1 00:00:01,200 --> 00:00:05,440 Speaker 1: Celebrating twenty five years of Jaguars football. He's going down 2 00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:09,200 Speaker 1: at the one yard line. Maurice Drew was in for 3 00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:11,080 Speaker 1: his second touchdown of the ball game, and he can 4 00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:18,560 Speaker 1: meet Jaffuars. Did you Jackar Jaguarris? Did you know Jaguars 5 00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 1: Drive Time? Ryan Sex steps to John O shoves it. Actually, 6 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:31,040 Speaker 1: Jaguarris Drive Time starts right now. Good morning, and welcome 7 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:34,519 Speaker 1: Jaguary's Drive Time. Friday morning. Jaguar is getting ready to 8 00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:38,560 Speaker 1: take on the Atlanta Falcons in Atlanta. Team heading there tomorrow. 9 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:42,559 Speaker 1: A beautiful day in Jacksonville, a bit warmer. Not that 10 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:45,839 Speaker 1: I'm for that or anything. I'm just saying, Solla's how 11 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 1: are we doing? I'm lovely because it's Friday and I 12 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 1: love Friday's. It sounds like, yeah, I'm excited. I am 13 00:00:56,720 --> 00:01:02,600 Speaker 1: Rosalie optimistic about life today. Ryan is a specific reason. 14 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:06,200 Speaker 1: It's just it's really how I am as as a 15 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:08,520 Speaker 1: default mode. So I think we should just get I 16 00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:10,960 Speaker 1: think it's because of your puppy mug that you've had 17 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 1: all week. It's putting you in a better mood. Happy, 18 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:18,840 Speaker 1: happy Polidays. All right, let's remember that and let's get 19 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 1: into big things Shally, Big Thing one is Doug. It 20 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:24,679 Speaker 1: is truly his ship to sail. Now. Can you repeat 21 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 1: the end of the season success he had against the 22 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 1: Titans and the Colts when he took over in two 23 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:33,000 Speaker 1: thousand sixteen. So the next two games solidify his job 24 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 1: in whether it be a win or a loss. Big 25 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 1: Things to the locker room. The reaction was strong. Tom 26 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 1: Coplam being let go changes very little for us going forward. 27 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:46,399 Speaker 1: We must focus on Atlanta. They didn't make it very clear, however, 28 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:48,920 Speaker 1: that they want coach Marown and the entire coaching staff 29 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 1: to stay from Calais Campbell, Lenard for Nett, d J. 30 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 1: Hayden to more. All those guys were very strong saying 31 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 1: I got to focus on Atlanta and we like our coaches. 32 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 1: That speaks volumes about this team. Big Thing three Atlanta. 33 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: They're playing well recently after starting the season one in 34 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 1: seventh and out of the same record as the Jaguars. 35 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 1: Julio Jones might be the toughest matchup in the NFL, 36 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,079 Speaker 1: but there are still some reasons to believe the Jaguars 37 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: could get it done in Atlanta. And I now asked 38 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 1: these two guys, what are those reasons? Well, Uh, their 39 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 1: offensive line has not played all that well. Matt Ryan 40 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 1: has been under pressure a lot, and that's obviously a strength. UM. 41 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:28,919 Speaker 1: DeVonta Freeman two years ago was one of the better 42 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,839 Speaker 1: backs in the league and he's struggling. Is averaging three 43 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,120 Speaker 1: point six per carry. So they're not running it very well, 44 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 1: they're not protecting very well. That would seem to set 45 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 1: up the Jaguars defense. Um. You know. The flip side 46 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: is their defense has gotten some pressure in recent weeks, 47 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:47,639 Speaker 1: but they have twenty four sacks, near the bottom of 48 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:50,359 Speaker 1: the league. So you like your opportunities to be able 49 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 1: to throw the ball. DJ Charik is back, UM, But 50 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 1: I think the most important thing is there there's a 51 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,079 Speaker 1: surge in that locker room after the events of the 52 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,240 Speaker 1: last two days. There is there was already a good feeling, 53 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 1: some optimism. There was obviously a lot of cold water 54 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,919 Speaker 1: on Monday when the NFL p A came out, but shots, 55 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: decisive action and the fact that it's Doug Morone who 56 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: is here, UM gives him a chance. I think this 57 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,640 Speaker 1: team believes and I know that that sounds like something 58 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: you hear all the time about a team that's losing 59 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 1: at the end of the season, but I think they 60 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:26,119 Speaker 1: believe in themselves this week. Yeah, I think the win 61 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,799 Speaker 1: last week as much as anything has affected this, I'm 62 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 1: not I'm not going to discount the news about Tom. 63 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: But as much as Tom sort of affected things with 64 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: the fines, I never got the feeling that when you 65 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 1: were in the locker room, when they were talking as 66 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 1: a team, you already go out and play. I always 67 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 1: thought it was more about Doug, and I think there 68 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: was a rejuvenation when they won last week and a 69 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 1: feeling of you know, this is what it's supposed to 70 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 1: feel like, this what's it's supposed to do. I just 71 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 1: think the job that they've done keeping it together even 72 00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: through that losing streak. I thought it turned at halftime 73 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 1: last week. More than anything. There was no reason to 74 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 1: think that the events that happened in the second half 75 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 1: we're going to happen, except that they didn't believe that 76 00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 1: they weren't going to happen. UM, So I expect him 77 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 1: to play hard and well on Sunday. Uh. The Falcons 78 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 1: defense is playing really well lately, nineteen points a game. 79 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 1: To me, the only question is can the Jaguars be 80 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 1: efficient early in the game offensively can they score touchdowns 81 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:31,479 Speaker 1: instead of field goals? And can they avoid this three 82 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 1: points start? It's been their pattern for or the three 83 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 1: point first half have been the pattern since what jets. 84 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,360 Speaker 1: Well he had avoid that last three starts. Yeah, I 85 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:44,479 Speaker 1: have produced a field goal in each of the first half. Yeah, 86 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,280 Speaker 1: let's go back real quick. And that's what he's got 87 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 1: to get away from it. Someth You said you didn't 88 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 1: think Tom impacted it. Maybe not by name, Tom impacted 89 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 1: it by the fact that Doug now is clearly at 90 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 1: the helm right and well, I just think did a 91 00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 1: good job through it. Well he did, And I think 92 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 1: that he team sees him now as being the guy 93 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,040 Speaker 1: with both hands on the wheel. But because before if 94 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 1: Tom was finding people that Tom had a hand on 95 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: right and now Doug has both hands on the wheel. 96 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 1: And I think that his team, I said, we heard 97 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: it yesterday that this team likes Doug a lot, and 98 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: I think that we'll see a lift for them playing 99 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 1: for him. I think in the last couple of weeks, 100 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,359 Speaker 1: as things were sliding downhill, they're playing for themselves for 101 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: one another. Now they're playing for him. Plus it helps 102 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 1: that he said it wasn't on Monday or Tuesday, whatever 103 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 1: day he spoke, No Tuesday where he said, Um, I'm 104 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,280 Speaker 1: trying to protect players and coaches. I'm trying to save jobs. 105 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:46,159 Speaker 1: There has been a solidifying of the group that's here 106 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:49,720 Speaker 1: in recent days, even though it felt fractured on Monday. Yeah, 107 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:51,720 Speaker 1: and we were talking on the practice field yesterday. So 108 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: normally when this happens this record, you hear coaches saying, 109 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 1: got to focus on the next game, focusing on Sunday. 110 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 1: For Doug Moron to be honest and say under stand 111 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 1: that I get it. I'm trying to save jobs. You 112 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 1: don't normally hear coaches say that. No, Well, it made 113 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,920 Speaker 1: himself vulnerable, you know what I mean. I mean football 114 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 1: coaches generally don't like to be vulnerable. They like to 115 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:13,719 Speaker 1: be tough, hardened exterior. We got this um and what 116 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: he said was he acknowledged we're all sitting here worried 117 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 1: about our jobs, and so the only thing we can 118 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,720 Speaker 1: do is go work for them, and I am trying 119 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,479 Speaker 1: to protect He put it on his shoulders. It was 120 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:29,719 Speaker 1: refreshingly transparent. Were you guys surprised? I wasn't exactly, but 121 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: I was kind of surprised about the forwardness of all 122 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 1: the players in the locker room yesterday saying it wanted 123 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: to keep the entire coaching staff here. I would expect 124 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 1: them to say that, but for the strong passionate answers 125 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:43,600 Speaker 1: we god, I don't think I was expecting that. Well. 126 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 1: Guys have sort of expressed that a little bit before, 127 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 1: especially Leonard Fournett all season when he's been asked about Doug, 128 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 1: especially early in the season when the theme was sort 129 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 1: of resiliency for a while when there were four and four. Uh. 130 00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:00,719 Speaker 1: For Nett, who was if not sus bended by Doug 131 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 1: as a rookie, Uh, sat down for a game. You 132 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 1: know a Doug was the one who made that call. Uh. 133 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: Doug has disciplined Leonard before, and Leonard has been very 134 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 1: up front this year. He said the other day, I 135 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 1: love coach Doug. The Doug does a nice job through 136 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 1: that of balancing. He talked about it. It was Wednesay 137 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 1: or Thursday. He was a player. He knows that he's 138 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 1: on management side a little bit at times, because you've 139 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 1: got to walk that line as a coach um, and 140 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 1: he does a nice job of I think being the 141 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: guy that they need to depend on and be able 142 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 1: to go to at times when things are getting weird. Yeah, 143 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 1: I agree with that. But also this locker room said 144 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 1: with the Tom Coughlin news that really nothing really changes 145 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 1: much for us, and Calais Kimbell was saying it's not 146 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 1: day to day. Yeah, Calais Kimbell saying, yes, he's on 147 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: the practice field, but it's not like he is with 148 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 1: us every single step of the way like head coach. 149 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 1: But there's clarity, right. So when Tom came back and 150 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 1: Tom was the executive vice president, he was a football coach. 151 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 1: He was never a GM. So the question that we 152 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 1: asked him was what's your role? And at times he 153 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: couldn't even answer it because he wasn't quite sure. This 154 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 1: provides clarity. Doug is the coach. If there is a problem, 155 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 1: a fine, Doug will handle it. It's not as if 156 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 1: Doug says, hey, all right, we're clear, and then you 157 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 1: come in and say, uh, you got a five dollar fine. 158 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 1: There's none of that a claret And we've talked about 159 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 1: this a lot. Tony Dungee always wanted to make things 160 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 1: clear for his players, simple routine. This creates for all 161 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: of these guys a clarity that allows them to understand 162 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 1: exactly where they stand because they don't have to worry. 163 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 1: I'm okay with you, but what about the guy down 164 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 1: the hall? They only have to worry about Doug That that, 165 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 1: in and of itself is day to day better for 166 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 1: the players.

Coach, 206 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 1: you talked a little bit earlier in the week about 207 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: Calais Campbell what he means to this team as a 208 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: player a person. Five Pro bowls in your career, that's 209 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: quite the accomplishment it is. I mean, you talk about 210 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:48,559 Speaker 1: the ultimate professional. And I said, you know, probably one 211 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 1: of the more difficult things that that I had to 212 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 1: do is, you know, you want to get up there 213 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 1: and you want to do a good job. You know 214 00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: for the player. You want people that maybe don't know 215 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 1: him that well to try to give him an insight 216 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 1: to the type of person he is. And you know, 217 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 1: people talk about the effect of the team. I look 218 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 1: at at it. He's such a great person. It's an 219 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 1: effect of of on the organization, on the community, here. Um, 220 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:25,240 Speaker 1: I've never probably been around a more positive, focused, um, 221 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 1: great pro and I've been around a lot of great players. 222 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 1: But he, you know, he's always gonna go you know, 223 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:34,200 Speaker 1: in my mind, he'll always go down with me. Is 224 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,839 Speaker 1: is probably being you know, the top or one of 225 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 1: the top two. You know, you know, Drew Brees was 226 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: awesome and people like that and Kevin Y, But I don't. 227 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 1: I think what's difficult is trying to find the words, 228 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying to describe a guy that 229 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 1: people are like, you know, because you people like, oh, 230 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 1: this coach he's full of crap. It's not it's because 231 00:12:56,679 --> 00:13:00,319 Speaker 1: he comes off. He's a millionaire, superstar, enorm as pro 232 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 1: football player, and yet he's decidedly normal. He the way 233 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: that he talks to people when he's just standing there. Um, 234 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:08,319 Speaker 1: he acts as if every person is important. I can 235 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 1: take you for sure. In twenty five years, I don't 236 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:12,800 Speaker 1: know of another player, with all the things he has 237 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,959 Speaker 1: that's as normal as he is. Yeah, I agree, so, 238 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 1: and and it's well deserved. I mean, he's a he's 239 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 1: a heck of a football player. But I say, you know, 240 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 1: more importantly, he's just a better person. Yeah, and you've 241 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 1: got to have the traits he has in terms of preparation. 242 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 1: You've talked a lot. It sounds like he's on a 243 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 1: level with Kevin, the guys that you've been around, Curtis Martin, 244 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:39,200 Speaker 1: who just the professionalism of preparation. He may be on 245 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 1: your rushman. Sure, I think that when you know, I 246 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 1: look around and I've had players that have played, you know, 247 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 1: over twelve or thirteen years in the league, and they're 248 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 1: all different positions, different types of guys, different backgrounds. But 249 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 1: the one thing I'll say it is is is there's 250 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 1: the one common trait is you know, how they take 251 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 1: care of themselves. And I remember my first year in 252 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 1: the league in two thousand and two as a coach, Um, 253 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 1: we played our our last game, we lost a playoff game. 254 00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 1: Um I think it was in Oakland, and we came 255 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 1: back and you know, you're normally when you come back 256 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 1: on that Monday, you exit the players out, then the 257 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 1: coaches right up, evaluations, handed into management, and the coaches 258 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 1: have pretty much those next couple of days and that 259 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:28,520 Speaker 1: weekend off and then they come back in on Monday 260 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 1: and the players usually they're done until at that time. 261 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 1: I think it was like March dark, right, It's like 262 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 1: you were no one's in the building, right. But then 263 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 1: I remember going in on that Monday and Curtis Martin 264 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:47,440 Speaker 1: and Kevin Mawai are in the weight room. I was like, 265 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 1: what what are you guys doing. They're like, Coach, we're 266 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 1: not And they weren't handling a lot of heavy weight 267 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 1: or anything, but they're like, look, we just get started 268 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 1: right away, and we don't. We just come in, we 269 00:14:57,840 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 1: do a little of this, a little of that, and 270 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 1: just get our bodies to start coming back. And you know, 271 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 1: Jim bo Elliott was like that, a lot of guys 272 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 1: that have played a long time and they know what 273 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 1: it takes and the amount of dedication, uh, for the longevity. 274 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 1: You know, to be able to put now. You need 275 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 1: the talent obviously, but if you don't have that type 276 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 1: of work ethic and taking care of your body, you're 277 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: not gonna last in this leak. Yeah. Jerry Rice used 278 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 1: to say, you get your last five or six years 279 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 1: by what you do in your first five or six years. 280 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 1: Good points, good point. Hey, does this feel at all 281 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:32,720 Speaker 1: like two thousand sixteen in the end of the season 282 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: to you? You know, when you took over as the 283 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 1: as the inter of coach. I know it's not apples 284 00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 1: to apples, but um, just talking to players yesterday, there 285 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 1: was an energy in the locker room. It was almost 286 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 1: as if, you know, there's two games left and they're 287 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 1: treating them as their playoff rount or an audition or 288 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 1: however you want to put it. But there just seems 289 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 1: to be a field. We got through the stuff earlier 290 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 1: in the week, and now there seems to be a 291 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 1: great focus and purpose about this game. Well, you know, 292 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 1: I addressed to players obviously just before I come in, 293 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,360 Speaker 1: you know, to this meeting, and you know, one of 294 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 1: the things I wanted to make sure that I spoke 295 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 1: to the players about was, you know, the appreciation that 296 00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 1: I have for the coaches and the players on his team. 297 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 1: We all understand it's a disappointing season, okay, we we 298 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 1: were all part of that. No one's clear of you know, 299 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 1: of that, of that accountability. But when you look back, 300 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 1: starting from O. T A. S too now, it's there's 301 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:37,280 Speaker 1: been a lot of things that have gone on, a 302 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 1: lot of distractions, a lot of things that have pulled 303 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 1: that potentially, I should say, can pull this team apart. 304 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 1: Or separate them, um, but the consistency of them staying together, 305 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:56,040 Speaker 1: them working hard preparing each week, you know, is something 306 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 1: that I wanted to make sure I acknowledge to them. Uh. 307 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 1: Grant at our performances on Sunday have not been good enough, 308 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:07,359 Speaker 1: but at the same time, each one of us have struggled, 309 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:10,200 Speaker 1: whether it's myself all the way down to anyone that's 310 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 1: in that team meeting room, of these things from the 311 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 1: outside that we all know that it's it's very easy 312 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:20,399 Speaker 1: for people to say stay focused, but all of us 313 00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 1: have a different level of what's gonna pull us away 314 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:25,919 Speaker 1: from that focus. So, you know, the one thing that 315 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 1: I told the team is that even though our performance 316 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 1: hasn't been good and we understand that, I appreciate the resiliency, 317 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 1: and like you said, you know the way they've they've 318 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:40,359 Speaker 1: come approached this and and come about it now. Is 319 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 1: it is it been successful for us on Sunday? Absolutely not, 320 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 1: But during the week at least you're working towards a 321 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 1: successful Sunday. You've seen a lot of players over year career. Uh, 322 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 1: where does Julio Jones rank in terms of a guy 323 00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 1: who just jumps out when you watch and try to pay. 324 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 1: I mean, I I go back to you know, because 325 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,159 Speaker 1: you you look at you know, the first thing that 326 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 1: jumps out of your size. So when I when I 327 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 1: think about size, and I'll date myself here, I think 328 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 1: like Harold Carmichael, you know, when he was with the Eagles, 329 00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,320 Speaker 1: who's actually a rains guy, a local guy, and he's 330 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 1: on the centennial list for Hall of Fame candidates. Yeah, 331 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 1: you know he was. He's a guy that jumps out. Um. 332 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 1: I think the next guy for me would be Calvin Johnson, 333 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 1: you know for Detroit and another big guy and can run, 334 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 1: you know, and Julio is a big guy that that 335 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:35,160 Speaker 1: can run. And so when I when I look at him, 336 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,240 Speaker 1: and there's a lot of great players and a lot 337 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:39,919 Speaker 1: of great wide receivers and we've seen it, but you know, 338 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,920 Speaker 1: I really think he's someone that's unique in a way 339 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 1: of having all those traits and you know, you know, 340 00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 1: it's arguably you could say who's who's better, No one's better. 341 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 1: I'm not going to get into that, but I think 342 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 1: he'll go down as you know, one of those great receivers. 343 00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 1: And you know, whether it's you know, people talk about Jerry, 344 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,160 Speaker 1: the people talk about Steve Smith, you know, I mean 345 00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:05,199 Speaker 1: all those guys as we go down, you know, Michael Irvin, 346 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: things of that nature, because um, he's done it for 347 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 1: a long time. He's done it at a very consistent level, 348 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 1: and every time he's on that field, Um, he's productive. 349 00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:16,639 Speaker 1: He's a little off topic, and I apologize it's not 350 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 1: Jaguars related, but at Drew's Night the other night you 351 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:23,400 Speaker 1: probably didn't watch it, but moves into some more all 352 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:28,680 Speaker 1: time list. I know you're close with him, special still 353 00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:32,159 Speaker 1: to watch him what he's doing for you, it is. 354 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 1: I mean, he's one of those guys that you know, 355 00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:36,680 Speaker 1: I think when you're around kind of like we talked 356 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:40,640 Speaker 1: about a little bit with Calais. Um, they're just they're 357 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:44,400 Speaker 1: just special. And it's not just because of they can 358 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,960 Speaker 1: throw with football or play defensive, you know, and it's 359 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 1: not it's not that it's they're special because of the 360 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 1: effect that they have on on the people around them. 361 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 1: They're you know, they're special because of you know, they're 362 00:19:56,080 --> 00:20:00,160 Speaker 1: competitive nature. Everyone's competitive, but it seems like the these 363 00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 1: types of players have it at a there's a different level. 364 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:06,960 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. You know of it and um, 365 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 1: you know I guess he was what twenty nine for 366 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:12,159 Speaker 1: thirty and he missed he missed a wide route and 367 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 1: I heard him say, I can't believe I missed it. 368 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,679 Speaker 1: I didn't set my feet, that's true, you know, and 369 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 1: I know that. Um, I know my wife told me 370 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: that that. She texted I guess Brittany while the game 371 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 1: was going on. She was watching it, and uh, Brittany 372 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:29,360 Speaker 1: said something to effective, Well, if you do something long enough, 373 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:30,879 Speaker 1: you know, we would hope that you can be at 374 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,239 Speaker 1: least good at something. You know what I mean. It was, 375 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,120 Speaker 1: you know, it was one of those comments. But you know, yeah, 376 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,879 Speaker 1: we I am close with him, and um, you know 377 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,640 Speaker 1: I always tell people we used to actually keep tracked 378 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,920 Speaker 1: when I was in New Orleans. There were four practices 379 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 1: and I want you to think about this, where the 380 00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:55,160 Speaker 1: ball never touched the ground, meaning that from patent go 381 00:20:55,920 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 1: to routes versus air to seven on seven to our 382 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:04,600 Speaker 1: team periods to a running backs carrying a football, the 383 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 1: ball never touched the ground. And that was our goal, 384 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 1: you know, every time that we went out on the 385 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:12,640 Speaker 1: field that you know, the ball was never going to 386 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:14,480 Speaker 1: touch the ground. So for me to see a twenty 387 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:18,920 Speaker 1: nine for thirty. I mean, it's it's hard to it's 388 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 1: hard to be twenty nine for thirty on air, you know. 389 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:23,439 Speaker 1: And then now all of a sudden you go out 390 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 1: there and you're competing and you're doing it. So you know, special, 391 00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 1: special guy. You know, Um, Shawn's a special guy too. 392 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:32,879 Speaker 1: You know in Pete Carmichael that that thing I did. 393 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 1: I think there's a book coming out. Uh, someone's writing 394 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 1: a book because they had called me because I was 395 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 1: there in the beginning to give my comments. But you 396 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:45,159 Speaker 1: know about this relationship, you know, and I said, you 397 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 1: know from the beginning, Um, you can just tell that 398 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 1: it was special and you knew that great things could 399 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 1: could come from it. And at the time Drew was injured. 400 00:21:54,960 --> 00:22:00,040 Speaker 1: So um, it's just this connection, this vibe, this this 401 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 1: this this thing that go on where we're probably watching 402 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,679 Speaker 1: um and people might say whether it be Josh and 403 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,199 Speaker 1: Tom Brady or you know, and there's a lot of 404 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,000 Speaker 1: this that goes on, honestly, But you know, Sean Payton 405 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 1: Drew Brees will go down as one of the best 406 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 1: combinations to ever be in this league. And remember walking 407 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:21,160 Speaker 1: around the Senior Bowl when Pete Carmichael Senior, who worked 408 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 1: here was trying to get Pete Carmichel junior in the league, 409 00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 1: and he was, you know, so probably one of the 410 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 1: more underrated coaches, under the radar type guys. You know, 411 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 1: obviously we were very close and we're still close. And uh, 412 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 1: you know it just does an outstanding job and was 413 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 1: really a key figure because he was with He's been 414 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 1: with Drew the longest. You know, he was with him 415 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:45,680 Speaker 1: in San Diego when they were in San Diego, and um, 416 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,159 Speaker 1: you know came uh to New Orleans when Drew came 417 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 1: to New Orleans. Coach, I can tell you're getting in 418 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 1: the Christmas spirit are then? I don't know if I said, 419 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:00,959 Speaker 1: I'll take the cup with the snowflake side, but but 420 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:03,479 Speaker 1: please give me the snowflake cup this morning. What are 421 00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:07,440 Speaker 1: them around Christmas plans? Share? I'd say this, I think 422 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 1: you know, we all have challenges, especially in this profession 423 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 1: of this time of year. Um, you know, it's it's 424 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:16,920 Speaker 1: it's it's always difficult, you know, when you're not playing well. 425 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:22,639 Speaker 1: And I try to tell the younger coaches, Uh, don't 426 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 1: make some of the mistakes you know that I've made, 427 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 1: meaning that the job and the season and the disappointment 428 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:33,200 Speaker 1: and you know, the your job securities up in the air, 429 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 1: and everyone's kind of worried about it. You know, don't 430 00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 1: don't take that too the Christmas you know, spirit with 431 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,880 Speaker 1: your children. Don't let them see that whatever you have 432 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 1: to do, because you know, you would hope that when 433 00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 1: you get older in life and you and you talk 434 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 1: to your children, they can say, oh, we loved Christmas. 435 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 1: It was great. Not God, our Christmases were awful because 436 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,359 Speaker 1: you know, Dad didn't win enough games or Dad didn't 437 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 1: do that. And um, so I think, you know, when 438 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:04,879 Speaker 1: you have your young kids, you have to be very 439 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 1: conscious obviously when your kids are older like mine are 440 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:10,080 Speaker 1: now that they're aware of that, so you know how 441 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:13,159 Speaker 1: you act and how you talk to him. Um, I 442 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:15,920 Speaker 1: think it's things that I've learned, you know what I'm 443 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 1: saying over the years. And obviously everyone knows that my 444 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:21,439 Speaker 1: my wife's father was a Hall of Fame coach, and 445 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:25,600 Speaker 1: you know, Christmas was tough too, you know, and it's 446 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 1: just tough. But like I said, I'm not complaining about that. 447 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 1: It's a job that we've chosen. But these are the 448 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 1: things that go on in the lives of you know, 449 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:37,719 Speaker 1: a lot of us around the league.

He won't completely 494 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 1: shut him down or be on him all the time 495 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,920 Speaker 1: because that's not how you play Julio Jones. Even if 496 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:49,440 Speaker 1: he who shall not be named Jon Ramsey was still here, Um, 497 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:52,159 Speaker 1: it wouldn't be an a one on one all the 498 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 1: time with Julio Jones because that's how you do defense 499 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:59,159 Speaker 1: against guy like him. But it's uh, it might be 500 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:02,640 Speaker 1: the toughest channel lenge that he'll have in his career. 501 00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 1: I think he talked about that earlier this week. UM, 502 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 1: I don't know if Michael Thomas is the best wide 503 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:11,280 Speaker 1: receiver in the NFL right now or DeAndre Hopkins are 504 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,680 Speaker 1: all these guys, but I don't know that matchup wise 505 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:18,280 Speaker 1: with everything the receiver can do and just the pure 506 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 1: athletic ability. If there is a tougher matchup. It was 507 00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 1: like a power forward. He could have a body you 508 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 1: would get you out of the lane. And the ability 509 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 1: to and I shouldn't say this because I especially DeAndre 510 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:33,440 Speaker 1: does this too, but the ability to have perfect coverage 511 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,120 Speaker 1: and to still have a remarkable catch when you walk 512 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 1: out the field and say, well, you know anything good 513 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:42,800 Speaker 1: about that? And uh, I don't know that boy's playing 514 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 1: for his job at this point. I think there's I mean, 515 00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:50,280 Speaker 1: half million dollar hit. I mean next year. I don't 516 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 1: know that there's anything that you can do in the 517 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 1: last two games to change that dynamic. That's gonna be 518 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:59,040 Speaker 1: what it is. But you know, as the season ends. 519 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:02,120 Speaker 1: He's a guy who for three years has been such 520 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 1: an integral part of this and such a stand up 521 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 1: guy a lot, and I do believe this year he 522 00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 1: has done a remarkable job of shedding a difficult injury wise, 523 00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 1: last injury wise year last year, turning it into a 524 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 1: very good year. Not the year he had in seventeen. 525 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 1: I don't think he's that player anymore, but a remarkably 526 00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 1: good year, considering that he had to change roles mid season. 527 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 1: By the way, when the schedule came out in April, 528 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 1: I had circled this game because I was I was 529 00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:31,840 Speaker 1: looking forward to see Ramsey versus he got to see 530 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 1: he got to see him because he was with the Rams, 531 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 1: And I don't remember what he did. But that's a matchup. 532 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 1: I mean when you're talking about any of those three, 533 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 1: but especially Julio Jones because he's done it so consistently 534 00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:48,479 Speaker 1: over the year or so. Okay, Okay, you didn't think 535 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: too much about Hey, William might Okay, I kind of 536 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 1: gave it. Okay, okay, all right, you didn't remember who 537 00:29:56,760 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 1: you had? No I did after I was your mind. Sure, 538 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 1: I'll take Leonard for Nett. I saw the look in 539 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:06,360 Speaker 1: his eye yesterday. He will have a big day. Um, 540 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 1: you're talking about a player who has at times, he's 541 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 1: made some noise this year, but it's not been the 542 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:16,400 Speaker 1: kind of noise. It's not been consistent enough. He only 543 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 1: has a couple of touchdowns one rushing touchdown of the year. Um, 544 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 1: three touchdowns told, three rushing touchdowns pardoning. Um, it's just 545 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 1: been okay for him, even though he's got yards. So 546 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 1: I think he's due for a big game here. Um, 547 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:35,719 Speaker 1: he won't. I don't know what he won't do. I mean, 548 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:38,479 Speaker 1: I think he's he's seventy three seventy three catches, right, 549 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 1: I said I had it. He won't forgotten my guy, 550 00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 1: But I had it. He won't. You did. I don't 551 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 1: have it. He won't. Um, he might score a touchdown. 552 00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 1: He might. He might score a touchdown rushing and receiving 553 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 1: on Sunday. He's been the leading rusher. He is the 554 00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 1: leading receiver in terms of receptions, and he might combine 555 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:02,480 Speaker 1: both on on day in Atlanta. I say, won't, okay, 556 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 1: O give he won't be here. I'll do mine and 557 00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 1: I'll carry yours. Um, he won't complain about his circumstance 558 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 1: this year. And what I mean by that is I 559 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 1: got a better one. You started up. It's mine. Stop, 560 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 1: I got atter. He won't be on the he won't 561 00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:17,880 Speaker 1: be on the injury report at all this year. Uh, 562 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:21,200 Speaker 1: he's already there, right, He's on the injury report today. 563 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:26,040 Speaker 1: So unless that's gonna be a segment, you got a 564 00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 1: thing going on, it's gonna be say he won't be 565 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 1: on the injury all year, and that he and I 566 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 1: talked about that. You actually leaving the locker room. It's remarkable. 567 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:37,960 Speaker 1: Fred Taylor obviously never had a season where he wasn't 568 00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:42,040 Speaker 1: on the injury report one day, and neither did can 569 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:46,920 Speaker 1: you keep it down over there? And neither did Morris 570 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 1: Jones Drew. So for him to go through an entire 571 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 1: season without being on the injury report one day would 572 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,320 Speaker 1: be remarkable, and he hasn't. So there's my we won't. 573 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 1: It just took me a beaut and I think to 574 00:31:56,000 --> 00:32:00,080 Speaker 1: your point at the beginning, Um, he hasn't had a 575 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 1: year that he wanted to. But I would say out 576 00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 1: of all the players who that's true of this year, 577 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:08,920 Speaker 1: that's less his fault. If they hadn't gone in the tank. 578 00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 1: He defensively, he would have been a two thousand yards 579 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:13,560 Speaker 1: season from right. So it could have been he will 580 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:15,880 Speaker 1: he won't. He might he would have because he would 581 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:18,040 Speaker 1: have had a huge year and he would have done 582 00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 1: the things that you were talking about the beginning of 583 00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:21,960 Speaker 1: the season. Well, at one point he was on track 584 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 1: for the single season rushing record and the single season 585 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:30,600 Speaker 1: yards from scrimmage record, and then that's five game stretch 586 00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 1: where they just they couldn't stay with it. Run lack 587 00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 1: of opportunity more anything, more than anything, that was a 588 00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 1: nice group. He will, he won't moren't together. Now you're 589 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:40,960 Speaker 1: on your own. Great. I have no help, But he 590 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 1: will he won't. He might is Leon Jacobs. He will 591 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 1: continue to make an impact. Everyone's talking about Donald Payne 592 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 1: coming in playing well, but what about our guy Leon 593 00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:53,640 Speaker 1: Jacobs eight tackles last week against the Raiders, played well. 594 00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 1: Expecting another good week from him, He won't. We won't 595 00:32:57,280 --> 00:33:01,240 Speaker 1: compare him to Paul puzz lesnia consistently rate linebacker. But 596 00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 1: for a seventh round draft pick to come in and 597 00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 1: play how he has, he has absolutely exceeded expectations for that, 598 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 1: and he might make a game changing play. We've been 599 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:14,720 Speaker 1: meeting one of those lately. I'm thinking maybe a fumble recovery, 600 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 1: something like that. It would be nice. I I've been 601 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:21,240 Speaker 1: ringing the bell for this guy all week long because 602 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 1: he impressed me so much with the way he played. 603 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:25,800 Speaker 1: Uh do I see him as Paul puzz Doesn't he know? 604 00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:28,960 Speaker 1: Paul Puzzles name was top draft pick and a guy 605 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:32,000 Speaker 1: who who played for eleven years at a very high level. 606 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 1: And we're talking about a young player. But the way 607 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:36,520 Speaker 1: he ran all over the field, his best footballs in 608 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:38,640 Speaker 1: front of him, and when you start talking about all 609 00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:40,400 Speaker 1: the changes you've got to make on the defense and 610 00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:42,640 Speaker 1: how you've got to rebuild it. I don't want people 611 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:45,479 Speaker 1: to overlook forty eight there, because when you plug him in, 612 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 1: you're getting a guy who is fundamentally sound now here 613 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:53,560 Speaker 1: now appears to understand how they want him to play. Uh. 614 00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 1: If there's anybody who's more cut, I mean, the guy 615 00:33:56,440 --> 00:34:00,160 Speaker 1: is just he has built like a linebacker physically as 616 00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 1: the tools to play. I don't know what we're talking about. 617 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 1: A pro bowler, but not everyone on your defense has 618 00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 1: to be. I think he'll be a role player, a 619 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:09,480 Speaker 1: consistent player for years to come. He's a guy that 620 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:11,600 Speaker 1: you know in the off season when you're putting together 621 00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 1: the whiteboard depth chart, you know he's going to be 622 00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:17,439 Speaker 1: your strong side linebacker and you feel good about it. Uh, 623 00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:19,799 Speaker 1: that's not going to be the case when they first 624 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:22,359 Speaker 1: take down the names. This obvious and he was having 625 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:25,160 Speaker 1: a nice season and the foot injury and since he 626 00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:27,799 Speaker 1: slowed him down, he's finishing strong, which is good for 627 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:30,360 Speaker 1: a young player.

They grow up so fast. 660 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:31,240 Speaker 1: Remember there are plenty of other days of the week, 661 00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:35,560 Speaker 1: and Tide is America's number one detergent for all of them. 662 00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:48,200 Speaker 1: If it's laundry night, it's got to be tied. This 663 00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 1: weekend in Atlanta, the Jaguars will be wearing white on 664 00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 1: teal Unique and got quit this graphic saying I don't 665 00:36:56,080 --> 00:37:00,000 Speaker 1: quit because in his micdop that was his message. Don't 666 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 1: get it. That guy has to love the deal. Pants 667 00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:05,239 Speaker 1: love it. They pulled him out twice last year. They 668 00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:07,919 Speaker 1: lost both games, so they put it away. But maybe 669 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:10,840 Speaker 1: they'll change it up this year. Panos nothing to do 670 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:13,520 Speaker 1: with it. Yeah, they've lost plenty of white and black tube. 671 00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:16,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna wear teal pants too to join it on 672 00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:22,520 Speaker 1: the funny too. All right, let's pick one and pick it. 673 00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:26,640 Speaker 1: Heading into this NFL weekend, John Osier has Buffalo Bills 674 00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:29,399 Speaker 1: the New England Patriots. Yeah, and this is a tough 675 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:32,920 Speaker 1: one because it's tough to see changing of the guard 676 00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:35,919 Speaker 1: games coming before they happen. But this has a chance 677 00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:39,040 Speaker 1: to be one. The Bills probably should have beaten New 678 00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:42,239 Speaker 1: England early in the season when they played, uh say 679 00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:43,879 Speaker 1: should have? It could have gone either way. The Bills 680 00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:45,239 Speaker 1: had a chance to win at the end of the game. 681 00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:48,399 Speaker 1: The Bills feel like a team that's going to take 682 00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 1: the mantel away from the Patriots at some point as 683 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:55,360 Speaker 1: as Brady continues, or as continues begins whatever it is 684 00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:59,440 Speaker 1: as he declines, which eventually you do. Um, when did 685 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 1: your start? Oh it's it's it's begun. I'm knee deep, baby. Um, 686 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:10,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take I almost said the Bills, but I'm 687 00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:13,160 Speaker 1: gonna take the Patriots because so many people are thinking 688 00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:15,239 Speaker 1: that this is the change in the Guard moment, and 689 00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:18,440 Speaker 1: you just kind of have a feeling that somehow Brady 690 00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:21,200 Speaker 1: is gonna be doing the postgame interview talking after the 691 00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:24,840 Speaker 1: game given that little uh you know smile like he 692 00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:28,560 Speaker 1: knew it all that he does and we'll all hate 693 00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:34,520 Speaker 1: him again. So but I'll go with the Patriots, hedging 694 00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:37,720 Speaker 1: it as I want to do by saying that this 695 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 1: wouldn't be one that would be shocking if the Patriots 696 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:44,840 Speaker 1: go down in this Yeah, I like it. What was nice. 697 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:48,320 Speaker 1: I'll go with the Shaints of Titans, primarily because I 698 00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:51,000 Speaker 1: just couldn't get excited about the NFC East and that's 699 00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 1: big Eagles Dallas game. Um. But this one is interesting 700 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:56,160 Speaker 1: because the Shaints are obviously on a high and I 701 00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:57,719 Speaker 1: thought that the Titans were playing as well as any 702 00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:00,640 Speaker 1: team in football was last week, but four they played 703 00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 1: the Texans and they fell off. Not part of me 704 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:06,000 Speaker 1: picking the Titans, which I'm going to do, is hopeful 705 00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 1: because I really want to see a Titans Texans for 706 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:12,400 Speaker 1: all the marbles uh the next week, um, and in 707 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:15,160 Speaker 1: the final game. I just the Titans are this team 708 00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:16,759 Speaker 1: that you just want to count them out. They're not 709 00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,160 Speaker 1: good enough here, they're not good enough there. How can 710 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:22,080 Speaker 1: they possibly handle the Saints? And Drew Brees is playing 711 00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:24,480 Speaker 1: in all this is the perfect game for the Titans 712 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:29,400 Speaker 1: at home, playing the underdog card against a powerful Saints team. 713 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:30,960 Speaker 1: I just think that this is the kind of game 714 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:33,319 Speaker 1: that Titans win, and I want them to win because 715 00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 1: I want to watch that Texans Titans game the next 716 00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:40,279 Speaker 1: week at home too. I thought, look, I thought that 717 00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:42,600 Speaker 1: the Titans were gonna beat the Texans. I just it's funny. 718 00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:44,359 Speaker 1: The Texans are one of those teams that they just 719 00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:46,640 Speaker 1: they don't dazzle you and impress you, and then all 720 00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:48,279 Speaker 1: of a sudden you think, yeah, they're not that good, 721 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:50,640 Speaker 1: and then Watson comes out and lights people on. So 722 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:52,520 Speaker 1: in the Titans are the same way. The Titans are 723 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:56,120 Speaker 1: weird teams, as you you sort of alluded to. They'll 724 00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:59,520 Speaker 1: sort of go along and go three and one against 725 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:03,920 Speaker 1: an average schedule and then be a really good team 726 00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:05,759 Speaker 1: and then lose to a team they shouldn't lose to. 727 00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:09,960 Speaker 1: They strike me as being very capable in the playoffs 728 00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:12,960 Speaker 1: of the first round upset a couple of years ago, 729 00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:16,560 Speaker 1: and then probably not yet quite a super Bowl team. 730 00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:18,400 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't see him that way yet, But 731 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:20,520 Speaker 1: I think the Saints win this game because they're still playing. 732 00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:22,799 Speaker 1: I mean at the NFC is so good, it's going 733 00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:25,160 Speaker 1: to work against the Titans this week. You have to 734 00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:26,920 Speaker 1: keep winning in the NFC or else you can turn 735 00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:31,560 Speaker 1: in from one to four seed or three seed, because 736 00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:33,439 Speaker 1: the four seats gonna come out of you. Like I said, 737 00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:35,120 Speaker 1: I want the Titans to doing because I want to 738 00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:36,920 Speaker 1: watch a big game between the Titans and Texans the 739 00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:39,040 Speaker 1: next week. Fair enough, alright, my pick win, and pick 740 00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:42,200 Speaker 1: it is. Rams at forty nine is coming off a 741 00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:46,520 Speaker 1: big upset loss to the Falcons. Hey, look, we know him, 742 00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:51,360 Speaker 1: Thou that shall not be named Rams playoff chances on 743 00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:54,120 Speaker 1: life support, having similar problems as the Jags mid way 744 00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:57,239 Speaker 1: throughout the season. Couldn't stop the run last week two 745 00:40:57,280 --> 00:41:00,920 Speaker 1: hundred and sixty three yards. But forty Niners have a 746 00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:03,520 Speaker 1: heavy running game. But more so, I can't see San 747 00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:06,279 Speaker 1: Francisco losing two in a row, especially at home. So 748 00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:09,000 Speaker 1: give me the forty Niners. It's got good in this 749 00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:11,440 Speaker 1: picture Brian that his teammates are helping him off the 750 00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:16,799 Speaker 1: field with back end worried about that him. He looks healthy. 751 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:24,000 Speaker 1: Teammates Leven, you just take one joke, it just doesn't 752 00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:27,120 Speaker 1: go away. Good for him. Max is very excited to 753 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:32,400 Speaker 1: see him in Orlando. I'll bet, I bet I have 754 00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:36,319 Speaker 1: nothing to say, all right, Happy holidays a retweet. That's 755 00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:39,800 Speaker 1: our show.
