1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:01,640 Speaker 1: It's time for a weekly visit with Pride of the 2 00:00:01,680 --> 00:00:04,960 Speaker 1: Jaguars running back Fred Taylor. It's Week six, the Colts 3 00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:08,440 Speaker 1: and the Jaguars at Lucas Oil Stadium. Second time in 4 00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:11,880 Speaker 1: a month seeing the Colts and an opportunity for the 5 00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:15,280 Speaker 1: Jaguars today to get right after back to back losses. 6 00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 1: And if they do that, they're back to five hundred 7 00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:21,080 Speaker 1: and two and one in the division. That would be okay. 8 00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:25,840 Speaker 1: How are you, Fred? I'm good, JP, appreciate that. Listen, opportunities, 9 00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:28,920 Speaker 1: that's what it's all about. You know, no better opportunity 10 00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:32,520 Speaker 1: to erase that taste the defeat from your mouth other 11 00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:36,240 Speaker 1: than getting out there and doing it again. Uh what's 12 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,640 Speaker 1: even better? This is my second least favorite team is 13 00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:43,839 Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Coats, and now you have an opportunity to 14 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,520 Speaker 1: beat them again and sweep them on the season at 15 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,240 Speaker 1: their place. So I think the guys should be excited 16 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,120 Speaker 1: and looking forward to this matchup. Hopefully they can get 17 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,280 Speaker 1: out there and take advantage of what the Coats are offering. 18 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 1: And for me, JP, it starts with the Coats offensive line. 19 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 1: They have not protected Matt Ryan and that means good. 20 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,440 Speaker 1: That's a good thing for a defensive front, you know, 21 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 1: a young, energetic group who's looking to get after the 22 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:14,320 Speaker 1: passer and hopefully they could uh duplicate what they did 23 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:18,280 Speaker 1: and we two versus the Coats. Yeah, they sacked Ryan 24 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 1: five times in the game, but they also made it 25 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 1: an emphasis to stop the running game. Taylor didn't have 26 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 1: much of anything in that game. He's been on the 27 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 1: injury report this week. The hem Hines is on the 28 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:30,959 Speaker 1: injury reporter. So if they can stop that running game, 29 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 1: whoever is back there for Indy, then that gives him 30 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 1: the opportunity to go rush the passer. But you gotta 31 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 1: go get it done though. I meant you still have 32 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 1: to get to the quarterback. That has not been a 33 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:44,320 Speaker 1: given for this defense so far. The pass rushes maybe 34 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 1: the one thing that's been inconsistent at the start of 35 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 1: the season for this defense, right JP, Just to start there. 36 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 1: The first thing they do want to do is make 37 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 1: sure they got the run bottled up. They did just 38 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,040 Speaker 1: an amazing job, you know, in the early point in 39 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 1: the season versus Jonathan Taylor. I took one of the 40 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 1: coach running backs in one of my fantasy league. I 41 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 1: don't know his name, but I handcuffed him after Saint 42 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:13,799 Speaker 1: Hain go down. I don't know the status of uh 43 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 1: Taylor or well in earlier in the week, I didn't 44 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 1: know the status of Taylor and um, you know. But 45 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 1: it starts there stopping the run, keeping everybody at bay, 46 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 1: and then it allows the Coats to become one dimension, 47 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 1: which allows the Jaguars to really you know, focus, pin 48 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 1: their ears back and go after the passer. And again 49 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,800 Speaker 1: that consistency is what we need. We all need to 50 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 1: be better. Oh, they all need to be better, you know, 51 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:44,919 Speaker 1: more consistent, especially in situations that the game brings sports. 52 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 1: You know, just going back a week ago talking about situation, 53 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: you know, just being alert and being aware of where 54 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 1: you are on the field, you know the clock, you 55 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: know at what point during the game you are. And 56 00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 1: it's just the chess match. You know. We always say 57 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:06,239 Speaker 1: football is chess, especially the professional level, Football is the 58 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: game of chess. And the players got to understand that 59 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: more than just hearing it as cliche. It's really a 60 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 1: battle of field position. It's really, uh you know, if 61 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 1: I can take two plays to convert you know, this 62 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 1: first down, which is four yards, then I have to 63 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 1: be able to call my favorite two plays in that 64 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 1: situation and trying to execute accordingly. Uh So, these guys 65 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: really just gotta go up there, JP just just go 66 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 1: all out, go all out, let it hang and worry 67 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 1: about whatever happens after that. Prior of the Jaguars running 68 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 1: back Fred Taylor with us, the Jaguars offense has been 69 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 1: under the fan microscope this week. They were over three 70 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: in the red zone last week, of course, and the 71 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 1: interception from Trevor Lawrence. And now that's seven giveaways from 72 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: the quarterback over the last two weeks. Five in that 73 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 1: Philly game of course, four fumbles and then to last 74 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 1: week including the desperation pass up again the one of 75 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: the red zoners. What's got everybody twisted up? I think 76 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: this week with the young quarterback making a bad decision there. 77 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: But you just gotta fight through this thing. If you're 78 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence. It's game number six in a new offense, 79 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 1: with the new coaching staff, with new receivers, and you 80 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: just gotta fight through it and keep playing and then 81 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: those better decisions in theory should come down the line 82 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: without a doubt. And I I saw some of those 83 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: comments through social media channels earlier in the week, and 84 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 1: uh they were brutal. I mean they were I can 85 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,480 Speaker 1: tell you this. Fans are creative. They come up with 86 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 1: the craziest stuff. But you know it's part of it. Uh. 87 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 1: And it's also part of becoming a fanatic. You know, 88 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: any great relationship, it's gonna be some evan flows, some 89 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,159 Speaker 1: ups and downs, peaks and valleys. You just gotta be 90 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,720 Speaker 1: willing to climb those peaks, try and get to the top. 91 00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:57,679 Speaker 1: And when you slide in the valley, you just gotta 92 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,599 Speaker 1: realize this is the roller coaster I signed up for. 93 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: If you're a Jaguar fan, no matter where you are, 94 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,359 Speaker 1: this is part of sport. This is what you know. 95 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: Part of UH developing that tradition and and and becoming 96 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 1: the fanatic is you know, I wake up the same way. 97 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 1: I'm a Jaguars fan, you know, UH, and I have 98 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: to deal with the upstanded downs and you know I 99 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 1: have to deal when Trevor doesn't make the best decisions. 100 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: I have to deal when a young Trevor and Walker 101 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 1: doesn't make the best decision. UH and get penalized, you know, 102 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 1: and and UH extends drives and all those other guys 103 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 1: I just name the more um uh visible guys, you know, 104 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,599 Speaker 1: because they were the most recent number one selected in 105 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 1: the draft. So pressure comes with that. But you know, 106 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 1: in all fairness to Trevor, as you mentioned, he's brand 107 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 1: new in a in a new system. When things are 108 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: going well, people don't always look at the mistakes we make. 109 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,480 Speaker 1: You know, they tend to get covered up, but when 110 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 1: they go back at they're magnified. Right, So Trevor is 111 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 1: gonna he's gonna be okay. Uh, No need to try 112 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 1: and crown him God right now. He Uh. If you 113 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: look at Josh Allen in Buffalo Bills, Josh struggled for 114 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 1: three years. The first three years. Usually that's the point 115 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,040 Speaker 1: when they say, okay, well are we gonna get another 116 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,599 Speaker 1: player in here? So each player has about a three 117 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 1: year window, you know, to show if he has greatness 118 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 1: in him or if he can manage the team. So 119 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 1: Trevor has some time. You know, he'll figure these things out. 120 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,839 Speaker 1: He'll make better decisions. Just hopefully he can make them 121 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 1: sooner than later. Fred Taylor with us And in terms 122 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 1: of the offense, I mean this is for Doug Peterson. 123 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 1: It goes through the quarterback. It's a passing first. They're 124 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 1: gonna throw at ninety percent of the time, but of 125 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 1: the time it's gonna be passing, and these short passes 126 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:56,719 Speaker 1: to running backs and tight ends they kind of consider 127 00:06:56,880 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 1: runs that other people might think, Hey, just handed off 128 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 1: to the guy. Well, it's not how this offense is designed. 129 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,479 Speaker 1: That's not how the lineage of this offense going back 130 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: to Green Bay days and then to Walsh and San 131 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 1: Francisco where that tree really started through the quarterback. And 132 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 1: I think people have to adjust, you know. I've been 133 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 1: saying all week that they're used to you, Maurice Jones, 134 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 1: Drew James Stewart wonard for that carrying the ball, you know, 135 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 1: thirty times a game. In this day and age, it's 136 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 1: hard to keep up with teams that are putting thirty 137 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 1: five on the board every week. When you're doing that. 138 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 1: That's I think the point here, Yeah, and I agree 139 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 1: with you. They it's an offense. It's a quarterback driven league, 140 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 1: you know, tilted towards offenses. The rules changes have been 141 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 1: tilted towards increased scoring over the years, so things have changed, 142 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 1: the game has evolved, and I think people that are 143 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 1: stuck in the past gotta you know, take a leap, 144 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 1: you know, and catch up what everybody that's here now 145 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 1: watching a game today, because you know, it's rare that 146 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: the running backs getting thirty carries, that alone, thirty touches, 147 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 1: and I'm talking you know a certain amount of attempts 148 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 1: in the past game, you know, checkdowns, short routes where 149 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 1: they're depending on you to win one on ones underneath 150 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 1: as well as you know, twenty plus touches. So imagine 151 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 1: twenty carries on the ground and another ten catches through 152 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 1: the air. I think I did that my first well, 153 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 1: the game I came in for James Stewart against Baltimore, 154 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,199 Speaker 1: I had something close to that that equaled about thirty touches. 155 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 1: But it's just the games evolved. It's a quarterback driven league. 156 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 1: Why do you think those guys are getting the you know, 157 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 1: the big nine figure deals while everybody else is you know, 158 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 1: stuck in the low or the mid hundreds, but not 159 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 1: mid hundreds, but like fifties or whatever. But you know, 160 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 1: looking at coach Peterson, look at it, he's a quarterback, right, 161 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 1: I mean quarterbacks what quarterbacks want to do that I 162 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 1: want to turn around and hand it off. It's just 163 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 1: gonna forever be his mentality. He's a quarterback, a former quarterback, 164 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,319 Speaker 1: so you know, in essence, he wants to come out 165 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 1: and try and throw the ball. He want to get 166 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 1: He want to get his young quarterback right and up 167 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: to part.
