21
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 1: out of the darkness retreat. I was gone for a

22
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 1: little while, hung out. No, it was it was by myself,

23
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,679
Speaker 1: and I came, I got some things together and now

24
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 1: I'm back. Baby. Where would you ever consider doing a

25
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 1: darkness retreat? Well, I mean it seemed like the Rogers

26
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:39,039
Speaker 1: when wasn't quite you know, as advertised like that you

27
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 1: could turn on the lights anytime he wanted to, and

28
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,840
Speaker 1: they had food bring, you know, like room service. It

29
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 1: wasn't like he was roughing it. Yeah, I don't I

30
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 1: don't get that. I don't know, man, I mean who knows.

31
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 1: Just kind of have a who knows conversation with somebody

32
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 1: last week and I was sitting there saying, I was it,

33
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 1: isn't sunlight really good for you vitamin D? Well, if

34
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 1: you're a vampire. Darkness is sometimes, you know, like when

35
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 1: if you look at the incidences of depression of the

36
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 1: cities that don't have as much sun or where the

37
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 1: highest incidents of depression is. So why would you want

38
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,799
Speaker 1: to put yourself in seclusion in darkness? I don't know.

39
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 1: That's a good question for him, but we're not covering

40
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: the Packers or the Jets beat thing. He needs a

41
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 1: little sun is what he needs. We've got plenty to

42
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:26,559
Speaker 1: get to in this show. We'll get to the Rogers situation.

43
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 1: What's the next step there? Lamar Jackson All that coming

44
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 1: up a little bit later in the show, but let's

45
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 1: start with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Imagine that Jacks owners Shot

46
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 1: Con doesn't have a lot of media interviews throughout the year.

47
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 1: There's only a few times a year he speaks. One

48
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 1: of those is normally at the NFL annual meeting commonly

49
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,679
Speaker 1: known as the owners meetings. That happened this week in Arizona,

50
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 1: and he sat down with Jaguar senior writer John Oser

51
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 1: at the Arizona Biltmore in Phoenix this week, and the

52
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 1: question was about the reaction of the Jaguar success from

53
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 1: other owners around the league. You know, I think we've

54
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 1: cracked the code. You know, we've got a great head coach,

55
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 1: we've got a great general manager, and we have a

56
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:17,519
Speaker 1: great quarterback. And that's the trifecta for success in the NFL.

57
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 1: And you're enjoying it. You've waited a while to have

58
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:25,679
Speaker 1: this feeling hanity. Yeah, I mean absolutely, I think it's

59
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 1: taken a while. But I'm glad it's happening. I'm glad

60
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,240
Speaker 1: for me, I'm glad for all the fans. All right,

61
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 1: so that's the owner. Of course they haven't. Yeah, head coach,

62
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 1: GM quarterback. That's the trifecta. They've cracked the code. He said,

63
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 1: all right, that's a good start. Well you hope so,

64
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 1: but you know, sustained success is where you want to

65
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 1: be at. You don't want to have one year or

66
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 1: you had that back in seventeen and then the next

67
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 1: year you just kind of fell by the wayside. I'm

68
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 1: not saying that this team is going to do that.

69
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 1: I think this team is going to be successful for

70
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 1: a very long time because of the quarterback situation that

71
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 1: they have. But but that's what you're shooting for. And

72
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 1: and by the way, Shot Con I mean just dapper dap. Yeah,

73
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 1: if you watch that on Jaguars dot com, John, can

74
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 1: we get him a clothing allowance sponsorship? We need to

75
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: work on this, come on, yeh. But but but Shot

76
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,839
Speaker 1: looks good man, he's he's sharp. Oh you know, I

77
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 1: think there were some travel issues, their baggage got lost.

78
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:28,160
Speaker 1: Excuse like they don't have clothing stores in Arizona. Really,

79
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,480
Speaker 1: I don't know what happened. That is truthful. I'm just

80
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 1: saying I don't know. Okay, anyway, you gotta do what

81
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 1: you gotta do. Yeah, well you, uh but but anyway, uh,

82
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: Jaguars dot com, you can see the whole interview, the

83
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:43,119
Speaker 1: whole thing I think it went. Happened this morning, Okay,

84
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,480
Speaker 1: in fact, so check it out. Yeah, the full conversation

85
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:49,159
Speaker 1: about eight minutes or so. Did you lose your luggage?

86
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 1: I wasn't there. Oh you didn't get invited? No, oh

87
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 1: I was not invited yet again that's okay, though not

88
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 1: better about it at all. It's fine. The the accommodations

89
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 1: at the biltmore, from what I stand, are just a

90
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 1: little bit plush. They don't really hold those uh no

91
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 1: offense to the Motel six but at those kind of places,

92
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 1: you know, the holiday ends quite Motel sixes. I'm not

93
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 1: gonna happen. No, no, no, they're you know, they try

94
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,120
Speaker 1: to alternate it on one time it's on the West

95
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 1: Coast somewhere out there, usually in Arizona, and another time

96
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 1: it's in Florida. They've had it an assortment of places

97
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,840
Speaker 1: here in Florida, the Breakers in Palm Beach, They've had

98
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 1: it at the Ritz in Orlando. They is warm weather,

99
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:35,360
Speaker 1: warm weather, Okay, nice accommodations, It's very nice accommodations. Yes,

100
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 1: usually a beach or some kind of outdoor area involved. Yeah,

101
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 1: there's a lot of sand in Arizona, but not much.

102
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,240
Speaker 1: It's true. Good point. This is Jaguars Happy Hour on

103
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:48,119
Speaker 1: Tinton Nexcel Jaguars dot Com JP Shadrick with Jeff Logaman Well.

104
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 1: Earlier in the week. Doug Peterson, Jaguars head coach, speaking

105
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 1: at the meetings this week. The AFC Coaches Breakfast was

106
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 1: Monday morning. Of course, a big season for quarterback, Trevor

107
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 1: Lawrence said, the head coach has high expectations moving ahead.

108
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,280
Speaker 1: I truly believe that he there's so much more for

109
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 1: him and and and he's he wants that, you know,

110
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:12,719
Speaker 1: and he's willing to He's willing to do what it

111
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,600
Speaker 1: takes to to work. And and uh, that's what you

112
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:19,360
Speaker 1: want um as the leader of your football team, right,

113
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:23,279
Speaker 1: and that that rubs off on the rest of your team. Yeah,

114
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,720
Speaker 1: So you start with a quarterback that confidence is now

115
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:29,239
Speaker 1: year two in the system. They've added a weapon around

116
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,359
Speaker 1: him and Ridley, They've got all the other guys back.

117
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 1: They've spent some equity in the draft, obviously in free

118
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,800
Speaker 1: agency last year in the offensive line as well to

119
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 1: bolster that. I mean, if they don't succeed offensively, it's

120
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 1: not for a lack of trying and personnel and people

121
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:46,120
Speaker 1: around the quarterback. Well, you still have to add components,

122
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 1: and then the players that have success last year need

123
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,599
Speaker 1: to continue to build on their game. So you just

124
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,159
Speaker 1: don't assume, Okay, well, you know, Christian Kirk is going

125
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:59,159
Speaker 1: to be great again this year and and uh Etn

126
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,360
Speaker 1: is going to be explosive again. I mean, you don't

127
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,280
Speaker 1: assume anything in this game. I think the one thing

128
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 1: that's imperative to happen in this offseason, and it's specifically

129
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 1: with Trevor Lawrence and the great teams have quarterbacks that

130
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 1: had the ability to raise their level of play each

131
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 1: and every year early in their career, and then once

132
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 1: they reach a certain level, then okay, then it's about

133
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 1: maintaining that level and still performing at that high level.

134
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 1: But it's important for Trevor to be even more diligent

135
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 1: and more hard working this year to show his teammates

136
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 1: that that's what it's all about, that that's what it takes.

137
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: That's what it took last year, and that's what it's

138
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 1: going to take this year. When the quarterback is your

139
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:51,040
Speaker 1: tone center with work ethic, you have great leadership. And

140
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 1: if you need an example, look at the Tom Brady example.

141
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 1: I mean, was he not one of the hardest workers

142
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 1: in the off season. The way he trained, the way

143
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 1: he prepared, the way he worked with his teammates, He

144
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 1: set the example. And if Trevor can do that, great

145
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 1: things can happen, and he can take not only himself,

146
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 1: but then he takes the people around him to a

147
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 1: really high level. And that's that's where you achieve greatness.

148
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 1: And that's where an individual can achieve greatness is by

149
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:25,480
Speaker 1: being great himself, but then by pulling those around him

150
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 1: to a higher level that they could not have achieved

151
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 1: on their own. Is that, Hey, let's go to the

152
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 1: high school field and throw a bunch. It's whatever it takes,

153
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,559
Speaker 1: whatever it takes, whatever it takes, whether it's hey, look

154
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:40,080
Speaker 1: let's get together and watch they did that last year. Yes, yeah,

155
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 1: getting together and some other location that you can the Bahamas.

156
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 1: They did that last to three or four hours and

157
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 1: then the rest of the time you have some fun. Yeah.

158
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 1: So I mean there's a there's a tremendous opportunity for

159
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 1: him in year two when I say year two, year

160
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 1: two hundred, Dug Peterson year three in his career to

161
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 1: where he can he can take others to a higher level,

162
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:05,120
Speaker 1: because that's the true greatness of leadership is being able

163
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 1: to elevate those around you, and that's what Tom Brady

164
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 1: did for years. I mean, you look at the offensive

165
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 1: line as an individual person, you look at the skill

166
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 1: positioned players that he had did. I mean, the greatest

167
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 1: player he ever had was Randy Moss and the year

168
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,559
Speaker 1: that they had together was I mean unbelievable it was.

169
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,440
Speaker 1: But then some of the other wide receivers that he had,

170
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:32,440
Speaker 1: I mean, they're not Hall of Fame guys. They were

171
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 1: system guys. Well, I mean they were called system guys.

172
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 1: But the one thing they all had in common those

173
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:42,640
Speaker 1: guys worked sure. I mean worked. They worked in the games,

174
00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 1: they worked in the off season. And that's the kind

175
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 1: of people. That's the kind of culture that you want

176
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 1: to establish. And when you have the quarterback that is

177
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 1: establishing that man does it make it easy, But they

178
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 1: worked to have that system down so cold. That was

179
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 1: the work is every little nuance of the offense. They

180
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 1: didn't miss a beat. They could find an opening in

181
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 1: a defense, they could find it something in a route

182
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 1: that they had worked on in April that carried over.

183
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 1: And that's what that's about. That's what the work is for. Well,

184
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 1: and that's what's the next step of this offense too.

185
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 1: There might have been a few nuances of the offense

186
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 1: first year in that maybe they missed a few things,

187
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,600
Speaker 1: a couple of reads here or there. Well, now they

188
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 1: can build upon that. Well, yeah, you're trying to build.

189
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,320
Speaker 1: And then I mean it's just like you go to college.

190
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 1: You have a college major. You start out and you're

191
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 1: one hundred level classes, two hundred level classes. What was

192
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:41,079
Speaker 1: your major, Economics? And then in your latter years of college,

193
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, you're starting to go to

194
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:45,560
Speaker 1: four and five hundred level classes. You know, you're starting

195
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:49,800
Speaker 1: to to really dig deeper into some of the nuances

196
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 1: and the principles of the subject that you're studying. And

197
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 1: it's no different in football. I mean, you get to

198
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 1: a certain level in a system. Okay, now this is

199
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,199
Speaker 1: year two. Okay, now you're you're you're going to take

200
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 1: a look at some of the three hundred level classes,

201
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,240
Speaker 1: the four hundred level classes, because a lot of the

202
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:07,960
Speaker 1: stuff that the time that you're spending now is not

203
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:12,400
Speaker 1: teaching the system and the plays. Now you're teaching some

204
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:16,200
Speaker 1: of the finer points. Hey, look you know what to do. Okay,

205
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 1: but now when you do that, look for this, and

206
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 1: you can expand and and uh and even have adjustments

207
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 1: off of that because you're taking it to the next level.

208
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:32,199
Speaker 1: It was your minor football. I thought the other way around,

209
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 1: fall JP, it's University of Virginia. I forgot. It's a

210
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,679
Speaker 1: learned institution of higher learning. Corrects right, by the way,

211
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 1: did you know that Thomas Jefferson founded that? I was aware. Yes,

212
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 1: that's right. The nil money, though, it is killing UVA

213
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,680
Speaker 1: to pony up it sounds like, huh, it's just you know,

214
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 1: some some of the alarms need to pony up. It

215
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 1: sounds I would love to see the difference of nil

216
00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:00,679
Speaker 1: money at the University of Virginia come paired to the

217
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 1: niile money of Alabama. I know Texas Tech is like

218
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:06,839
Speaker 1: the highest. I don't think you want to see that.

219
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think so. No. UVA probably would

220
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:14,719
Speaker 1: pay nil money for students, like for the academia. That's

221
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:16,680
Speaker 1: what they did for you, right yeah, That's why you

222
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 1: got in there, because everything above the shoulders, right yeah. Hey,

Speaker 1: Hour on the Jaguars Digital Network. Welcome back, It's Jaguars

00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:04,239
Speaker 1: Happy Hour. It is Thursday, JP Shatrick with Jeff Flagerman,

235
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:08,560
Speaker 1: and we continue with our review of the NFL Annual

236
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:12,200
Speaker 1: Meeting in Arizona earlier this week, well coming up in

237
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 1: the next few weeks. We're gonna move forward to the

238
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 1: NFL Draft preview. We're inside a month from the traft flogs.

239
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,840
Speaker 1: It's unbelievable, it's almost I mean, obviously April is coming

240
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,319
Speaker 1: up soon. Well, it goes fast when you're when your

241
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:27,959
Speaker 1: team's in the playoffs and doing well, right, you don't

242
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,560
Speaker 1: have an offseason. I mean, the off season gets shorter

243
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,840
Speaker 1: and then you're still kind of relishing the moment that

244
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:36,960
Speaker 1: you had in the playoffs, not even thinking about the draft.

245
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 1: Whereas when you finished the season with the worst record

246
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,720
Speaker 1: in the National Football League, the first thing you're starting

247
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 1: to think about is how this team can get better

248
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,959
Speaker 1: and free amac number one and number two the draft,

249
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 1: especially when you have the number one overall pick two

250
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 1: years in a row. Yeah, it's it's gonna be nice.

251
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,440
Speaker 1: We're actually just talking about this. It's gonna be nice

252
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 1: not to have the first overall pick in the draft.

253
00:13:56,520 --> 00:14:02,680
Speaker 1: But then it's also gonna require some further studying, which

254
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,600
Speaker 1: you like to do. You're to be able to be

255
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:09,719
Speaker 1: able to I think, to be able to talk eloquently

256
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 1: about the prospects that may be available for the Jaguars

257
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,040
Speaker 1: at twenty four. Well, here's what we're gonna do for you, logs.

258
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 1: We're gonna give you a head start over the next

259
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,920
Speaker 1: three weeks or so on this show, at least on Thursdays,

260
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:25,840
Speaker 1: we're going to dedicate sometime to a different position group

261
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 1: of need for the Jags, and we'll do that starting

262
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 1: next week. Okay, all right, and we'll try to We'll

263
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,520
Speaker 1: probably have some guests on that know a little better

264
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:36,160
Speaker 1: about the prospects are in it every day. Some draft

265
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 1: guru type people might join us. We should do to

266
00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:43,680
Speaker 1: start it out just because the quarterbacks it's the hot

267
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,360
Speaker 1: sexy topic, and we know that the Jaguars have no

268
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:48,960
Speaker 1: chance of drafting a quarterback in the first round, right

269
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 1: we should start with the quarterbacks because of all the

270
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,640
Speaker 1: the well the trade that's already happened with Carolina, the

271
00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:00,760
Speaker 1: other teams that obviously are going to be picking quarterbacks,

272
00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 1: and our quarterback needy. I think that's uh, that makes

273
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 1: sense to you, doesn't it make sense to me? Everybody's

274
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:11,560
Speaker 1: looking for a quarterback until they have one. Well on

275
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 1: this team right here, you know, can you imagine being

276
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:19,200
Speaker 1: in the position that the Indianapolis Colts were. You go

277
00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 1: from Peyton Manning to Andrew Luck and you think you're

278
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:28,560
Speaker 1: good for a decade and then he besides, he doesn't

279
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 1: want to play football anymore, which is fine. I mean,

280
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 1: that's that was his decision, and I respect the heck

281
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 1: out of it. I mean a guy walked away from

282
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:41,880
Speaker 1: thirty forty fifty million dollars a year for a decade.

283
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 1: I mean, if you can't respect that, some people would say,

284
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:49,280
Speaker 1: how can you respect that? That's crazy? He had money.

285
00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 1: But I mean he's getting his brains beat in. But

286
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 1: here the Colts are who's their quarterback? They don't know yet,

287
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 1: they don't know, They do not know who's going to be.

288
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 1: So well, yeah, we'll get the position you want to

289
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,320
Speaker 1: be in, all right. I like that. Well, we'll get

290
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 1: to quarterbacks next week, and you know, we'll talk corners,

291
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:12,760
Speaker 1: we'll talk defensive line all that in the weeks ahead

292
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 1: and get some professional perspective on that from the outside

293
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 1: as well. Let's continue from this week in Arizona and

294
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 1: onto the defense now from head coach Doug Peterson. He

295
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 1: was asked at the AFC Coach's Breakfast Monday, what needs

296
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:31,160
Speaker 1: to improve the most on the defensive side. It's an

297
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 1: easy answer, but it all starts up front. Putting pressure

298
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 1: on the quarterback. And whether we're doing that with four

299
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 1: guys or five guys. Um, you want to see Treyvon

300
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 1: take take that next step in the year two, you know,

301
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 1: you want to see Josh come along again as an

302
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 1: edge rusher, you know, and and and really in his

303
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 1: fifth year, you know, make an impact you know with

304
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 1: the team, and um, you know, we're confident that both

305
00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 1: those guys can do that. We're we were excited to

306
00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 1: extend Roy, you know, and get him back. And you know,

307
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,240
Speaker 1: I think I think the Photocosi is a guy that

308
00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 1: can really make another step in the in the in

309
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,320
Speaker 1: the right direction within the scheme. And so the pieces

310
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,240
Speaker 1: are there, and now it's just a matter of continuing

311
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 1: to coach and uh improve in all areas. All right.

312
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 1: So the last couple of years they've spent a lot

313
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:21,280
Speaker 1: of equity, draft equity free agent money on the defensive

314
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:25,680
Speaker 1: line and the pass rush possible solution. They haven't really

315
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:29,359
Speaker 1: found that solution in the big picture yet, so helps

316
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 1: not on the way this year. It feels like they

317
00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:33,720
Speaker 1: didn't spend anything in free agency on it, really big

318
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:38,200
Speaker 1: money on It's over JP. I'm just telling you frontier

319
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:41,360
Speaker 1: free agency it's not coming. So you got to lean

320
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:44,760
Speaker 1: on those first round picks Josh Allen year five, contract year,

321
00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:47,640
Speaker 1: let's go, and then Trayvon Walker number one overall pick.

322
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:51,440
Speaker 1: You need to get improvement, improvement from within, but then

323
00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:55,840
Speaker 1: you also need to get healthy from within. Fatakasi is

324
00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,360
Speaker 1: a perfect example. Yeah, I mean really wasn't available much

325
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 1: last year. And also so finding his best position also

326
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:06,879
Speaker 1: would be helpful. You know, is that a nose tackle

327
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:09,359
Speaker 1: position is at a three technique. I think his perfect

328
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 1: position as a nose tackle. And if you can get

329
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:18,720
Speaker 1: improvement from Devin Lloyd, Trayvon Walker, Chad Muma, maybe one

330
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,040
Speaker 1: of your young corners all of a sudden takes a

331
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 1: big step forward can be a contributor safety. Having to

332
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,920
Speaker 1: continue to get improvement out of your young first round

333
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 1: or a couple of second round pick from a couple

334
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 1: of years ago from St. Cisco having him getting even better.

335
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:38,240
Speaker 1: I thought he made significant steps last year as the

336
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 1: season went on. But that's what you gotta have. But

337
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:45,080
Speaker 1: as I said before, it's not over yet. I mean

338
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,680
Speaker 1: there's still an opportunity for this team to get better.

339
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 1: Now the market starting to kind of dry up a

340
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 1: little bit. When I say dry up from two perspectives. One,

341
00:18:55,880 --> 00:19:00,439
Speaker 1: from the standpoint of the talent is starting to dry up,

342
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:03,680
Speaker 1: but there's still some out there. And number two is

343
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:06,600
Speaker 1: that dry up means that there's not as much money

344
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 1: available to the people that are left. So there's an

345
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 1: opportunity to bring in guys on a one year prove

346
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:16,760
Speaker 1: it deal that they want to go back in unto

347
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,440
Speaker 1: the market next year. And since they've done in the

348
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:21,800
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks a week or so, they've added

349
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 1: they've added some guys. And some of those guys, you

350
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:27,040
Speaker 1: who are they right? Okay, they're I don't want to

351
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:30,200
Speaker 1: say they're roster fillers, but they're gonna be role players,

352
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:34,359
Speaker 1: okay with this football team. So that's what needs to happen.

353
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,119
Speaker 1: But first and foremost, if you're not getting getting better

354
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:41,320
Speaker 1: from your draft, then you're you're gonna have a tough

355
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 1: time of it because you don't have the kind of

356
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:47,879
Speaker 1: money because you've spent the money last year. I think

357
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:49,720
Speaker 1: last year is like a record three hundred and twenty

358
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:52,520
Speaker 1: three million dollars of contracts or something like that last year,

359
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,120
Speaker 1: So you spent a ton of money last year. You've

360
00:19:55,160 --> 00:20:00,159
Speaker 1: restructured some guys there are still some opportunity to restructure

361
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,960
Speaker 1: more guys or to sign extend guys av an Ingram

362
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:06,439
Speaker 1: that helps your cap situation. Still got to sign your

363
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 1: draft picks when they come in seven to ten million,

364
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 1: somewhere in that range for your rookie class. And here's

365
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:16,920
Speaker 1: the one thing that you just have to kind of

366
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:20,320
Speaker 1: keep in the back of your mind while you're looking

367
00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:24,080
Speaker 1: at spending money, is that you cannot do anything to

368
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:28,600
Speaker 1: jeopardize the future of the big money that's going to

369
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 1: be going to Trevor Lawrence, which could be in the

370
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:34,240
Speaker 1: next offseason. So you have to be mindful of where

371
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:38,240
Speaker 1: your cap is at and the really not too distant future.

372
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:42,040
Speaker 1: How does tray Von Walker take a step? What does

373
00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:47,240
Speaker 1: that look feel like for the former number one overall pick? Well,

374
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:48,760
Speaker 1: I think number one is is it you need to

375
00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 1: figure out where he's going to be best at. And

376
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 1: that's that's a I think a coaching staff decision where

377
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:56,400
Speaker 1: they're gonna have to look at it and say, hey, look,

378
00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,880
Speaker 1: what's the best position that he can help us win.

379
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:07,119
Speaker 1: Is that focusing on one position? Is that playing multiple positions?

380
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 1: Is that inside outside? Does he need to gain weight,

381
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:13,919
Speaker 1: does he need to lose weight. I mean, all of

382
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,679
Speaker 1: those things I think are on the table to find

383
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:20,960
Speaker 1: out what role does he provide the best impact for

384
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:24,960
Speaker 1: this football team. I think his best position would be

385
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 1: more in line with the defensive end and a four

386
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,560
Speaker 1: three type of system. But this team has been running

387
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:35,040
Speaker 1: a three four system. Could they tweak it a little

388
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,360
Speaker 1: bit and ye maybe run a little bit more four

389
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:41,760
Speaker 1: three principles. I mean, if it's good for the team, okay,

390
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:45,240
Speaker 1: then you maybe look at that. What's the best position

391
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:49,800
Speaker 1: for Devin Lloyd? Right, there's another one ye first round pick.

392
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:54,480
Speaker 1: Can you do more with him as far as having

393
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,320
Speaker 1: him be more of an edge edge presence with this

394
00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:03,520
Speaker 1: defense instead of being in control linebacker that's in a

395
00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 1: two point stands four yards deep, trying to cover guys

396
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 1: down the field too. You know, and look, he's got

397
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:12,000
Speaker 1: to be able to do that, But the percentages of

398
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:15,080
Speaker 1: doing that versus lining up on the line of scrimmage

399
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:18,280
Speaker 1: and maybe being a guy coming off the edge, maybe

400
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:19,600
Speaker 1: you want to find a way to be able to

401
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 1: do some of that well within more So, those are

402
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:26,600
Speaker 1: the questions I think that this coaching staff went into

403
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:29,920
Speaker 1: the all season one self evaluation and then number two

404
00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:32,680
Speaker 1: now where do we go from here? I guarantee you

405
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,680
Speaker 1: that was at the top of their list. The draft

406
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 1: and develop philosophy is, yeah, you can draft, but the

407
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:40,919
Speaker 1: developer is the part of it too. These guys have

408
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:44,399
Speaker 1: to go get better on their own, and that's what

409
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 1: you say there is true when you say get better

410
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 1: on their own, because they're prohibited from working with the

411
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,480
Speaker 1: coaching staff at this point. The collective bargaining rules apply,

412
00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,639
Speaker 1: and there are ways that players can go and get better.

413
00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:02,239
Speaker 1: There's tight ends that gather in the off season and

414
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 1: they get together and work out and kind of have

415
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,440
Speaker 1: what they call tight end you or something like that,

416
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:10,280
Speaker 1: defensive ends. I know Von Miller gathered a bunch of

417
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 1: guys pass rush you or whatever they called that, going

418
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,560
Speaker 1: and learning from guys that did it for a long

419
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,159
Speaker 1: period of time at a high level. You know, had

420
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 1: taken an opportunity maybe talk to some of the greats

421
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:25,640
Speaker 1: of all time and spend some time with them. Going

422
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:28,119
Speaker 1: back and maybe even working with your college coach, working

423
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,560
Speaker 1: out with your college to get into the best physical

424
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 1: shape that you can prior to coming in for the

425
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:38,920
Speaker 1: off season workouts. I mean getting better physically, getting better mentally,

426
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 1: improving your diet, reshaping your body, training your body. There's

427
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:45,120
Speaker 1: so many different ways to get better, and it's as

428
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:51,359
Speaker 1: such a league has just has advanced so far and

429
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:53,240
Speaker 1: a short amount of time. When I say a short

430
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 1: amount of time to go back in the late eighties

431
00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:00,760
Speaker 1: in the league, guys just kind of worked out a

432
00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,320
Speaker 1: little bit in the off season at their home, and

433
00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 1: then they got real serious about it when they kind

434
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 1: of came in for camps, and then Jimmy Johnson came in.

435
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:11,480
Speaker 1: It became a year round thing. And now it's guys

436
00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 1: are hiring trainers to work out from the end of

437
00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:17,640
Speaker 1: the season until they can get together into April. Personal

438
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:22,520
Speaker 1: trainers working out at high end fitness type places. And

439
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:24,640
Speaker 1: then once you get together then it's all about ball

440
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:28,640
Speaker 1: and working out here with the facility, because number one,

441
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,640
Speaker 1: why would you risk working out anywhere else getting hurt

442
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:35,879
Speaker 1: and then you don't get paid. That's one thing I

443
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:38,520
Speaker 1: never figured out. A lot of guys are all the

444
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 1: dice though on then that's insanity. Why would you take

445
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:44,199
Speaker 1: that risk. A lot of guys work out on their

446
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:45,760
Speaker 1: own if they get their own in their own their

447
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:47,960
Speaker 1: own but you can't, you know, you can't work out

448
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:50,359
Speaker 1: with the quarterback and all that stuff on a field

449
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:52,600
Speaker 1: here though, so you can't any of that stuff you

450
00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:55,680
Speaker 1: have to you have to be away, yes, but weight

451
00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:57,959
Speaker 1: room and all that you can be here, but you

452
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:01,960
Speaker 1: still have the What I mean by by that JP

453
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,119
Speaker 1: is then some guys choose not to come to the

454
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:07,720
Speaker 1: voluntary on the field page and then they want to

455
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:10,280
Speaker 1: do some of that on their own. When they do

456
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 1: that on their own, then they're on their own. Then

457
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:15,160
Speaker 1: they're on their own if they get hurt, and then

458
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:16,920
Speaker 1: it would have what would be classified as a non

459
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:20,919
Speaker 1: football injury where they could potentially not get paid. Whereas

460
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:23,160
Speaker 1: if you get hurt out hurt while you're working out

461
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:26,600
Speaker 1: here at the facility doing a team drill of some kind,

462
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:30,320
Speaker 1: then the risk goes to the team if the player

463
00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:33,399
Speaker 1: gets hurt. It's Jaguars Happy Hour or on Tin ten

480
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,720
Speaker 1: we continue with the conversation out of the NFL annual

481
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:53,240
Speaker 1: meeting and this is one of the obviously the big

482
00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:56,040
Speaker 1: major meetings of the offseason for the ownership, and they

483
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,920
Speaker 1: have multiple meetings throughout the year, but this is one

484
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:05,119
Speaker 1: where they on new playing rules, a few things around

485
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:07,280
Speaker 1: the league as well, and there's a few that stood

486
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,040
Speaker 1: out this time. A lot of them passed, some of

487
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:13,159
Speaker 1: them are tabled for later discussion, but the one that

488
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:16,920
Speaker 1: really stood out was Thursday night football flexing. It was

489
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:20,200
Speaker 1: on the docket during the annual meeting this year and

490
00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:23,520
Speaker 1: the possibility of expansion of short week games for each

491
00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:27,000
Speaker 1: team that actually passed, so there's a maximum of two

492
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 1: and so you can have multiple normal Thursday night football

493
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:35,320
Speaker 1: games in a season. But the Thursday night football flexing

494
00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:39,840
Speaker 1: idea was tabled until the May meetings. And basically you

495
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:43,119
Speaker 1: would have a fifteen day window. You'd have to flex

496
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:47,720
Speaker 1: it fifteen days before the actual game, and then you

497
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,119
Speaker 1: could move a game off Sunday to Thursday, you know,

498
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,000
Speaker 1: And there's two for me. Let's start with this. I

499
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 1: get the players side of it. It's horrible to be

500
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:58,920
Speaker 1: moving games around an extra short week and player safety

501
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 1: and guys may not be ready off a Sunday. That's

502
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:04,320
Speaker 1: a quick turnaround once in a year, you know, and

503
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:06,360
Speaker 1: then obviously you do it a couple of times, then

504
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:09,480
Speaker 1: you're up against it again. So I'm not a huge

505
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:12,600
Speaker 1: fan of it from that regard, But from a viewing

506
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:16,960
Speaker 1: perspective in December, when the games really matter and hey,

507
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:20,119
Speaker 1: you want a better Thursday night game, I'm kind of

508
00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:23,399
Speaker 1: for it. If you're into just the viewing portion of

509
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:25,919
Speaker 1: this thing. Well, what they're trying to do is to

510
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:29,960
Speaker 1: keep from having a snoozer in December on Thursday Night,

511
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 1: and to make the Thursday Night package more attractive hence

512
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 1: more valuable to Amazon and then also more valuable to

513
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 1: whoever buys it into the future. And I totally understand it,

514
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:46,959
Speaker 1: but it's very difficult to ask a football team and

515
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 1: a fan base that they're making plans for a Sunday game.

516
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:54,000
Speaker 1: For example, let's say the Jaguars, We're getting ready to

517
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 1: face the Tennessee Titans, and all of a sudden it

518
00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 1: was a division game, which that division game in December

519
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:03,880
Speaker 1: might determine a huge situation within the division. And when

520
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,920
Speaker 1: they say two weeks before, hey, we're gonna make that

521
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:09,360
Speaker 1: a Thursday night game instead of being on Sunday, Well,

522
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:11,200
Speaker 1: what happened to all the people that may have made

523
00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:15,640
Speaker 1: plans to attend that game in Jacksonville or in Nashville

524
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:19,080
Speaker 1: wherever it was on a Sunday. Now sudden they have

525
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:22,720
Speaker 1: to maybe look at changing plans and making it happen

526
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 1: on a Thursday. That's hard to do, and gate revenue

527
00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:31,800
Speaker 1: is obviously very important, but TV revenue probably exceeds the

528
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:36,000
Speaker 1: gate revenue, especially when it comes to a league wide

529
00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:40,600
Speaker 1: standpoint TV revenue and the Giant's owner, I believe it

530
00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:45,160
Speaker 1: was mister Merrill. Yeah, would was one of the ones

531
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,960
Speaker 1: that spoke vehemently against it, and he said, we can't

532
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:50,520
Speaker 1: do that to our fans. Roger Goodell kind of softened

533
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,160
Speaker 1: that a little bit by saying that we have to

534
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:54,560
Speaker 1: be able to look at it from the TV audience

535
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 1: perspective as well. And look, I get it. I think

536
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 1: that is an interesting situation. I don't like the possibility

537
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:08,040
Speaker 1: of flexing something that quickly from a Saturday or a

538
00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:11,280
Speaker 1: Sunday to a Thursday just doesn't work for me. If

539
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:13,720
Speaker 1: you wanted to flex it to where you move it

540
00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:17,920
Speaker 1: a time slot, have had it, you know, have had it.

541
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:22,240
Speaker 1: I mean, what's wrong with doing that? Okay, but to

542
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:26,840
Speaker 1: make a team potential. Let's say you had a West

543
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 1: Coast trip on a Sunday and then the league flexed

544
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:34,400
Speaker 1: you because of this matchup. They did it fourteen days ago.

545
00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 1: So now you're flying back and they flexed your game

546
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:41,080
Speaker 1: the one the week's coming up, So you're landing at three, four,

547
00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 1: five am in Jacksonville and then you're trying to turn

548
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:47,840
Speaker 1: around and play a game on Thursday night that might

549
00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:51,000
Speaker 1: be on the road. See, I would like to think

550
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:54,040
Speaker 1: that the league would take all that into consideration and

551
00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:56,840
Speaker 1: be somewhat well, JP, if they were taking all that

552
00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:59,880
Speaker 1: into consideration, they would take all of that into consideration

553
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:02,640
Speaker 1: about moving it just from Sunday to a Thursday, regardless

554
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:04,720
Speaker 1: of any of that, right. I mean, so when you

555
00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:07,480
Speaker 1: say that, well, they should take that into consideration, Well,

556
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:11,360
Speaker 1: they're not taking it into consideration about having the fans

557
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:13,800
Speaker 1: be penalized, having the teams be penalized because it's an

558
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,479
Speaker 1: attractive game. We want to make the Thursday night package

559
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,320
Speaker 1: more attracted to do a national audience. So I mean

560
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 1: it's it's there by by saying that they want to

561
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:26,280
Speaker 1: do that, that's not really saying that they would consider that. Right.

562
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:32,200
Speaker 1: So it's tabled until another meeting in May, which in

563
00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:35,760
Speaker 1: which they could probably vote on it. Typically, what the

564
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 1: league will do is on something like this that can

565
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 1: be viewed as controversial, because it can be viewed as

566
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,840
Speaker 1: controversial from a fan standpoint, wait till the Players Association

567
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 1: gets involved. Is that they they throw it out there

568
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 1: to kind of test the waters a little bit, you know,

569
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:55,880
Speaker 1: and now hold their finger up to see which way

570
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:58,360
Speaker 1: the wind's bowing a little bit, and then they kind

571
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:02,080
Speaker 1: of let it simmer for a little while, and for

572
00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 1: two reasons. One to see how the reaction would be.

573
00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:11,200
Speaker 1: Number two, to maybe let the idea kind of settle

574
00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 1: on the minds of those that follow the NFL and

575
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 1: the fan base and the teams and the coaches and

576
00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:19,680
Speaker 1: the players, and then maybe circle back to it so

577
00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:22,840
Speaker 1: that when you go back to it, it's not such

578
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:27,200
Speaker 1: a complete and utter surprise if something were to pass.

579
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:31,280
Speaker 1: A couple of other changes of note, one of those

580
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 1: impacting the Jaguar is pretty quickly here, and that was

581
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:38,200
Speaker 1: the adoption of the numbers zero as a jersey option.

582
00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:41,640
Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley the first in the league to announce he's

583
00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:44,840
Speaker 1: changing to number zero or using it for the first

584
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:46,840
Speaker 1: time as a Jaguar. He announced it with a team

585
00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:51,240
Speaker 1: immediately after the results were announced after the voting, and

586
00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:53,880
Speaker 1: he will wear number zero for the Jags. It's been

587
00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:56,960
Speaker 1: a while since there's been number zero in the NFL.

588
00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:00,920
Speaker 1: The most I guess the most famous was double zero

589
00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:04,640
Speaker 1: Jim Otto, Right, yeah, no, by far. I don't you know.

590
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:09,160
Speaker 1: It's cool that they they have allowed the flexibility with

591
00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:12,160
Speaker 1: the numbers, you know, and I know Tom Brady spoke

592
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:15,840
Speaker 1: against it a couple of years ago, and I don't

593
00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:19,240
Speaker 1: quite get his argument about from a quarterback standpoint, it's

594
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:21,320
Speaker 1: hard to figure it out. Look, you figure it out,

595
00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:23,520
Speaker 1: you adapt and adjust. I mean, it's not that big

596
00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:27,240
Speaker 1: of a deal in my opinion on a quarterback. But

597
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:31,920
Speaker 1: the zero number, I think is unique. And I'm wondering

598
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:37,720
Speaker 1: did they allow other Jaguars the opportunity to have first

599
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:39,640
Speaker 1: DIBs on the zero. I'm gonna tell you. I mean,

600
00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:42,120
Speaker 1: it came out so fast after the announcement of all

601
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:44,840
Speaker 1: these changes that I would I don't know. I doubt it.

602
00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:50,959
Speaker 1: I doubt it. Do you like zero? I didn't at first.

603
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:53,080
Speaker 1: When it's changed to college a couple of years ago,

604
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:56,080
Speaker 1: I like it. But what do I care? Does it matter? No,

605
00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:58,160
Speaker 1: You're still gonna play the game. Tell you it really

606
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:01,680
Speaker 1: doesn't matter, right, But you bet you better play well

607
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 1: if you're wearing a zero. The one I don't like

608
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 1: in college is single digits on defensive lineman. That one

609
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:09,239
Speaker 1: bothers me. I don't like that well because it makes

610
00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:12,640
Speaker 1: him look fat. I just don't not a fan it does.

611
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:16,880
Speaker 1: But let's understand the single digits. It's something about the

612
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:21,200
Speaker 1: defensive line wrong, but I look zero, it's great. I

613
00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:24,560
Speaker 1: hope Calvin Ridley represents it well. He'll be the very

614
00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 1: in a very unique situation. He's going to be the

615
00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:30,200
Speaker 1: first Jaguar in history to wear the number zero. Pretty

616
00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:32,520
Speaker 1: cool stuff. And it's already out there. I don't know

617
00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:34,719
Speaker 1: if any other teams that have officially announced it yet.

618
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,880
Speaker 1: See the other Kudos to the social media team for

619
00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:40,120
Speaker 1: the Jags who helped get that out pretty quick too,

620
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:46,239
Speaker 1: and the design folks everything. The rugby scrum is gonna continue, yes, yes,

621
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:49,319
Speaker 1: And that was also came out the Philadelphia Eagles and

622
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:51,799
Speaker 1: they should not have changed that role. I know they

623
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:54,319
Speaker 1: were talking about it, and you think it's okay. Some

624
00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:57,719
Speaker 1: of the people that are on the competition committee that

625
00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:03,840
Speaker 1: are talking about this play being a higher risk of injury,

626
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:09,839
Speaker 1: I mean, in theory, here's here's their argument. I'm not

627
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:12,239
Speaker 1: saying it's right or wrong. You've got JP who got

628
00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:17,279
Speaker 1: hurt this past year because of that play, nobody, but hey,

629
00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:20,399
Speaker 1: in theory, you've got a quarterback who's two hundred and

630
00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:26,280
Speaker 1: twenty five pounds in the middle of four big defensive linemen,

631
00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:30,360
Speaker 1: four or five offensive linemen all crunched in together, and

632
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:33,759
Speaker 1: then he's getting pancake from behind by a running back

633
00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:36,600
Speaker 1: or two or three. Okay, and he's in the middle

634
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:38,719
Speaker 1: of all that. How many quarterbacks got hurt doing that

635
00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:41,879
Speaker 1: that I know of that I watched that. It's it's

636
00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:44,399
Speaker 1: a minimal contact. And when I say minimal contact, there's

637
00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:46,920
Speaker 1: bodies that are making contact, but it's it's not a

638
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:52,440
Speaker 1: high speed, a distance apart contact because it's kind of

639
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:55,279
Speaker 1: everybody's packed into a very tight area. So here's the

640
00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:58,160
Speaker 1: next step of it. Right, if the quarterbacks exposed somehow,

641
00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:00,439
Speaker 1: like on top of the pile, is he fair game?

642
00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:04,480
Speaker 1: He's a runner, damn right, So at some point somebody's

643
00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:06,960
Speaker 1: going to take a shot at a quarterback and that's Look,

644
00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:08,520
Speaker 1: he's got to be able to make sure that he

645
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:10,719
Speaker 1: runs it in a smart fashion. They've got to make

646
00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:15,440
Speaker 1: sure that they protect and teach their quarterback to protect himself.

647
00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:19,160
Speaker 1: This is also coming from the guy who chased down

648
00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:22,919
Speaker 1: quarterbacks for a living. Well, look that's your view. Look, Look,

649
00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:24,759
Speaker 1: I'm one of the guys that have said that I

650
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:28,080
Speaker 1: believe that they should protect the quarterbacks. I believe that

651
00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:30,759
Speaker 1: I liked a lot of the rules that were reasonable.

652
00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:35,080
Speaker 1: Now some of them that were unreasonable, some of the

653
00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:37,279
Speaker 1: hits that were penalized. And I know part of the

654
00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:40,200
Speaker 1: discussion at the league meetings was to make the hits

655
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:44,160
Speaker 1: on quarterbacks reviewable. Yeah, I hate that because there were

656
00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:46,759
Speaker 1: some hits this past year that were just ridiculous that

657
00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:49,040
Speaker 1: we're called rough beings. They do that, they're going back

658
00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:51,879
Speaker 1: to the past interference reviewable thing. It's a judgment call.

659
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:56,560
Speaker 1: You can't. You can't review judgment calls JP that are JP.

660
00:36:56,760 --> 00:37:01,680
Speaker 1: You can't. You saw the same I'm just I'm talking

661
00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:07,600
Speaker 1: about and they were embarrassing calls. You can't review roughing,

662
00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:10,759
Speaker 1: you can't do it. Well, I think they should make

663
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:14,719
Speaker 1: it reviewable because when our guy's instant reaction is is that, oh,

664
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:17,279
Speaker 1: you got hit, he throws the flag just out of

665
00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:21,759
Speaker 1: reaction because oh it's the quarterback. Well, that doesn't necessarily

666
00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:25,080
Speaker 1: make it a foul. I don't like. I think that

667
00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:28,120
Speaker 1: that should have been reviewable, in my opinion, because it

668
00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:31,120
Speaker 1: goes beyond judgment because a lot of times the official

669
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:35,399
Speaker 1: throws it out of a reaction anticipation almost it really does,

670
00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:40,400
Speaker 1: instead of let me look at that play and then no,

671
00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:43,200
Speaker 1: it's okay, or yeah it's was a foul. It was

672
00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:46,719
Speaker 1: almost as soon as contacts made because the league has

673
00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:49,200
Speaker 1: almost ingrained and a lot of the officials had to

674
00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:52,440
Speaker 1: protect the quarterbacks, protect the quarterbacks, protect the quarterbacks. If

675
00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:55,040
Speaker 1: they don't throw a flag, they view or concerned that

676
00:37:55,080 --> 00:38:00,480
Speaker 1: they may get downgraded anyway. Also, one more, we are

677
00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:04,120
Speaker 1: back to one preseason roster reduction date after the final

678
00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:07,960
Speaker 1: preseason game. They used to have multiple cutdowns, from ninety

679
00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:10,279
Speaker 1: to eighty five, eighty five to eighty, then eighty to

680
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:13,759
Speaker 1: fifty three. Now it's from ninety to fifty three after

681
00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:17,520
Speaker 1: the final preseason game. That's official now. Yeah, and then

682
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:20,399
Speaker 1: obviously the practice squad gets filled in. So I mean,

683
00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:23,160
Speaker 1: even though you look at ninety and fifty three, it's

684
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:27,880
Speaker 1: really not that dramatic. It really goes from ninety to

685
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:33,040
Speaker 1: seventy one, two, three, four, five somewhere in that range,

686
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:35,720
Speaker 1: because you're gonna have guys that go on injury reserve,

687
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:38,160
Speaker 1: you're gonna have guys that go to the practice squad,

688
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:40,920
Speaker 1: and some that will be on the non football injury

689
00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:43,839
Speaker 1: list or etc. That will still be there. So it's

690
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:46,640
Speaker 1: not as dramatic as ninety to fifty three, and that'll

691
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:51,640
Speaker 1: help out obviously, the last preseason game, your starter's body go, hey, guys,

692
00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:55,239
Speaker 1: your chance to get some tape? Yeah, bodies you know,

693
00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:59,200
Speaker 1: and the look I think it's great. I mean, why

694
00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:02,319
Speaker 1: not continue to allow some of these younger players to

695
00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:05,759
Speaker 1: get younger players to get snaps, to continue to have

696
00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:09,680
Speaker 1: an opportunity to show what they can do. I like

697
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:15,600
Speaker 1: the single cut as opposed to the graduated cut, but

698
00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:18,920
Speaker 1: it's gonna be. I will tell you that whenever the

699
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:23,359
Speaker 1: cuts happened, it was always dramatic, no matter what the

700
00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:26,560
Speaker 1: step was. When you went down to that final number

701
00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:29,359
Speaker 1: of fifty three, it's a dramatic change in the locker

702
00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:32,560
Speaker 1: room because you go from ninety all sudden. Even though

703
00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:35,160
Speaker 1: you have sixteen practice squad, it's still that's a pretty

704
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:37,879
Speaker 1: dramatic change because a lot of times those guys are

705
00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:42,120
Speaker 1: in another locker room. Now if we're in another locker room,

706
00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:45,200
Speaker 1: but it's it's very different. We're back in a moment.

707
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:47,879
Speaker 1: We'll go around the National Football League and we'll look

708
00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:50,360

00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:15,960
Speaker 1: history of the franchise, you know, some of the pictures

764
00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:19,560
Speaker 1: and stuff from the early days, because I think that's

765
00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:22,200
Speaker 1: very history is important. You're gonna need a space for

766
00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:25,520
Speaker 1: Lombardi Trophy as well at some point that would be great,

767
00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:27,800
Speaker 1: you know, or two that would be great. Not asking

768
00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:31,080
Speaker 1: too much, just saying, you know, least some space deer

769
00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:34,560
Speaker 1: heads on the wall. No, is that part of the

770
00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:38,080
Speaker 1: broadcast area? No, No, it's not. No, that's not not

771
00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:40,480
Speaker 1: what you're looking for. But you're you know, you know,

772
00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:45,280
Speaker 1: like a bust of Tony Biselli that's kind of replica

773
00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:47,920
Speaker 1: of the Hall of Fame. There's not a building big

774
00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:50,480
Speaker 1: enough for that. Some of the pictures from the early days,

775
00:43:50,560 --> 00:43:53,920
Speaker 1: you know, the the names that are on the inside

776
00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:56,160
Speaker 1: of the stadium, to have kind of tributes to them

777
00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:59,239
Speaker 1: and kind of what I would call the Jaguars Hall

778
00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:01,200
Speaker 1: of Fame kind of area or something of that nature

779
00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:03,520
Speaker 1: would be cool. I like that. Yeah, I like that

780
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:05,920
Speaker 1: a lot. What's the logoment area you're gonna have in it?

781
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:09,520
Speaker 1: There's no logoment are No. No, the dear head, that's

782
00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:11,680
Speaker 1: what you're gonna have. No, let's go around the National

783
00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:14,720
Speaker 1: Football League now logs and bringing on home. Two different

784
00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:17,759
Speaker 1: bids on the table for the Washington Commanders, each at

785
00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:22,319
Speaker 1: six billion dollars. There could be another one on the way,

786
00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:26,520
Speaker 1: as Jeff Bezos next to bid on the team six

787
00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:29,719
Speaker 1: billion dollars at least as a base starting line for

788
00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:35,440
Speaker 1: this team. Well, the reports are that there's one bid. Okay,

789
00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:38,000
Speaker 1: it's there's a lot of reports that are saying that

790
00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:42,600
Speaker 1: there's two that are at six billion, but the financing

791
00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:47,440
Speaker 1: supposedly is not in place for one of those two. Okay, bidders.

792
00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:49,120
Speaker 1: It's the whole point of a bid is to have

793
00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:53,520
Speaker 1: the financing too. You've got to have League approved when

794
00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:57,520
Speaker 1: it comes to the finances. And I'm sure that Daniel

795
00:44:57,520 --> 00:45:00,760
Speaker 1: Snyder would love nothing more, even though it's been reported

796
00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:02,920
Speaker 1: that he doesn't want to sell it to Bezos because

797
00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:06,200
Speaker 1: of the long standing rivalry between Daniel Schneider and The

798
00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:09,200
Speaker 1: Washington Post, which is owned by Jeff Bezos, who also

799
00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:13,399
Speaker 1: owns Amazon by the way, But yeah, he would love

800
00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:15,520
Speaker 1: to have Bezos come in and make an offer of

801
00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:19,120
Speaker 1: six and a half or seven million dollars, whatever it

802
00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:24,360
Speaker 1: may be. I'm just glad and hopeful that this saga

803
00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:29,480
Speaker 1: and the Washington Commander's history, Slash Redskins history can be

804
00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:34,360
Speaker 1: put into the past, because it has been kind of

805
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:37,040
Speaker 1: an embarrassing stretch and a little bit of a stain

806
00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:44,000
Speaker 1: on the National Football League, the situation in Washington. Klais

807
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:47,759
Speaker 1: Campbell signing with the Falcons, he said, quote, it really

808
00:45:47,840 --> 00:45:49,799
Speaker 1: came down to where I felt like I could have

809
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:52,680
Speaker 1: the biggest impact both on and off the field. Are

810
00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:57,799
Speaker 1: you doing Marvin Jones junior back with the Lions. He is.

811
00:45:58,600 --> 00:46:01,279
Speaker 1: He spent a lot of his time there before the Jaguars.

812
00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:04,120
Speaker 1: But Calais made a visit through here reportedly the other

813
00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:07,040
Speaker 1: week and then went on a vacation, came off the vacation,

814
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:10,000
Speaker 1: and he'll be in Hotlanta. Nah. You know, look, I

815
00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:13,759
Speaker 1: would have loved to have had him back here, just

816
00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:20,040
Speaker 1: because he's an exceptional person, excellent football player, but most

817
00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:24,200
Speaker 1: importantly exceptional person. Love having him around. Special really is.

818
00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:26,600
Speaker 1: And but I wish him nothing but the best. Will

819
00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:29,280
Speaker 1: always be a fan of his no matter what uniform

820
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:31,800
Speaker 1: he wears. Just have to beat him this year, Jeff

821
00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:34,239
Speaker 1: Falcons are on the schedule, aren't they? I don't know,

822
00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:37,719
Speaker 1: are they they are? Yeah? I kind of surprised that

823
00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:40,600
Speaker 1: he went to Atlanta. Who's their quarterback? They just signed

824
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:44,480
Speaker 1: a guy? Um, they just signed somebody for pretty good

825
00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:49,600
Speaker 1: money too, their quarterback. Yeah, okay, JP, I'm just telling

826
00:46:49,600 --> 00:46:54,080
Speaker 1: you they do. They have a franchise quarterback. No exactly.

827
00:46:54,760 --> 00:47:02,200
Speaker 1: And so if you're Calais, why Desmond Desmond Ridder was

828
00:47:02,239 --> 00:47:05,279
Speaker 1: the rookie last year. He's a starting quarterback and he's

829
00:47:05,640 --> 00:47:07,680
Speaker 1: not a starting quarterball. That's what they just named in

830
00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:12,000
Speaker 1: the starting quarterback. Yeah, they did for now because they

831
00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:15,080
Speaker 1: don't have anybody else. Heineck's there. Heineke's who I'm thinking of.

832
00:47:15,120 --> 00:47:17,560
Speaker 1: That's who they just saw, Taylor Heineke from the Commanders,

833
00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:22,399
Speaker 1: and he couldn't hold a job down in Washington, so

834
00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:25,040
Speaker 1: they don't have a quarterback situation. That's why I was

835
00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:26,799
Speaker 1: surprised that he went there. I figured that he would

836
00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:30,919
Speaker 1: go to some type of contending team, whether it be here,

837
00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:35,719
Speaker 1: Buffalo back to the Ravens. But with the situation with

838
00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:39,719
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson being really up in the air in questionable,

839
00:47:40,239 --> 00:47:43,040
Speaker 1: I don't know if the Ravens are a viable candidate.

840
00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:47,440
Speaker 1: New playing service installed at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford,

841
00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:50,640
Speaker 1: New Jersey. There's been some widespread criticism over the last

842
00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:54,040
Speaker 1: few years of the surface. It's improved synthetic turf a

843
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:58,399
Speaker 1: FieldTurf core system, so five forty nine ers suffered lower

844
00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:00,920
Speaker 1: body andrews in the same game against the Jets back

845
00:48:00,960 --> 00:48:04,520
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty. Ravens cornerback Kyle Fuller towards ACL there

846
00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:06,480
Speaker 1: a week one last year. That's also where to wind

847
00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:08,920
Speaker 1: smoot towards Achilles at the end of last season on

848
00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:12,360
Speaker 1: Thursday Night Football. Right. Yeah, so they've changed, They've changed

849
00:48:12,360 --> 00:48:15,120
Speaker 1: the whole field well, and I hope it's a it's

850
00:48:15,120 --> 00:48:18,880
Speaker 1: a great service. I wish every team in the league

851
00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:21,839
Speaker 1: had natural grasp, but I know that that's not an

852
00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:24,960
Speaker 1: option for some because especially like in New York where

853
00:48:24,960 --> 00:48:27,960
Speaker 1: you have multiple well New Jersey, where you have multiple

854
00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:30,400
Speaker 1: teams and events that are going to be on and

855
00:48:30,520 --> 00:48:33,040
Speaker 1: in that stadium. So it's just a it's not a

856
00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:39,920
Speaker 1: realistic approach. But there are really really, really good synthetic surfaces,

857
00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:42,920
Speaker 1: and I hope that every team in the league gets

858
00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:46,759
Speaker 1: it squared away. Look, there's some the situation that was

859
00:48:47,080 --> 00:48:50,720
Speaker 1: what in Arizona for the Super Bowl, Yeah, slipping inside

860
00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:54,799
Speaker 1: and that's not good, no, just because you had the

861
00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:58,440
Speaker 1: humidity levels that increase as it gets darker and all

862
00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:01,480
Speaker 1: sudden gods are on ice skates everywhere around. I mean,

863
00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:03,520
Speaker 1: you can't fix that. And I guess they kept it

864
00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:06,879
Speaker 1: inside too long. That's the field you can actually pull

865
00:49:06,960 --> 00:49:09,200
Speaker 1: outside to the natural sun. But they brought it in

866
00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:11,680
Speaker 1: apparently a little too early and let it the water

867
00:49:11,719 --> 00:49:14,680
Speaker 1: has stayed on it. Yeah, and they kind, not that

868
00:49:14,719 --> 00:49:18,359
Speaker 1: I'm a underplayed the surface after the fact. Oh yeah

869
00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:21,279
Speaker 1: it was fine. No, it wasn't fine. It shouldn't have

870
00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:24,279
Speaker 1: been that in that type of situation at all. If

871
00:49:24,280 --> 00:49:27,920
Speaker 1: it's a Super Bowl, the field should be impeccable, and

872
00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:30,440
Speaker 1: it was not. Thanks to our entire crew, Brent Reebru
