1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,400 Speaker 1: It's time for our weekly conversation with Pride of the 2 00:00:02,480 --> 00:00:07,040 Speaker 1: Jaguars running back Fred Taylor. Monday Night football the Jaguars 3 00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:09,639 Speaker 1: and the Bills under the lights at Orchard Park in 4 00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:13,640 Speaker 1: Week three. I gotta have a game for the Jags, Fred, 5 00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:15,680 Speaker 1: And here we are on Monday night. 6 00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:17,919 Speaker 2: Finally, but didn't think we'd be old too going in. 7 00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:21,279 Speaker 3: Be honest with you, Yeah, JP is certainly surprising for 8 00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:26,120 Speaker 3: all of the Jaguar fans, yourself, myself, everyone that considered 9 00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:31,280 Speaker 3: considers themselves a Jaguar. Bad start to the season, but 10 00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:33,639 Speaker 3: not the end of the season, certainly a must win. 11 00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:37,320 Speaker 3: I don't say that to put everyone in panic mode. 12 00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:40,680 Speaker 3: I say it more so to put pressure on yourself. 13 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 3: Pressure is privileged, like you have to be able to 14 00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:45,640 Speaker 3: rise to the occasion. You have to turn into a 15 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:49,160 Speaker 3: diamond under pressure. And I believe these guys are set 16 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 3: for the center stage. Diamond signs brighter under the night lights, 17 00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 3: especially in New York or your park. I don't know, 18 00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 3: but it's New York, so and it's Monday night, and 19 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 3: it's an opportunity for these guys to get out there, 20 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 3: get their shine on and show the world, not just Jacksonville, 21 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 3: but the entire world on the national stage what they're 22 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:15,120 Speaker 3: all about. So gotta gotta get get get get rid 23 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 3: of the oh and three mindset everybody hard. Time is now, 24 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 3: it's time to win. Time to get back and the 25 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:24,119 Speaker 3: win column. And they played well against Buffalo in the past, 26 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 3: so hopefully it's the same key as they take on 27 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 3: the Bills. 28 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 1: What was the number one concern for you about this 29 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 1: team coming out of the Browns game, Freend. 30 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 3: Number one concern is they don't necessarily have a real identity. Uh, 31 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 3: there's no tempo on the offensive side. Everyone's been saying 32 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 3: they seem to play flat. Not only that, they seem 33 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 3: to have come out flat in front of the home crowd. 34 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 4: You want to get up for your home opener. 35 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 3: So I need to see a bit more energy, you know, 36 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 3: a little bit more flying around. I need to I 37 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 3: think it was a preseason game. After Brian Tummas Junior 38 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 3: called a big pass. You see the entire sideliney rup like, 39 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 3: we need that sort of energy. We need to see 40 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 3: big shots that will provoke that sort of energy. Uh. 41 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 3: Just they throw a deep why not, That's that's my question. 42 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 3: Why not on the defensive side of the ball. Same energy, 43 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:26,559 Speaker 3: same flying around. There's a lot of the same confidence. 44 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 3: But start a little faster, you know, second and long 45 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 3: second in twenty twenty one, third and twenties. 46 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 4: Eliminate those, you know, make them, make them, make them work. 47 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 3: You know you're bending and you're trying not to break, 48 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 3: but then you eventually break, you know, get rid of 49 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,239 Speaker 3: that and continue to just believe in your sales. I 50 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,959 Speaker 3: think the defense will be the key obviously to beating 51 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 3: his Buffalo Bills team as talented, as talented. 52 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:56,360 Speaker 4: As they are from an offensive standpoint. 53 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,639 Speaker 1: Right of the Jaguars running back Fred Taylor with us, 54 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 1: Let's get into some of these matchups this week, and 55 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: let's start with the Jaguars offensive line. They've taken some 56 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 1: heat this week outside the building after the performance last week. 57 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,360 Speaker 1: But it doesn't get any easier this week. I mean, 58 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 1: the Bills front's really good as well. Rousseau and von 59 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 1: Miller looks like he's back to form. I mean, this 60 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: is another challenge this week, and what's the best way 61 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 1: to slow those guys down? 62 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 3: Fred, you know, they've had great challenges, you know, against 63 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 3: since the start of the season. You know, to be honest, 64 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 3: Miami has a pretty amazing front four last week. We 65 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 3: know that defense can really get it done. Let by 66 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 3: Miles Garrett. They actually showed up in crunch time when 67 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 3: they needed to provoke him that sack right there when 68 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 3: it was the game on the line. And you'll get 69 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 3: the same thing out of Buffalo at home on Monday night. 70 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 4: First game for them home this season. So expect them 71 00:03:58,440 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 4: to come out with high energy. 72 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 3: But you can neutralize that in the past game simply 73 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 3: by get some draw runs off. I haven't seen the 74 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 3: draw forever in this offense, but run the draw when 75 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 3: it's passing downs. Make sure you're running backs are chipping 76 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 3: on their release on their way out. Coach Polar, my 77 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,840 Speaker 3: former running backs coach. He used to tell us to 78 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:25,920 Speaker 3: take chunks. Take chunks out of the guys. So yeah, 79 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 3: you want to make sure your backs are upon exiting 80 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 3: on their route release in the pass game, chip the 81 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 3: slow down, that pressure even in the interior. 82 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 4: Knock those d tackles off as well, not just the ends. 83 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 1: Brett Taylor with us Josh Allen on the other side, 84 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 1: of course, well the Jaguars Josh Allen now Josh Heinz 85 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 1: Allen had a big game against this Bills team back 86 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 1: in twenty one, it was the nine to six game, 87 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 1: and then he actually had to get a good. 88 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:54,359 Speaker 2: Game last year and the Jags went over the Bills 89 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:54,840 Speaker 2: in London. 90 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 1: So the matchup this week against the Bills Josh Allen, 91 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 1: who's playing well early in the season, big body, he's 92 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,480 Speaker 1: got everything you want as a quarterback. So how do 93 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 1: they make it three straight against this Josh Allen of 94 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:08,720 Speaker 1: the Bills. 95 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 3: You know, pressure, you know, first start off by neutralizing 96 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 3: that run. James Cook had a really great game against 97 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 3: their like the Dolphins and the Bills last out, and 98 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 3: you know, neutralize them. You don't want to have them 99 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 3: give them an opportunity to create balance. Josh Allen. Not 100 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 3: our Josh Allen, Josh has Allen, but Josh Allen a quarterback. 101 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 4: He is best when he can manipulate you in the 102 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 4: run game through play action and that comes by way 103 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 4: when they're running the ball very efficiently and effectively. Uh 104 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,479 Speaker 4: and also when he's out of the pocket. So he's 105 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 4: a he's a super talent. You know, he's a super talent. 106 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,359 Speaker 3: He's out to prove everyone that he can get it 107 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 3: done without his star receivers and trading away Stephan Stephan 108 00:05:55,320 --> 00:06:00,120 Speaker 3: Diggs and then uh losing gave Davis to us at 109 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 3: the Jaguars. So he's out to prove a lot. He 110 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 3: doesn't have great passing numbers this year. He's at about 111 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:11,479 Speaker 3: one seventy five or so one eighty per clip per game, 112 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 3: but he's doing it on the ground. You know, he's 113 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 3: taking his team and converting the plays that then he 114 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 3: converted on big third downs. I've seen make some big 115 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 3: runs this year already. A guy who has fifty five 116 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:27,479 Speaker 3: career rushing touchdowns. It makes me a little jealous because 117 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 3: I had sixty six touchdowns. I'm a running back, so 118 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 3: certainly a guy who can get it done. 119 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 4: But you got to get after him. 120 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 3: Our Josh Alan, our josh Hines Allen is no stranger 121 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,279 Speaker 3: to it, and I know he'll be ready to play Beret. 122 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 2: Jaylor with us prime of the Jaguars running back. 123 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 1: And we heard Trevor Lawrence after the game last week 124 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 1: pretty much laying it out there. This team is not 125 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:53,600 Speaker 1: good right now. We've got to work on everything. It 126 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 1: starts with me. It goes through from getting the plays 127 00:06:56,400 --> 00:07:01,840 Speaker 1: into how this team responds to that. Those comments from 128 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:04,599 Speaker 1: the quarterback I think is big moving ahead, but the 129 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: quarterback has to play well on his own to get 130 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 1: a lot of that respect, I would think, Right, so, 131 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 1: you know, what is he lacking? Trevor Lawrence? And how 132 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 1: does he take that next step? It's not just him, 133 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: you know there's people around him, but how does he 134 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: elevate his game? 135 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 3: You know, one would say just the immediate transparent answer 136 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 3: is he's lacking wins JP. Yeah, I mean, man, I 137 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 3: don't ano they're going to highlight on the national spotlight. 138 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 4: But he's two and eight and his last ten starts. 139 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 3: You know, you don't. You're a franchise quarterback. You have 140 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 3: to play better than that. And you know, the tone 141 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 3: in Jacksonville from all of the Jaguar fans everywhere is 142 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 3: when you know Trevor yet, like we're still waiting. And 143 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 3: I love Trevor as a human. He's a great person, 144 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 3: a great character. Now this is a kid who I would, 145 00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 3: you know, want my daughter today. He's outstanding and he 146 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 3: stands for all the right stuff. Just throw you throw 147 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 3: that out though when you're playing football, like no one 148 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 3: cares about that. 149 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 4: Like if if you're dating my daughter, I don't care. 150 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 3: I want you to win football to Trevor, and you 151 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 3: got to go out there and play well. You know, 152 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 3: you got to continue to stay confident, first and foremost, 153 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 3: continue to be a leader. We know he's going to 154 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 3: do that. Uh, continue to lead those guys, because it's 155 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 3: not all him. You've seen guys drop the ball at 156 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 3: the most center opportune times. He would actually be one 157 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 3: in nine or three and seven and the last ten 158 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 3: if Etn hadn't fumble there, or maybe even if Johnson, 159 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 3: he could possibly even be, you know, two wins this 160 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 3: year if our running after running back position had done 161 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 3: better at handling the ball and handling situational aspects of 162 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,320 Speaker 3: the game. So not to get too long winded, it's 163 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,439 Speaker 3: not all Trevor, but certainly he's the leader. 164 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:54,359 Speaker 4: He's a quarterback. 165 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 3: He's going to take the brunt of it when the 166 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 3: media is talking about his team because he gets the 167 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 3: big bucks and all that other different stuff. But I 168 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 3: think Trevor's the guy for it. He doesn't have thin, 169 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 3: thin skin. I think he has an extremely thick callige, 170 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 3: so that won't affect him. So it's always rooting for him, certainly, 171 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 3: as long as he's steering the wheel of this Jaguars organization. 172 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 3: So but it's time to win, time to get a win. 173 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 2: Monday night football. 174 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 1: I mean you always get amped up anyway, knowing you 175 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: Fred for whatever game, because all games are important. However, 176 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 1: when the lights come on on Monday night, did you 177 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 1: crank it up a little more? 178 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:35,560 Speaker 4: Hey? 179 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 3: I before this song even came out, Like, I was 180 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 3: like I heard Rihanna in my headsets and the song 181 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 3: wasn't even out yet. It's like Shane Bright like a 182 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 3: diamond under the lights. Because I know the pressure, I 183 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 3: know the excitement. I never put that, you know, added 184 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 3: pressure on myself, but I enjoy the good pressure. It's 185 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 3: the pressure to go out there and perform, and I 186 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:02,600 Speaker 3: always felt like I delivered. Monday Night was remember my 187 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 3: first Monday Night game. It was actually against the Dolphins 188 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 3: at home there Probably many probably have seen these highlights 189 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:13,319 Speaker 3: if they passed past my Instagram page. Heyer is perk 190 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 3: listening because I need some new highlights. I need some 191 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 3: new highlights. I know we got a vault of Freddy 192 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:22,960 Speaker 3: t runs, so not to get side track, but I 193 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 3: just caught a little feeling right there, JP. But my 194 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 3: first run was a seventy nine yard touchdowns against the 195 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 3: Dolphins on a Monday night. I'll never forget that. And 196 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 3: it's just that moment, and not only that the local 197 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:43,200 Speaker 3: fans see it, fans and fans across the entire football 198 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 3: spectrum across the entire country. 199 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 4: They get an opportunity to see you as well. 200 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 3: And you get an opportunity to get out of a 201 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 3: small market mindset. 202 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 4: And showcase your talent. So this is the stage. 203 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,319 Speaker 3: They're going to talk a lot about Buffalo because they're 204 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 3: saying Buffalo storyline is team no one expected them to 205 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 3: be to or no after the transitions and all that 206 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 3: different stuff.
