8
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:36,880
Speaker 1: We're actually in someone's sweet someone shall not be named exactly.

Speaker 1: You know, the rest of us all have these these

10
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:42,120
Speaker 1: small single beds coming in here and places like the

11
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:46,520
Speaker 1: taj Mahal and someone doesn't make his bad Frankly, Yeah,

12
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 1: I mean we're obviously if people were literally viewing a

13
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 1: let's be it's Patrick Kavanaugh's room. Just go ahead and

14
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:00,360
Speaker 1: let's go. Let's move along. And we've been in room

15
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 1: early every morning to do this show, and so thank

16
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:06,959
Speaker 1: you Patrick for opening the doors for us. UM coach,

17
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: it's been a busy couple of days up here. You

18
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:12,559
Speaker 1: said you came here to get better. When you watch

19
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,840
Speaker 1: the tape the last couple of nights, did you see that? Oh? Definitely,

20
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 1: I mean you know, and that's that's for everybody. I

21
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 1: mean both teams. You know, you get in there and it's, uh,

22
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,759
Speaker 1: you're playing a team like Minnesota that's really uh has

23
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 1: a great roster for really from top to bottom, and

24
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 1: you're able to go out there and and it's different.

25
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 1: You know, you know, we've been going against each other

26
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 1: for a while now, and you know, schematically, you know,

27
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,040
Speaker 1: we're seeing the same type of scheme, and all of

28
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:36,480
Speaker 1: a sudden, you come up here for two days, then

29
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 1: it's something totally different. So I think just you know,

30
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 1: just being able to work on that going in there,

31
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:44,920
Speaker 1: and plus the competition and seeing how players, um, you know,

32
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 1: rise to the occasion, see if they know how to practice,

33
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 1: which is probably the thing I'm most proud of. I

34
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 1: think you saw both teams go out there, and both teams,

35
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 1: you know, the thing that amazed me about this one

36
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 1: is that you saw more players, whether it was our

37
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 1: team or their team, helping players up, and um, you know,

38
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,440
Speaker 1: it truly felt like we're just one team out there

39
00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 1: trying to get better. Coach there you as these things approach,

40
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: you always hear people say, well, you can never get

41
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 1: two teams together without having stuff across the ball, as

42
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 1: you said, but you guys met the players met. Can

43
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: that work going for? I mean, is there a reason

44
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 1: there has to be fights during these things because you

45
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 1: guys certainly avoided without even anything close to an incident. Yeah,

46
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:26,799
Speaker 1: I mean I've been I've been fortunate. I think that,

47
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:28,640
Speaker 1: you know, when I was in Buffalo and then and

48
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 1: then here in Jacksonville last year and then this year

49
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 1: that we've been able to have joint practices and not

50
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 1: have you know, any of that uh stuff go on

51
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 1: that that just hurts hurts the team. And someone asked me, like, one,

52
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 1: are the one things you're looking for are young players? Well,

53
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 1: one of the things I'm looking for is exactly that.

54
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:46,000
Speaker 1: You know, can they um, you know, they're not going

55
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:47,920
Speaker 1: to make the team by getting in a fight. You know,

56
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 1: if anything, they can get themselves cut. But at the

57
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 1: same time, I think that you know, we get the

58
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 1: players together, the players talk to each other. You know,

59
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 1: they understand what we're trying to accomplish. Um, we understand

60
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 1: that it uh when he's joined practices go on, you

61
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 1: know everybody's waiting for that. You know, everyone's waiting for

62
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 1: this this altercation to take place. So they can post

63
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 1: it online and show and that's not That's not how

64
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 1: we want to look as a league, and especially that's

65
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:16,640
Speaker 1: not how we want to look as um, you know,

66
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 1: players in our organization. And I think it's important that

67
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 1: we understand that, hey, this is practice. We don't want

68
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 1: this out there about us as players or coaches. And

69
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:28,959
Speaker 1: I think that, you know, everywhere I've been, the players

70
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 1: have have done a really good job of it and

71
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 1: we've been able to get good work in and get better.

72
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 1: How the players meeting idea come up? Well, I had

73
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 1: one when we played when out of the Buffalo we

74
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 1: went to Pittsburgh. You know, we had the same thing,

75
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 1: the players met and then uh coach Zimmer called me

76
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: up and said, hey, you want to bring a group

77
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 1: of players he I said absolutely, and we both went

78
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 1: in there. And I think what it is is that

79
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 1: as coaches, you know, obviously we can police that's probably

80
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 1: not a good word, but police to the actions, you

81
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying on the field, But um, what's

82
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 1: more do it? Then? I think it's it's it's real

83
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 1: meaning that you know it's coming from them. The more

84
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 1: veteran players, you know, talking to so as soon as

85
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 1: they see something happening, they can get it under control

86
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 1: before it starts a larger altercation. You know, this the

87
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:19,159
Speaker 1: joint practice thing, at least from the Jaguars perspective, us

88
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 1: to be really regional, you know, the the box of

89
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 1: the Saints and the Panthers through the years. Last year

90
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 1: you go to New England. This year you come up here.

91
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 1: The Rams were in Baltimore, the Texans in San Francisco. This,

92
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,920
Speaker 1: this whole idea has become commonplace around the league. Obviously

93
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:37,480
Speaker 1: it's valuable. Yeah, I I believe so, I I have.

94
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 1: You know, I just think it. I think it helps.

95
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 1: It comes at a really good time, you know. My

96
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 1: my my philosophy is to try to do it within

97
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,280
Speaker 1: the first two weeks of camp. Uh. If I had

98
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,119
Speaker 1: my preference, I would do it. You know, the first

99
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 1: week I think it breaks it up pretty good. But

100
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,720
Speaker 1: the second week is good. Um. You know I I

101
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:57,280
Speaker 1: and I think it's really a lot of it is

102
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 1: dictated on the preseason schedule. You know where where are going,

103
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:02,840
Speaker 1: what you're doing, um, you know who you're playing. And

104
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 1: then really a lot of it's the facilities, which I

105
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:08,320
Speaker 1: have to say, I don't think i've ever seen uh

106
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 1: anywhere college and if you know college or or at

107
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 1: our level, the facilities that are up here in Minnesota.

108
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,600
Speaker 1: And I appreciated the University of Minnesota giving us the

109
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,120
Speaker 1: you know, ability to go to walk through there. You know,

110
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 1: Mark Coyle's the a D and p J. P J

111
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,599
Speaker 1: flected the head coach. You know, we went in there

112
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 1: and and and that saved us that that that helped

113
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 1: our players being able to rest more because it was

114
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,919
Speaker 1: much closer than the Vikings facility. I always thought Zimmer

115
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 1: was one of the more underrated coaches in the league.

116
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 1: Coach his teams. What is it about? And that sets

117
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,479
Speaker 1: him apart aside from town. But what do you see

118
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 1: from him as a coach? Yeah, I mean strict discipline, schematically,

119
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 1: they give you issues. Um, they hustle, they run, they

120
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 1: were in shape. Um there's there's just a lot of

121
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:53,359
Speaker 1: things and not you know, highly penalized team. Um. Yeah,

122
00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 1: is there's so many things and he has he has

123
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,600
Speaker 1: you know, himself and the rest of those coaches doing

124
00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 1: outstanding job. You know, guys like us, we want to

125
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:03,760
Speaker 1: look at the practices and say, all right, he had

126
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 1: a good day, he didn't have a good day. He

127
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,239
Speaker 1: won that rep. You know he didn't win that rep.

128
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,280
Speaker 1: We're talking about sound like a coach right there, and

129
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,720
Speaker 1: there you go. It's it's easier for you because you

130
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:15,839
Speaker 1: know what you're looking for, and it's not as easy

131
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,359
Speaker 1: for the bystander, whether it's the fan or whether it's media.

132
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 1: How do you judge these because the whistle is quick

133
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,160
Speaker 1: in a lot of cases it is, but you know

134
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,880
Speaker 1: a lot of it. So basically you go out there

135
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,479
Speaker 1: and there's a little quick whistle, but you're able to

136
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,360
Speaker 1: see whether the player in the first three steps, if

137
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 1: he has the right angle, if he's in good position.

138
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 1: You know, then it's just a matter of the finish.

139
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:38,359
Speaker 1: And a lot of times, you know, players that have

140
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 1: played before, you've you've seen them finish or you've seen

141
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 1: them tackle. But I think that's why I've always said

142
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,239
Speaker 1: I so I take these practices a little bit higher

143
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,839
Speaker 1: than a practice against each other. But I think the

144
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 1: preseason games a little higher than these practices because you

145
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 1: know it is live, so you know, you can see.

146
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 1: You know, whether you're a skill player, you know you are,

147
00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 1: you're gonna catch the ball in the middle, or you're

148
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,600
Speaker 1: gonna finish someone that's an offensive lineman, are you gonna

149
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 1: be able to you know, run and when you get tackled,

150
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,039
Speaker 1: you know, not have that ball jard loose and have

151
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 1: good ball security. And then the other the other phase

152
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: of it is, you know on the defensive side, you know,

153
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 1: are you gonna be able to tackle? Are you gonna

154
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 1: be able in the right position? Are you playing with

155
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 1: the proper technique? So uh, a lot of things you

156
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 1: can find out that players can put themselves in a

157
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,600
Speaker 1: position and these two practices, but you still have to

158
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 1: go to the games when it's live to see if

159
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 1: they can get the results. So the thought after Wednesday's

160
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 1: practice was Blake struggled? Is that accurate? And did he

161
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 1: improve yesterday? Yeah? I mean it's like I said, I

162
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 1: got that question yesterday. They like, hey, you know, you

163
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 1: know he didn't have a very good day yesterday. But

164
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 1: you know, you know what are your opinion on that?

165
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 1: Was you have to do to get better? You know,

166
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 1: all legit questions, but a lot of it. You know,

167
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 1: sometimes you're you rely on other factors, you know for

168
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 1: your performance. You know, how was the protection was it

169
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 1: always was? He was it a clean pocket all the time?

170
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 1: You know? How about from the standpoint of not just

171
00:07:57,520 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: the wide receiver's tight ends and running backs. You know

172
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 1: where they are they being covered? Are they winning? You know?

173
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 1: So I think, you know, again, I'm gonna go back

174
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 1: to overall we have we have to do a better job.

175
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:10,120
Speaker 1: And yesterday we had a pretty good period. And at

176
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 1: the end of the day, that's one of the reasons why,

177
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,640
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's enjoyable to be up here because

178
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 1: you know you're facing you know, everyone talks about our

179
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 1: defense and we have obviously a very good defense, but

180
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:22,400
Speaker 1: they were number one in the leg you know, so

181
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 1: you're going against the number one defense up here in Minnesota.

182
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 1: You're going to get the number two defense every single

183
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 1: day in practice. So you're you're not going to go

184
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 1: out there and consistently be able to you know, perform

185
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:35,560
Speaker 1: at a high level on those on those two types

186
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,720
Speaker 1: of defenses. And if you are boy, you really feel

187
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 1: good about about yourself. But you know, there's a lot

188
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,680
Speaker 1: to be learned. And I think overall, you know, you

189
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 1: want to go to the quarterback of an individual effort,

190
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 1: but I think we got to just get every you know,

191
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 1: he's got to get you know, he'll do a better

192
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 1: job and everyone else has to do a better job. Coach,

193
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:55,559
Speaker 1: you obviously believe in stressing these guys during training camp.

194
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:59,079
Speaker 1: Uh have you done that to your satisfaction? And is

195
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 1: that part over hours? It's still to go still on

196
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,320
Speaker 1: that camp fase? No, we're still in camp. Fase still

197
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 1: Uh the end of the next week, you know, the

198
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:11,760
Speaker 1: third preseason game. You know, I think, um, I don't.

199
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 1: I don't know if I try to like, you know,

200
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,760
Speaker 1: force things. These are things that their schedules thought about,

201
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 1: you know. Uh, well in advance. You know what we

202
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 1: want to get accomplished and what we want to do.

203
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,679
Speaker 1: You know, as you see, you know, my thing is

204
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:28,240
Speaker 1: to put in you know, the most possible you know,

205
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 1: work and things of that nature. Knowing that, you know,

206
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:33,319
Speaker 1: you can always back down, but you can never go

207
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,240
Speaker 1: in and say, hey, we're gonna add this those players

208
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,839
Speaker 1: you know, whoa, whoa, you know, wait a minute here,

209
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,040
Speaker 1: So you know, we try to max that out from

210
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 1: the beginning. I think, you know, you know, there is

211
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,720
Speaker 1: there was a little bit of I try to create

212
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:48,360
Speaker 1: what I call adversity. Uh, you know last week or

213
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:50,440
Speaker 1: something I wanted to you know, switching to schedule on

214
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 1: them when when they came in. We knew his coaches

215
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 1: just wanted to do something like that just kind of

216
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:57,400
Speaker 1: throw off the timing and what they were prepared to

217
00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 1: do to see how they react to it. They did

218
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 1: a nice job. And then, um, you know, coming up

219
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:03,680
Speaker 1: here it's I think it's tough. You you know, you practice,

220
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:05,720
Speaker 1: you get on a plane, you fly up here, you

221
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,680
Speaker 1: wake up the next day, you're walking through your practicing.

222
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 1: I think, you know, there's a little bit of adversity

223
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,320
Speaker 1: in that. So you know, those are the things we do,

224
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,000
Speaker 1: and you just want to stay on edge. I know,

225
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:20,439
Speaker 1: for myself, if I'm starting to feel comfortable, then we're

226
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 1: in trouble, meaning myself. So you know, you want that.

227
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:27,360
Speaker 1: You want to be comfortable being uncomfortable, and I think

228
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,080
Speaker 1: that's what keeps you on your toes and that's what

229
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 1: keeps you progressing. For us, just watching practice, there's been

230
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:33,840
Speaker 1: a few guys that have stood out. D J. Hayden

231
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 1: made a great interception yesterday. Looking back at the past

232
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 1: two days, who stood out to you, Well, I think

233
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:42,440
Speaker 1: there's there's flashes of of of people. I don't think

234
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 1: that you know, there's uh, you know, uh, you know.

235
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:47,640
Speaker 1: DJ Chart did a nice job. You other day, he

236
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,199
Speaker 1: caught a real deep ball, you know, d D. Westbrook

237
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,959
Speaker 1: Cott one. Uh, you know, Blake, I thought was throwing

238
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,839
Speaker 1: a ball well, you know, vertically to you know, give

239
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 1: us a chance to make plays. You know, I thought,

240
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,160
Speaker 1: you know, some matchups on the offensive line, some of

241
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,920
Speaker 1: the second team guys, you know, we have some starters

242
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:04,599
Speaker 1: out with the first teams. They went up there and

243
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 1: did a nice job. A couple of guys have been

244
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 1: starting to play better. I think that, you know, the defensively,

245
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 1: I really thought we had we played well, um really

246
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 1: in all all three of them. You know, it was

247
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 1: a little bit uh not not as uh, we just

248
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:21,960
Speaker 1: had to clean some things up from the first day.

249
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 1: But I think our defense had you know, you know,

250
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 1: two good days and then um, offensively, you know, it's

251
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 1: as you know, the players there, but special teams is

252
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,680
Speaker 1: the other area that you know, we're really taking a

253
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:34,839
Speaker 1: good look at. And you know, we really worked the

254
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:36,680
Speaker 1: butts off and now we got to see the results

255
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:38,720
Speaker 1: in the game. Because when you're looking at the end

256
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 1: of the back end of the roster, the depth of

257
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:42,600
Speaker 1: the roster, you want to make sure that you know,

258
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:44,320
Speaker 1: in the back of my mind it's always forty six,

259
00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:45,840
Speaker 1: you know, the amount of players that are that are

260
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:50,840
Speaker 1: addressing for the game. So the backup at a position,

261
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 1: the more you can contribute to special teams. And I

262
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,600
Speaker 1: can guarantee you eighteen twenty something snaps the game and

263
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 1: you can play at a high level of results. Well,

264
00:11:57,960 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 1: you're gonna get the nod over the guy that may

265
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 1: he's just a little bit better than you at that

266
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,720
Speaker 1: position because we're gonna be able to use them and

267
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:05,600
Speaker 1: this way we can be a complete team. You know,

268
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:07,559
Speaker 1: ten twelve years ago, there was a kid at the

269
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,200
Speaker 1: bottom of the depth chart named Montell Owens, who you know,

270
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,320
Speaker 1: ninth round or ninth running back from the University of Maine,

271
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,679
Speaker 1: and at the end of training camp he turned out

272
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:18,839
Speaker 1: to make the roster because he's pretty good on special teams.

273
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:20,559
Speaker 1: Turned out to be a three time pro bowler on

274
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:23,680
Speaker 1: special teams. Is there anybody that you've seen it's really

275
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 1: stew it out amongst that undrafted rookie group that has

276
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,160
Speaker 1: to make it on teams that we should be watching

277
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 1: for on Saturday night in Minnesota. Maybe two guys, well,

278
00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 1: you know there are there. There are two or three

279
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 1: players that I think have have really been performing well.

280
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:39,520
Speaker 1: But you know, at the end of the day, I

281
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:42,400
Speaker 1: just don't want everyone to know in case, you know,

282
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:46,560
Speaker 1: you know, and I think that you know, you don't

283
00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:48,439
Speaker 1: want to say that, and then all of a sudden

284
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 1: you're trying to you know, and and this is what

285
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,320
Speaker 1: it is. It's really trying to sneak somebody on, you know,

286
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 1: maybe your practice squad if some one of those players

287
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,040
Speaker 1: don't make the team. But I think we do have

288
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 1: people in a position that you're talking about, you know,

289
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:00,360
Speaker 1: they're going to have that ability. And I think these

290
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 1: next you know, three games, the preseason game, because they've

291
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 1: shown the ability to do well in practice, they're shown

292
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:07,760
Speaker 1: the ability to be to you know, be in the

293
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 1: right position that we've just got to see if they

294
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:11,839
Speaker 1: can create the results. So you know, we'll be we'll

295
00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 1: be looking at that for the next uh, you know,

296
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:15,680
Speaker 1: three weeks. I'm gonna take a chance here, Brian and

297
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 1: assume that Myles Jack will be on the team. So

298
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:23,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask you about Myles. Yeah, has he played

299
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 1: on film and in your eyes as well as he's

300
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,720
Speaker 1: looked because he looks faster, he looks like he's getting

301
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 1: that comfort that you want Yeah, I mean absolutely, I

302
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 1: mean he was he was a heck of a player

303
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:35,720
Speaker 1: for us last year, and I think he's come back

304
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,200
Speaker 1: this year and you know, really working hard to to

305
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:40,880
Speaker 1: you know, you know, to play better and perform better.

306
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 1: I think that you know, each of these players, no

307
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,360
Speaker 1: matter whether they've gone to the Pro Bowl or you know,

308
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 1: it's their first year started, they want to perform well. Um. Obviously,

309
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:52,440
Speaker 1: we have you know, very high expectations for ourselves on defense,

310
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:54,720
Speaker 1: and you know, our linebackers are a key part of it.

311
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:57,360
Speaker 1: And I think that mentally they've gone in there and uh,

312
00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 1: you know, they went hard. I think the one thing

313
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 1: that you know, people won't really talk about when they

314
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 1: talk about our defense, you know, and I think it

315
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,520
Speaker 1: showed a little bit the other day, is really just

316
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 1: a speed that we have. I mean we we have

317
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 1: you know, fast guys. I mean we run into the football,

318
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:13,440
Speaker 1: We get a lot of people around the football. And

319
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:15,600
Speaker 1: I think that's the one thing that like when as

320
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 1: a as a coach or an ex offensive coach, you know,

321
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 1: when you're looking in the league, when I look at

322
00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 1: the defense, I'm like, those guys are fast, and you

323
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:24,160
Speaker 1: know it's especially at you know, we know the deep end,

324
00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 1: you know the dbs are but you know, you know

325
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:30,000
Speaker 1: Miles and Telvin. I mean those those guys are very

326
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:33,320
Speaker 1: very fast and and that both physical players too, you

327
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:35,040
Speaker 1: know the other side of it, the power up front.

328
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 1: I thought Marcel Darius had two really good days. Yeah,

329
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 1: I think we did a good job up front. I think, uh,

330
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,680
Speaker 1: you know Calaius you know shows you know, he's consistently

331
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 1: doing it and nothing slowing down with him. Um, you know,

332
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:50,000
Speaker 1: Marcel's had a good day, John's had you know, good days.

333
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 1: You know, Loreni mccraie has been doing doing well for us,

334
00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,360
Speaker 1: you know Abe Jones. I mean, you know upfront, we

335
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:57,280
Speaker 1: have a lot of guys up front that can play

336
00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:00,280
Speaker 1: and and they know, you know, this competition and at

337
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 1: the bottom of that, you know, for those roster spots.

338
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:04,280
Speaker 1: So you know, you're getting a lot of good effort,

339
00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 1: a lot of good player out of that group where

340
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:07,840
Speaker 1: we let you go. Today is an off day in

341
00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 1: terms of practicing, not practicing with the biking. So what

342
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 1: what what today for you? When you coach? What do

343
00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 1: you got to get done? Well? You know when we

344
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:19,880
Speaker 1: came up here and practiced, you know, there were still

345
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:21,920
Speaker 1: some things that we wanted to look at. There's still

346
00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:25,560
Speaker 1: some plays and some calls defensively and we just wanted

347
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 1: you know, so we go out that practice, but you know,

348
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 1: we haven't gone over a game plan, you know, with

349
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 1: with the players. So today is more okay, here's here's

350
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:36,560
Speaker 1: our game plan. These are the players we like against

351
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:38,480
Speaker 1: them either, you know, this is how we're gonna attack them.

352
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 1: Because I think what people may not realize our listeners

353
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 1: is that, you know, the first preseason game are only

354
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 1: prep for them is really the night before, you know,

355
00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 1: the day before our second preseason games the same you know,

356
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 1: Atlanta we put a little you know, we put we'll

357
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 1: put a little bit more time in and the fourth

358
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 1: game we really don't game plan for because we're getting

359
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,160
Speaker 1: ready for the first game of the season. So you know,

360
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 1: that's that's pretty much standard operation. Not everybody does that,

361
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 1: but uh, a lot of teams in the league do that,

362
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 1: so you know, it's it's it's very it's very difficult

363
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:14,360
Speaker 1: you know when people when you look at these preseason games. Uh,

364
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 1: you know Tom Brady said yesterday, you know, hey, we're

365
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 1: not scheming, we're just you know, just running a couple

366
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 1: of players here and there, and and and and I'm

367
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:22,640
Speaker 1: listening to him and I'm like, yeah, I mean, that's

368
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 1: that's what you do in the preseason. So um, our

369
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 1: players are pretty much getting the game plan really the

370
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 1: day before these games. So then, you know, and that's

371
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 1: that's also a test too. You know, it's a test

372
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 1: of how you can take that information in a short

373
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,040
Speaker 1: period time. Now they're not as large as the game

374
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 1: plans on on on in the season, but it's also

375
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 1: a test of saying, hey, listen, here the players that

376
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:45,720
Speaker 1: we're running with this group, run pass or here the

377
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,800
Speaker 1: defenses were calling here to pressures and seeing how they're

378
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 1: able to pick that up, study it and go out

379
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 1: the next day and execute it. That's also part of

380
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:55,480
Speaker 1: the evaluation. Right, busy day and a busy day tomorrow.

381
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:57,120
Speaker 1: You stadium guy at all, you didn't see this new

382
00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:00,360
Speaker 1: place to do I am because you know, I I

383
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,240
Speaker 1: didn't know what I was. You know, my expectations were

384
00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 1: coming up here and going to the silly and I

385
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:07,639
Speaker 1: know that with a new facility, but you know, I

386
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,439
Speaker 1: was totally blown away by it. I really wasn't, and

387
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:14,040
Speaker 1: so was everyone else. I mean, the players, uh, the staff,

388
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:16,800
Speaker 1: um and then you know, I think a couple of

389
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,000
Speaker 1: people on our staff have gone through some tours of it.

390
00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:21,280
Speaker 1: I was fortunate enough to get in there. So now

391
00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:23,920
Speaker 1: I'm like, holy cow, that's a practice, you know, that's

392
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:27,000
Speaker 1: the facility. You know. Let's see. I'm kind of, you know,

393
00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:29,880
Speaker 1: excited because you pretty much have been in every stadium

394
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:31,760
Speaker 1: you know when you're in the NFL, so you don't

395
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:33,879
Speaker 1: You're like, yeah, I know the locker room, you know

396
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:35,679
Speaker 1: where to go. But here I'm going into a stadium

397
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:37,160
Speaker 1: where I don't. I don't know where anything is, which

398
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 1: I think is important. That's why we're bringing a team

399
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:40,800
Speaker 1: over there, so they know where the locker room is.

400
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 1: So this way, when we go in there tomorrow because

401
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,040
Speaker 1: we have an early game, they're not like what, they're

402
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,800
Speaker 1: not like. There's no anxiety about where we are, where

403
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:50,879
Speaker 1: we're dressing, and where we're meeting, and so I like

404
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 1: to walk through that and get the players the field.

405
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 1: US Bank Stadium, Jack's first time playing there. It opened

406
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:56,920
Speaker 1: last year. Coach, thanks so much for your time this point.

Speaker 1: wrapping up a busy week here with the game tomorrow

445
00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:23,600
Speaker 1: one o'clock Eastern time kickoff on the CBS back in Jacksonville. Um,

446
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:28,400
Speaker 1: Doug is I don't know whether the right term coach. MA. Yeah,

447
00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 1: he absolutely himself. He comes off as so intense so

448
00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 1: many times, and yet he sits down and starts answering

449
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:38,240
Speaker 1: questions in such a thoughtful way. I asked him to

450
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:42,879
Speaker 1: question about the young guys and whom I teams. I

451
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:45,680
Speaker 1: don't want to answer that. Well, Tom, when I did

452
00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:47,040
Speaker 1: his radio show, which I don't want to answer that

453
00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 1: need stop. But then dougas well, I don't want to aser,

454
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:51,800
Speaker 1: and here's why, and gives you an answer you didn't expect.

455
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,199
Speaker 1: It was great answer, right, and feels bad that he

456
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:56,320
Speaker 1: can't answer it for you. What I mean, he's just

457
00:20:56,480 --> 00:21:00,119
Speaker 1: he's he's so people. You can't pigeonhole him in to

458
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,879
Speaker 1: being this kind of coach, a player's coach, or this

459
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 1: kind of coach, a Belichick or a Parcels kind of coach,

460
00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:09,520
Speaker 1: even though we kind of leans in that direction. Um,

461
00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,800
Speaker 1: he's different and different is good. I think that's important

462
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:16,560
Speaker 1: because the quickest way for a head coach. And I

463
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:20,160
Speaker 1: wasn't around Doug and Buffalo, so I don't know how

464
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 1: he approached it there, but historically, the quickest way for

465
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:25,439
Speaker 1: head coach to get in a lot of trouble and

466
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:28,480
Speaker 1: lose players is to not be himself. You're around these

467
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:31,960
Speaker 1: guys so much, and you're here in the day to day,

468
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,840
Speaker 1: around everybody in the building so much that if you

469
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 1: try to be something you're not, you're going to come

470
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:41,720
Speaker 1: off phony. And players are very quick to sense phony.

471
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 1: So it sounds to me from talking to players like

472
00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:48,360
Speaker 1: Doug's taking the approach of this is who I am.

473
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 1: I'm gonna walk this walk, and you know, stay in

474
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:55,719
Speaker 1: in the right shoes if you will, and do that

475
00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:58,560
Speaker 1: every day. And as long as you do that usually

476
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 1: don't come across contradict seen yourself. I'd have a hard

477
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,479
Speaker 1: time believing he ever contradicts himself. As long as he's

478
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 1: true to himself, I think he's done that so far

479
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 1: a year and half of the job. Big Thing one,

480
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:11,080
Speaker 1: Well at the chat, thought Doug, let me let me

481
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,159
Speaker 1: share this one last thought, and that I just I

482
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 1: left my head. Sorry, here we go, Big Thing. That

483
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,639
Speaker 1: was great, It's real right, We'll just leave. I just

484
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:22,840
Speaker 1: went right on my head. Big Thing one is better.

485
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,000
Speaker 1: Thursday was just a better day for the Jaguars. The

486
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,560
Speaker 1: defense was dominant, yet again, But the offense just looked

487
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:29,959
Speaker 1: better Wednesday. It was kind of a tough day for them.

488
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,159
Speaker 1: But Blake Bortles met the media yesterday and said that

489
00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:34,480
Speaker 1: the offense looked crisper and just more in sync with

490
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:37,360
Speaker 1: each other. Well, I mean, Doug started off Wednesday saying, look,

491
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,240
Speaker 1: we're just here to get better. Mike Zimmer said the

492
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,640
Speaker 1: same thing. We just want both teams to get better.

493
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 1: So the question John is did you see better over

494
00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:49,160
Speaker 1: two days? Well, the offense certainly looked a lot better

495
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:52,560
Speaker 1: the second day. Um, I think what Doug said probably

496
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:56,560
Speaker 1: has a lot of merit. The Jaguars got on a

497
00:22:56,600 --> 00:23:03,560
Speaker 1: plane late Tuesday, arrived Wednesday. Um, it wouldn't be surprising

498
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:06,240
Speaker 1: if if they were a little out of sorts during

499
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,480
Speaker 1: that practice on Wednesday. I'm not gonna say it was

500
00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:10,480
Speaker 1: similar to when we go to London that first time

501
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:12,680
Speaker 1: in London, where you're all trying to figure out where

502
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:16,000
Speaker 1: you are. But it was kind of weird. Uh, It's

503
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:17,919
Speaker 1: something you have to adapt to during the season. So

504
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 1: I hear fans saying, well, if if they're going to

505
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,840
Speaker 1: struggle and in a practice and they're gonna struggling in

506
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 1: the game, I think it's like it is an unusual

507
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:27,240
Speaker 1: situation to come into practice. I think I think they

508
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 1: had a lot to do with it. Um that said,

509
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:34,239
Speaker 1: I thought the defense started strong on Wednesday as we

510
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:37,400
Speaker 1: talked about Brian just the front of this defense being

511
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:42,080
Speaker 1: very dominant, and then if anything, it was it was

512
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:45,640
Speaker 1: twice that yesterday. I mean the defense practiced, I thought

513
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 1: as well as I've seen it practice in training camp

514
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:52,479
Speaker 1: yesterday in the outdoor session of that practice. So in

515
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:54,840
Speaker 1: terms of getting better, I give a guy that has

516
00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:58,400
Speaker 1: to have improved, and that's Cam Robinson because the Neil

517
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:02,359
Speaker 1: Hunter yesterday, he reminds me and player comparisons are always

518
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,879
Speaker 1: so tough, especially from different years. But Michael McCreary, you

519
00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 1: remember him from the Baltimore Ravens, just a water wheel guy,

520
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:11,640
Speaker 1: never stops moving, right, long arms, really active. Daniel Hunter

521
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:13,920
Speaker 1: is one of the best pass rushers in the league,

522
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 1: and Cam struggled with him on Wednesday, and I thought

523
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,880
Speaker 1: did much better against him on Thursday. It's those little

524
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 1: one on one matchups where you can see it's hard

525
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:24,880
Speaker 1: to say well a guy won or a guy lost,

526
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:27,679
Speaker 1: but you can say, well he did better there. And

527
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,399
Speaker 1: I saw some of that around between the first and

528
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:33,960
Speaker 1: second teams. But Cam Robinson's the guy. I think this

529
00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,400
Speaker 1: kind of experience against that kind of pass rush will

530
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:38,480
Speaker 1: set him up. Yeah, I thought he held his own

531
00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:43,040
Speaker 1: And it's important because h Cam Robinson is a huge

532
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:46,600
Speaker 1: story on the offensive line so far. I've seen the

533
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:50,880
Speaker 1: interior lender Uh Norwell hadn't been practiced in the last week,

534
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,040
Speaker 1: but I'm assuming based when we saw Earli he's gonna

535
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 1: be fine and can has gotten better. But Robinson is

536
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:59,400
Speaker 1: a guy that if he plays this year the way

537
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,560
Speaker 1: he played last stay, that's not good enough. It was

538
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:04,119
Speaker 1: fine last year as a rookie coming in, but if

539
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,360
Speaker 1: he's going to be the player they think he's gonna be,

540
00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:09,119
Speaker 1: he has to improve from last year. Early on in

541
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,399
Speaker 1: camp from talking to people who know offensive line, he

542
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:14,600
Speaker 1: really hadn't done that. So he has got to improve

543
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,359
Speaker 1: because the left side of that line, you assumed with

544
00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:19,560
Speaker 1: Norwell when he came in that you would have a

545
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,399
Speaker 1: rock the left side of the line. Cam Robinson's the

546
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,560
Speaker 1: guy who needs to be rock solid. Well. McCrary used

547
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:27,680
Speaker 1: to Givessell fits and that's saying something because not many

548
00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:31,440
Speaker 1: pass rushers did and BESSELLI was over there yesterday talking

549
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:35,119
Speaker 1: after the reps with him with Cam about how you

550
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,639
Speaker 1: deal with that guy who can go either way, whose

551
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:40,639
Speaker 1: hands and arms are always in your face. Um. I

552
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 1: thought it was interesting, and I thought from day one

553
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 1: to day two it was a good sign the way

554
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,800
Speaker 1: that the young tackle. I saw the exchange too, and

555
00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 1: more importantly than Basselli talking, which Bassello talked to anybody,

556
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,919
Speaker 1: was it looked like Cam was listening and taking it in.

557
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 1: And sometimes young players you see their eyes glaze in

558
00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:59,920
Speaker 1: that situation. Offensively, we can't forget that they were playing

559
00:25:59,920 --> 00:26:01,360
Speaker 1: the number one defense in the league. And I think

560
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:04,600
Speaker 1: it's great that coach Marrowe mentions that because a lot

561
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:06,800
Speaker 1: of times we even say that are Jaguars on the

562
00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:09,240
Speaker 1: number one defense in the league, but he has always said, no,

563
00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 1: they're number one. And when you when you talk about that,

564
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 1: you've got Xavier Rhodes, who we don't see a lot

565
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:17,920
Speaker 1: of and people in Tallahassee and Florida State fans remember,

566
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:20,159
Speaker 1: but you see him walking off the practice field. I

567
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:22,639
Speaker 1: mean he's built like Jalen. I mean he's he's tall,

568
00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:25,159
Speaker 1: he's got the long arms and the big hands and

569
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:28,600
Speaker 1: explosive athleticism. That goes along with that. So the chance

570
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 1: for Marquis to line up and test himself right or

571
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 1: d J Chark against these guys just gives them more

572
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:39,560
Speaker 1: opportunity to come back to the key word, yeah and

573
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:42,879
Speaker 1: there was in the Twitter area is always going to

574
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:46,920
Speaker 1: be angst whenever there's a series of tweets O Blake struggling.

575
00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:52,160
Speaker 1: The offense is struggling this well, the the Minnesota offense

576
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:56,040
Speaker 1: also struggle against the Jaguars defense, with the exception of

577
00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:59,520
Speaker 1: the Wednesday practice where Kirk Cousins looks really good in

578
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:03,399
Speaker 1: the red zone drill early, but beyond that, you know,

579
00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 1: if these two teams played, it would be a tight,

580
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,160
Speaker 1: low scoring game because both these defenses got the better

581
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:13,280
Speaker 1: the offenses. So with the Jaguars, Brian think we talked

582
00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:15,440
Speaker 1: about it. This team is gonna have to run and

583
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:18,080
Speaker 1: it's gonna have to be dominant in the front seven. Well,

584
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 1: the offensive line in the running drills that I saw

585
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:25,080
Speaker 1: looked very good. The Jaguars did this team this week

586
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:27,720
Speaker 1: was what you expected it to be. Well, we'll see

587
00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:31,040
Speaker 1: on Saturday afternoon tomorrow at one o'clock we'll see if

588
00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:34,000
Speaker 1: they got better again. The outcome of the game doesn't matter,

589
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:36,680
Speaker 1: but watch some of these individual matchups and see how

590
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:41,280
Speaker 1: Robinson does against number Dan Neil Hunter, a kid who

591
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:43,159
Speaker 1: has twenty five and a half sacks in just a

592
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:45,280
Speaker 1: couple of years. So he's kind of their unique in

593
00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 1: gock Way in terms of he's been that explosive guy

594
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,880
Speaker 1: who's come on the scene. All right, what's a big

595
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:52,600
Speaker 1: thing too? Big thing too is focus. With the collective

596
00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 1: bargain agreement, we now players can only be on the

597
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:56,720
Speaker 1: field for so long, so these coaches have a short

598
00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:58,560
Speaker 1: amount of time to get a lot of things done.

599
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:02,040
Speaker 1: So situational play has come in a lot with these practices.

600
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,160
Speaker 1: And we talked to coach Marone, we talked to Keena

601
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:06,679
Speaker 1: macartell and he said, yes, we can't yell at a

602
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:08,639
Speaker 1: guy if he messes up in the game if we

603
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:10,720
Speaker 1: didn't expose it to him in practice. So we all

604
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:14,640
Speaker 1: look forward to the team segments of practice because that's

605
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:17,040
Speaker 1: when you see the eleven on eleven. Well, the interesting

606
00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:19,359
Speaker 1: part about the Joy practices on side by side field,

607
00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:22,359
Speaker 1: you have the Jaguars offense against the Vikings defense and

608
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:24,800
Speaker 1: the Jaguars defense against the Vikings offense. I mean it's

609
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:27,359
Speaker 1: like a buffet, Go watch what you want to watch.

610
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 1: And what was really interesting was yesterday they had one

611
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,399
Speaker 1: scoreboard up and both teams were doing the exact same thing.

612
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:38,720
Speaker 1: Fifty one seconds left to play third down in eighteen.

613
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 1: That's really what training camp has become. It's not so

614
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:46,040
Speaker 1: much about coming up here and running your offense against

615
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:50,280
Speaker 1: running their defense or vice versa. It's about situations. And

616
00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 1: Keena McCardell said to us yesterday, Look, I can't be

617
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:56,720
Speaker 1: mad at a kid if he faces third down and

618
00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,600
Speaker 1: sixteen with fifty seconds left and we haven't at least

619
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:03,760
Speaker 1: talked about here's what we're gonna see. Football, Thanks in

620
00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:06,640
Speaker 1: large part to Bill Belichick, has become more of a

621
00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:10,480
Speaker 1: situational coaching and training camp now has become that way too.

622
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,880
Speaker 1: And it's almost as you said, Ryan, with the time

623
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 1: that you have, the way practices are structured, you're not

624
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 1: able to get in situations for two and a half hours.

625
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 1: You have to have individual work early, you have to

626
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 1: have something. So it's really impossible for the coaches to

627
00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:30,360
Speaker 1: have covered every possible situation enough for every player to

628
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:34,160
Speaker 1: be just down drilled into it. There's still situations where

629
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 1: the player, the intelligence of the player in the football savvy,

630
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:39,320
Speaker 1: the player has to come out what's it's actually there,

631
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:43,400
Speaker 1: you know, Doug, And the way these coaches are, there

632
00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:46,120
Speaker 1: are a litany of things that they're not able to

633
00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 1: get to enough. But you do the best you can

634
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 1: and you put them in the situations that translate to

635
00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 1: as many other situations as possible. And Fred said to

636
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:56,840
Speaker 1: me yesterday people were called that Fred finished his career

637
00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:58,800
Speaker 1: with the Patriots and with Belichick, and he said he

638
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:02,680
Speaker 1: wasn't surprised when the Patriots came from behind to beat

639
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,560
Speaker 1: the Falcons and the Super Bowl. He said, because the

640
00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:09,240
Speaker 1: situations were all laid out. That's the way Belichick coaches.

641
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 1: They looked at Atlanta, who had a bunch of twenty

642
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:14,400
Speaker 1: point leads, and they knew that Atlanta was going to

643
00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 1: jump out, and they knew the defenses that Atlanta liked

644
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:20,720
Speaker 1: to play when they were ahead, and so all they

645
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:23,800
Speaker 1: do is practiced those kinds of situations. And because of

646
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 1: the success they've had, Belichick's influence on training camp and

647
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 1: on practice has has made it a very situational type

648
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 1: of deal. It's funny when we we talked to three

649
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 1: guys about that and they all mentioned Bill Belichick without

650
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:38,959
Speaker 1: talking to each other. So you know that he has

651
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:42,440
Speaker 1: a huge influence in that all right, big big thing

652
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:45,080
Speaker 1: three team has his back. So we all know what

653
00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,680
Speaker 1: happened this week with Jalen Ramsey and the GICU article

654
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,680
Speaker 1: where he was giving his opinion on quarterbacks. So we

655
00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:52,720
Speaker 1: didn't really hear much about the team, but what they

656
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:54,880
Speaker 1: thought of it. Yesterday we spoke to Blake Bortles and

657
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 1: Class Campbell, who had a bite about it. A lot

658
00:30:57,680 --> 00:30:59,320
Speaker 1: of stuff has been said about me and it never

659
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:01,600
Speaker 1: affected me. So I imagine most of those guys that

660
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:04,600
Speaker 1: um were mentioned and some of that stuff probably brushed

661
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:06,760
Speaker 1: it off and um, you know, if they took it

662
00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:09,480
Speaker 1: too hard or whatever, then uh, they probably got bigger

663
00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:12,160
Speaker 1: problems than than that. He has opinions, you know, and

664
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:14,719
Speaker 1: he likes voicing them, and you know it makes him

665
00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:16,280
Speaker 1: a special guy, you know. I mean, I love how

666
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:17,960
Speaker 1: authentic he is. You know, he doesn't beat around the

667
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:19,920
Speaker 1: bush at all. Uh. You know, some of those guys

668
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:22,080
Speaker 1: might try to, you know, play their best games against us,

669
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 1: but that's how I was supposed to be. Anyway, it's

670
00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:26,080
Speaker 1: good football. You know. We'll be rally behind him, you know,

671
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:29,880
Speaker 1: and uh, play hard together and hopefully we can make

672
00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:36,640
Speaker 1: him look, you know, like he knows he's talking about So.

673
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:39,400
Speaker 1: I liked when Blake Bortles said, you know, as a quarterback,

674
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:42,080
Speaker 1: if you can't handle someone giving your opinion on you,

675
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 1: it shouldn't affect your game. Planet shouldn't affect how you

676
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:47,840
Speaker 1: go on the field. Nothing should be an opinion on that. Um,

677
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:50,600
Speaker 1: this could have been a big distraction this week. I

678
00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:53,000
Speaker 1: don't get the sense talking to guys that it is

679
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:56,520
Speaker 1: they know who Jalen is, they understand what he brings

680
00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:59,960
Speaker 1: to the team. I thought different guys were obviously more

681
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:02,000
Speaker 1: willing to go into depth. Kelvin Smith didn't want to

682
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:03,600
Speaker 1: talk about it at all, Right, But when you have

683
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:05,719
Speaker 1: the leader of the offense and the leader of the defense,

684
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,200
Speaker 1: most thing, it's it's no big deal. It's about performance

685
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 1: that sets the tone for the entire locker room. What

686
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:14,800
Speaker 1: could have been a a really difficult week in an

687
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:18,959
Speaker 1: ugly week has been pretty smooth. Well as far as

688
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:24,560
Speaker 1: the g Q article specific, Um, it's not. I mean,

689
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:27,840
Speaker 1: it's not like the teammates would be surprised that Jail

690
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:30,840
Speaker 1: They get it, they get who is They've been around

691
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:34,760
Speaker 1: him for two years. They like that part of them,

692
00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:38,640
Speaker 1: they like being around him. They've it was a team

693
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:41,560
Speaker 1: last year if you remember that on several occasions to

694
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:47,240
Speaker 1: Sean Gibson going to Cleveland. Uh was very outspoken about Cleveland.

695
00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:50,400
Speaker 1: There were other situations. Uh, there was the Blake Boarder

696
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:54,920
Speaker 1: situation late in the season where other teams we're criticizing him.

697
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,760
Speaker 1: The theme of this team in the last six weeks

698
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 1: this season last year was we're gonna rally around our guys,

699
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:04,560
Speaker 1: And especially after the after the Ta Sean thing, all

700
00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:06,640
Speaker 1: the players were like, look, he'd say whatever he wants

701
00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 1: to say, We're gonna have his back. Um. First of all,

702
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:12,720
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody on the on the team, when

703
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:15,120
Speaker 1: they read the article, we're probably surprised if if you

704
00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:16,640
Speaker 1: had picked one guy to do those things and the

705
00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:20,040
Speaker 1: team had been jailing. So I didn't expect it to

706
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:22,000
Speaker 1: be a big distraction for him. I thought the best

707
00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:26,040
Speaker 1: part was Blake's final quote when he talked about, you know,

708
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:29,680
Speaker 1: people have been critical to me. If if quarterbacks are

709
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:32,800
Speaker 1: gonna worry about that, they probably have bigger problems. Vintage

710
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:36,280
Speaker 1: Vintage all right. I don't think there's anything more to say.

711
00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:39,520
Speaker 1: What will be interesting is Jalen returns on Monday. Uh

712
00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:42,760
Speaker 1: during training camp, the locker room isn't open. They bring

713
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:46,400
Speaker 1: players to us Monday, Jalen's back and the locker room

714
00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:49,600
Speaker 1: is open to the media. That'll be fun. I think

715
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:53,080
Speaker 1: it could be a storyline. Probably probably will be all right.

716
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:55,360
Speaker 1: That'll do it for big things. We'll take another break

717
00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:58,760
Speaker 1: and return with more Jags Drive time on a Friday

718

00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:35,719
Speaker 1: feel about that? Thank you for that? Do you feel

763
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 1: better now? But I appreciated the effort. All right, folks,

764
00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 1: here we go, Here we go. I think you should

765
00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:50,440
Speaker 1: go first zone on guys to watch this week. UM.

766
00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:53,240
Speaker 1: I chose Leonard for Nett for this, and it's really

767
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:58,080
Speaker 1: more the entire offensive line, the run blocking. UM. It's

768
00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:02,640
Speaker 1: difficult in preseason to get a completely accurate feeld because

769
00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:06,799
Speaker 1: so much of The running game is how you do

770
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:10,080
Speaker 1: it over four quarters. Especially with this team, it's commitment

771
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,600
Speaker 1: to it. They're gonna be times during a game where

772
00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:15,080
Speaker 1: they don't run well early where they get to it late.

773
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:19,359
Speaker 1: So I don't necessarily think that if if they don't

774
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:23,600
Speaker 1: run well in a preseason game, it's a disaster. Important

775
00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:25,200
Speaker 1: and it's so important for this team to be able

776
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 1: to run. This is not going to be a team

777
00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:31,759
Speaker 1: that plays the running shoot pop gun offense. It's gonna

778
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:35,160
Speaker 1: base itself on the running game. I'd like to see

779
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:38,480
Speaker 1: maybe a couple more series from that first team bunch

780
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 1: and see if they can do for an extended period

781
00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:45,359
Speaker 1: what they did early. All of that said, I don't

782
00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:47,280
Speaker 1: think you're gonna get the real test of this running

783
00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:50,560
Speaker 1: game until Andrew Norwell gets back. So let's see what

784
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:52,520
Speaker 1: happens tomorrow night and see if it will or tomorw

785
00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:56,960
Speaker 1: afternoon and see if it can translate going forward. My

786
00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:58,600
Speaker 1: guy to watch is dj he and I thought he

787
00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:00,239
Speaker 1: had the play of the day yesterday win and he

788
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:02,759
Speaker 1: got an interception from Kirk Cousins in the final play

789
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:04,799
Speaker 1: of the eleven on eleven. Kind of a jack of

790
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:07,799
Speaker 1: all trades. D J Hayden first round pick, and he's

791
00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:10,200
Speaker 1: really I think with all this Jalen Ramsey stuff going on,

792
00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:12,120
Speaker 1: a lot of guys are getting the chance to prove

793
00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 1: themselves and I think this week he's definitely done that.

794
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:16,160
Speaker 1: So I think on Saturday, I'm excited to watch him

795
00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:18,520
Speaker 1: and he's a guy. Look, we've talked about the health

796
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:20,400
Speaker 1: of this defensive year ago. They were going to be

797
00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:22,279
Speaker 1: injuries in the second or they're the guys that will

798
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 1: have whether their soft tissue or things to keep them

799
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:26,919
Speaker 1: out over time. They're going to have to have DJ

800
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:30,920
Speaker 1: Hayden play multiple roles. So for him, Uh, every preseason

801
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:34,040
Speaker 1: rep on the outside is a big rep. Um. That

802
00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:36,439
Speaker 1: was a big time interception by the way that he had.

803
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 1: He was twelfth overall pick, debated Kirk Cousins um and

804
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:42,560
Speaker 1: it was a big time veteran interception thing with d

805
00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:49,560
Speaker 1: J Hayden. Good cover guy. Aaron Colvin was a fantastic nickelback. Uh,

806
00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:52,240
Speaker 1: they feel better about d J Hayden if something happens

807
00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:56,120
Speaker 1: to the outside outside guys that they're in better shape.

808
00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:59,640
Speaker 1: So is he gonna be the blitz nickel that Aaron was?

809
00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:02,319
Speaker 1: I don't know In terms of coverage in terms of

810
00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:04,080
Speaker 1: being able to slide outside of something that happens to

811
00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:05,840
Speaker 1: one of those top guys. They feel like they're in

812
00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 1: good shape with him. Yeah, just options as a whole. Right.

813
00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 1: So my guy is Cam Robinson, and we talked about

814
00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:13,720
Speaker 1: you know him this week against the Neil Hunter um.

815
00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:15,640
Speaker 1: But I go back to the a f C Championship

816
00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:18,840
Speaker 1: game and and when the game was on the line,

817
00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:22,440
Speaker 1: James Harrison, who's what forty years old, had a couple

818
00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:25,840
Speaker 1: of rushes against Cam where he won. So when the

819
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,399
Speaker 1: game is at its biggest moment and you're facing the

820
00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:30,839
Speaker 1: best pass rusher, the other team has to send it you.

821
00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:34,279
Speaker 1: He needs to be better this week. Getting the opportunity

822
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:36,479
Speaker 1: to line up against these Vikings. He did not see

823
00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:39,880
Speaker 1: Everson Griffin, uh, the all Pro pass rushing defensive end

824
00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:42,320
Speaker 1: for the Vikings, who did not practice this week because

825
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:45,000
Speaker 1: of injury may or may not play on Saturday. They

826
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:47,440
Speaker 1: hadn't said anything is of yesterday, but the chance to

827
00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 1: get the reps in a preseason game. I know it's

828
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:52,040
Speaker 1: not the same as a playoff game, but lining up

829
00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:55,279
Speaker 1: knowing you've got to stop that guy, I need to

830
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:58,399
Speaker 1: see more from him. In Key moments this year, and

831
00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:01,759
Speaker 1: reps like this in the preseason go a long way

832
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:05,600
Speaker 1: towards it. So for however long the first team offensive

833
00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:07,720
Speaker 1: line plays and he plays, I'll have my eyes focused

834
00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:10,279
Speaker 1: on him, and I'll be watching Borders too. It'll be

835
00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:13,920
Speaker 1: frank because it wasn't a great practice for the passing

836
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:18,280
Speaker 1: offense on Wednesday. This is a tough team to pass

837
00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:21,520
Speaker 1: well against. They looked so good early. It was such

838
00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:25,040
Speaker 1: a good drive against the Saints. I anticipated maybe playing

839
00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:27,839
Speaker 1: two this week. You would like to see. I don't

840
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:29,600
Speaker 1: know if you're gonna if you're gonna go right down

841
00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:31,759
Speaker 1: to score touchdown this team, but you want to see

842
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:34,400
Speaker 1: some first downs. You want to see these receivers who

843
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:37,040
Speaker 1: looked really good against the Saints be able to at

844
00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:39,839
Speaker 1: least get a sniff of separation against the secondary. If

845
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:42,160
Speaker 1: they play well tomorrow night, it's a good or they

846
00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:44,440
Speaker 1: play it to more afternoon, it's a good sign for

847
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:48,680
Speaker 1: these guys, and it's a good test because for two

848
00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:50,879
Speaker 1: series at least, I think they're gonna get a good

849
00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:52,920
Speaker 1: test for this first team defense. All right, So that

850
00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:56,920
Speaker 1: wraps up Jack's drive time from Minneapolis. We certainly appreciate

851
00:40:57,440 --> 00:41:00,120
