We'll 10 00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:39,720 Speaker 1: look at the week fourteen the Jags and the Titans. 11 00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:45,560 Speaker 1: The Jaguars had not one in Nashville since they'll try 12 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,880 Speaker 1: to snap that losing skin up there this week. Running 13 00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:53,240 Speaker 1: back conversation has dominated the headlines the last few days. 14 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,680 Speaker 1: Five games to go in the regular season and social 15 00:00:56,680 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 1: media questions. A busy show, John Oser with me. Bucky 16 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:04,319 Speaker 1: Brooks is not with us. He's out in Los Angeles 17 00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 1: somewhere along the roadside. Where are you right now? Bucky? 18 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 1: Oh my god, you have no idea. So I'm waiting 19 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 1: to watch my daughter Priss Sock for game. I am 20 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,880 Speaker 1: outside of a local Starbucks outside because in l A 21 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: you have to mask up when you're inside, and so 22 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:24,560 Speaker 1: I couldn't do a show from inside. It's what did 23 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: you order? That's the next question. Oh it would be 24 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 1: a vanilla? Okay, Well that's how you know what. Blucky 25 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 1: gets it done. He gets the job done, no matter 26 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,760 Speaker 1: what it takes. He makes the air, we do the show. 27 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:42,199 Speaker 1: That's what we do. John around here, it's a good man. 28 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 1: That's why it's his show because I mean, if it 29 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 1: was my show, I wouldn't be doing that. That's why 30 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,440 Speaker 1: the decision was made back and on. Now we know 31 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 1: John would not go to a Starbucks. You're gonna give 32 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 1: Bucky the show now we know for sure. Let's get 33 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 1: into it today. Of course, the Jaguars back to practice today, 34 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:04,640 Speaker 1: getting ready for the week fourteen game against the division 35 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: rival Tennessee Titans. The Titans are in first place, they're 36 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 1: battling for the number one seed in the a f C. 37 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 1: They're coming off bye week. All the above. The big 38 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,640 Speaker 1: story of the week, though, the running back conversation and 39 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:20,800 Speaker 1: what happened to James Robinson in last week's game. Well, 40 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 1: we heard from Urban Meyer on the Urban Meyer Show 41 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: yesterday on the Jaguars Radio Network, and he was asked 42 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 1: how to bring everyone back on the same page, coaches 43 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 1: and players alike when it comes to running back. Obviously 44 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,640 Speaker 1: we're dealing with James. It's not full speed. He's not 45 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 1: practicing Wednesday and Thursday. Ah, he practiced someone Friday. It's 46 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: a I mean, no one's ever He's the toughest cator. 47 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:47,080 Speaker 1: That's said that every week. But you know he's also 48 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 1: in the last two games we've had twice the balls 49 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 1: on the ground and then Carlos goes in the balls 50 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 1: on the ground. Uh. Darry had an ankle issue in 51 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 1: the second half of the game, so he was unable 52 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: to go in the game. So you only have three 53 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,640 Speaker 1: running backs up. Um, and then I once again don't 54 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 1: Microman's a rotation of the running backs. Um. You know, 55 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: one thing you do, you come out of the game 56 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: if there's a fumble, and when you go back in, 57 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 1: that's that's up to you know, the coaches and and 58 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: go back in the game. UM. So as far as 59 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,079 Speaker 1: being on the same page, you know, taking care of 60 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 1: the football as a premium uh, and that's always going 61 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:24,640 Speaker 1: to be a premium here and I mean everywhere. I 62 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:28,080 Speaker 1: can't imagine someone say it's not that important. And James 63 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 1: is historically outstanding take care of the ball, So you 64 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 1: have to ask yourself why, Well, it's fundamentals, and you've 65 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: got to make sure that we're getting some work in practice. 66 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 1: He is still a relatively young player, great player, UM, 67 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 1: and I showed tape actually we met earlier today and 68 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: I showed about a fifteen play tape of against him 69 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: all in the same game the Titans and UM when 70 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 1: we played him before, and he was, you know, I 71 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: think one of the top running backs in the NFL 72 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 1: at the time and very well. Uh, as far as 73 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 1: you know, we call it chin chin chin and it's 74 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 1: uh clot Luckett. Clampet is the sound bites that are 75 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 1: running back uses, and he is outstanding at it. For 76 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: some reason he hasn't been and we have to get 77 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 1: back to those fundamentals. So that Srban Meyer on the 78 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: Urban Meyers Show yesterday some similar thoughts today in a 79 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: press conference, Bucky. But you know, right after the game 80 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 1: it sounded like it was injury. They weren't sure. And 81 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 1: now it's about ball security and the ball has been 82 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: on the deck a little bit too much lately at 83 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: running back. But there's the answer from the head coach. Yeah. 84 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 1: So there are a few different things to take out 85 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 1: of that sound bite. One urban is right. Three fumbles 86 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:39,360 Speaker 1: within rushing attempts is far too many times the ball 87 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 1: is on the ground. Secondly, when you have a player 88 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 1: that is dealing with an injury, sometimes they compromise their 89 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 1: fundamentals because it's hard to focus on doing your job 90 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 1: when it's compromised based on an injury. And so James 91 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:55,039 Speaker 1: Robinson may not be the type of player that can 92 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 1: play through a significant injury and still have the kind 93 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 1: of production that you want. So you then have to 94 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: have the conversation with your coaching staff. Is it better 95 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 1: for us to just sit him out, put somebody else in, 96 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: let him heal up, and when he's ready to fully 97 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:11,840 Speaker 1: play and function at a high level, let's do that. 98 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 1: Because the way that he's performing now it's not good enough, 99 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 1: and so you might be better served to sit him 100 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 1: down and just give it to somebody else, whoever that 101 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: is Carlos Hide Dorry, somebody else. Somebody has to perform 102 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 1: at a high level of running back right now, James 103 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 1: Robinson simply can't do that. Yeah, I kind of wish that. Um, 104 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 1: the fumble as it relates to practice, which the way 105 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: he explained it on the show yesterday, to me makes 106 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 1: some sense. Um, I kind of wish that had been 107 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,480 Speaker 1: in the forefront from the beginning. I think a lot 108 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 1: of the misunderstanding would have been cleared up. It makes 109 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:55,599 Speaker 1: sense to me hearing that, Okay, he's fuming a couple 110 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 1: of times in the last couple of games. What's the commonality, 111 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 1: hasn't practiced A whole lot of fundamentals are going different. 112 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 1: Let's get back to those fundamentals. That to me makes 113 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: some sense when you mix it in with the injury thing. 114 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:11,479 Speaker 1: I think what's confused fans. That's a difficult thing to tweet, 115 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: if that makes sense, and we're in a Twitter era 116 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 1: where people want to know exactly why they want black 117 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: and white. That's a little bit of a gray area 118 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 1: nuanced thing. It makes sense. Uh So he was practicing today, 119 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 1: Maybe that's a focus. Now, maybe you focus on figuring out, Okay, 120 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,919 Speaker 1: this has to be the priority now, this is you know, 121 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 1: this is a thing. I just think the communication on it, 122 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 1: include the communication to James based on some comments he 123 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 1: made this week that hadn't been clear and that had 124 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: been muddied. Uh So maybe now some of the focus 125 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 1: gets back on that area. I don't know. It's as 126 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 1: I've written, it's been a very difficult thing to explain, 127 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 1: to analyze and a very difficult in a very weird situation. 128 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: Let's hope JP that they get back on the same page. Yeah, 129 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:04,359 Speaker 1: no doubt, because you're gonna get back on there pretty 130 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 1: quick if you're going to Nashville Bucket. Yeah. So I'll 131 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:09,479 Speaker 1: say this because something else came out of about that. 132 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 1: He talked about not micromanaging the running back situation. To me, 133 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 1: that is not something that the head coach can't kind 134 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: of remove himself from. He is the head coach. He 135 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: ultimately dictates who plays, and so, yes, the assistant coach 136 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 1: has an opportunity to maybe make some rules that if 137 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 1: your phone when you come out of the game, But 138 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, it is on the 139 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: head coach to make sure that the best players are 140 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: in the game. And so he can have that conversation 141 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 1: with Bernie Parmerley, they can talk about it. Bernie Palmy 142 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 1: still has to run that by the head coach, because 143 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 1: no one just operates an a silo as an independent 144 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 1: contractor doing their own thing. As it relates to the team, 145 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 1: the communication is an issue coach to coach, coach, the player, player, 146 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 1: the player, everybody has to be on the same page. 147 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: And it doesn't appear that that is the case right now, 148 00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 1: that's fair, I mean, that's uh yeah, end Bucky's you know, 149 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 1: and every position coach is the guy typically in the 150 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: NFL who's making that call during the game on a 151 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: quick trigger basis, meaning you know, James Robinson running back 152 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 1: coach is going to generally dictate that. But in in 153 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 1: this situation, it is the it's the responsibility of the 154 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,240 Speaker 1: head coach to make sure that's being done right. And 155 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: and you can't not say that if you're the head coach. 156 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 1: Let's move along, guys. To Trevor Lawrence, who spoke today 157 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 1: with the media as always on Wednesday, he was asked 158 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 1: about James Robinson and said, you know, you know, coaching decisions, 159 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 1: but he's the best, one of the best players we 160 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 1: have and used to be on the field. They've addressed it, 161 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 1: and uh, they're going to move on, at least as 162 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,719 Speaker 1: an offense. Pretty strong comment by Trevor there. He did 163 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 1: a nice job and he is a guy who does 164 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: not mind saying this is the way it ought to 165 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 1: be supported the teammate. I thought it was an impressive 166 00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 1: answer from Travior. He also discussed what he's looked four 167 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:05,719 Speaker 1: down the stretch, five games to go in his rookie campaign. Man, 168 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 1: just like I've always said, keep getting better. UM, I 169 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 1: really just want to go go play free, go be me, 170 00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 1: make plays. UM, And I think just having a great 171 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 1: week of practice, trusting the game plan and then just 172 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 1: one game day comes letting it rip. That's something that UM. 173 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,439 Speaker 1: As this season's gone on, obviously there's been like we 174 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 1: set ups and downs and a lot of stuff going on, 175 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:25,320 Speaker 1: and UM, that's the one thing I need to be 176 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: consistent on and just go out there and play and 177 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 1: just be myself. And that's something I want to do 178 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: a better job of. UM, don't play in a box. 179 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 1: I just go play free. And that's something I really 180 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,559 Speaker 1: really want to do, especially finishing out this season. Build 181 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 1: on something. UM, like you said, go stack some wins 182 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 1: and feel good about the year. Obviously didn't go exactly 183 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 1: as planned, but still we can we can finish well. 184 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,440 Speaker 1: And have something to to build on for next year. Lucky. 185 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: If you're Trevor Lawrence, how do you not play in 186 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 1: a box? And how do you go play free to 187 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:55,079 Speaker 1: that have a stretch? I mean, I think if you 188 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 1: takeaways one, Trevor is very transparent and I appreciate it. 189 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 1: I think we all can sense the frustration. Um, he 190 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,439 Speaker 1: doesn't throw anybody on the bus, but I think he 191 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 1: he is frustrated by the way he is either playing 192 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 1: or being asked to play. And so when he talks 193 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 1: about playing in a box, to me, it feels like 194 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: he feels like he has these restrictions on him in 195 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:21,839 Speaker 1: terms of how he's playing, whether it's real or imagine. 196 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:25,960 Speaker 1: That's what he's saying. The other thing he's saying is, look, man, 197 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: the year didn't go the way that I wanted. But 198 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:30,679 Speaker 1: what I can't control is I'm gonna rip it. I'm 199 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 1: gonna let it play, and I'm a build upon the 200 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,839 Speaker 1: last five games to use it as a launching pad 201 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 1: for next year. And so I kind of think like this, 202 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: this is a thing amongst players. Sometimes you have to 203 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:45,199 Speaker 1: play around the coaching, you know, and not taking a 204 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 1: shot at anybody who was involved with the offensive game 205 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 1: plans and those things, but sometimes the best players have 206 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 1: to put it on themselves to make plays, regardless of 207 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 1: what that looks like inside and outside of the game plan. 208 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 1: I feel like Trevor maybe a little more of the 209 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: Gunslinger Trevor Lawrence in the coming weeks, because this way 210 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,719 Speaker 1: that he's playing right now certainly doesn't suit the way 211 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 1: that he has always played, and we're losing games anyway. 212 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 1: I think Trevor is about the letter rip. Yeah, it's 213 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,679 Speaker 1: tough because I agree with what a lot of Bucky said. 214 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,559 Speaker 1: And then there's also the element you try to put 215 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 1: yourself in the kid's shoes, meaning your twelve games in. 216 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 1: You've never gone through this before, and you've gone through 217 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 1: the process. Remember how it was when you first got 218 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 1: here JP. You didn't know what was going on around here, 219 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,079 Speaker 1: didn't know where the bathrooms were. You had to depend 220 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,840 Speaker 1: on the other zone for that is what you did. Yeah, 221 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:38,599 Speaker 1: but the point being, you know that first year in 222 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:42,319 Speaker 1: anything is a transition. So Trevor, I think has probably 223 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 1: spent a lot of this year just trying to figure out, Okay, 224 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 1: this is what the NFL is about, this is what's different. 225 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 1: Um he said something later in the press conference that 226 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: was interesting to me where he talked about, uh and 227 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 1: I'm paraphrasing it, Okay, there are times during the rookie 228 00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 1: season that you're figuring out what's going on, You're figure 229 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 1: out what you have to do in this situation, and 230 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 1: then you sort of come out of that and you're like, Okay, 231 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 1: I'm done working on that fundamental I've I've pushed through that. 232 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 1: And then I think he was talking about the focus 233 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:17,079 Speaker 1: coming back a little bit of Okay, that was the learning. 234 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 1: That was a week where I was trying not to 235 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 1: throw an interception. Okay, I'm starting to get it a 236 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 1: little more now, and you can sort of hear that 237 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:28,200 Speaker 1: in his voice of I've I've gone through some lessons, 238 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: I've gone through some learning. Now he feels a little 239 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,080 Speaker 1: more ready to just go play with the stuff that 240 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 1: he's already learned. So you hear a lot of quarterbacks 241 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 1: talk about that. A lot of rookie quarterbacks talk about it, 242 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 1: and that's what the free stuff is. Um. It would 243 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 1: be cool in the last five games to see that 244 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 1: come to fruition and to see him play loose and 245 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 1: to do the things that he's talking about. I hope 246 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 1: that what we heard in that becomes reality. That would 247 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:59,440 Speaker 1: be cool. John, Well, I mean when I say that, 248 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 1: I mean he's been through a lot and he's learning. 249 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 1: He's taking some heat the talents there, and there have 250 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 1: been times this season, Bucky where you looked at him 251 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,680 Speaker 1: and thought, this is a kid who's playing I don't 252 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 1: say tight, but still trying to figure it out. You know, 253 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 1: it's still like you're driving on ice a little bit. 254 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 1: Don't want to make a mistake here, doing a mistake there, 255 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 1: in this, in this This was the first time today 256 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 1: that I had heard him talk about Okay, I think 257 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 1: I'm getting it a little bit. I've learned some lessons 258 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:34,200 Speaker 1: and now it's time to just go use that stuff. Yeah, John, 259 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 1: to even taking a step further. Um, I think what 260 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 1: Trevor is realizing the NFL game is so much different 261 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 1: than the college game in terms of how players and 262 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 1: coaches interact. Like, yes, there's a little subservient nature to it, 263 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 1: like when you're in college, like, hey, the coach says this, 264 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 1: I'm the player. I just go do whatever the coach says. 265 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:58,439 Speaker 1: I feel like he's kind of growing into what franchise 266 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: quarterbacks eventually do. Franchise quarterbacks. It's more of a partnership 267 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:06,239 Speaker 1: than a dictatorship from head coach there. It's a partnership 268 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 1: between the coaching staff and the quarterback to figure out 269 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,319 Speaker 1: what's best for him in the offense. And I feel 270 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 1: like Trevor is kind of looking around the league and 271 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 1: seeing how some of the top quarterbacks are playing, looking 272 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 1: at how some of the rookies are playing, particularly Mac Jones, 273 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 1: and there's a competitive street desk. Hey, man, I can 274 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 1: do the same stuff if I'm giving the freedom to 275 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 1: do that, or if I find a way to be 276 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 1: free enough to do it. I think he wants to 277 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 1: kind of let it go so we can have some 278 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 1: of the success and some others that happen. Well, he 279 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 1: can darn shirt throw three times a game. He can't 280 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 1: do that now. And and and final thing, the gun 281 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:46,240 Speaker 1: slinger thing and the playing free. JP and Buck you 282 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 1: both watched the game last week. It felt like that 283 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 1: flashed a couple of times last week where he guns 284 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 1: and passes in he just through. Uh, And it felt 285 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 1: like there were some moments there last week where he 286 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 1: just did it physically again, and Uh, maybe he's yeah, 287 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 1: I don't play too much psychoanalysis analysis, but um, maybe 288 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 1: that's playing into a little bit too. Hey, I just 289 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:17,200 Speaker 1: gotta throw the ball lay. Yeah. I think I think 290 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 1: that's some of that. And I'm sure he is probably 291 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 1: saw a council inside and outside the building, and I'm 292 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 1: sure the advice that people are saying at some point, dude, 293 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 1: hey man, just let it rip. You're good rip interceptions, interceptions, 294 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:33,920 Speaker 1: be darn just let it rip. Because what a lot 295 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: of people didn't realize about Pat mahomes first year when 296 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 1: he was on the practice field, Andy reading those guys 297 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 1: encouraged him to make every throw in the book, interceptions 298 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 1: and not so you can figure out what you can 299 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 1: and what you can do in this league. And I 300 00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 1: think there comes a point where Trevor Lawrence where hey man, 301 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 1: you don't want to make the interception or whatever, but 302 00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 1: at some point you want us figure out what can 303 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 1: I fit in and what can I do? So then 304 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 1: going into next year, I can play the game a 305 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 1: little close such to the edge of the line, we're 306 00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 1: off and running. Huddle Up with Bucky Brooks has brought 307 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 1: to you by Fields Cadillac of Jacksonville and Fields Cadillacs St. 308 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 1: Augustine Members of the Fields Auto Group. But look ahead 309 00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 1: to the Tennessee Titans when we return and huddle up 310 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: with Bucky Brooks on the Jaguars Digital Network, Jackie, everybody stood, then, 311 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 1: you know you're talking about this season that we want 312 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 1: to have the season that we haven't had yet. You 313 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 1: know we're going to continue to play everybody with the best. 314 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:33,400 Speaker 1: They're simply that. So I think the names, the accolades, 315 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 1: I think all that is out the door now is 316 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 1: at the point where you're gonna come out there and compete. 317 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 1: I don't care who they dressed up, but who's playing. 318 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 1: I don't matter. I'm gonna treating nady to that's out there. So, um, 319 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 1: haven't really even did deep into what person there though, 320 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 1: Who's They're gonna have a little bit plans have each 321 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:50,800 Speaker 1: other come back. It's yes, it's so many unanswered questions. 322 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 1: But like I said, man, we got a point now 323 00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 1: we gotta pay great football. I don't care who's out there, 324 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 1: but who's going. Let's Shakill Griffin, Jaguar's cornerback, and welcome 325 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 1: back to huddle up with Buck you Brooks on a 326 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:04,399 Speaker 1: Wednesday afternoon J P.

Titans are eight and four, 328 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 1: they're fighting for the number one seed in the a 329 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:12,680 Speaker 1: f C. They lost it the other week. They've had 330 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,400 Speaker 1: the week off on the bye week this past week. 331 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:18,639 Speaker 1: The Titans are three and oh after the bye and 332 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 1: the Mike vrabel eras head coach since eighteen, The Jaguars 333 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:27,640 Speaker 1: since eighteen are oh and six against teams coming off 334 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 1: their bye week. Trying to snap those trends this week 335 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 1: against Tennessee, a team that they haven't beaten in Nashville 336 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 1: since and a place the Jaguars have only won five 337 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:43,720 Speaker 1: times all time since n in that stadium and you're 338 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 1: looking at him on your screen right now, oh four, 339 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 1: oh five, oh seven, ten and thirteen the only five 340 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:54,400 Speaker 1: Jaguars wins at Nissan Stadium in downtown Nashville. So Buck, 341 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 1: we got that going for us, say, trying to break 342 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,200 Speaker 1: all that history this week against the team that's a 343 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 1: little deplete, Bucky. The top three yardage players on the 344 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 1: team have been out lately, including Derrick Henry, and it 345 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 1: kind of changes the way they go about things. It 346 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 1: does change the way they go about things because when 347 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 1: you don't have Derrick Henry, who is kind of the 348 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 1: centerpiece of the offense. It changes everything. And so they've 349 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 1: been having success running the ball with a hodgepodge of 350 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 1: running back. It's kind of getting it done, but it's 351 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:25,960 Speaker 1: just not the same King Henry is a difference make 352 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 1: of the best in the league. And then you don't 353 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 1: have a j Brown who will come back Julio Jones 354 00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 1: and schedule to Returnber we'll see if he plays. And 355 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,120 Speaker 1: so minus your top two receivers, your talk running back, 356 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 1: this offense doesn't look like the offense there was really 357 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 1: thriving at the beginning of the year. And then the 358 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:42,160 Speaker 1: running backs who did play two weeks ago fumble the ball. 359 00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:44,639 Speaker 1: They had a bunch of fumbles, but balls on the 360 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 1: ground all day against New England. Yeah, they ran effectively 361 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 1: that um. And and then that's just scary a little 362 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 1: bit if you're a Jaguars observer, because this team hasn't 363 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 1: stopped the run like they did early in the season. 364 00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 1: I look, it is not the same Titans team that 365 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:05,239 Speaker 1: was eight and two at one point. But the thing 366 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 1: that concerns you as a Jaguars matchup when you're trying 367 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 1: to find the matchup. They're still gonna run, They're still 368 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,400 Speaker 1: gonna be physical, it's still gonna be cold, They're still 369 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 1: gonna keep doing it and doing it, doing it. I 370 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 1: I am anxious in this game to see how the 371 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:25,879 Speaker 1: Jaguars play in the second half. Uh. Is this a 372 00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:29,000 Speaker 1: team that's going to be willing to continue to hit, 373 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:32,200 Speaker 1: to continue to play hard against a physical team. There's 374 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,440 Speaker 1: been times jp you've seen the games, there's been times 375 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 1: up there in the past where you felt like they 376 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 1: weren't willing to hit in the second half. And you 377 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 1: want to be watching for that this week because that's 378 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 1: a big storyline of me. I think it is a 379 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 1: big I think it's a big storyline, John, because here's 380 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:54,680 Speaker 1: the thing about the Tennessee Titans, their superpowers, their physicality 381 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,400 Speaker 1: and toughness. If they can make it a wreck backyard, 382 00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 1: bro Uh, the game goes there way because that's that's 383 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,239 Speaker 1: kind of like their only path to victory, even when 384 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:07,359 Speaker 1: they have all their weapons intact. They want to beat 385 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 1: you up. They want to take you to the deep water, 386 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:11,359 Speaker 1: and they want to drown you in the fourth quarter, 387 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 1: and so the Jaguars have to show that they're willing 388 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 1: to engage in that kind of battle, and a lot 389 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:20,119 Speaker 1: of times teams collapse and fold in the third and 390 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: fourth quarters because they don't want to endure that kind 391 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 1: of beat up physical session. So I happen with the 392 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:28,439 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bill, So I happened with the l A. Rams 393 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 1: dealing with the Tennessee Titans. We'll see if the Jaguars 394 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:33,960 Speaker 1: want to deal with that kind of game and the 395 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 1: challenges when you're too inten and you haven't had a 396 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:40,920 Speaker 1: lot of things go your way, something good has to 397 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,719 Speaker 1: happen early for the Jaguars to fight the good fight. 398 00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:47,960 Speaker 1: For sixty minutes, JP Bucky just dropped an analogy where 399 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 1: somebody who was being taken to the deep water and drowned. 400 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 1: I'm not I was thinking, and maybe we hang out 401 00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:00,640 Speaker 1: the senior bowl of me and but again, I'm gonna 402 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 1: have somebody else there with me. Think again, like he's 403 00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:07,440 Speaker 1: going solo. It's been a long season for but yeah, 404 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 1: he's had enough to in Tennessee. Man. Yeah, man, it's 405 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:22,200 Speaker 1: it's been bleak over here. Good guys, have a yeah, right, 406 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 1: I'll cheer you out, by the way. Weather forecast Sunday 407 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 1: in Nashville. Low of thirty, high of fifty two and sunshine. 408 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:31,440 Speaker 1: There's some rain in the forecast Saturday, so of course 409 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 1: that could slide. So not as cold as it has 410 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:36,680 Speaker 1: been over history. There, let's come back. We've got some 411 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 1: social media questions.

Yeah, depends. Let's go to social 436 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,920 Speaker 1: media questions and most people are their best on social 437 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:16,639 Speaker 1: media's Yes, yes, we know that. UM. Social media question 438 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:22,680 Speaker 1: number one today from at Ratus Johansson. What could the 439 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 1: treatment of James Robinson over the last couple of games 440 00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:26,439 Speaker 1: do for the rest of the locker room and how 441 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 1: can the coaching staff reverse any negatives from this buckey. 442 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:33,440 Speaker 1: I mean, look, it can make the rest of the 443 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 1: locker room looks out when he's at the coaching staff 444 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:37,960 Speaker 1: and just trying to figure out what's going on. Why 445 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 1: wasn't it being communicated. So it's really important that Coach 446 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 1: Meyer clears all of that up with the players and 447 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,719 Speaker 1: the Sas about a new protocol, so everyone understands how 448 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 1: those things are going to run in terms of chain 449 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:53,920 Speaker 1: of command, playing time rotations, all that that needs to 450 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 1: be cleared up. And then going forward, I think for everybody, 451 00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 1: when you're losing right now, when you have five games left, 452 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 1: I think coaches evaluating players, players are evaluating the coaches 453 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 1: trying to figure out who's going to be around going forward. 454 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 1: And so look, I think it's one of those conversations 455 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,480 Speaker 1: where coach Mike has to have a very transparent conversation 456 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:14,440 Speaker 1: with the team, the team has to be receptive, and 457 00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 1: everybody has to go on the same direction board. For Yeah, 458 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:21,920 Speaker 1: I mean it's uh, As I said earlier, clearly there 459 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,360 Speaker 1: was some level of disconnect between j Rob and the coach, 460 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 1: so clear that up not have that be for the 461 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:32,639 Speaker 1: last five games. Uh, In the NFL, there can be Uh. 462 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 1: Five weeks is a long time. I think about where 463 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 1: the Jaguars were five weeks ago. So yes, something like 464 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:44,359 Speaker 1: this can feel much different at the end of the 465 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 1: season than it does now. Let's move along. Social question 466 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 1: number two today on Twitter busy place these days that 467 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:55,000 Speaker 1: Zack Bierman, given the challenges we have with skill position players, 468 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 1: how difficult is it to assess Trevor's progress? Additionally, what 469 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 1: should we be looking for from Trevor the last quarter 470 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 1: of the season to show he's moving in the right direction. 471 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 1: It's really hard to assess whi Trevor is. I think 472 00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 1: there are a couple of different things. Um, when you're 473 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 1: evaluated looking at Trevor, you look at the natural arm talent, 474 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 1: you look at the natural ability and those things. Then 475 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:20,119 Speaker 1: what you're trying to figure out is how impact is 476 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:23,480 Speaker 1: he by the players around him? Does he have enough 477 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:25,720 Speaker 1: uh speed on the outside where he can push the 478 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 1: ball down the field and he's not pushing it because 479 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,639 Speaker 1: he doesn't have that. Can his guys consistently separate and 480 00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:33,119 Speaker 1: get open? What is he lacking? What would help him 481 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 1: get better? And then the final part of it, you're 482 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 1: looking how is the scheme helping him play the game 483 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 1: in an easier, more comfortable fashion. Are they doing things 484 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 1: for him to make it easy? And so when you 485 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 1: do all of those assessments and evaluations, first thing that 486 00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:52,160 Speaker 1: the coach has, Coach Meyer has to assess this, Okay, 487 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 1: what kind of players do we have to get around 488 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 1: him to allow him to get better? And then the 489 00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 1: other thing is what can we do schematically to maximize 490 00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:03,159 Speaker 1: this sound as a franchise quarterback. Yeah, in terms of 491 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:05,879 Speaker 1: how difficult is it, it's brutally difficult to try to 492 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:09,400 Speaker 1: figure out. Uh, he's not as accurate as he needs 493 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,920 Speaker 1: to be his decision making. I don't think it's quite 494 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:15,879 Speaker 1: as quick as it was early in the season. But 495 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 1: that also feels scumulative to me because it was quick 496 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:22,679 Speaker 1: early in the season, So that leads you to think, uh, 497 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 1: you know, not on the same page and not having 498 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 1: the weapons to go make the plays has had with 499 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 1: a you know, accumulati effect, a domino effect. I think 500 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:37,399 Speaker 1: it all ties in together, but I don't know how 501 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:41,800 Speaker 1: the coaches certainly have to assess and do the things 502 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 1: that Bucky's talking about. From an observer's point of view, 503 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 1: I think it's really difficult to truly assess where Trevor 504 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 1: Lawrence is. Right now, let's get one final social question 505 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:57,639 Speaker 1: in question three that Dandon Thomas, since the playoffs are 506 00:26:57,680 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 1: mostly out of the question, do you play the younger 507 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:08,360 Speaker 1: guys like Little Cisco and Smith? Now, yes, yes, yes, yes, 508 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:11,360 Speaker 1: and it should have happened earlier in the season. That's 509 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 1: scout guy talking Wow, that's the scouting play play the guys, 510 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 1: let him get experienced. The only way you get good 511 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 1: at football is by playing football. I don't know what 512 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:25,400 Speaker 1: we're saving them for, like playing them the last five games. 513 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:27,800 Speaker 1: I would expect to see war a little on the field. 514 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:31,000 Speaker 1: I'll expect to see Andre Cisco and any other newbie 515 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 1: that's out there. Put them on the field, because the 516 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 1: only way you're gonna know what you have and how 517 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:38,640 Speaker 1: they can get better over the offseason is you gotta 518 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:40,399 Speaker 1: get him in the game. You can't be afraid to 519 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:43,160 Speaker 1: play the young players. I'll put on my coaching hat now, Buck, 520 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:45,879 Speaker 1: because you know, the coaches feel a little differently than 521 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:49,880 Speaker 1: the scout there. Uh and I get it, but it's 522 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:53,360 Speaker 1: tough for coaches to play guys if they don't think 523 00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:55,920 Speaker 1: they're the best guy available. I'm with you on this 524 00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 1: right right now. But with five games to go, I 525 00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,040 Speaker 1: think you play the young guys. But you also know 526 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:03,639 Speaker 1: that there's that pushing poll there. You know what I 527 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:05,200 Speaker 1: would say if I was a scout in the room, 528 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:07,960 Speaker 1: I would ask the coaches, how's that working for you? 529 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,360 Speaker 1: How is it working playing those other guys playing? How's 530 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 1: he working? Was sitting in two and ten hey man 531 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,680 Speaker 1: play the young guys because we could a young guys 532 00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 1: playing is not that much of a difference. It's why 533 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 1: he's a former Scott. I think probably come back in 534 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:30,440 Speaker 1: a moment final thoughts ahead of the Jags of the Titans, 535 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,119 Speaker 1: A tuddle up with Bucky Brooks and the Jaguars Digital 536 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 1: Network Welcome back final moments of huddle up with Bucky Brooks, 537 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 1: the Jaguars and the Tennessee Titans. Ryan Tannehill the one 538 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: of the big names still available for Tennessee. Derrick Henry 539 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 1: is out. We'll see about Julio Jones, J J. Brown's 540 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 1: out well. Tannehill six and two in his career against 541 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:02,960 Speaker 1: the Jaguars with a one six team passer rating. That's 542 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 1: what this time with Miami and with Tennessee and the 543 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 1: Jags defense will try to get it going this week 544 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 1: against Tennessee, the first place team in the ANFC South 545 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:15,480 Speaker 1: and the team fighting for the number one seed. Tough 546 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 1: place to play, Bucky for this franchise. What you what 547 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 1: do you think this is going on Sunday? I think 548 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 1: it's a tough battle obviously, just because the Tennessee Titans 549 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 1: are coming off to bye week. They have a lot 550 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 1: ahead in them. Uh, they need this game because the 551 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 1: ANFC is really tightened up at the top, so they're 552 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 1: gonna be at their best. I think the thing for 553 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 1: the Jaguars is, if I'm urban, my everything is about 554 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 1: just trying to figure out a way to win the 555 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 1: first quarter, because if Jaguars can win the first quarter, 556 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,400 Speaker 1: that told give them a little shot shotow light doing 557 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 1: into the rest of the game. Right now. Look, it's 558 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 1: been tough. It's been tough because defensively, they don't believe 559 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,440 Speaker 1: in the offense. The offense hasn't scored enough points to 560 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:55,880 Speaker 1: kind of keep them in games. I think everything has 561 00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 1: to be pull out all the stops in the first 562 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,320 Speaker 1: quarter to see if you can get the game to 563 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 1: the second quarter, and maybe then at halftime you have 564 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 1: a chance, and then you just kind of try to 565 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:08,160 Speaker 1: figure out a way to finish the game. Yeah. I mean, 566 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:13,720 Speaker 1: they haven't led since uh beating the Bills. I believe 567 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,960 Speaker 1: in the last four games they haven't led. Uh, They've 568 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 1: trailed by double digits in the first half of each 569 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 1: of those games. Fought back twice, but coming back from 570 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 1: double digits, it's a tough way to make a living, 571 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:31,719 Speaker 1: and uh so I agree with But see if somehow 572 00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:33,400 Speaker 1: you can be in the game in the second quarter 573 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 1: and then see how your defense is really playing. People 574 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:41,239 Speaker 1: criticizing the defense right now, I wrote on on Sunday night, 575 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:43,239 Speaker 1: this didn't feel like a defense to me the other 576 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:45,800 Speaker 1: day that had quit. It felt like a defense that 577 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,400 Speaker 1: did all its could all it could and then there 578 00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:51,760 Speaker 1: was nothing left to give. Give them a little more 579 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 1: to play for and second half and see what happened. 580 00:30:53,360 --> 00:31:00,240 Speaker 1: It would be nice, Bucky, and enjoy your latte. I'm 581 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 1: looking forward. I'm looking forward to it. We'll talk to 582 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:05,720 Speaker 1: you soon. Man, Bucky Brooks out of here.
