When you come up with 17 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,319 Speaker 1: a win, especially a big win like yesterday. It's hard 18 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 1: to put into just a few words what it means 19 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 1: to this team right now to escape that game with 20 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,200 Speaker 1: a win over a team that's contending not just for 21 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 1: the playoffs, but for the a f C North title. 22 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 1: A great man once told me once, Brian winning is cool. 23 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:46,319 Speaker 1: People like it. We'll write that down and it's uh yeah, 24 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 1: and it's it's amazing because the team has been close, 25 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:56,559 Speaker 1: its progressed. If you're backing up from a football XS 26 00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 1: and ohs study it wondering about the future perspective, it's 27 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 1: been close, and yesterday wasn't a quantum leap from what 28 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 1: we've seen, but you win and it verifies everything. But 29 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 1: where it was a quantum leap, But I will get 30 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 1: to it, and our big things was Trevor Lawrence. The 31 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:20,640 Speaker 1: quantum leap there, and that quantum leap is everything. It's 32 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 1: It's why the bounce in the step today it feels 33 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 1: so different than your normal win bouncing the step because 34 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 1: that was real what we saw. Yes he was so 35 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 1: good yesterday in the fourth quarter that even when the 36 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,640 Speaker 1: Ravens went down and Josh Oliver gave them and the 37 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: two point conversion gave them the lead, I really didn't 38 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:41,919 Speaker 1: doubt that Trevor would be able to get the offense 39 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: back down the field. I didn't know that he was 40 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:45,240 Speaker 1: going to be able to get in the end zone 41 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:47,799 Speaker 1: and get the two point conversion. But I had a 42 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 1: sense that he was going to make a game of it. 43 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,079 Speaker 1: That's how much confidence I had the way he played. 44 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 1: A couple of thoughts. And I know we're talking about 45 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 1: Trevor all day. I thought, for the first time, Uh, 46 00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,920 Speaker 1: just watching it from the press box at Jaguars fans 47 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: felt it two what you're talking about? You go down 48 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: twenty and I think I heard of the game this season. 49 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,679 Speaker 1: You would have thought, yeah, yeah, it's it. And I 50 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 1: wrote somewhere on Jaguars dot Com this morning, by the 51 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:20,639 Speaker 1: end of the game, you weren't your gut feeling watching it. 52 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 1: You weren't wondering and hoping he would make the right 53 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 1: decision an accurate throw. You were expecting it. But I 54 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 1: mean to me, I felt on that last drive, even 55 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 1: to the point where I had my head down to 56 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 1: my computer writing, which is what you do when it's 57 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 1: a tight game like that. So I watched the touchdown 58 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 1: to Marvin Jones. Wasn't fully aware that it was fourteen 59 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: seconds lefter ten seconds left when it happened fourteen But 60 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 1: my thought as I was watching the replay was, well, 61 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 1: they'll scoring the next play because they were so hot 62 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 1: at that point. I I hoped for the jaguars sake 63 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 1: that they would get that. Before I think I would 64 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 1: have been thinking, boy, if they don't get this, it's over, 65 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: because it's it was always one shot right yesterday, he 66 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: felt like they were going to score in one of 67 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: the next two plays. The quarterback played that well. The 68 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 1: defense led the way, and it's time for big things, folks. 69 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 1: And by leading the way, I mean this they bent. 70 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 1: They gave up big chunks. On the first play of 71 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 1: the game, Mark Andrews had a twenty five yard completion. 72 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,600 Speaker 1: On the first play of the third quarter, Heat threw 73 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: a forty yard pass to Josh Oliver and yet the 74 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 1: jackboards for all the bending, and they bent a load, 75 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: they didn't break. And they were resilient, which was the 76 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 1: message on the sidelines and in the locker rooms. Shows 77 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 1: all resiliency and were down end of the game. We 78 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 1: got a tan to finish it. We got another offense 79 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: at the end of the game. There showed like if 80 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: we're playing a good football I got coming is the 81 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,159 Speaker 1: offense hopefully got comments in us and uh, you know 82 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 1: everybody number were talented. He's got a putting it together. 83 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 1: It's a good it's a good way to, you know, 84 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 1: start off this little rhyme. We're trying to go on 85 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 1: after the bye, but we gotta keep sack him in 86 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: order to make it happen. Ravens had five trips inside 87 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 1: the red zone, came away, were only two touchdowns. Big 88 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,840 Speaker 1: thing to breakout performances. We talked last week on this show. 89 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: The Jaguars needed to see something from Za Jones, hopefully 90 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: from Evan Ingram to free up Christian Kirk and Travis 91 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 1: e t n against a vicious Baltimore defense. Well they got. 92 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:28,919 Speaker 1: Breakout performance is a Jones a career day. Eleven catches 93 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: for a hundred and forty five yards, most of them 94 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:35,919 Speaker 1: being enormous momentary plays where he kept drives alive, and 95 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 1: of course he finished off the game. He understands how 96 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: big it was for the team. And Doug said, uh, 97 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 1: he's gonna think players and not plays. And he called 98 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 1: my number and he said what do you think? And 99 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, let's do it. And he called 100 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 1: the play and he showed a lot of trust and 101 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: belief that he had in me. And it was so grateful, man, 102 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: just such a such an amazing play and such an 103 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,479 Speaker 1: amazing team win. For I put a lot of time 104 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,040 Speaker 1: in and put a lot of work in. We all 105 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 1: do as offensive unique and just to have a special 106 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:10,039 Speaker 1: day like this, I mean across the board. Uh, I'm 107 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: just I'm just thankful and great for the man. It was. 108 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:13,280 Speaker 1: It was like it was a good time out there 109 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 1: playing for sure. And finally, big thing three, which is 110 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 1: really big thing one here, folks, and this is finally. 111 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,279 Speaker 1: And we've talked all throughout the course of the season 112 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:26,240 Speaker 1: about the transition from losing big, which the Jaguars have 113 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,159 Speaker 1: done in recent seasons, to losing small, which they did 114 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 1: frustratingly too late into this season. It seemed too winning small, 115 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 1: which was what happened yesterday when quarterback Trevor Lawrence lay 116 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 1: that dramatic fourth quarter come from behind win. Obviously, it 117 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 1: feels it feels great, like I like I said after 118 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:44,559 Speaker 1: the game, you know, you put in so much work 119 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 1: and to be on to win the games like that, 120 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 1: it's just it's it's an awesome feeling. Um, nothing like it. 121 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's super cool. And like I said that, 122 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,359 Speaker 1: we've been on the other side, so we understand what 123 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: that feels like. Two And I think we're just appreciative 124 00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 1: of where we are, how far we've come, kind of 125 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,160 Speaker 1: what's in front of us still. And we said it's 126 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 1: a it's a new season once we got back from 127 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 1: the bio week, and you can't win seven games, how 128 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 1: you win one. We had to start today and obviously 129 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: there was some some adversity and we had a battle 130 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 1: through it and we just found a way and it 131 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: was it was incredible. I think the incredible thing to remember, John, 132 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 1: is that they were facing third and twenty one. The 133 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 1: quarterback had just been sacked and put the ball on 134 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: the ground. Our r j E a lineman in the game, 135 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 1: by the way, is Luke Fortner right, because he was 136 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: hustling back to get that ball and preserve the opportunity 137 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 1: third and twenty one. He finds Christian Kirk, then he 138 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 1: finds Marvin Jones. Then some authoritative throws the twenty nine 139 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 1: yards a Jones, which will show you in our next block, folks, 140 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 1: and the touchdown to Marvin Jones. I mean, he didn't hesitate, 141 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 1: put that bowl right where it needed to be with authority. 142 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 1: He just looked different on that final drive. Ye. There's 143 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 1: so much to say about Trevor one thought I wrote 144 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 1: a story on Trevor basically talking about his breakout game, 145 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 1: and I went back and I was trying to find 146 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: a quote in my notes where he talked about himself 147 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: and how good he felt about it, and there really 148 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 1: wasn't one. But you felt it the entire press conference. 149 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 1: And he's a humble guy, so he's not going to 150 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 1: talk about himself, but couldn't you feel it when you 151 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 1: listen to him that he knew what had happened? So 152 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 1: I thought that was interesting And I also thought with him, 153 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 1: as you said, I do. I also do a story 154 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 1: called key Plays every day, I mean every Sunday, trying 155 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 1: to find the key play on the last drive. It 156 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 1: was impossible because there were five or six and they 157 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 1: were big time NFL throws, they know, the most impressive 158 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,959 Speaker 1: thing in the In the fourth quarter, they had two 159 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 1: long drives that without those drives you lose the game. 160 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,679 Speaker 1: He was sacked on the first play of both drives, 161 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 1: or I'm sorry to say, I guess the second play 162 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,440 Speaker 1: put him in third and sixteen, but they got behind 163 00:08:56,520 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 1: the sticks with a chance to have an interception. You know, 164 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 1: I have a fierce pass rush. He came through in 165 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:06,599 Speaker 1: both of those moments and turned in I think it 166 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 1: was fifteen of nineteen hundred and seventy three, two touchdowns 167 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 1: and in the fourth quarter those two drives against the 168 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:16,199 Speaker 1: Ravens defense. That isn't what it was a long time ago, 169 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:19,319 Speaker 1: but it's still a playoff team. Is gonna be in 170 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 1: the playoffs. Uh A. I'll call a career defining, but 171 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 1: a huge jump to where he wants to be for 172 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence. And I think we will look back at 173 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,199 Speaker 1: this game, there's no doubt and it surpasses some other moments. 174 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 1: Right Remember the eight team played Drive in the fourth 175 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 1: quarter against the Colts. I thought that was a breakout 176 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 1: game for him, And in a way it was because 177 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 1: we have seen that drive mental breakout. This was big 178 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 1: time throws. It was number one overall draft pick throws. 179 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 1: But I guess what I'm saying is is that we 180 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 1: saw it. They were down seventeen nothing to the Raiders 181 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 1: and we saw him bring them back and lead a 182 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 1: scoring drive right before the end of the half. In 183 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: Kansas City, you're down twenty to nothing and he led 184 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,200 Speaker 1: the scoring drive that got them points on the board 185 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:07,959 Speaker 1: right before the half. He did it yesterday they were trailing, 186 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 1: he got them up seven to six, then he led 187 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 1: them to ten to nine at the end of the half. 188 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 1: We're seeing him in key moments, I guess, is what 189 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 1: I'm saying in the second quarter and the fourth quarter 190 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 1: where he is getting things done. And that to me 191 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 1: led to what I thought was yesterday the total result 192 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 1: of the breakout game. Yeah, I thought three weeks ago, 193 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 1: four weeks ago, how long it was against the Raiders. 194 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: I made the comment that was the first time I 195 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 1: walked out of the stadium after a game and thought, Okay, 196 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 1: they don't win that game without Trevor Lawrence. Um so 197 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 1: now oclarive they don't win yesterday with that trav Lawrence. 198 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 1: So now that's two of three, um three straight games 199 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 1: over three, over hundred passer rating, no interceptions during that time. 200 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 1: He's only gonna get better because there's so moments. But 201 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:54,959 Speaker 1: you know, I don't gush very often. I'm not a 202 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: big gush. I've noticed that about you. But that yesterday 203 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:00,959 Speaker 1: was the first time I've been back here in two 204 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,200 Speaker 1: has an eleven where I saw a quarterback who can 205 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:05,560 Speaker 1: be elait. One thought quickly on big thing too, and 206 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 1: that is we talked about breakout performances. We needed to 207 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 1: see certain players. We saw one Za Jones career day 208 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 1: JA Michael Hasty Yeah, first catch fifty two yards, uh, 209 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 1: receiving on the day that the touchdown was twenty six. 210 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 1: I think, um, you know he came through when Travis 211 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:24,440 Speaker 1: went down. We've seen strong performances from Agnew, but they 212 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,680 Speaker 1: needed him yesterday and he came up with a big performance. 213 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 1: So on a day that Christian Kirk was not getting 214 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 1: free against a very good raven secondary and E. T 215 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 1: n was on the sidelines with the foot, other guys 216 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 1: stepped up and provided breakout performances and uh you know, yes, 217 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:44,560 Speaker 1: tons of credular guys. Uh Za Jones quietly turning into 218 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:45,839 Speaker 1: a guy. You feel like this team is gonna be 219 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: able to count on moving forward in a package with 220 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 1: you know, with Ridley Boy. All of a sudden, now 221 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 1: you think about Kirk really, Za Jones, all of a sudden, 222 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:58,280 Speaker 1: you got something. Um. Credit to Trevor for now being 223 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 1: able to not have to depend on one element of 224 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: the offense. Whatever tool is put in front of him, 225 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 1: he's showing he can use and yesterday he did it 226 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:11,440 Speaker 1: for seven win over the Ravens and we'll take a 227 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 1: look at some of the big highlights from yesterday's game 228 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 1: against Baltimore when we return here on Jags Drive time. 229 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:33,560 Speaker 1: What do we got to lose? I mean, you know, 230 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 1: and and this is this is something I told the 231 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 1: staff during the during that last I don't know, five 232 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 1: or six minutes of the game, It's like, you know, 233 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 1: we gotta thank players, not plays, you know, and and 234 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:47,600 Speaker 1: and and trust our guys and you know, and and 235 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 1: and that's what this game are. Our guys believe, they 236 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 1: believe And once we scored that touchdown at the end 237 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:54,079 Speaker 1: that you know, they wanted to go for two. It 238 00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 1: wasn't my decision that players were like let's go, you know, 239 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 1: And and um, I got a lot of eighth and 240 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 1: trust in them and just a well executed place to play. 241 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,680 Speaker 1: We've had in our game plan pretty much every week. 242 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 1: And um, we were able to pull it out great. 243 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 1: You know, Trevor today was you know, as lights out. 244 00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 1: He played extremely well. That throw that catch um for 245 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 1: the two point was was a thing of beauty. And um, 246 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 1: you know, I think it's a football team too, you know, 247 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 1: A win like this just you know, um kind of 248 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 1: kind of heads us in the right direction. So, John Os, 249 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 1: you just said he's not a gusher. He's not someone 250 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 1: that gets overly excited. Neither is Doug Peterson when it 251 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 1: comes to his quarterback, John, he's after strong performances. Said, 252 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 1: he's getting there, he's making progress. He's always been really guarded, 253 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 1: I think, and it lights out in his price. Oh no, no, no, 254 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 1: I that was the thing, the trip in my head. 255 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 1: That's the highest praise we've heard from the head coach 256 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:56,319 Speaker 1: about the quarterback this season. Yeah. A couple of thoughts there. 257 00:13:56,360 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 1: First of all, Um, I get what Doug saying. He 258 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 1: was going for it. It didn't matter what the player, um, 259 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 1: And I think the players coming to him and saying 260 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 1: go well, first of all, players are always gonna say uh, 261 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 1: and credit to him. But it was clearly Doug's decision. 262 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:17,600 Speaker 1: He was clearly going for it, and it better be 263 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 1: his decision because you know, the left guard is not 264 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 1: gonna get blamed if it doesn't work, it's gonna be undugs. 265 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 1: So credit to him for doing it. I thought it 266 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 1: was a again one of those moments of you know, 267 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 1: I think he would always do it, but I think 268 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 1: for him right now, it was terrific for what he's 269 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:36,840 Speaker 1: trying to build with this team that it worked because 270 00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 1: you know, he's trying to build chemistry, he's trying to 271 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: make sure everybody understands this is what we're gonna be. 272 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:47,880 Speaker 1: That was that moment. But yeah, he uh yeah, he's 273 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 1: a pretty honest guy, and I think that's why he's 274 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 1: not really given to over gushing when it comes to 275 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 1: the quarterback. Um, he's been measured, he's expressed confidence, but 276 00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 1: there's also been times this year, even publicly, where he's 277 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 1: it's gotta get better, you know, and hasn't really blown smoke. 278 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 1: Uh So, again, that was a watershed moment game in 279 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 1: so many ways, and you could see it in Doug 280 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 1: Peterson when he was on the podium trying to express 281 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 1: how he wanted to say things, but also feeling it 282 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: that this was really important and this was really big 283 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 1: and the Jaguars winn. How about some highlights from yesterday's game. 284 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 1: We'll start in the fourth quarter and the Jaguars are 285 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 1: trailing in this ball game nineteen ten, and you're wondering, 286 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: can against this Ravens defense, can they make something happen? 287 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 1: Fourth and eight Lawrence three step trap cooking for Jones 288 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 1: He's do what a throw by Lawrence trumps it in 289 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 1: the bucket for Jones at a game of seven Lawrence 290 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 1: touchdown track Trevor Lawrence and wait on a ball game 291 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 1: there and checks and John there's the perfect example of again, 292 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 1: guys that the Jaguars are counting on, who aren't the 293 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 1: guys that they're usually counting on. That's a huge twenty 294 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 1: seven yard completion. Yeah, And I thought agnews reaction after it, 295 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:15,400 Speaker 1: I'm probably making too much of this, but I mean 296 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 1: it's something there. They weren't mopping anything up at that point, 297 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 1: you know, like they weren't just trying to get a 298 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 1: couple of stats touchdowns. They still believe they were gonna win. 299 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 1: They still and they still believe they're that what they're 300 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 1: doing right now matters, if you follow me. There was 301 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 1: no thought, you know, uh, and I think and I 302 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: still believe in it. And I thought you could see 303 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 1: it on that drive when the Ravens scored nineteen to ten. Entertainment, 304 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 1: it wasn't over, but I think a lot of fans 305 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 1: are like, oh, here we go again. But there was 306 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 1: none of that. And I thought that was pretty significant 307 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 1: about the body language on that drive and uh, one 308 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 1: thought on z Jones. I never gonnall about him later, 309 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 1: so I mentioned him later. Go ahead with dialects. All right, 310 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 1: so let's move on to the next Jaguars Now Trail 311 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 1: nineteen seventeen. And after a really poor decision to feel 312 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 1: the kickoff and run sideways, which pinned the Ravens at 313 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 1: their own five, here comes Lamar Jackson who gives the 314 00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 1: ball to Gus Edwards, ball making some noise. Edwards the 315 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:27,280 Speaker 1: running back lamars it that flirts, scoop it up. You 316 00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 1: say what you want, um, But Dewey right has made plays. 317 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 1: He made him against the Raiders when he came in 318 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:35,640 Speaker 1: late in the ball game, and he made it here, 319 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,879 Speaker 1: which gave the Jaguars the ball back. Now the offense 320 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:40,920 Speaker 1: couldn't do anything with it, so they ended up with 321 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:42,560 Speaker 1: a field goal, but they ended up with the lead. 322 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:45,160 Speaker 1: John twenty to nineteen. In the blink of an eye, 323 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, now the defense which had bent 324 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 1: and bent and bent but not broken, break serve well 325 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,919 Speaker 1: and gives the ball back. Yeah, dude, came in the 326 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 1: field goal and at one point game Yeah, I don't 327 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,159 Speaker 1: know what else you want? No, nothing, Well, you'd like 328 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 1: a little better covers on on the next wall. That's 329 00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:03,919 Speaker 1: what he is. That's not his fault necessarily. But here's 330 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson to de Shawn Jackson, who was just lifted 331 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 1: from the practice squad the day before the game. The 332 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,160 Speaker 1: start Jackson and the slap down there. It's a little 333 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: kind of speed to clear up when you're tie that 334 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 1: of bark Andrew's second it's twading Lamar winding up going 335 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:29,200 Speaker 1: deep for Jackson. He's good Chickson, but he touch down. Well, 336 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,119 Speaker 1: he's given the ball to the Pittel, So apparently he 337 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 1: was That's not what do he does? Uh not that 338 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 1: this was entirely his fault, But at this point you're thinking, oh, 339 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 1: they did it again. They gave up a big play. Yeah, 340 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:46,119 Speaker 1: and they did. But but look, there are issues on 341 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 1: this defense that have to be addressed at something secret. 342 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:54,199 Speaker 1: But for yesterday the big thing with defense, and you 343 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 1: have to take Peterson made it a couple of times. Look, 344 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,360 Speaker 1: they held him in the red zone, and they held 345 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 1: him enough time times in the red zone if they 346 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 1: won the game. How many times have we sat in 347 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 1: here and talked about it this year that Jais couldn't 348 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 1: score the red zone. That was a difference in the NFL. 349 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 1: These days, you're gonna have five, six, seven games a 350 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 1: year where you have to go win high scoring, one 351 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 1: score games. And I talked about breaking serve all the time. 352 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:21,720 Speaker 1: The job of a good defense in the NFL sometimes 353 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,440 Speaker 1: is in those high scoring games, don't allow touchdowns. And 354 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,720 Speaker 1: the dagor measure by it wasn't just in the red zone. 355 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:30,120 Speaker 1: Remember Davon Hamilton's forced the fumble on fourth down against 356 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:33,360 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. Fourth down in a yard against Lamar Jackson, 357 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,920 Speaker 1: Jaguars defense broke sure. Okay, So now the Jaguars find 358 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 1: themselves facing third and twenty one after losing ground on 359 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 1: the first two plays of this drive with two minutes left, 360 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 1: and who does Trevor find old faithful John third down 361 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,879 Speaker 1: twenty one, Christian Kirk comes up with sixteen. Yeah, you 362 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 1: make the right play in some of that there too 363 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,160 Speaker 1: is having the confidence that you're going to come back. 364 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 1: And I thought as much as the Kirk throw that 365 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 1: that throw we just saw right to Marvin Jones under 366 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 1: pressure gets rid of the ball. Uh, all the throws 367 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 1: that were talked about yesterday, that might have been the 368 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 1: most impressive. And Marvin Jones is not a guy. They 369 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 1: threw a quick gohot screen to him on third down, 370 00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:26,879 Speaker 1: and I remember thinking, why do you throw that one 371 00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 1: to him? The suddenness, you know, the explosiveness of the field. 372 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,440 Speaker 1: That's not his game. He may have his clutch of 373 00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 1: hands as Keenan McCardell. I mean this season and last 374 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 1: year at the end of the game, at the end 375 00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 1: of the season against the Colts, he makes clutch catches. 376 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 1: Za Jones does as well. So on that drive, Za 377 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 1: Jones comes up with another huge play here. It is 378 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:58,240 Speaker 1: sir down in six Lawrence fucking thing for Jones. John 379 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:01,920 Speaker 1: that's the kind of authoritative throw looked different. Yeah, well 380 00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 1: it was one of of many. The earlier one the 381 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,119 Speaker 1: nine yard and we just saw that one again. You're 382 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 1: talking about five or six big time throws that I 383 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,639 Speaker 1: think in any other game you'd have been highlighting that 384 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,439 Speaker 1: one throw of his and with a lot of other quarterbacks, 385 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:20,920 Speaker 1: this was big time, armed talent kind of throws. We 386 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 1: may come up on the two point conversion. Yet the 387 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:26,359 Speaker 1: two point conversion was a rocket. Well, let's watch, here's 388 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 1: the touchdown. It also qualifies as a big time aggressive 389 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: throw touchdown. Joanes sided his skinny legs, and how skinny 390 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:50,399 Speaker 1: leg guys have advantages, and he got that and there's 391 00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:54,040 Speaker 1: the thigh the shin and it holds for the touchdown. 392 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:59,200 Speaker 1: The Ravens can't believe it. Yeah, I was a little 393 00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:03,120 Speaker 1: I thankfully for the dragonars they called touchdown on the field. Yes, 394 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:06,280 Speaker 1: sometimes there are interpretations of rules that you gotta go 395 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 1: with the shin thing. I kind of wondered if they 396 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 1: weren't going to get him for not getting the knee down. Uh, 397 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 1: you know, it's sort of a coin flip call to me, 398 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 1: and good for Marvin Jones, because I guess on that play, Brian. 399 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:26,040 Speaker 1: Sometimes I like it when the call is deserved, and 400 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: it was. It was a heck of a play, and 401 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,680 Speaker 1: it's give it to give it to the guy who 402 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:33,359 Speaker 1: made the heck of a play. All right, here's the 403 00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:35,639 Speaker 1: play that John was referring to big time. Through the 404 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 1: two point conversion, the entire stadium had its heart in 405 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:42,159 Speaker 1: its throat as Doug Peterson said, let's go for it. 406 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 1: They did. They rewarded. I'm all right, send the shotgun, 407 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 1: looking looks say Jones. Ships go up one and that's 408 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 1: the finally moment. Finally they're gonna win a close kid. 409 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:06,040 Speaker 1: That's a rocket too. I mean, it's uh that I 410 00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:09,480 Speaker 1: said earlier, and it's it's enjoyable obviously, talk about a 411 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:14,120 Speaker 1: quarterback of plays like this um in basketball, talk about 412 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:16,200 Speaker 1: being in the zone. It looked at the end of 413 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 1: the game like Trevor was in the zone in this sense, 414 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 1: not like he was just out there throwing Willie Nelly. 415 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 1: But he knew what he needed to do and there 416 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 1: wasn't a stitch of doubt when he was throwing the 417 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 1: ball that it was gonna go where he wanted to go, 418 00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:33,399 Speaker 1: that it was going to be the right throw that 419 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 1: he was gonna You know, it was a joy to 420 00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 1: watch because it was a premium athlete doing things that 421 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:41,879 Speaker 1: most human beings candid. You know, those are the kind 422 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:43,879 Speaker 1: of highlights that people will watch on their computer all 423 00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 1: day long. Uh, the highlights of that last drive alone. 424 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,480 Speaker 1: We'll carry Jaguars fans all week as they get set 425 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:54,479 Speaker 1: for the Detroit Lions at Ford Field next Sunday. When 426 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:58,639 Speaker 1: we returned, Hot Takes makes its presence felt here on 427 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:06,200 Speaker 1: Jack's drive Time. Well, Monday drive Time is brought to 428 00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:08,360 Speaker 1: by the good folks at car shield and and call 429 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 1: them Now if your cars out of manufacturer's warranty, don't 430 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 1: get stuck with the expensive mechanical and computer screen repairs. 431 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 1: Call our friends at car Shield. Now time for hot takes, folks. 432 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:24,239 Speaker 1: Hot takes on a Monday morning. John will start with you. Well, UM, 433 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 1: my take is is this the best game for a 434 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 1: Jaguars quarterback in how long I had? I hesitate to 435 00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 1: say ever, because we're talking about twenty seven years. Um, 436 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:41,159 Speaker 1: it's certainly the best game that in terms of the 437 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 1: impact throws We've been talking about, in terms of the 438 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:47,399 Speaker 1: moment since I've been back in two thousand eleven and not. 439 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 1: I'm assuming there probably wasn't one during the time where 440 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,159 Speaker 1: I was gone for ten years, just because of the 441 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:56,399 Speaker 1: armed talent that's there in in in what we're seeing. Uh. 442 00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,680 Speaker 1: And you go back to Mark Burnell had some unbelievable moments, 443 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 1: but Mark wasn't this in terms of just the unbelievable 444 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:09,480 Speaker 1: rope throws twenty five yards downfield. Uh. So I'm not 445 00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:11,399 Speaker 1: gonna say it's the greatest ever. I'm sure Mark had 446 00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 1: a couple that were different than this, but this, Uh, 447 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:19,920 Speaker 1: and impact of moment when you're three and seven, it's 448 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 1: hard to have that moment. That's where I'm going on 449 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 1: this one. You weren't here. It was in two thousand 450 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:25,720 Speaker 1: seven in Pittsburgh in the playoffs. David Gerrard had a 451 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 1: couple of big time throws. Again he's not Trevor Lawrence, 452 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:31,399 Speaker 1: but he had some big throws. But it was the moment, 453 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:33,960 Speaker 1: you know, the fourth down run when the quarterback comes 454 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 1: through and sets up Josh Golby's field goal to beat 455 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh in the wild card game in Pittsburgh. So you're 456 00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 1: going back fifteen years, that's more the point, right A 457 00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:46,400 Speaker 1: long time? Yeah, it's this is one of the best. 458 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 1: It's one of the best, and I don't know that 459 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 1: this franchise has ever seen, uh the ability to have six, seven, 460 00:25:55,400 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 1: eight unbelievable arm throws. And I say arm throws, they 461 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 1: wouldn't have happened with most other quarterbacks who play. It was. 462 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:11,359 Speaker 1: It was really impressive. Uh. He has to build on it. 463 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,239 Speaker 1: He has to go forward and be great. He has 464 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 1: to go forward and be the number one overall pick 465 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,800 Speaker 1: that we think he's gonna be. Uh. But again, this 466 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:22,640 Speaker 1: has that feel of the coming out moment. So um 467 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 1: mine is this could be the start of something, and 468 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:29,359 Speaker 1: I have I have laid out the nineties comparison ad 469 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,400 Speaker 1: nausey to the point that people are like, really sex 470 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 1: and you're still staking with this. But the reality of 471 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 1: it is is that that was a four and seven 472 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:38,720 Speaker 1: team as well, with a win over the Ravens the 473 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:41,359 Speaker 1: very next week that took them to five and seven. 474 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:44,920 Speaker 1: And forget the comparison there for a moment. But what 475 00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 1: it did was it if you recalled, because I know 476 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:48,200 Speaker 1: you were in the locker room the day the KINGO 477 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,440 Speaker 1: mccarte alter to the media and said, why not us Right, 478 00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:53,360 Speaker 1: there's a belief in that locker room that this team 479 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 1: can go beat Detroit. And if you beat Detroit and 480 00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:58,919 Speaker 1: find yourself five and seven, the guess where you are? 481 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 1: Your name is on the graphic next week when they 482 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:05,440 Speaker 1: start talking about playoff scenarios. Now it's in the in 483 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 1: the hunt and it's at the end of it. But 484 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 1: isn't that what we talked about for this team is 485 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 1: to be on the graphic as the season turns into 486 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 1: the month of November and every week the anticipation heightening 487 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:22,480 Speaker 1: like it did in and getting folks excited about what's possible. 488 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:26,800 Speaker 1: Yesterday I think was that game about getting excited, and 489 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:28,680 Speaker 1: I know you talked last week. The schedule is not 490 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 1: nearly the same. It's much more difficult. But I think 491 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 1: this could be the start of a couple of weeks 492 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 1: of a lot of fun in Jacksonville as people anticipate. Yeah, 493 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,119 Speaker 1: I think the schedule probably makes it a little too 494 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 1: difficult because of this. I think they will be playing 495 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:48,840 Speaker 1: teams Jets, Cowboys, Titans twice. You're playing teams that are 496 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:51,399 Speaker 1: gonna really need it, and you're probably gonna be playing 497 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 1: games like yesterday's that are down to the wire and 498 00:27:55,600 --> 00:28:00,320 Speaker 1: your odds of winning every one of them. But I'm 499 00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 1: not trying to throw water on it. I'm just trying 500 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:04,399 Speaker 1: to start to add some perspect realities. The situation is different. 501 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:06,640 Speaker 1: They are going to play teams just like the Ravens. 502 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:10,359 Speaker 1: Dar's played really really well yesterday, and if the Ravens 503 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:12,199 Speaker 1: get five yards closer, they probably win the game. Right, 504 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 1: So you're talking about that sort of fine line. The 505 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 1: point that I like about this team is I believe 506 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 1: they're going to be on that fine line and that's significant. 507 00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 1: And with the quarterback playing the way he did yesterday, 508 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:24,879 Speaker 1: it gives you a chance every week. Alright, a new 509 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:28,280 Speaker 1: segment to share with you here on Jags Drive Time 510 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:30,640 Speaker 1: and is presented by the Florida Lottery.

You're 542 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:24,000 Speaker 1: back to wrap up Monday drive time. John. The Jaguars 543 00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: now have won two of their last three games, but 544 00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 1: they go to face Alliance team in Detroit that gave 545 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 1: the Bills everything they could handle on Thanksgiving Day and 546 00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:34,239 Speaker 1: they've won three of their last four. And these are 547 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,600 Speaker 1: are both teams that are looking to push through that 548 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 1: glass ceiling that has them in the bottom tier of 549 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:45,720 Speaker 1: the league and and push themselves into the conversation in December. Yeah, 550 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:47,120 Speaker 1: I think if I remember right, the Lions are at 551 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 1: four wins, Jacks or at four wins and I think 552 00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 1: the Lions are at five maybe if you know so, 553 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:55,720 Speaker 1: they are. Both teams are at that point where they 554 00:30:55,800 --> 00:31:00,760 Speaker 1: can get into that six seven win few with neither 555 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:03,480 Speaker 1: franchise has been in for a while by the end 556 00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:05,920 Speaker 1: of the season. That feels so much different, looks so 557 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 1: much different. So, uh, this is a tougher one that 558 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:12,360 Speaker 1: looks on paper. At the same time, I think the 559 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 1: Lions are probably looking at it the same way. You know, Wow, Okay, 560 00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:19,680 Speaker 1: this is it's not a measuring stick, it's not. It's 561 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 1: not to that degree. But for both teams, it's a 562 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 1: tougher matchup than they thought. And then it speaks to 563 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 1: where both are. They both franchises are improving, which after 564 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:30,280 Speaker 1: having the picks they've had the last couple of years, 565 00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:32,719 Speaker 1: you're supposed to be well. And the Lions, folks, especially 566 00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:35,240 Speaker 1: after the way they've played. Ford Field has become a 567 00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:37,600 Speaker 1: loud place. You've been there, It's one of those places 568 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 1: where the sound because it's a covered dome and it's 569 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:41,880 Speaker 1: not a really high ceiling, right, they don't have an 570 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 1: upper deck. Um, it can be loud. It's gonna be 571 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,440 Speaker 1: a challenging place to play. If the Lions folks are believing. Yeah, 572 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:51,800 Speaker 1: But at the same time, if you believe you're ascending, Uh, 573 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,680 Speaker 1: if you believe that Trevor Lawrence is becoming this kind 574 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:57,880 Speaker 1: of a quarterback. Uh, it's the kind of game that 575 00:31:58,040 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 1: you can go win on the road and feel really 576 00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:01,959 Speaker 1: go to act your stuff coming back. Who's the ozone 577 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:04,520 Speaker 1: podcast for the week. I believe it's gonna be Dewey 578 00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:07,320 Speaker 1: Andrew Ingrid, So I'm I'm looking forward to that. He's 579 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 1: a fun guy. The Lions, You're right, there are four 580 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:11,320 Speaker 1: and seven, so it's two four and seven teams. All right. 581 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:14,520 Speaker 1: Here we go, Jaguars and Lions, and we have plenty 582 00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:17,360 Speaker 1: to talk about. We'll be back with you on Wednesday 583 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:21,880 Speaker 1: to begin the preparation for the Jaguars Lions contest on Sunday. 584 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 1: Jags with a big wind.
