That's because we have big news 10 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:47,479 Speaker 1: to discuss. It is not going to be a boring show. 11 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 1: As most of you know. Last night, Tom Coughlin relieved 12 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:53,200 Speaker 1: of his duties of executive vice president of football Operations. 13 00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:57,280 Speaker 1: We have Shad Kant's comments here. Con writes that he 14 00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:59,400 Speaker 1: determined at the beginning of the season that making this 15 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:02,280 Speaker 1: decision would be best at the end of the season, 16 00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:04,839 Speaker 1: but with recent events, I decided it would be best 17 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:08,200 Speaker 1: to make this decision now. Doug Morone and Dave Cobble 18 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 1: will report directly to Shod Khan for the next two weeks. 19 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:15,160 Speaker 1: Shot has high expectations for the next two games and 20 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 1: season going forward, Guys, last night, what do you think initially? Well, well, actually, 21 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,960 Speaker 1: just to clarify, um, like you miss spoken said beginning 22 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:28,480 Speaker 1: content earlier this season at some point with the losing, 23 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 1: it made it sound like it was before the season 24 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 1: he decided. But Brian, I you know, I hate this 25 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 1: because you know, you and I have known Tom forever. 26 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 1: You know here, you're closer to than I am saying. 27 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,120 Speaker 1: I know you have more thoughts on that. Uh, but 28 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 1: it it just sometimes things start to feel inevitable, ah endings, 29 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 1: especially when they're unwanted or often messy. This one was. 30 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 1: But by the time it happened last night, it felt 31 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 1: like people were just waiting to see when it would happen, 32 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 1: not if well, you know, quietly people around him that 33 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: I have talked to, I believed he was going to 34 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: step away at the end of the season anyway. Um, 35 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,359 Speaker 1: you know, the losing probably contributed that to someone, But 36 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:13,800 Speaker 1: just that this situation here, it was ready for a change, 37 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 1: and I think he was ready for a change. Um. 38 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 1: And and now you're hearing those reports around the NFL 39 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 1: that con should have weighed because you can retire anyway. 40 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:25,639 Speaker 1: And I think that the semino point is he con 41 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 1: had to make a move to show good faith to 42 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,920 Speaker 1: the players Association and the players that this was not 43 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 1: the Jaguar way, that you weren't going to be a 44 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 1: place where players were going to be persecuted financially for 45 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: things that they weren't required to do. And so I 46 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 1: hate that it happened because I hate to see someone 47 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,359 Speaker 1: who's been so important to the franchise for so many 48 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 1: years and someone it's not your maine to the topic 49 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:55,959 Speaker 1: than he's a good man who does good things in 50 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 1: the community and has been vilified the last couple of days. 51 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 1: The intense with him, as you know, we're always top 52 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,799 Speaker 1: end to be the best possible team. You could be 53 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 1: out right or wrong. That was his motivation. Go ahead. 54 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Well, but where we are right now is 55 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 1: it reached critical mass the last two days. And I 56 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:18,519 Speaker 1: don't know. I didn't talk to Mr Khan about this, 57 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 1: but I got the sense that as the losing was 58 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 1: going on and he wasn't doing anything, he was going 59 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 1: to let it go to the end of the year 60 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 1: as well, as he says in his statement. And then 61 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,919 Speaker 1: the seven thousand dollars in fines de Fowler I thought 62 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 1: What was really a damning one yesterday was the ninety 63 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 1: dollar fine that Leonard for Nett acknowledged that he was 64 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: given back walking out of the locker room yesterday. It 65 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: seemed like something had to be done. Nine players without 66 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 1: outspoke dollars for sitting on the bench and joking, goofing, 67 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 1: whatever you want to call it. That was the one 68 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 1: where I went, Wow, I wonder how long this can 69 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 1: take you? You just got the feeling this was sliding 70 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 1: downhill midday yesterday, UM, and Mr Khan took the action 71 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: that he felt was necessary. It's hard to argue with it. 72 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 1: There are some people out there arguing, why didn't you 73 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 1: just let it? Let it go? UM? But I think 74 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 1: he had to make a statement and do something, and 75 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: so he did. Yeah. I'm always a big id to 76 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: hear both sides of the story. I'm sure from Tom 77 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: the Jaguar's perspective, you know that not everything is out 78 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: in terms of what happened. You can be sure of that, right, 79 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 1: But you won't hear that this week though correct and 80 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: February I prefer to say by that of no matter 81 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 1: what the details were, at this point, the perception because 82 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: of the memo it was runaway is that this is 83 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: not a player friendly organization. No matter what had been 84 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 1: said by the organization at this point, I don't think 85 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:43,559 Speaker 1: it was gonna I don't think there was a wave 86 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 1: that was going to wipe away that perception. It was 87 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: gonna be hard to change that, maybe impossible to change 88 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 1: it as long as Tom was in the chair without 89 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 1: a doubt, so that even if they had not wanted 90 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,839 Speaker 1: to do the hands were kind of tied. The last 91 00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 1: line the you should can hider these elements when you 92 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 1: decide whether you're going to play in Jacksonville or no. 93 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: I had never seen that before. I'll ask Gergie Hayward. 94 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,719 Speaker 1: I'm sure he's never seen Clay's Campbell had never seen 95 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 1: that before. A lot of the the older line guys 96 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 1: had never seen anything like that before. Um I had 97 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 1: someone tell me that's a hit job by the Union 98 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 1: on Tom. Uh. Absolutely it was. I mean, they were 99 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,719 Speaker 1: making their point that this is not the way it's done, 100 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:31,279 Speaker 1: and so they attacked and they got what they wanted. 101 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 1: Essentially a hit job or not fair or not, it 102 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 1: had the effect and and and from Shod's perspectives, to 103 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 1: do you couldn't have a perception that you couldn't friendly players. No, 104 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: you couldn't. It had to change. He couldn't wait for 105 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 1: him to retire. And and I believe, and I have 106 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 1: not talked to Tom this morning or last night, but 107 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 1: I believe that he understood it too. Can we throw 108 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 1: the graphic up of Tom in two thousand three, when 109 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 1: Tom was fired as they head coach here, you didn't hear. 110 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 1: We didn't hear from him. I didn't talk to him 111 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 1: for months, m months. He didn't make a public statement. Um, 112 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:09,919 Speaker 1: I don't think he ever did. He was out of 113 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,160 Speaker 1: football and oh three and he came back with the 114 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: Giants and never really talked about Jacksonville. And last night 115 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: I was waiting to see what might happen, if we 116 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: would hear anything. And then he released this statement and 117 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 1: from Chris Mortenson, through Chris Mortenson, who is one of 118 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:31,559 Speaker 1: his dear friends, who's a huge supporter of the j fund. 119 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:38,159 Speaker 1: But the comment was that Sandy montag No, Okay, the 120 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 1: comment right there where he says that he was grateful. 121 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: I don't know what you can see the whole thing 122 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 1: at the and he basically says he'll always be supportive 123 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 1: of the Jagon that he saying he's grateful for the 124 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:53,719 Speaker 1: time here. My impression was that wasn't his tone at all. Three. No, No, 125 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 1: you didn't hear anything from him. He didn't talk at 126 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,719 Speaker 1: all in oh three. I'm not sure that he talked 127 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 1: in Jacksonville publicly until he came back here with the 128 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 1: j fund Um much later in the decade. Yeah, yeah, 129 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: I mean that he talked about it, that he had 130 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 1: success in New York, that he was willing to talk 131 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 1: about what happened with the Jaguars. That for him to 132 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 1: make this statement last night says to me that he 133 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 1: acknowledges that it was time. I'll leave it at that. 134 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: That's my impression. Um, But it's hard to argue that 135 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 1: something had to happen. It was critical mass. So now 136 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 1: going forward, I mean, we all knew change would likely 137 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 1: be coming at the end of the season. Now that 138 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 1: we have seen this change here yesterday, what happens now 139 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 1: the final two weeks and at the end of the season, 140 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: we think, well, that's a great question, and it's one 141 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: that a lot of people are trying to to sift through. Um. 142 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 1: Could Doug Marone stay? Um? I watched his press conference 143 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: yesterday and left with a distinct feeling that he could 144 00:07:56,120 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 1: um Mr CON's statement where he said, I have high 145 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 1: expectations for the final two games, and to me is 146 00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 1: leaving the door wide open. He and and and and 147 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 1: his people are No, they don't leave words to chance. 148 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: To me, that says, well, they go beat the Colts 149 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 1: and the Falcons here the last two weeks, or the 150 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: Falcons and the Colts in order. Uh, they could make 151 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 1: the decision to see Doug Morone as the coach. Uh 152 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 1: does Dave Caldwell stay. I mean, I think all of 153 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 1: those things are still on the table. I know people 154 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: probably don't want to hear that. I think there's a 155 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: sentiment out there. Fire everybody, right, I mean, burn the 156 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 1: thing to the ground, get the hose in the broom, 157 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: clean it all out. Um, you don't know the whole 158 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,319 Speaker 1: story with that, Well, no, I don't. I don't at all. 159 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:44,319 Speaker 1: And so my fans don't say blow it up. It 160 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 1: would be interesting to see how these last two weeks 161 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 1: go and what Mr Khan decides to do. Yeah, blowing 162 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 1: up is as as cathartic as it some Nimes fields 163 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: for fans, is not always the best choice. I have 164 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 1: no idea what shout to um in the in the 165 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 1: release of shots. When there's a release like that, you 166 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 1: spend the next however long until the man talks, parsing 167 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,560 Speaker 1: through it and trying to interpret words. I had many 168 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 1: emails last night, well he said the use of the 169 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 1: word interim. I had people asking me, well, does that 170 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:24,720 Speaker 1: mean it's all interim and they're gone af for two weeks. 171 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 1: I would not read too much into the word interim, 172 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 1: except for the fact that Tom was the reporting point 173 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 1: for both men directly. It was it was like this, 174 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: so Seaan wanted to address now it will be to 175 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 1: him like this until further news is revealed about how 176 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 1: the organization structured. I didn't get the sense that he 177 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:46,680 Speaker 1: was saying this is interim and both men are gone. 178 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 1: But there were people out there, I think, who tried 179 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 1: to read into that. I wouldn't read that way into it. 180 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 1: You just needed some sort of structure. Yes, and I 181 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 1: agree with you. I would like me I'll go out 182 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:00,079 Speaker 1: and say it. I would like to see dougs a 183 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 1: because I think he's done a good job in really 184 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: tough circumstances. I think he's a good NFL coach. Um. 185 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:07,440 Speaker 1: I see him both I mean, I think Dave Carlo 186 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 1: has had better drafts in the last three or four years, 187 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 1: and he did before. But I don't know what chid. 188 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 1: I think it's important to mention. And you said this 189 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,679 Speaker 1: last week, a lot of people were talking about Mike McCarthy. 190 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:21,320 Speaker 1: He did the story with the Tom Tella sorrow on 191 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,719 Speaker 1: NFL Network and then Peter King did one with him 192 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 1: this week. And he's a hot name as a former 193 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: Super Bowl winner who's getting back into it. You take 194 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 1: him and you take Ron Rivera, who was fired by 195 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: the Carolina Panthers. Where's the differentiation point? Are they that 196 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 1: much different? Their professional football coaches lifers so to speak? Actually, 197 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: if he called that Mike McCarthy had a great run, 198 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 1: he had Aaron Rodgers, right, um, Ron Rivera had Cam 199 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 1: Newton who got him to a super Bowl. When Cam 200 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: played at his highest level, he was he was a 201 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 1: good team and he didn't. They were just Okay. Doug 202 00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 1: has had quarterback turmoil here and I think we should 203 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 1: address ye. Really, the issue the NFL p A thing 204 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 1: is it was the match that lit the bonfire, but 205 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,959 Speaker 1: the bonfire was set up here because they made a 206 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:15,680 Speaker 1: mistake at quarterback. And if you mess up the quarterback position, 207 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 1: nothing works. And if you get the quarterback position right, 208 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 1: nearly everything works. And what I find ironic, and you 209 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 1: and I've talked about this, so in they passed on 210 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson and Patrick Mahomes for an obvious reason. They 211 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:33,760 Speaker 1: wanted Leonard for Nette to play a particular style of football. 212 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: They had built the defense through free agency. They felt 213 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 1: like Blake Bortles could play a play action style and 214 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 1: they could win. And they did great defense, and right, 215 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:45,760 Speaker 1: they were going to play to a defense with play 216 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 1: action in the running game, and they did so. They 217 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 1: draft Leonard for Nett, and they get as far as 218 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,559 Speaker 1: this franchise, as close as this franchise, I should say, 219 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 1: has ever been to the Super Bowl. They had a 220 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 1: lead in the fourth quarter with six minutes to play 221 00:11:56,679 --> 00:12:00,959 Speaker 1: in New England. But then the last two years the 222 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 1: quarterback thing. They extend Blake, they cut Blake, they signed Nick, 223 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 1: they find Gardner. Right, the quarterback position here is a mess, 224 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 1: so much movement, a mess financially. And meanwhile you look 225 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,320 Speaker 1: at Deshaun Watson and Houston and Patrick Mahomes in Kansas 226 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:19,679 Speaker 1: City playoff teams. Mahomes already want us an m v P, 227 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,160 Speaker 1: and you feel like Watson and his career is going 228 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:26,080 Speaker 1: to win an m v P. And so from their moment, right, 229 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 1: they built it around the running game, and they built 230 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 1: it around the defense, and that's not sustainable. You can't 231 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 1: win long term in this league unless you build around 232 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,680 Speaker 1: the quarterback. Even look at Tavan Brian. They draft Aven 233 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 1: Brian instead of Lamar Jackson because because we'll hold on 234 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 1: a second, but not for the reason you're thinking, I 235 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:44,760 Speaker 1: point out, because they looked and said, well, Taven Bryan 236 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,320 Speaker 1: replaces Mollie Jackson who had a huge cap number and 237 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 1: didn't play all that well. So they were still building 238 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 1: around the defense and the running game, thinking they'd figure 239 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,319 Speaker 1: out the quarterback position. Well, you can't figure out the 240 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: quarterback position until you draft the right guy. I remember 241 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 1: in two thousand seventeen, it was about winning lunch, it 242 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 1: was about winning right now, and that's why they dropped 243 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,560 Speaker 1: it did what they did, and you sort of felt 244 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 1: at the time, short term gain, long term pain is apossible. 245 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 1: Here uh had a grade seventeen and now here they 246 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 1: are with a mess a massive quarterback and they've got 247 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 1: to fix that. So that to me, if I'm looking 248 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 1: at it objectively. If you're looking for reasons to fire 249 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 1: Tom Coughlin, you fired because the quarterback position is an 250 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 1: utter mess. You could have Knit Foles on this roster, 251 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,559 Speaker 1: and I believe that you will next year as a 252 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 1: backup at twenty two million dollars. Okay, Well, I mean 253 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: that's that's a fireball. That's a fireball offense in the NFL. 254 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 1: You can't you can't have that. So but it was 255 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: the NFL p a issue that lit the fire on 256 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:50,559 Speaker 1: this thing and got it rolling downhill. Quick story, Um, 257 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:52,320 Speaker 1: I walk out this door. You see a picture of 258 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:56,559 Speaker 1: Cornell Lake. Carnell was a Pro Bowl safeties you remember 259 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,079 Speaker 1: all Pro safety jack Were signed him in ninety nine 260 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 1: and had that great run in that season. It fell 261 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: short of the Super Bowl, but they restructured his contract 262 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 1: a couple of times, and it's it's been the worst 263 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:10,439 Speaker 1: contract in Jaguar's history because he made eighteen million dollars 264 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 1: in cash and played eighteen games. Okay, Bill, great for Carnell, 265 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,719 Speaker 1: who is a phenomenal human being, but it was a 266 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 1: terrible contract. Well so can you imagine if you have 267 00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: Nick Foles here and he started four games and if 268 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 1: he's the backup next year, he will have made forty 269 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 1: million dollars and change for four starts. You see what 270 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: I mean. I mean that's the real reason why change 271 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: had to happen. It's just this nfl p A thing 272 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 1: was again the match, the fuel for the fire. It 273 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 1: was gonna happen at the end of the season. The 274 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 1: nflp A thing made it happen ten days before. That's 275 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 1: a good way to summarize it up.

For 314 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 1: Reggie's reactions big Tom Coughlin news, it means we had 315 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:25,160 Speaker 1: to change some things up, but he's back on the program. 316 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:28,200 Speaker 1: Do not fear, Reggie. When you heard the news last night, 317 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,680 Speaker 1: what do you think? Um? I was a little bit surprised. 318 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,479 Speaker 1: I mean, we knew things were going to be a 319 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 1: little you know, shaped up at the end of the season, 320 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:37,560 Speaker 1: but to see what the NFLPA had to say about 321 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 1: the situation that was that was a little eye catching. 322 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,680 Speaker 1: As a former player, when you may be going into 323 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:46,399 Speaker 1: a big ear, you hear that, you know, you gotta 324 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:49,960 Speaker 1: watch where you're going, especially when it comes to money. 325 00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:52,680 Speaker 1: I mean, that's gonna hurt that team. Have you ever 326 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 1: seen the Association ever say something not not just like that, 327 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 1: but negative publicly about a particular franchise. I can't recall 328 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 1: it never, And and I think it's like it's a 329 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 1: tip for tap now because um, the league has been 330 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 1: locking down on players, you know, behavior and how they're being, 331 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 1: you know, how they how they walk outside of these 332 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:18,200 Speaker 1: doors and represent the NFL. Now the NFLPA is saying like, Okay, now, 333 00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 1: you guys need to clean something up. Okay, you can't 334 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 1: treat these players like that. You can't like just rob 335 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,199 Speaker 1: them out of out of necessity to get them to 336 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 1: do what you need them to do. So we're not 337 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 1: gonna go for that. So we're gonna clean up our side, 338 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 1: you clean up your side, and we're gonna make an 339 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 1: example at a time conferment. We're gonna make an example 340 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,399 Speaker 1: out of the Jaguars. And I think that sends like 341 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 1: a ripple effect through the NFL. So if you're out 342 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:45,840 Speaker 1: there trying to um manipulate some of your players by 343 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 1: contracts and what money you give them, stop it immediately. 344 00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:50,520 Speaker 1: We're not gonna we're not gonna settle for that. So 345 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 1: it's it's it's it's a new error in football. What's 346 00:18:55,080 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 1: the strangest fine you ever got? And strange look or 347 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 1: or a teammate Denver or Jacksonville and its strange meaning, Man, 348 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:06,159 Speaker 1: how in the world can they find a guy for 349 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:09,160 Speaker 1: that and that much money? Because this is not new. 350 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,600 Speaker 1: I mean, guys have been fine while you think about 351 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:15,160 Speaker 1: that year one. Um. Tom Coughlin is always fine guys, 352 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:19,440 Speaker 1: I mean, this is no Jeff will be on with 353 00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 1: JP later today. And Jeff used to have to go 354 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:25,959 Speaker 1: and fight with Tom about the c B A. And 355 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:28,399 Speaker 1: I can remember there was a bet between Fred Taylor 356 00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:30,880 Speaker 1: and Marlos Lee Roy, who was an defensive tackle here 357 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: in the late nineties. Earl I think was two thousand 358 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 1: about Florida Georgia. Marlos was a defensive tackle from Georgia. 359 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:38,880 Speaker 1: Fred obviously played at Florida. The loser had to wear 360 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 1: a suit in the color of the other team, so 361 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 1: Marlos wore an orange suit with a blue tie and 362 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 1: a blue shirt. I mean, it was it was. It 363 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:51,399 Speaker 1: was loud, but but it was it was. It was. 364 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 1: It was custom made, so it wasn't like something they 365 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,680 Speaker 1: bought off where you could buy an orange suit only Gainsville, 366 00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:00,040 Speaker 1: probably maybe Syracuse, so maybe Tom should have a he 367 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,640 Speaker 1: shooted that being a Syracus guy. But but he find 368 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 1: him five grand conductor tremental for wearing the shoot and 369 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 1: I remember going, oh, that's that that that it seems successive. 370 00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:12,800 Speaker 1: But comparatively speaking, I mean do you remember some of 371 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 1: these not really, you know when I came into the league. 372 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 1: I came in the league with Mike Shanahan and different Broncos, 373 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:22,120 Speaker 1: and you know, he had structure, but he allowed us 374 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 1: to have fun. I mean, like the most other saying 375 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:26,879 Speaker 1: someone get fined for and it had nothing to do 376 00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:30,919 Speaker 1: with football, was we would have tremendous gambling parties and 377 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:34,400 Speaker 1: we would you know, play cards or play poker and 378 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:38,760 Speaker 1: someone didn't pay that debt, Shanahan would pull it out 379 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 1: of there, out of their contract and pay that person, 380 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 1: which we all were found with. It wasn't something that 381 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 1: you know, people were shouting and screaming about, but we 382 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 1: used to hear her stories about you know, the Jaguars 383 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 1: and Tom Coffin and people getting fined for not for 384 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:56,640 Speaker 1: taking their helmets off during you know, just a sideline activity, 385 00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 1: and we were like, how could he find people or 386 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 1: or or an over people like that just because they're 387 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 1: taking their helmet off and getting a civil water. These 388 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 1: are adults we're talking about, So we kind of everyone 389 00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 1: kind of cringe when he came to Jacksonville and how 390 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,679 Speaker 1: the coach handled the players. But they were being successful, 391 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 1: so I guess everybody swept that out of the rug. 392 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 1: Now you fast forward to two thousand and nineteen and 393 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:21,440 Speaker 1: he's still kind of has that type of mentality, but 394 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:25,119 Speaker 1: they're they're not successful. They're not successful. Now it brings 395 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 1: a huge spotlight on on the organization and some hands 396 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,159 Speaker 1: half the row. Well, the other thing I think it's 397 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:32,679 Speaker 1: interesting we haven't talked about it is that it was 398 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,399 Speaker 1: Tom doing the fighting. I mean, normally it's the coach 399 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,159 Speaker 1: that levies the fines. But and that put Doug in 400 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:41,719 Speaker 1: a position and he was asked yesterday awkward in his 401 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 1: news conference yesterday about you know, the role because he 402 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:49,119 Speaker 1: saw himself as being right in between a former player, 403 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,199 Speaker 1: right who works with the players, And he said that 404 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 1: management often saw him with the players, but then the 405 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 1: players often saw him with management. He said at different stops. 406 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 1: He didn't Jacksonville, but through his career or he has 407 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 1: felt that, Yeah, he's he's felt that way, so you 408 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:06,919 Speaker 1: know he was in an awkward position. The structure of 409 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 1: it was to begin with, yeah, I think like to 410 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 1: be successful, we have to have trust. And you know, 411 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:15,800 Speaker 1: you're looking at your head coach and you're wondering if 412 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,800 Speaker 1: he's sadding with management and management and sat looking at 413 00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:20,679 Speaker 1: the head coach and saying as he's siding with the players, 414 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,159 Speaker 1: and and I think Doug did a great job but 415 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 1: not choosing a side because it would fall apart so definitely. 416 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 1: But I mean, I wouldn't want to be in that 417 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:33,199 Speaker 1: position because it's too hard to win football games. And 418 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 1: now you're doing you now you're doing like the drama 419 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 1: in the back back office deal where I have to 420 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 1: make everyone happy and I don't want to make everyone happy. 421 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 1: I just want to win football games. And and that's 422 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 1: a strain that maybe he doesn't have to worry about 423 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 1: that now, maybe he can relax his shoulders and just 424 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:51,120 Speaker 1: play football and not have to worry about silly fans 425 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 1: like I mean, that's a lot of money to to 426 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 1: take care to take away from somebody with something that 427 00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:58,879 Speaker 1: you made up on the spur of the moment, Like 428 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 1: you just can't make these things mandatory during the off season. 429 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,119 Speaker 1: These people have families, they want to go home, and 430 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,679 Speaker 1: sometimes like as a player, I want to get treated 431 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,720 Speaker 1: by someone that isn't in this organization so I can 432 00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 1: get honest. I want to honest troop about if I'm 433 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 1: injured or not, you know what I mean. Some because 434 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 1: sometimes you get doctors they tell you, hey, you're all 435 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 1: right when you're really not, or you at least want 436 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 1: the right to find out the second option. And sometimes, 437 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:27,919 Speaker 1: you know, you want to spend some times with your 438 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 1: kid and your your your your wife and there in 439 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,560 Speaker 1: another state, and this is my time to be around 440 00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:38,639 Speaker 1: my family. So if if Tom was that sort of 441 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:42,040 Speaker 1: overarching issue in the locker room, and guys you know, 442 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:46,120 Speaker 1: felt like they were walking on eggshells at all times, which, 443 00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:49,159 Speaker 1: by the way, Tom kind of like that. You know. 444 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:57,879 Speaker 1: I can remember Vick Catchman who um Ben Coleman was 445 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 1: an offensive lineman who was here in the really days, 446 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:04,200 Speaker 1: And Vick is interviewing Ben, not even interviewing. They're talking 447 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 1: as they're walking down the hall. There was a rule 448 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:08,560 Speaker 1: against interviewing outside the locker room. And Tom walked by 449 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 1: and find Ben five thousand dollars for conduct detrimental for 450 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,680 Speaker 1: violating the rules, and VIC went to Tom and said, 451 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 1: you can't do that. Don't do that. He won't talk 452 00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,119 Speaker 1: to me, and Tom said, hey, look, it's not a 453 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 1: nice game. I want these guys on edge. That was 454 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:28,680 Speaker 1: his philosophy. He liked the edgenus part of it. Um. 455 00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 1: And and that's that's kind of abusing your power. I mean, 456 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:33,199 Speaker 1: I can have a conversation, we can have a I 457 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 1: can be asking you how your family is, knowing how 458 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,399 Speaker 1: your children doing that that's not an interview, no, you 459 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 1: know what I mean. Yeah, So, I mean like Tom 460 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 1: thought that that's what he needed to do to win. 461 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:46,119 Speaker 1: And when you have like I want to say, you 462 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 1: get into this like I have a a ritual or 463 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 1: I have some type. You know. This is what I 464 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:54,359 Speaker 1: feel like the reason why we have successes because I 465 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 1: have everyone nervous and they go out and they perform well. 466 00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 1: And it's hard to change that. Tom has never changed 467 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 1: anged who he is. And as a I don't think 468 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:06,120 Speaker 1: it's a stress to say hall of fame coach, because 469 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:07,199 Speaker 1: I think he's going to be in the Hall of 470 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:10,199 Speaker 1: Fame in the next five or six years. Um. He 471 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 1: didn't feel the need to what it turns out as 472 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 1: you look back on it was he wasn't the coach here, 473 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:18,880 Speaker 1: but he that's all he is. He's a coach, much 474 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,400 Speaker 1: like you know Bill Parcels didn't work out with the Dolphins, 475 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 1: Mike Holmgren didn't work out in that executive vice president 476 00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 1: role with Browns. Um. There have been situations before where 477 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:33,920 Speaker 1: you know, coaches, coach, scouts, scout personnel. Guys do their job, 478 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:36,239 Speaker 1: but when you try to take one and make him 479 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,880 Speaker 1: the other, it doesn't work. The structure just didn't pan out. 480 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:43,680 Speaker 1: It panned out for one year, um, but then fell apart. 481 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:48,120 Speaker 1: Any The reality is you don't get in again. You've 482 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:52,760 Speaker 1: known Tom longer and more intimately than I have, but 483 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,119 Speaker 1: I don't think you get the super Bowl championships. I 484 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:58,200 Speaker 1: don't think you get all this success without the other stuff. 485 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 1: With him, he was a hundred miles and hour pedal 486 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 1: believing what he believed. Now that doesn't make him right 487 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 1: and some of the things we're talking about, but he 488 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 1: wasn't gonna change his spots and it was who he was, 489 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:12,920 Speaker 1: so it was almost like you had to take this 490 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 1: to get this. And there were times where this part 491 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 1: was great with Vince Lombardi. It worked here for six 492 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 1: years before. So um, I guess the kryptonite, the fatal 493 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 1: flaw syndrome. You know you win with it, winning with 494 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: a sword bible. Uh, that was it wasn't the right way, 495 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, just go back. I mean 496 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 1: the trophy, the Lombardi trophies named after a guy that 497 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:40,240 Speaker 1: most guys didn't like playing for now. Afterwards they came 498 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:42,919 Speaker 1: back and like a lot of Tom's sayings from the 499 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:45,439 Speaker 1: early era, came back and appreciated who he was and 500 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:49,440 Speaker 1: what he meant. Um. But that style is there's only 501 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 1: one way. It's edgy. Uh, you're going to do it 502 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 1: his way. Remember his two championship seems in New York 503 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 1: were not the division winners. They weren't the best teams. 504 00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 1: They were wild card teams. That one the first one 505 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:02,439 Speaker 1: went on the road and one day beat Bread far 506 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 1: in the frigid cold in Green Bay. I mean, it's 507 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 1: they did things because, as you're right to point out, 508 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:10,440 Speaker 1: because of the way that he coached. But I think 509 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 1: Reggie made a good point. When you're winning, it's endearing, yea, 510 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 1: and you can put up with it and it's quirky 511 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 1: it's fun when you're losing. It doesn't work. It doesn't work. 512 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:24,200 Speaker 1: I mean, like we all thought that he was He's 513 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:26,199 Speaker 1: going to get lego at the end of season. I 514 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 1: just think the nfl p A just brought it up 515 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 1: a few days. That's it. It's not that surprising. Someone 516 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 1: was going. Someone's gone, right, So I'm going to be us. No, No, 517 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:39,159 Speaker 1: they will see. We'll see if there are more that 518 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 1: are going or if they stay. That's the big question. 519 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:43,400 Speaker 1: I mean, do they do they let it all sit 520 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 1: on time or do they are they gonna you know, 521 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:49,399 Speaker 1: is that knife gonna keep cutting?

It 562 00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 1: is very honest locker room, very vocal locker room, especially 563 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,360 Speaker 1: when we discussed the nfl PA news. Obviously we did 564 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 1: not know about the Tom Coughlin news yesterday in the 565 00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 1: locker room, but we did speak to Doug Moron earlier 566 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 1: in the morning. He was asked about the grievances and 567 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 1: he said, for the next two weeks. I really can't 568 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:35,840 Speaker 1: focus on that right now. Things happen at the end 569 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:38,320 Speaker 1: and I have time to look into it and find it. Shoot, 570 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 1: you guys know, I'll stand up here, I'll answer all 571 00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:42,880 Speaker 1: your questions on it. But right now that that that's 572 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:48,240 Speaker 1: not my focus. I'm trying to save, save, save everyone, 573 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 1: you know, the players on the coaches one of Dug 574 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:57,920 Speaker 1: Maron's most honest, revealing, best press confidence I thought he's 575 00:30:57,920 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 1: had this entire season. I mean, he was putting a 576 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 1: very very difficult spot talking about these NFL PA news 577 00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 1: when really he didn't have a lot to do with 578 00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:08,160 Speaker 1: it and had to answer every single one of those questions. Honestly, 579 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:13,800 Speaker 1: I thought he was terrific. I'm sorry. When you stay 580 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 1: true to yourself, it's easier to handle those situations. And Doug, 581 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:21,680 Speaker 1: since he got here, I don't know how he was 582 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 1: in Buffalo, but since he got here he has tried 583 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 1: to be as open and as honest and revealing without 584 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:30,480 Speaker 1: being too sappy. But he hasn't tried to hide what's 585 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 1: going on who he is. And sometimes fans get sick 586 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 1: of it because he'll always sort of preface it by 587 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 1: saying the same things, and I can't speak to that, 588 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 1: you know, but he is who he is, and he 589 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 1: was as honest as he could be yesterday. I think 590 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 1: he is for the most part, and it served him 591 00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:47,560 Speaker 1: well yesterday. I think he's a good NFL football coach. 592 00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:50,720 Speaker 1: I hope he's here. I think he's done a good 593 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 1: job handling a lot of weirdness this year, and I 594 00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 1: thought he did a great job yesterday. Reggie, Yeah, I agree. 595 00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 1: I mean, when you gotta handle weirdness is not played football, 596 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 1: that puts a on your job. I mean, right there, 597 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 1: you can see he was much more relaxed, like, Okay, 598 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 1: you know, I understand that. You know, this man lost 599 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:09,080 Speaker 1: his job and that's terrible, but let's focus on football. 600 00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:11,120 Speaker 1: You know, I have some more games to win, and 601 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:13,400 Speaker 1: I'm still trying to build something special here and I'm 602 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 1: not gonna get sidetrack with a story of today that's 603 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:19,240 Speaker 1: not going to be the story next week. And further, 604 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:21,800 Speaker 1: we need to win some games. I need to, you know, 605 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:24,200 Speaker 1: get these kids to understand that I'm trying to be 606 00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 1: here with them and let's do this and let's worry 607 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 1: about that other stuff later. We can talk about that 608 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:31,080 Speaker 1: in the off season. Well, and in the telling comment 609 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:34,720 Speaker 1: there's I'm trying to save coaches and players, right. He 610 00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:37,320 Speaker 1: talked about protecting players, how he felt like his role 611 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 1: was to protect his team. I think you saw what 612 00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:43,880 Speaker 1: it means to him. Yeah, And he's not talking about 613 00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:47,160 Speaker 1: coaching him, He's talking about everyone under him. He gets 614 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:49,080 Speaker 1: he I mean, he was gonna He's made a lot 615 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 1: of money. He's financially said, he didn't have to worry, 616 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:54,040 Speaker 1: but there are people around him that he feels very 617 00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 1: responsible for, which good coaches always to do. As an 618 00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,480 Speaker 1: ex player, he feels responsible for the kids too. He 619 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:03,280 Speaker 1: knows he can't keep all of them, but the kids, say, 620 00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 1: the kids that are playing for him, he feels responsible 621 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:09,440 Speaker 1: to give him the best shot to be here to succeed. 622 00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:11,840 Speaker 1: That was sincere Dug Moron, would you use you what 623 00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:13,680 Speaker 1: we say? And I think one of the other things 624 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 1: that came from his press conference was what a difficult 625 00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:19,720 Speaker 1: situation he was in. Uh. He's not in charge of 626 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 1: the roster. Tom had all the personnel say uh, in 627 00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:26,240 Speaker 1: terms of anything that had anything to do with football. 628 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 1: He he didn't have that kind of control. So for him, 629 00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:34,480 Speaker 1: he wasn't finding players, he wasn't choosing the roster. He 630 00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 1: always stood up and tried his best. You know, he 631 00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:39,920 Speaker 1: was the only one that talked about Jalen Ramsey when 632 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:41,560 Speaker 1: that whole thing went down, and he handled that. And 633 00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:44,600 Speaker 1: and then yesterday he has to come out and talk 634 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 1: about the nflp A and he wasn't even the one 635 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 1: finding players. I thought he handled it with grace. I 636 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 1: thought he explained himself in his situation. And the part 637 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:54,160 Speaker 1: that hit me, and the part that I'm always most 638 00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 1: sensitive to at this time of the year, is fire 639 00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:00,200 Speaker 1: all the coaches, Fire all the right because we got 640 00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:02,080 Speaker 1: to we get to know these guys and their families. 641 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,840 Speaker 1: And he said, genuinely, you could see it in his eyes. 642 00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 1: I'm trying to save everybody. And I felt good for you. 643 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 1: Keep going. Yeah. And I was talking to a few 644 00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:13,920 Speaker 1: of my family members way back and Thanksgiving, and I 645 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,799 Speaker 1: think the impression is when you say fire everyone, you think, oh, 646 00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:19,319 Speaker 1: just the head coach, but you don't realize when you 647 00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:22,920 Speaker 1: say that, it's even more so. It's equipment in training, 648 00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 1: in football ops and all these roles that go into 649 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,719 Speaker 1: building a football team. It's so many jobs. And I 650 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:31,759 Speaker 1: think it's almost endearing when you say just fire the 651 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:33,880 Speaker 1: head coach. You don't understand how many jobs are affected 652 00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:36,439 Speaker 1: by that, not at all. Yeah, all right, so let's 653 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:38,239 Speaker 1: go back to the locker room. There were kind of 654 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:39,919 Speaker 1: two sides of the locker room yesterday. They were guys, 655 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 1: everyone was honest, But there were two sides of the 656 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,799 Speaker 1: nfl p A discussion. Some guys were very honest saying 657 00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:47,400 Speaker 1: they didn't agree with it, and some guys said, like 658 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:49,799 Speaker 1: a j can if you follow the rules, you're good. 659 00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:52,880 Speaker 1: Let stay out of tribal we won't get fine. I 660 00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 1: do what you gotta do. You wanna get fine. Uh 661 00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 1: I don't think I've been fine that I've been here, 662 00:34:57,239 --> 00:35:01,880 Speaker 1: but uh I haven't had a power way anything government. 663 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:04,160 Speaker 1: Sho had a similar message in his press conference, saying, 664 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:06,319 Speaker 1: I'm very tight with money. I'm not going to do 665 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:08,920 Speaker 1: anything that gets even close to the line because I'm 666 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:14,040 Speaker 1: not giving anyone my money. Yeah, well, you know you're 667 00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:17,360 Speaker 1: a gentleman. Here's the thing. I mean, the things that 668 00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:21,640 Speaker 1: they were fined over, like, are those really findable offenses? 669 00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:23,600 Speaker 1: And that's that's why we that's why you have to 670 00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:26,880 Speaker 1: according to the nfl p A exactly. So now you're saying, like, 671 00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:28,960 Speaker 1: follow the rules. Well, I don't have to follow up 672 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,960 Speaker 1: made up rules. These rules were made up, so and 673 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,399 Speaker 1: the amount of money that he found them, that's that's 674 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 1: the learning That one is alarming. Yeah, that's alarming. That's 675 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:40,799 Speaker 1: a that's a huge chunk of money for But we 676 00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:43,800 Speaker 1: all recall that game and what a bad look that for. 677 00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:47,760 Speaker 1: But we all all show new because the fighting Buffalo 678 00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:50,840 Speaker 1: had triggered the ability for them to take away the 679 00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:54,040 Speaker 1: guarantee on his remaining money, and we all knew that 680 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:57,239 Speaker 1: was gonna happen. So then why finding on top I mean, 681 00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:00,440 Speaker 1: she that comes off is vindictive and and at is 682 00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:02,759 Speaker 1: that look where all of a sudden, if I'm if 683 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:04,680 Speaker 1: I'm shot, I have to say, all right, I gotta 684 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:06,959 Speaker 1: do this right now because I can't have that become 685 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:09,319 Speaker 1: the story tomorrow man, that I've got to get in 686 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:11,280 Speaker 1: front of this one right there, and that I think 687 00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:15,279 Speaker 1: that that explains the conversation of why players don't show 688 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:18,719 Speaker 1: loyalty to the organization that drafts them. And then you know, 689 00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 1: fans are starting to understand that why has he leaving? 690 00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:23,799 Speaker 1: We were good to know You're starting to see that 691 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,960 Speaker 1: ugly background where players like, look, I have to take 692 00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:28,439 Speaker 1: care of my family. I had to do what's best 693 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:31,320 Speaker 1: for me. Now, the fans are really getting the dose up. Okay, 694 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:33,400 Speaker 1: I see where the players are coming from, and this 695 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:36,319 Speaker 1: is why they leave certain organizations. All right. So let's 696 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:38,360 Speaker 1: wrap it up with Klais Campbell. He is the player 697 00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:42,480 Speaker 1: rep for the Jaguars. Whenever questions with player Association finds, 698 00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:44,920 Speaker 1: players go to Klais Campbell. So we definitely had to 699 00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:47,320 Speaker 1: hear from him on this. He knows it's a problem 700 00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:51,560 Speaker 1: all too well here in Jacksonville. I think the big 701 00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:53,960 Speaker 1: things is is that you know, the young are supposed 702 00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:56,120 Speaker 1: to protect the players and make sure the guys are 703 00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 1: you know, you know, just looked after and have a 704 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:01,600 Speaker 1: place where you can you know, has some security and 705 00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:03,560 Speaker 1: so you know what I mean, getting the money back 706 00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:07,080 Speaker 1: and making sure you know, you know, the player is representative. 707 00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:09,759 Speaker 1: That's the that's the ideal go. You know. But for me, 708 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:11,279 Speaker 1: I had a great time. You know, jack supp has 709 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:13,920 Speaker 1: been a great place for me, great experience here, you know, 710 00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:16,239 Speaker 1: with the organization, you know, the front office, you know, 711 00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:17,640 Speaker 1: the coach of staff. For me, it's been a great 712 00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:20,640 Speaker 1: run for me. And also you know, I'm definitely happy 713 00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:23,400 Speaker 1: to be here. See to me, that's news. By the way, 714 00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:28,520 Speaker 1: it's news when the NFL p A rep says I 715 00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:32,440 Speaker 1: have a problem. Now he knows because he sees all 716 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 1: these things. But when the rep stands up for the franchise, 717 00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:39,400 Speaker 1: that's you're like, WHOA, okay, Well, guys who are here 718 00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:43,680 Speaker 1: all off season typically I haven't had a problem. And 719 00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:49,160 Speaker 1: there are guys who choose to stay intact, and that 720 00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:53,200 Speaker 1: is the kind of person most teams, But the rules 721 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:55,880 Speaker 1: say that you don't have to be that guy. And 722 00:37:56,320 --> 00:38:01,040 Speaker 1: the for Net stuff, Um, I understand. And why Tom 723 00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:05,160 Speaker 1: find him after that, Uh, it was a terrible look 724 00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 1: and I think it was conduct detrimental the way he 725 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:11,120 Speaker 1: was behaving on the sidelines. If you remember, you know, 726 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:15,319 Speaker 1: at the time when that happened, very few fans would 727 00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:17,960 Speaker 1: have said, yeah, Tom's wrong for finding him for that, 728 00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 1: because it was. But as an executive, you sort of 729 00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:22,800 Speaker 1: have to know what we're talking about, how it looks 730 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:25,239 Speaker 1: right now, and you're already taking away the guaranteed money 731 00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 1: million dollars. But look, this is over that incident, and 732 00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:32,920 Speaker 1: it was a pretty bad look and for Net had 733 00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:37,239 Speaker 1: had over and over again, really bad. I guess I 734 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:43,720 Speaker 1: understand the instinct but as an executive, you have to know. Okay, 735 00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 1: I'm just being mad. Now I can't actually go ahead 736 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:48,239 Speaker 1: and find for this and as we have to have 737 00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:52,680 Speaker 1: thirteen million dollars, if you recall that that incident was bad, 738 00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:55,880 Speaker 1: I haven't forgotten it, but I'm making it on the 739 00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:58,840 Speaker 1: backside now where everything is a log on the fire. 740 00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:02,000 Speaker 1: And and by the way, fines aren't made public unless 741 00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:04,799 Speaker 1: players make me public. The team never says we find 742 00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:06,960 Speaker 1: so and so this amount and so and so that amount. 743 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 1: We would always hear about them because players would tell you, 744 00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:17,400 Speaker 1: um privately, I don't know. I just know that it's uh, 745 00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:19,360 Speaker 1: it's it's no surprise to any of us who have 746 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:21,040 Speaker 1: been around You have known Tom for any like the 747 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:26,480 Speaker 1: time that he wields the fine, because this was his army, 748 00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 1: in his in his mindset, and unlike the military, where 749 00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:33,920 Speaker 1: if you disobey orders, you're going to jail. Uh, he 750 00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:37,520 Speaker 1: was able to use their money as a weapon to 751 00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:41,000 Speaker 1: keep them in line. But you can't do that anymore. 752 00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:43,479 Speaker 1: You and I were having a conversation, and you think 753 00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:45,800 Speaker 1: that the coach in Seattle has the right approach in 754 00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:49,319 Speaker 1: today's NFL. Yeah, Well, I basically was basically talking about 755 00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:51,640 Speaker 1: It's like Pete Carroll tries to have relationships with his 756 00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:56,880 Speaker 1: players and honesty is the best relationship. Tony Dungey hit 757 00:39:56,920 --> 00:39:59,200 Speaker 1: the same thing, like, I'm going to be honest with you. 758 00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:01,000 Speaker 1: If you're not going to be here, I would let 759 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:04,080 Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, and and I'm not gonna find you 760 00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:07,319 Speaker 1: and continue to try to control you with fear. I'm 761 00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:09,799 Speaker 1: gonna be honest with you and can and let you 762 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,719 Speaker 1: know that, Hey, um, you're helping this team, you're hurting 763 00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:14,479 Speaker 1: this team. We're gonna let you go or we're gonna 764 00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:17,040 Speaker 1: keep you instead of you walking around here on eggshells. 765 00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:20,960 Speaker 1: I'm I'm I'm curious to see how much money Tom 766 00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:24,160 Speaker 1: has a mass with fans and is is there a 767 00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:27,960 Speaker 1: huge difference between him and other coaches or GM because 768 00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:32,160 Speaker 1: you know, that's just me being curious. But I wouldn't 769 00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:34,319 Speaker 1: want to be in a system where, if you know, 770 00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:38,440 Speaker 1: my suit didn't live up to the you know, standard 771 00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:41,160 Speaker 1: of the coach, I was gonna get fine. That's that's 772 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:43,560 Speaker 1: you don't want to be around that type of environment. 773 00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:47,239 Speaker 1: No one wants that exactly. No one wants to just 774 00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:50,120 Speaker 1: walk around wondering if they're gonna get fine for talking 775 00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:52,319 Speaker 1: to someone in the hallway. That's not I should be 776 00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:54,560 Speaker 1: focused on football and who I'm going up against and 777 00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:56,759 Speaker 1: what you know I need to do to get the 778 00:40:56,800 --> 00:40:58,759 Speaker 1: job done.

It's Tom Coughlin's comments 820 00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:33,960 Speaker 1: right after he was let go by the Jaguars, basically 821 00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:36,919 Speaker 1: applauding his time here, saying he appreciates the time here, 822 00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 1: also noted there's still plenty of football left for me, 823 00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:44,279 Speaker 1: Tom Coughlin, and you, Brian, you were saying that didn't 824 00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:46,960 Speaker 1: happen the last time this happened, right, I mean, we 825 00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:48,960 Speaker 1: all knew that Tom was going to go coach and 826 00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:50,279 Speaker 1: that you know, there were a couple of jobs that 827 00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:52,759 Speaker 1: he interviewed for UM. I don't know that that's the 828 00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:56,120 Speaker 1: case now. Obviously he's seventy seventy three years of age. 829 00:43:56,400 --> 00:44:01,200 Speaker 1: But the statement from him about UM being grateful to 830 00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:05,280 Speaker 1: Mr Khan and proud of seventeen and supportive of the franchise. 831 00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:07,839 Speaker 1: They did not. We We never heard any of that 832 00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:10,279 Speaker 1: from him when he was let go in January two 833 00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:14,200 Speaker 1: thousand and three. So to me and just me knowing 834 00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:18,120 Speaker 1: him as I do, that was his I get it right, 835 00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:21,759 Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not going to leave angry and and 836 00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:25,759 Speaker 1: distance myself from I mean, he's not gonna be here. Um, 837 00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:27,960 Speaker 1: but he lives in Jacksonville, So I think that that 838 00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:31,319 Speaker 1: was his way of saying that. Just my interpretation, Well, 839 00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:34,279 Speaker 1: I'm glad for that because he's part of this community. 840 00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:35,680 Speaker 1: And look, his name is going to go up on 841 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:38,719 Speaker 1: the wall. This team is pending three a f C 842 00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:41,560 Speaker 1: Championship games in its twenty five years, and he was 843 00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:44,160 Speaker 1: an instrumental party in all three. His name is going 844 00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:49,440 Speaker 1: on the wall. There's no doubt. Yeah, he's He's in 845 00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:52,279 Speaker 1: the blood of the team. He built this thing. If 846 00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:54,160 Speaker 1: you don't look, if you want to hear some great stories, 847 00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:58,560 Speaker 1: go to the UH Jaguars official podcast site and listen 848 00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:00,960 Speaker 1: to the prospective series that I did this year for 849 00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:04,359 Speaker 1: the anniversary and I I have a scam likely coming through. 850 00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:11,480 Speaker 1: Hold on, go away. Um. He talks in great in 851 00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:15,400 Speaker 1: great detail, in that podcast about the process from getting 852 00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:21,760 Speaker 1: hired two, building the franchise, every person they had anything 853 00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:24,840 Speaker 1: to do with football he hired right. Every process that 854 00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:27,879 Speaker 1: was put in place for that early success he did 855 00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:32,200 Speaker 1: so right. Now, everybody's angry at Tom. Right. I joked 856 00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:35,759 Speaker 1: with someone today, choose the best restaurant in town? Right, 857 00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:39,960 Speaker 1: And there's Friday night, no tables available. There's one table 858 00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:43,200 Speaker 1: this night. And the CEO from g J. E. A. 859 00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:46,440 Speaker 1: Errands On who was dismissed this week, and Tom walk In, 860 00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:48,960 Speaker 1: who gets it right. I mean, there's a lot of 861 00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:51,160 Speaker 1: anger in Jacksonville this week, and Tom is getting his 862 00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:54,680 Speaker 1: share of it. But in time that anger will abate 863 00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:57,720 Speaker 1: and his name will go on the wall and people 864 00:45:57,719 --> 00:45:59,759 Speaker 1: will remember all the good things he did for this 865 00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:02,719 Speaker 1: for Chris today, No way, no one wants to hear it. 866 00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:06,960 Speaker 1: You can't expect that. However, it needs to be said, right, 867 00:46:06,960 --> 00:46:09,560 Speaker 1: But that statement was just him being classic. No one 868 00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:13,040 Speaker 1: said Tom isn't classy. I mean, if you know him, 869 00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:15,360 Speaker 1: you know, if you know him, he's a he's a 870 00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:17,759 Speaker 1: great human being and you know he got fired and 871 00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:19,800 Speaker 1: he knows that's part of the business saying he takes 872 00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:21,719 Speaker 1: that with class and he's going to move forward, and 873 00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:24,560 Speaker 1: if he does anything with football, he wants to show that, 874 00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:28,239 Speaker 1: you know, I'm I'm I'm professional and I have a 875 00:46:28,239 --> 00:46:30,120 Speaker 1: lot of class and you don't have to worry about 876 00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:32,640 Speaker 1: that aspect. And I do think it's a little different 877 00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:35,279 Speaker 1: because when he left the Giants it wasn't pretty, and 878 00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:39,480 Speaker 1: when he left Jared's first time wasn't pretty. Statement like this, 879 00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:41,080 Speaker 1: I agree with you, Brian. He's going to be in 880 00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:45,040 Speaker 1: the community. He's going to be associated with this, the 881 00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:48,880 Speaker 1: fabrick of this in Jacksonville, and I think I'm glad 882 00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:53,040 Speaker 1: that he wants that. Yeah, one more quick story. If 883 00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:55,000 Speaker 1: you go out this hallway and take a couple of rides, 884 00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:58,759 Speaker 1: there's pictures former players and Tom is hanging there. And 885 00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:02,760 Speaker 1: when things are really bad here in two thousand, two eleven, 886 00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:07,080 Speaker 1: two thousand twelve, I remember looking at going I miss him, right, 887 00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:09,279 Speaker 1: I miss him, a big smile on his faces on 888 00:47:09,280 --> 00:47:11,720 Speaker 1: the sidelines. And I think in time people will remember 889 00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:14,480 Speaker 1: that side of Tom Coughlin more than they'll remember this 890 00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:18,040 Speaker 1: little incident here. For everything that he meant. All right, 891 00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:20,440 Speaker 1: we were all staying tuned for this. The next top tweet, 892 00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:24,000 Speaker 1: Jalen Ramsey's comments this week, he had two of them. 893 00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:28,359 Speaker 1: Didn't say much. First one to try to tell y'all yesterday, 894 00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:32,080 Speaker 1: eyes in a clothes, zipper over the mouth. Probably smart 895 00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:34,920 Speaker 1: on Jalen's part to not say much at all. Is 896 00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:38,520 Speaker 1: that saying nothing at all that really is yet? But 897 00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:43,000 Speaker 1: at least he's not typing paragraphs. Yes, yeah, she hads 898 00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:44,719 Speaker 1: a little light on him, gives him a little more 899 00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:49,520 Speaker 1: um his respect. Um. I mean, the way that he 900 00:47:49,560 --> 00:47:54,160 Speaker 1: handled things here was incredibly more less than desirable. But 901 00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:57,840 Speaker 1: now at least you maybe understand what was driving him 902 00:47:57,880 --> 00:47:59,879 Speaker 1: and you can see it from his perspective a little 903 00:47:59,880 --> 00:48:02,239 Speaker 1: bit for like, yeah, that's fair. And now we go 904 00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:05,640 Speaker 1: to Jeff Darlington's ESPN NFL reporter. He was here a 905 00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:08,200 Speaker 1: good amount during the two thousand and seventeen playoff front 906 00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:10,920 Speaker 1: and he went on Twitter and a couple of tweets, 907 00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:14,440 Speaker 1: almost six tweets, saying how he believes Maron and Codwell 908 00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:16,680 Speaker 1: should stay. He goes back to the two thousand seventeen 909 00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:19,680 Speaker 1: season saying how it was such a great accomplishment for 910 00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:21,879 Speaker 1: the two of them and basically staying to claim that 911 00:48:22,120 --> 00:48:27,640 Speaker 1: those two need to be here. He also had a 912 00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:29,480 Speaker 1: line in one of these tweets where he talked about 913 00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:36,640 Speaker 1: that was when early days, when Mr Khan's presence his 914 00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:39,320 Speaker 1: style was reflected more in the franchise. I thought it 915 00:48:39,360 --> 00:48:41,879 Speaker 1: was interesting, Yeah, because he was here a good deal 916 00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:46,680 Speaker 1: the two seventeen season. I think that letting Tom go 917 00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:50,319 Speaker 1: it's it's a big enough hit to the organization where 918 00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:53,320 Speaker 1: they can, you know, relax on the head coach and 919 00:48:53,360 --> 00:48:55,720 Speaker 1: the gym and and see if they can do something. 920 00:48:56,120 --> 00:48:58,040 Speaker 1: And if they give them two years, and if they 921 00:48:58,080 --> 00:49:00,600 Speaker 1: don't do anything in those two years, then you know 922 00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:03,399 Speaker 1: that maybe it's time for a change. But with with 923 00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:06,560 Speaker 1: Tom being gone and they're saying he was super control 924 00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:08,680 Speaker 1: and or what have you, let's see what you guys 925 00:49:08,680 --> 00:49:11,799 Speaker 1: can do now that you don't have that roll block 926 00:49:11,840 --> 00:49:14,279 Speaker 1: in a way. Do you think that if if this 927 00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:17,040 Speaker 1: was a cloud, if and we've looked, I don't don't 928 00:49:17,040 --> 00:49:18,680 Speaker 1: know what. You're just at a college a couple of years. 929 00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:20,879 Speaker 1: This is the first place you've worked. But we've all 930 00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:25,640 Speaker 1: probably worked in places with people bosses where just the culture, 931 00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:28,680 Speaker 1: the atmosphere was less than desirable. Right, you didn't feel 932 00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:31,200 Speaker 1: comfortable or you didn't feel like you could be your best. 933 00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:35,319 Speaker 1: And I'm not saying that's the case here. Um, but 934 00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:39,320 Speaker 1: if if players felt that way and you take that away, 935 00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:43,879 Speaker 1: reasonable to expect something on the field, to see something 936 00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:46,759 Speaker 1: on the field, or is that beyond well this team 937 00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:50,960 Speaker 1: play better. Um, we'll see, I mean that's I mean, 938 00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:54,160 Speaker 1: Tom isn't the reason why everyone's playing poorly. Some people 939 00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:56,360 Speaker 1: are just not good enough to play at this level. 940 00:49:56,480 --> 00:49:59,360 Speaker 1: They need to, you know, maybe be in a different position. 941 00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:03,720 Speaker 1: But we will see what Doug can do. And I'm 942 00:50:03,760 --> 00:50:05,879 Speaker 1: thinking next year we will see what he can do 943 00:50:06,520 --> 00:50:09,680 Speaker 1: with the people that he may have some some some 944 00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:12,920 Speaker 1: say so on bringing in here and how he wants 945 00:50:12,960 --> 00:50:17,000 Speaker 1: to control the personnel. And that's going to speak volumes 946 00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:20,080 Speaker 1: to how well he knows what he's doing and how 947 00:50:20,239 --> 00:50:23,960 Speaker 1: much influenced Tom had on on on the team. So 948 00:50:24,040 --> 00:50:27,279 Speaker 1: we'll see, we will see a lot of questions still 949 00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:32,680 Speaker 1: to be answered. That's yeah, yeah, shows all up until then. 950 00:50:32,680 --> 00:50:35,720 Speaker 1: All right, thanks for watching Jaguars Drive Time this Thursday morning. 951 00:50:35,719 --> 00:50:38,080 Speaker 1: Stay tuned to Jaguars Happy Are the Dug Round Show. 952 00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:41,319 Speaker 1: Later on this afternoon, dun Rones press conference live on 953 00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:42,600 Speaker 1: Twitter at eleven o'clock
