Speaker 1: It is Thursday, October one. This is Jaguars Happy Hour,
Speaker 1: and now a guy who's never on the injury list
Speaker 1: yet still remains questionable j Peace Shadrack. I think we're
Speaker 1: all kind of banged up at this point in the
Speaker 1: season somehow, someway. Welcome in Jaguars Happy Hour on this Thursday,
Speaker 1: and Happy October. We have made it to October. Yes, indeed,
Speaker 1: we've got plenty to get to on the show today.
Speaker 1: Jaguars Bengals preview. In week four, the Jacks had to
Speaker 1: Cincinnati on the banks of the Ohio River at Paul
Speaker 1: Brown Stadium for this week's game. Will preview the matchup
Speaker 1: and should be a good matchup. We'll see um Joe
Speaker 1: Burrow on the other side. The defense needs a faster start,
Speaker 1: to say the least. We'll see how they can get
Speaker 1: that done. Offensive consistency a little bit of an issue certainly.
Speaker 1: Last equ we'll hear from the quarterback today James Robinson,
Speaker 1: who got a legal award today. Tony was Selli joins
Speaker 1: us at four thirty and the Titans Steelers situation. They
Speaker 1: have postponed that game this week to a later date
Speaker 1: to be named because of COVID nine team positive tests
Speaker 1: will break that all down and discuss Thursday Night Football Tonight.
Speaker 1: Jeff Logoman from his home studio joining us. Happy October Logs,
Speaker 1: We're finally here. I love October, you know, and in
Speaker 1: in perfect fashion, we had a nice little cool weather snap,
Speaker 1: you know, to kind of bring us into the month
Speaker 1: of October. Doesn't get any better than that, it does not.
Speaker 1: That means what dear seasons around the corner? Is that right? Uh? Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's always a good thing. Yeah, I mean, I cannot lie.
Speaker 1: But but most importantly, it's not just dear season, JP.
Speaker 1: This is football weather at its best. When you wake
Speaker 1: up in the morning, it's you know, sixty degrees fifty
Speaker 1: five degrees, and most people that are probably listening from
Speaker 1: North Dakota or Minnesota going, what are you talking about?
Speaker 1: You know, football weather when you wake up and it's
Speaker 1: twenty and the daytime hives into forty. Well, in North Florida,
Speaker 1: that's not how it worked, you know. We like to
Speaker 1: see it about fifty degrees when we wake up and
Speaker 1: daytime highs around seventy. But it's absolutely football weather, JP.
Speaker 1: We'll take it, and we'll see if the Jaguars can
Speaker 1: get on the practice field this week and enjoy that weather,
Speaker 1: get ready for this week's game and logs we touched
Speaker 1: I touched on at the start of the show. Here.
Speaker 1: The defense needs a faster start. It's been a talking
Speaker 1: point really the last two weeks, after giving up touchdowns
Speaker 1: in the opening drive week one, week two, and then
Speaker 1: three straight touchdown drives to open week three on Thursday
Speaker 1: night a week and go from tonight? How do they
Speaker 1: do that? Is it? Is it a mentality? Is it
Speaker 1: just playing better early in the game? How does the
Speaker 1: defense start faster and get off the field. Isn't it
Speaker 1: kind of fitting that we start with a faster start
Speaker 1: by the defense here an happy hour? I mean, right,
Speaker 1: I mean that's the first topic. I mean, you know,
Speaker 1: and just like us, okay, if you're having a problem
Speaker 1: with a fast start, then you start working on having
Speaker 1: a better start and you can do that in practice,
Speaker 1: you know, as as coach Marone I'm sure has been
Speaker 1: doing this week. You have to have a practice that
Speaker 1: has better periods early in practice. From the period one
Speaker 1: in period two, you're simulating a faster starting the game. Boys,
Speaker 1: we gotta have a faster starting game. We're gonna start
Speaker 1: right here with a faster start to this practice. And
Speaker 1: I think that's how you do it. You create awareness
Speaker 1: to it. And because it's not a matter of okay,
Speaker 1: guys aren't ready to play, or guys just you know, okay,
Speaker 1: we gotta get warmed up. No, I mean you warmed up,
Speaker 1: You got you got pregame warm up. You got all
Speaker 1: the ability in the world to get ready to play
Speaker 1: a football game and get ready for the speed of
Speaker 1: the game. So you've just got to be able to
Speaker 1: change your mindset. That's all of it. It's a mindset change.
Speaker 1: And I don't want to hear any excuses. Oh, this
Speaker 1: is young football team. They need to learn how to
Speaker 1: start fast. No, if you if you create an awareness
Speaker 1: for it, and they're accustomed to having a fast start,
Speaker 1: they're customed starting faster and practice than they will have
Speaker 1: a fast starting game. And here's the other thing, JP,
Speaker 1: I'm so tired of hearing about should the Jaguars defer
Speaker 1: or should they take the ball off to start a game?
Speaker 1: And that will make all the difference in the world.
Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? I mean, are we really talking
Speaker 1: about changing the destiny of a game by either deferring
Speaker 1: or taking the ball. I mean, come on, that's you know,
Speaker 1: for ESPN on Monday Night football. That should be the ultimate.
Speaker 1: Come on, man, come on, man. Doesn't matter the offense
Speaker 1: out there or the defense out there. You play ball
Speaker 1: and you start better, and I don't care. I don't
Speaker 1: care if you to start with a one on one
Speaker 1: drill between coaches. You know, it doesn't matter. It's all
Speaker 1: about starting fast, weather, it's all offense, deepen, special team
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. Okay, I could tell yes, it's been a
Speaker 1: talking point this week, but I'm kind of with you though.
Speaker 1: Like you, if you're a head coach or a coach
Speaker 1: in the league, you've had this philosophy probably for a
Speaker 1: long time about getting the ball last in the first
Speaker 1: half and then starting the second half with the football
Speaker 1: and you kind of steal two possessions that way. Why
Speaker 1: would you go change that now? Is a talking point
Speaker 1: because because wait, wait, wait, wait, what do you mean
Speaker 1: steal possessions? What are you talking if you if you
Speaker 1: defer that means you can try to play for the
Speaker 1: last possession of the first half, get points and then
Speaker 1: open the second half. I don't I don't buy that
Speaker 1: argument either. Okay From from a coach okay. And the
Speaker 1: reason I say I don't buy that argument is is
Speaker 1: who's to say that you're going to have the last
Speaker 1: possession of the first half or not? Right? I mean,
Speaker 1: are we assuming that, okay, because you differ and the
Speaker 1: opponent starts on offense, that timing wise, you're gonna always
Speaker 1: have the last possession of the first half. No, No,
Speaker 1: it doesn't mean that, you know, so I don't buy
Speaker 1: that argument from a coaching standpoint either. You know, you
Speaker 1: work to have the last possession of the first half
Speaker 1: if you manage the clock correctly and your defense gets
Speaker 1: stopped and your offense possesses the ball and all those
Speaker 1: things happen. But sometimes I don't care if you do
Speaker 1: everything else else perfectly, it doesn't work out that way,
Speaker 1: you know, So, so I don't buy that, Okay, we're
Speaker 1: gonna defer, because then that means that we're gonna we're
Speaker 1: gonna end up having the last possession of the first
Speaker 1: half and then we get the first possession of the
Speaker 1: second half as well, because it doesn't always work out
Speaker 1: that way, and to assume that it will, I think
Speaker 1: is is ridiculous in my opinion. And so for me,
Speaker 1: what you want to do is defer take the ball.
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. And with you, if you're the Jaguars
Speaker 1: right now and you've been deferring and it hasn't been
Speaker 1: working out, your defense is not starting out, then just
Speaker 1: change it up, change it up, or coach or football
Speaker 1: team to do better on that side of the ball defensively,
Speaker 1: you know. So No, it's it's a it's kind of
Speaker 1: like a dog chasing its tail. JP. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: it's it's just endless. It's mindless, and you just got
Speaker 1: to play better football. You've gotta make more plays happen
Speaker 1: early part of the game, whether it's offense or defense
Speaker 1: or special teams. That's right because at some point you're
Speaker 1: gonna have the ball. At some point they're gonna have
Speaker 1: the ball, and you're just gonna play football. Let's let's
Speaker 1: get to make more plays, make more plays. Better, be better.
Speaker 1: That's it, you know, work to be better, come out
Speaker 1: of practice. It wouldn't have better in period one. It
Speaker 1: would help on defense to get better if they could
Speaker 1: find the pass rush on defense, they haven't had a
Speaker 1: lot of that this year and really not much of
Speaker 1: it at all. But this is a Bengals offensive line
Speaker 1: that has given up fourteen sacks this year. That's the
Speaker 1: most of any quarterback in the league. On Joe Burrow,
Speaker 1: he's been hit thirty one times, including eighteen quarterback hits
Speaker 1: last week. It kind of feels like this is one
Speaker 1: of those matchups that the Jaguars, Hey, this is the
Speaker 1: week to to try to get right. We heard from
Speaker 1: Josh Allen today Jaguars defensive end, and he's ready to
Speaker 1: get things going on the defensive line this week. I'm
Speaker 1: not really worried about what everybody else is doing because
Speaker 1: everybody's gonna play different, everybody's schemes different. So I'm worried
Speaker 1: about how we prepare and how we're gonna come execute. Uh.
Speaker 1: So I know we got to do our thing, uh
Speaker 1: this weekend. Um. I know they have given up a
Speaker 1: lot of pressures, which is, you know a good sign
Speaker 1: for us, but you know we still have to do jolly.
Speaker 1: Still gotta get up the ball. We still got a
Speaker 1: respips as much as we as much as we can
Speaker 1: and get them into situations where we can be able
Speaker 1: to rush the past as much as we want. So alright, als,
Speaker 1: obviously it's a defensive front thing, but it's a statistic
Speaker 1: up there. It's a full defensive issue. If you ask
Speaker 1: Doug Moron and Todd Wash there has to be a
Speaker 1: little bit of coverage out there. So the quarterbacks not
Speaker 1: getting rid of it in the first or second read. Yeah, there,
Speaker 1: there's there's no doubt JP. But but let's put things
Speaker 1: in perspective here a little bit. Everybody is just saying, Okay,
Speaker 1: the Bengals, they've given up fourteen sacks, which is the
Speaker 1: worst in the league. They must be the worst team
Speaker 1: in the league at protecting the quarterback. Well, here's a
Speaker 1: little doser reality for you. They gave up eight sacks
Speaker 1: against the Philadelphia Eagle. Okay, so prior to that game,
Speaker 1: they were giving up sick right, I mean, pretty simple math.
Speaker 1: There are three a game, three in a first week,
Speaker 1: three in a second week. If it was an average, well,
Speaker 1: the Jaguars have given up ten. So they were giving
Speaker 1: up that amount or basically the same type of numbers
Speaker 1: in the first three games. They had a bad game
Speaker 1: against the Philadelphia Eagle and they allowed eight sacks in
Speaker 1: that ball game. So would you like to have pressure
Speaker 1: on the quarterback? Absolutely? Do the Cincinnati Bengals have issues
Speaker 1: with their offensive line. Absolutely, They have what is essentially
Speaker 1: a rookie left tackle and he is playing for the
Speaker 1: very first time. In Jonah william he has virtually no experience.
Speaker 1: Many people thought coming out that he should not be
Speaker 1: a left tackle. Many people thought that he should be
Speaker 1: an interior offensive lineman. The right guard, Fred Johnson I
Speaker 1: believe his name is, had some issues in the game
Speaker 1: against the Eagles, and he was benched and then he
Speaker 1: put another guy in there. So yes, you would like
Speaker 1: to think that the Jaguars can get some pass rush
Speaker 1: and successful pass rush against the Cincinnati Bengals team. But
Speaker 1: the thing I think that impresses me the most is
Speaker 1: that even though that Joe Burrow got pressured in this
Speaker 1: ball game, even though he took a pretty good cheap
Speaker 1: shot from former Jaguar Malik Jackson in that game against
Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles, it didn't change it. It didn't change it.
Speaker 1: He didn't get skittish, he didn't get scared, he didn't
Speaker 1: start flinching in the pocket. And I give the rookie
Speaker 1: quarterback a lot of credit for that. And I think
Speaker 1: the Bengals will be better also if they run the
Speaker 1: ball better with a very good running back in Joe mixing.
Speaker 1: I think their coach right now is a little pass happy,
Speaker 1: probably too much for a young quarterback Joe Burston the
Speaker 1: ball forty one times in three games. He's a rookie.
Speaker 1: I don't care if he's the first pick overall in
Speaker 1: the draft or not. He's still rookie. You can't put
Speaker 1: that kind of pressure on him. So I think it's
Speaker 1: gonna be an interesting ball game. And then so you
Speaker 1: go back to the original question. You want to see
Speaker 1: the Jaguars pressure of the quarterback. Sure, okay, but right
Speaker 1: now the Jaguars aren't rushing the passer very well up front. Uh.
Speaker 1: In this pass game against the Minai Miami Dolphins, they
Speaker 1: didn't cover particularly well. And that's where Doug Moron is
Speaker 1: talking about you got to have both. And it's true,
Speaker 1: rush and cover go hand in hand. So you gotta
Speaker 1: cover well to be able to have time to rush
Speaker 1: the passer. You also have to rush the passer to
Speaker 1: be able to give you better coverage in the back
Speaker 1: end to have arrant throws which lead interceptions and takeaways
Speaker 1: and such. So it does go hand in hand. JP
Speaker 1: and I think the coverage can be better. But the
Speaker 1: one thing that can tearned me. Concerns me is can
Speaker 1: the pass rush be better? I think that's a big
Speaker 1: question mark in my mind, because pass rush you've got
Speaker 1: to have the guys to do it, and right now
Speaker 1: there has been a lot of guys that have contributed
Speaker 1: to pass rush in the past that are no longer here,
Speaker 1: and the guys that you have aren't playing particularly well.
Speaker 1: So can you generate pass rush just because it's the
Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals and they gave up fourteen sacks, not necessarily,
Speaker 1: but I hope that they can because it certainly would help.
Speaker 1: And having success against the Bengals football team that is
Speaker 1: going to be hungry for a win, no doubt about that.
Speaker 1: And you know you mentioned the burrow and being a
Speaker 1: little pass happy on the offensive side up there will
Speaker 1: They've got the weapons outside too. They've got multiple receivers
Speaker 1: that have thousand yards seasons under their belt. Of course, A. J.
Speaker 1: Green is still there. He's back on the field this season.
Speaker 1: He missed twenty games in a row from through the
Speaker 1: entire it's twenty nineteen season. First was a toe issue
Speaker 1: and then the last year had an ankle issue and
Speaker 1: missed all of last season. He's back. He hasn't really
Speaker 1: exploded yet. I think the longest passed to a wide
Speaker 1: receiver this year if there's twenty five yards. Uh, Tyler
Speaker 1: Boyd is there who can really really get some things done.
Speaker 1: He's had a good start to the season so far.
Speaker 1: And yeah, that's the thing you mentioned mixing, But I
Speaker 1: think the narrative outside of you know, the talking points,
Speaker 1: outside the offense so far, Nixon hasn't really been in
Speaker 1: the conversation. He hasn't had a breakout game yet because
Speaker 1: they have been throwing the ball so much. He is capable, though,
Speaker 1: and that's why they paid him forty eight million dollars. Well,
Speaker 1: give him the ball, I mean, give him the ball more,
Speaker 1: you know, when when it's meaningful, you know. And and
Speaker 1: to go back to the longest past, Jevanni Bernard has
Speaker 1: a forty plush yard catch that he had against the Eagles,
Speaker 1: by the way, which is their longest completion of the year.
Speaker 1: And A. J. Green is is a non factor. I mean,
Speaker 1: who would have thought that the great A J. Green
Speaker 1: who we all compared kind of a Jay Green and
Speaker 1: Julio Jones. And the argument always kind of persisted, who's
Speaker 1: the better wide receiver? Well, right now it's Julio Jones,
Speaker 1: and Julio Jones has been a little bit beat up,
Speaker 1: but A J. Green has has not really done much
Speaker 1: in the last couple of years. You know. The the
Speaker 1: guy that that I think that I I would be
Speaker 1: more fear fearful of is Boyd or Tay or even Higgins.
Speaker 1: With the Cincinnati Bengals, I mean, they have a very
Speaker 1: talented group of wide receivers. Now it hurts them that
Speaker 1: they lost a tight end going a c l That
Speaker 1: hurts a little bit. But Giovanni Bernard, who I just
Speaker 1: mentioned about having that long catch, He's a very good
Speaker 1: passing type down back. And then those three receivers that
Speaker 1: I mentioned besides A. J. Green, they're pretty good now.
Speaker 1: And uh, and I think this is gonna be a
Speaker 1: pretty stiff challenge for Jaguars defense because Doug's talked. Doug
Speaker 1: talked about stressing coverage to get better as pass rushers.
Speaker 1: This is gonna be a big challenge in coverage this
Speaker 1: week because they are big, uh and they can run
Speaker 1: uh and uh and I think uh some of them
Speaker 1: are are capable big plays. I mean, ap remember Audent
Speaker 1: taking the game that he had last year or and
Speaker 1: uh it was right prior to the Jaguars playing him,
Speaker 1: and he was an absolute monster and he has the
Speaker 1: capability of being a big time player. So and in fact,
Speaker 1: when I was watching film of on tape for the
Speaker 1: very first time, I remember going, man at a J Green,
Speaker 1: He's looking good, But it wasn't a j Green. It
Speaker 1: was all very similar number right, So, plenty of options
Speaker 1: for Joe Burrow and they are leaning on those heavily
Speaker 1: early in the season. Bengals looking for their first win
Speaker 1: and O two and one started the season. The Jags
Speaker 1: have dropped two in a row. They'll try to snap
Speaker 1: that skid. Coming up this Sunday. We're back in a
Speaker 1: moment and we'll flip it around to the Jaguars offense.
Speaker 1: We'll hear from Jay Gruden, Jaguars offensive coordinator, about missing
Speaker 1: DJ Chark last week and how it changed some things

Speaker 1: He's usually a guy we want to look to in

Speaker 1: one matchup player and not having him available kind of
Speaker 1: hurt us. And we had a lot of formations and
Speaker 1: plays designed for him, and we didn't really know until
Speaker 1: Wednesday afternoon, late afternoon that he wasn't gonna be available
Speaker 1: to us, which really it's hard to change your game
Speaker 1: plan totally from Wednesday afternoon to Thursday night unfortunately, so
Speaker 1: that had a good impact, but we're not gonna use
Speaker 1: that excuse. Other guys have to step up um, and
Speaker 1: unfortunately we didn't do a good job of that. But
Speaker 1: but DJ is definitely a guy that, uh, anytime he's
Speaker 1: not in a game, you're gonna miss them for sure.
Speaker 1: It's Jake Gruden, Jaguars offensive coordinator earlier this week. D
Speaker 1: J Shark absent from the game last week with an injury.
Speaker 1: Welcome back, Jaguars Happy Our j P, Shadrick, Jeff Lackerman,
Speaker 1: Tony Boselli's coming up at four thirty and then at
Speaker 1: five o'clock the Doug Morone Show on the Jaguars Radio Network.
Speaker 1: I found that interesting logs that they had all these
Speaker 1: plans in case DJ was ready to go, but they
Speaker 1: found out for sure Wednesday afternoon before Thursday night game.
Speaker 1: Everything is compressed anyway in a short week. But I
Speaker 1: kind of threw a little bit of a wrench in
Speaker 1: the plans. It felt like, yeah, and I don't don't
Speaker 1: think he says, you don't want to use that as
Speaker 1: an excuse, but he but he kind of did. Uh uh.
Speaker 1: I mean for me, if you have one guy that
Speaker 1: gets hurt in practice and all of a sudden, now
Speaker 1: you say you can't adjust a game plan, I mean
Speaker 1: I think that you've got to have another guy step
Speaker 1: up and just fill that role. I mean, look, it's
Speaker 1: not easy to fill the role of d J Charlie
Speaker 1: because he's a he's a marvelous player, and there's not
Speaker 1: any other player I don't think on the Jaguars roster
Speaker 1: that can make the type of plays that DJ does.
Speaker 1: But you've got a good group of wide receivers, okay
Speaker 1: against the Miami Dolphins team that really struggled in the
Speaker 1: prior weeks and coverage and didn't rush the passer particularly well,
Speaker 1: you know, so it's not like, Okay, all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: you lost the only guy that you had that could
Speaker 1: beat the Miami Dolphins and man covered. You know, there
Speaker 1: was opportunities lost in that ballgame for other in multiple areas.
Speaker 1: Chris Connley had a couple of drops. Chris Connelly also
Speaker 1: had a penalty on an offensive pass interference. He Mrs Black.
Speaker 1: He didn't have a very particularly good game. And then
Speaker 1: you also have a quarterback who aborted some plays a
Speaker 1: little bit early and also had some one on one
Speaker 1: opportunities that he either just didn't see or didn't choose
Speaker 1: to throw at, you know. And the Miami Dolphins, given credit,
Speaker 1: they had been showing almost i don't want to say all,
Speaker 1: but the highest percentage of man coverage in the league
Speaker 1: up until this game on Thursday night, and they came
Speaker 1: out and they played some zone, you know, So give
Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins some credit, and that they don't want to
Speaker 1: say caught the Jaguars off guard, but they changed up
Speaker 1: some of the things maybe that the Jaguars were expecting
Speaker 1: to see. And as an offense, you've got to adjust.
Speaker 1: You've got ad just on Wednesday, when you find out
Speaker 1: that DJ Chark is not going to be available, you
Speaker 1: still got a couple of days to be able to
Speaker 1: tweak a few things in the game plan. And then
Speaker 1: in the game part when you find out that they're
Speaker 1: playing a little bit of his own. You've got to
Speaker 1: be able to adjust. You credit the Miami Dolphins, they
Speaker 1: played a good football game. Jaguars had a great opportunity
Speaker 1: on the national stage and they just didn't play very well.
Speaker 1: And I think the one thing about not playing well
Speaker 1: on a Thursday night JP, that's simmers on, you know,
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's ten days. You've got to sit
Speaker 1: there and and chew on that. And so if we
Speaker 1: don't see a motivated football team going to Cincinnati, I
Speaker 1: would be shocked. One name you mentioned there was Gardner
Speaker 1: Minshew and maybe aborting some plays early, getting out of
Speaker 1: the pocket, running away from things. And I asked Gardner
Speaker 1: about that this week, the Jaguars quarterback about pocket presence,
Speaker 1: and it's a work in progress. It's one of those
Speaker 1: things kind of for me, the rule of time I've
Speaker 1: always had is like, once you get through your progression,
Speaker 1: you know, then you look to make something happen. Um.
Speaker 1: You know, if you're skipping reads and getting out earlier,
Speaker 1: then that's an issue. And then sometimes you know, it
Speaker 1: just works out and then it's all good, and then
Speaker 1: it doesn't work out and it's all bad. So you
Speaker 1: know that's a probably you know us as we're working
Speaker 1: on you know, week by week, week to week, and
Speaker 1: you know, is it something that a young quarterback can
Speaker 1: improve upon as this goes along too? Does your feel
Speaker 1: improve in a pocket? I'm uh, it sounds like it's
Speaker 1: something that can. According to Gardner their lives, well, it can.
Speaker 1: And I think part of it is on Gardner and
Speaker 1: that he has to learn to trust the pocket. He
Speaker 1: has to have a better feel for when he needs
Speaker 1: to stay in and then also when he needs to abort.
Speaker 1: The other thing I think or category that it falls on,
Speaker 1: is the offensive line. I don't think they've played very
Speaker 1: well on Thursday night JP. I don't think the tackles
Speaker 1: played well. Uh, in a game in which the Miami
Speaker 1: Dolphins had Agba and and Shack Lawson. Who are I mean,
Speaker 1: they're okay players, but they're not great players. I think
Speaker 1: the guy that they're gonna see this week, but the
Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals, the two of them are going to be
Speaker 1: better than what they saw on Thursday night. And in
Speaker 1: the Jaguars tackles I didn't think played very well. Will
Speaker 1: Richardson didn't play well when he came in for the
Speaker 1: ejective Cam Robinson. Uh here, here's the one thing I
Speaker 1: think that that I'll bring up JP. You know, at
Speaker 1: right tackle, Juwan Taylor arguably was considered for the Jaguars
Speaker 1: to be drafted in the first round of last year's draft.
Speaker 1: But then all of a sudden, josh Adam was available
Speaker 1: and like, whoa wait a minute, we got a great
Speaker 1: player here, we gotta take him. But there was conversation
Speaker 1: I guess that Juwan Taylor was going to be their pick. Well,
Speaker 1: if you think he's that talented, which I think he is,
Speaker 1: the expectation for him it's got to be higher, you know,
Speaker 1: because he didn't play at the level that he needs
Speaker 1: to be playing at. I mean, I expect Juwan Taylor
Speaker 1: to be in his second year to be a borderline
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl caliber player. That's what I expected of him.
Speaker 1: I think he has that level of talent, and the
Speaker 1: way he a this past game to where he gave
Speaker 1: up some on the inside rush, where he gave up
Speaker 1: some on the outside, that's just not good enough for
Speaker 1: a Juan Taylor. I mean, it might be good enough
Speaker 1: for some other right tackles in the league, but the
Speaker 1: expectations for in my mind for Juwan and should be
Speaker 1: for in their minds, should be much higher because he's
Speaker 1: capable of being better. And then with Will and Cam
Speaker 1: at the left tackle spot, Will Richardson did not play
Speaker 1: at all very well at all once he came in
Speaker 1: and Gardner was running for his life a little bit.
Speaker 1: So the offensive line has to do a better job
Speaker 1: to help Gardner trust the pocket to not abort it.
Speaker 1: I thought in the in the game against the Miami Dolphins,
Speaker 1: they gave him reason to think that he needed to
Speaker 1: do abort early in some situation. And they've got to
Speaker 1: They've got to work better and play better so that
Speaker 1: Gardner can continue to develop and feel comfortable in the
Speaker 1: pocket and abort less. One of the positive notes on
Speaker 1: offense certainly this entire season so far is the play
Speaker 1: of undrafted rookie running back James Robinson. Three thirty nine
Speaker 1: scrimmage yards. It's an NFL record through three games for
Speaker 1: an undrafted player in his career. Is fantastic, and today
Speaker 1: he was named the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Month
Speaker 1: of September. Fantastic accolades for Robinson, and he spoke with
Speaker 1: the media today and you know what, he's gonna keep
Speaker 1: on working. Um. I like to go about it like
Speaker 1: I don't want to be surprised by anything that I do,
Speaker 1: because then for me, I want to go out there
Speaker 1: and play the same or even better every time and
Speaker 1: helping out the team and just playing my role and
Speaker 1: doing my job and helping my teammates out. Now, of course,
Speaker 1: he's a piece out of the backfield in the passing game.
Speaker 1: Two has been at least early in this season, contributing
Speaker 1: to those scrimmage yards. But there's moments where he's been
Speaker 1: able to run the bowl very effectively. Jake Gruden said that,
Speaker 1: you know, he maybe had come off the run a
Speaker 1: little bit early on Thursday night they were down in
Speaker 1: the game, and and Gruden put that on him and
Speaker 1: his play calling. So if they can get that run
Speaker 1: established and give Robinson the rock logs, that's It's always
Speaker 1: been a pretty good strategy, at least earlier this season. Absolutely,
Speaker 1: and uh and and I agree with Jay that he
Speaker 1: probably didn't stick with the run early in the ballgame,
Speaker 1: But I mean, I also understand it. I mean, holy cow,
Speaker 1: your defense is just not stopping anybody, and the Miami
Speaker 1: Dolphins are are making a track meet out of it,
Speaker 1: and so you're trying to keep up, You're trying to
Speaker 1: make something happen. You're trying to generate a little momentum,
Speaker 1: you're trying to generate a little positivity. And big chunk
Speaker 1: plays can do that for a football team and get
Speaker 1: them fired up. And uh, typically the big chunk plays
Speaker 1: come the passing game. So I think that any quarterback
Speaker 1: needs a great ground game. That they're talking about the
Speaker 1: same thing in Cincinnati, and that they need a good
Speaker 1: running game out of Joe Mixon to take some pressure
Speaker 1: off of the quarterback, to allow them to have more
Speaker 1: balance and to make the offensive line better because they've
Speaker 1: got more manageable third downs. But you know, for for
Speaker 1: the Jaguars offensive pass game, I mean, it just it
Speaker 1: wasn't very good except for James Robinson. I mean, credit
Speaker 1: to him. He totally deserves the NFL Rookie of the Month.
Speaker 1: He has done something that northern rookie has done before.
Speaker 1: He has been nothing short of fantastic. Every week he
Speaker 1: shows something that just makes you go wold and uh.
Speaker 1: And that's credit to him, undrafted guy, and also jp
Speaker 1: of credit to the coaching staff because you know what
Speaker 1: it took some courage to do what they did and
Speaker 1: releasing the fourth fourth overall, picking the draft and Leonard
Speaker 1: Fournette and going with an undrafted, undrafted rookie from Illinois State.
Speaker 1: I mean, everybody was kind of sitting there going, oh,
Speaker 1: they're they're tanking, right. I mean, that was the conversation
Speaker 1: when they when they got rid of Leonard Fournette. The
Speaker 1: Jaguars are thanking. Well, guess what, They've got a really
Speaker 1: good back and James Robinson. Oh, by the way, he
Speaker 1: was the NFL Rookie of the Month, you know, so
Speaker 1: credit to him, credited to coaching staff, And yes, they
Speaker 1: need to get them more involved if they can. But
Speaker 1: at the same token, you don't want to make it
Speaker 1: try to make it a one man show. You know.
Speaker 1: Seventeen touches last week, nine yards and two touchdowns. He
Speaker 1: was marvelous and in JP I think the one thing
Speaker 1: that impresses me about him his vision is is second
Speaker 1: to none. Uh. He just doesn't waste any movement because
Speaker 1: his vision is so good. And backs that typically have
Speaker 1: great vision can make a lot of things happen, whether
Speaker 1: it be in the passing game or in the running game.
Speaker 1: And I think it's it's it's probably gonna be hard
Speaker 1: for Terror Robisky the running back coach. You know, they've
Speaker 1: got Chris Thompson on board, and they brought Chris Thompson
Speaker 1: on board to be a third down back. But when
Speaker 1: you watch James Robinson and you watch him as a
Speaker 1: as a receiver out of the backfield, you go, well,
Speaker 1: wait a minute. You know, we'll give let Chris Thompson
Speaker 1: get a few refs, but only just a spell James,
Speaker 1: because I think James is shown he's just so explosive
Speaker 1: and he has his ability to make something always positive happen.
Speaker 1: It's there's a long season of course ahead of us,
Speaker 1: so that as a fantastic start for the undrafted rookie.
Speaker 1: And yes, that the scouting staff unearthed the gym. And
Speaker 1: as you said, the coaching staff and and personnel folks, whoa, whoa, Well,
Speaker 1: wait a minute, JP, The one thing you gotta remember now,
Speaker 1: you say the scouting staff unearthed Jim, you know it did. Uh,
Speaker 1: no doubt, there's no doubt. I mean, first of all,
Speaker 1: give the Jaguars credit for for I mean, but here's
Speaker 1: the reality. If they thought he was that big of
Speaker 1: a gel, don't you might think that they would have
Speaker 1: drafted him, all right and fair enough, so I look,
Speaker 1: I mean I give him credit for first signing the
Speaker 1: young man. Okay, but uh, you know it's just like
Speaker 1: the Patriot. Okay. Oh, they did such a great job
Speaker 1: of getting Tom Brady in the sixth round. They are
Speaker 1: the only ones that knew, well they drafted him in
Speaker 1: the sixth round. If they knew that he was gonna
Speaker 1: be that good, do you think they would have waited
Speaker 1: until the sixth round to draft him? No? Right, well
Speaker 1: they're finding out now, let's put it that way. Let's
Speaker 1: come back in a moment. Tony Vasselli joining us will
Speaker 1: continue the conversation. Jags Bengals coming up in week four.

Speaker 1: this year. In free agency, he joined the Jaguars. Welcome back,
Speaker 1: Jaguars Happy Hour, j P Shadrick, Jeff Logerman, Tony Basselli
Speaker 1: joining us now for the last half hour of the program.
Speaker 1: The part we missed there was he said, you know,
Speaker 1: I think I talked to Gardner and I think what
Speaker 1: I'd like to have twenty targets this week gets the Bengals.
Speaker 1: They kind of set a tongue in cheek there, but
Speaker 1: it's always good to go back and see your former team. Tony.
Speaker 1: What's up? How you doing? Man? What I'm good? Are
Speaker 1: you guys doing? We're hanging in there. Week four Jags
Speaker 1: Bengals game. The Jags need, certainly this week after back
Speaker 1: to back losing results. There, Um, you know, we we've
Speaker 1: touched on a few different things in the first half hour, Tony,
Speaker 1: but the fast start defense and all that. Logs is
Speaker 1: not talking about the coin toss or any of that
Speaker 1: mess anymore. You gotta go play football no matter who
Speaker 1: gets the ball first, second, third, fourth. Well, he's right,
Speaker 1: because you don't control the coin toss. It's a proposition
Speaker 1: where they're gonna lose it, win or lose. And so
Speaker 1: you know, we've won the first three weeks, and we've
Speaker 1: deferred and we've started slow, and you know, I think
Speaker 1: Doug probably says, you know, I want to get the
Speaker 1: ball first. Well, if Cincinnati wins the toss and they
Speaker 1: want the ball first, it doesn't matter what you want.
Speaker 1: You gotta go play and you gotta get out there
Speaker 1: and get it done. And this team has to start faster. Um.
Speaker 1: I know this week a lot of the fans and
Speaker 1: and are saying, okay, we can get right, get healthy.
Speaker 1: At Cincinnati. They're not very good and all the different things.
Speaker 1: But I don't know about you, Jeffrey. I've watched them twice. Um,
Speaker 1: he turned on the tape. They got an explosive offense
Speaker 1: and they can hurt you a quarterback. They got a
Speaker 1: group of wide receivers that are really good, I think,
Speaker 1: and a young quarterback that does not look like he's
Speaker 1: a young quarterback, and he's a tough guy. I think
Speaker 1: he probably showed a lot of his teammates when he
Speaker 1: took that hit from Malik Jackson. And I think that's
Speaker 1: probably the most way that probably the most way, the
Speaker 1: easiest way you can impress your teammates is showing your
Speaker 1: toughness at the quarterback position. I think he did that
Speaker 1: with that hit that he took from the leak. But
Speaker 1: here's the other thing. And Tony, you've you've watched him twice,
Speaker 1: you were able to work one of their games, and
Speaker 1: you watch the film this past week of the Philadelphia Eagles.
Speaker 1: They've been in three ball games, and and I'm talking
Speaker 1: they've been in three ball games. They could have won
Speaker 1: any of those three of those games. And with the
Speaker 1: young quarterback at the home who was throwing the ball
Speaker 1: hundred forty one times, that's a lot. So if allso
Speaker 1: they can find a little bit of balance to take
Speaker 1: a little pressure off of their offensive line, it's gonna
Speaker 1: make Joe Burrow even that much better. And it's gonna
Speaker 1: make it a pretty scary situation. Oh, Jeff, you're right.
Speaker 1: And you look at the Eagles game last week. They
Speaker 1: sack them eight times, I think had eighteen hits. I
Speaker 1: mean something just. I mean, the guy took a beating,
Speaker 1: still threw over three hundred yards and was in the game. Um,
Speaker 1: And we've chronicled and talked about that. The pass rush
Speaker 1: is something that the Jaguars struggled with, and I worry
Speaker 1: that if they can't get a rush and they can't
Speaker 1: affect the quarterback, um, that it could be a track meet.
Speaker 1: And you know one of those games that whoever has
Speaker 1: the ball last wins is assuming that the Jaguars offense
Speaker 1: can kind of get back to the first two weeks,
Speaker 1: the form they had in the first weeks. Yeah, how
Speaker 1: about that, Tony the the offense last week, you know,
Speaker 1: they were down in the game. Jake Gruden said that
Speaker 1: he probably got away from the run a little bit
Speaker 1: earlier than he wanted to because of the way the
Speaker 1: game was going last week, and he put that on himself. Um,
Speaker 1: if they can get James Robertson going and get the
Speaker 1: run game going and balance things out, that could help things.
Speaker 1: I'm sure. Well absolutely, I mean the run defense, especially
Speaker 1: the first couple of weeks, was not very good. I mean,
Speaker 1: wink two against the Browns was atrocious, but they were
Speaker 1: without Mike Daniels and Gino Atkins and Geno Atkins is
Speaker 1: back limited practicing. Uh. Mike Daniels played last week. I
Speaker 1: think it was a growing injury the week before he
Speaker 1: had so UM you would expect him to be a
Speaker 1: little bit better, but it's a it's something you have
Speaker 1: to take advantage of. You gotta be able to run
Speaker 1: the ball. UM. I don't think this team is good
Speaker 1: enough just to drop back and pass it. UM. And
Speaker 1: the balance is critical. I think if you look at
Speaker 1: the first two games where they scored a bunch of points,
Speaker 1: they had nice balance. UM. They they kept it, they
Speaker 1: stayed in the rhythm. Uh, stayed out of a lot
Speaker 1: of third and long situations. Is one of the reasons
Speaker 1: they had the highest third down conversion rate in the NFL.
Speaker 1: For whatever reason, they got away from that. UM, the
Speaker 1: pace of the game whatever. Uh. You know when they
Speaker 1: started throwing up more and Gardener had a tough day. Uh,
Speaker 1: and the receiver corps have a tough day with some drops,
Speaker 1: especially from Commonly and I you know, overall, as you know,
Speaker 1: even as I'm saying this, it's the Jaguars are a
Speaker 1: team that don't have a lot of margin for air,
Speaker 1: and so you gotta play well, and you gotta stay consistent.
Speaker 1: You've got you know, every down count, you know. I
Speaker 1: think JP we talked about it on Monday's show, that
Speaker 1: you look at a team like the Seattle Seahawks, they
Speaker 1: drop it. You know, they have a shirt touchdown that
Speaker 1: DJ met Cappu messes up, but it doesn't even phase them.
Speaker 1: They keep on going. The Jaguars are a couple of
Speaker 1: big drops and all of a sudden they stall out
Speaker 1: and they can't score points. So um the margin farrest then,
Speaker 1: and I think it's a tough game. I think it's
Speaker 1: a tough matchup up up against the Cincinnati Bengals, just
Speaker 1: because they have shown that they're gonna be in every
Speaker 1: game and that they can score points with that young quarterback.
Speaker 1: And one of the things you got to be able
Speaker 1: to do is you got to run the football, and
Speaker 1: you gotta run it well against this Bengals team. And
Speaker 1: Tony talked about how they've given up some yards. I mean,
Speaker 1: the second worst team in the National Football League hat
Speaker 1: stopping the run and they're giving up five yards of pop,
Speaker 1: you know, so you got to find a way to
Speaker 1: take advantage of that, and then you can certainly have
Speaker 1: the ability to take some pressure off of your own
Speaker 1: quarterback and then you can have some balance on all offense,
Speaker 1: get some manageable third downs, and have an opportunity to compete.
Speaker 1: You know, because Tony is You're right and that you know,
Speaker 1: this football team is not good enough to be able
Speaker 1: to go to Cincinnati or anywhere for that matter and
Speaker 1: not play well and expect to be in the ball
Speaker 1: game and be competitive. This is a young football team
Speaker 1: that's gonna have a lot of growing pains and they've
Speaker 1: got to play well to compete. And that's just the
Speaker 1: way it is. And every week they've got to they've
Speaker 1: got to find a way to compete and find a
Speaker 1: way to maximize some of the talent that they do have. Alright, guys,
Speaker 1: let's come back in a moment. We've had our first

Speaker 1: positive cases of COVID nineteen and welcome back Jack. It's
Speaker 1: happy our j P. Shadrick Jeff Loguvant, Tony Boselli. Yeah,
Speaker 1: let's get to this. Obviously, the big news was all
Speaker 1: the positive tests for Tennessee. They were scheduled to play
Speaker 1: the Steelers this week, and there was hope originally that
Speaker 1: they were maybe going to push the game back to
Speaker 1: Monday or Tuesday. But since that idea, they have had
Speaker 1: more positive tests come through in both personnel and on
Speaker 1: the roster, so the most like that, so they've postponed
Speaker 1: the game to an alternate date. The most likely scenario,
Speaker 1: according to Adam Schefter of ESPN, is moving the Steelers
Speaker 1: Ravens game from Week seven to Week eight. Steelers and
Speaker 1: Ravens would have a buy in Week eight currently, and
Speaker 1: then moved the Steelers Titans game from this week to
Speaker 1: week seven. That's the most likely scenario if there are
Speaker 1: no other positives for the Vikings, and that would have
Speaker 1: to shuffle some other things around, and as of right now,
Speaker 1: the Vikings have not had any positive tests since that game,
Speaker 1: So Tony, that a big change, But you know it's
Speaker 1: one that we you kind of saw it coming at
Speaker 1: some point in this season. It just happens to be
Speaker 1: in Week four. Yeah, outside of going to do what
Speaker 1: the NBA did, which is just a complete bubble and
Speaker 1: trying to lock everything down. I mean, you figured sooner
Speaker 1: or later there will be some positive tests. Now the
Speaker 1: concern is, I mean, just a few minutes ago, I
Speaker 1: was reading on Twitter another positive test for a Titans player,
Speaker 1: and you wonder how long does this go and how um,
Speaker 1: because you know, I think there's like a five to
Speaker 1: six day incubation period where these things can come up.
Speaker 1: And so what you worry about is a number of
Speaker 1: these players getting COVID nineteen. Hopefully they don't get very sick,
Speaker 1: but how long has it taken to recover? Does it
Speaker 1: affect them going into next week's scam as well? UM?
Speaker 1: So those are all things we don't know. I think
Speaker 1: the NFL is doing the best they can and kind
Speaker 1: of managing it the best they can, UM. And so
Speaker 1: hopefully this is an isolated case and they can do
Speaker 1: what you said JP in week seven a week eight
Speaker 1: and kind of get these games in. But I'll be
Speaker 1: shocked if this is the situation we have, UM. And
Speaker 1: there's gonna be a lot of finagling and a lot
Speaker 1: of moving around of games and scheduling and everything else.
Speaker 1: And it's gonna be a fluid process until the end,
Speaker 1: and let's just hope we get all six team games
Speaker 1: in and get to the playoffs. Yeah, I don't know
Speaker 1: how that's gonna happen. I mean, I think at some
Speaker 1: point you're gonna be juggling another situation again. And here's
Speaker 1: the challenging part. Now that you're moving a game for
Speaker 1: three different teams, essentially because of the situation in Tennessee.
Speaker 1: Now you've lost the flexibility to maybe do some things
Speaker 1: with that team later on in the season. You know.
Speaker 1: So hopefully, first and foremost, everybody is gonna be okay
Speaker 1: that has has tested positive. I know that Mike Rabel
Speaker 1: said that some of the people that have tested positive
Speaker 1: are experiencing significant symptoms. And hopefully everybody is gonna be
Speaker 1: okay there first and foremost, you know. But the one
Speaker 1: thing also that you know, you read that comes out
Speaker 1: not too long not too long after the announcement was
Speaker 1: made about the Tennessee situation. You read about how Derek
Speaker 1: Carr and some Ookalan Raider players were at like some
Speaker 1: kind of charity event and we're out and about you go,
Speaker 1: what are you doing right? No, masks? Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: that's I mean, that's that's shocking. Uh, you know, and
Speaker 1: Derek made some kind of statement about how well, you know,
Speaker 1: we wanted to have a night out, want to support
Speaker 1: our teammate, and oh, wait a minute, what's your teammate
Speaker 1: doing having a charitable event where you're you're out amongst
Speaker 1: the public, you know, when you're trying to too. I
Speaker 1: don't want to say self quarantine because you're not totally
Speaker 1: being quarantine, but you're trying to to do the right thing,
Speaker 1: and now you're putting your team at risk, your teammates
Speaker 1: at risk, and to me, that's just it's crazy. I mean,
Speaker 1: I just don't understand that thinking. And uh, I hope
Speaker 1: the Tennessee situation and will bring back how serious this
Speaker 1: issue is to others in the National Football League, because
Speaker 1: I think, you know, things have been going so well
Speaker 1: for the league, so well, whereas colleges had to deal
Speaker 1: with cancelations, et cetera. The league, though it's been it's
Speaker 1: been impeccable and virtually no effect impact whatsoever. And I
Speaker 1: think that when you have that thing's going so well
Speaker 1: well the players that I think certain staff members or
Speaker 1: whatever might also become a little lack And I don't
Speaker 1: know if that was the case with Tennessee. I don't
Speaker 1: know if if that's the case with the Oakland Raiders.
Speaker 1: Were all sudden, Okay, now that things have been going
Speaker 1: so well, we're okay to be able to do this
Speaker 1: little event. But this is a very serious issue. If
Speaker 1: you're gonna pull off the season, all hands on deck
Speaker 1: have to be exactly exact. And as far as the
Speaker 1: decision making that they make and the way they conduct
Speaker 1: themselves in a way that they carry themselves in public
Speaker 1: and around certain situations. Well, And and the thing I'd
Speaker 1: add Jet is um, I mean the NFL has has
Speaker 1: put in some flexibility within the scheduling. I mean, this
Speaker 1: is one of the weeks actually there's no division games,
Speaker 1: with the thought that they condense the season if they
Speaker 1: need to. And I think there's a couple more of
Speaker 1: those um throughout the season. And also there's plans and
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure that they could push the Super Bowl
Speaker 1: back a few weeks. So don't be surprised if, as
Speaker 1: you see the shuffling off, if this continues, And and
Speaker 1: my guess is I agree with you Jeff, that this
Speaker 1: probably isn't the last we see of it. That there
Speaker 1: is flexibility in the schedule for things to be moved around,
Speaker 1: And don't be surprised. I wouldn't be shocked at all
Speaker 1: if they extend the Super Bowl, start the playoffs a
Speaker 1: little bit later, and try to get the games they
Speaker 1: need to get done. Uh. Sometime at the end of
Speaker 1: the season, they condense the season take away weeks and
Speaker 1: have teams makeup games that they missed their um So
Speaker 1: there's flexibility that they built into the schedule. I'm interested
Speaker 1: to hear. We'll hear from Doug Moron coming up at
Speaker 1: five o'clock on The Dug Moron Show. But you know, obviously,
Speaker 1: as as Lounge as you said, you want everybody to
Speaker 1: be healthy and find and come through this thing. But
Speaker 1: at some point you gotta get back to football and
Speaker 1: and get back to your business and go back to work.
Speaker 1: Like the Titans building is closed right now, everybody's away
Speaker 1: from there, and Tony, as you said, they have a
Speaker 1: game next week on the schedule. So at what point
Speaker 1: do you get back in the groove. How quickly does
Speaker 1: that process happen? I guess you just got to kind
Speaker 1: of roll with it. If you're the Titans right now, Well, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean it depends on how how severe, How severe
Speaker 1: are these guys who get sick, um. I mean, God
Speaker 1: forbid some of them get sick. We're's a two to
Speaker 1: three week recovery. How many of them get sick? Um.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think there's so many unknowns. We just
Speaker 1: can't take anything for granted right now. It's really a
Speaker 1: week to week, moment to moment, you know, person to person,
Speaker 1: based on how they handle it and how uh this
Speaker 1: disease spreads throughout the Titans organization or any other organization
Speaker 1: for that matter. So a lot of unknowns. Um. I
Speaker 1: think we all knew that coming into this that there's
Speaker 1: gonna be situations that you just can't control. And even
Speaker 1: if you do the best you possibly can, there's still
Speaker 1: a chance. Because they go home to their families, they
Speaker 1: have kids who are in school. Uh, they have you know,
Speaker 1: probably teenagers that go out and do things. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's it's hard, um. But the one thing you can't
Speaker 1: do is what Jeff mentioned. You can't be a player
Speaker 1: who purposely does things at a charity event or other
Speaker 1: places that really opens yourself up, um, because that even
Speaker 1: makes is going to make it even more difficult to
Speaker 1: get through this, no doubt. It's it's certainly a problem
Speaker 1: now for the Tennessee Titans. And we'll see the official
Speaker 1: word whenever it does come down from the League of
Speaker 1: when that Steelers Titans game will be rescheduled. But as
Speaker 1: we said, the most likely scenario is Week seven, a
Speaker 1: few weeks from right now. Now, let's get to Thursday
Speaker 1: night football. It's a battle of oh and three teams tonight, guys,
Speaker 1: Sam Donald and the hempless New York Jets, entertain Brett
Speaker 1: Rippon and the Denver Broncos. Somebody's those gotta go. And
Speaker 1: let's say, tie where you got tonight? Are you are?
Speaker 1: Are you going to watch the game tonight? I'm not
Speaker 1: sure I turned it on. I hate to say that.
Speaker 1: I mean, I love the NFL, I love football, but
Speaker 1: my goodness, there's I mean, maybe I'll want his background
Speaker 1: noise and as I'm doing something else, but this is
Speaker 1: one of the this is a bad matchup. Well, it's
Speaker 1: a bad matchup that I mean, You've got a who mean,
Speaker 1: who's playing quarterback for the Denver Broncos? Is it ripping tonight?
Speaker 1: And then you got okay, got Brett ripping? And then
Speaker 1: you have damn Donald who. I don't know if it's
Speaker 1: all him, or if it's Adam Gaze, or if it's
Speaker 1: their football team as a whole. But I mean, the
Speaker 1: Jets are just bad, just bad. Yeah, Um, it's going
Speaker 1: to be something to work, Pete. Who who do you
Speaker 1: think is gonna win? Yeah? I don't think it's gonna
Speaker 1: be the Jets. I'll say that this year. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: the Jets, the Broncos. At least the Broncos will play
Speaker 1: some decent defense. So I don't think the Jets have
Speaker 1: a chance. And uh, and I know the reports of
Speaker 1: I mean here here, here's how bad the Jets are. There.
Speaker 1: There's already been rumors and talk about could Adam Gates
Speaker 1: get up fired, end up getting fired after this game?
Speaker 1: And and here's the reality. Could he? Yeah? He might
Speaker 1: because you know what, I haven't been very good so far.
Speaker 1: And he's supposed to be this offensive guru, right and
Speaker 1: what has he done for the Jets offense? What has
Speaker 1: he done for Sam Donald? Done? Done? Nothing? Well? Also,
Speaker 1: I'll go out on the limb. I think the Jets win.
Speaker 1: Oh oh, what what are we betting on that? I'll
Speaker 1: bet you dinner? All right, dinner, all right? We gotta
Speaker 1: we got a dinner. Bet you got the Jet just
Speaker 1: because your FC guy, and then you're totally you're totally
Speaker 1: abandoning your hometown team. I can't believe that. Well, it's
Speaker 1: you know, I want them to I'm gonna go for
Speaker 1: the Jets because I want you to buy me a
Speaker 1: nice steak dinner. And I also want to be able
Speaker 1: to call my dad, who's a big Bronco fan, and
Speaker 1: kind of give him a hard time after they lose.
Speaker 1: But I mean, what if, what if Blake Bortles comes
Speaker 1: in off the bench and leads him to victory? Guys,
Speaker 1: he might I like my chances? Okay, all right, fair enough,
Speaker 1: it's not I mean, he's brand new there. I don't
Speaker 1: think the Broncos are any good. We'll find out who's
Speaker 1: who's worse, I guess tonight the Jets and the Broncos
Speaker 1: coming up, Tony. We will talk to you on Sunday
Speaker 1: for the Jags and the Bengals coming up. We appreciate it,
Speaker 1: all right, see you guys. All right, Tony Boselli out
