Speaker 3: James Gladstone is here, General landon.

17
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 4: Questions being JP. We're just having a conversation James about

18
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 4: practice squad and can you protect players because you guys

19
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 4: had transaction where Colin Sunders was released Branson Combs was

20
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,279
Speaker 4: elevated off of the practice squad to the active roster,

21
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:20,000
Speaker 4: and was were you out of elevations opportunities with Branson

22
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 4: Combs at this point?

23
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:25,399
Speaker 2: You know what we So each player is allotted three

24
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 2: different standard elevations from the practice squad before you're forced

25
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 2: to move them up to the fifty three man Act

26
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 2: one roster if you want them active for a fourth time.

27
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 2: So Branson had been elevated two times prior to this

28
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,759
Speaker 2: week one left. Yeah, but what you end up doing

29
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 2: in those instances is guys go have an opportunity to

30
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 2: not only perform for their team, but also showcase their

31
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 2: skill set for the other thirty one teams to consider

32
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 2: coaching them off of your practice squad, which leads to

33
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 2: my next by signing them to their active roster.

34
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 4: Okay, so can you protect guys on your practice squad

35
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,639
Speaker 4: from other teams poaching them and signing them to their

36
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 4: active roster.

37
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 2: There's no protection mechanism. What you would be forced to

38
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 2: do in that situation is make a decision on whether

39
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:21,800
Speaker 2: or not you say, hey, you're more than welcome to

40
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:22,359
Speaker 2: remain on.

41
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 4: Our practice squad.

42
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 2: You can pursue the opportunity that you may have elsewhere,

43
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 2: or hey, you know what, we would actually like to

44
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 2: sign you to our fifty three rand roster knowing that

45
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 2: you have that opportunity.

46
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,399
Speaker 4: Because the difference I mean, I brought this up to JP.

47
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 4: You can't protect guys because that's money, right, you know,

48
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:41,800
Speaker 4: I mean the difference of a guy on a practice

49
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 4: squad he makes what ballpark. Give people an idea it made.

50
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 4: It's different twenty thousand a week versus the NFL minimum,

51
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 4: which is what.

52
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 3: Quite a bit higher, a lot higher.

53
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, triple that triple that is sixty grand a week.

54
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:57,519
Speaker 4: It's a lot of money, you know. So that's what

55
00:02:57,600 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 4: I'm saying that you can't You can't keep a guy

56
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 4: from making money, you know.

57
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:06,080
Speaker 2: I mean some players will opt, based off of situation dynamics,

58
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 2: personal life, to remain in the situation that they're in

59
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 2: because it's what they know as opposed to entering the unknown.

60
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 4: Right.

61
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 2: So there are some times where guys will say, I

62
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:20,799
Speaker 2: appreciate you guys considering me for a proach, but I'm

63
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 2: gonna go ahead and remain here because I see a

64
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 2: vision for the future, or I like the system better

65
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 2: than the system might be entering all those different types.

66
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 4: Of things, and then I El's got to have had

67
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 4: an impact on that, because I mean, I mean nowadays,

68
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 4: some guys that might be on a practice squad got

69
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,920
Speaker 4: a little a little bit of cash, you know, where

70
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 4: some guys that came to the league, you and Tony's

71
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 4: yer ain't got no cash, no cash coming in from

72
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 4: college other than maybe some debt. And you know, of

73
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,119
Speaker 4: course at Clemson, guys that went to Clemson got paid.

74
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 5: Back in the day pre n il earlier.

75
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 4: It was a secret out.

76
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 3: Of McDonald's bags.

77
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 2: Wow, I will say this, Branson combs more than deserving

78
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 2: of a place of the fifty three man roster. Obviously

79
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 2: elevated twice so far this season from our practice squad,

80
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 2: had a really stable sound, performing throughout training camp in

81
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:17,359
Speaker 2: the preseason, really impactful two games on special teams. For

82
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 2: see a future for him, and didn't want to didn't

83
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 2: want to break from that, you know, wanted to maintain

84
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 2: the course and see that through. He is a meaningful

85
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 2: piece to the puzzle and the larger scheme of things,

86
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 2: and so I wanted to make sure that we kept

87
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 2: a good thing going.

88
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 5: All right.

89
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:37,159
Speaker 3: Jaguars Chargers this week how was the vibe in the

90
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 3: building coming out of that Texans game? Obviously had to

91
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 3: be a tough Monday around here, certainly, Jimmy, what do

92
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:43,359
Speaker 3: you think that.

93
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 5: That's a great question, that's the dumbest question you've ever asked.

94
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,359
Speaker 2: Now here's the thing that wow, I'll label that is

95
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:55,840
Speaker 2: you can I'm joking. Look, we're we're all humans, right,

96
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 2: So you're gonna you're gonna feel some type of way

97
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,719
Speaker 2: about having started the game the way that we wanted

98
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,600
Speaker 2: to right. We wanted to make sure that we were

99
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,720
Speaker 2: felt right from the jump and we're able to see

100
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 2: that come to fruition. As a part of that, we

101
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 2: let it slip in the fourth quarter and that's painful

102
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 2: to sit with. But we can't let it beat us twice.

103
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,039
Speaker 2: And you know, that's been a theme as a part

104
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 2: of this week's work, as a part of the return

105
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,400
Speaker 2: to office next day, is this is not a game

106
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 2: that will beat us twice. We got to move forward.

107
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 2: We got to continue to find ways for growth and

108
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 2: different modes of earning an edge because we lost our

109
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 2: edge in the fourth quarter. And you know, got to

110
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 2: give the Houston Texans a lot of credit for their

111
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 2: their fight their will because that's not easy to do

112
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 2: what they did, and you know, it's it's certainly something

113
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,839
Speaker 2: that's challenging to palate. But we got to move forward

114
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,160
Speaker 2: and that's what we're looking to do.

115
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, and I think confident that will happen. I mean,

116
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 5: it's stings, so all joking aside. I mean, it's miserable

117
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,719
Speaker 5: to lose any game, but giving up a lead like

118
00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:59,600
Speaker 5: we had, but it's not you know, you go back

119
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,040
Speaker 5: to early season in Cincinnati is a game we controlled

120
00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 5: the entire game and we're only down for what twenty seconds?

121
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,680
Speaker 5: Twenty nine seconds in the entire game. Felt like we

122
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 5: gave one away there as well. The response coming back

123
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:16,600
Speaker 5: out of Cincinnati was a really good one. Played the

124
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 5: Texas next week, came out, we're physical and got to win,

125
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 5: and so have a lot of confidence in this group

126
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 5: to respond. I think William's done a great job of

127
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 5: the communication postgame on Monday, expectations, how where we need

128
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 5: to improve, what we can learn from it, and then

129
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 5: washing it starting Wednesday and looking towards the Chargers, because

130
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:39,680
Speaker 5: that's all you can really do. And Liam said in

131
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,240
Speaker 5: the team meeting with James, just said, here is a

132
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 5: great way to think about. You don't want to get

133
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:47,040
Speaker 5: beat twice by the same team. And if you hang

134
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 5: on to it, Jeff, you remember this as a player,

135
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,360
Speaker 5: you start thinking about what happened the week before on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday.

136
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 5: You're not getting ready, you're not focused on the game plan,

137
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:59,360
Speaker 5: your mind's distracted, and you're just not giving your best

138
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 5: performance to prepare for the game coming up.

139
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:03,920
Speaker 4: Because you can use it as motivation.

140
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 5: The motivation is fine. The anger, the you know, disappointment,

141
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 5: the wanting to get that bad taste out of your mouth,

142
00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 5: those are all positives that you can use. But we

143
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 5: can't do is dwell on the missed opportunity, or dwell

144
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:23,040
Speaker 5: on the mistake, or dwell on man, if we had

145
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 5: just done X, Y or Z, we would have won

146
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 5: the game. Those are fruitless conversations because they don't it's

147
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 5: not going to change what happened this past weekend. We

148
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 5: lost the football game they deserve to win. They played

149
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 5: four quarters, we played three. That's what happens, and we

150
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,360
Speaker 5: got to you know, rebound from it. And I got

151
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:46,080
Speaker 5: a lot of confidence in the organization, players, coaches, everyone

152
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 5: involved to be ready to go and play a really

153
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 5: good Los Angeles Chargers team.

154
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 3: That's fine.

155
00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 4: Times I did it. I did it with the Raiders.

156
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 4: I was like Oakland Raiders. You know, part of you know,

157
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 4: part of the fabric, but part of this past game

158
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 4: is not necessarily what you didn't do, but it's also

159
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 4: part of what they did. Absolutely, I gotta say Danil

160
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 4: Hunter is an exceptional football player. Will Anderson junior exceptional

161
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 4: football player. If those two guys aren't on the field

162
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 4: for the Houston Texans, that doesn't happen. They're great players

163
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:26,520
Speaker 4: playing themself.

164
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 5: And if you look at the whole defense and what

165
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 5: they did and how they play, they came out from

166
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 5: the start and they played their style football. There's a

167
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 5: reason why they're the number one defense in the league.

168
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 5: Giving up I think fourteen maybe fifteen. Now we scored

169
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 5: twenty nine. You think, man, that's a lot of points.

170
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,079
Speaker 5: And then offensively, give them a lot of credit. They

171
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,679
Speaker 5: were punching the mouth early. They struggled. It would have

172
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 5: been very easy with Davis Mills backup getting first start

173
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 5: in a long time out a couple offensive linemen to say, hey,

174
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:59,240
Speaker 5: just not our day and give them, give their staff

175
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:01,720
Speaker 5: and give their players on offense a ton of credit

176
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 5: because that's the group that came back. Defense you know,

177
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 5: got stops late when they needed to, but really that

178
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,640
Speaker 5: offense did a great job. And it's sometimes all you

179
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 5: can do is tip your hat and say, Okay, you know,

180
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 5: they beat us, and we could sit here and say, man,

181
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 5: if we've done this or that or this, well that's

182
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,080
Speaker 5: didn't happen. So now you've got to take that energy,

183
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,080
Speaker 5: focus on the Chargers and get ready to have a

184
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 5: good week of practice, which we've had two good, very

185
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 5: good days. Guys are walked in ready to go and

186
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 5: uh and then get ready to play ball on Sunday.

187
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:35,079
Speaker 4: All right, it's not fun to dwell on the negatives

188
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:40,400
Speaker 4: so much the positive in that game. Parker Washington's just fantastic.

189
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 4: Can can you extend us contract right now? James?

190
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,440
Speaker 2: No, you can't. So there's a you know, a three

191
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 2: year runway before you can have any of those conversations.

192
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 2: So the earliest that we can do that extend the

193
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,160
Speaker 2: new new league year kicks off.

194
00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 5: Okay in March, you know the second Yeah, okay, but

195
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 5: he's to your point.

196
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:10,680
Speaker 2: He is showing us so many positive signs and contributing

197
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 2: in so many different ways and at so many critical moments, right,

198
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 2: He's doing everything that we need from and I think

199
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 2: that's a lot of the message that you know, myself,

200
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 2: Liam Tony wanted to share with anybody that was in

201
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 2: this organization, this football team, to be nothing more than

202
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:34,439
Speaker 2: who they are. And I think that's exactly what Parker's

203
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,400
Speaker 2: leaning into. He's not stretching to be more than that,

204
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,960
Speaker 2: and it's really paying dividends, right, And when you're not

205
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 2: trying to play some version of hero ball, but just

206
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:46,840
Speaker 2: ball the way, you know, I think it can be

207
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 2: very productive. And I think he's a very clear sign

208
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,920
Speaker 2: to that because coming into the season, it's not like

209
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:57,760
Speaker 2: he was a topic of conversation across the wide landscape, right,

210
00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 2: But now there's been attrition over the course of the season,

211
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,439
Speaker 2: and he's been given an opportunity to shine. He's stepped

212
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 2: in and you know, even when he's not returning punts

213
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 2: for touchdowns, he's gaining good ground on a number of them.

214
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 5: Right.

215
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 3: We get two.

216
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 2: Punts punp return opportunities in that Houston game, both of

217
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 2: which were very effective. Right.

218
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 4: So the one return, though, you got five guys that

219
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:23,840
Speaker 4: he made miss Oh yeah, he.

220
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 5: Broke You watched the poor long snapper coming down there,

221
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,440
Speaker 5: and I thought he was still going to be an

222
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 5: ir the way. But I'll say this about just add

223
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,600
Speaker 5: one thing to Park because I think what our fancy

224
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:39,200
Speaker 5: and the public scene and everyone covering him is see

225
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,319
Speaker 5: the production that he's had this year in special teams,

226
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:44,719
Speaker 5: opportunities getting as a wide receiver, and how he's taking

227
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 5: advantage of it. I'll go back to how he moves

228
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 5: in this building all the way back to the off season.

229
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,120
Speaker 5: You get here to come work out us old guys,

230
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,840
Speaker 5: get here early to work out, call five thirty whatever

231
00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 5: time in the morning off season, Park or Washington in

232
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:04,840
Speaker 5: the weight room, work in his body, working on flexibility,

233
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 5: working on you know, hand eye, all the different things.

234
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:13,400
Speaker 5: And that continued throughout the entire offseason. Come into camp.

235
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 5: How he approached camp, taking the extensive playbook that you know,

236
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:23,400
Speaker 5: we put a lot on them. Mentally this offseason took

237
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 5: a huge jump on the mental side from end of

238
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 5: OTAs shows up the training camp ready to go, not

239
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 5: just physically but mentally. And so you've seen a guy

240
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 5: that the output the outcome has been very positive. But

241
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 5: I go back to the process that we take ask

242
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,200
Speaker 5: these players to do, but then him doing the extra

243
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 5: work to be a real pro. And I think he's

244
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:50,280
Speaker 5: seen the dividends and it's showing up, and he's a

245
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:50,800
Speaker 5: big part.

246
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:52,200
Speaker 2: Of what we do what doesn't show up on the

247
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,600
Speaker 2: stat sheet. All right, Let's rewind to the Las Vegas

248
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 2: Raiders game.

249
00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 3: Right end a half.

250
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 2: He ends up up catching a very challenging contested op

251
00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 2: that puts us into field goal range that allows then

252
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:14,199
Speaker 2: us to try what would become a historic kick. Fast

253
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 2: forward now to our final drive of the game. Same

254
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 2: thing occurs. It gets called back for a penalty on

255
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 2: the offensive line, but nonetheless put us in an opportunity to,

256
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 2: let's call it, win the game. And so those critical moments,

257
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 2: while again one of those is in on the stat sheet,

258
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:37,840
Speaker 2: are really what can be attention grabbing right. Who is

259
00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 2: their best when their best is required? He certainly has

260
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 2: shown that a couple different times now over the course

261
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 2: of the season, and something that, as Tony alluded to,

262
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:51,000
Speaker 2: is by no mistake, he's putting in the necessary time

263
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:53,959
Speaker 2: and effort in order to ensure that when he has

264
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 2: the opt to do so, he sees it come to life.

265
00:13:56,960 --> 00:14:00,200
Speaker 3: Let's return and we'll look forward to the seven in

266
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 3: three LA Chargers coming to the bank. Jags haven't been

267
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,520
Speaker 3: at home in forever. It feels like what thirty something

268
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 3: days been awhile, we'll need that fan support this week.

269
00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:11,280
Speaker 3: We'll get into the Chargers when we come back. It's

270
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 3: Jags HQ on the Jaguars Radio Network.

271
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 1: Welcome Back, Jaggs HQ presented by Fresh from Florida. Continues

272
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 1: right now.

273
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 3: Welcome back. It is Jaggs HQ presented by Fresh from Florida,

274
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 3: JP Shadwick, Jeff Logoman from Undai Studios at the Miller

275
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 3: Electric Center, Tony Vaselli, James Gladstone in with us as well.

276
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 3: Ahead of this Chargers Jaguars matchup delivered by CSX, first

277
00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 3: meeting between the teams since the twenty twenty two AFC

278
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 3: Wild Card playoff game. The wild comeback down twenty seven

279
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 3: to nothing, Trevor Lawrence with the three second half touchdown passes,

280
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 3: one right before halftime. It really kind of jumpstarted things

281
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 3: and the Jaguars won on a walk off field goal

282
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 3: in that game.

283
00:14:57,560 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 4: It's been a little while, a.

284
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 3: Few players from both teams still around. That's in the past, though.

285
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 3: We're looking aheading out of this Chargers team's now seven

286
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 3: and three. Justin Herbert is what like the most hit

287
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 3: quarterback in football, But it doesn't seem to face if

288
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 3: number one in completions and attempts, number two in yardage,

289
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 3: number three touchdowns, you can run the football. He's a

290
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 3: total package.

291
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:21,400
Speaker 2: James, Oh, yeah, this is the sibling rivalry game, right, Yeah,

292
00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 2: Patrick versus Justin.

293
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 3: Patrick's on the practice squad.

294
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 4: Here's a tight end. And that is Patrick, the younger

295
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 4: brother of Justin Herbert.

296
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 2: That's right to my knowledge, right, yes, yes.

297
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 5: He's younger.

298
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,440
Speaker 4: So he's on your practice squad and he's a tight end.

299
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,320
Speaker 2: What's his highway that I don't know off in my head,

300
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 2: I'd be lying if I told you exactly.

301
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:43,280
Speaker 5: We don't have it here.

302
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:45,240
Speaker 4: Go to Jaguars dot com. Here in the.

303
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 5: Sixty three.

304
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:52,160
Speaker 3: Six, five fifty five.

305
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 2: I like you got to wait, right, they look identical,

306
00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:00,360
Speaker 2: almost like their brothers or something. Yeah, it's it's.

307
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 4: Interesting, I mean, truly twin shocking.

308
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:10,160
Speaker 3: But Herbert's got it all man, then the quarterbacks certainly Justin.

309
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, he is doing such a phenomenal job leading that

310
00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:19,479
Speaker 2: football team. It's a it's a really stable effective operation offensively, defensively,

311
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 2: special teams unit is super solid. I think when you

312
00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 2: look around the league, this is the time of year

313
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 2: that everyone has experienced some version of attrition at any

314
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,680
Speaker 2: one given position, in particular across the team as a whole. Right,

315
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:37,000
Speaker 2: their offensive line has gone through it. They lost both

316
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 2: tackles and as a part of that.

317
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 4: And tackles, yes, very really good.

318
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,160
Speaker 2: Right, So you're talking about one of the better players

319
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 2: in the league, and any quarterbacks is going to feel

320
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 2: the pains of that. Justin's overcoming it and he's operating

321
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 2: that offense at a at a high tick and certainly

322
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:56,920
Speaker 2: put them in positions to win football games consistently. And

323
00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 2: they're coming through when it's not always clean lost running

324
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:02,960
Speaker 2: backs and lost running backs, and they're an outfit that

325
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:06,400
Speaker 2: wants to run the football. So you know, you got

326
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:10,159
Speaker 2: to give everybody that goes through some high volume of

327
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,880
Speaker 2: injury toll a lot of credit. But just about every

328
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 2: team's dealing with it to some degree at different position groups,

329
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,560
Speaker 2: et cetera. And you know, I think for them, it's

330
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:23,360
Speaker 2: it's certainly still the same philosophy, regardless of people being

331
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 2: out It is their DNA. They want to run the football.

332
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,240
Speaker 2: They do have some guys who are very effective on

333
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 2: critical downs, third downs at receiver and a rookie tight

334
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:37,040
Speaker 2: end who's really come into life. So their passing attack

335
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 2: is no joke. It's you know, there's some guys you

336
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:40,560
Speaker 2: really got to account for.

337
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:43,080
Speaker 4: That third down guy you're talking about, Keenan Allen's a

338
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 4: big part of that. He's pretty pretty darn good to

339
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:47,880
Speaker 4: still good though, still can play some football.

340
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,000
Speaker 2: There's no doubt getting back on track. You got Lad

341
00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:52,440
Speaker 2: mcconkeye who can dice just about anybody.

342
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:53,359
Speaker 4: Up a football player.

343
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:55,399
Speaker 2: Now, there's no doubt about. It's a great label to

344
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:56,240
Speaker 2: attached to them.

345
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, the question that I have is that you know

346
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:04,080
Speaker 4: they got issues that tackle. The Texans had some issues

347
00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 4: that tackle. How do your does your guys, you know,

348
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:11,199
Speaker 4: your two edge guys get better to take advantage of

349
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:14,359
Speaker 4: a situation like this? Can can they raise their level

350
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 4: of play in a in a in an area that

351
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:20,240
Speaker 4: is a little concern for your defense? Now you're near

352
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,560
Speaker 4: the bottom and third down production, you're at the bottom

353
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:25,960
Speaker 4: in sacks. How do you get that? I don't want

354
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:27,879
Speaker 4: to say flip it, because flippant would be you know,

355
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:29,639
Speaker 4: going to the top, which is not going to happen,

356
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:30,760
Speaker 4: but how to improve that.

357
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,480
Speaker 5: We can't reach it. We can't catch the Broncos at forty.

358
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 5: I don't think six x in one game.

359
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 4: I think that's gonna lie.

360
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 5: I mean, listen, at the end of the day, we

361
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 5: just got to keep on getting better. And I think

362
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:43,720
Speaker 5: there's nobody who wants to get to the quarterback more

363
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:48,199
Speaker 5: than Josh and Traymont, and so they're going to have opportunities.

364
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:51,520
Speaker 5: But then we need to put our guys in positions

365
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 5: maybe you know, there's obviously you can do games different stunts.

366
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:57,959
Speaker 5: You know, obviously if you've watched this blitz at times,

367
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:01,159
Speaker 5: and so I think it's not just those two guys.

368
00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:04,639
Speaker 5: And I think so often when you have expectations to

369
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,120
Speaker 5: get a bunch of sacks and it's not going, what's

370
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 5: the natural thing to do? Start pressing. And when you

371
00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 5: start pressing, what happens? You actually start playing worse, getting

372
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 5: out of what you're supposed to be doing and really

373
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:18,879
Speaker 5: hurting the team. So, Jeff, you know this is a

374
00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:23,440
Speaker 5: defensive lineman. Sacks are a combination of both tight coverage,

375
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:27,560
Speaker 5: getting the quarterback to hold the ball, and winning upfront,

376
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 5: and so everything needs to improve at all levels. No

377
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,119
Speaker 5: different than if we talk about the other side of

378
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 5: the ball, about Trevor getting sacked last week. We put

379
00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:39,560
Speaker 5: a go it's a great front. Is that all the

380
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 5: offensive line's fault. No, it's never just the offensive line.

381
00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:45,880
Speaker 5: It's the quarterback with his drops, it's the backs picking protection,

382
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,719
Speaker 5: it's receivers winning and running the right depths of routes.

383
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:54,160
Speaker 5: And so it's no different when you talk about sacks. Yeah, obviously, Trayvon, Josh, Eric,

384
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:56,160
Speaker 5: all those guys want to go. It's not like they're

385
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 5: not trying well. We don't want to get into a

386
00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:00,919
Speaker 5: situation where they start trying to press do more than

387
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 5: they're being asked to do. And so it's the whole

388
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,840
Speaker 5: unit back half that's tighten up the coverage a little bit,

389
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:12,239
Speaker 5: take some chances as Campion has done all year, blits

390
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:15,639
Speaker 5: a Tommy downs, maybe put some more games in there. Whatever.

391
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,120
Speaker 5: That looks like they have a game plan, but really

392
00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:20,880
Speaker 5: it's just everyone just go do your job and we'll

393
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,960
Speaker 5: be fine. Josh and Trayvon did not forget how to

394
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 5: rush the passer. Eric Armistead had a good week last week,

395
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:30,919
Speaker 5: put some pressure on Davis Mills. So you have some

396
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,159
Speaker 5: confidence there, and so I think guys just got to

397
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:36,399
Speaker 5: keep on going and take a deep breath, because the

398
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 5: one thing I know is the player. When you start pressing,

399
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:42,120
Speaker 5: bad things tend to happen. You don't get more productive

400
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:46,520
Speaker 5: when you relax. Go trust the call, go trust your technique,

401
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:49,880
Speaker 5: go trust your ability, and just go play. Whether it's

402
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 5: the back half or the front. Think, good things tend

403
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:55,400
Speaker 5: to happen. I think those guys are in the right

404
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,200
Speaker 5: mindset and looking forward to seeing them getting after the quarterback.

405
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 4: Part of the old cous You talk about Russian cover

406
00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:04,359
Speaker 4: and obviously goes hand in hand the cover guys. Okay,

407
00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 4: Travis Hunter's gone for the year LCL surgery. I think

408
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:11,320
Speaker 4: everybody is aware of that. Jordan Lewis has a neck.

409
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,399
Speaker 4: Eric Murray, who is on IR, has a neck. How

410
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:19,120
Speaker 4: are those two guys doing and what's the future outlook

411
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:19,960
Speaker 4: for those two guys?

412
00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:22,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, with Eric being on IR, there's a

413
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 2: certain threshold. He's still got a couple more weeks after

414
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:26,960
Speaker 2: this before he can actually so.

415
00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:31,320
Speaker 4: Too. So he's got two more He's got a miss.

416
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,240
Speaker 2: That's right, in order to get to a place where

417
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:35,760
Speaker 2: we can open up his practice window. Jordan on the

418
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 2: other hand, is at in a position where considered for

419
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:43,240
Speaker 2: this week, likely more the week after. And nonetheless, right,

420
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 2: you think about what they meant to the back half,

421
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:51,320
Speaker 2: right from a veteran presence, from a communications standpoint, mastery

422
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 2: of the system, all those types of things, those are

423
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 2: hard to replicate, hard to replace, and still continuing to

424
00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:02,679
Speaker 2: grow within the space without them on the grass and

425
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,720
Speaker 2: in particular then Travis as well, who filled a void

426
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:10,240
Speaker 2: on the outside. And so that's some waters that are

427
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:13,960
Speaker 2: being navigated and require you know, next man up mentality

428
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,879
Speaker 2: and continuing to try to marry both coverage and rush

429
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,160
Speaker 2: together and find the right balance so that we can

430
00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 2: strike not only impact on the quarterback behind the line

431
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,920
Speaker 2: of scrimmage, but also the turnovers that we know can

432
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 2: generate a lot of good for our football team.

433
00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:32,240
Speaker 5: And you look at that missing those veteran guys. Obviously

434
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 5: you want all your guys out there. We just talked

435
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 5: about the Charges with their two best tackles out part

436
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,760
Speaker 5: of the NFL same time, great opportunity for guys. I

437
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,280
Speaker 5: think you look at last week, John Jones thrown into action,

438
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:46,440
Speaker 5: big pick early, had some PBu great job, he made

439
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:51,160
Speaker 5: some very impactful plays and he's gonna get better, more reps,

440
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,440
Speaker 5: more opportunity, more confidence, get better, and so there's opportunities

441
00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,480
Speaker 5: Antonio Johnson being asked to play more than he has

442
00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:00,600
Speaker 5: in his career, opportunities to start play more down he

443
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 5: So typically you can start giving these guys opportunities. Is

444
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:06,960
Speaker 5: it always gonna be perfect? Is always gonna be cleaned?

445
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 5: We have a bunch to clean up. But at the

446
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:11,000
Speaker 5: same time, those guys are getting more and more confident,

447
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:13,959
Speaker 5: being comfortable in the situation, things they have not been

448
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 5: asked to do in their career before. The more reps

449
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:18,760
Speaker 5: you get, so got a lot of confidence in those guys.

450
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:22,840
Speaker 5: So obviously you always want your frontline guys out there,

451
00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 5: the guys that you guys like Eric Murray and Jordan

452
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,360
Speaker 5: Lewis because of their experience. But at the same time,

453
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,880
Speaker 5: you got guys getting opportunities and looking forward to them

454
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 5: to go make the most of it.

455
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:36,280
Speaker 3: Let's return, we'll dig into the Chargers defense and what

456
00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:38,159
Speaker 3: they have to offer at all levels.

457
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:38,959
Speaker 5: So let's go.

458
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:39,879
Speaker 3: It's a lot.

459
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:44,360
Speaker 5: It's it's a lot your expert opinion, Yeah, okay, thank you.

460
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:45,840
Speaker 5: I'll share that with the head coach.

461
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:52,439
Speaker 3: And it's it's a lot. It's Jagg's HQ. You're a

00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:22,119
Speaker 3: Radio Network. Taking a final look at the Chargers Jaguars

469
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:26,840
Speaker 3: matchup in Week eleven. Well, we went through the Chargers offense.

470
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:28,680
Speaker 3: Let's take a look at their defense, and they rank

471
00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 3: highly in a lot of categories. They are certainly in

472
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 3: the pass rush. I think they're type for fifth in

473
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:36,679
Speaker 3: the league in saxis years to Twoey Polosu, you're a

474
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,479
Speaker 3: usc guy. Tony is getting after eight sacks this year,

475
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:41,679
Speaker 3: a bunch of other guys with four or more sacks,

476
00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:44,440
Speaker 3: So they kind of spread the wealth defensively. Upfront.

477
00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 2: It feels like, oh they're you know what, their capacity

478
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:51,119
Speaker 2: against the pass game is really high. They do an

479
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:55,080
Speaker 2: effective job. We talk about marrying the rush and coverage.

480
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 2: You mentioned how their sack production is sewing itself well,

481
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,040
Speaker 2: a lot of that has to do with the fact

482
00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,479
Speaker 2: that their coverage is so stable and sound. They do

483
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaker 2: not give up easy shots, easy looks. Guys are in

484
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,479
Speaker 2: the right spots at the right times, at the right depth,

485
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 2: and it makes it hard to compete passes with you know,

486
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:17,479
Speaker 2: timing and and cadence. And so that rush has been

487
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 2: getting off and individual effort has gone a long way

488
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:23,240
Speaker 2: across it. Khalil Mack is still doing his thing and

489
00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:26,560
Speaker 2: you know, really earning every bit of what he's getting paid.

490
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:29,600
Speaker 2: And you know, it's not an easy, easy look to

491
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:33,160
Speaker 2: go against. And so the stability across both the front

492
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 2: and the back end with linebackers that can cover, I mean,

493
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:36,920
Speaker 2: it's a it's a tough outfit.

494
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 4: What does Derwin James do to an offensive coordinator?

495
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:44,960
Speaker 2: He forces you to get the binoculars out and try

496
00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:47,199
Speaker 2: to track where the heck he's lining up, you know,

497
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 2: because he can be in a different spot. Let's call it,

498
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:53,879
Speaker 2: three straight plays, three different looks, and you got to

499
00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:57,560
Speaker 2: account for it because he's somebody that's that's a prowler.

500
00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:59,520
Speaker 2: He's going to be on the hunt, and you know,

501
00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:03,240
Speaker 2: you got to understand what what not to you know,

502
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:07,760
Speaker 2: activate in certain moments because he's going to be somebody

503
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:08,959
Speaker 2: that can impact it greatly.

504
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:16,480
Speaker 4: He makes plays that are just physically otherworldly at times,

505
00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:19,160
Speaker 4: the level of strength and speed that he can play

506
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:22,120
Speaker 4: the game at. And you know, I haven't seen him

507
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:24,680
Speaker 4: a lot recently, but I mean when he first came

508
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:27,320
Speaker 4: into the league, it was like, this guy is different.

509
00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:35,640
Speaker 4: And I mean he probably can play safety, nickel linebackers.

510
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:36,760
Speaker 2: And does he can rush?

511
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,600
Speaker 4: Probably? I mean he's got eighteen and a half career sacks.

512
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:40,760
Speaker 4: Could he play corner?

513
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:41,280
Speaker 3: Oh?

514
00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 5: You know what?

515
00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:46,240
Speaker 2: So he certainly shows signs of it out of the slot, right,

516
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:51,160
Speaker 2: And you're you're speaking a lot to physical capabilities, and

517
00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:54,560
Speaker 2: that jumps out think about what goes into being as

518
00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 2: versatile as he is Outside of the physical He is

519
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 2: a smart player that clearly puts in a lot of

520
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:03,960
Speaker 2: time in order to be deployed in the manner that

521
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:08,240
Speaker 2: he is right moved around so frequently those types of players,

522
00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:10,920
Speaker 2: they are committed to their craft, and he has certainly

523
00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:14,680
Speaker 2: done his part to put himself in this position and

524
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:17,440
Speaker 2: and make it so that he's somebody that offensive coordinators,

525
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:20,080
Speaker 2: play callers have to account for in every play.

526
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,199
Speaker 4: The level of strength that he has on some of

527
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:22,920
Speaker 4: his tackles.

528
00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:27,280
Speaker 5: Oh, he's physical. Now he's a football player. About Lad

529
00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:31,040
Speaker 5: McConaughey being the football player. D James is a football player.

530
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:34,240
Speaker 4: Wasn't Kyle Hamilton's same kind of player with the Ravens

531
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 4: for a little bit different.

532
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:39,560
Speaker 5: Probably not as physical or strong, but yeah, same versatil

533
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 5: Klin lineup, so similar genre, but probably not as physical.

534
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 4: Cayle Hampson's got better ball skills.

535
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:52,680
Speaker 5: James, he's the expert.

536
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:57,080
Speaker 3: I'll describe the player right exactly. There you go, all right,

537
00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:01,399
Speaker 3: Jaguars Chargers at home. Only a game here at the

538
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:04,200
Speaker 3: Bank for a long time, two more weeks away after this.

539
00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 3: Every game is certainly important, but here at home, having

540
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:09,600
Speaker 3: that home home field advantage.

541
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:12,920
Speaker 5: For it's the most important game in the history of

542
00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:16,240
Speaker 5: the franchise. It is, yes, it is. Literally, there's not

543
00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:18,439
Speaker 5: There's never been a game played more important than this

544
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 5: one in this franchise. Coming up one o'clock, one o'clock

545
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:27,000
Speaker 5: Sunday at the Bank, Be there, be there. It's gonna

546
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:27,320
Speaker 5: be great.

547

Speaker 3: Listen.

548
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:31,400
Speaker 5: I'm excited, excited for the guys, excited for the whole

551
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:44,440
Speaker 5: ready to play right mindset. It's gonna be a great challenge.

552
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,960
Speaker 5: It's gonna be a like I'm not going to say

553
00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:49,760
Speaker 5: anthing about the outcome, but I'll tell you this, it's

554
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 5: going to be a game that's going to be tough,

555
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:54,600
Speaker 5: physical because both teams are coached that way. Both teams

556
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,360
Speaker 5: are gonna play hard, and I'm looking forward to watching

557
00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:56,840
Speaker 5: our guys go.

558
00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,360
Speaker 4: I always like when I when you put my game

559
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:01,640
Speaker 4: board together, you know he got the coaches, you know,

560
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 4: for the opposing teams. I always like to kind of

561
00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 4: look at the names, just because you always like to

562
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 4: see some of the former guys that played the game.

563
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:13,280
Speaker 4: Two former greats, Mike, excuse me, Nick Hardwick, who played

564
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 4: center for the Chargers for a very long time, was

565
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:19,479
Speaker 4: a really good football player, and not necessarily with the Chargers.

566
00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 4: Here Navarro Bowman, who was a really good linebacker for

567
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 4: the forty.

568
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 5: Nine Ers, is the linebacker coach Haarbar was up in

569
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:28,880
Speaker 5: the Niners. He was one of the part of that

570
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:31,400
Speaker 5: were those great defenses that the Niners had back then.

571
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:36,479
Speaker 3: Chargers Jaguars, gentlemen, I always appreciate it. Thank you ver much.

589
00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:29,680
Speaker 3: here on Jaggs HQ and reaction. I said, well, was

590
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:31,480
Speaker 3: the vibe in the building this week? What do you

591
00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 3: think the vibe was in the building this week?

592
00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:33,960
Speaker 4: Was the answer?

593
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 3: I guess so well.

594
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:38,840
Speaker 4: I appreciate the honesty because you know, There's been some

595
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:40,920
Speaker 4: in the past that might have oh it was great,

596
00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:44,000
Speaker 4: We're outstanding, and to worry lo the reality is is

597
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:47,440
Speaker 4: the reality? Yeah? You know, so I can't expect the

598
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:50,760
Speaker 4: football team feel good after giving up that many points

599
00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:52,960
Speaker 4: in the fourth quarter to a division opponent and an

600
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:56,200
Speaker 4: opportunity to send them into never never land, you know,

601
00:30:56,360 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 4: and an opportunity for you to uh pad your and

602
00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:04,200
Speaker 4: get more twice as many wins as losses, and you

603
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:04,760
Speaker 4: lost it.

604
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 3: But now it's about moving forward, and they've got to

605
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:11,640
Speaker 3: try to move forward with a long injury report here,

606
00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:12,800
Speaker 3: logs and.

607
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:18,280
Speaker 4: Past. This past game had injuries, but then now it

608
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:23,600
Speaker 4: seems to be even greater, which is a challenge. Hopefully

609
00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 4: you can get some guys back, but you hope that

610
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:30,240
Speaker 4: you're not rushing guys back like Brenton Strength, because that's

611
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 4: the one guy that you don't want to have setback with,

612
00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:34,239
Speaker 4: I think, out of any I mean, you don't want

613
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:36,720
Speaker 4: to set back with anybody, but that's you know, he

614
00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:38,680
Speaker 4: had a pretty significant injury to the point where they

615
00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:40,240
Speaker 4: put him on IR. When you have a guy that

616
00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:43,320
Speaker 4: goes on IR and now all of a sudden he's

617
00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:46,320
Speaker 4: coming back from an injury and then to expect him

618
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:50,240
Speaker 4: to have two days of practice essentially because Brady's not

619
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:52,720
Speaker 4: much of a practice and to be back ready to

620
00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 4: play again. That's kind of tough to do. So definitely

621
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:56,880
Speaker 4: got something to keep an eye on.

622
00:31:57,040 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 3: And four offensive linemen are on the injury report this week,

623
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 3: four stars five.

624
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:06,800
Speaker 4: Is mckerry on there too, Yeah, he'd been banged up

625
00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:08,680
Speaker 4: a little bit. So is Robert Hayten to the scenes,

626
00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:11,440
Speaker 4: he's got a grown yeah, growing. And what else we

627
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 4: got Ezra Cleveland and Asra's coming back hopefully week. Maybe

628
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 4: I don't know, we're missing a game.

629
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:18,960
Speaker 3: It's that time of year.

630
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 4: It's that time of year. So I guess cole Van

631
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:25,480
Speaker 4: Landon will plug and play wherever he needs to.

632
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:29,720
Speaker 3: Go again, that's what he does, no doubt about side center.

633
00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:31,320
Speaker 3: I actually talked to him in the locker room today

634
00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:33,239
Speaker 3: about that's just a mentality. He's got to learn all

635
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:34,400
Speaker 3: five positions every week.

636
00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 4: Value man.

637
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:36,959
Speaker 3: I mean it's then it was one game where he's

638
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 3: having to learn tight end and you know, and what

639
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:40,560
Speaker 3: he played pretty.

640
00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 4: Well last week, and you know, in a game that

641
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:44,200
Speaker 4: you know, you're not feeling good about a whole lot,

642
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,120
Speaker 4: you know, like Jarian I think played pretty well. I

643
00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:48,840
Speaker 4: think Cole van Landa played pretty well.

644
00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:51,360
Speaker 3: We've got plenty ahead. Will returned with Fred Taylor, proud

645
00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:53,760
Speaker 3: of the Jaguars running back and get his thoughts on

646
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:56,840
Speaker 3: the week that was and the opponent ahead. And this

647
00:32:57,000 --> 00:33:02,360
Speaker 3: is Jagg's HQ on Jaguars Radio.

648
00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:09,000
Speaker 1: Welcome Back, Jaggs HQ presented by Fresh from Florida continues

649
00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 1: right now.

650
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,400
Speaker 3: Welcome back JP shatterck with you. Jeff Logman back shortly

651
00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:16,280
Speaker 3: prior to the Jaguars running back Fred Taylor joins us

652
00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:18,800
Speaker 3: each week on Countdown to kick Off leading into each

653
00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,720
Speaker 3: game on the Jaguars Radio Network. Caught up with it

654
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:24,880
Speaker 3: earlier today. This week, plenty to discuss about quarterback Trevor

655
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:28,040
Speaker 3: Lawrence moving ahead, but also how the Jaguars pass rush

656
00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:28,959
Speaker 3: gets jump started.

657
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:32,680
Speaker 6: So you got your two bookends. You brought in a

658
00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:36,840
Speaker 6: big time free agent to shore up the middle. Again,

659
00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:40,560
Speaker 6: they play well in spurts, but the consistency isn't there,

660
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,680
Speaker 6: you know, and then those moments when they do get sacked.

661
00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 6: Shout out to Trey Munn. It's followed up by roughing

662
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:50,800
Speaker 6: the passers. So just playing smarter, they're gonna have to

663
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:53,400
Speaker 6: If they're gonna want to play that good zone defense

664
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:56,360
Speaker 6: from behind, they're gonna have to get pressured, you know.

665
00:33:56,480 --> 00:34:00,400
Speaker 6: So it may be the rotation. Addressing the rotation where

666
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:04,040
Speaker 6: everybody's fresh. You know, Josh heinz Allen, he's playing almost

667
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:07,520
Speaker 6: every snap, He's influencing plays. He's playing really well. It's

668
00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:09,839
Speaker 6: just that he doesn't have the sacks to show for it.

669
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:13,160
Speaker 6: But the pressure is there, the influence is there. He's

670
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:15,920
Speaker 6: feeding the other guys, helping the other guys make plays.

671
00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:19,600
Speaker 6: But they I think the consistency is the bigger concern,

672
00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:23,360
Speaker 6: and addressing that by way of rotation, getting some of

673
00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:26,280
Speaker 6: those young fresh legs in there at the right moments

674
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:28,880
Speaker 6: can potentially help them turn that around.

675
00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:31,520
Speaker 3: Fred Taylor with us Prid of the Jaguars running back

676
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 3: and now on the other side of the Jaguars offense

677
00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:38,600
Speaker 3: against this Chargers defensive group that has some veteran players

678
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:40,440
Speaker 3: on the back end, they've got guys up front that

679
00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:43,120
Speaker 3: can get after it. Of course, Khalil Mack all these

680
00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:46,080
Speaker 3: guys have multiple sacks up front, so they know how

681
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:48,920
Speaker 3: to get after the passer. So as the Jaguars offense,

682
00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:51,880
Speaker 3: what's the approach today is especially if it's Trevor Lawrence.

683
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:54,839
Speaker 3: They've talked this week Fred about him letting it rip,

684
00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:57,520
Speaker 3: so to speak, down the stretch. Maybe that's more of

685
00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:00,439
Speaker 3: a broad mentality than a game to game thing.

686
00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:02,160
Speaker 4: But what do you make of all this?

687
00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:02,880
Speaker 5: On offense?

688
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 6: I think the mindset is you want to enter the

689
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:09,759
Speaker 6: game with the thought process of running the ball, establishing

690
00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:13,520
Speaker 6: the run. There's so much more efficient and their offense

691
00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:16,120
Speaker 6: is a little bit more high power when they're able

692
00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:17,960
Speaker 6: to run the ball because they can do so many

693
00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:19,000
Speaker 6: things off of the run.

694
00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:20,200
Speaker 5: You got play action.

695
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:23,360
Speaker 6: Then you also have screen game that you can implement

696
00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:28,040
Speaker 6: play action screen which they've shown to work well. You know,

697
00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:30,879
Speaker 6: even getting the tight ends back involved. You know, off

698
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:34,200
Speaker 6: those actions, you have some boot actions where the tight

699
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:37,520
Speaker 6: ends can seep out until the cover is late, or

700
00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:41,480
Speaker 6: even crossing routes. And these are the things that we

701
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:44,400
Speaker 6: started Jags doing well the first couple of weeks of

702
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:47,120
Speaker 6: the season. And then you take pressure off the offensive

703
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:50,759
Speaker 6: line who has struggled. We could go versus the Texans.

704
00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:54,200
Speaker 6: The Neil Hunter took full advantage of the offensive line

705
00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:57,240
Speaker 6: and created pressures at the right time that put Houston

706
00:35:57,239 --> 00:36:00,040
Speaker 6: in position to come back and win that game. So

707
00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:03,360
Speaker 6: if you're running the ball, you're allowing your defense and

708
00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:06,520
Speaker 6: opportunity to rest up so you can avoid those moments

709
00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:08,719
Speaker 6: that happened a week ago. If you're running the ball,

710
00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 6: you're taking pressure off your offensive line. You don't give

711
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:16,000
Speaker 6: guys like Khalil Mack an opportunity to get excited and

712
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:19,840
Speaker 6: get after the quarterback. He isn't as great of a

713
00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:21,960
Speaker 6: player as he was when he first came in the league,

714
00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:24,440
Speaker 6: but he still has a lot of tank. He a

715
00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:26,560
Speaker 6: lot in his tank. He's a savvy vet. And on

716
00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:30,879
Speaker 6: the back end, Derwin James, he's their coverage leader. He's

717
00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:34,960
Speaker 6: gonna blitch you. Just a great player, potential Hall of

718
00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:38,160
Speaker 6: Famer in my opinion, in Derwin, one of their best

719
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:41,080
Speaker 6: players on the team. You want to influence him as

720
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:43,320
Speaker 6: well in the run game because he's going to be active.

721
00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:47,840
Speaker 6: So run the ball, create some play action opportunities for yourself.

722
00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:50,479
Speaker 6: Get back to the screen game, get the tight ends

723
00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:54,360
Speaker 6: involved and Trevor take advantage of the checkdowns, you know,

724
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:57,759
Speaker 6: get it out to the batch early once they're at

725
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:02,240
Speaker 6: their spots. Allow the linebackers to come up and coverage

726
00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:05,600
Speaker 6: to want to now defend the checkdown game and after

727
00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:09,160
Speaker 6: that play action, have them draw the linebackers in then

728
00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:11,879
Speaker 6: throw the ball behind them with the crossing route game

729
00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:15,480
Speaker 6: in the past game to the receivers and hopefully they

730
00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:19,640
Speaker 6: catch the ball and then that's the formula for success.

731
00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:22,480
Speaker 3: That's Fred Taylor, of course, proud of the Jaguars running

732
00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:25,680
Speaker 3: Back to full conversation soon on the Jaguars Podcast Network

733
00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:28,839
Speaker 3: and you'll hear it again Sunday on Countdown to kick

734
00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:32,359
Speaker 3: Off ahead of the Chargers Jaguars matchup. Jeff Logoman back

735
00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:36,440
Speaker 3: when we return. It's Jaggs HQ on the Jaguars Radio Network.

736
00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:46,840
Speaker 3: Welcome back, It is Jags HQ presented by Fresh from

737
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 3: Florida JP Shadwick, Jeff Logoman. Glad you're with US Chargers

738
00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:56,680
Speaker 3: Jaguars coming up. Well, you'll heard from Fred Taylor there.

739
00:37:57,080 --> 00:37:59,600
Speaker 3: Thanks to him each and every Thursday, have a chance

740
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:01,279
Speaker 3: to catch up with him. We run it a lot

741
00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:05,480
Speaker 3: on the podcast network and on Countdown a kickoff. But yeah,

742
00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:08,640
Speaker 3: running the football is a mentality for the team. Fred

743
00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:11,360
Speaker 3: said it. They don't really have to say it because

744
00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:14,239
Speaker 3: that's what the Jaguars team needs to be leading with

745
00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:17,359
Speaker 3: their running back Travis etn Jr. Well, I think they

746
00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:19,920
Speaker 3: need to be that first and foremost because the quarterback

747
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:21,840
Speaker 3: play is not where it needs to be at yet,

748
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:24,959
Speaker 3: and so to help the quarterback make things easier for him.

749
00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:28,799
Speaker 3: Strong running game makes it a lot easier for the quarterback.

750
00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:32,040
Speaker 3: And give Eat had a lot of credit. He's averaging

751
00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:35,240
Speaker 3: I think yards per game is the highest in his career.

752
00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:39,480
Speaker 3: He is just a notch blow yards per carry, his

753
00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:41,400
Speaker 3: yards per carry best in his career.

754
00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:44,160
Speaker 4: He's doing an exceptional job. And the thing that I

755
00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:46,520
Speaker 4: think that has impressed me most about him is the

756
00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:49,360
Speaker 4: consistency week in and week out in which he's running

757
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:53,719
Speaker 4: the ball with great authority, and that's been the impressive

758
00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:57,000
Speaker 4: part to me. And I think Baseial Tooton, I think

759
00:38:57,040 --> 00:38:59,280
Speaker 4: there's still a lot of meat left on the bone

760
00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:02,640
Speaker 4: with him for this offense and for him once he's

761
00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:05,960
Speaker 4: on the field, and also some I think some creative things.

762
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:08,880
Speaker 4: At some point they may do even more of the

763
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:12,120
Speaker 4: two backs on the field at the same time. The

764
00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:15,480
Speaker 4: Wildcat was kind of a little bit of a change

765
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:17,439
Speaker 4: up pace and I got a little bit maybe too

766
00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:19,839
Speaker 4: creative a little bit on one play. But that kind

767
00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:23,360
Speaker 4: of happens when you do certain things, but give a

768
00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:26,920
Speaker 4: lot of credit to him because he is keeping this offense.

769
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:30,680
Speaker 4: I think afloat with the chance in the passing game, though,

770
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:34,359
Speaker 4: it needs to start finding its rhythm. You know, we're

771
00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:37,479
Speaker 4: you know, you understand that this is the first year

772
00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:40,719
Speaker 4: in the system for Trevor Lawrence. We're getting at the

773
00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:43,960
Speaker 4: point now to where you want to start seeing that

774
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:47,480
Speaker 4: comfort and that experience start to pay off.

775
00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:50,600
Speaker 3: I mean, they've told him to let it rip this week.

776
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:53,279
Speaker 3: Head coach Liam Cohen had that conversation with him.

777
00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:56,800
Speaker 4: Well, and he's right. I mean that's and I think

778
00:39:57,239 --> 00:40:00,319
Speaker 4: talking with Mark Duffner earlier, the definition of letter rip

779
00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:05,239
Speaker 4: means make the right decision, make it quick, and let

780
00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:08,000
Speaker 4: it go. You know, it doesn't mean just start throwing

781
00:40:08,040 --> 00:40:11,200
Speaker 4: the ball okay and the tight windows that don't exist

782
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:13,879
Speaker 4: just to rip it. I mean, it's not about that.

783
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:19,080
Speaker 4: It's about still being smart with the ball, but recognizing it,

784
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:23,120
Speaker 4: having the confidence that you're seeing what you're believing, and

785
00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:26,480
Speaker 4: then not hesitating to make the throw to get Oh,

786
00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:29,600
Speaker 4: let me get a micro second of confirmation, because a

787
00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:33,480
Speaker 4: lot of times in the NFL, that microsecond of confirmation

788
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:36,719
Speaker 4: that sometimes you feel you need as a quarterback closes

789
00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:40,520
Speaker 4: the window and then it closes the opportunity doesn't necessarily

790
00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:43,319
Speaker 4: close the window for the ball, but maybe closes the

791
00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:46,840
Speaker 4: window in the pocket. And you get sacked because you

792
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:49,720
Speaker 4: didn't say, oh, yeah, there is Pow, it's out, instead

793
00:40:49,719 --> 00:40:51,839
Speaker 4: of your like, I think it's there. I think it's there.

794
00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:54,080
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, I'm under pressure. You know you missed

795
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:56,759
Speaker 4: your opportunity. No, it's there, Let it go.

796
00:40:56,880 --> 00:40:59,560
Speaker 3: I love the sound effects Powell. It's like the old Batman.

797
00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:03,799
Speaker 4: That's my John matt in imitation. He's the by the way,

798
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:08,960
Speaker 4: one of the greatest announcers of all time. He made

799
00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:12,080

00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:32,680
Speaker 3: Jaguars in Jacksonville between October twelfth and December seventh. Yeah,

817
00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:34,640
Speaker 3: it's been a while since the Jags have been at

818
00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:36,719
Speaker 3: the Bank and it might it'll be a few weeks

819
00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:40,480
Speaker 3: again before they're back another time. Some backloaded home games

820
00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:43,000
Speaker 3: this year, of course, but this is a good chance

821
00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:46,120
Speaker 3: come out. Two teams in the playoff race. Chargers currently

822
00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:49,440
Speaker 3: the five seed they're chasing Denver and the AFC West

823
00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:52,319
Speaker 3: for that division, it's a really tough division, certainly, and

824
00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:54,720
Speaker 3: the Jaguar is currently the seventh seed in the AFC

825
00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:55,439
Speaker 3: playoff race.

826
00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:58,640
Speaker 4: You better play good defense in that division, do you think?

827
00:42:58,719 --> 00:42:59,000
Speaker 3: Yeah?

828
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:01,480
Speaker 4: Come on Denvers really good now, yeah, and the Chiefs

829
00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:05,280
Speaker 4: are getting hot. So well, the Chiefs got Patrick Mahomes.

830
00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:07,600
Speaker 4: They do, It's all you need to know about. Then

831
00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:10,000
Speaker 4: they got Patrick Mahomes, the best quarterback in the league.

832
00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:13,319
Speaker 4: I don't care what the ratings say or the attempts

833
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:17,000
Speaker 4: or the completion percentage. He's the most dangerous quarterback in

834
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:17,879
Speaker 4: the league by far.

835
00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:22,200
Speaker 3: From the Jaguars perspective, when this week, you know, everything's cool.

836
00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:24,480
Speaker 3: You know you've got tie breakers against the Chiefs and

837
00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:27,520
Speaker 3: the Chargers. At that point, with business still to attend

838
00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:30,480
Speaker 3: to a head lost in, it's still not over you.

839
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:33,200
Speaker 3: I mean, if you get your act together after this week,

840
00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:34,920
Speaker 3: then you can still handle business.

841
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:35,560
Speaker 4: It's not over.

842
00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:37,400
Speaker 3: But boy, you need to go try to play better

843
00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:37,879
Speaker 3: this week.

844
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:40,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I think the biggest reason is just

845
00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:43,920
Speaker 4: you just after a loss like you had in Houston,

846
00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:46,160
Speaker 4: you want to get past that and you just want

847
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:48,040
Speaker 4: to move on. Well, the only way that you get

848
00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:52,600
Speaker 4: past that and move on is by winning, because if

849
00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:55,439
Speaker 4: you don't win, then all of a sudden, then it's well,

850
00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:58,640
Speaker 4: the Houston Texans beach twice. Okay, what are you going

851
00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:01,359
Speaker 4: to get over? The hangover? The text and Wallace right,

852
00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:04,239
Speaker 4: and so you keep talking about that, so you win

853
00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:08,480
Speaker 4: against the Chargers. Now it kind of wipes that slate clean,

854
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:11,759
Speaker 4: and now you can move forward because now you're living

855
00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:14,160
Speaker 4: in the moment instead of living in the past. Let

856
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:19,880
Speaker 4: it rip, blogs, Hey love, let it rip, but don't

857
00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:23,760
Speaker 4: just let it rip willy nilly around, closing your eyes

858
00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:27,200
Speaker 4: going none, no, no, no, no, Throw it accurately, man.

859
