely. So 250 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 1: Big Thing three is back on the field this week. 251 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 1: There's a lot of healthy Jaguars back on the field. 252 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 1: We have guys like Austin Seferian Jenkins, Andrew nor Well obviously, 253 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 1: Dante Foller and Jalen Ramsey not for injury's sake, and 254 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 1: Tavin Bryan back on the field, which is great news 255 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,160 Speaker 1: for the Jag're excited to see him. We were a big, strong, 256 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 1: strapping guy and they're going to need him. The guy 257 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:23,520 Speaker 1: that I look up there and see is Austin Seferian Jenkins. 258 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 1: They don't have another tight end that can do what 259 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 1: he does. You know, the speed that he brings to 260 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:32,839 Speaker 1: the game, the athleticism as a big body in the 261 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,439 Speaker 1: middle of the field. You know, they need to Shaun Gibson. 262 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,200 Speaker 1: They need to have these guys out there, but they 263 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,959 Speaker 1: have to have a s J in the middle of 264 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 1: that offense to open everything else up. Absolutely. James O'Shaughnessy 265 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: is a very nice, complimentary guy, but they've got to 266 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: have a s J because it opens up his game. 267 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:53,959 Speaker 1: And you know, you look at some of them as 268 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,560 Speaker 1: he moves, look at how fluid he is, so fast 269 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 1: for how big he is. Absolutely, he's a tough guy. 270 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: He has to get the attention of the safeties to 271 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 1: open everything else up. He will. He's that big, that strong, 272 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 1: that talent him and just the commitment and the excitement 273 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 1: we saw with him on the field, it's it stinks 274 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 1: to not have him on the field. We saw it 275 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 1: all training camp and for him not to be in 276 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:13,559 Speaker 1: the game, it was like dang I was excited to 277 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 1: see him. And the guys that we're looking at right 278 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 1: now are big, strong, fast, powerful, talented experienced athletes. The 279 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 1: Jaguars need that. They want them on the field. They 280 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 1: need them on the field to be as good as 281 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 1: they want to be. So it's good news that they're 282 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:30,200 Speaker 1: practicing this week and tracking towards playing. Now. We asked 283 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,360 Speaker 1: Havin in the locker room yesterday, So this means you're 284 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 1: ready to go on Saturday against the Falcons. He smiles 285 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 1: that that would be fun, which is his keyword for 286 00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:40,040 Speaker 1: telling you his his code. I'm not in control of 287 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 1: this one. Hope to be out there play. He seems 288 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 1: to be confident about it. And you can only tell 289 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 1: so much what Tavin how excited he is, because he's 290 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 1: a man of very few words. But he was animated 291 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 1: yesterday though. Yeah, for him, that was like two sentence 292 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 1: of detail, which I thought was funny, but for him 293 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:55,520 Speaker 1: it was animated. And for him to be back on 294 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 1: the field his first NFL game hopefully on sorry, that's 295 00:14:57,760 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 1: big for him. And he showed you in his eyes, 296 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 1: his eyes it up. He wants to play. He knows 297 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 1: which this thing is all about. He said. The first 298 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 1: thing he said was I just need to get hit. 299 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 1: I need to get back in the game. I need 300 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 1: to get hit on the field. That's what I'm here 301 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 1: for and that's why we're here to cover him.

Alright, one of the things that we have 350 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 1: endeavored to bring you every Tuesday morning since we went 351 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 1: daily with this show is a look around the a 352 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:57,920 Speaker 1: f C South, which in the last couple of years 353 00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:01,320 Speaker 1: has not gotten the credit, probably didn't deserve any credit. 354 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:04,159 Speaker 1: It wasn't a very good division, but now it may 355 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,960 Speaker 1: be the best division in football. So this week we're 356 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 1: wrapping up our initial go round with Andrew Walker, who's 357 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 1: the writer at Colts dot com and had a game 358 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 1: in front of him last night. Luckily for us, it 359 00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:16,920 Speaker 1: was a home game, so he could get up with 360 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,480 Speaker 1: us this morning. How are you this morning, Andrew? Hey, 361 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: I'm great. How are you doing good? Thanks for taking 362 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:24,119 Speaker 1: some time to join us. We're sorry we woke you 363 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:27,120 Speaker 1: up early. What's that I said? We're sorry? We woke 364 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:29,240 Speaker 1: you up early. Oh no, it's all right, you know, 365 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 1: it just goes with the territory. Um. We actually started 366 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:36,080 Speaker 1: out in Seattle August nine with a It was ten 367 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 1: pm Eastern time by the time we kicked off, so 368 00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,359 Speaker 1: we're feeling at that next day too. And um, so 369 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:44,199 Speaker 1: we've had a couple of odd ones now, but now 370 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 1: it's it's almost like preseason and warp mode because the 371 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 1: forty Niners come in on Saturday, and then you wrap 372 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,919 Speaker 1: up the preseason a few days after that. I think 373 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 1: it's three games in ten days. So um, you know, 374 00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,199 Speaker 1: if you're a player or coach or one of us 375 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 1: doing digital media doesn't matter. You gotta you gotta get 376 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:05,399 Speaker 1: up and get ready and and and uh because this 377 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 1: regular season is coming fast. So I know you are 378 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:11,359 Speaker 1: so tired of every interview starting with Andrew Luck and 379 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:13,760 Speaker 1: probably many of them finishing with Andrew Luck. But we 380 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:17,000 Speaker 1: got to go there. Um, the adjectives I read this 381 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:20,440 Speaker 1: morning were sloppy, But do you really care what the 382 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,919 Speaker 1: numbers look like or whether he's fine tuned in the preseason. 383 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: You've got Andrew Luck, who is one of the premier 384 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the NFL back on the field, taking shots, 385 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,440 Speaker 1: throwing the ball. That to me has got to be 386 00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:37,560 Speaker 1: the storyline. Yeah, you know, it's it's preseason play. So 387 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 1: let's be honest, Frank Reich. Uh, you know, he's not 388 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:42,879 Speaker 1: opening up this playbook at all. You know, this is 389 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,119 Speaker 1: about his playing Jane as it gets for the preseason. 390 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:47,440 Speaker 1: And let's consider this, you know, let me build in 391 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 1: some excuses for the guy. But you know, the Colts 392 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:52,200 Speaker 1: didn't have t Y Hilton, they didn't have Anthony Costanzo. 393 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,240 Speaker 1: The running backs are banged up, so um. You know, 394 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:57,760 Speaker 1: I think obviously the hope is you want to go 395 00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 1: into a preseason game looking much Chris for Um. You 396 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:02,959 Speaker 1: want you want to establish rhythm, you want to get 397 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 1: the ball in the end zone. Those are all simple 398 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 1: things that by week two or three of the preseason. Um, 399 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 1: you know, if you if you want to you know, 400 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 1: accomplish some some goals and and check some boxes, that's 401 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 1: what you want to do. Um. But for the most part, 402 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 1: the good news is Andrew Lux you know, he's there, 403 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,960 Speaker 1: he's under center, he's taking you know, he's taking lead 404 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:27,480 Speaker 1: to this new offense. Uh considerably. Um. And um, he's happy, 405 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:30,719 Speaker 1: he's he's excited, he's like a little kid out there. Um, 406 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: just because you know, he really missed football last year 407 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,159 Speaker 1: and um and the team missed him obviously, so um. 408 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 1: So yeah. I mean you can look at the performance 409 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:41,479 Speaker 1: last night and we can talk about if you want. Um, 410 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 1: there's some specifics that that didn't go so well, but 411 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,119 Speaker 1: you know, overall, kind of to your point, it doesn't 412 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 1: really matter because he's there, he's he's learning with the 413 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:52,919 Speaker 1: rest of this offense. He's actually playing and they are 414 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:55,879 Speaker 1: building some momentum towards week one of the regular seasons, Andrew, 415 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:59,360 Speaker 1: Are people in the organization and the fans in Indianapolis 416 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 1: are they holding their breath every time he goes under center? 417 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 1: I mean, he took some shots last night. In fact, 418 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 1: I I read where he said that he was sort 419 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 1: of happy that Terrell Suggs sacked him because he landed 420 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:10,879 Speaker 1: on that shoulder and in a very similar way that 421 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 1: created the injury a few years ago, and got right 422 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:16,800 Speaker 1: back up and started playing. Is it to the point 423 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 1: now where okay, there's Andrew. It's just a matter now 424 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:21,879 Speaker 1: of him fine tuning some things and and after missing 425 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 1: you know, nearly six hundred days of football, getting into 426 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 1: that into that space where he feels comfortable. Yeah, you know, 427 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,120 Speaker 1: I I think I can speak for the fan base 428 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 1: and saying Terrell Suggs coming off the edge, untouched to 429 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:41,399 Speaker 1: the blind side and um, taking Andrew luck down the 430 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:44,399 Speaker 1: way he did last night, I think, you know, if 431 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 1: that's Blake Portals or you know, whoever, I think, whoever's 432 00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,439 Speaker 1: at quarterback, if if you see that and you see 433 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 1: him taken down like that, you kind of you get 434 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 1: that feeling of hey, get up, man, get up, get up, because, um, 435 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:57,920 Speaker 1: you know, nobody wants to see their quarterback take a 436 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,879 Speaker 1: hit like that. But with Andrew, I think, just because 437 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 1: of the injury history, he just you know, you really 438 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:04,920 Speaker 1: kind of think that in the back of your mind 439 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:08,119 Speaker 1: when he pops right back up with jobs to the sideline. Um. 440 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:11,639 Speaker 1: But for the most part, I will say, Um, the 441 00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 1: storyline obviously going into training camp was how's this guy 442 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,920 Speaker 1: shoulder going to react to a full practice load? Um? 443 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:21,920 Speaker 1: Can he? Can he do it? Can you know? Will 444 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,600 Speaker 1: he tire? Will he have pain? Will you know? All 445 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:26,640 Speaker 1: the questions that you're just wondering because you just haven't 446 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 1: seen him do it, and and it couldn't have gone better. 447 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 1: He practiced I think fifteen out of eighteen of the 448 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 1: training camp practices fully throwing. Um, they had built in 449 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 1: rest days for him. Um, just that's just part of 450 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:42,119 Speaker 1: his program. But um, for the most part, I mean 451 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 1: he was he was afishing. I think he we charted 452 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:48,960 Speaker 1: him throwing a completing seventy of his passes. UM. And 453 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:52,560 Speaker 1: you know, throwing touchdown stone bombs really work in the 454 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:55,240 Speaker 1: short game. UM. So you know, by the end of 455 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 1: training camp, the dude grows a mustache and that's the storyline. 456 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 1: No one really talking about it his uh, his shoulder 457 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: at all, which I think you know that I'm not 458 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 1: saying the mustache was was the plan there, but UM, 459 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:10,040 Speaker 1: I think you know, if you're Andrew Luck or the Colts, 460 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:12,159 Speaker 1: it's great news that no one's really talking about the 461 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:15,320 Speaker 1: shoulder anymore. It's it's it's just typical training camp stuff. 462 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:18,199 Speaker 1: So um. So that's another reason why I think, um, 463 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 1: things are progressing in the right way. Andrew coming off 464 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 1: the game last night, besides Andrew Luck, what are some 465 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 1: storylines you took away? Yeah, it's one of those as 466 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,640 Speaker 1: one of those games where kind of like one unit 467 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 1: was clicking and another one really wasn't. Um, you know, 468 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 1: the Colts had some really critical faults that you know, 469 00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:39,120 Speaker 1: really reared their ugly head. UM at times. They turned 470 00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 1: the ball over three times. They had thirteen accepted penalties 471 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: I think for hundred twenty nine yards. UM. You know, 472 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 1: they struggled to get the ball in the end zone 473 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 1: and and red zone and goal toghost situations. UM. And 474 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 1: I think you alluded to it earlier. Is just sloppy. 475 00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 1: But I will say this, the defense mostly played pretty 476 00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 1: darn well. They allowed just two hundred and sixty six 477 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:03,520 Speaker 1: net yards, only seven through the air. They had three sacks. UM. 478 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 1: So you know, I've said kind of this whole off season. 479 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 1: You know, they're switching back to the four three. Um. 480 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,160 Speaker 1: They have a lot of young pieces. I think they're 481 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,879 Speaker 1: gonna gonna take their lumps early. UM, But I think 482 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,920 Speaker 1: they're aggressive nature seems to be evident early and will 483 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:19,920 Speaker 1: help them down the road. UM. Then the special teams 484 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 1: coverage units were outstanding. They poured food fumbles on punts, 485 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 1: they were covering them both UM. And then Terrell Bashm 486 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:27,879 Speaker 1: had a really nice block punt at the end of 487 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 1: a game on a play where he recovers the ball 488 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:33,800 Speaker 1: himself deep in ravends territory. The Colts get a touchdown 489 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:37,639 Speaker 1: on the very next play. Thankfully, Frank Reich elect to 490 00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:40,040 Speaker 1: go for two instead of tying it and sending it 491 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:45,439 Speaker 1: to overtime in a late preseason game. Yeah, so they 492 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,639 Speaker 1: didn't convert that. That's why the final score is twenty nineteen. 493 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:50,639 Speaker 1: But um, you know, I think it's just one of 494 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 1: those typical preseason games and in this regard where um, 495 00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 1: you know, you look good at some things, you look 496 00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:00,800 Speaker 1: not so good at others. Um. But again, if they 497 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,400 Speaker 1: can kind of get things back on the right track 498 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 1: for this forty Niners game. And look the fourty Niners 499 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:08,480 Speaker 1: as we all know, Um, we know how they surged 500 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 1: a momentum at the end of last year with Jimmy 501 00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: g Um, they've got a good defense to Um, it's 502 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 1: gonna be that final regular season tuna for the starters 503 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 1: on Saturdays, as we might guess. So, um, they that's 504 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 1: the game. I think they're circling where they're still not 505 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 1: gonna open the playbook. They're not gonna give anything away. 506 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:28,639 Speaker 1: But I think, um, you know, they're really looking to 507 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:32,240 Speaker 1: be crisp on Saturday against forty Niners. It's a quarterback league, 508 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 1: and I think if we work under the assumption that 509 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:36,920 Speaker 1: you know, at some point early this season, Andrew Luck 510 00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 1: will start to look like Andrew Luck, which is to 511 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:42,239 Speaker 1: say the game changer he can be. There's two areas, um, 512 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:44,440 Speaker 1: Andrew that I look at the Colts roster and I 513 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 1: wonder about where's the running game gonna come from. Now? 514 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:49,480 Speaker 1: I know they're very solid up front, and Quentin Nelson 515 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:52,919 Speaker 1: looks like a beast already. Where who's going to get 516 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:55,320 Speaker 1: the carries? Who's going to be the guy in that 517 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 1: backfield or is it going to be by committee? And 518 00:25:58,080 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 1: and then on the other side of the ball, who's 519 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,720 Speaker 1: gonna rush the pastor and create turnovers? We saw that 520 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,920 Speaker 1: so dominant from Dwight Freeney and Robert Mathis all those years. 521 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:07,680 Speaker 1: Do the Colts have someone on that side of the 522 00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:11,320 Speaker 1: ball to give it back to Andrew? Yeah? If you're 523 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:14,119 Speaker 1: talking running back. So you guys all got a taste 524 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:17,400 Speaker 1: of Marlon Mack last year. Um it was his rookie year, 525 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 1: a guy coming out of a system, and cause when 526 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:22,680 Speaker 1: he wasn't really asked to do traditional running back things, 527 00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:24,399 Speaker 1: he was more of a kind of a weapon on 528 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 1: the outside. Um, you know, taking runs to the outside 529 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 1: and and being used in that way. UM. So he 530 00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:33,399 Speaker 1: really kind of had to learn, um how to be 531 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:37,399 Speaker 1: a more traditional I guess running back last year. And 532 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,200 Speaker 1: and you know, you couldn't have a better teacher in 533 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 1: that regard than UM Frank Gore. So UM Marlin's you know, 534 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:46,879 Speaker 1: he's kind of hit the injury bug a little bit. 535 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 1: He actually played through what I believe was a torn 536 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 1: labor m all last year UM and UM and then 537 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 1: elected that surgery of course the beginning of this offseason, 538 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 1: so he missed the whole program. With a new system 539 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:02,680 Speaker 1: gets implemented uh and training camp and it's like you 540 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 1: didn't skip a bee. He was looking really strong. UM. 541 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 1: And you know, overall the Colts want to utilize a 542 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 1: running back by committee system. That's what worked for Frank w. 543 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:14,440 Speaker 1: Reich so well with the Eagles the last couple of years. UM. 544 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:17,480 Speaker 1: You know, they're other than the fact just having a 545 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 1: great offensive line, they had UM a really good running 546 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:22,360 Speaker 1: game because they were able to have a running backs 547 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:26,119 Speaker 1: that did UM things differently UM and could attack a 548 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 1: defense in different ways. UH. You know at different points 549 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:31,520 Speaker 1: of the game. That's what Frank Reich wants to do now. 550 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 1: But I look at Marlon mac once he gets back. 551 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,760 Speaker 1: He got hurt ankle in or i'm sorry, a hamstring 552 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,640 Speaker 1: injury in the first preseason game. He probably won't play 553 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:42,879 Speaker 1: until week one the regular season. UM. So, but I 554 00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:45,280 Speaker 1: look at him as kind of lead back. UM. But 555 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:48,680 Speaker 1: there are a couple of exciting young rookies. Jordan Wilkins 556 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 1: looks like he has a great vision, UM Nightie Hines 557 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 1: is kind of a joker type that UM is more 558 00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 1: of a receiver, but he can also, you know, be 559 00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:59,879 Speaker 1: a running back. So they they brought in some backs 560 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:02,480 Speaker 1: with with different flavor. They want to do running back 561 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:05,200 Speaker 1: by committee. But by week one, I would I would 562 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,639 Speaker 1: imagine if he can stay healthy, Marlon mack is is 563 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:09,680 Speaker 1: your kind of key guy taking a lot of the 564 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 1: carries UM and then they'll split it up from their 565 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 1: depending on what the defense shows. And oh and you 566 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:20,119 Speaker 1: talk about passenger. UM. You know, the simple fact is 567 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,479 Speaker 1: Dwight Freeney and Robert mathis other than Robert Mathis being 568 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:26,239 Speaker 1: on the coaching staff, they're not on this team, UM, 569 00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:28,760 Speaker 1: and they want to get to that point. Obviously, they 570 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:31,720 Speaker 1: want to develop some pass rushers and UM and they've 571 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:34,640 Speaker 1: got Tarle Basham who's in his second year. Um, who's 572 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,120 Speaker 1: the guy they're excited about. Tomoco Toure. They took out 573 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 1: of Rutgers this year in the second round. So they 574 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 1: have some one vols that they want to develop. But 575 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:45,720 Speaker 1: I think right now they're just folcusing really on aggression 576 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 1: and speed and and hustle and effort um and they 577 00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 1: hope that over time they can maybe get there. Robert 578 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:54,960 Speaker 1: Mathis or their Dwight Freeney, um, John Simon, Jabal Star 579 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 1: seemed to be solid. You know, they're solid in the 580 00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:01,720 Speaker 1: run game. They're solid and applying pressure. Um. Whether or 581 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 1: not that pressure turns into sacks. That wasn't really the 582 00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:06,960 Speaker 1: case last year, but they did apply a lot of pressure. 583 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 1: So they're hoping maybe that turns around this year. So 584 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 1: there are some there are some veterans there, there are 585 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:14,920 Speaker 1: some young guys they're developing. So you know, they just 586 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 1: hope that over time maybe that will turn into a 587 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:19,440 Speaker 1: free mat this type situation. All right, let me put 588 00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 1: the spotlight on you before we let you go. The 589 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 1: quarterback is back? Are the Colts back? I think I 590 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 1: think in this so cliche say and I'm sorry say 591 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 1: the Colts go as far as Andrew rucktes Um and 592 00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 1: you know Jacobe Brissette, you know, admirable job last year 593 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 1: considering he was traded for a few days before the 594 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 1: regular season opener, plays the fourth quarter of the opening 595 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 1: game and then is starting the rest of the way 596 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 1: just learning the offense and chunks as he goes. And 597 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 1: he actually played pretty well considering all that. But you know, 598 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 1: I think we all saw in the fourth quarter of 599 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:56,720 Speaker 1: games last year. I mean, the Colts were in I 600 00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 1: think they had a fourth quarter or a second half lead, 601 00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:02,880 Speaker 1: and nine their games, we saw how they needed a closer. 602 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 1: They needed a guy that that could come in and 603 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 1: run the offense um, you know, efficiently make defenses miss 604 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 1: and get into the end zone in critical times. And 605 00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:16,280 Speaker 1: it just didn't happen. And many of those games obviously 606 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 1: only winning four games. So you know, I think Angel 607 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:23,880 Speaker 1: luks the difference between a four win season and let's 608 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:26,640 Speaker 1: say an eight win season. I don't know, um as 609 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 1: they keep building the talent up, but um I do 610 00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 1: know this. Chris Ballard couldn't respect the way the Jaguars 611 00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 1: have built their system and Tom Coughlin and them have 612 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 1: built their system and their defense and all that, and 613 00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 1: that's exactly what what the Colts want to do. And 614 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 1: it's just weird because you alluded to alluded to this. 615 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 1: They f C South maybe a couple of years ago, 616 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 1: was laughed at and and the Jaguars were kind of 617 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:51,680 Speaker 1: the little brother that everybody beat on. It's not that 618 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 1: way anymore. It's the exact opposite. The Jaguars are the 619 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:57,960 Speaker 1: king of the division. Everyone respects how they've built this 620 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:01,680 Speaker 1: thing through defense and running and like Borrels has improved 621 00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 1: greatly and seems to really enjoy the system. And uh, 622 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 1: and now everybody's catching up to that. So you know 623 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:12,200 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a good race. Houston and Tennessee obviously 624 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 1: our playoff caliber teams. So um so if anybody's guess 625 00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:17,760 Speaker 1: how it ends up playing out, but I would say 626 00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 1: the Colts are in much better hands obviously with Andrew 627 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 1: luck and and it could make a major difference with 628 00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 1: their win loss record. And Frank right, there's a tremendous coach. 629 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 1: A lot of people around the league have such a 630 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:31,200 Speaker 1: great regard for him. So here's what we do know, Andrew, 631 00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 1: It's gonna be a fund race. As you mentioned, around 632 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 1: the A f C South this year and we're looking 633 00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:36,320 Speaker 1: forward to catching up with you throughout the season. Have 634 00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:39,000 Speaker 1: a great rest of your preseason, buddy, and we'll we'll 635 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,480 Speaker 1: talk to you once the season gets rolling. Okay. Thanks 636 00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:45,959 Speaker 1: appreciate Andrew Walker, Colts dot Com writer. We certainly appreciate him. 637 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,560 Speaker 1: How about a couple of other headlines from around the 638 00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 1: a f C South for you and in Houston. What 639 00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:57,040 Speaker 1: stands out is Kevin Johnson. He hit the field hard, 640 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 1: hard covering Marquise Scott when if you haven't seen it, 641 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:02,360 Speaker 1: go look at that piece of video. He had to 642 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:04,520 Speaker 1: go to the hospital with a concussion. That doesn't happen 643 00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:07,960 Speaker 1: very often. He is out. He was at practice yesterday, 644 00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 1: which is a good sign. But boy, that's a big, big, 645 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 1: big component of their defense. He is a former first 646 00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 1: round pick and they had a lot of injuries on 647 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 1: the defensive side of the ball last year. That would 648 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,000 Speaker 1: have been a big hit to them early. And I 649 00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 1: don't know whether you saw it, but Lebron James speaking 650 00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:31,400 Speaker 1: kills right. Uh. Taiwan Taylor, young receiver had two touchdowns 651 00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:35,360 Speaker 1: the other night in the Titans preseason game against the 652 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:38,840 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Titans Buccaneers. Look, we know he follows 653 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 1: the Browns, right, who knew that? He just followed the 654 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:46,240 Speaker 1: NFL randomly through Instagram. He saw Taiwan Taylor speed and 655 00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 1: it's four three speed. Yeah, that's quite the compliment. And 656 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:53,720 Speaker 1: well I would think so too. And of course Taylor 657 00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:57,000 Speaker 1: tells everyone and look anyone who is in that fifteen 658 00:32:57,640 --> 00:32:59,960 Speaker 1: year old range. Of course, Lebron James is your favor 659 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,880 Speaker 1: at basketball player. He said afterwards, how humbling it was 660 00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:07,400 Speaker 1: to have him comment on what he was able to 661 00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 1: do in a preseason game. So those are your a 662 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 1: f C South headlines from around our division. How about 663 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 1: a quick look at some NFL headlines that stand out. 664 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:20,880 Speaker 1: The first one is the Buffalo Bills went and put 665 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:25,040 Speaker 1: ten million bucks into a j. McCarron from the Cincinnati 666 00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 1: Bengals and he broke his clavical. Now they're getting a 667 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:33,160 Speaker 1: second opinion trying to see how bad it is. But 668 00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:36,920 Speaker 1: he was injured, and it looked they had sent the 669 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:38,960 Speaker 1: first round pick on a quarterback, Josh Allen, so it 670 00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 1: just makes sense he would go in there. But they're 671 00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:42,960 Speaker 1: looking for help, which brings us two point number two. 672 00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 1: Could it be Teddy Bridgewater? You know, the whole situation 673 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,680 Speaker 1: in New York is working out beautifully. They're using each 674 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 1: other Teddy Bridgewater in the Jets perfectly. They have a 675 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:54,760 Speaker 1: first round pick, Sam Donald, who has looked good on 676 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 1: the field. They have Josh McCown who led them to 677 00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:00,880 Speaker 1: greater heights than anyone thought was possible year. So here's 678 00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:04,640 Speaker 1: Teddy a couple of touchdowns, looks pretty sharp. The Jets, 679 00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:08,200 Speaker 1: they get to know, trade him right. Thing started working 680 00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:11,520 Speaker 1: out perfectly, perfectly. It's an A plus. It's the best 681 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:15,879 Speaker 1: case scenario. The rookie looks good. The the veteran free 682 00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:18,839 Speaker 1: agent they signed, you know, coming off the horrific knee 683 00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:20,920 Speaker 1: injury from a couple of years ago, looks good. Now 684 00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:23,239 Speaker 1: they get to trade him. Pat Shermer, who was his 685 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator in Minnesota when he got injured, is now 686 00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:28,279 Speaker 1: the coach of the Giants, who they play this week. 687 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:29,920 Speaker 1: And of course they're right there in the same areas says, 688 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:33,719 Speaker 1: do not sleep on Teddy Bridgewater. The Bills might think 689 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 1: about finding a way to bring him to help teach 690 00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:40,680 Speaker 1: instruct back up Josh Allen, and that would make John 691 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:43,239 Speaker 1: Osier so happy. So he did not get those mail 692 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,360 Speaker 1: bags anymore about him coming to the Jaguars exactly. And 693 00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:47,839 Speaker 1: then final thought from around the league, Josh Gordon, who 694 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:50,759 Speaker 1: was one of our headlines early on when he went 695 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:54,680 Speaker 1: on the non football injury list, is back with the Browns. Look, 696 00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:58,000 Speaker 1: we saw the Browns last year. They gave the Jaguars 697 00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:00,239 Speaker 1: all they could handle. And the weather had something to 698 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:02,920 Speaker 1: do with him. Um, they were a quarterback away. They 699 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:05,920 Speaker 1: had a rookie who wasn't very good last year into 700 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:08,319 Speaker 1: Shaun Kaiser who's now not there anymore. But you can 701 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:11,239 Speaker 1: tell their offensive line had talent, their defense has a 702 00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:14,200 Speaker 1: lot of talent, and if they could just get Josh 703 00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:16,240 Speaker 1: Gordon on the field. We saw him in two thousand twelve. 704 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 1: He had two hundred and sixty nine yards receiving against 705 00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:22,320 Speaker 1: this Jaguars team. Not not this Jaguars team. They weren't 706 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 1: nearly this good defense. You couldn't defend him. He's six four, 707 00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:29,120 Speaker 1: He's Randy Moss is what he is. He's that physical 708 00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,960 Speaker 1: specimen that you just can't you can't get a guy on. 709 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:36,160 Speaker 1: I can't wait to see Jalen Ramsey on him, right, 710 00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:38,800 Speaker 1: But he's that good. Now you combine him with Jarvis 711 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:41,840 Speaker 1: Landry and the young tight end, no coup that they 712 00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:45,279 Speaker 1: drafted last year out of Miami. Hold on, folks, this 713 00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:47,640 Speaker 1: Cleveland team could jump from O N six to eight 714 00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:50,319 Speaker 1: and eight with new problem. They've got that kind of talent. 715 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:53,279 Speaker 1: The quarterback is obviously issue. But to want what was 716 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:57,400 Speaker 1: saying to Rod Well it was Tyrod. Now it's too 717 00:35:57,480 --> 00:36:01,400 Speaker 1: Rod to Rod? Is the new the new pronunciation to 718 00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:05,680 Speaker 1: Rod Taylor rocket arm. Yeah, let's see what they can 719 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:09,440 Speaker 1: in the You can go from worst to first in 720 00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:12,120 Speaker 1: the division standings. You can go from oh and sixteen D. 721 00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:14,080 Speaker 1: I don't think eate and eates out of the realm 722 00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:16,719 Speaker 1: of possibility. They have that much talent in Cleveland. It 723 00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 1: could be a very quick turnaround Jackson, and they certainly 724 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:23,480 Speaker 1: deserve it. We need to take a break. We'll be 725 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:28,800 Speaker 1: back with Ashland's analysis. We return good stuff.

Brian Sexton, 749 00:37:57,239 --> 00:38:01,760 Speaker 1: Ashland Sullivan and a big thank you toube Andrew Walker, Cults, 750 00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:05,000 Speaker 1: writer at cults dot com for spending some time getting 751 00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:08,040 Speaker 1: us up to date. Colts played last night story there 752 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 1: in case you missed that interview Andrew Lucks on the field. 753 00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:15,600 Speaker 1: They're not worried about preseason football at this point. They 754 00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:19,479 Speaker 1: just like seeing Andrew Luck on the field and running around. 755 00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:21,719 Speaker 1: Things are positive when that happens. And the guy, by 756 00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:23,239 Speaker 1: the way, the guys on this defense, they want to 757 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:25,400 Speaker 1: see him too. They want to test themselves against the 758 00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 1: very best. And before he was injured, Luck was considered 759 00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:32,120 Speaker 1: a virtuoso performer. I mean that that guy whose father 760 00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:36,279 Speaker 1: groomed him to be a professional quarterback, and he looked 761 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:38,480 Speaker 1: like he was ready to be the next great quarterback. 762 00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:42,239 Speaker 1: Hopefully the shoulder injury doesn't deter him from getting there. 763 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:46,319 Speaker 1: What you got for us this morning? In Ashland's analysis, 764 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 1: we've discussed it a little bit. The new NFL rules 765 00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:50,839 Speaker 1: of course, the helmet rule and the roughing the past 766 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:52,759 Speaker 1: where we heard death log him and his take on it. 767 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:55,120 Speaker 1: So we look back at the play against the Minnesota 768 00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 1: Vikings when Cody Kessler got sacked and immediately that was 769 00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:01,279 Speaker 1: called roughing the pastor now I remember when we had 770 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:04,080 Speaker 1: the referees come to t I a bankfield. They said, 771 00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 1: when a defender comes and puts all of his weight 772 00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:10,080 Speaker 1: on a quarterback, it's going to be a flag. Immediately, 773 00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:13,759 Speaker 1: that gets called a flag. Coach marone Um actually said, 774 00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:15,600 Speaker 1: we have the sod of it. Actually maximum you can 775 00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:17,920 Speaker 1: play it. He says, you know, when all the weight 776 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 1: goes on the on the quarterback, it's going to be 777 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,560 Speaker 1: a flag. Right. You know, when you when you hit 778 00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:24,839 Speaker 1: the quarterback, it's very simple in the rule book. When 779 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:28,440 Speaker 1: you hit the quarterbacks, as you hit him once you're 780 00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:30,719 Speaker 1: you're going down with him, you've got to show that 781 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:32,560 Speaker 1: you're trying to go to the side and not put 782 00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 1: your full weight on him. That that's what the rule says. 783 00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:38,520 Speaker 1: So we're going back to Jeff Logman film room and 784 00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:41,200 Speaker 1: you watch the play. He has one hand on the ground, 785 00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:43,719 Speaker 1: one hand on the quarterback, and it looks like he's 786 00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 1: splinting his weight. Yet that gets called. Well, so when 787 00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:48,960 Speaker 1: you look at the play from that angle, what the 788 00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:54,320 Speaker 1: first play involves and ray shoulder watch it. He wrenches 789 00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:57,560 Speaker 1: his right shoulder down, kind of throws it. That is 790 00:39:57,640 --> 00:40:00,120 Speaker 1: what the officials saw. He didn't see that hand end 791 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:03,880 Speaker 1: on the ground. He saw the shoulder wrench right and 792 00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:07,040 Speaker 1: it looked to him like he was putting extra emphasis, 793 00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:10,200 Speaker 1: extra weight on top of him, kind of see right there, 794 00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:13,520 Speaker 1: driving him into the round. Now from the other angle, 795 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:16,040 Speaker 1: this one right here, you can see the hand is down. 796 00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:19,719 Speaker 1: But it's tough because we mentioned how fast the game 797 00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:22,600 Speaker 1: is played and the officials have to make a judgment call. 798 00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:25,719 Speaker 1: You can't see everything. He saw that little wrench move 799 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:29,200 Speaker 1: and through the fifteen yard penalty. I think just general 800 00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:31,680 Speaker 1: going forward. I remember standing there and hearing the crowd 801 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:34,880 Speaker 1: go when you hear those pops in those big time plays. 802 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:37,239 Speaker 1: I think it's just emphasis for the flag. And I 803 00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:40,160 Speaker 1: said on the broadcast with Fred on Saturday afternoon, I 804 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:43,239 Speaker 1: didn't think that was a penalty. And I didn't think 805 00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:45,759 Speaker 1: that was a penalty. That just looks like football or 806 00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:50,520 Speaker 1: what football always was. But they're trying to remove some 807 00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:53,600 Speaker 1: of the violence from the game, and especially when it 808 00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:57,000 Speaker 1: comes to the quarterback, and so from that perspective, they're 809 00:40:57,040 --> 00:40:59,719 Speaker 1: going to throw that flag more often than not. It 810 00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:01,960 Speaker 1: was any of the Vikings had coached. Mike Zimmer yesterday 811 00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:04,160 Speaker 1: was in a press conference. He said, now, looking back 812 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:06,279 Speaker 1: at it, I think it was a penalty. He said, 813 00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:07,960 Speaker 1: you know that pop. He mentioned the pop, and he 814 00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,200 Speaker 1: mentioned the drive into the shoulder. I think now looking back, 815 00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:11,840 Speaker 1: that should have been a flag. Well, and the one 816 00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,040 Speaker 1: thing his own team, you're right, right, and you heard 817 00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:17,040 Speaker 1: Doug talk about that also with respect to some of 818 00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:19,200 Speaker 1: the penalties that his guy's got and they had to 819 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:21,839 Speaker 1: do it cleaner better. That's preseason coaching right there, where 820 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:23,759 Speaker 1: they're willing to say because he doesn't cost them a game, 821 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:27,440 Speaker 1: where they're willing to be completely honest and tell you 822 00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:30,839 Speaker 1: exactly what's what on whatever side it was. Because remember 823 00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:32,399 Speaker 1: Mike Zimmer said that he thought that C. J. Hamm 824 00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:34,560 Speaker 1: probably should have gotten a penalty because he lowered his 825 00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:37,120 Speaker 1: head first on a J boy A. Right, These guys 826 00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:39,680 Speaker 1: get it. They understand we're all kind of in the 827 00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:44,279 Speaker 1: same boat here trying to find that razor's edge where 828 00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:45,880 Speaker 1: the game has to be played in order for it 829 00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:48,719 Speaker 1: to be its best and not degrade. Right. I thought 830 00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:50,880 Speaker 1: it was interesting yesterday dun Morons press conference when he 831 00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:52,759 Speaker 1: said he's going to call the league and asked about 832 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:54,520 Speaker 1: that helmet role with a J boy And I'm interesting 833 00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:56,000 Speaker 1: to see what they come back with and if dun 834 00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:58,040 Speaker 1: Ron is going to mention how that phone call went. Yeah, 835 00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:00,840 Speaker 1: you know, um, a guy who got a penalty was 836 00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:03,800 Speaker 1: Unique and got Way. Yes, we've been trying to squeeze 837 00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:06,960 Speaker 1: this story in for weeks see uh, and we have 838 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:09,120 Speaker 1: time now, so we're going to do this. I believe 839 00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:11,320 Speaker 1: it's finally gonna it's finally going to see the finally 840 00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:14,520 Speaker 1: gets his time to shine. Unique and got Way one 841 00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:16,400 Speaker 1: of the really good guys. Now, it doesn't always come 842 00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:18,080 Speaker 1: off that because he has smile and he's got that 843 00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:21,120 Speaker 1: intensity about him, and it's really tough to see through 844 00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:23,960 Speaker 1: that when you only see him on a limited basis. 845 00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:26,640 Speaker 1: But during one of the busiest moments of training camp 846 00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:29,680 Speaker 1: and on his off day, Ashlynd you joined him for 847 00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:33,040 Speaker 1: a nice evening at Academy Sports. We did so. Myself 848 00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:35,000 Speaker 1: and Max Hawkman went out to a community event as 849 00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:36,400 Speaker 1: we normally do each week, but this one was a 850 00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:39,560 Speaker 1: little different. With training camp. I didn't expect a community 851 00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:41,480 Speaker 1: event like this to go on the first day of 852 00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:44,319 Speaker 1: training camp, but actually was. Miles Jack Unique went out 853 00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:47,880 Speaker 1: to Academy Sports, bought kids backpacks, bought kids sneakers for school, 854 00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:56,600 Speaker 1: and the story behind it's pretty cool. The Jaguars have 855 00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:59,000 Speaker 1: wrapped up a successful first week of training camp and 856 00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:01,760 Speaker 1: have earned themselves and all day unking. Gockway and Milens 857 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:03,920 Speaker 1: Stock are using that off day to do some back 858 00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:05,880 Speaker 1: to school shopping with the Boys and Girls Club of 859 00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:10,680 Speaker 1: Northeast Florida. I need nice to meet you. Do you 860 00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:13,920 Speaker 1: want to shople? Come on follow me. With the new 861 00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:16,600 Speaker 1: school year approaching, it's easy to forget that some kids 862 00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:20,520 Speaker 1: may need a little more help than others. Jaguar's defensive 863 00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:23,200 Speaker 1: end unique and Gockway knows the feeling, which is why 864 00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:27,359 Speaker 1: he provided new school supplies for thirty students for three 865 00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:29,160 Speaker 1: strife life. Yeah, we don't give him with dater ship. 866 00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:33,480 Speaker 1: Set you up nice because I was in a similar 867 00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:35,759 Speaker 1: situation that these kids came from, growing up in d 868 00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:37,520 Speaker 1: C in the inner city, so I know how it 869 00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:39,040 Speaker 1: feels like to have to use some of the same 870 00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:41,719 Speaker 1: things from the previous school year into the next school year. 871 00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:43,600 Speaker 1: So I'm just happy to see that these kids need 872 00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:46,680 Speaker 1: get some Brandon's help. Not having the newest Chance Sport 873 00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:49,359 Speaker 1: backpack gaving Gockway the motivation to be the Pro Bowl 874 00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:52,279 Speaker 1: defense event he is today. Because I understand why my 875 00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:53,839 Speaker 1: mom's used a single mom and should have to take 876 00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:55,920 Speaker 1: care two boys. So at the time I was just 877 00:43:56,040 --> 00:43:58,759 Speaker 1: you know, trying to get used to it. But at 878 00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:00,040 Speaker 1: the same time, I knew I wasn't going to be 879 00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:04,440 Speaker 1: doing this forever. Push from the Ultimated Football there, linebacker 880 00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:07,200 Speaker 1: Miles Jack says his mom did all she could to 881 00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:09,920 Speaker 1: prepare him for school, but now wants to take it 882 00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:13,080 Speaker 1: upon himself to get these kids ready and day. Nobody 883 00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:15,320 Speaker 1: helps us. So to give him, you know, a hundred 884 00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:18,360 Speaker 1: dollars to tour school or or or football or whatever, 885 00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:22,280 Speaker 1: maybe I think that's very beneficial. Both players told these kids, 886 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:25,520 Speaker 1: regardless of what they want to be, it all starts 887 00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:29,240 Speaker 1: with their education. For Jaguars dot Com, I'm Ashlan Sullivan, 888 00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:38,200 Speaker 1: So we've seen a lot of players to do back 889 00:44:38,239 --> 00:44:40,840 Speaker 1: to school shopping. That's a popular event, but with unique 890 00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:43,080 Speaker 1: we found out before the event, before we got there. 891 00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 1: The reason he wanted to do it is because when 892 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:47,239 Speaker 1: he was in school, he always didn't get new school 893 00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:48,440 Speaker 1: supply and in fact, he said, there were a lot 894 00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:50,040 Speaker 1: of years where I had to use the same stuff 895 00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:52,040 Speaker 1: because my mom did the best she could. So he said, 896 00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:55,040 Speaker 1: coming full circle now that I can provide for these kids. 897 00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:57,200 Speaker 1: And there was thirty kids there that I can provide 898 00:44:57,239 --> 00:44:59,200 Speaker 1: for these kids, and I know that they were going 899 00:44:59,239 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 1: through the same things I went through. Was pretty cool 900 00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:03,000 Speaker 1: that the reason why he did that. And let's let's 901 00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:06,000 Speaker 1: drill down here real quick. So those are two professional 902 00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:09,160 Speaker 1: football players and they make way above the median income 903 00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:11,839 Speaker 1: in this county and in this country. But neither one 904 00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:14,040 Speaker 1: of those guys has gotten that big check yet. Right. 905 00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:16,719 Speaker 1: Unique was the third round pick. He got it. He 906 00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:18,960 Speaker 1: makes a nice living, but it's not like he's a 907 00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:23,440 Speaker 1: multi multimillionaire yet, like a Marcel Darius or a Malik Jackson. 908 00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:28,040 Speaker 1: He hasn't gotten his yet, and so he's still taking 909 00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:30,120 Speaker 1: the time and pulling the money out of his pocket 910 00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:32,080 Speaker 1: he can afford it. I'm not crying poor for him. 911 00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:34,399 Speaker 1: I'm just saying he's not waiting for the big check. 912 00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:37,359 Speaker 1: He's not waiting for the money in his pocket. He's 913 00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:40,000 Speaker 1: not using that as an excuse. He and Miles were 914 00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:43,560 Speaker 1: out there giving what they had now to help others. 915 00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 1: And it's a cool story. And just on a personal note, 916 00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:50,720 Speaker 1: those two young men are so impressive on the field, 917 00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:53,600 Speaker 1: and they are more impressive off of it. I have 918 00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:57,839 Speaker 1: not met any of Unique's family, but I've met miles mom, 919 00:45:58,280 --> 00:45:59,920 Speaker 1: and if you want to know why he's such a 920 00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:03,319 Speaker 1: good kid and so respectful, spend a little time with her. 921 00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:05,680 Speaker 1: She's here. She comes down from Atlanta for some of 922 00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:09,080 Speaker 1: the games. She's a very impressive ladies. You know, we 923 00:46:09,160 --> 00:46:10,680 Speaker 1: talked about the players. You gotta be able to play, 924 00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:13,279 Speaker 1: otherwise you don't. You don't get in the doors here, right, 925 00:46:13,680 --> 00:46:15,680 Speaker 1: But the kind of person you are goes a really 926 00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:20,080 Speaker 1: long way, and they found him absolutely. Miles mentioned his 927 00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:22,360 Speaker 1: mom at the community event and said she raised me 928 00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:25,839 Speaker 1: to what I am today. Very very impressive family. All right, 929 00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:28,080 Speaker 1: we'll take a break our final one of today's show 930 00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:40,560 Speaker 1: and return with tweets here on the Jaguars Digital Network.

He loves it, I know, 952 00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:59,000 Speaker 1: but you know he sings along. I always miss someone 953 00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:06,640 Speaker 1: I know. But it's time for top tweets, tweets, top tweets, tweets, 954 00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:11,000 Speaker 1: top Yeah, that's where he gives you the rupie smile. 955 00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:12,959 Speaker 1: That's where he just loves it. Here's that Richard Sherman 956 00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:15,200 Speaker 1: tweet that I alluded to, right, we mentioned it, so 957 00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:18,600 Speaker 1: he said there's no make adjustments to the way you tackle. 958 00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:21,560 Speaker 1: Even in a perfect form tackle, the body is led 959 00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:24,400 Speaker 1: by the head. The rule is idiotic and should be 960 00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:28,040 Speaker 1: dismissed immediately. When you watch rugby players tackle, they are 961 00:48:28,080 --> 00:48:32,399 Speaker 1: still led by their head. Will be flag football soonis 962 00:48:33,280 --> 00:48:35,960 Speaker 1: So this is what we talked about yesterday. We alluded 963 00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:40,040 Speaker 1: to it today. It's that fine line, and Richard Sherman 964 00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:42,759 Speaker 1: clearly thinks they've already crossed it. Um. If you go 965 00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:46,319 Speaker 1: back and watch some of the rugby hits, and Joe 966 00:48:46,760 --> 00:48:48,759 Speaker 1: de Camillus, the special teams coordinator, and I did a 967 00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:51,200 Speaker 1: piece back in the spring. It's on the website somewhere. 968 00:48:51,239 --> 00:48:53,480 Speaker 1: Maybe we can find it and get it moved up. Um. 969 00:48:54,080 --> 00:48:57,680 Speaker 1: He used some video that we used of rugby players 970 00:48:57,800 --> 00:49:01,640 Speaker 1: in Australia using their shoulder. Yes, the head goes with 971 00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:04,440 Speaker 1: the shoulder right, but the heads off to the side 972 00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:07,920 Speaker 1: and the shoulder is making contact before the initial contact. 973 00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:10,160 Speaker 1: So I get what Richard Sherman saying. The head is 974 00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:12,919 Speaker 1: going with it. But in that form tackling, the head 975 00:49:13,160 --> 00:49:16,200 Speaker 1: is away more than it was when C. J. Ham 976 00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:18,800 Speaker 1: or a J Boy or anybody who's gotten it is lowered. 977 00:49:19,120 --> 00:49:21,279 Speaker 1: I think you can get to a point where guys 978 00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:24,600 Speaker 1: drop their hips. Look, my kids playing the Junior Development 979 00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:26,319 Speaker 1: Football League here in town. It's a heads up league 980 00:49:26,360 --> 00:49:29,840 Speaker 1: run by USA Football, which works with the NFL. So 981 00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:33,040 Speaker 1: I've done all the coaching certification on teaching heads up, 982 00:49:33,320 --> 00:49:36,320 Speaker 1: and I've seen with younger kids, seventh and eighth graders, 983 00:49:36,600 --> 00:49:39,080 Speaker 1: how you teach these guys to tackle when they drop 984 00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:42,719 Speaker 1: their hips. Right, when your hips go down, what goes 985 00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:45,560 Speaker 1: with it? Right shoulders, The head goes back. The head 986 00:49:45,600 --> 00:49:47,000 Speaker 1: is still going to be in it right because the 987 00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:49,399 Speaker 1: shoulder in the head go together. But if you slow 988 00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:52,399 Speaker 1: down and you heard Jeff say, he gathers his feet, 989 00:49:52,400 --> 00:49:54,720 Speaker 1: But we call that buzzing the feet in youth football, 990 00:49:54,840 --> 00:49:56,400 Speaker 1: where you get the feet underneath you so that you 991 00:49:56,480 --> 00:49:58,600 Speaker 1: can drop the hips and square up and make a 992 00:49:58,719 --> 00:50:01,840 Speaker 1: form tackle. That's what they're going for. You're not bringing 993 00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:03,840 Speaker 1: the violence back to the game. It's not going to 994 00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:06,520 Speaker 1: become flag football. But you're gonna drop the hips and 995 00:50:06,520 --> 00:50:09,720 Speaker 1: you're gonna learn how to use that shoulder first. Richard, 996 00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:11,600 Speaker 1: like I said to a lot of the people who 997 00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:13,840 Speaker 1: are watching, is just going to be patient with it. 998 00:50:14,200 --> 00:50:16,360 Speaker 1: The players, they're all gonna to be patient and the 999 00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:18,400 Speaker 1: League office should help the patients by not sending out 1000 00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:20,759 Speaker 1: big fines. Right, A J boy should not get a 1001 00:50:20,800 --> 00:50:24,040 Speaker 1: fifteen dollar finds. None of these guys should get any 1002 00:50:24,040 --> 00:50:26,480 Speaker 1: of these fines as they work through it. Unless you 1003 00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:29,880 Speaker 1: can see the intent and you conte the guy, um 1004 00:50:30,640 --> 00:50:32,000 Speaker 1: what was his name? We just did it last week. 1005 00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:36,440 Speaker 1: It was cut by the Colts. Schamarco Shamarco Thomas, the 1006 00:50:36,520 --> 00:50:39,120 Speaker 1: safety who was the first guy who was flagged for 1007 00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:41,480 Speaker 1: going vertical and thrown out of a game that looked 1008 00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:44,919 Speaker 1: throw the fine, give him the fine. But but boy 1009 00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:49,640 Speaker 1: A and Jared Wilson, no fines now until we figure 1010 00:50:49,760 --> 00:50:53,480 Speaker 1: this thing out. That to me just makes sense. Right, 1011 00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:55,800 Speaker 1: Maybe send a little warning letter sternly. You know the 1012 00:50:55,880 --> 00:50:59,400 Speaker 1: next time we're gonna the reason we flagged you is 1013 00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:01,520 Speaker 1: because you did this, and you have a phone call 1014 00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:03,000 Speaker 1: with a J boy and say, hey, next time, this 1015 00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:04,520 Speaker 1: is what you should do. But if you want the 1016 00:51:04,600 --> 00:51:07,239 Speaker 1: players to buy in, hold the fine money back here. 1017 00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:11,000 Speaker 1: Because this is this is new stuff, Ashlyn. This is 1018 00:51:11,040 --> 00:51:13,640 Speaker 1: not hyperbole from me. I'm not just creating this drama 1019 00:51:13,640 --> 00:51:15,879 Speaker 1: around this. We're really at that moment where the league 1020 00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:18,239 Speaker 1: has to figure this stuff out to save the game 1021 00:51:18,400 --> 00:51:21,080 Speaker 1: for the long term. So don't don't nickel and dimeon. 1022 00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:24,879 Speaker 1: Not the fifteen grand is nickels and dimes, not quite 1023 00:51:24,880 --> 00:51:26,800 Speaker 1: at all, But don't do that right now. Find a 1024 00:51:26,880 --> 00:51:28,719 Speaker 1: way to help the players stay patients as they work 1025 00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:30,960 Speaker 1: their way through absolutely all right, let's go to our 1026 00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:33,320 Speaker 1: next top tweet and it is none other than Jalen Ramsey. 1027 00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:36,120 Speaker 1: So on Saturday, on game Day when the Jaguars played 1028 00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:39,000 Speaker 1: the Vikings, the NFL tweeted twenty days until kick off. 1029 00:51:39,520 --> 00:51:42,000 Speaker 1: The nice little graphic there of Jalen Ramsey. Jalen quote 1030 00:51:42,040 --> 00:51:44,920 Speaker 1: tweets that says twenty days un till checks will be 1031 00:51:45,120 --> 00:51:48,600 Speaker 1: cash two point oh. And we always say, Brian football. 1032 00:51:48,719 --> 00:51:51,360 Speaker 1: It all comes back down towards look. Pro football is 1033 00:51:51,400 --> 00:51:53,480 Speaker 1: about the money, and it was interesting that the NFL 1034 00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:57,680 Speaker 1: used Jalen for that right because he was suspended and 1035 00:51:57,719 --> 00:51:59,920 Speaker 1: didn't play in the game and had the g q R. 1036 00:52:00,280 --> 00:52:03,360 Speaker 1: But the NFL never misses the opportunity for tweets and 1037 00:52:04,080 --> 00:52:08,040 Speaker 1: capitalize on the popular player. And last week there was 1038 00:52:08,120 --> 00:52:10,839 Speaker 1: no player that made news that was involved in more 1039 00:52:10,920 --> 00:52:13,920 Speaker 1: stories on more networks and in more publications than Jalen Ramsey. 1040 00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:16,479 Speaker 1: So we talked about it being checks being cashion about 1041 00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:19,120 Speaker 1: the money. The NFL is about the money too. Yep, 1042 00:52:19,239 --> 00:52:22,120 Speaker 1: absolutely no doubt about that. With that tweet, I can't 1043 00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:24,000 Speaker 1: tell you how much fun it is to watch this 1044 00:52:24,080 --> 00:52:26,680 Speaker 1: guy play, even when he's practicing. It's fun to watch 1045 00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:29,560 Speaker 1: a guy who can move like that, who plays with 1046 00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:32,520 Speaker 1: such great intensity. Just enjoyed having him back, even for 1047 00:52:32,600 --> 00:52:33,960 Speaker 1: the little bit of time that we got to watch me. 1048 00:52:34,239 --> 00:52:36,640 Speaker 1: It just seems like all was right in the world. Again, 1049 00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:38,520 Speaker 1: didn't When you walk back on the field, everyone was 1050 00:52:38,560 --> 00:52:40,520 Speaker 1: in their right positions, and all the healthy guys back 1051 00:52:40,560 --> 00:52:42,719 Speaker 1: on the field to a s J back, normal back, 1052 00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:45,120 Speaker 1: taven back, it seems like everything was going in the 1053 00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:48,919 Speaker 1: right direction yesterday. You got to do that in this game. 1054 00:52:49,520 --> 00:52:52,120 Speaker 1: You can't count on that, absolutely all right, our last one. 1055 00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:56,319 Speaker 1: The New York Giants official Twitter account, a fellow linebacker says, 1056 00:52:56,400 --> 00:52:58,440 Speaker 1: we take it one week at a time here, but 1057 00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:01,239 Speaker 1: since the schedule came out, I can't wait for the 1058 00:53:01,320 --> 00:53:04,080 Speaker 1: Jaguars game. I gotta think that's just because it's opening 1059 00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:07,040 Speaker 1: Day and it doesn't have anything to do with Olivier Vernon, 1060 00:53:07,080 --> 00:53:09,840 Speaker 1: who played for the Dolphins and was courted by the 1061 00:53:09,960 --> 00:53:15,000 Speaker 1: Jaguars and chose the Giants instead. Um, maybe because he's 1062 00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:17,799 Speaker 1: a high dollar free agent and he wants to prove 1063 00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:20,560 Speaker 1: his value. I mean that's the only thing. Thank you're 1064 00:53:20,560 --> 00:53:23,160 Speaker 1: in New York where they're never really all that nice 1065 00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:24,800 Speaker 1: to you, Right, If you play for the Giants and 1066 00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:27,640 Speaker 1: you're not delivering big numbers based on your big contract, 1067 00:53:27,880 --> 00:53:30,320 Speaker 1: they're gonna remind you of that. Yeah, I feel like 1068 00:53:30,520 --> 00:53:32,640 Speaker 1: he feels like stepping onto the stage with the Jaguars defense. 1069 00:53:32,640 --> 00:53:34,680 Speaker 1: You know this, like it's all about proving themselves absolutely, 1070 00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:36,880 Speaker 1: but we just we've seen a lot of hype around 1071 00:53:37,120 --> 00:53:38,800 Speaker 1: this first week of the regular season. I feel like, 1072 00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:40,680 Speaker 1: more so the normal have a target on their back 1073 00:53:40,719 --> 00:53:42,800 Speaker 1: this year. There's no way around it, especially when you 1074 00:53:42,920 --> 00:53:46,160 Speaker 1: talk like this team talks, right, and it's mostly the defense. 1075 00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:49,160 Speaker 1: The defense likes to write the checks with their words. 1076 00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:52,920 Speaker 1: Now they can cash them old top gunline, they can 1077 00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:56,960 Speaker 1: their bodies can cash those checks. Um, and they you're 1078 00:53:57,000 --> 00:53:59,160 Speaker 1: gonna have to. Those guys are going to have to 1079 00:53:59,239 --> 00:54:01,160 Speaker 1: come up with the kinds of plays like they did 1080 00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:04,360 Speaker 1: after Boarder's interception in Minnesota, because that just fuels the 1081 00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:08,239 Speaker 1: just fuels this team. Okay, Olivia, you get it. They're 1082 00:54:08,280 --> 00:54:12,560 Speaker 1: coming September nine, they'll be there. All right, what else 1083 00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:14,480 Speaker 1: do you have anything? That's it? That's all I got? 1084 00:54:14,960 --> 00:54:19,439 Speaker 1: All right? Now you're yeah, you gotta get your computer fixed? Yeah? Max, 1085 00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:21,440 Speaker 1: can I have a solo shot here?
