Speaker 1: Happy Hour presented by the Fields Auto Group, JP Shadrick
Speaker 1: John Osier. It's Wednesday of Chargers Week Week fourteen. The
Speaker 1: Jags and the Chargers coming up four or five kickoff
Speaker 1: time at t I A A. Bank Field this Sunday.
Speaker 1: The Jags at four and eight, the Chargers at four
Speaker 1: and eight. Here's where we're getting to on the program today.
Speaker 1: We'll have a preview of that NFL football game coming
Speaker 1: up Sunday, the Chargers and the Jaguars will pick our
Speaker 1: players to watch in this game. We'll have the uniform unveiling.
Speaker 1: What will the Jaguars where this Sunday will hear from
Speaker 1: Jimmy luck To the head equipment manager here in studio
Speaker 1: and our regular co host Chris Conley, Jaguars wide receiver
Speaker 1: joins us in studio as always, and he'll have a
Speaker 1: special surprise guest from the locker room as he always does.
Speaker 1: Last week he brought Klais Campbell. Uh, this is who
Speaker 1: this week? Who knows who's gonna be? Hi? John, what's up?
Speaker 1: How you doing? Yeah? Wednesday of Chargers Week, you get
Speaker 1: the new week started, You try to get the bad
Speaker 1: taste out of your mouth, and you're trying to move
Speaker 1: forward here. But the reality setting in at least is
Speaker 1: feeling around here that if it hasn't said it already,
Speaker 1: four games to go, playoff races out of the out
Speaker 1: of the question right now. Really you have to have
Speaker 1: a lot of help and do everything, and there's a
Speaker 1: quarterback change, and there's reports about the future the coaching staff.
Speaker 1: It is it is not a good feeling. Well no,
Speaker 1: and and I'm fortunately I'm sure people watching this or thinking, well,
Speaker 1: it's not a good feeling, but it's a it's a
Speaker 1: familiar one, and you know, over the less seven or
Speaker 1: eight years they've had this feeling too much. That's why
Speaker 1: you're having such a you know, talk about all the
Speaker 1: outside stuff, and that's why it feels so dismal, is
Speaker 1: because it's a yet again situation. UM, I don't know
Speaker 1: what's going to happen after the season. I don't think
Speaker 1: anybody does, except for shot Con And that is sort
Speaker 1: of the everything you say about the team right now
Speaker 1: is shrouded in that. That's that's coloring everything. It's on
Speaker 1: everybody's mind. He really thinks about this, and that's only
Speaker 1: human nature outside the locker room. I'm sure inside the
Speaker 1: locker room is probably some thought about that. Aby Jones
Speaker 1: talked about a little bit today. Um, but from a
Speaker 1: day to day, hour to hour, what they have to
Speaker 1: do and what we're covering standpoint and Artaman she said
Speaker 1: it best. You know. He was asked today in his
Speaker 1: press conference, what do you want to do with the
Speaker 1: last four games of the season, and he said, oh,
Speaker 1: I can really worry about beating Sandy, I mean beating
Speaker 1: yeah Los Angeles Chargers. That's a cliche, it's what you'd
Speaker 1: expect him to say, but it's also the reality that
Speaker 1: they operate in. So that's what we'll talk about and
Speaker 1: we'll we'll cover a game Sunday, And as Dougas said,
Speaker 1: often you know, at some point when you're around this,
Speaker 1: even if there's other stuff going on. You just want
Speaker 1: to win because it just feels so much better than
Speaker 1: the alternative, and you just want to get the taste
Speaker 1: out of your mouth. And uh, you know when you're
Speaker 1: walking around here, even at five and eight after a win,
Speaker 1: it just it's just better. It's like old It's like
Speaker 1: old nucleuse set. You know, winning it's like better than yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: five and eight is better than four and nine. I checked,
Speaker 1: maybe Calvin correct. Doug bron spoke today with the Jaguars media.
Speaker 1: Of course, was asked about the motivation for him and
Speaker 1: for the football team with four games remaining. You know,
Speaker 1: the players have have been fighting, um focused, practicing. Well,
Speaker 1: we just got to figure out a way to win
Speaker 1: games and get a good taste back in your mouth.
Speaker 1: You know, it's such a bad taste, you know when
Speaker 1: things are going the way they are right now that
Speaker 1: you know you can't control what's gonna happen afterwards, but
Speaker 1: you know you can control everything while you're here. So
Speaker 1: you know, I'm trying to make sure that you know,
Speaker 1: we have a clear vision of what we have to do.
Speaker 1: We have a clear goal and what we want to
Speaker 1: accomplish and be able to stand up and motivate and
Speaker 1: lead the coaches in this team every day. He wasn't
Speaker 1: asked specifically about that report of his future that came
Speaker 1: out earlier in the week, but he kind of addressed
Speaker 1: it there. When you don't know what's gonna happen, you
Speaker 1: can only control them now. Well. And he may not
Speaker 1: have even known about a specific report, but he's been
Speaker 1: around long enough. If you if you know anything from
Speaker 1: being around, uh, it's that he absolutely has a precise
Speaker 1: idea of how this league works. He's not a he's
Speaker 1: not a guy who came into this job from college
Speaker 1: who was naive about the NFL. He knows that if
Speaker 1: you're out of the playoff chase in the NFL, unless
Speaker 1: you're you know, Bill Belichick or maybe Pete Carroll this time,
Speaker 1: you're guys who have been there forever one Super Bowls
Speaker 1: for their teams. If you're out of the playoff chase
Speaker 1: and there's a month ago in the season, uh, you
Speaker 1: don't have to go on Twitter to know what's on Twitter,
Speaker 1: if that makes any sense. And I and you have
Speaker 1: to watch the NFL network, there's going to be people
Speaker 1: with reports about your job. So he gets that as
Speaker 1: well as any coach I've ever been around, and he
Speaker 1: deals with it. I believe him more than I believe
Speaker 1: a lot of coaches have been around when they say,
Speaker 1: I just don't read it, don't listen to it. I
Speaker 1: don't think Doug thinks about it very much. I am.
Speaker 1: I am sure that when he does think about it,
Speaker 1: he probably thinks more about his assistance and about how
Speaker 1: that's affecting everybody, because you know, as a head coach,
Speaker 1: he's he's been doing uh seven or eight years. He
Speaker 1: gets it. He's in a situation where, you know, if
Speaker 1: he's not here next year, financially, he's fine. All that stuff. Assistance,
Speaker 1: you know, it's a different story for people Underdugs. So
Speaker 1: that's who he's concerned about more than anything. The big picture.
Speaker 1: He knows. Um, but I just kind of kept thinking
Speaker 1: all day to day jp UM, listen to Doug, listen
Speaker 1: to Gardner. It's stuff you say at four and eight.
Speaker 1: They're all the quotes that we've heard around here before.
Speaker 1: There's stuff you have to say. It's fine, but there's
Speaker 1: not a whole lot of insight to be had right now.
Speaker 1: The coach is not going to mention all the reports
Speaker 1: going on the front office isn't gonna talk about things
Speaker 1: that are going on. You're playing out this season hoping
Speaker 1: to win as many games as you can for the
Speaker 1: players and wondering what's gonna happen next. That's that. That's
Speaker 1: that's it. That's what it is. Yeah, I mean, I
Speaker 1: wish I had better insight, and I wish it wasn't
Speaker 1: more experienced with. I wish I wasn't as experienced with
Speaker 1: We've seen this a time or two. Let's yes, but
Speaker 1: let's do talk a little ball this week. One of
Speaker 1: the prevailing issues from last week's game where the penalties
Speaker 1: sixteen penalties against this Jag seemed the second most in
Speaker 1: a single game and franchise history, and that you've seen
Speaker 1: now for the season there with the the offensive line,
Speaker 1: penalties have been and the question was more about Jowan
Speaker 1: Taylor's season with the penalties he's had. There has been
Speaker 1: some good with Joan Taylor as well, but Doug Marone
Speaker 1: moving forward on that answer made it for the entire
Speaker 1: team as well. You know, in order to be successful,
Speaker 1: you know, you can't and anything you do, you can't
Speaker 1: make the same mistake twice, you know, And that's the
Speaker 1: one thing and you know I told him before, I said,
Speaker 1: whether it be like the holding penalties or whatever, and
Speaker 1: I went through a couple of things with the team
Speaker 1: and I said, and anything in life, you just gotta
Speaker 1: learn from it, and you've got to you've got to
Speaker 1: go I've seen I've seen us learn and then go
Speaker 1: back it's learned, and then go backwards, you know. And
Speaker 1: it's it's one thing, um, you know, after another. And
Speaker 1: that's the same with us as coaches. And you know
Speaker 1: that's that's that's my job. That's where that's where I
Speaker 1: haven't done a good job. Where you know, it's my
Speaker 1: job to make sure that we're help a lot more
Speaker 1: consistent than we've been. And we have it so others.
Speaker 1: Doug mor Own discussing the penalties mainly and and some
Speaker 1: of the mistakes that keep happening week over week over week. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and uh, at some point you're just gonna stop doing him.
Speaker 1: That's the answered. I like that today. And I think
Speaker 1: there's been eight games with nine or more penalties at
Speaker 1: it twelve. Yeah, Maroon would argue he has said that,
Speaker 1: you know, the analytics would say that that doesn't you know,
Speaker 1: a lot of times winning and losing the penalties, but
Speaker 1: when you have sixteen people believes that that's gonna help
Speaker 1: you lose it. And Doug, I've heard him talk about
Speaker 1: analysts quite a bit. He believes in a lot of
Speaker 1: things with analytics, and I know the one conflict that
Speaker 1: he's talked about having with it is this idea, the
Speaker 1: penalties don't hurt if if if you're purely analytics. Uh,
Speaker 1: penalties don't necessarily dictate wins or losses by percentages, And
Speaker 1: Doug I think Doug is probably correct on this one
Speaker 1: of You know, it may not say in the statue
Speaker 1: sheet that it's it's hurting you, but it just has
Speaker 1: to when you're giving away yards. Yeah, and that's uh,
Speaker 1: you know, when you think about it, in the course
Speaker 1: of your average, a good offense in this league gets
Speaker 1: what four yards in a game? Four yards the game
Speaker 1: pretty good, right, a quarter of that? So you're you're
Speaker 1: giving away a quarter of your work that day. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's they hurt. Holding penalties particularly hurt. I'm sure there's
Speaker 1: analytics to support this, but holding penalty in a drive
Speaker 1: h it just kills it. Maybe a false art doesn't.
Speaker 1: Maybe a defensive hold is less damaging than an offensive hold.
Speaker 1: Because you can come back from the offensive, hold your
Speaker 1: ten yards back and here you go first. And yeah,
Speaker 1: so anyway, obviously sixteens too many, and it's a huge problem.
Speaker 1: I don't know reallytively. Yeah, it's gonna get fixed because
Speaker 1: we've been talking about it for you're really weeks. Even
Speaker 1: more than that. It's been an issue for this team
Speaker 1: during this regime, and it's a tough thing to get past.
Speaker 1: Big story of the day, the quarterback. Gardner went to
Speaker 1: the second discussing things with the media today for the
Speaker 1: first time in a few weeks, back at the Helm
Speaker 1: today and back under center this week against the Los
Speaker 1: Angeles Chargers, and he suddenly learned some things when he
Speaker 1: was out the last few weeks. You've got a million
Speaker 1: different things that you're having to focus in on, um,
Speaker 1: and you kind of lose some of the bigger stuff.
Speaker 1: I guess I should say something smaller stuff sometimes, UM.
Speaker 1: But when you when you're out of that role, you
Speaker 1: can kind of step back and see the little details
Speaker 1: and UM. It was a really good experience for me
Speaker 1: being able to be able to watch Nick and see
Speaker 1: how he does it. It is a great opportunity to
Speaker 1: learn and like I said, be able to step back
Speaker 1: and see it kind of from a different perspective. Found
Speaker 1: it interesting John that they changed some of the practice
Speaker 1: schedule to give him some actual reps, which is that rarely,
Speaker 1: if ever happens for a backup. And by the way,
Speaker 1: to see the picture we had him from when he
Speaker 1: got here, has he just decided never to groom again?
Speaker 1: I mean the hair the must said, it's it's fantastic.
Speaker 1: I can't get away with it. But more power to him. Uh,
Speaker 1: it's interesting that they gave him the reps um. Doug
Speaker 1: talked about that today in in his presser and said, basically,
Speaker 1: I think got correctly his belief with a lot of
Speaker 1: times teams do a disservice to younger quarterbacks because if
Speaker 1: you don't give them some reps during the season. I
Speaker 1: think some people don't realize how NFL practice work. During
Speaker 1: the regular season. It's all about getting your first team
Speaker 1: offense and the players who will play ready for what
Speaker 1: the opposing team will do that week, and that often
Speaker 1: dictates that the backup quarterback is a scout team guy,
Speaker 1: which means they never worked within the offense, never work
Speaker 1: with other starters. Doug, I think probably based on some
Speaker 1: of what happened during the preseason with preparation and how
Speaker 1: Gardner looked with backups. Remember, uh, I think he wanted
Speaker 1: to make sure Gardner stayed ready, Uh, that he had
Speaker 1: a chance to develop. And it's unusual, it's not particularly
Speaker 1: surprising considering the situation, how well Gardner had played, So
Speaker 1: I'm sure Gardener benefited from it. I think more than anything,
Speaker 1: what you're gonna see from Gardner um probably not anything tangible,
Speaker 1: but just stuff that and I and he talked a
Speaker 1: little bit about it today, when you are in a
Speaker 1: situation for the first time, even as mentally advanced as
Speaker 1: Gardener is, I can't imagine how fast things must have
Speaker 1: felt like they were moving for him, and not just
Speaker 1: during the game, but everything. I'm sure when he looks
Speaker 1: back those eight weeks he started, he probably can't even
Speaker 1: remember some of the days because it's just coming at
Speaker 1: you so fast. You're trying to you keep breathing and
Speaker 1: figure out what you need to do at two o'clock
Speaker 1: on a Thursday. Well, I'm sure the two weeks out
Speaker 1: he had a chance to kind of look around and say, Okay,
Speaker 1: that's what Flip was saying about that play, that time. Okay,
Speaker 1: I get it. You know we've all had that after
Speaker 1: a show. You know, Hey, I shouldn't have said this,
Speaker 1: I should have get I should have gone this direction. Well,
Speaker 1: I'm sure he had any number of situation like that,
Speaker 1: and even during a game where he saw Nixt do
Speaker 1: something said, okay, I see what you know? A war
Speaker 1: hoopy OPENSI flying coach was telling me about that read
Speaker 1: on that point. I get it. Now will we ever
Speaker 1: know exactly what you've earned? Probably because you won't go
Speaker 1: every detail. But I'm sure there's stuff like that that
Speaker 1: he'll benefit from, where he'll just be more calm and
Speaker 1: more ready for a situation tangibly. What'll that be, I
Speaker 1: don't know, but I expect him be better than he
Speaker 1: was in his first eight games. Let's flip into defense quickly. Here.
Speaker 1: Miles Jack out again today, So that's who knows moving
Speaker 1: ahead how this week is gonna go. But he did
Speaker 1: not play in last week's game. Donald Plane, of course
Speaker 1: made the startup middle linebacker that was a big story
Speaker 1: with thirteen tackles last week. They're facing Philip Rivers this week,
Speaker 1: a guy who's ripped this franchise to shreds really over
Speaker 1: the years six and two record against the Jaguars all time.
Speaker 1: So we'll see if Myles can get back. What's your
Speaker 1: what's your gut here? Well my gut and I'm not
Speaker 1: a chance to talk to anybody about this, but he
Speaker 1: went limited Friday, and Dougs tone was that was better
Speaker 1: than he thought and maybe there'd be a chance. So
Speaker 1: not particularly surprising or overly conserving. He'd be better for
Speaker 1: his practicing today, but not a huge surprise with the
Speaker 1: knee that I'm I understanding. By the way to clarify
Speaker 1: is this is not the the degenerative issue you from.
Speaker 1: I've had some questions about that. Is this the same
Speaker 1: thing my understandings, it's not that um that this is.
Speaker 1: You know, NFL players have knee stuff during the season.
Speaker 1: Rest of your team that comes and goes. So I
Speaker 1: think it's more that, But not surprising that he wouldn't
Speaker 1: go today. If last Friday was a situation where he
Speaker 1: was getting close and just need a couple more days
Speaker 1: rest with him, why not rest him a couple more
Speaker 1: days and get it off there and see how it
Speaker 1: is Friday. I don't think he's gonna at this stage
Speaker 1: of the season learn that much benefit that much from practice,
Speaker 1: probably more benefit from the rest. All right, let's come back.
Speaker 1: We'll get our players to watch a little more on
Speaker 1: the Los Angeles Chargers as well, who've lost a lot
Speaker 1: of close games this year. A little later, Jimmy luck
Speaker 1: Had equipment manager joins us for the uniform unveiling. What
Speaker 1: will the Jaguars where the Sunday against the Chargers. You're
Speaker 1: at t I a bank field. We'll find out coming
Speaker 1: up a little bit and wide receiver Chris Conley joins

Speaker 1: Jaguars Happy Hour presented by the Fields Auto Group, JP Shadick,
Speaker 1: John Osier. The Chargers Jaguars game this Sunday presented by
Speaker 1: Universal Orlando Resort four or five kickoff time the Los
Speaker 1: Angeles Chargers at four and eight the Jacksonville Jaguars at
Speaker 1: four and eight. Philip Rivers is still playing. I mean,
Speaker 1: this guy has been at it for a long long time,
Speaker 1: seventeen years now in the league. And his numbers this year, well,
Speaker 1: the interception numbers have spiked over the last three weeks
Speaker 1: or so. He had I think, um seven interceptions in
Speaker 1: a two week span right before the BI week a
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago, so that they got people up
Speaker 1: in arms a little bit in l A. It did.
Speaker 1: But well, wherever the Charger fans are, where the charge
Speaker 1: of fans are, um, you know, it's uh, it's interesting
Speaker 1: that all three of the two thousand four quarterbacks sort
Speaker 1: of reaching that point in their careers where you wonder
Speaker 1: how much longer they play, meaning Eli uh Bannon Rivers.
Speaker 1: Rivers is the only one really playing, and he's had
Speaker 1: the run of interceptions, which worries you a little bit.
Speaker 1: I like Philip Priers. I watched him play, so I
Speaker 1: hate to see a situation where his career might be
Speaker 1: coming to an end. The other side with him, though,
Speaker 1: is he's a gun slinger who is not going to
Speaker 1: play in such a way to protect his stats. Meaning
Speaker 1: there are some quarterbacks who, you know, rather than just
Speaker 1: throw it up for grabs in a situation, are going
Speaker 1: to be are gonna be smart travel with the interception.
Speaker 1: Rivers is at the point of his career if he
Speaker 1: has three sacks in the game and he's trying to
Speaker 1: throw him back into the game on the last series
Speaker 1: he's he didn't care about the fourth one. You know,
Speaker 1: he's not worried about his numbers in that sense. So
Speaker 1: I'm sure some of those interceptions came at the end
Speaker 1: of games where he's already throwing a few and it's like, look,
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm just trying to get this team back
Speaker 1: in it somehow. If I risk any reception. Great. Also,
Speaker 1: with a guy like this who's as smart as he is,
Speaker 1: I don't think that he can't throw up three fifty
Speaker 1: four touchdowns and uh you no interception. So yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't think he's as consistent as he used to be.
Speaker 1: He's gettable. My my concern with this defense playing Philip
Speaker 1: Rivers is can they stop Gordon and r enough to
Speaker 1: get Philip into situations where he's off balance throwing. Remember
Speaker 1: the huge interception that they had out here two years ago.
Speaker 1: Boys interception came when they had the Chargers under pressure,
Speaker 1: they were backed up against their own goalne Rivers was
Speaker 1: trying to make a play Boy made the play. It was.
Speaker 1: It was a situation where the Chargers sort of had
Speaker 1: to throw. So that's where you get him in trouble.
Speaker 1: This Jaguars defense hasn't been very good at putting offenses
Speaker 1: into that situation, so that's where you're you think, well,
Speaker 1: maybe Rivers is struggling. Is this defense good or good?
Speaker 1: Right enough? Good? Enough right now to make him continually struggling.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Wasn't that the play where Boy nearly
Speaker 1: took it to the house and Philip tackled him like
Speaker 1: right at the goal line and get whacked on the
Speaker 1: head with his knee or a couple of years. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and it was one where boy A sort of came
Speaker 1: off of another defender and Rivers really made the right
Speaker 1: read and Boy made a play above the xs and os.
Speaker 1: It's the kind of play that you make when you're going, well,
Speaker 1: that's that's right. And then only two times with the
Speaker 1: Jaguars have beaten Philip Rivers, where the last two Jaguars
Speaker 1: playoff teams. Think about that, oh seven and team, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I need to break that trend. This team is not
Speaker 1: going to playoffs, but it would be good to beat Rivers.
Speaker 1: So it's yeah, it Uh. He's so savvy that you
Speaker 1: can't count on him being what he was two weeks
Speaker 1: ago and three weeks ago. You have to assume he's
Speaker 1: going to play well because he's smart enough to do
Speaker 1: it even if the arm is not there. Alright, let's
Speaker 1: get our players to watch for the Jaguars this week,
Speaker 1: and I'll start off this week since you started off
Speaker 1: the last two weeks. Yes, we're keeping score here. I'm
Speaker 1: going first today and I'm going to Wan Taylor, Jaguar's
Speaker 1: right tackle. Doug Maron discussed him today in the press
Speaker 1: conference and was asked about his penalties this year. But
Speaker 1: there are some good things, and um Maron said, hey, really,
Speaker 1: the next four weeks will be a good barometer of
Speaker 1: where this guy is gonna go. That they still are
Speaker 1: very confident in him, and they like what he's done
Speaker 1: this year for the most part at right tackle. But
Speaker 1: the penalty thing's got to go away at some point.
Speaker 1: A team high thirt team against Jowan Taylor, the rookie
Speaker 1: right tackle from Florida. I expect him to play well
Speaker 1: at the last quarter of the season. I talked to
Speaker 1: him briefly today. Um I like him. It seems like
Speaker 1: he cares about being good. It seems like he's focused
Speaker 1: on the right things. Yes, he's struggling with penalties, but
Speaker 1: everything about him, when you combine the physical makeup, which
Speaker 1: nobody would doubt that he has with he maybe reminds
Speaker 1: me a little of DJ Chark last year. He's playing
Speaker 1: more than DJs. Maybe it's not a great comparison, But
Speaker 1: all you ever heard about DJ Chark was how hard
Speaker 1: he was working, how focused he was, And when you
Speaker 1: combine that with uh skill, which they both have, it's
Speaker 1: very rare for a guy who knows how to work,
Speaker 1: who also has a physical ability not to eventually turn
Speaker 1: that into something. And that's what Joan Taylor feels like.
Speaker 1: I get these committed to many penalties. Um, I just
Speaker 1: can't believe that's going to continue. And he seems like
Speaker 1: the kind of kid who will grasp that I've got
Speaker 1: I've got four more games with this, I can either
Speaker 1: feel really good about myself after the season or he
Speaker 1: feel really lousy about myself after the season. Um, he
Speaker 1: seems like the kind who will work and have a
Speaker 1: better last four games. Plus, he had a really bad
Speaker 1: game last week, but except for the penalties, and you
Speaker 1: want to say that because penalties count. Except with the penalty,
Speaker 1: he had played really well. He probably his worst game
Speaker 1: last week. There's no real statistical evidence there at the
Speaker 1: course of the season that he's gonna continue plays poorly
Speaker 1: Dight against Tampa. That feels like the outlier to me
Speaker 1: with Juwan Taylor, my other players plural to watch this
Speaker 1: week a position group, the linebackers, and you said, well, yeah,
Speaker 1: of course, right, Well, here are the linebackers on the
Speaker 1: current roster. Miles Jack who knows his status for this week.
Speaker 1: He did not practice today, he missed last week's game.
Speaker 1: We haven't seen Jake Ryan on defense yet. He was
Speaker 1: just activated last weekly. On Jacobs has twenty tackles this year.
Speaker 1: Donald Paine started last week that thirteen tackles. That's um
Speaker 1: more tackles than he had defensive snaps in his career
Speaker 1: going into that game. Quincy Williams, we know he's the
Speaker 1: rookie this year, the third rounder. And then Austin Calletro
Speaker 1: has had time at middle linebacker when needed, but only
Speaker 1: six tackles this year, and a guy who's played a
Speaker 1: lot of special teams. That's your linebacker group. So if
Speaker 1: Miles is down and for for some reason, Donald Payne
Speaker 1: you know, is not playing well or whatever happens, Calletro's
Speaker 1: in there. That's the linebacker group right now for this team. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and you know it's not news that we would like
Speaker 1: to see Jake Ryan play. Take Ryan is interesting because
Speaker 1: obviously this season I haven't talked to him very much,
Speaker 1: but I'm sure he would even say it's being complete washed,
Speaker 1: very disappointed they had minuity back, but he he was
Speaker 1: a good player for Green Bay. So is this a
Speaker 1: guy that when you start talking about, Okay, what are
Speaker 1: they gonna do next year? Where are they? How strong
Speaker 1: are they? Boy? They're miserable at linebacker. Maybe over the
Speaker 1: last four games Jake Ryan can oh that you need
Speaker 1: one less thing than you thought you need, Meaning if
Speaker 1: he plays well, then maybe you have some options in
Speaker 1: linebacker you didn't know you had. He he was signed
Speaker 1: to do that this year, hadn't been able to. Maybe
Speaker 1: that's a storyline you can look for overall, tough year
Speaker 1: for that bunch. Okay, I've got the Jowan Taylor and
Speaker 1: the linebacking corps. John who you got today? I wanna
Speaker 1: be quick because Jimmy Luck just walked in and you
Speaker 1: know he waits for no man. I'll go with Josh
Speaker 1: Allen first. If they can get the runs stopped. This
Speaker 1: is a game where Alan can make a difference because
Speaker 1: you're trying to pressure Philip Rivers into mistakes and he's
Speaker 1: been the most consistent pass rusher. He's gotten home even
Speaker 1: when he hasn't gotten home, he's gotten pressures, So, uh,
Speaker 1: I would expect him. We talked about John Taylor earlier.
Speaker 1: I would really expect that kind of at at at
Speaker 1: a Josh Allen of you know what, I una finished
Speaker 1: my rookie season strong. He cares about it from from listening,
Speaker 1: from watching him in the locker. I haven't talked to
Speaker 1: him in a couple of weeks. He doesn't seem like
Speaker 1: he's hit any sort of wall in terms of personality.
Speaker 1: He doesn't look like he's dragon. Probably on the field,
Speaker 1: he would tell you he has all all rookies do.
Speaker 1: But he's still the same guy in the locker room,
Speaker 1: still looks like he's up, so so it's like he's
Speaker 1: into it. I think this kid's a special kid, and
Speaker 1: I think you'll finish strong. Josh Allen on defense, how
Speaker 1: about offense? John, I'm gonna go Deed Westbrook as a
Speaker 1: whole with the wide receivers, I think I went I
Speaker 1: think I'm at wide receivers as a whole last week.
Speaker 1: They need to make more of an impact than they
Speaker 1: have the last two or three games. Some of it
Speaker 1: has been because the quarterback played for a couple of
Speaker 1: weeks wasn't exactly helping him they weren't helping each other.
Speaker 1: Uh d. D Westbrook is a guy who seems to
Speaker 1: respond when Minshews in the game a little bit seemed
Speaker 1: to last week, can make plays. Logically, he would be
Speaker 1: the guy who makes plays off scramble mode because DDT,
Speaker 1: I continue to work hard to get open the middle
Speaker 1: of the field somewhere along the line. Skill players on
Speaker 1: this team have to start making plays above the XS
Speaker 1: and ose you need something right now to dazzle you.
Speaker 1: DD He's a guy who historically has been able to
Speaker 1: do that. So let's watch d D. Alright, let's do it.
Speaker 1: Let's do it. Yeah, You've got d U Westbrook and
Speaker 1: Josh Allen. I've got Jowan Taylor and the linebackers that
Speaker 1: were back in Rome with Jimmy luckin studio head equipment manager.

Speaker 1: quite honest with you. And that's just how it is
Speaker 1: in the in that locker room today. It's just a
Speaker 1: little you know, it's four games left. The playoffs are
Speaker 1: kind of out of the picture. It's a how's the

Speaker 1: that are upbeat, guys always are still upbeat. Um, you know,
Speaker 1: there's nobody's down. Um, you know, we we are a
Speaker 1: younger team, and so it feels like a lot of
Speaker 1: the young guys feel like, hey, there's a chance for
Speaker 1: me to put something on tape. UM, And so you know,
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't. I haven't felt anything back there,
Speaker 1: you know. I mean for us, we've we still got
Speaker 1: to do the same job whether we're winning or losing. UM.

Speaker 1: it's very personal relationship. You get to know him, so
Speaker 1: there's a trust where I'm sure they act very normal
Speaker 1: around you guys no matter the situation. Whereas with the
Speaker 1: media when fans see them, it's a much different environment. No,
Speaker 1: there's definitely there's guys will come back there sometimes when
Speaker 1: sometimes when the media is in there as a little
Speaker 1: less gape, come out and hang out with us, see

Speaker 1: I was proud of Yeah, you know. I was like, all,
Speaker 1: you know, we had pretty good DBS and I was
Speaker 1: over on the so I was like, yeah, get the
Speaker 1: freshman probably just jumped and ran away from Well no,
Speaker 1: I didn't run away to try to grab me, but
Speaker 1: I grabbed back because I'm a little bigger than the
Speaker 1: typical Treshman receiver. So it wasn't it wasn't that bad. Well,
Speaker 1: let's get right to it. The cleats on the table,
Speaker 1: my cause my cleats this week. They were unveiled yesterday
Speaker 1: the unboxing ceremony of of the different causes for all
Speaker 1: the players and Chris, what do you got for us here?
Speaker 1: I have some wonderful blue cleats that you can have
Speaker 1: for the low price of the highest bidder. Proceeds going
Speaker 1: to the Ocean Conservancy Organization. You know, they do a
Speaker 1: lot of work in legislation um to basically protect our
Speaker 1: oceans and the life in them and the life on them. Um,
Speaker 1: and basically keep them clean, keep them safe, preserve them
Speaker 1: for our children and all the people in the ecosystems
Speaker 1: and communities that thrive off pretty neat. I like that.
Speaker 1: Those are good looking shoes to good man. The artists
Speaker 1: did a great job on those. Ye Do you do
Speaker 1: the beach pickups too? Uh? You know when I am
Speaker 1: on the beach and I see something, I pick it up. Um,
Speaker 1: you know, I haven't done since I've been in Jacksonville.
Speaker 1: I haven't done a beach pick up since I've been
Speaker 1: in Jacksonville. I probably need to do one. But actually,
Speaker 1: you know, like where I'm at on the beach is
Speaker 1: actually not that bad. People are are pretty you know.
Speaker 1: They want the beaches clean here, and they do a
Speaker 1: really good job of picking up after themselves on the
Speaker 1: beach here. All right, that's a great cause. We like
Speaker 1: that good stuff. Hey, what are your what's yours of mine?
Speaker 1: These glorious things right here? Where's the camera? Let me
Speaker 1: get these right here? Okay, right here? Yeah, so these
Speaker 1: glorious things right here. You see they have the military
Speaker 1: fatigue with the fighter jet mouths, with the numbers in
Speaker 1: the front I'm a firm supporter of Wounded Warrior. I've
Speaker 1: been that pretty much since we started the my cause
Speaker 1: my cleats. Uh, both my parents are both in the
Speaker 1: Army military. My dad so served over in Iraq and
Speaker 1: then when he came back, he was like, uh Airborne
Speaker 1: first Rangers and when he came back, he had jumped
Speaker 1: out of a plane, broke his foot, had some little troubles,
Speaker 1: you know, stuff they come back with. They really helped
Speaker 1: him with his getting his mental to stability back and
Speaker 1: things like that. So big shout out to the people
Speaker 1: down to the Via Hospital in Dublin, Georgia. Uh, they
Speaker 1: take care of my mom now and now that she
Speaker 1: was retired, so they do a lot of things with
Speaker 1: the wounded warrior. I used to stay in the DC area,
Speaker 1: used to really go see how it really was. And
Speaker 1: I just want to give all the support back to
Speaker 1: the men and women that go out and sacrifice their
Speaker 1: limbs and the mental forward to just for us to
Speaker 1: come out and where are these cleats to support them
Speaker 1: for a day. I mean, definitely think there should be
Speaker 1: a little bit more support besides just the players and
Speaker 1: what we do. But I mean, whatever little we can
Speaker 1: do that reaches out to them they see greatly. I'm
Speaker 1: glad forward a window passionate answer. Not every community initiative
Speaker 1: is built alike, I guess, but this one, to me
Speaker 1: has been remarkable in the way it's taken off, the
Speaker 1: way it's had staying power. And for you guys, you
Speaker 1: really do put a lot of thought and heart, and
Speaker 1: I think most players do. This is a really cool one,
Speaker 1: isn't it. I Mean, I guess cool may not be
Speaker 1: the right word, but most of these guys when they
Speaker 1: do the cleets, it's something you guys truly care about. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think the lead to a good job because I mean,
Speaker 1: guys were pretty much just wearing any typically they wanted to,
Speaker 1: and it was putting finds with stuff. But you know,
Speaker 1: some people got enough money for the find they really
Speaker 1: don't care. But you know the kind of you know.
Speaker 1: I like how the league accepted it and said, Okay,
Speaker 1: we're gonna put a positive spin on it, because I
Speaker 1: remember when the Leak was here, every week he had
Speaker 1: a he had a different cleet for a different undation.
Speaker 1: He was always giving back and he was just saying like, well,
Speaker 1: you know, as long as I donated to somebody, I
Speaker 1: can wear the cleet. So if a guy wants to
Speaker 1: go out there and be fashionable and then do good
Speaker 1: cause at the end of the day, I feel like
Speaker 1: it's a win win for us in the league. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I think it's an letting players pick, you know, what
Speaker 1: they want to be involved and things that are near
Speaker 1: and dear to their heart. Is one of the reasons
Speaker 1: why My Cause and My Cleats is so widely participated
Speaker 1: in and why it's so effective. Uh, And I mean
Speaker 1: it's just an awesome experience to walk out on the
Speaker 1: field and see just all these guys and the artwork,
Speaker 1: and uh actually asked them about what it is that
Speaker 1: they're passionate about and then just hear them go off
Speaker 1: about why that's so important to him. You know, you
Speaker 1: just saw that with Avery. Um. But there's a lot
Speaker 1: of goodwill that's out on the field on this Sunday,
Speaker 1: and um, we're excited to be a part of it.
Speaker 1: Why is it so important to you, Chris? I know
Speaker 1: you're a surfer, you know, but is it is it
Speaker 1: just something beyond that that you are so passionate about this?
Speaker 1: I mean, just if you look at the percentage of
Speaker 1: the world that is affected by our oceans, whether it's
Speaker 1: their community is thriving off of uh it for business,
Speaker 1: for food, uh, cosmetics and medicine. UM. And just like
Speaker 1: the wildlife that we have that we know of and
Speaker 1: that's undiscovered uh in the ocean. I've had my eyes
Speaker 1: opened so many times on dives. UM. I like to
Speaker 1: scuba dive. My eyes have been opened so many times
Speaker 1: by the things that I could see down there that
Speaker 1: I could read about in a book, but seeing it
Speaker 1: with your your own eyes has just been given me
Speaker 1: this this overwhelming sense of thankfulness and just you know,
Speaker 1: being good stewards. I firmly believe that, you know, God
Speaker 1: wants us to be good stewarts or the earth while
Speaker 1: we're on it, and uh, you know that's just one
Speaker 1: of the things that we can do that is going
Speaker 1: to highly affect the lives of our children, you know
Speaker 1: while we're here. Good stuff. Let's talk a little football now, Fellas,
Speaker 1: what is the mood in the building this week? Four
Speaker 1: and eight? Record four ago? Quarterback? Change? All the media
Speaker 1: and stuff around the team right now? What's the field
Speaker 1: in the locker room right now? Chris, you know you
Speaker 1: can't let things become a circus um. If you want
Speaker 1: to go out there and and practice and put in
Speaker 1: a game plan and give your best effort to go
Speaker 1: out and win a game. You can't let things become
Speaker 1: a circus. There's a lot going on in the building.
Speaker 1: There's a lot going on outside of the building that
Speaker 1: people are trying to bring in the building. Uh, And
Speaker 1: you've got to just eliminate as best as you can
Speaker 1: those distractions and eliminate that noise and focus in on
Speaker 1: the task at hand. Um. You know, put in your
Speaker 1: game plans, study those game plans to a t, and
Speaker 1: get ready to go out there and execute with whoever
Speaker 1: it is. Andy, But you stay in the locker room today.
Speaker 1: If you love the game, this is where you show it, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean because every day, you know, you hear people
Speaker 1: say all the time, I'll play this game for free.
Speaker 1: That's just how much they love it. So, I mean,
Speaker 1: we have nothing to play for. You just gotta go
Speaker 1: out there and just give you a love to the game,
Speaker 1: which is gonna be shown to the fans, is gonna
Speaker 1: be shown to a teammates based upon how know, how
Speaker 1: hard you play. And then you know, just listening to
Speaker 1: Chris talk, he said everything perfectly and I think, you know,
Speaker 1: if you really need something to play for it besides
Speaker 1: the love of the game and your teammates. My thing
Speaker 1: is we go and run, we live. Win all our
Speaker 1: last couple of games, and we finished in eight Nate
Speaker 1: and a Nate. Probably not to a lot of people,
Speaker 1: you know, on this team that first got here. You know,
Speaker 1: it's not the playoffs, it's not nothing. But someone that's
Speaker 1: been here for seven years and only got one winning
Speaker 1: record on this But I'll take a Nate. I'll take
Speaker 1: a night on seven. You know what I'm saying, Like, well,
Speaker 1: I can't get non sef, but I'll take an eight name,
Speaker 1: you know, just to show that we want to fight,
Speaker 1: that we don't want to give up. That just because
Speaker 1: we didn't meet our aspirations and our goals doesn't mean
Speaker 1: what You're gonna come out here and just take it,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. We have a lot of guys,
Speaker 1: have a lot of pride. We have guys with families
Speaker 1: that have to go out there and play to make
Speaker 1: sure they still have a job. I mean, we all do.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's been bad, whether it was a new
Speaker 1: coaching staff or the same whoever is here. You gotta
Speaker 1: prove it to them that when Tims was tough, you
Speaker 1: was it rise up. And I think with some observers
Speaker 1: sometimes I don't grasp this isn't the NBA, where there's
Speaker 1: eighty two of these things. You work all off season
Speaker 1: and you never know going into a season if you're
Speaker 1: gonna be injured or not. Every opportunity to play this game.
Speaker 1: You know, most players I've talked to over the years
Speaker 1: have said, there's only so many of these chances you get.
Speaker 1: There's not that many opportunities. And every single day, whether
Speaker 1: it's at practice, whether it's in the weight room, whether
Speaker 1: it's in your meeting rooms or walking down the hallway,
Speaker 1: you are being evaluated, constantly being evaluated. Uh. You know,
Speaker 1: there's the people here that everybody knows. You don't even
Speaker 1: know that. You don't exactly know what they do, what
Speaker 1: their job title is, you don't exactly know why they're
Speaker 1: in the building, but you know that they're watching you.
Speaker 1: And those are the people who evaluate their personnel people
Speaker 1: and they want to see, hey, does this person really
Speaker 1: love the game? Is this person locked in? Or has
Speaker 1: this person checked out? And um, you know that's just
Speaker 1: the they call the NFL, not for long. They say
Speaker 1: that it stands for not for long, because there are
Speaker 1: only a limited number of opportunities to strap on that helmet,
Speaker 1: to put on a jersey, and to go out there
Speaker 1: and play. And so each of these games is vital, Uh,
Speaker 1: not only to uh your potential to continue your career,
Speaker 1: but for your legacy as well. Who do you want
Speaker 1: to be remembered as? What kind of player were you
Speaker 1: when tough times came? Did you fold? Or did you
Speaker 1: rise up? And did you did you? Were you always
Speaker 1: a fierce competitor in any situation on the field. Final
Speaker 1: couple questions here for you guys, um quarterback situation this week?
Speaker 1: Garnments you're starting? How's Nick doing? I know you're close
Speaker 1: with him? And what do you expect from Gardner this week?
Speaker 1: First time back in or back in a starting role?
Speaker 1: You know, the first thing I would say is I
Speaker 1: expect Garner just to go out there and and be himself. Uh,
Speaker 1: don't put telling him not to put too much pressure
Speaker 1: on himself. Be yourself, go out there, prepare uh, and
Speaker 1: with that preparation, have the confidence to go out there
Speaker 1: and play your game. Uh. Nick's doing all right? Uh?
Speaker 1: You know you had you know, it's a rough, rough
Speaker 1: situation to be in, and and not necessarily the decision
Speaker 1: to to be moved around. Um. But you know, it's
Speaker 1: never fun to be boot off the field. Uh, it's
Speaker 1: never fun to be bootoff field. Uh. You know, people
Speaker 1: see your performance or what you do on the field,
Speaker 1: they don't see the hours of preparation, and they don't
Speaker 1: see the things that your family go through, the sacrifices
Speaker 1: that you make for the city. And when that's the
Speaker 1: reception that you get, it's tough. It's rough. And so
Speaker 1: whenever I talk to people about that, I just try
Speaker 1: to encourage him to, Hey, let's be better. You know,
Speaker 1: let's just be better and let's not do that if
Speaker 1: we're disappointed, let's be disappointed. But we can show it
Speaker 1: in different ways. Um. But you know, he's he's he's
Speaker 1: doing well, um, all things considered, and he's prepared to
Speaker 1: do whatever it takes to help his team succeed. Uh.
Speaker 1: You know it's I say this time and time again,
Speaker 1: he's better man than me. Uh. You know the way
Speaker 1: that he handles stuff, um, because you know, there's there's
Speaker 1: any number of ways that you can respond to it,
Speaker 1: but he's he's choosing to be, uh, the leader, and
Speaker 1: he's choosing to be consistent, and he's choosing to be
Speaker 1: there for his teammates and to try to help us
Speaker 1: get that win defensively. Abory Um, you know the four
Speaker 1: games left and this one this week against a guy
Speaker 1: who has been the Jags a lot over the years,
Speaker 1: and Philip Rivers here he comes again. And you know,
Speaker 1: the numbers the last few weeks aren't great for him,
Speaker 1: but he's still Philip Rivers sixteen years in the league.
Speaker 1: That's a lot of experience on the other side of
Speaker 1: you guys this week. Yeah, I mean, he's just an old,
Speaker 1: wily veteran. I mean, he's gonna find a way to
Speaker 1: beat you. I mean we played him over a couple
Speaker 1: of years, uh, you know, playing still the similar defense.
Speaker 1: I mean, he's gonna go back in his old notebook
Speaker 1: and just check things off and stuff like that. But
Speaker 1: I feel like for us, we just got to come back,
Speaker 1: come out defensively, and we're gonna have to make him
Speaker 1: one dimensional. I mean, biggest thing. You know, it's no
Speaker 1: secret we gotta stopped to run. They have two great
Speaker 1: running backs and two great wide receivers and the great quarterbacks.
Speaker 1: I mean, we gotta find somewhere to win to help
Speaker 1: us out in the game where we can game planet
Speaker 1: better for us to make plays. So I mean we're
Speaker 1: gonna have to find a way to you know, take
Speaker 1: someone out of the game and the wide receivers are
Speaker 1: running backs. Hopefully both were having a great day then,
Speaker 1: but I mean that's really is gonna come down to,
Speaker 1: you know, take one out. Then we played chess game
Speaker 1: with him. Now, we'd be remiss, especially with these two,
Speaker 1: if we didn't give you a chance to ask every something.
Speaker 1: And he is the co host. Yeah, you'll get your
Speaker 1: opportunity as well. Fear not, you already have a good question.
Speaker 1: Go ahead, go ahead, every first. I don't know how
Speaker 1: many people know this, fans when not, But Chris was
Speaker 1: in school, he was big into film when you made
Speaker 1: like the Star Wars and stuff like, Okay, I thought
Speaker 1: you were going to go in a different direction. Right,
Speaker 1: that's a locker room joke. Gone, that's a locker room one.
Speaker 1: You know what we're talking about. Um, So you know
Speaker 1: in college, Chris was big in the film and I
Speaker 1: see you got your whole ocean things. I was one
Speaker 1: of you gonna make like a movie or film about
Speaker 1: the ocean and like what's down there? You know, I've
Speaker 1: thought about it. I've thought about it. This is about time.
Speaker 1: I had like a pattern, um, and every year I
Speaker 1: tried to do something, I either try to shoot something
Speaker 1: in the off season or the next offseason. I like
Speaker 1: to do like a job shadow or like a director shadow.
Speaker 1: And so this past offseason I did a shadow, uh
Speaker 1: for a week on Modern Family, And so this offseason
Speaker 1: would be the offseason that I write and shoot something.
Speaker 1: And so I've been toying around with different ideas of
Speaker 1: things to shoot, and it has crossed my mind to
Speaker 1: do something involving the beach and involving the ocean. It's
Speaker 1: just you know, that's just the production costs factoring some
Speaker 1: of that stuff, and could be could be a little high.
Speaker 1: But you know, at this point, I don't know. I
Speaker 1: don't know. I could um, I could think of a
Speaker 1: couple of things, but I haven't really quite had an
Speaker 1: idea that's really like that's made me go, oh, this
Speaker 1: is it, this is it. And so we'll see eventually,
Speaker 1: eventually it will be something having to do with the
Speaker 1: ocean and something having to do with the sea. You
Speaker 1: could produce the defensive line dinner thing. Oh yeah, that
Speaker 1: guy set down real quick stuff happening. It was good
Speaker 1: at Smooth Totals. It was too and he bleeps and
Speaker 1: he couldn't use the video so it was a little
Speaker 1: bit too It's a little bit too natural. It happens. Now,
Speaker 1: what do you got for Avery? Um? You know, I
Speaker 1: I gotta I gotta ask you a question and and
Speaker 1: it it really has to do with that jacket that
Speaker 1: you're wearing right there. You know, as one non biased,
Speaker 1: you know, media representative and reporter, I would love to
Speaker 1: know your thoughts on Georgia going into this weekend. You know,
Speaker 1: I I have no no shoe in the game at all.
Speaker 1: I really don't care who wins. But who do you
Speaker 1: have in that game? And what kind of game do
Speaker 1: you think it's gonna be? Well, first of all, Chris,
Speaker 1: I don't want to thank you. I just love how
Speaker 1: the media has questions about Georgia. They come to me,
Speaker 1: so you know, you know me, I love my school.
Speaker 1: I mean to go off the path a little bit, Chris,
Speaker 1: I just want to thank you for doing a great
Speaker 1: job getting here and also Terry doing his double in
Speaker 1: the press squad and stay with the squad, so we
Speaker 1: keep our numbers high. Yeah, because you know, usually SEC
Speaker 1: championship comes by it's just me, exactly me versus a
Speaker 1: gang of Bama people. You know, I'm not gonna mention
Speaker 1: other schools. Everyone in there talks trash. But it's always
Speaker 1: past three years been my school and the SC championship.
Speaker 1: So I'm just happy to celebrate with somebody. But now
Speaker 1: that's where the game. Girls, I'm very confident in us.
Speaker 1: Feel like we can run the ball. You know, we've
Speaker 1: got a little wide receiver problem, but like I said,
Speaker 1: little as two guys. I mean there's a lot of
Speaker 1: wide receivers on there. And I know this is where
Speaker 1: the great Chris Connelly came from, So I'm not worried.
Speaker 1: I've seen L s U games and I've seen our defense,
Speaker 1: and you know, our defense is way better than Badl's defense.
Speaker 1: Um so yeah, I mean we haven't given up twenty
Speaker 1: points probably like once or twice maybe, and there was
Speaker 1: one it's it's us in one other school. I think
Speaker 1: we gave them like what one Russian touchdown? That was
Speaker 1: the boat next to Auburn quarterback shout the boat knicks.
Speaker 1: You know, cool story, I know, Bo's granddaddy was my
Speaker 1: high school coach, So salth to both thank you for that,
Speaker 1: dub Um. So what I think. I think it's gonna
Speaker 1: be a good game. I think we're gonna win by
Speaker 1: like seven, you know. I feel like it's gonna be
Speaker 1: a good defensive matchup and then the Georgia muscles just
Speaker 1: gonna show the difference. We're gonna run over some people,
Speaker 1: We're gonna stop some plays, and we're gonna, you know,
Speaker 1: I guess, take out this higman leading quarterback who lost
Speaker 1: his job to our backup, who lost his job to
Speaker 1: our starter. So it all comes full circle. I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm just glad that George always has a preath of
Speaker 1: of quarterbacks to give out. We gave l s U
Speaker 1: a quarterback one time that didn't work out. Was that
Speaker 1: Man Burger. Who else we gave a quarterback. We gave quarterback.
Speaker 1: They almost got a title. I mean, hopefully doesn't go
Speaker 1: to well for Ohiwse State, and we just stay good
Speaker 1: state of quarterback man. We're just we're just giving him out.
Speaker 1: And I always stay next to Ja Jake Farm. Now
Speaker 1: he's from one of Robin's Georgia, one of rocks, and
Speaker 1: what will you be doing Saturday J J apparently watching that?
Speaker 1: Who you want to win? I mean, I guess you
Speaker 1: probably want, don't really, I don't have a dog hunt that.
Speaker 1: It's not weird. It's weird to not have them involved. Yeah,
Speaker 1: just so I don't have to hear this anymore. L
Speaker 1: s U is free touchdowns? Oh man, that's a hate
Speaker 1: for Georgia's real. I never understood why people are always
Speaker 1: so against us and then against I mean, I'm just
Speaker 1: saying I never heard this talk about L s U
Speaker 1: or Florida. I just don't think Georgia can score with
Speaker 1: L s U. I know your defense is good, I
Speaker 1: just don't think it would score well. I mean that's
Speaker 1: why they're not gonna score that much. Okay, well soon,
Speaker 1: I mean what they win versus who? I don't know.
Speaker 1: We're going down long past. Oh, I know the roads
Speaker 1: getting long. What's the bet with for Nette this week?
Speaker 1: I currently don't have a bet with him yet. I
Speaker 1: got one with DJ. I got one with DJ. I'll
Speaker 1: talk to Leonry probably tomorrow and do that. But I'm
Speaker 1: always I'm always down to L I'm always down to
Speaker 1: wrap my team. You feel me, even if we're having
Speaker 1: it down here. I always I don't know. I've seen
Speaker 1: his bets this week and they're not the same as mail.
Speaker 1: He might be a little free, but you will not
Speaker 1: wear other teams. I will not wear other teams. I
Speaker 1: mean those schools missed their chance when I was coming
Speaker 1: to high school, didn't chose. I'm not gonna put it
Speaker 1: on now. Good. I will never put a guy in
Speaker 1: a Georgia jersey. I mean, I'll never just spent my
Speaker 1: school like that. Wow. You know we've had a lot
Speaker 1: of good guests this year, Chris, but this is another one. Man,
Speaker 1: this is another guest you realize you can's from. You
