Speaker 1: comment and a five star rating. Let's begin with the

11
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:41,600
Speaker 1: best of the press conferences this week, starting with second

12
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:45,440
Speaker 1: year quarterback Trevor Lawrence. He went through a wild rookie season,

13
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:48,160
Speaker 1: of course we all remember that, but now says things

14
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:51,480
Speaker 1: have calmed around him. That's exciting because just to see

15
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 1: how far we've come in a year in my through

16
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 1: my lens, you know, obviously it's different for everyone else.

17
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 1: I haven't seen as much as I've seen just because

18
00:00:57,880 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 1: we've only had a couple of preseason games and now

19
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 1: we're to start the season. But to see the improvement

20
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 1: guys of the of the guys that were here and

21
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 1: see how much better that we've gotten than. Obviously, the

22
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 1: new additions have helped a ton um and just the

23
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:10,959
Speaker 1: whole mindset. I think the culture is really flipped. And

24
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 1: that's something that doesn't happen overnight. So it's taken a

25
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,120
Speaker 1: lot of a lot of work by a lot of people,

26
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 1: and I think we're in a great spot right now

27
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 1: and we just gotta keep building on that. Obviously, you've

28
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,679
Speaker 1: got to sustain it. And I'm just really excited to

29
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 1: now have an opportunity to prove it. You know, this one,

30
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:25,680
Speaker 1: this one counts, and we're gonna, you know, have seventeen

31
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 1: games at least to prove who we are. There are

32
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 1: plenty of new contributors on offense and a brand new

33
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 1: offensive system. Lawrence explained his thoughts on what the offensive

34
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 1: identity might be offensively. I mean, I think we're a

35
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 1: really hard nosed team up frontum that can run the ball.

36
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 1: I think we're gonna create a lot of explosives down

37
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,120
Speaker 1: the field. That's something that I'm really confident with the

38
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 1: guys we have. I think we've got a couple of

39
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 1: great backs, um, and that those are kind of that

40
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 1: goes to by our offensive commandments, you know, protect the football,

41
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 1: create explosives, ball security, all those things. And there's there's

42
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 1: more of them too, you know, we could talk about

43
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: but and that's just what we live by us who

44
00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 1: we try to be. Now. The head coach, Doug Peterson,

45
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 1: he's facing his old Philadelphia quarterback Carson Wentz now with

46
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 1: the Commanders. It was wins his second year when he

47
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 1: took a huge step for the Eagles and now Lawrence

48
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: is entering year two for the Jaguars. But Peterson explained

49
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 1: the differences so far. Year two for Trevor is a

50
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 1: different staff, right, different different head coach, different coordinator, different

51
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,680
Speaker 1: position coach. Where Carson year two it was the same

52
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:25,080
Speaker 1: same guys and there was consistency there, you know. And

53
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,919
Speaker 1: although we've seen tremendous growth in Trevor year two, for

54
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 1: for Carson with us, there there was another there was

55
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 1: another step, there's another leap there, and you know, those

56
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 1: are things that we're trying to get Trevor to right

57
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 1: that level that with Trevor in our system, and you're

58
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 1: you're gonna see it probably throughout the course of the season,

59
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: you know, but I think time will tell you know,

60
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 1: with with him. The head coach was also asked this

61
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 1: week off the Jackson needed a win to validate all

62
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 1: Dave instilled in the team this offseason. Well, I mean, listen,

63
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 1: you want to win every football game. There's there's no

64
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 1: question about that, UM. And you want you want to

65
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,080
Speaker 1: do the things we talked about, right. You want to

66
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 1: take care of the football, you want to create turnovers,

67
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 1: you want the ability to run the ball, stop the run.

68
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,799
Speaker 1: I mean, it's all those things we've talked about from

69
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 1: from day one. And I think if you do enough

70
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 1: of that in any game, your your chances of winning

71
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,640
Speaker 1: are you know, increase. But we just have to focus

72
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 1: on us and make sure we're doing everything we can

73
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 1: to uh, you know, um, give our players the best

74
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 1: opportunity to be successful on game day. This is also

75
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,920
Speaker 1: the first time Press Taylor has been an offensive coordinator

76
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 1: with Doug Peterson, and the first time they'll operate during

77
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 1: a real game. Taylor will be in the press box

78
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 1: with Peterson calling plays on the field. But Taylor has

79
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: been around the Jags head coach long enough that he

80
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 1: has a pretty good idea of when to chime in

81
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 1: and when to lay out. That's the benefit of having

82
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: spent five years with Doug, of knowing what he expects

83
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 1: on the headset, what the communication like is, and through

84
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: the four preseason games as well, of everybody kind of

85
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 1: understanding what that is. And I think I have a

86
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 1: good feel for what kind of communication he expects and

87
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 1: he likes. And then kind of when he's he's in

88
00:03:57,640 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 1: his flow and you kind of give him time to

89
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 1: make the play called. There's not a lot of extra

90
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,480
Speaker 1: chatter on the headsets for him. And usually we're in

91
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 1: lockstep with most things. You know, we've talked about, We've

92
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 1: gone through scenarios, whether it's throughout this week as we

93
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 1: built each section of the game plan to even Sunday morning,

94
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 1: we'll get a chance to sit and meet before the

95
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 1: game in the locker room in the air conditioner, kind

96
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 1: of talk through all right, if you get this, what

97
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 1: are we thinking? Where we have both of us just

98
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 1: bouncing ideas around um and so we're all kind of

99
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 1: on the same page. So then once he's going, he's

100
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 1: got it going. We moved to the locker room this week.

101
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 1: Right guard Brandon sheaff've spent the first seven years of

102
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 1: his career with Washington and went to five Pro Bowls.

103
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 1: He'll run out of the tunnel at FedEx Field as

104
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 1: a visitor this week, and it's a little bit different.

105
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:39,359
Speaker 1: It's gonna be really weird. You know. I've spent my

106
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:41,280
Speaker 1: seven years there, had had a lot of fun, a

107
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,119
Speaker 1: lot of memories. But it's gonna be it's gonna be different.

108
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 1: I'm excited because, uh, you know, it's to start to

109
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 1: the new season and we're playing football and this is

110
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 1: our job and this is what we dream about doing.

111
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,599
Speaker 1: So how were you going to be named the captain

112
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 1: of a Disney team? It feels great, you know, it

113
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 1: means that, you know, that was one of my goals

114
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 1: is to do everything the right way, and you know,

115
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,719
Speaker 1: obviously just trying to lead by example and for them

116
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 1: to be to vote me as a captain is a

117
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 1: tremendous honor for me, and I don't take it lightly.

118
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,240
Speaker 1: So I'll do whatever I can for absolutely anybody in

119
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 1: this building. Have just what speaks to you? Uh you know,

120
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 1: I think, uh, I think we're physical. I think we're

121
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 1: gonna be tough. I think we got a heck of

122
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 1: a quarterback behind us. We're excited to block for him.

123
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 1: Some great running backs some great receivers. So if we

124
00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:24,480
Speaker 1: can put it all together, I think will be pretty dangerous.

125
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 1: But it's all about you know, Like coach always, he says,

126
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:29,720
Speaker 1: take it one day at a time, and uh, when

127
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:31,839
Speaker 1: Wednesday comes, you know, put the game plan together and

128
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 1: then get ready to go. The number one overall pick,

129
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: Trayvon Walker, the outside linebacker for the Jaguars, will make

130
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,359
Speaker 1: his regular season debuts Sunday. He said this week the

131
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 1: draft status doesn't matter much anymore. I mean, yeah, that

132
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 1: they'll lean on me, of course, that's why I'm drafting

133
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 1: in that position, but them them knowing me, I'm not

134
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 1: that type of guy. Don't like, you don't have to

135
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 1: refer to me in no first rounds that I'm just

136
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,600
Speaker 1: I'm a regular football player like everybody else. I'm here

137
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:58,239
Speaker 1: to get paid, just like everybody. At number twenty seven overall,

138
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,600
Speaker 1: the Jaguars selected Devin will In, a linebacker from Utah.

139
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 1: It's been a long time dreaming of this moment to

140
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 1: play in a regular season NFL game. Yeah, for so long,

141
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 1: ever since I started playing football. This is the goal.

142
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,039
Speaker 1: And um, you know, really I haven't thought about it

143
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 1: too much because I've been just trying to prepare, you know,

144
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,640
Speaker 1: so I can't go out and execute at a high level.

145
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:17,960
Speaker 1: But I know there's gonna be a lot of most

146
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 1: is running through um, and I know they're also gonna

147
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:22,720
Speaker 1: go away pretty quick because I'm the type of guy

148
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be locked in and I'm gonna be ready

149
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 1: to play. You were known as a kind of a

150
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 1: film rap. I guess really for a better term at Utah.

151
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 1: How different is that here? I mean, there's probably more

152
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 1: time for that here. How do you balance that in

153
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 1: the NFL? How do you compare the two? So much

154
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 1: more time because you don't have classes, and it's really

155
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,479
Speaker 1: it's really nice, And I really feel like I have

156
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 1: a good balance now of how much is enough but

157
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:47,600
Speaker 1: not too much, because I feel like even a Utah

158
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:49,839
Speaker 1: I might have done I wouldn't say too much, but

159
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:51,680
Speaker 1: there can be to a point where you watch too

160
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 1: much in the overthing on the field versus just watching

161
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,240
Speaker 1: the right amount, getting good amount and then going out

162
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 1: and trusting you but also just playing ball. So I

163
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 1: feel like I got that good amoun out and like

164
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 1: you said, it's a lot more time. So that's nice.

165
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 1: When we look back at this defense at the end,

166
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:06,600
Speaker 1: of the year. What what is the calling card of

167
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 1: this defense going to be? If you had to say

168
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 1: it going into week one, you don't know, I hadn't

169
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 1: played a game yet, But what does it feel like

170
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: for you guys? Um, I think we're gonna be an

171
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 1: attacking style defense. We're all about taking the ball away,

172
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 1: stopping the run, and getting after the quarterback. So take

173
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 1: aways the number one. We want to get the ball

174
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 1: back to the offense so they can do their thing.

175
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 1: Um Less, we want to give them as much time

176
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 1: as possible to score. But then um also hanging our

177
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 1: hat on running the defense, stopping the run on first

178
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 1: to take it down. And then we got you know,

179
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 1: uh to too many pass rushers. You know, we've got

180
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 1: so many guys that can get after the quarterback. So

181
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 1: we're gonna give them a chance, let them loose on

182
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 1: third and long. Um, we don't want to make a

183
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 1: third and store. We want to you know, make a

184
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 1: long down and distance. So just guys that are just

185
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,680
Speaker 1: you know, an attacking style of defense. There's no such

186
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 1: thing as too many pass rushers. By the way, the

187
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 1: turnover thing, you were around the ball a lot at

188
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 1: Utah hands on the football takeaways, interception returns, the whole thing.

189
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,640
Speaker 1: How much of that is a mentality? How much of

190
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 1: that is film study? Come, come combine? How does that

191
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 1: work for you? I think, um, everything plays a role

192
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:08,679
Speaker 1: and when you put it all together, it just shows

193
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,280
Speaker 1: up even more. Um. Some people just have a natural

194
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 1: athletic ability. UM. Some people, like you said, film study,

195
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:17,640
Speaker 1: they're always they just know where to be. UM. And

196
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 1: some people just it's a mentality they say they're gonna

197
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 1: be around the ball. I feel like I have a

198
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 1: good combination of all all three, you know, athleticism, film study,

199
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 1: and um, just that mentality of you know, I just

200
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 1: wanted to get the ball around. I'm always taking turnover

201
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:30,680
Speaker 1: so um, you know that's my thing is, you know,

202
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 1: getting the ball back to the offense, making big place

203
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 1: and finally, running backs are under the microscope this week,

204
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 1: James Robinson has been given the green light to return

205
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 1: to play after an achilles injury late last season. On

206
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 1: the post practice water break presented by Crown Royal this week,

207
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 1: he shared with me how the rehab process with and

208
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:51,080
Speaker 1: how the athletic training staff helped keep him on track.

209
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 1: What was the most difficult a challenging part of that

210
00:08:55,160 --> 00:09:00,440
Speaker 1: maybe mentally to get through Uh. Probably like right after surgery.

211
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 1: It was just like I couldn't do anything. Uh, showing

212
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:07,440
Speaker 1: room was hard, and I mean I was just like

213
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 1: in the bed like all day and not able to

214
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:11,960
Speaker 1: do anything at all. I mean, I'll come here, do treat,

215
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 1: I do treatment, but it was really just I was

216
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:16,319
Speaker 1: still in the cast and stuff, so I still couln't

217
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 1: do anything. I was doing stuff in my right leg,

218
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,440
Speaker 1: just keeping it strong. But um, yeah, I think that

219
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 1: was the hardest part, just me playing around for like

220
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 1: three months and not being able to do anything. You

221
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 1: can only do so much physically. So what do you do?

222
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 1: Do You watch Netflix? TV? I mean, how do you

223
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:37,040
Speaker 1: kill Todd? Um? I get Netflix? I mean me just

224
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:41,200
Speaker 1: playing games, I guess. I mean I was kind of

225
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 1: just kidding. I was already bored, but I don't know

226
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 1: what to do with myself just sit later and look

227
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 1: at the seeling. I guess I was. I mean the

228
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 1: only thing I did was watch TV, like you said,

229
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:54,079
Speaker 1: and it was in the training room. So you finally

230
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 1: got back out there though, once you're out there running again.

231
00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 1: I think you told me a little earlier in the

232
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,679
Speaker 1: offseason that's when you realized, Okay, I can actually move

233
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 1: around and do some things now. But you have to

234
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 1: balance that out. You don't want to push it too

235
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:07,719
Speaker 1: hard and go over the top, but you still want

236
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 1: to get some work done. How did they keep you

237
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 1: on track just day to day and not let you

238
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:15,959
Speaker 1: go a little too far ahead. I'm just like a

239
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,199
Speaker 1: little trackers that we got on our jersey and stuff

240
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:21,240
Speaker 1: like that. Uh, they kind of try to keep my

241
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,160
Speaker 1: yards up with other guys. I mean I wasn't up

242
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 1: there obviously at the beginning, but um, they tried to

243
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,320
Speaker 1: limit how much how much I do but day by

244
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,560
Speaker 1: day and stuff like that, and just seeing how I

245
00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 1: feel coming in the next day. And if I felt good,

246
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:36,720
Speaker 1: then we were good to move on. But if I

247
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 1: felt a little soreness or something like that, and then

248
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,440
Speaker 1: they weren't doing it by the feeling the soreness like

249
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:43,840
Speaker 1: it was were they were surprised to I mean, not

250
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:47,079
Speaker 1: feeling any soreness, so we would move on. All the

279
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 1: the best of our shows this week. Thursday. On Jack's

280
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 1: Drive Time, the Commander's Senior VP of Media and Content,

281
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 1: Julie Donaldson joined Ashman Sullivan, John Ozier, and Brian Sexton

282
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 1: and she was asked how head coach Ron Rivera for

283
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 1: the Commanders keeps the team's focus on football with all

284
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,600
Speaker 1: the noise around the organization. Yeah, we asked him that

285
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,040
Speaker 1: question a lot, because since he's come here a couple

286
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,160
Speaker 1: of years ago, taking over a team that just had

287
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,320
Speaker 1: three wins. COVID happens, he ends up having cancer, doesn't

288
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 1: miss a game, but he's going through treatment throughout the

289
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 1: entire season, and you could see him just physically white

290
00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:51,800
Speaker 1: Alex Smith coming back from injury. On everything that happens

291
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:53,640
Speaker 1: around the quarterbacks, I think he's had like six or

292
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 1: seven different starting quarterbacks in just a few years. That

293
00:12:56,360 --> 00:13:00,680
Speaker 1: he has been here. Um. He attested to his military

294
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 1: background of just being kind of steady. And that's the

295
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 1: one thing that when I first took on this job

296
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 1: and was kind of learning about him, everybody would say

297
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:11,560
Speaker 1: he's a very steady leader. Uh. And he continues to

298
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 1: be that way as he goes through everything now and

299
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 1: still kind of trying to lead this team. UM to

300
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,440
Speaker 1: be able to say, okay, like one of his favorite

301
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 1: sayings is what's interesting and what's important? You know, like,

302
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:23,560
Speaker 1: is it interesting, okay, then let's not put pretty much

303
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:25,240
Speaker 1: attention into it. If it's important, then we need to

304
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 1: focus in on it. Um. So he's done a really

305
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:29,320
Speaker 1: good job kind of leading this team, and they've taken

306
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:31,840
Speaker 1: on his personality as well, and you can kind of

307
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,320
Speaker 1: see that this year with the players. Surely you could

308
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 1: make the argument that this is, uh, this could be

309
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 1: a last chance for Carson. Whit is certainly a third chance,

310
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 1: which for NFL quarterbacks, you know you don't get that many.

311
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:48,560
Speaker 1: How is he approaching it? H what's your sense of

312
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 1: sort of where he's at mentally going into this thing.

313
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 1: I've been impressed by Carson. I mean, he gets hit

314
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,280
Speaker 1: up on this question almost every single interview he gets

315
00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,679
Speaker 1: of that. Look, it didn't work out with the Eagles,

316
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: it didn't work out with you know, your guru that

317
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 1: drafted you. You know you're worth the Colts. And of

318
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:06,679
Speaker 1: course everybody remembers that game that he had against you

319
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: guys last season that basically lost him his job in Indianapolis. Um,

320
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 1: which is why he's here in Washington. And look, I mean,

321
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 1: coach Vera's gone out there and made a very public

322
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 1: that we want you, We want you to know that

323
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,080
Speaker 1: this is your team. We believe in you. They believe

324
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:23,120
Speaker 1: they can get him back to the form um that

325
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 1: he was in Philadelphia before he became succumbed to a

326
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 1: whole bunch of different injuries that kind of just like

327
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,640
Speaker 1: set things off in a bad course for him. But

328
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,000
Speaker 1: he comes in as a different leader and a different man.

329
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 1: I mean, he claims that, you know, his faith is

330
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 1: first and foremost most important to him. So that keeps

331
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:40,280
Speaker 1: him steady. That he's got a family, his two little

332
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:43,000
Speaker 1: girls that don't care if he throws interceptions or has

333
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 1: a bad game. Uh, And so that kind of keeps

334
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 1: him grounded in the nets football after that, And make

335
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 1: no mistake, this means a competitor. He understands the pressure,

336
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:53,600
Speaker 1: he understands what this season means to him in his

337
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 1: career as a starter. Um. But so far, I mean,

338
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 1: we're all curious to what does how does he do?

339
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 1: You know, like he's got that arm to stretch the field.

340
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,200
Speaker 1: We have the speed with Terry mcclorde and John Dodson

341
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 1: to be able to draw those defenders away. Um, but

342
00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: is he gonna, you know, be as accurate um as

343
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:11,560
Speaker 1: you want at times? So I think we're all just

344
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 1: gonna sit back and wait and see how this offense goes.

345
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 1: But mentally, I feel like he's coming in pretty sound

346
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 1: and pretty confident in himself. Julie, how is your old

347
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 1: buddy Jack del Rio deploying his defense without Chase Young,

348
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:24,880
Speaker 1: your best defensive player? And what are the best pass

349
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,920
Speaker 1: rushers in the game? How are you? How is del

350
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 1: Rio overcoming the absence of such a great player early on? Yeah? Well,

351
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 1: last season Chase Young didn't get off to the hottest

352
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,320
Speaker 1: start that we anticipated. After winning Defensive Rookie of the

353
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 1: Year and having what eight nine sacks or so um

354
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,280
Speaker 1: in that season, you tend to expect those players to

355
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 1: take big steps in big leaps. He was struggling a

356
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:47,960
Speaker 1: little bit early on. Then when he goes down to

357
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:49,720
Speaker 1: an injury, which is pretty gruesome with an a c

358
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:51,680
Speaker 1: L and some other things mixed in there, like he's

359
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 1: gonna at least miss the first four games of the

360
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 1: season starting on the physically and able to perform list. Um.

361
00:15:57,560 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 1: But they came together as a unit when he was out.

362
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 1: One of the issues they had last season if they

363
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 1: thought a lot of guys were just going for the

364
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 1: numbers and playing individually, not as one unit. Um, And

365
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 1: that's something as Ryan Carrigan, as he is now on

366
00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:12,160
Speaker 1: our coaching staff having retired the all time sack leader

367
00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 1: for Washington, Um comes in and says, you have to

368
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 1: rush as one, and so they kind of fall a

369
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 1: little bit more into their system without Chase out there.

370
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 1: But look, Montes Sweat is an animal of himself, a

371
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:26,480
Speaker 1: first round draft pick, UM, and he has been quietly

372
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,360
Speaker 1: bracking up some pretty good numbers. You know, you've got

373
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 1: the interior line with Jonathan Alan durn Payn. Durn Payne

374
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 1: has been having an outstanding camp. James Smith Williams is

375
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:38,320
Speaker 1: coming in on the other side filling in for Chase Young. Um.

376
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 1: Look he might not be a Chase Young, but he's

377
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 1: a very capable edge rusher as well. So they're trying

378
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:46,720
Speaker 1: to play more within this system as opposed to playing individually.

379
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:49,800
Speaker 1: Jack's drivetime here is Monday, Wednesday and Thursday mornings on

380
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:54,119
Speaker 1: Jaguars dot Com and the Jags social media channels Twitter, Facebook,

381
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 1: and YouTube. Also this week, it was the return of

382
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,920
Speaker 1: the live version of Huddle Up with Bucky Brooks. Buck

383
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 1: he Osha and I talked through how Jaguars had coach

384
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,960
Speaker 1: Doug Peterson and in turn the Jaguars defense could have

385
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:09,840
Speaker 1: an advantage and preparing for Commander's quarterback Carson Wentz, if

386
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:14,360
Speaker 1: you've had him as your quarterback before and Doug Peterson

387
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 1: and the staff, Yeah, Doug's the head coach, but there's

388
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,240
Speaker 1: a new defensive coordinat around here. How do you prepare

389
00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:22,720
Speaker 1: for Carson Wentz? Do you do you look back to

390
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 1: Philly stuff? Do you look back to Indy stuff? How

391
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 1: do you manage this now that he's on his third

392
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:31,880
Speaker 1: NFL team. It's a mix of studying what he did

393
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:34,760
Speaker 1: in Indianapolis the last time he saw him, what he's

394
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 1: done in the preseason with the Commanders, and then based

395
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:40,920
Speaker 1: on the intel that you know from working with him intimately.

396
00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:45,040
Speaker 1: Doug Peterson knows what makes Carson Wentz tick, not only

397
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:47,359
Speaker 1: because he coached him for him full of years, but

398
00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:49,199
Speaker 1: he drafted him. So he had to do all the

399
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:52,679
Speaker 1: research to really figure out how he's wired, what he thinks,

400
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 1: and in doing that he had to be able a

401
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 1: playbook for him based on those uh, those thoughts, and

402
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:01,240
Speaker 1: so there's no one better in terms of being able

403
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:03,399
Speaker 1: to prepare for Carson Wentz didn't Doug Peterson. He can

404
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,520
Speaker 1: tell mikel exactly when he was a young player and

405
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:08,920
Speaker 1: he was athletic. He didn't like this now that he's

406
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 1: an older player because the last time do academy and

407
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:14,320
Speaker 1: eventually had to bench him here the things that gave

408
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 1: him problems. Carson Wentz is going to face his demons

409
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 1: this weekend, and depended upon if he's gone to therapy

410
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:22,960
Speaker 1: and work through some of those issues that plagued him,

411
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:25,400
Speaker 1: he would either play well or he would go back

412
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:27,639
Speaker 1: to struggling like he struggled in the past. Yeah, that

413
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,360
Speaker 1: was interesting. I talked to The Commander's senior writer, my Cohort,

414
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:34,159
Speaker 1: if you will, on Tuesday, and he mentioned that one

415
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 1: of the first things the Commanders did when they brought

416
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:40,760
Speaker 1: in Wentz was basically tell him, we're bringing you in

417
00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:45,119
Speaker 1: because we want your skill set. Uh. He didn't say it,

418
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,080
Speaker 1: but I think the implication there is that is that

419
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 1: the Colts sort of brought him in and to sort

420
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:52,679
Speaker 1: of manage uh and and and be the veteran. I

421
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 1: don't know that's what Wentz is. Uh So I think

422
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 1: you will see the Commanders try to bring back uh

423
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:03,720
Speaker 1: using wents his legs and making plays, etcetera. Uh So,

424
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:05,719
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know how that plays into this

425
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:11,600
Speaker 1: week's game, but I think this team wants to showcase

426
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 1: maybe what Wentz does well, maybe a little more than

427
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 1: the Colts dead. I didn't follow the Colts enough to

428
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,920
Speaker 1: know how much they did that last year, but it

429
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,239
Speaker 1: strikes me that could be a difference in Wentz. But uh,

430
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:25,920
Speaker 1: I agree with Buck, this is a mind game game

431
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,879
Speaker 1: for Wentz this week. I'll say this about Carson Carson

432
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:31,280
Speaker 1: Winson Washington, that's a little different than the Carson wentesday

433
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,160
Speaker 1: we saw in Indianapolis. In Indianapolis, he had the best

434
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 1: offensive line of football that you could ever be behind.

435
00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:40,199
Speaker 1: He also had a top notch running back and Jonathan Taylor.

436
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 1: The wire receivers are not necessarily up to what the

437
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:45,960
Speaker 1: commanders can present. When you think about Terry mclauren and

438
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:49,560
Speaker 1: some of their young receivers. I believe Frank Wright is

439
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:53,399
Speaker 1: an upgrade as a play caller than what Scott Turner

440
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 1: is in Washington. And so if the Washington commanders want

441
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,439
Speaker 1: to put Carson Wentz out there and let him run around,

442
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:00,920
Speaker 1: it's going to be problem when attict for Carson Wentz

443
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:02,560
Speaker 1: because he's not the athlete that he was in North

444
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,560
Speaker 1: Dakota State, and so if he ventures outside of the pocket,

445
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,520
Speaker 1: as he's prone to do when things get a little

446
00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:10,679
Speaker 1: harry in the pocket, he is going to take a

447
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:13,440
Speaker 1: big shot. And that's just the way it is because

448
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:16,440
Speaker 1: he's not mobile enough to do uh the elusive stuff

449
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:18,439
Speaker 1: that he used to do, and he's not necessarily looking

450
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 1: to run over people like some of the bigger quarterbacks

451
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 1: like a Josh Allen could do. So his best bet

452
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 1: is to stay in the pocket and to try and

453
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:29,159
Speaker 1: deliver the ball on time and on target. Is not

454
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,360
Speaker 1: his strong suit. But he's going to have to play

455
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:34,160
Speaker 1: in the pocket because he ventures out there with those

456
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:37,359
Speaker 1: big dudes that we've seen on the Jaguars defense, it

457
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 1: is going to be a problem when Trayvon Walking, Josh

458
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 1: Allen and those gotta start hunting. He's fixing to get hit. Yeah,

459
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:48,160
Speaker 1: And I've been saying a wait to me if if

460
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:53,359
Speaker 1: if the Jaguars in the first half are running in mass,

461
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 1: defensively towards some screen and posing as as all these

462
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:01,080
Speaker 1: kids have to do these days is after interception, Buck,

463
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 1: I don't like it, but that's how it is. If

464
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:05,879
Speaker 1: they're doing that in the first half, I think the

465
00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,680
Speaker 1: Jaguars win the game. If they forced to turn over,

466
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:11,760
Speaker 1: get inside his head or whatever that is, If the

467
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 1: game's going in a way that they're pressuring and causing disruption,

468
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:19,879
Speaker 1: then I think I think the Jaguars win. And I

469
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,440
Speaker 1: ain't giveaway takeaway for every team in the league is crucial.

470
00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 1: I think for this Jaguars team, considering that I had

471
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:28,640
Speaker 1: nine last year, I think that is a mammoths mammoth

472
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:32,240
Speaker 1: stat for this team this year. Nine seven interceptions last year. Buck,

473
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:35,560
Speaker 1: that's not that's not enough. No, that's not enough. So

474
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:37,160
Speaker 1: there are a couple of things that I'll say that

475
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,080
Speaker 1: uh oh, because you're you're on it. The turnovers have

476
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,840
Speaker 1: to come because when you have a young, energetic defense

477
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:44,600
Speaker 1: like the Jaguars, that they're gonna feed off of that

478
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:48,639
Speaker 1: you saw already in the preseason and it doesn't count,

479
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:51,359
Speaker 1: but it certainly matters. When the number one defense played

480
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 1: and played well, you can see the energy pickup, you

481
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 1: can see the effort, the way they ran to the ball.

482
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say this because the Jaguars have not been shot.

483
00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 1: I'll talking about the physicality and the toughness and what

484
00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:04,320
Speaker 1: they want to do. I believe the game will ultimately

485
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:07,600
Speaker 1: be decided if the Jaguars are able to hit Carson

486
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:10,920
Speaker 1: Wentz very early in the game. Somebody has to put

487
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:14,120
Speaker 1: a hit on Carson Wentz early, because all quarterbacks change

488
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,720
Speaker 1: once they started getting hit. It quickens the clock, it

489
00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:18,960
Speaker 1: changes the way they go through their p regressions. They

490
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:22,400
Speaker 1: begin to rush through things and you see interceptions happen

491
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:26,200
Speaker 1: off tips and overthrows. So if Josh Allen, Trayvon Walkers,

492
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:28,879
Speaker 1: someone inside, if they're able to get the Carson Wentz

493
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 1: early and hit him, it is going to change the

494
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:34,880
Speaker 1: way that he plays and he will remember those bad images,

495
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,200
Speaker 1: the nightmares that he had in the bank. Those things

496
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,520
Speaker 1: that come back up quickly gets off to a poor start.

497
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,680
Speaker 1: Catch Hunting Up with Bucky Brooks Wednesdays at four o'clock

498
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 1: on the Jaguars social media channels and Jaguars dot Com,

499
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:48,840
Speaker 1: And finally this week, a preview of an interview that

500
00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:52,840
Speaker 1: will running full on the Official Jaguars Podcast Network Saturday,

501
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,760
Speaker 1: with a portion of that running Sunday on Countdown to

502
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,840
Speaker 1: kick Off on the Jaguars Radio Network. It's NFL on

503
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:02,639
Speaker 1: Fox analyst Robert Smith, who provided his overall thoughts about

504
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 1: the Jaguars and much more, what are your expectations for

505
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:09,720
Speaker 1: the Jaguars and two from the outside looking in? Well,

506
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:12,600
Speaker 1: you know, there's no reason to go back into all

507
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:14,639
Speaker 1: of the things that we're going on last year with

508
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 1: Urban Meyer and around the organization and the turmoil, let

509
00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 1: alone some of the issues just you know, with the

510
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:24,160
Speaker 1: way that the team was playing. You know, I think

511
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,800
Speaker 1: you learned really everything that you need to know about

512
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:28,919
Speaker 1: most of the guys in the locker room. When you

513
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,680
Speaker 1: saw that game against Indianapolis at the end of the season,

514
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,200
Speaker 1: it was a perfect opportunity really for Jacksonville had just

515
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,720
Speaker 1: kind of fold and say, hey, we're just gonna play

516
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,600
Speaker 1: for the number one pick here and uh not worried

517
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:42,640
Speaker 1: about it, protect our guys. But they went out there

518
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,679
Speaker 1: against the Indianapolis team that was fighting for a playoff spot,

519
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 1: winning their in situation, which is ideal. Uh And and

520
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 1: Jacksonville played really tough. And you you said it, I

521
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 1: mean spending all that money bringing in Christian Kirk, you know,

522
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:58,919
Speaker 1: bringing in Branding Sheriff on that offensive line. Uh, you know,

523
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:02,800
Speaker 1: to uh solid players on defense as as rookies with

524
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:06,040
Speaker 1: Trayvon Walker and Devin Lloyd. I mean, the pieces are

525
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:09,199
Speaker 1: in place, I think for a pretty dramatic turnaround. And

526
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:12,399
Speaker 1: you never know how things look on the field until

527
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 1: you get on the field and start playing. But I'm

528
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:17,800
Speaker 1: really excited to see what this team is going to do. Robert,

529
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:20,720
Speaker 1: of course, you're running back in the National Football League

530
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,679
Speaker 1: for a long time, couple of Pro Bowls, so you

531
00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:27,359
Speaker 1: probably have a good understanding of what both Travis Etn Jr.

532
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:31,040
Speaker 1: And James Robinson are having to come back from. Travis

533
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:32,879
Speaker 1: c t and of course miss last season with the

534
00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:36,600
Speaker 1: list Frank injury and his foot. James Robinson is good

535
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,639
Speaker 1: to go. He's clear to play Sunday after an achilles

536
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 1: injury late last season. Having both of those guys back

537
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:47,680
Speaker 1: on the field is fairly remarkable considering what ten fifteen

538
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:49,520
Speaker 1: years ago in the NFL. If you had one of

539
00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:53,160
Speaker 1: those injuries, it was a career possibility. Your career could

540
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:55,199
Speaker 1: have been over the fact that they're back, that's a

541
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:58,720
Speaker 1: boost for this team. Yeah, it certainly is. And you know,

542
00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 1: quarterback's best friend. Only to have you know that that

543
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:03,920
Speaker 1: that stout running game, and then you know, you bring

544
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 1: in Evan Ingram and hopefully he can get over some

545
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:09,120
Speaker 1: of those drop issues and you you gotta gotta target there.

546
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,679
Speaker 1: So quarterbacks love to have a solid running game and

547
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 1: a tight end that they can drop the ball off too.

548
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:17,440
Speaker 1: So I think it's it's it's exciting, really, I'm sure,

549
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:21,040
Speaker 1: especially for Trevor Lawrence to have those guys back and

550
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,400
Speaker 1: you get something a little bit different out of those guys.

551
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,480
Speaker 1: James Robinson. James Robinson more of a you know, a

552
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 1: banger type et n really not known for that, but

553
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,919
Speaker 1: certainly known for his pass catching ability, uh and and

554
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:35,159
Speaker 1: really even to line up on the outside, which we

555
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,920
Speaker 1: saw a lot of out of him at Clemson with

556
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:41,920
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence. So excited once again really for the pieces

557
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:45,119
Speaker 1: that this offense has to work with, and with an

558
00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:48,440
Speaker 1: offensive mind like Doug Peterson who knows what you see.

559
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:50,360
Speaker 1: You know, I know in the pasty've done a lot

560
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:53,679
Speaker 1: of uh two tight sets, uh, you know, but I

561
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:57,119
Speaker 1: think that, you know, with versatile chess pieces like he

562
00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:00,720
Speaker 1: has in this offense, I think it's it's to be. Uh,

563
00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:04,880
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a defensive coordinator's worst nightmare, especially going

564
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:07,879
Speaker 1: into Week one, because you just don't know what you'll see. Hey, Robert,

565
00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 1: did you ever have an injury like this? I mean

566
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:12,440
Speaker 1: a lot of the coming back is a running back

567
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:16,080
Speaker 1: with something with your feet or lower extremities down there.

568
00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:19,159
Speaker 1: It's above the shoulders getting past it mentally, did you

569
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,359
Speaker 1: ever have anything like this? Yeah? So I tore my

570
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:23,359
Speaker 1: a c L my rookie season, and I tore my

571
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 1: m c L pcl uh in my fourth season. It

572
00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:31,200
Speaker 1: was relatively healthy for my last four years. But yeah,

573
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:35,199
Speaker 1: it's a you're you're definitely you know, spot on in

574
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:38,320
Speaker 1: your analysis there, because there is the physical part of it,

575
00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:41,280
Speaker 1: you know, is it ready, but then convincing yourself that

576
00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:42,760
Speaker 1: you can go out there and do the same things.

577
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:44,840
Speaker 1: I'll never forget coming back after the a c L

578
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:48,280
Speaker 1: got into one of those one on one pass blocking

579
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 1: drills against the linebackers, which hated anyway, but especially that

580
00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:56,480
Speaker 1: here um and uh you know got uh it was

581
00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:58,159
Speaker 1: it was a little bit wet on the grass that

582
00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 1: day and during the drill, you know, my right knee

583
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:04,040
Speaker 1: to it just kind of uh, you know, lost my

584
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 1: right foot, lost footing and stretched out my right knee,

585
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,440
Speaker 1: and you know, from that point forward it was like, hey,

586
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:11,960
Speaker 1: you know, I guess it's okay, and uh, you know,

587
00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:14,240
Speaker 1: it's a it's definitely a hurdle that you have to

588
00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,639
Speaker 1: get over and after you've been through it once and

589
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 1: certainly don't want to have to go through it again,

590
00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:21,920
Speaker 1: but much easier the second time around again. The exclusive
