1
00:00:01,160 --> 00:00:05,680
Speaker 1: Jaguars. Did you don't, Jack Jack Warris, did you Jaguars

2
00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:11,119
Speaker 1: Drive Time? Bryan Sex steps that, John O says Ashley

3
00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:17,000
Speaker 1: Jaguars Drive Time starts right now here we go on

4
00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:20,400
Speaker 1: a Friday morning. The field painted yesterday, there were just

5
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:23,000
Speaker 1: lines when we started the show. The numbers began to

6
00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:25,560
Speaker 1: appear by the time we were done. And today, well

7
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:29,000
Speaker 1: look a whole lot closer to game day tomorrow night,

8
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:32,479
Speaker 1: third preseason game the Jaguars and the Falcons here on

9
00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:37,239
Speaker 1: Fox TV and Jacksonville and of course some right here

10
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:39,600
Speaker 1: at t i A a bank field. That guy right there,

11
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:43,279
Speaker 1: did you Westbrook? Look you to cement his spot on

12
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:45,840
Speaker 1: this roster. I think he's got one obviously, but his role,

13
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 1: I guess is probably the better way to put it.

14
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:50,800
Speaker 1: We'll talk about that and more this morning on Jags

15
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 1: Drive Time. Hi everybody, Brian Sexton, Ashlyn Sullivan, John Osier,

16
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 1: good morning. You sounded fascinated by that whole lines thing.

17
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:00,600
Speaker 1: It's like their appears people out there actually doing that knows,

18
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 1: but it was almost like a live time lapse for us.

19
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 1: Yesterday we went back and forth to it and it

20
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 1: started there were just lines, and then numbers appeared. Now,

21
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 1: and you know, he seemed amazed, like it was getting

22
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:12,760
Speaker 1: in your kitchen at You know, when you spend as

23
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 1: much time here as we do during the course of

24
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 1: training camp, sometimes it's a little thing. It was fascinating.

25
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,400
Speaker 1: There's no windows in this building, by the way, none,

26
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 1: so when you get the chance to see what's going

27
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,600
Speaker 1: on live outside, what's like our own private window. We're

28
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 1: the only people in the building that have one. So

29
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:32,480
Speaker 1: let us be amazed here this morning, smiling, nice to

30
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 1: see you. It's it's a beautiful day. Absolutely. Hey. Head

31
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,040
Speaker 1: coach Dug Morow joined us in about seven or eight minutes,

32
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 1: So let's jump right into big things and knock those

33
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,720
Speaker 1: out while we're waiting on coach man. What we got

34
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 1: Big thing one is new faces. On Saturday, we're going

35
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:47,960
Speaker 1: to see some new guys on the field that we

36
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 1: haven't seen in games during the preseason, one of them

37
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 1: being Andrew Norwell and Tavin Brian. Tim and Brian expressed

38
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 1: how exciting was just to get back on the field

39
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 1: and get hit. And I know my own stress that

40
00:01:57,960 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 1: he needs to be available on the field to make

41
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 1: things has happened. Need the big guy. Yeah, and Doug

42
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 1: wants to see him get hit. Doug, you know, and

43
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 1: Tom Causton is the same way. This regime is so

44
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 1: much more upfront and says what they believe in terms

45
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 1: of Hey, whatever you do in practice is great, but

46
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: it's what you do in the game, and Doug is

47
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 1: always pushing that front and center in his conversation. I

48
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 1: think it's by design to make sure players, to make

49
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 1: sure that's the tone around here. It's like, Okay, it's

50
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 1: great if you practice what you gotta practice hard to

51
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 1: play well, but it's what you do between those lines,

52
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 1: and that's gonna what's and that's what's gonna get you

53
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 1: on the team. Taton Bryan's on the team, but overall,

54
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 1: guys get cut and make teams around here because of

55
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 1: how they do in the field. Keep in mind also,

56
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 1: he's a guy that can play that big end spot

57
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 1: and spell Calais. He's said in the locker room many

58
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,519
Speaker 1: times he can play the three spot, which is Maleak

59
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 1: and that quick up the field guy. He's big enough

60
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 1: and strong enough. You think you could spell Abrie or

61
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 1: Morsel if they needed him to. They need the depth

62
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 1: with those older guys on that line, especially with Calais

63
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 1: out there. You want to maximize his body over the

64
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 1: course of a whole season. You need Brian to be

65
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,800
Speaker 1: that guy. He's such a wild card for this year

66
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,639
Speaker 1: in my opinions, you don't really it's easy to look

67
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,919
Speaker 1: at last year and know that with or without Taven

68
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,639
Speaker 1: Bryan they have a chance to be good. Um, if

69
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 1: he's what they think he can be, I doubt it

70
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:22,919
Speaker 1: will happen first game of season said game of the season.

71
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 1: But if he's what they think he is and all

72
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 1: of a sudden starts giving you something extra, then a

73
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 1: as we've talked about, Brian Tavin Bryant's got to be

74
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 1: good in two thousand nineteen because somebody who's good is

75
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 1: not going to be here, so he's got to be

76
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 1: good in their place. And people saw right there. Uh,

77
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 1: Andrew Norwell is also that other guy. I'm not sure

78
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 1: we'll see a whole lot from how much he impacts

79
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 1: this game or this team until we get to the

80
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 1: regular season, because that's just how the running game goes.

81
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 1: But it's nice to see him out on the field.

82
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 1: Well that's lineman in general. You'll see more of them

83
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 1: week one than you do right now. Alright, big thing

84
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 1: to time on tasks. So Doug Moran believes this third

85
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 1: preseason game is it time for the players to get

86
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: on the field play and treated almost like a regular

87
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 1: season game. Brian you picked out a quote from his

88
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 1: press conference earlier in the week and it reads, I

89
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 1: think you have to play. That has been more my philosophy. Philosophy.

90
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 1: I like to gradually build it up, and I like

91
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,480
Speaker 1: those guys to play mentally, play together communication. I have

92
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: always believed that you get better by playing faster than

93
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 1: you do by practicing. I tend to like to play

94
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 1: our starters in the third preseason game. So I saw

95
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,040
Speaker 1: a quote from Todd Gurley this morning, the Los Angeles

96
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,680
Speaker 1: Rams outstanding running back, who said that's the dream when

97
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:34,360
Speaker 1: asked about not playing at all in the preseason. Obviously,

98
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 1: Julio Jones is not playing, Devonte Freeman not playing. Jones

99
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 1: says he's completely healthy. Freemans had some concussion and had

100
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 1: some knee issues late last year, so they're trying to

101
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 1: get these guys healthy. Um. In fact, we were told

102
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:50,119
Speaker 1: yesterday by Dave Archer on this program, the Falcons color

103
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,039
Speaker 1: commentator on their radio network, that they didn't expect to

104
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,559
Speaker 1: see the Falcon starters too far into the second quarter

105
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 1: before they start pulling those guys. So philosophies are different

106
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:00,720
Speaker 1: on this. I think used to be that the third

107
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:04,040
Speaker 1: preseason game was completely addressed rehearsal. You expected starters into

108
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,800
Speaker 1: the third quarter. Different guys have different philosophies these days.

109
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 1: Uh they do. And Doug Brown's philosophy, as he stated,

110
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:14,240
Speaker 1: is likes to see guys play and likes to see

111
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:17,920
Speaker 1: them play well in the preseason. It's an old school approach,

112
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 1: but it's what got this team ready last year. A

113
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 1: big things. Big thing three is names to know. Sweech

114
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 1: picked a guy that we were going to look at

115
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 1: this week and thought that he would have a strong performance.

116
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,479
Speaker 1: I picked Ronnie Harrison, team leading five tackles last week,

117
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 1: fource bumble. I spoke to Barry Church and Gibson yesterday

118
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,040
Speaker 1: and they said what an impact he has made. The

119
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 1: same thing almost with Leon Jacobs, where he doesn't even

120
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,600
Speaker 1: seem like a rookie on that field. They both mentioned

121
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 1: the built by Bama philosophy that he came ready to

122
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 1: be in the NFL. All right, John, what you got?

123
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 1: I went Andrew Norwell and I wasn't sure if you're

124
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 1: gonna allow me to pick two or not. There could

125
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,800
Speaker 1: be because you're you're the ring leader around here. It's

126
00:05:54,800 --> 00:06:00,720
Speaker 1: your show. Um and Jeremy point out because the offensive line, Uh,

127
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 1: these guys are veterans. They can play football. But as

128
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:06,880
Speaker 1: Doug said this week, he said something interesting about seeing

129
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:09,680
Speaker 1: these guys, not necessarily the continuity thing. He's not as

130
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 1: big on on field chemistry as maybe the media likes

131
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 1: to talk about, but seeing how they react to things

132
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 1: within games, meaning how they if something goes wrong, how

133
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,840
Speaker 1: they communicate on the sidelines, how they fix it, how

134
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 1: they get that going. With Norwell especially, he hasn't been

135
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: through that with this group of teammates. So yeah, a

136
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,360
Speaker 1: couple of series where he does that would help him

137
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,040
Speaker 1: for week one. All right, And I went with Dante

138
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 1: Fowler Jr. So the Saturday morning that he returned to practice,

139
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 1: Coach Morone said in his news conference he was excited

140
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,360
Speaker 1: to see him and I watched him that day and

141
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 1: he looked. I mean, I was calling the lion because

142
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 1: the guy's so athletic and he was flying around out

143
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 1: there and I thought, boy, this looks great. Then the

144
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 1: next day the fight and the unfortunate week long suspension,

145
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,039
Speaker 1: and so then this week you come back and there's

146
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 1: all kinds of trade rumors out there, you know how

147
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 1: Twitter blows. But people would be interested in him because

148
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,240
Speaker 1: he's such an incredible act and the Jaguars drafted him

149
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 1: third overall because he's got skills. So I'm interested to

150
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 1: see how he does in whatever amount of time he's

151
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 1: on the field. I would think it would be considerable

152
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 1: because remember h didn't playing in Week one, so this

153
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 1: will probably be his greatest chance to get out on

154
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 1: the field. I want to see him and see him

155
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 1: play with some energy. Remember, this is a guy who's

156
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 1: probably not here in nineteen. He's going to be a

157
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,040
Speaker 1: free agent, so let's see if we're going to get

158
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: that kind of performance from him, that contract performance that

159
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 1: you love from a player in his final year. Three agreed,

160
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 1: all right, should we take a break because coach waiting,

161
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:40,080

00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 1: including the preseason how are you today. I'm doing well. Good,

185
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 1: nice to see it. Good seeing everyone. Um this week

186
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 1: there there appears for the first time. Not the first time,

187
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 1: but people kind are used to starters playing a lot

188
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,200
Speaker 1: more in this third preseason game, and around the league,

189
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 1: varying teams are changing up their philosophies. Yours is to

190
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 1: play them in the third game. Is that because you're

191
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 1: not going to play him in the fourth? Well, I

192
00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 1: don't want to. I don't even want to look ahead

193
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,040
Speaker 1: really to the fourth game. Right now. I'm just looking

194
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 1: at you know, this game and what we have to

195
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: do for our team, and you know, for what I

196
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 1: believe is the best for our players. So you know,

197
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,160
Speaker 1: I like, I like to play guys um in there.

198
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 1: But you know, you still have ninety you know, there's

199
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 1: still ninety people on a roster, and there's still some

200
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 1: decisions to make. But I do think you have to

201
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 1: get in there and play. I think playing is an

202
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 1: important part of preparing yourself, you know, for the for

203
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 1: the regular season. I think that you practice. Obviously that

204
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:05,719
Speaker 1: helps to some areas, but I think that you know,

205
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,679
Speaker 1: actually going out there and playing and adjusting and in

206
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,560
Speaker 1: game adjustments and and the focus and working next to

207
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 1: people are working within your unit. Those types of communication,

208
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:19,160
Speaker 1: you know, you don't really get that in practice. So, um,

209
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 1: you know, I look forward to seeing how we how

210
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 1: we react and um, you know this upcoming game. When

211
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:25,960
Speaker 1: you talked about the offensive line someone one of your

212
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 1: press commences this week, you mentioned what you just said.

213
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 1: The communication off the field obviously be important, would be

214
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 1: important for the line, but is that important for everybody

215
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 1: in preseason just to get used to game situations, even

216
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:41,720
Speaker 1: off field as you said, or on the sidelines. Yeah,

217
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:43,880
Speaker 1: I think I think so, because you know, we try

218
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 1: to simulate that in practice as much as we can,

219
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 1: but there's nothing like really going out there and doing

220
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,520
Speaker 1: it live. So you know, those situations will just come up,

221
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:53,559
Speaker 1: you know, in the game and a lot of it.

222
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 1: You know, what I think about is, you know you

223
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:59,959
Speaker 1: can see the sideline or halftime, you know, adjustments and stuff,

224
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:01,840
Speaker 1: but a lot of it I always go back to

225
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 1: when I played. You know, those eleven guys that are

226
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,080
Speaker 1: out there on the field and that huddle, there's there's

227
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 1: there's a there's probably a lot more communication going on

228
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 1: than then most people would think. When you're in that

229
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,719
Speaker 1: huddle and you know, just to get that feel of, hey,

230
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 1: you gotta get a little bit closer, Hey you gotta

231
00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 1: take this step, or hey you gotta cover me, cover

232
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 1: this gap a little bit more. You know, those are

233
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 1: the things that go on which you know happens during

234
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 1: the game. And I don't think I think it's hard

235
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 1: to simulate in practice from a situational standpoint. And I

236
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 1: asked you last week in Minnesota about about coaching situationally

237
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 1: on the practice field. Are you still in this third

238
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 1: game putting guys in different situations, you know, different lineup combinations,

239
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,959
Speaker 1: especially on special teams, just to get a look at them. Well,

240
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 1: I think you're You're right, especially probably on the special teams.

241
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 1: And and there are positions that are still open, you know,

242
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:50,480
Speaker 1: offensively and defensively. But I look at you know, you

243
00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 1: know where you are now if guys that are fighting

244
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,640
Speaker 1: for spots on his team, you know, really if if

245
00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:57,760
Speaker 1: it's it's if it's equal as far as what we

246
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 1: feel the talent level is, we're either off, it's the defense.

247
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:02,640
Speaker 1: And I think the next thing you go to is

248
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 1: what what can they contribute on special teams? So you know,

249
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:08,480
Speaker 1: I think you know, from a special team standpoint, it's

250
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,720
Speaker 1: it's a big game for a lot of players. One

251
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:12,760
Speaker 1: of the storylines this week has been a Leonard for

252
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 1: Nett his work on third downs. You talked about a

253
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 1: little bit. He talked about yesterday. He feels like he's

254
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:21,680
Speaker 1: blocking better and he's just picking things up so much better.

255
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:23,960
Speaker 1: Do you see that as well? I do, And I

256
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:26,320
Speaker 1: think that was one of the things that was talked about,

257
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,679
Speaker 1: you know, quite a bit last year, and I think sometimes,

258
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,079
Speaker 1: you know, people forget that, like, you know, how come

259
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:32,599
Speaker 1: he's not out there on third down? And it was

260
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 1: just a matter of just working, you know, working him

261
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:36,680
Speaker 1: into it. So you know now that we had the

262
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:38,959
Speaker 1: full off season and worked him into it and put

263
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 1: him out there. Uh, you know, we feel you know,

264
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 1: obviously he's a playmaker. Yelled as a playmaker. You know,

265
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,560
Speaker 1: both those guys can make plays and from a third

266
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 1: down situation and being back there. So you know, the

267
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:50,840
Speaker 1: more we can get our playmakers out on the field,

268
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:52,880
Speaker 1: the better will be. I'm sure you're getting a lot

269
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 1: of looks at guys now about trying to make this team.

270
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:57,160
Speaker 1: When does that decision happen for you? Is it one

271
00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 1: day that you sit down and say, all right, he

272
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 1: looks good, he doesn't look good? Or is it more

273
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,680
Speaker 1: are gradual knowing who's gonna make this team? Well, I

274
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 1: think you know, you know myself, Coach Coffin and Dave,

275
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 1: we we discuss it probably every single day, you know.

276
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 1: I think it's something that you know, we'll talk about,

277
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,200
Speaker 1: you know, either position groups, players or maybe the whole

278
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 1: entire roster um, but you know, will constantly be evaluating,

279
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 1: constantly talking about the players, constantly seeing where they fit in.

280
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,880
Speaker 1: We get great input from obviously the coaches and then

281
00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 1: our scouts, so we've got a lot of sets of

282
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:28,680
Speaker 1: eyes that are watching it. Because the thing you don't

283
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 1: want to do is is is you know cut a

284
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 1: player that you think can really help you. So you

285
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 1: want to make sure that you know your your dot

286
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,440
Speaker 1: normal eyes crossing all the teas. When you have a

287
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:43,520
Speaker 1: team that looks coach as settled, looks as settled in

288
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 1: many respects as your roster is, do you have a

289
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,040
Speaker 1: more competitive camp? I mean, do you find because guys know,

290
00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:50,760
Speaker 1: there are a fewer spots on a team with these

291
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,960
Speaker 1: many veterans, established players. Have you found that there's an

292
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 1: increased level of competition on this I think you're always

293
00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:00,080
Speaker 1: pushing for the increased level competition, whether you're a team

294
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,400
Speaker 1: that you know people look and say, hey, they've got

295
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 1: a lot of guys coming back, or a team that

296
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 1: you looked at they say, hey, listen, everything is wide open. Um.

297
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:11,079
Speaker 1: I think there's always a little bit more when you're

298
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,200
Speaker 1: a new head coach, just because there's a lot more adversity,

299
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:16,520
Speaker 1: meaning that the players don't really know what's gonna come

300
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 1: or how you're gonna run your camp. So to answer

301
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,400
Speaker 1: your question, I think, you know, we always want that

302
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 1: competition because you know, like I told the players before,

303
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 1: what you've done in the past, hey that that's that's fine,

304
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 1: but we're gonna evaluate people on on what they do

305
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:33,120
Speaker 1: for us. Now in this camp, there's two thousand and

306
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,840
Speaker 1: eighteen season, and and it goes back to the mistakes

307
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:37,920
Speaker 1: that you know that I've made as a coach, where

308
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 1: you know, I've had players and and didn't practice as

309
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 1: well after coming off a good football year, and we

310
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 1: you know, I know myself, I sit there and say, well,

311
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:49,560
Speaker 1: you know, he did it last year, he'll be fine.

312
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 1: He did it last year, he'll be fine. You keep

313
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 1: saying that, Then you get into the season and you're

314
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:55,760
Speaker 1: seeing the same things that he never gets back to

315
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 1: the way he plays. So you know, I've made mistakes

316
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 1: like that before and that's something that I don't want

317
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,040
Speaker 1: to do again. So maybe you guys will agree. But

318
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 1: the competition that I've watched the most is that, uh,

319
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 1: that group at punt returner, you know, the fifth wide receiver,

320
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 1: the d D Westbrook, Rashad Green, uh, Jadon Mickens. How

321
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 1: is that played out about the way that you expected

322
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 1: it or somewhat surprised you. I think it's tough. I

323
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 1: mean it's a tough decision. I think you know, all

324
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:20,760
Speaker 1: three guys have done things that you you look at

325
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:22,800
Speaker 1: and say, hey, this can really help us, And I

326
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:24,960
Speaker 1: think it'll be a tough decision, you know when we

327
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 1: get down to the you know, the final days. But

328
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 1: you know, we still have two more games to play,

329
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 1: and we have some practices in there and we'll just

330
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,480
Speaker 1: have to see how it shakes out. Did you see

331
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:35,760
Speaker 1: this coming from Rashad? I mean he missed twenty four

332
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:37,560
Speaker 1: games the last two years, and you've been around here

333
00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 1: a couple of years. Uh, he had a pretty good

334
00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:41,760
Speaker 1: O t A and had a pretty good camp and

335
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:43,560
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, He's just made play after

336
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 1: play after play a building. Yeah, I think if I

337
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:50,400
Speaker 1: wasn't here the first year with him, Uh yeah, I

338
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,080
Speaker 1: think I would be surprised. But I thought, you know,

339
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 1: looking back and seeing what he was able to do

340
00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 1: prior to his injury, he was, he was playing well

341
00:15:57,920 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 1: and doing a very good job for us, and then

342
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,280
Speaker 1: he wanted up playing in one game and had a

343
00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:04,640
Speaker 1: couple of drops and and kind of got pushed to

344
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 1: the side. So I'm not surprised to see him coming

345
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 1: back and competing. He's been a player that has a

346
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 1: lot of talent, and you know he's he's in a

347
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 1: tough competition along with a lot of those players. I

348
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 1: mean that's probably, um, you know, one of the tougher

349
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:20,480
Speaker 1: competitions or tougher decisions, you know, the wide receiver group.

350
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,520
Speaker 1: I always hesitate to ask you if you're happy about something,

351
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 1: it's probably not. But overall, with camp, I guess breaking

352
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 1: after this game ne really being in training camp mode,

353
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 1: have you gotten done what you wanted to get done

354
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 1: in terms of straining them in terms of their legs.

355
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:37,760
Speaker 1: I know you have a plan for all that we do.

356
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:39,680
Speaker 1: We have a plan for all that I feel like

357
00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:43,040
Speaker 1: we've we've we've gotten that done. Um, you know, like

358
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,880
Speaker 1: you said before, I think that, you know, I try

359
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 1: not to be happy, you know, and I mean in

360
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 1: a way that you know that I don't want to

361
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 1: ever get complacent, So I've always want to keep myself,

362
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 1: you know, on edge. And you know, I think, you know,

363
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 1: if if anything, the payers have done a nice job.

364
00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 1: They've they've worked extremely hard. They seem you know, close

365
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:07,399
Speaker 1: as a team, and and that kind of stuff, like

366
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:09,360
Speaker 1: you know, you say that and people will be like, oh,

367
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 1: that's that's great, you must feel great. Well that makes

368
00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 1: me nervous a little bit too, you know. I mean

369
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,119
Speaker 1: I like it, you know, and the players know that.

370
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,320
Speaker 1: I like it when they're they're on the edge that

371
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,560
Speaker 1: you know, I like it when they're complaining a little bit. Um,

372
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 1: you know, I like that little edge, edge edging. This

373
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 1: about a team and a coaching staff, and um, I

374
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:28,919
Speaker 1: think our players have handled things, you know, you know

375
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 1: quite well. But really the most most part of camp,

376
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:33,399
Speaker 1: just like you don't want things to be great. I'm

377
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,160
Speaker 1: sure you don't want to say you're excited about guys

378
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,040
Speaker 1: coming back on the field, But with Tavin Bryan and

379
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,440
Speaker 1: Andrew are while coming back this Saturday. Are you looking

380
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 1: forward to seeing them? Well, Andrew's a different I think

381
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 1: those are two separate issues because you look at Andrew

382
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,960
Speaker 1: and and he's played in this league, and you watched

383
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:49,640
Speaker 1: him play, and you know he's chomping at the bit

384
00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 1: to get back. So you know, I think I have

385
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,119
Speaker 1: a vision in my mind of how he played based

386
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:56,920
Speaker 1: on his past performances and and based on how he's

387
00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,919
Speaker 1: what he's done for us here. I think with with Brian,

388
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 1: you know, being a first round pick coming out of Florida,

389
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 1: you know, I see things that I like, but I

390
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,240
Speaker 1: haven't seen them in a real time action, so I

391
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 1: don't know what the results are gonna be. So I'm excited.

392
00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 1: I am excited to see him out there, uh, finally

393
00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 1: to see what he can do, because you know, I

394
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:21,959
Speaker 1: really don't have a great evaluation right now. Um. Do

395
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:25,560
Speaker 1: you realize your media conferences are becoming much watch must

396
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,480
Speaker 1: watch around here? Um? You know when you're on on

397
00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:30,480
Speaker 1: the TV, people now stop in our office. They want

398
00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 1: to see what you're gonna say. The The answer the

399
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:36,119
Speaker 1: other day to the Doug Peterson stuff was brilliant. It

400
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:39,000
Speaker 1: was I can tell you this, it was funny. And

401
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:43,120
Speaker 1: my my situation with the media and putting the word

402
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:48,160
Speaker 1: brilliant in there is is probably you're talking at tuxedos yesterday.

403
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 1: I mean, it's people all of a sudden, Hey, what's

404
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 1: Doug talking about today? Well, I mean those guys ask

405
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 1: me questions, and you know, if they ask a question,

406
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:56,439
Speaker 1: I'm just, you know, I'm going to give him an answer,

407
00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:58,720
Speaker 1: just like you know, I kind of look at the

408
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:01,120
Speaker 1: media is just kind of like what we're doing now.

409
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 1: I think that, you know, I look at it where

410
00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:06,480
Speaker 1: you know, it's just a bunch of guys um sitting

411
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:08,919
Speaker 1: and sitting at a bar having a beer, and you know,

412
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:10,679
Speaker 1: people ask you questions and you just tell them the

413
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,359
Speaker 1: truth and you just try to, um, you know, be

414
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:16,520
Speaker 1: who you are. I think that one of the things,

415
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 1: you know, is that I appreciate from our media is that,

416
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 1: you know, if you've asked me a question about injury

417
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,320
Speaker 1: or something of that nature, I'm just gonna, you know, say, listen,

418
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:27,480
Speaker 1: I'm not really gonna go there. And and and they

419
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 1: pretty much, you know, they've done a great job, and

420
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,200
Speaker 1: I appreciate it. I know they have to ask questions

421
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:35,080
Speaker 1: but they I appreciate that they understand that some some

422
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 1: questions I can answer, and um, you know, I think

423
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:41,480
Speaker 1: it's it's it's made for a good relationship and uh

424
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 1: um that that's just how I see it. I find it.

425
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:47,359
Speaker 1: I find it funny though all the time, because um,

426
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,399
Speaker 1: I'm probably one of the worst people in the media,

427
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 1: and that's when that's been my bad. I've I've worked

428
00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:55,119
Speaker 1: hard to get better at it. But um, the answer

429
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 1: the thing was when everybody went to their focus, most

430
00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,719
Speaker 1: people didn't really recognize the title of the book by

431
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 1: the author, and they went to it and they just

432
00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,960
Speaker 1: started smiling to laugh. It was just and I didn't

433
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,200
Speaker 1: mean it to take like a job or it wasn't

434
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,359
Speaker 1: something that was well thought. It's something that you know,

435
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 1: for me personally, you know, uh, you know, and reading

436
00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:16,720
Speaker 1: that book was a way for me to help myself,

437
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 1: you know, get through things because I tend to my personalities.

438
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:23,080
Speaker 1: I keep things in you know, things you know build

439
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:25,960
Speaker 1: up in me. Um, you know, I I look at

440
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:28,640
Speaker 1: everything I don't you know, feel like I missed much

441
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,399
Speaker 1: and it's a lot of a lot of weight. And

442
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:33,520
Speaker 1: then sometimes what I'm trying to do a better job

443
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:37,160
Speaker 1: of is filtering through you know, what's what's what's what's important,

444
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,440
Speaker 1: and what's not. You know, before there was a lot

445
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 1: of things that I look back out on my career

446
00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 1: and I say, you know, we'll shoot you know that

447
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:45,680
Speaker 1: I really have to, you know, go off the deep

448
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,160
Speaker 1: end on on that situation right there, that that that

449
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:50,919
Speaker 1: that's not really helping us win or lose. So you know,

450
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,359
Speaker 1: I try to, you know, read some some books in

451
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,359
Speaker 1: the off season to make sure that you know, it

452
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:57,919
Speaker 1: just helps me deal with some things, uh in a

453
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,639
Speaker 1: better way where I can just let things go, you know,

454
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:02,920
Speaker 1: off the top of my shoulder and then be able

455
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 1: to coach his team to the best of my ability.

456
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:07,320
Speaker 1: Because Mark along from the AP is pretty sure you

457
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:09,840
Speaker 1: hadn't read the book right yet to convinced well, yeah,

458
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:11,840
Speaker 1: you know a lot of times they think, well, that

459
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,399
Speaker 1: goes back to what we were talking about before the

460
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:17,280
Speaker 1: the You know, this guy's not smart enough to figure

461
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 1: that out, you know what I'm saying. I mean, he

462
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,440
Speaker 1: must have researched something or anything. I don't know, Mark,

463
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 1: I do read books in the all season. I love reading.

464
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:26,400
Speaker 1: That's one of the things I do love. And you know, yeah,

465
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 1: and then you know, I told him I have it

466
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 1: in my office, so it wasn't like it was planned

467
00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:32,080
Speaker 1: or anything like that. It's been on the best seller

468
00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:34,840
Speaker 1: list for months. Yeah, yeah, and I and I actually

469
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,440
Speaker 1: just really happened to you know, most of the time,

470
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:40,000
Speaker 1: I'm a big Stewart Woods guy. You know, I read

471
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:44,280
Speaker 1: you know, Stone Barrington novels. I really enjoy it. You know,

472
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 1: it's and the reason why I enjoy it because it's easy.

473
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:48,720
Speaker 1: You know, I can kind of figure things out, you know,

474
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,879
Speaker 1: I feel like I've accomplished something. You know. My wife

475
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:53,640
Speaker 1: gets on me because I don't. I don't read enough

476
00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 1: of of of fact, you know, but I but I do.

477
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 1: I do read a lot of that stuff. And I

478
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 1: was walking through an airport one day and just look

479
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:02,800
Speaker 1: at the best sellers list and I'm like, listen, yeah,

480
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:05,040
Speaker 1: I'd like to see that. It reminded me when I

481
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:08,199
Speaker 1: was younger, you know, when I watched that movie Risky Business,

482
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:10,360
Speaker 1: you know with Tom Cruise, when you know that one

483
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:12,800
Speaker 1: line comes up and he says that, and you know,

484
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:14,600
Speaker 1: it's like, well, you know, when I was a little

485
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,719
Speaker 1: kid growing up, was like, you know what, laughing at it,

486
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:19,720
Speaker 1: you know, and then you walk by and you see

487
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:21,520
Speaker 1: you know, you see the book. You're like, let me,

488
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:23,440
Speaker 1: let me read this. I mean, I mean, I'm in

489
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 1: at the airport. But the only thing is I had

490
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:26,960
Speaker 1: to I had to take the cover off it because

491
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 1: I was going on a plane. I don't want any

492
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:35,359
Speaker 1: children to see the cover. Risky business. As all I

493
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 1: know coaches is that people want to hear what you're

494
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:39,919
Speaker 1: saying now. So if you wanted to be better at

495
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:43,680
Speaker 1: the media, job accomplished, it's been good. I don't I don't.

496
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:45,480
Speaker 1: I appreciate that, but I don't know how much people

497
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:47,439
Speaker 1: want to hear what I say. I think it's more

498
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:49,679
Speaker 1: it's more about what the players say. Well, there's some

499
00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:51,520
Speaker 1: of that, but when you throw an answer out like that,

500
00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:54,439
Speaker 1: you've got everybody's attention. Well, if anyone's looking for like

501
00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:58,040
Speaker 1: a repeat of that type of performance, and they're gonna

502
00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:02,440
Speaker 1: be highly disappointed. So it wasn't like a Ditka press conference,

503
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 1: because when Dickie was coaching his press conferences, people would

504
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:07,080
Speaker 1: wait for them to come down on the satellite feed

505
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 1: at the end of the day on Sunday because it

506
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:12,480
Speaker 1: was so bombastic. It was just so subtle. It was fun. Yeah,

507
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:14,320
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't. I don't really want to be

508
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 1: that that guy. I really don't. I just want to

509
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:19,119
Speaker 1: be a guy that you know, you can get up

510
00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 1: there and get you know, talk to talk to the fans,

511
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:24,440
Speaker 1: tell them what's going on, you know, tell him about

512
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 1: the team. You know. I don't try to be witty

513
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 1: or any of those natures. I really don't, you know.

514
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:32,119
Speaker 1: I just want to tell them, Hey, we're working our

515
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:35,000
Speaker 1: butts off, we still got a ways to go, um,

516
00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:37,320
Speaker 1: you know, and we're going to continue to keep working.

517
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:39,719
Speaker 1: And that's really the message that I try to I

518
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:42,240
Speaker 1: try to give out. It's it's it's never perfect, you know,

519
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,639
Speaker 1: even though that's what we're striving for. You know, we

520
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,520
Speaker 1: want to obviously, it's it's a very simple, you know

521
00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:50,720
Speaker 1: process that we talk about, meaning that you know, one,

522
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:52,959
Speaker 1: we want to win the physical battle up front, you know,

523
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:55,679
Speaker 1: both on both lines, and then obviously we want to

524
00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:57,440
Speaker 1: win to turn over battle, and we want to want

525
00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,160
Speaker 1: to figure out a way they get into this fourth

526
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:01,200
Speaker 1: quarter and you know, games are close in this league

527
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 1: and fighting scratch and you know, find a way to win.

528
00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:06,520
Speaker 1: I think it's it's it's very simple from that standpoint,

529
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:10,360
Speaker 1: just one final thought camp breaks is John mentioned, um,

530
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:11,920
Speaker 1: are you sad to see camp break? Are you ready

531
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 1: to get into a regular season routine? And do you

532
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 1: enjoy camp like I do? I do enjoy camp. I

533
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:19,080
Speaker 1: enjoy camp for you know, really the main reason is

534
00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:22,520
Speaker 1: that you know, everyone knows you're in camp, and when

535
00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:25,439
Speaker 1: everyone knows you're in camp, you really don't get um

536
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:29,200
Speaker 1: people you know, calling you or asking you for things

537
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:31,760
Speaker 1: they know you're in camp, like, you know, hey, maybe

538
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:34,560
Speaker 1: I'll give my son a call. Well he's in camp,

539
00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:36,720
Speaker 1: you know, me and me, you know, And I think

540
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:38,360
Speaker 1: when you get out of camp, they think it's like,

541
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:40,160
Speaker 1: you know, all he's coming in at nine and leaving

542
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,080
Speaker 1: in five, and that's not the case at all. So

543
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:45,119
Speaker 1: I like camp because it kind of it kind of

544
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:49,680
Speaker 1: isolates you to really focus on on what's important, which

545
00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 1: is obviously right now at this time football And then um,

546
00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:55,440
Speaker 1: when camp breaks, and I think, you know, some other

547
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:57,719
Speaker 1: things start taking control. And I think that's a challenge

548
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:00,359
Speaker 1: for for our players, you know, especially the young once

549
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 1: you know, when camp breaks and now there's a little

550
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:04,879
Speaker 1: bit more free time, there's a little bit more people

551
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:06,920
Speaker 1: out of grabbing at them, you know, try to stay

552
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:09,560
Speaker 1: in the same routine because the one thing I've learned

553
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:12,479
Speaker 1: about this league it's it's it's a long season and

554
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,200
Speaker 1: you have to have a heck of a routine um

555
00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:17,280
Speaker 1: to stay at at the level you need to stay

556
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:20,520
Speaker 1: at to perform to win football game. So that's one

557
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:22,159
Speaker 1: of the things that you know, we talked about with

558
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:24,440
Speaker 1: the team quite a bit. All right, Jaguars and Falcons,

584
00:26:56,440 --> 00:27:05,959
Speaker 1: Vodka dot Com. Welcome back to Jack's Drive Time on

585
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,560
Speaker 1: this Friday morning. We just heard from head coach Doug Morn.

586
00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:12,800
Speaker 1: Now it's zones time. Ozone snapshot zone. Are you ready? Well,

587
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,399
Speaker 1: I look at those lines out look, get that end zone.

588
00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:19,719
Speaker 1: Let's say it's happened by magic. That's a nice looking field.

589
00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:23,320
Speaker 1: It is it is? Hey, I am easily amused I'm

590
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:25,480
Speaker 1: like coach just said, he likes to be simple, the

591
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:29,160
Speaker 1: little thing sometimes mean the moment. I'm ready, Oh goodness,

592
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:33,600
Speaker 1: here we go. All right, let's go embrain from Jacksonville.

593
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:37,040
Speaker 1: Is it possible Norwell Read or even Lender slide to

594
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:39,800
Speaker 1: left tackle. Read has gotten reps at center and it's

595
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,520
Speaker 1: playing like a starter at guard, seems if it turns

596
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:45,280
Speaker 1: out he's a better lineman than Cam Robinson, should he

597
00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:47,440
Speaker 1: be in the top five? That is, if Linda or

598
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 1: Norwell could work. That is, when Linda and Norwell could

599
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 1: or would do it. Is there any thought in that direction? Sorry,

600
00:27:55,000 --> 00:28:00,720
Speaker 1: you see this ash and this is knee jerk reaction

601
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:04,199
Speaker 1: to one tough game by Cam Robinson against by the

602
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:07,359
Speaker 1: way and outstanding young pass rusher into Neil Hunter. No

603
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:09,240
Speaker 1: matter who was against it was a tough game. But

604
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 1: Cam Robinson's your left tackle? Uh? First of all the

605
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 1: guys that you just reeled off, yes they could. Lender

606
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:21,400
Speaker 1: might be good enough to maybe kick out and play

607
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:24,800
Speaker 1: left tackle in a pinch. They've always talked about as versatility.

608
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,439
Speaker 1: But long term, you want Cam Robinson out there. You

609
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 1: want him to play to the level he played last

610
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:36,919
Speaker 1: year and start the process of getting better from that. Uh.

611
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:39,640
Speaker 1: They're not moving anybody out to left tackle from the

612
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 1: interior anytime soon, and I don't see that happening this year.

613
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:46,560
Speaker 1: Robinson has the ability to play, we think, at a

614
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,080
Speaker 1: much higher level than we saw last year. He's got

615
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 1: the body style for it. To Ashland. You're talking about

616
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 1: a guy who's tall and has length. Those pass rushers

617
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:55,840
Speaker 1: go wide on you want to be to get your

618
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 1: hands on them. He has good feet. He wants to

619
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:00,160
Speaker 1: be able to drop and slide and be able when

620
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:02,560
Speaker 1: a guy comes back inside again to get the long

621
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:06,080
Speaker 1: arms out there. Uh. He has played to a higher

622
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:07,960
Speaker 1: level than he is right now. He was here all

623
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 1: through the off season. I mean he was one of

624
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:11,840
Speaker 1: those guys that you saw, like Miles Jack getting out

625
00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 1: of his truck coming in here every day. He's put

626
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:16,680
Speaker 1: in the work. He's had a tough camp. I would

627
00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:19,000
Speaker 1: think that after last year. And I come back to

628
00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:21,040
Speaker 1: this all the time, the five interception game and everyone

629
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:23,640
Speaker 1: wrote off Blake. How about the fact that yesterday was

630
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:26,560
Speaker 1: the anniversary of him getting benched right in favor of

631
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:28,200
Speaker 1: Chad Henney, and we're thinking who's going to be the

632
00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:31,720
Speaker 1: quarterback here? Right? So with that in our mind as

633
00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 1: our frame of reference. Don't don't overreact to the left tackle. Yes,

634
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:39,280
Speaker 1: it was tough and he has to play better. Um,

635
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:43,200
Speaker 1: but no, it's way too early to start thinking about this. Remember,

636
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:45,920
Speaker 1: they knew him coming in here. It was going to

637
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:47,800
Speaker 1: be a project for him to be ready to play

638
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 1: at the NFL level. He played well as a rookie.

639
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,160
Speaker 1: I expect to play much better as we get into

640
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:54,880
Speaker 1: the season, agreed. And I think he has the right

641
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:56,960
Speaker 1: personality for it. He was the one that said and done.

642
00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:58,400
Speaker 1: Brown said it. He's gonna be the first one to

643
00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:00,240
Speaker 1: tell you he didn't play to the level he wanted

644
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,360
Speaker 1: to play. And with him being here every day during

645
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:04,440
Speaker 1: the off season, he's on the right track. He just

646
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:06,280
Speaker 1: has to get you know, and and for the first time,

647
00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:07,880
Speaker 1: and I kind of like this. He was a little

648
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 1: edgy in the locker room the other day. We were

649
00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 1: over talking to him and he had his phone up

650
00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 1: and he was answering the questions and he could tell

651
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:15,040
Speaker 1: he didn't he want to look into the camera. You

652
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 1: don't want to look at the reporters. He didn't want that. Um,

653
00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 1: Now I don't want to see that going forward. Cam,

654
00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,280
Speaker 1: We need you to look up and talk to us. However,

655
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 1: I liked seeing that you were agitated by it because

656
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:27,440
Speaker 1: it meant you know, you can play better, Right, So

657
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:30,120
Speaker 1: I kind of like that little edginess from Cam Robinson. Hey,

658
00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:32,000
Speaker 1: it's not a nice game and out there on the

659
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:34,160
Speaker 1: left side where you're playing against the Miles Garretts of

660
00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:35,560
Speaker 1: the world. And if you saw him last night for

661
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:38,400
Speaker 1: Cleveland against Philadelphia, buckle up, you better be ready for that.

662
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:40,960
Speaker 1: Kind of like the edge. One reason it was so

663
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 1: jolting because it hadn't happened before. Yeah, well, the fact

664
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:46,360
Speaker 1: that had happened before it leads me to believe that

665
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 1: it's more of an outlier than a trend. I said

666
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:53,280
Speaker 1: this yesterday. When the Patriots signed James Harrison late last season,

667
00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:55,640
Speaker 1: I thought, what are they doing? Thirty nine years old

668
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:58,400
Speaker 1: and late in the ball game he had two or

669
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:00,880
Speaker 1: three rushes that gave Cam trouble and forced a quick

670
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:04,160
Speaker 1: throw an errand throw by Blake. Two or three rushes

671
00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:06,240
Speaker 1: was all. It was. What you want to see from

672
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:08,560
Speaker 1: Cam is on those two or three rushes that matter

673
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 1: the most in a game, that he stops him right.

674
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 1: You may not see that, obviously, until we get into

675
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 1: a game in the fourth quarter, right ready for the

676
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:21,360
Speaker 1: next one? Oh, let's go Ambooge from Minnesota. Boy, do

677
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,760
Speaker 1: you think Jalen said all that stuff about so many

678
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,960
Speaker 1: quarterbacks is a way to bait them into throwing at him.

679
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:29,800
Speaker 1: As young corners go into the elite status, qubies tend

680
00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:33,120
Speaker 1: to shy away from them on average, So perhaps his

681
00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:35,200
Speaker 1: comments are a way to get more game action and

682
00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:38,040
Speaker 1: maybe boost up his stats. Maybe he didn't want to

683
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:43,960
Speaker 1: be bored on Jalen Ramsey. Sorry for the conspiracy theory. Um,

684
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:46,200
Speaker 1: I don't know. Well. First of all, I included this

685
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:49,680
Speaker 1: because it's welcome back Jalen knight On on Saturday. So

686
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:53,400
Speaker 1: it's always good to get rams against the quarterback that

687
00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:55,760
Speaker 1: he said was overrated, who was the m v P

688
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:57,840
Speaker 1: in two thousand sixteen. It will be good theater on

689
00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:02,520
Speaker 1: that front. Um, you know, I don't necessarily know that

690
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:05,320
Speaker 1: it was a calculated thing where Jalen sat down before

691
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:08,800
Speaker 1: the interview and went, Okay, if I talk about these quarterbacks,

692
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:13,400
Speaker 1: then they're gonna there. Um. Perhaps after the fact he

693
00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 1: may have said, what's yeah, I mean if if they

694
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 1: thought me great? Uh. My impression of Jalen from listening

695
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:26,560
Speaker 1: to him and talking to him, is that he answered

696
00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:30,640
Speaker 1: a question, uh, that he was asked and really doesn't

697
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:34,160
Speaker 1: mind shooting from the hip and doesn't really care if

698
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:36,160
Speaker 1: they throw Adam or not. Would loving them to throw

699
00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 1: at him And if that's the if that's the consequence,

700
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 1: great um. If it happens and he gets some picks

701
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:46,680
Speaker 1: out of it, then if asked, if he did it

702
00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:49,160
Speaker 1: on purpose, he'll smile and let it be known that

703
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 1: he did. He was smiling the locker room, you say,

704
00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:57,360
Speaker 1: when he saw Max here the other end of the coin,

705
00:32:57,680 --> 00:32:59,200
Speaker 1: the other end of the stick. There is that um

706
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:02,360
Speaker 1: with a boy on the other side. If you don't

707
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:04,720
Speaker 1: throw Jalen, you're throwing at him. And last year he

708
00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:07,200
Speaker 1: was tied for third in the league with six interceptions.

709
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:09,400
Speaker 1: My thought is, if if Jalen is gonna cover the

710
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 1: best receiver that you have, if he's going to cover

711
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 1: Julio Jones or on opening day Odell Beckham Jr. They're

712
00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:16,400
Speaker 1: gonna throw at him anyway. Not that they want to

713
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:17,840
Speaker 1: throw at him, but they want to throw to their

714
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:19,880
Speaker 1: best receiver. They're going to take the chance to get

715
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,600
Speaker 1: the ball in Beckham's hands against the Giants, So he

716
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:25,680
Speaker 1: didn't need to do that, all right? Last one, here

717
00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:30,120
Speaker 1: we go, John Jason from Jacksonville. John, I guess, since

718
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:32,640
Speaker 1: Blake is the best quarterback you've ever seen next to

719
00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:35,560
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning, I guess trading Fouler for Bridgewater would be

720
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,680
Speaker 1: a terrible idea. It would not help the Jaguars at all.

721
00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:42,280
Speaker 1: Sounds like Jason wants to see Bridgewater in uh teal

722
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:44,520
Speaker 1: black and white. Yeah, you know, he's one of these

723
00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:47,280
Speaker 1: questions where it's okay if you've got an extra grind five.

724
00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:54,080
Speaker 1: I don't understand the point, but uh, I don't to

725
00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:58,800
Speaker 1: get to the Bridgewater topic. Thankfully, it's sort of faded

726
00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:02,240
Speaker 1: a little bit. Um. I don't see anyway in the

727
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:06,800
Speaker 1: world that there is a Bridgewater interest, nor should they be.

728
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:12,720
Speaker 1: Blake's the quarterback. And the one year anniversary is significant

729
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:15,839
Speaker 1: because what a difference a year has made for Blake

730
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:20,880
Speaker 1: Bortles in terms of the way this organization is behind him,

731
00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:24,239
Speaker 1: the way this team is behind him, the growth. I

732
00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:26,560
Speaker 1: see no reason why that growth won't continue. Ryan correct.

733
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:28,640
Speaker 1: And that's the big thing that I take from Blake

734
00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:32,400
Speaker 1: is you've seen him go from here to here. I

735
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:34,960
Speaker 1: don't know why you would think that growth is gonna stop. Okay,

736
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:37,719
Speaker 1: so you've addressed it from the trade for Bridgewater. Let

737
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:41,279
Speaker 1: me address it from the trade Fowler. Don't do it right.

738
00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 1: You don't trade lions. You don't trade guys who can

739
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:48,320
Speaker 1: be difference makers. The last or last year, there's defense

740
00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:51,840
Speaker 1: had their starterscent of the time. That's not going not

741
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:55,200
Speaker 1: gonna happen. We might never see that again. So why

742
00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:57,479
Speaker 1: would you take a premium pass rusher and you didn't

743
00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:00,880
Speaker 1: take him third? Overall? I get the off the field staff,

744
00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:03,440
Speaker 1: but people have gotten away from the fact that this

745
00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:06,440
Speaker 1: is a good football player, a guy who's capable of

746
00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:08,839
Speaker 1: ten or more sacks. Like you told me you thought

747
00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:11,960
Speaker 1: he could get twelve to fourteen. I totally agree with

748
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,200
Speaker 1: that you can. You don't trade that kind of a

749
00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:17,040
Speaker 1: pass rusher for a backup quarterback. You don't do it.

750
00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:18,879
Speaker 1: You don't trade him anywhere. I don't care who you're

751
00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 1: trading him for. You hold onto this guy. Particularly with

752
00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:26,279
Speaker 1: what you expect this team to be this year. I

753
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:29,319
Speaker 1: expect this team to have leads. I expected to be

754
00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:31,680
Speaker 1: chasing the quarterback and then this is an avalanche. Expect

755
00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:34,239
Speaker 1: the defense to be playing a lot because they have

756
00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:38,799
Speaker 1: leads and chasing a lot. Uh, that's why I say

757
00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:40,600
Speaker 1: a lot of things. I'm sure I said Fowler at

758
00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:43,560
Speaker 1: some point I could get twelve to thirteen. I think

759
00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:47,440
Speaker 1: he can because of the fact that I think this

760
00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:50,280
Speaker 1: defense will be chasing quarterbacks a lot late in games

761
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:53,080
Speaker 1: this year, which will set that up. You'll be playing

762
00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:57,439
Speaker 1: in nickel. He plays hard. He is always playing hard,

763
00:35:57,800 --> 00:35:59,440
Speaker 1: and he's always going to get the most out of

764
00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 1: whatever he's got in that particular game. I think this

765
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:03,719
Speaker 1: defense you just said you think they'll be playing a

766
00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:06,160
Speaker 1: lot with a lead. I think if Leonard for Nette

767
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:09,759
Speaker 1: is running twelve yards a lot like the Ravens in

768
00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:12,239
Speaker 1: two thousand, they're gonna be rested on the sideline. And

769
00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:14,799
Speaker 1: if you're running waves of pass rushes, and if you're

770
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,200
Speaker 1: hitting them with Unique and Gogway and then sending Dante

771
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:22,360
Speaker 1: Fowler back on Wow, watch out, do not trade Dante Fowler.

772
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:26,560
Speaker 1: Don't do it. You heard it here first. Don't do it. Emphasis.

773
00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:30,400
Speaker 1: We'll take a break and return. Who said it is

774
00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:34,360
Speaker 1: that next? That's next here on Jags Drive Time on

775
00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:48,480

Speaker 1: brought to you by our friends at next Girl. Hopefully

797
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:17,040
Speaker 1: they bring something that they cook up to the broadcast

798
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:18,680
Speaker 1: for tomorrow. We'll take that any day of the week.

799
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:21,600
Speaker 1: Get something to say. I mean you just you look pleased.

800
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:23,680
Speaker 1: Just I'm just I can't wait to see that game

801
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:26,920
Speaker 1: with those lines on the field. It's gonna be awesome.

802
00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:31,880
Speaker 1: What's going to make a night? You shouldn't give him

803
00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:35,000
Speaker 1: any ammo. John could find ammo in a piece of

804
00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:40,640
Speaker 1: blank paper. All Right, are you ready? Is this top tweek?

805
00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:46,520
Speaker 1: But don't use the side with the lines lines. Alright,

806
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:50,360
Speaker 1: big line guy, all right, are we ready? We're going

807
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:52,640
Speaker 1: to start on a more serious note, but then we'll

808
00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:55,160
Speaker 1: get into fun tweeks. Did you tell him exactly what

809
00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:59,160
Speaker 1: you expect from him? I should lay this out. I'm

810
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:02,040
Speaker 1: going to read tweet. You're going to write out who

811
00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:07,120
Speaker 1: you think said that tweet? Okay, said the tweeter typed it. Yeah,

812
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:09,960
Speaker 1: simple enough. All right, We're gonna start with a leader

813
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:12,759
Speaker 1: on this Jaguars team who is taking a stand off

814
00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:16,520
Speaker 1: the field. I respect the flag, the military, our police officers,

815
00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:19,239
Speaker 1: and the freedom bestowed to palm me from them. I

816
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:21,680
Speaker 1: also have hoped for racial equality. I don't plan to

817
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:23,920
Speaker 1: take a knee, but I don't plan to sit quietly

818
00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:41,160
Speaker 1: about injustice either. Who said that? Nice John. We've taken

819
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:47,480
Speaker 1: a while, but it's a long name. Yep, that it is,

820
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:50,880
Speaker 1: and Brian got it. Did you guys see the tweet? Yes?

821
00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:53,480
Speaker 1: I thought it was a great I did see the tweet,

822
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:56,640
Speaker 1: and the thing that I feel about it was that

823
00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:59,880
Speaker 1: Clais is a guy in the locker room with a

824
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:03,200
Speaker 1: an unusual amount of influence. I mean he reaches across

825
00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:08,279
Speaker 1: racial lines, positional lines, uh, financial lines. Right, the highest

826
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:10,920
Speaker 1: paid guy in the locker room can can interact so

827
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:14,279
Speaker 1: effortlessly with the lowest paid guy, the guy in the

828
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:17,359
Speaker 1: equipment room. The reporters who were there, um, we said

829
00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:20,400
Speaker 1: last year when guys were taking a knee, don't just

830
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:23,719
Speaker 1: take the knee, offer some commentary on it, then go

831
00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:27,600
Speaker 1: do something in the community, be proactive, make change, don't

832
00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:30,400
Speaker 1: just make waves. Uh. He's one of those guys. So

833
00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:32,480
Speaker 1: when I saw the tweet yesterday, I was like, you

834
00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:34,879
Speaker 1: go get him close. Ye, that's exactly how you get

835
00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:38,120
Speaker 1: things done and rally people to you and the cause

836
00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:41,120
Speaker 1: that you seek to impact. He's such a I mean

837
00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,720
Speaker 1: I did see the tweet yesterday. It was hard not to. Uh.

838
00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:48,440
Speaker 1: If I hadn't, there would have been a high percentage

839
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:51,200
Speaker 1: chance that you get it right anyway, because you know

840
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:53,840
Speaker 1: what he's about, you know the way he speaks, and

841
00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:57,879
Speaker 1: he's such a strong personality that he's the right guy

842
00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:01,799
Speaker 1: to be discussing this it in a public form, and

843
00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:05,520
Speaker 1: I think he will make the point in the correct way.

844
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:08,440
Speaker 1: In our business, words are sometimes enough, right, we we

845
00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:13,000
Speaker 1: need the words, but in this case, actions are more important,

846
00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:15,520
Speaker 1: and provides him he's the guy that's going to bring

847
00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:18,520
Speaker 1: those actions absolutely. All right, Now let's go to our

848
00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:24,640
Speaker 1: second one. Are you ready? John? Here we go? Three

849
00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:30,360
Speaker 1: days I watched Nato and Baratto with my babies. Do

850
00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:36,000
Speaker 1: you know what Narato and Barato is? Really good cartoon? God?

851
00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:39,879
Speaker 1: I knew I would stump you on this one. All right,

852
00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:43,399
Speaker 1: hold on, hold on, Oh we are just stumped. There

853
00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:47,040
Speaker 1: is nothing going on. I don't know how much time

854
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:59,920
Speaker 1: you have for thoughts. I think John's got her from already. Nope,

855
00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:14,000
Speaker 1: da guess that's not an answer. Okay, all right, all right, John,

856
00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:16,640
Speaker 1: John didn't even give an answer, but go ahead, did

857
00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:28,719
Speaker 1: all right? Now that we're doing with that close? But no,

858
00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:33,000
Speaker 1: it's the guy with the most personality on offense. You

859
00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:35,600
Speaker 1: didn't say that bullets I shouldn't be given the most

860
00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:43,680
Speaker 1: person Andrew Norwell, yes, you got it. Okay again, who

861
00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:47,560
Speaker 1: has children? There we go, ding ding ding. I was

862
00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:51,080
Speaker 1: going to say you were not. You stopped me. That

863
00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:53,120
Speaker 1: was good. I knew that was a good one. I

864
00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:56,280
Speaker 1: didn't see that I did not. All right, the final

865
00:42:56,400 --> 00:43:00,160
Speaker 1: one isn't a Jaguars player, but it's very famous in

866
00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:06,520
Speaker 1: the Jaguars world. Are we ready? Blake Bortles has never

867
00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:08,319
Speaker 1: been shut out by a team coming off an oh

868
00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:13,839
Speaker 1: in sixteen season. Hence to last night's game, the Eagles game.

869
00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:18,839
Speaker 1: All right, John, looking good? Oh? I don't know about

870
00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:22,040
Speaker 1: that one. This guy does because he's the author of

871
00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:26,400
Speaker 1: the account. See, and I know it. Can we go

872
00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:29,600
Speaker 1: to me first? I'd like to be right first. That

873
00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:31,640
Speaker 1: is the n I may spelled his last name. That

874
00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:36,279
Speaker 1: Mike is the guy who does Blake Bortles facts. He

875
00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:38,239
Speaker 1: went above and beyond. Well, I read the story in

876
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:41,239
Speaker 1: the Wall Street Journal about him. No, no, no, this

877
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:43,920
Speaker 1: is deeper. This is a more significant answer because I

878
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:48,120
Speaker 1: know the name. I'm gonna give it to both of you,

879
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:50,200
Speaker 1: but we have to give it to both of us,

880
00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:52,000
Speaker 1: because Mike is going to tweet it you and say, no,

881
00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:57,040
Speaker 1: Brian's right, spell my name the account, not Mike. Whatever.

882
00:43:57,400 --> 00:44:00,560
Speaker 1: You don't want absolutely right, you just want partially right.

883
00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:02,640
Speaker 1: That's fine. Somebody gave it to him before the chef

884
00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:06,520
Speaker 1: I read the story. Should we reveal to him what

885
00:44:06,719 --> 00:44:09,160
Speaker 1: happened with the rappers? Or should we keep it a

886
00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:11,960
Speaker 1: secret in house? Well, it's not a secret in house,

887
00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:14,040
Speaker 1: since you've told everybody all of a sudden, John, I

888
00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:17,240
Speaker 1: think we should reveal what happened with the rappers in Atlanta.

889
00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:19,640
Speaker 1: I'll say it for another day. Okay. He was going

890
00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:21,600
Speaker 1: to let me have my moment. We let you have

891
00:44:21,719 --> 00:44:25,440
Speaker 1: that moment. We let you have it. Great, appreciate it.

892
00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:29,880
Speaker 1: We'll keep it t Lse. I like the fact that

893
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:34,799
Speaker 1: you gave a trio and it was clever. Sometimes, Look,

894
00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:38,359
Speaker 1: sometimes in life works in mysterious ways. Some oh God,

895
00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:41,400
Speaker 1: do we know that? Look, sometimes you just have to

896
00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:44,040
Speaker 1: own it sometimes. What was it that Gary Barnett said,

897
00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:49,560
Speaker 1: maybe five that Northwestern went into Notre Dame and beat

898
00:44:49,560 --> 00:44:51,759
Speaker 1: the fighting Irish, And he grabbed his team with about

899
00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:54,920
Speaker 1: thirty seconds left and said, now look when we win.

900
00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:58,920
Speaker 1: Pause for dramatically because they were gonna win. Act like

901
00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:01,399
Speaker 1: we've been here before, right, Act like this is something

902
00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:03,600
Speaker 1: that we do. I'll never forget that. Of course it

903
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:08,399
Speaker 1: was twenty years ago, your dignity act with class. Yeah right, yeah,

904
00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:11,839
Speaker 1: right exactly. So just act like you've been there before,

905
00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:13,759
Speaker 1: so you did with TLC. You just put it down

906
00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:15,839
Speaker 1: there like I expect to win. This is calm, cool

907
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:21,799
Speaker 1: and Mike right, good account. So I'm right, all right,

908
00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:26,520
Speaker 1: you win. Okay, time for some pregame thoughts, John, go ahead, Yeah,

909
00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:28,279
Speaker 1: I got a thought on tomorrow night's game. I'm just

910
00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:31,239
Speaker 1: riding high from my big wind just now. It's s

911
00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:32,960
Speaker 1: hard for me to have any thought. Um does he

912
00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:36,560
Speaker 1: know there's no price? It's it is dress rehearsal night.

913
00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:40,680
Speaker 1: I would like to see the offense have a couple

914
00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:44,799
Speaker 1: of drives out of their five with some efficiency. I'm

915
00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:48,080
Speaker 1: not worried about the interception from Blake last week, but

916
00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:51,600
Speaker 1: you would like with this offensive line playing. I don't

917
00:45:51,600 --> 00:45:53,759
Speaker 1: think Brandon Lender will play, but overall it will be

918
00:45:53,880 --> 00:45:57,560
Speaker 1: the offensive line. You might see some continuity things early.

919
00:45:57,719 --> 00:46:01,000
Speaker 1: At some point. You would like to see that interior

920
00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:04,000
Speaker 1: push we're talking about with Norwell, can I think Shatley

921
00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:06,759
Speaker 1: is capable of that um and you would like to

922
00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:11,640
Speaker 1: see one last warm up game from the defense where

923
00:46:11,680 --> 00:46:15,160
Speaker 1: they look like they're swarming. I have confidence we'll see that,

924
00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:19,239
Speaker 1: so uh. Overall, I liked your last question to Doug

925
00:46:19,280 --> 00:46:24,239
Speaker 1: moron The punt returner battle is to me, the most

926
00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:27,719
Speaker 1: high profile, most intriguing thing that I think we'll see

927
00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:30,000
Speaker 1: play out over the last two weeks. And I think

928
00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:33,880
Speaker 1: tomorrow night you'll see them do the same rotation with Westbrook,

929
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:36,880
Speaker 1: Mickens Green, seeing who's going to step up from that

930
00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:41,960
Speaker 1: one thought, John one thought because you just took mine. Okay, look,

931
00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:44,200
Speaker 1: I'm watching tomorrow night. I want to see Rashad Green

932
00:46:44,920 --> 00:46:48,719
Speaker 1: uh dd. Westbrook to me makes this team. Uh, and

933
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:50,600
Speaker 1: I think he's got a really good shot at winning

934
00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:53,960
Speaker 1: the punt return battle. But Rashad Green and Jada Mickens

935
00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:57,520
Speaker 1: have done things as well this preseason. I think Green

936
00:46:57,600 --> 00:47:00,279
Speaker 1: has an advantage of a Mickens because he's a slot receiver, right,

937
00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:02,600
Speaker 1: but Mickens does some explosive things with the ball in

938
00:47:02,680 --> 00:47:05,839
Speaker 1: his hands. It's maybe the most compelling battle that we've

939
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:08,439
Speaker 1: seen in training camp around here in a long time,

940
00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:11,200
Speaker 1: and it's not the big guys. It's not the sexy names,

941
00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:14,560
Speaker 1: but these guys are really fighting for their role, for

942
00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:17,719
Speaker 1: their touches this year. Not just making the roster, because

943
00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:20,080
Speaker 1: you can make a case for all three guys making

944
00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:22,680
Speaker 1: the roster, but their role and how often they're going

945
00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:24,400
Speaker 1: to see the ball. And I just think based on

946
00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:26,880
Speaker 1: what we've seen from D. D. Westbrook and the package

947
00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:28,560
Speaker 1: they've had for him on offense and the plays that

948
00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:32,239
Speaker 1: he's made, but he's got so much upside. The other

949
00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:34,239
Speaker 1: two guys, I think Green and Mickens are the two

950
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:36,120
Speaker 1: are going to fight it out. I'm anxious to see

951
00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:37,920
Speaker 1: if one can get a leg up tomorrow night. I

952
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:40,000
Speaker 1: go back and forth on this. The thing I keep

953
00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:42,640
Speaker 1: thinking about Jadeen though, is there's something when you watch

954
00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:47,200
Speaker 1: guys return punts. Some guys have the knack for turning

955
00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:50,000
Speaker 1: it up quickly, hitting the hole fast. That's what special

956
00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:53,040
Speaker 1: teams coaches love is a guy who goes upfield fast.

957
00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:54,960
Speaker 1: Get it. He's the best one on this team doing that.

958
00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:56,680
Speaker 1: I get it. But I'll come back to the fact

959
00:47:56,800 --> 00:48:00,480
Speaker 1: that the best, maybe the only pure slot inside receiver

960
00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:03,240
Speaker 1: that you have is Green. Green is showing the ability

961
00:48:03,239 --> 00:48:06,600
Speaker 1: to cover kicks, which Mickens does not do and Green

962
00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:10,560
Speaker 1: has had a long return and as he held up

963
00:48:10,600 --> 00:48:12,239
Speaker 1: he dropped the ball. I get it against the Saints,

964
00:48:12,280 --> 00:48:15,160
Speaker 1: but he's been very productive. I think Green does more

965
00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:18,520
Speaker 1: things for your team, more versatility than Mickens. I think

966
00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:22,080
Speaker 1: it's an uphill battle for mckens. More situations are dilemmas

967
00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:26,440
Speaker 1: made to it is. That's a good problem to have.

968
00:48:26,719 --> 00:48:29,719
Speaker 1: My thought before the game is the offense as a whole.

969
00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:32,440
Speaker 1: So when we watched the first preseason game, Blake Bortles

970
00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:35,120
Speaker 1: drove down the field grade opening drive. Last week, not

971
00:48:35,239 --> 00:48:37,120
Speaker 1: so much with the opening drive. I'd like to see

972
00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:39,719
Speaker 1: the offense come out and have another impactful opening drive

973
00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:42,160
Speaker 1: that made us go, wow, this is Blake's team. What

974
00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:46,080
Speaker 1: a great opening drive. So there you go, We're done.

975
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:50,920
Speaker 1: Are you happy? Ecstatic? I can tell all right, folks.

976
00:48:51,400 --> 00:48:55,200
Speaker 1: Game presented by Next Grilled Tomorrow night. I'm going to

977
00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:58,759
Speaker 1: start a burner account with you. It's gonna be fun too.

978
00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:02,120
Speaker 1: I'll do it for our show thanks to Max Huckman,
