Speaker 1: Air for events all week long. We'll hear from the

12
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:51,519
Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles insider Dave Spidero and see what the Eagles

13
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 1: are up to. They've lost some games recently. They're trying

14
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 1: to figure out what's going on in Philadelphia the three

15
00:00:57,280 --> 00:00:59,600
Speaker 1: and four record. We'll hear from Dave, and we'll go

16
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 1: around the Jaguars with senior writer John Ozan. No Josh

17
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:06,120
Speaker 1: Scobie this week. He is in route to London today

18
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,040
Speaker 1: and he'll be on the ground in the UK throughout

19
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 1: the week as well. Let's start off with the biggest

20
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,760
Speaker 1: news of the week the quarterback issue for the Jacksonville Jaguars.

21
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 1: Head coach Jagmaron yesterday afternoon released a statement saying that

22
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:21,400
Speaker 1: Blake Portles is the starting quarterback moving ahead this week

23
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:23,920
Speaker 1: in London. You see what he's done in the last

24
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,040
Speaker 1: three weeks, a lot of turnovers for this Jaguars offense.

25
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: But Maron said that Portles gives the Jaguars the best

26
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 1: chance to win, so he decided to go with Blake

27
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 1: Portles after talking with both quarterbacks yesterday afternoon. He made

28
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 1: that statement yesterday, So Blake Portles is destroyter this week

29
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:45,320
Speaker 1: against the Philadelphia Eagles. Cody Kessler entered the game last

30
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 1: week in the second drive of the second half and

31
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 1: came through with some solid numbers twenty one of thirty

32
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 1: passing in that game against the Houston Texans, a hundred

33
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 1: and fifty six yards, a touchdown, an interception. Seemed like

34
00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 1: the offense moved a little bit more when he was in.

35
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 1: But after some determinations, some film, and some deep thought,

36
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 1: head coach Doug Moron decided to go with Blake Bortles.

37
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 1: And you know, as the guys talked about last night

38
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,920
Speaker 1: on Jaguars happy hour, Pee Prisco and Tony Boselli. Could

39
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 1: it be a final move though it could change again,

40
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 1: But for now, Blake Bortles is the guy they feel

41
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 1: can lead this football team moving ahead. Now. The other

42
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 1: issue for the Jaguars is some turmoil in the locker room.

43
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,079
Speaker 1: We heard about it after the game, with that unique

44
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 1: dockway and Calias Campbell's names being reported as some of

45
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:34,040
Speaker 1: those in the midst there. Well, a player's only meeting

46
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:42,800
Speaker 1: yesterday was confirmed by head coach Doug Moron. Yeah, there was,

47
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 1: and and that's and that's not out of the norm.

48
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,520
Speaker 1: You know, it's you know, everyone trying to find what

49
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: their role is being together and pull it in the

50
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 1: same direction. You know. That's and that's what I expect

51
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,800
Speaker 1: from this team. You know, we've we've done that before.

52
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 1: You know, there's a lot of frustration and in the

53
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 1: fast you can get everyone back on us same page,

54
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 1: especially with a day off tomorrow for the players. I

55
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 1: want to get everyone in the same mindset and the

56
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 1: same mind you know mind frame. That was my goal

57
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 1: today if when we come back and go and now

58
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:10,639
Speaker 1: we as coaches, we've got to get our butts to

59
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 1: work and get our guys in the best situation. Another

60
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,920
Speaker 1: question for the head coach was how much does the

61
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 1: head coach get involved in locker room turmoil? He was

62
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 1: his answer yesterday, I think a lot of it has

63
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 1: to be you know, here is the lead on it,

64
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 1: and then it has to be a lot of communication

65
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,560
Speaker 1: with that to get everyone unified, you know, to be

66
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 1: um pulling in the same direction. That's that's really the goal.

67
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 1: I mean, you can't um have little groups or a

68
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:37,920
Speaker 1: little indecision of of what's the right way or the

69
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 1: proper way. You have to get everyone in in the

70
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 1: same boat. You know, we've done this to ourselves and

71
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 1: the only people are gonna be able to dig us

72
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 1: out of it is ourselves. But we all have to

73
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 1: have the same vision of how to do it. And

74
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 1: my thing to the team was, you know, we can

75
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 1: go in all these different directions, but if these two

76
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 1: things do not change, those directions aren't gonna matter. You

77
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 1: have it. Doug Marone yesterday afternoon. The bottom line is

78
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 1: when players only meetings happen things aren't going well. They

79
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 1: don't happen when your team is seven and oh this

80
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 1: team is far from that. They're three and four they've

81
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 1: dropped three in a row. You can have all the

82
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 1: players only meetings, coach to player meetings, anything you want.

83
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 1: But the game is one thirty London time on Sunday,

84
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 1: nine thirty a m. Eastern time, and we'll really find

85
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:28,159
Speaker 1: out then how the Jaguars respond to all this over

86
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:32,679
Speaker 1: the last week or three in this locker room. Coming

87
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 1: up this week, of course, a game in London against

88
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,480
Speaker 1: those Philadelphia Eagles. Let's go to the United Kingdom now

89
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,119
Speaker 1: on the ground. Pride of the Jaguars running back Fred

90
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:45,039
Speaker 1: Taylor joins us from London. How you doing, Fred? What's

91
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 1: up JP? I always wanted to say, cheers, mate, We

92
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:52,839
Speaker 1: do it every year. Thanks for coming on Live with

93
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 1: us today. Where are you right now? You know, I

94
00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 1: just got back in a lobby and if hell headquarters,

95
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 1: hotel and uh. I can tell you this much. The

96
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,920
Speaker 1: Philly fans, they're out in drove. I was so shocked

97
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,839
Speaker 1: to see so many fans get off the plane or

98
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 1: at the airport this morning. I mean they were deep,

99
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:18,279
Speaker 1: maybe about four or five different chartered groups. So they're

100
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,160
Speaker 1: they're ready. I hope we're ready. Well, it's their first

101
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: ever trip to London as an organization. The Eagles have

102
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 1: never been there, and of course they won the Super

103
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,480
Speaker 1: Bowl a year ago, so you'll have some of that

104
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:32,600
Speaker 1: instant fandom of folks maybe over there. And we've seen

105
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 1: that before with the Jags go every year, but last

106
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 1: year there were a lot of Ravens fans too. Brett, Yeah,

107
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 1: that's that's true. And again the Jaguars have done it

108
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 1: multiple years in a row, and uh, you know, it's

109
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,680
Speaker 1: it's uh, you know, it's a credit to the NFL.

110
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 1: One we're still believing in this thing. Even the local

111
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:57,040
Speaker 1: fan base, not to mention the fans that are die

112
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,840
Speaker 1: hard and uh, you know, finding a way to make

113
00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 1: it to support their team, but just the local fan

114
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 1: base that they've created from all the different regions over

115
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 1: here in Europe. And when you see people from Scotland,

116
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:13,600
Speaker 1: from Berlin, they're from all over the place coming here

117
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:17,120
Speaker 1: to support the NFL and I think that's great and uh,

118
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,920
Speaker 1: but more importantly, for years they've always supported the underdog,

119
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:25,920
Speaker 1: which is unfortunately been the Jaguars, and I'm pretty sure

120
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,800
Speaker 1: the expectations were high, uh, and there's still a lot

121
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:32,840
Speaker 1: high for the fans here that route on the Jaguars.

122
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 1: So I'm pretty sure they're ready and excited to uh

123
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 1: come out and see the team play and get back

124
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 1: on track. Fred. This was supposed to be the biggest

125
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:46,279
Speaker 1: build game in London history. The They've never had a

126
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 1: game with both teams holding winning records, and this was

127
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,360
Speaker 1: supposed to be the one. The Eagles the defending champions,

128
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:55,359
Speaker 1: the Jaguars the team that could have been in the

129
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,919
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. It was five minutes away from it. But

130
00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,600
Speaker 1: both teams are three and four and that they've done

131
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:02,839
Speaker 1: in different ways, of course, but this is not what

132
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:07,239
Speaker 1: they expected when they put this together. You know, it's

133
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 1: not and uh, you know again I can say, welcome

134
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:13,360
Speaker 1: to the NFL. Every year is a different year. You know,

135
00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 1: this is what you're gonna get no matter what. Uh.

136
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,960
Speaker 1: Some teams that do stand out, but again it's it

137
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 1: is the NFL, and things changed rapidly and unfortunately for us,

138
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 1: you know, the injury bugs sort of caught up with

139
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 1: us a little bit. But it's still earlier in the

140
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 1: season and hopefully things can change around. But yeah, after

141
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 1: the uh, I guess I could say more than anything else,

142
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 1: I wanted the Jaguards to make the Super Bowl. After

143
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,760
Speaker 1: finding out Filly made it, you know, and they have

144
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 1: that have that uh that Super Bowl rematch abroad. I

145
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: always thought that would have been something, you know, nice.

146
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 1: It would have been great for the growth of the

147
00:07:55,040 --> 00:08:01,200
Speaker 1: game over here, having to uh Super Bowl or two

148
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 1: teams back competed in the superreboible to make here. But

149
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 1: that's that was last year. That didn't happen. We're here

150
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 1: this year for this. Hopefully it's a good matchup. Fred.

151
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 1: We'll get back to London in just a moment. I'm

152
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 1: gonna ask you your reaction to the news yesterday Doug

153
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 1: Marone saying Blake Bortles is going to start this game

154
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 1: in London and not Cody Kessler. I know we talked

155
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 1: a little in the post game about that they were

156
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 1: still up in the air. Was open competition, he said,

157
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,680
Speaker 1: But the statement yesterday came out and Blake Portles as

158
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 1: a starter. Yeah, and uh Doug did it with conviction,

159
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:40,320
Speaker 1: you know, he said last week the reason for him

160
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 1: making that move clearly, he said it was to try

161
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 1: and get a spark. And uh, you know, when you're

162
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:49,600
Speaker 1: a coaching you sure ship you do whatever you feel, yeah,

163
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:52,680
Speaker 1: necessary to get your team's attention, and that was a

164
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 1: move he made a week ago. I even said it

165
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 1: in the postseason game that, um, I was pretty confident

166
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,280
Speaker 1: that break would uh come out and start this game.

167
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 1: If I were the coach, I would have allowed him

168
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,839
Speaker 1: to come out and start this game. As as you

169
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 1: look at the first half. If it's a nightmare, if

170
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 1: we see the same things with the turnovers, whether it's

171
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 1: fumbles and interceptions, the lack of production by the offense,

172
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,120
Speaker 1: then you know I was going to have time to

173
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 1: consider doing the same thing I did a week ago,

174
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 1: and let's getting Cody an opportunity. Uh. If you go

175
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:30,600
Speaker 1: back a week uh, there are some things that Cody

176
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:35,200
Speaker 1: did that were pretty impressive. I don't think Houston changed

177
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 1: much in their their play calling. So I thought Cody

178
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 1: went out there with what he was able to do

179
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 1: at that point in time, and I thought he played well.

180
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 1: A friend of mine, I actually a form of player,

181
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 1: said hey, why don't they called plays like that for Blake? Like,

182
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 1: what do you mean? You know? He said, Well, Cody

183
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 1: came out was doing a lot of quick, quick hitches

184
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 1: and speed outs and slant. I was like, he's just

185
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,920
Speaker 1: getting the ball out quick, He's going into his progressions

186
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:02,960
Speaker 1: and he's getting it out. I don't think the play

187
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 1: calling has a whole lot to do with it. But

188
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:09,360
Speaker 1: then again, who knows. I'm not in their meeting, but

189
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,200
Speaker 1: that was just a question that was supposed to me.

190
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:15,320
Speaker 1: But either case, whoever the pub is JP, we gotta

191
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 1: get a win, man, That's all that matters. I don't

192
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,199
Speaker 1: care who's out there. I just want somebody to get

193
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,520
Speaker 1: out there, compete and give you the A team an

194
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:25,440
Speaker 1: opportunity to win. They've been outscored fifty seven nothing in

195
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,840
Speaker 1: the first half over the last three weeks. Why you

196
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 1: had it? Yeah, score some points, get them early in

197
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,199
Speaker 1: the game would be nice. Fred. What's the rest of

198
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 1: your schedule this week? What events do you have, what

271
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 1: ago previewing this Jaguars Eagles matchup on Sunday at Wembley Stadium.

272
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 1: Let's get the other perspective now, the Philadelphia Eagles of

273
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 1: the World Champions. Eagles insider Dave Spadero joins us over

274
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: the phone. Now, how are you, Dave? What's up? Well,

275
00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:02,040
Speaker 1: I mean route. Actually, I'm at the Newark Airport in

276
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,720
Speaker 1: New Jersey, getting ready to fly over and check out

277
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 1: the scene a couple of days early and to a

278
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 1: kind of two kind of Eagles contingent will be out

279
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:12,720
Speaker 1: there ahead of the game. Well, Fred Taylor was just

280
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 1: with us last segment. He said, they're Eagles fans everywhere. Yeah,

281
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 1: they really. I'll tell you, the demand for this game

282
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 1: is unreal. It's obviously our first trip over there, and

283
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:26,600
Speaker 1: the fans who waited a lifetime to win the Super

284
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:30,360
Speaker 1: Bowl have certainly celebrated in a big way. February fourth,

285
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:33,160
Speaker 1: and Um, you know, the season has been a difficult one,

286
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 1: but I think everybody still believes the Eagles are in

287
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 1: the game in the NFC East, and Sunday should be

288
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:43,160
Speaker 1: a very healthy group of Eagles fans supporting the team. Dave,

289
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 1: I know you've been around there really your whole life.

290
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:48,440
Speaker 1: You've been an Eagles fan forever. How's the ring fit?

291
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:52,080
Speaker 1: The ring fits beautifully, But you know it's interesting once

292
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:54,240
Speaker 1: you get into the season, you're like, who cares about

293
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:56,840
Speaker 1: the ring? And everything is focused on now? But it

294
00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 1: is very beautiful. And if the life change you experience

295
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,600
Speaker 1: has been feeling and really a dream come true, I

296
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:07,520
Speaker 1: mean it's just been amazing. The parade, the ring ceremony,

297
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 1: all the city of Philadelphia, which has a kind of

298
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 1: a nasty tenor to it, a passionate nasty tenor to it.

299
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,320
Speaker 1: A lot of that nastiness has gone away, although after

300
00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 1: losing a seventeen point lead on Sunday to the Panthers,

301
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 1: a lot of that rancor came back. I would say

302
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 1: the honeymoon is long gone now after the Super Bowl win,

303
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 1: it seems like two different ways for these two different teams.

304
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 1: Here the Jags can't get started in games and the

305
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:35,480
Speaker 1: Eagles can't finish games, and something's got to give. This Sunday,

306
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 1: it's it's interesting as seventeen to three lead in Tennessee evaporated,

307
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 1: a seventeen and nothing lead against Carolina went by the wayside.

308
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 1: But truly it's been more than that. It's been a

309
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 1: team that has put together one really convincing sixteen minute game,

310
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 1: and that was a week ago Thursday against the New

311
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 1: York Giants, and that was the game that everybody thought, Okay,

312
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:59,000
Speaker 1: now the Eagles are back, the hangovers over, the team

313
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 1: is back on track to focuses there and then the

314
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,919
Speaker 1: Eagles for three quarters looked great against the Carolina Panthers,

315
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:08,760
Speaker 1: everything fell apart. So it's just been it's been as

316
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:12,080
Speaker 1: it's really a mirror image of probably probably stopping technical.

317
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 1: Its an incredibly inconsistent team. Now this team, the games

318
00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 1: that they've lost have been very close games, but still

319
00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:21,240
Speaker 1: they just last year you got used to the Eagles

320
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 1: finishing winning those close games, showing their dominance when they

321
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:28,200
Speaker 1: had opportunities to do so this year they just haven't

322
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:31,959
Speaker 1: done it. Dave Spadero with US the Eagles Insider Philadelphia

323
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:35,240
Speaker 1: Eagles dot Com. So to that fourth quarter last week,

324
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:38,000
Speaker 1: I mean seventeen nothing Leads in the fourth quarter just

325
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:40,800
Speaker 1: don't evaporate in the NFL that often, they really don't.

326
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:43,800
Speaker 1: What did the heck happened? What happened to the Eagles

327
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:45,920
Speaker 1: last everything that you can imagine that the Panthers came

328
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 1: down three straight touchdown drives, they converted a two point conversion.

329
00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:51,960
Speaker 1: Cam Newton got hot, Eagles put a lot of pressure

330
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 1: on him with the four man rush, and he still

331
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 1: stepped up and made plays. The Eagles couldn't get off

332
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,000
Speaker 1: the field on a fourth and ten, similar to what

333
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 1: happened in Tennessee, and we ti when they couldn't get

334
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,360
Speaker 1: off the skill in the fourth and fifteen. The offense,

335
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 1: which has been really efficient, good mix on the ground,

336
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,040
Speaker 1: good mixed in the air, dominating with al Sean Jeffrey

337
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:11,160
Speaker 1: on the outside, tight ends dock Hurst on the inside,

338
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:16,000
Speaker 1: suddenly couldn't sustain drives. And you find that when momentum

339
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 1: changes in the NFL really snowball and that's what happened

340
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 1: to the Eagles, which was stunning at home against the

341
00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,760
Speaker 1: Panthers team that looked to beat Now. One thing the

342
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:27,200
Speaker 1: Eagles are learning is that when you are the Super

343
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 1: Bowl champion, everybody gives you their best. Nobody's taking any

344
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,120
Speaker 1: plays off. They're gonna keep coming at you, keep coming

345
00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:37,160
Speaker 1: at you, keep coming at you. And that's what happened

346
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:39,040
Speaker 1: in Tennessee. And that's what happened on Sunday. It was

347
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:44,640
Speaker 1: shocking and really disappointing. And you know, you'll we'll see

348
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,840
Speaker 1: if the Eagles have that. Everyone's waiting for the urgency,

349
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,280
Speaker 1: the wake up call. I thought they played hard, I

350
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,800
Speaker 1: thought they played urgent football. They just had it all

351
00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 1: fall apart in fifteen minutes. It was stunning. Dave Spinnaro

352
00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:00,600
Speaker 1: with US from Philadelphia Eagles dot Com. Carson went se

353
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:05,399
Speaker 1: passing this year, ten touchdowns, an interception. You know, people

354
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 1: I think tend to forget. He wasn't on the field

355
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,400
Speaker 1: a lot last year, right towards the end of that run.

356
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:12,600
Speaker 1: And he's still a very young quarterback in this league,

357
00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 1: and there's moments where he's gonna make a young quarterback mistake. Yeah,

358
00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 1: and Neil was interesting last week was despite all the

359
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,719
Speaker 1: challenges that the Eagles had losing the seventeen pointly, they

360
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,200
Speaker 1: were still sitting there first intent at the Carolina's point

361
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 1: two yard line, plenty of time left, two time outs.

362
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,359
Speaker 1: I think Carson just tried to do too much in

363
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,879
Speaker 1: that situation rather than take a check down here and

364
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:39,760
Speaker 1: open receiver. They're keeping Jane moving work the ball into

365
00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 1: the end zone rather than trying to go for it

366
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 1: on a couple of throws that he had late in

367
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:50,680
Speaker 1: that game. But he's a superstar talent who is as intense, determined, intelligent,

368
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:54,640
Speaker 1: physically talented, mentally gifted as any quarterback I've ever seen,

369
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:56,760
Speaker 1: and in his day and age in the NFL with

370
00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:00,240
Speaker 1: Jared Goff, the Patrick Mahomes and some of the old

371
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:03,560
Speaker 1: guard Drew Brees and Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers still

372
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:06,240
Speaker 1: doing it, I think people are overlooking Carson a bit,

373
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:09,399
Speaker 1: and understandably so. The Eagles offense has not put it

374
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 1: together this year, but I can tell you he'll be

375
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:13,359
Speaker 1: a handful. It's gonna be a really great match up

376
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,959
Speaker 1: the way that Jaguars, despite the struggles, how good they

377
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:20,120
Speaker 1: are against the past, because the Eagles are very much

378
00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 1: leaning in the past department. They are past heavy and

379
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:26,760
Speaker 1: the teams that statistically any way have had success running

380
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 1: against Jaguars, and the Eagles have not put together a

381
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:32,760
Speaker 1: sustained run attack and it's certainly been challenged with the

382
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,680
Speaker 1: loft gay guy. So something has to give on Sunday.

383
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:37,640
Speaker 1: And for the Eagles, you know, they've got to get

384
00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:40,320
Speaker 1: out of this doldroom of averaging twenty two points the game,

385
00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:45,159
Speaker 1: I mean one game. It's really hard to win in

386
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,440
Speaker 1: the NFL these days because everybody's scoring so many points

387
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,160
Speaker 1: and they're putting a lot of pressure on the Eagles defense.

388
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,399
Speaker 1: Day Spedero with US you mentioned J J. I, the

389
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 1: A C. L. T. Harry, he's done for the year.

390
00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:59,280
Speaker 1: You know, it seemed last week you're trying to run

391
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,800
Speaker 1: a four minute offense. Maybe, but they didn't run the

392
00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 1: ball on the floor. Met an offense you can ask

393
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:05,920
Speaker 1: you play you know, Doug Peterson had some comments to

394
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,440
Speaker 1: the media about play calling and decisions and all that. Well,

395
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,760
Speaker 1: you don't have a running back like that, It's hard

396
00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:12,520
Speaker 1: to run that kind of offense. How big of a

397
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:14,920
Speaker 1: loss will a g i AB down the stretch here? Yeah,

398
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:18,119
Speaker 1: significant loss and that that's all the speculations Philadelphia has

399
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:21,600
Speaker 1: been how are the Eagles gonna get a top notch

400
00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 1: running back? See how he rose in the GM has

401
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:26,399
Speaker 1: set up this level of expectation. He's a wheeler and

402
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:28,520
Speaker 1: dealer and he makes things happen. And he got a

403
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:30,879
Speaker 1: gi E last year at the trade deadline, and a

404
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 1: Giant added explosiveness to the run game, something that really needed.

405
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 1: They had the hammer with like Garrett Blunt, and they

406
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 1: mixed in Darrence Rolls early in the season and then

407
00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:41,919
Speaker 1: Corey Clement came on and got some good carriage for them.

408
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,960
Speaker 1: But they don't have an explosive element this year. Another

409
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 1: thing they do offensively is the RPO, the run pass option,

410
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 1: which works well for the Eagles last year. Well, the

411
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:52,879
Speaker 1: quarterback has the r p O, he has the option,

412
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:55,920
Speaker 1: so look at it's natural that a quarterback would Dave.

413
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,119
Speaker 1: If I have an option, I'm going to put the

414
00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 1: ball in my hands and make things happen. So in

415
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 1: defense of Doug Peterson, some of those play calls for

416
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:07,440
Speaker 1: r p os that could have been run if Carson

417
00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 1: liked the look that he saw. But this team, look,

418
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:14,760
Speaker 1: they are seeing a lot of boxes, back boxes, they're

419
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:18,440
Speaker 1: seeing single coverage in the passing game. Other than al Shan,

420
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:22,200
Speaker 1: Jeffrey and Ert who are too formidable weapons, they really

421
00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:25,000
Speaker 1: haven't had a lot going in the past game. The

422
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 1: explosiveness not there. It's been degles that there weren't really

423
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:31,680
Speaker 1: worked hard to get points on the board, long drive,

424
00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:35,320
Speaker 1: lots of plays, time of possession for sure, but that

425
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 1: you need some chunk plays, you need some easy scores,

426
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,600
Speaker 1: you need some big plays to change the dynamic on defense,

427
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,760
Speaker 1: and needles just not having that element in the offense

428
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,200
Speaker 1: through seven games. You mentioned the rf os. I think

429
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:50,480
Speaker 1: everybody outside of Foxborough has something like that right now. NFL, well, yeah,

430
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:52,240
Speaker 1: that do what you know. He was actually introduced kind

431
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:54,800
Speaker 1: of by Tip Kelly the one decent thing he did

432
00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 1: in Philadelphia, and um and and and Doug took it

433
00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:00,840
Speaker 1: to a new level last year and look at it

434
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:03,280
Speaker 1: helped them win a Super Bowl. So the things that

435
00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 1: work last year, as we know, in the NFL, you

436
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,920
Speaker 1: spend an entire off he's studying that, figuring out how

437
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 1: to stop it. And the Eagles they traded Torry Smith

438
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:13,280
Speaker 1: wide receiver to Caroline in the off season. They haven't

439
00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:16,840
Speaker 1: replaced that production. They thought Mike Wallace would be that speed,

440
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 1: that vertical threat. He's hurt, um guy, He's hurt. They've

441
00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 1: had injuries along the offensive line. It's just been really

442
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 1: Darren's roles has only played one game. He's got a

443
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:28,680
Speaker 1: hamstring injury. He'll be out again this week, I expect,

444
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 1: And so it's been very difficult for the Eagles to

445
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 1: get anything going consistently offensively. A couple more thoughts with

446
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:37,720
Speaker 1: it here, Dave. Defensively, Fletcher Cox has put up a

447
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:40,200
Speaker 1: few sacks this year. How big of a forces have

448
00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:42,120
Speaker 1: you been up front for you guys on defense? Yeah,

449
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:44,240
Speaker 1: he'll be. He's the look I tell you this. The

450
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:48,359
Speaker 1: Jaguars are accounting for him on every play. He rarely

451
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,119
Speaker 1: is singled up. He's doubles and tripled. That opens up

452
00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:55,240
Speaker 1: opportunities for others. The Eagles have a very good path rush,

453
00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 1: and they need it because the back end is not seller.

454
00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:01,320
Speaker 1: They have struggled at cornerback. They lost their starting safety

455
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:05,680
Speaker 1: Rodney McCloud. They have they moved their rookie nickel cornerback

456
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 1: of Ante Mattock from there to the deep safety position.

457
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:13,360
Speaker 1: And it was a very soft coverage last week against Carolina.

458
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:16,040
Speaker 1: Late and Carolina really exploited that they had a lot

459
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 1: of mistackles. But it begins with Fletcher, and it Fletcher dominates,

460
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:23,280
Speaker 1: then they're gonna do really well. Fletcher was quiet against Carolina,

461
00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 1: particularly late, and you really really notice the difference. Dave

462
00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:30,320
Speaker 1: Spodero with us first trip for the Eagles to London,

463
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:32,720
Speaker 1: when's the team going over? You're going separate? I guess, yeah.

464
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 1: So we go over early because of all the fan

465
00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,160
Speaker 1: activities and I am see all the things to get

466
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,880
Speaker 1: everybody fired up, and we have some alumni going over,

467
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:43,040
Speaker 1: and the team will fly out on Thursday, arrived Friday

468
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:47,160
Speaker 1: morning and you know, hopefully handle the distractions and the

469
00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 1: the get lag and the the new environment and and

470
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:53,479
Speaker 1: have a really strong game. On studay, it looked just

471
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,159
Speaker 1: like just like you guys, just like Jackville. It's a

472
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,359
Speaker 1: must win. Going to three and five would be very

473
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:01,440
Speaker 1: difficult to overcome with a tough second half schedule. But

474
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 1: so the team thinks it's prepared. They've they really planned

475
00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:06,919
Speaker 1: for it, and they'll get there on Friday morning and

520
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:48,720
Speaker 1: full interview on Sunday in the Public's Tailgate Show from

521
00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 1: Wembley Stadium. Here's a preview today after a couple of

522
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:55,239
Speaker 1: games already in the series, three consecutive games in the

523
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,639
Speaker 1: London marketplace that how much of a challenge is that

524
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:00,840
Speaker 1: for the folks on the ground in the UK? Yeah,

525
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:05,920
Speaker 1: definitely from a from an executional standpoint sort of two things. One,

526
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:10,199
Speaker 1: we're in the same stadium for all three games, so

527
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:15,600
Speaker 1: making sure that the field, particularly the pitches is ready

528
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,040
Speaker 1: and and sort of in good shape. So that's been

529
00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:21,520
Speaker 1: a big focus. And then obviously you know a lot

530
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:24,359
Speaker 1: of a lot of tickets to sell three games across

531
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:29,720
Speaker 1: three weekends. That two tickets, but all three games sold out.

532
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:32,959
Speaker 1: Very excited with that, and a lot of those tickets

533
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:36,800
Speaker 1: are what you call season tickets. People buying all three games.

534
00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:40,560
Speaker 1: How much of a breakdown of fan attending the game there?

535
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,479
Speaker 1: Where are they from? Are they mostly UK? Are they

536
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:46,240
Speaker 1: mixed from Europe? Everywhere else. What kind of numbers that

537
00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:49,240
Speaker 1: we do a lot of work on sort of collecting

538
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:53,520
Speaker 1: fan data, and our data is suggests that about ninety

539
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 1: of the fans are UK fans, and probably two thirds

540
00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:00,440
Speaker 1: of them from within a couple of hours of London,

541
00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:03,680
Speaker 1: and then the balance of the fans tend to be

542
00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:07,440
Speaker 1: about four or five percent from the rest of Europe,

543
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 1: notably Germany, uh and Scandinavia, and then the US fans

544
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,480
Speaker 1: traveling over. So this last weekend we had a lot

545
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 1: of Seahawks fans were obviously expecting a lot of fans

546
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,560
Speaker 1: to travel over for the Eagles game. That's a that's

547
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 1: a sort of easy trip from from there, and so

548
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 1: that's the balance is sort of American traveling. Mark Wahler, Well,

549
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 1: this is the NFL VP of International and Events. You've

550
00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:40,959
Speaker 1: said in the past that there was the date the

551
00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:44,400
Speaker 1: year that you wanted to be ready for a franchise

552
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:47,720
Speaker 1: in the UK that is still a few years away,

553
00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:51,120
Speaker 1: but you've said recently the marketplace is ready. Why is that?

554
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,440
Speaker 1: I think we feel now that the work that we've

555
00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:59,720
Speaker 1: done on the stadium side of having Wembley, twicken and

556
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,680
Speaker 1: and then Tottenham coming on stream next year. We feel

557
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 1: very good that we could schedule the games, and from

558
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:11,320
Speaker 1: a fan growth perspective, you know, we continue to see

559
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:15,640
Speaker 1: incredible demand and great growth in the fandom. So it

560
00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 1: just feels to us that the yeah, the core requirements

561
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:23,640
Speaker 1: for any franchise in any market is, yeah, you obviously

562
00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 1: need to have enough fans for it to be sustainable

563
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 1: and places to play, and we feel now that we're

564
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 1: in a place where we can deliver that as when

565
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:36,120
Speaker 1: the ownership requires it, there's more quality. NFL VP of

574
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:09,480
Speaker 1: live Okay, thanks for coming in seeing that problem. I

575
00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:11,680
Speaker 1: was actually just trying to move out of the way

576
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 1: and I moved in the way, which is you know,

577
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,560
Speaker 1: kind of story of my life. No, Josh Scobie this week.

578
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:22,520
Speaker 1: He's on a plane in London. Kicker for the kicker. Yeah,

579
00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,040
Speaker 1: he usually he's right there. You're they're usually there. He works.

580
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,480
Speaker 1: Are we pay him to come on? I believe that's

581
00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:31,760
Speaker 1: money well spent. It is, so we're without him this week.

582
00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:36,240
Speaker 1: But that said, in uh and in Josh Scoby fashion,

583
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:39,000
Speaker 1: we always have the specialist break to do. So we're

584
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:40,719
Speaker 1: gonna do that right now and take a look at

585
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:44,480
Speaker 1: the specialist for the Philadelphia Eagles the opponent this week.

586
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:47,720
Speaker 1: The Eagles have Jake Elliott, the second year kicker out

587
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:51,360
Speaker 1: of Memphis eleven and fifteen field goals along and forty

588
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:55,280
Speaker 1: six perfect and extra points. Cameron Johnston is the punter

589
00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:59,480
Speaker 1: his first year college out of Ohio State. There a

590
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:03,400
Speaker 1: great average nearly forty four yards per pump net and

591
00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:07,760
Speaker 1: uh Rick Lovado, an old Dominion long snapper secret weapon

592
00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 1: for the Eagles heading to London this week. I know

593
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,080
Speaker 1: that's your favorite. We wanted to make sure we got

594
00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:14,360
Speaker 1: it in this week. John So, I wasn't paying attention.

595
00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:18,360
Speaker 1: I was looking for something to gouge. We don't have

596
00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:21,680
Speaker 1: anything back, you know. Yeah, it looked great. Perfect. We'll

597
00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:25,440
Speaker 1: see on Sunday when the Jackson. The he's in the air,

598
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:30,360
Speaker 1: he can't call in. I don't break that down. Think, Yeah,

599
00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:32,160
Speaker 1: Well to get him on later in the week when

600
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 1: we get on the ground there it's it's a blow.

601
00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:35,440
Speaker 1: It'll probably be like the difference in the game to

602
00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,600
Speaker 1: I'm talking it down. It will probably be like important

603
00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:43,440
Speaker 1: kick of all time. Okay. Biggest news this week, of course,

604
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 1: the quarterback decision has been made by head coach Doug Moron,

605
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:49,960
Speaker 1: and he announced it yesterday in a statement that Blake

606
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:54,280
Speaker 1: Bortles will start this week against the Philadelphia Eagles. Uh,

607
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:56,840
Speaker 1: you know that, you can go. Fans are going both

608
00:32:56,920 --> 00:33:01,120
Speaker 1: ways on this obviously, Um, is this a permanent deal?

609
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:04,800
Speaker 1: Can this change again? Well? Yeah, if if you can

610
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:08,320
Speaker 1: change it once, certainly, no better than Blake has played

611
00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:10,680
Speaker 1: the last three weeks, and no better than the offense

612
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:13,920
Speaker 1: is functioning around him, you can certainly change it. And

613
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 1: I think that's important to note because there's coaches seem

614
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:21,400
Speaker 1: to have different philosophies on this. UM. I thought the

615
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:24,240
Speaker 1: coaches who say, you know, you support your guy at

616
00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:28,440
Speaker 1: quarterback until he's not your quarterback and then once you

617
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:30,880
Speaker 1: move on, you can't go back. There are people, I

618
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:34,920
Speaker 1: mean their NFL people and coaches who firmly believe that

619
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:39,400
Speaker 1: Doug it doesn't make it right or wrong, but that's

620
00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:43,240
Speaker 1: the way they believe. Doug clearly doesn't subscribe to that.

621
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:48,080
Speaker 1: He threw it open to a few days of competition

622
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:53,080
Speaker 1: last preseason. He pulled Blake the other day and has

623
00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:55,760
Speaker 1: no problem going back to him. I think a big

624
00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 1: reason he felt confident with it was because Blake handled

625
00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 1: it last year, was able to whatever the verb is,

626
00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:09,480
Speaker 1: regain maintain the respective people in the locker room, and

627
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:13,600
Speaker 1: that didn't affect the dynamic of the team that was

628
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:16,040
Speaker 1: still comments in him. So I think Doug has the

629
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:19,520
Speaker 1: frame of reference for making that work. Is it? Is

630
00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:23,120
Speaker 1: it permanent? You know? I um, it's not ideal to

631
00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:25,960
Speaker 1: have uncertainty there. But as as I've said a couple

632
00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:28,359
Speaker 1: of times during this losing streak, ideal left the station

633
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:30,440
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks back. We're not ideal. Yeah, this

634
00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:31,880
Speaker 1: is something where they've got to deal with it and

635
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:34,400
Speaker 1: figure it out. I think it would have been hard

636
00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:39,080
Speaker 1: to go to Cody Kessler for a couple of games

637
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 1: and then have Blake come back in as a result

638
00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 1: of Kestler playing poorly. I think then all of a sudden,

639
00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:49,400
Speaker 1: you're going back and forth. This move makes sense for

640
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:54,920
Speaker 1: a lot of reasons than mobility. Uh yeah, I mean

641
00:34:54,960 --> 00:35:00,600
Speaker 1: just all those things. Um So I I was fifty,

642
00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:04,399
Speaker 1: I wrote, as I'm sure you read because you loved

643
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:07,520
Speaker 1: to read everything, right, Um I wrote that I thought

644
00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:10,680
Speaker 1: it would be blake. That was the good feeling I

645
00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:12,200
Speaker 1: had a mate. I wavered a little bit when Doug

646
00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:15,000
Speaker 1: talk yesterday. We did last night on the show too,

647
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 1: because it made it seem like, see how guys reacted

648
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,279
Speaker 1: around and while on the field they moved the ball

649
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:24,600
Speaker 1: and off. Yeah, and uh but that can be a

650
00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:29,560
Speaker 1: tough gauge, the getting excited about how a backup quarterback

651
00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:35,719
Speaker 1: plays with a twenty point deficit against a team that

652
00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:38,839
Speaker 1: you know, the Texans defense at that point when Kesler

653
00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:41,080
Speaker 1: was playing, had to believe all we gotta do is

654
00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:43,000
Speaker 1: keep stuff in front of us, make it hard for

655
00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:46,399
Speaker 1: him to score, and we're gonna win this game. There

656
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:50,400
Speaker 1: wasn't a whole lot of a feeling of threat and

657
00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:58,000
Speaker 1: no game planning against Kessler. So if you and not

658
00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:02,280
Speaker 1: to discount what he did, but it's difficult to take

659
00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:04,399
Speaker 1: that as a gauge or how it will be going

660
00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:07,160
Speaker 1: forward to consider the context of the game. Yeah, So

661
00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:13,080
Speaker 1: for all those reasons, I just I was the needle

662
00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:16,520
Speaker 1: was a little toward Blake. But as I said, often

663
00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:20,400
Speaker 1: when you're even talking about it, it means there's no

664
00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:23,400
Speaker 1: good solution. It's never a good topic to have a

665
00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:26,839
Speaker 1: quarterback issue, especially a week seven of a season and

666
00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:30,640
Speaker 1: a season that can still be salvaged. But they got

667
00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:32,200
Speaker 1: a lot of work to do. But we'll say this,

668
00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:38,520
Speaker 1: if if it was any other quarterback involved with this,

669
00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:42,120
Speaker 1: I would think, boy, I wonder if this guy goes

670
00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:45,640
Speaker 1: in the tank with a lot of quarterbacks, I would

671
00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:50,879
Speaker 1: be absolutely stunned. If they put together six games out

672
00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:53,319
Speaker 1: of the last nine where they were just playing well

673
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:58,320
Speaker 1: everybody around would it surprise you if Blake did that.

674
00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:01,560
Speaker 1: He's done it before, I mean, and and anybody listens

675
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:03,960
Speaker 1: gonna say, well, of course, it's surprises you, because he's terrible.

676
00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:05,799
Speaker 1: He's done this. He's done this as mean, if you

677
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:09,279
Speaker 1: look at the last season, Um, if you look at

678
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:11,040
Speaker 1: some of the things that he's been able to do

679
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:15,520
Speaker 1: coming back from a situation like this, Um, it's not

680
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:18,759
Speaker 1: unheard of that he would come out and have some

681
00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:20,680
Speaker 1: lights out games the rest of the way because he's

682
00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:24,560
Speaker 1: done it before. A new face behind him in the backfield.

683
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:29,960
Speaker 1: Carlos High joined the Jacksonville Jaguars, traded here on Friday.

684
00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:33,520
Speaker 1: Was close maybe the playing on Sunday. He spoke with

685
00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:36,800
Speaker 1: the media in the locker room on Monday home. I

686
00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:38,920
Speaker 1: had just got home. Actually, I was saying out with

687
00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:42,640
Speaker 1: my son and I got a call from Dorsey telling

688
00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:47,839
Speaker 1: me I just got traded to Jacksonville. I was shocked. Um,

689
00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:50,000
Speaker 1: but I mean, honestly, I do you know what the field,

690
00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:52,839
Speaker 1: but I was definitely shocked. Then I had to come

691
00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:55,080
Speaker 1: on the flight that night and come here. So it

692
00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:58,719
Speaker 1: happened so quick. You know, there were reports that you

693
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:02,279
Speaker 1: were about to be active for the game yesterday. How

694
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:04,880
Speaker 1: mean how close were you? Was it just a playbook

695
00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:09,319
Speaker 1: situation or could you have gone? And what was that situation? Um? Yeah,

696
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:10,959
Speaker 1: that was like one of the first questions I asked

697
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:13,640
Speaker 1: my guy, or if can I play Sunday? Um. I

698
00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:15,439
Speaker 1: had looked over the plays and some of the round

699
00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:18,440
Speaker 1: plays were familiar what I was doing over in Cleveland.

700
00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:20,560
Speaker 1: So I was like, you know, I think I can

701
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:22,719
Speaker 1: definitely get in the game and run these plays. I

702
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:25,319
Speaker 1: don't think it would be that hard. But you know,

703
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:28,279
Speaker 1: they didn't let me. But I was definitely pushing for it.

704
00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:31,000
Speaker 1: What they didn't happen, Carlos, this team wants to have

705
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:34,399
Speaker 1: an offensive identity, that physical running, that sort of thing

706
00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:37,359
Speaker 1: that fit what your game is, I mean what they want.

707
00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:41,880
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it was definitely you know, um me, you know,

708
00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:45,320
Speaker 1: I run angry downhill you know, smash my football. You

709
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:47,640
Speaker 1: know that's been my gamer since I started playing this game.

710
00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:50,680
Speaker 1: So I think I'll fit in perfect here. There's Carlos

711
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:52,879
Speaker 1: hide in the locker room on Monday there, and it's

712
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:56,560
Speaker 1: something they don't really have a guy who can be physical.

713
00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:58,960
Speaker 1: And somebody in the building the other day said he's

714
00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:01,919
Speaker 1: not gonna run over of guys like for not he's

715
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:04,960
Speaker 1: not gonna avoid guys like Gelden. He's kind of in between.

716
00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:07,600
Speaker 1: He's got a little bit of the in between skill set. Yeah,

717
00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:09,400
Speaker 1: when he said I run angry, I'm thinking, you know,

718
00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:12,840
Speaker 1: I'm always angry. Minds like a petty anger that doesn't

719
00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:15,960
Speaker 1: get very much done. Uh, what you went out of

720
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 1: this guy is if you've seen him playing. And I

721
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:22,359
Speaker 1: haven't watched the Browns much, but I watched the watch

722
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:26,359
Speaker 1: the opener and playing the Jets. Um, he's what they

723
00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:30,640
Speaker 1: need right now in terms of giving themselves a little

724
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:37,799
Speaker 1: bit of that offensive identity. Um. I've gotten some emails

725
00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:41,480
Speaker 1: with people asking how much of a difference can he make.

726
00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 1: I think some of that's getting clouded with the fact

727
00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:45,880
Speaker 1: that the Jay was brought in Jamal Charles, and at

728
00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:48,920
Speaker 1: least him so quickly. This is a much different acquisition

729
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:51,799
Speaker 1: than that. Jamal Charles was an eleven year guy who

730
00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:53,440
Speaker 1: you hoped you might get something out of was on

731
00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:56,680
Speaker 1: the street. Uh. Not to knock Jamal Charles, but at

732
00:39:56,719 --> 00:39:59,359
Speaker 1: that point in running back his career, I never really

733
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:01,680
Speaker 1: had any thought that he was gonna make a big impact.

734
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:04,440
Speaker 1: Carlos High. It is a guy who scored five touchdowns

735
00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:07,800
Speaker 1: this year. He plays the way you want him to play.

736
00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:09,759
Speaker 1: I don't want to put the pressure on him of

737
00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:13,239
Speaker 1: saying he's going to be a a Marcel Darius type

738
00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:16,799
Speaker 1: pick up, but it has that feel of a guy

739
00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:20,440
Speaker 1: that they really need. It's rare to make a trade

740
00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:22,959
Speaker 1: where you start looking at and saying, boy, this guy's

741
00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:24,680
Speaker 1: not bad, you know. I mean, other times you make

742
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:27,920
Speaker 1: a trade. Okay, well he does what you want him

743
00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:31,920
Speaker 1: to do. He runs angry he's got three or two

744
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:35,000
Speaker 1: yards rushing the season that he's up among the league leaders.

745
00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:38,319
Speaker 1: This has a chance to be a significant pickup, not

746
00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:41,520
Speaker 1: only this year, this week, but in the future. You know,

747
00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:45,400
Speaker 1: the way they want to play. Everybody was surprised they

748
00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:49,719
Speaker 1: didn't have a second banging running back. Um, I don't

749
00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:52,640
Speaker 1: know when Leonard's coming back. You know, I have no idea.

750
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:55,480
Speaker 1: I keep thinking after the bye, but I've seen nothing

751
00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:58,600
Speaker 1: to guarantee that. So this guy could be the back

752
00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:01,960
Speaker 1: for a while. And it's not like you're picking up

753
00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:04,879
Speaker 1: a backup from somebody. This guy's is a front line

754
00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:09,400
Speaker 1: NFL running back. Fifth year could be a major pickup.

755
00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:12,640
Speaker 1: And I don't want to say that it's going to

756
00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:15,919
Speaker 1: change the entire offense because there's too much else that's wrong,

757
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:20,719
Speaker 1: and one running back is not going to make Cam

758
00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:23,200
Speaker 1: Robinson's knee better. I'm not going to get Mark Keith

759
00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 1: Lee back in the fields, get us far and Jenkins

760
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:28,560
Speaker 1: back in the field. But it does give you the chance.

761
00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:31,640
Speaker 1: You hand theball t J. Yelton three or four times,

762
00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:34,479
Speaker 1: you gotta get out of game because he's not going

763
00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:37,200
Speaker 1: to run eight straight times and you needed for past

764
00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:39,520
Speaker 1: bro It's hard to just feed him the ball. Now

765
00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:41,680
Speaker 1: you've got two guys that you can do that with

766
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:44,560
Speaker 1: a chance to get back to some something close to

767
00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:47,759
Speaker 1: their identity. Toy was Sully last night on Happy Hour

768
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:50,920
Speaker 1: said that Carlos Hide is the best running back on

769
00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:55,640
Speaker 1: the roster right now, better than for that, better than Yelled,

770
00:41:56,719 --> 00:42:02,080
Speaker 1: better than Williams, because he's available, he's out there, and

771
00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:05,720
Speaker 1: he has the statistics in the average yards per Russian

772
00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:08,560
Speaker 1: everything to go with. And I get his point, and

773
00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:10,719
Speaker 1: I'm not going to disagree with that. I mean, Hid

774
00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:13,600
Speaker 1: and I think has more missability than for Net. Uh

775
00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:18,319
Speaker 1: a healthy Leonard for Net. It's hard to know what

776
00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:20,080
Speaker 1: that's gonna bring. I didn't I didn't think he was

777
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:22,239
Speaker 1: great last year. I thought he was really good last

778
00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:25,320
Speaker 1: year for last situations, but I didn't think he was elite.

779
00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:27,920
Speaker 1: I don't know they call his hides elite. UM for

780
00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:30,759
Speaker 1: Net still gotta prove a lot. Biggest thing. He's got

781
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:33,040
Speaker 1: to prove that he can stay healthy. I also don't

782
00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:36,360
Speaker 1: want to discount the identity that four Net broad and

783
00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:40,560
Speaker 1: all that. So he's obviously you want him to be

784
00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:46,560
Speaker 1: the guy. Uh, Yes, Hides better than Yelled in UM,

785
00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:51,320
Speaker 1: but let's not lose sight of how important t J

786
00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:54,320
Speaker 1: is and how well he's played, what he's played through

787
00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:57,840
Speaker 1: and done this. Yeah, I mean, considering all the circumstances around,

788
00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:03,239
Speaker 1: it's run Carlos high topic. But t J was a

789
00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:05,520
Speaker 1: guy who for the first three years had a couple

790
00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:08,880
Speaker 1: of flashes um and they liked him, like what he

791
00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:10,680
Speaker 1: could do, and he was good in past bro but

792
00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:14,719
Speaker 1: really hadn't uh sort of carried him and gotten him

793
00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:18,359
Speaker 1: through anything. He's played really well this year, really good

794
00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:22,560
Speaker 1: in past protection, and really good as a runner. He's

795
00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:26,920
Speaker 1: not the carry the offense in a in a violent

796
00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:31,360
Speaker 1: physical offense like they want to be, but he is fantastic.

797
00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:33,480
Speaker 1: If you've got a you've got a guy who can

798
00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:37,440
Speaker 1: do that. The way they originally planning these backs was

799
00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:41,240
Speaker 1: Corey Grant Leonard for NET and t J Yeldon within

800
00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:45,560
Speaker 1: that concept, I think if you had what you thought

801
00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:47,919
Speaker 1: Corey was gonna be, and you had what you thought

802
00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:49,279
Speaker 1: leon was gonna be at the beginning of the year,

803
00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:53,000
Speaker 1: you'd be looking at t J yelling and thinking, boy,

804
00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:55,640
Speaker 1: what a fantastic part of a group of three. He's

805
00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:58,839
Speaker 1: doing his jobs. He sure is, and now we'll see

806
00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:02,799
Speaker 1: what Carlos hide has for the Jacksonville Jaguars is coming Sunday.

807
00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:06,600
Speaker 1: We'll take a time out. We'll get into players only meetings.

808
00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:11,000
Speaker 1: It was one of those yesterday. We can get into

809

Speaker 1: ticket to Daily's Place dot com. Players only meetings Baseball

848
00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:44,000
Speaker 1: player a long time ago, when I was first kind

849
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:47,600
Speaker 1: of starting out, said when there's players only meetings, that

850
00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:50,760
Speaker 1: means you're not a very good team. And the Jags

851
00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:55,400
Speaker 1: are not a very good team right now. Yeah, and it's, uh,

852
00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:59,160
Speaker 1: they're fine. I mean it's it's it's fine to have him.

853
00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:08,120
Speaker 1: I think coaches smart coaches, which Doug is, except some

854
00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:13,799
Speaker 1: fine trust that the leaders on the team are are

855
00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:16,480
Speaker 1: coming from the right place, which generally speaking, I think

856
00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:20,920
Speaker 1: the guys who who who lead this team? Uh do

857
00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:27,439
Speaker 1: players only meetings for the right reasons? Um, I I'm

858
00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:33,759
Speaker 1: skeptical into how much impact they actually have. Uh. That's

859
00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:37,319
Speaker 1: why I say they're fine. You know, I've read and

860
00:47:37,480 --> 00:47:43,400
Speaker 1: heard a lot of stories about players only meetings. Um.

861
00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:47,759
Speaker 1: Sometimes you're sitting at a Super Bowl and players are

862
00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:50,120
Speaker 1: talking about a players only meeting in October to turn

863
00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:56,879
Speaker 1: things around. Oftentimes you're covering a four and twelve team

864
00:47:57,520 --> 00:47:59,279
Speaker 1: and you forget that there was a player's only meeting

865
00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:01,080
Speaker 1: because it was one of the eight of them. So

866
00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:04,799
Speaker 1: it on a serious note. It's good that they had it.

867
00:48:04,800 --> 00:48:08,160
Speaker 1: It's good that they care. Um, I'm sure the right

868
00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:12,880
Speaker 1: things were said in it, and it they understand what

869
00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:15,279
Speaker 1: a critical point it is and they want to get

870
00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:17,239
Speaker 1: it turned around, just like last week when they were

871
00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:21,080
Speaker 1: talking about we need to get reset. Um, it's not

872
00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:24,000
Speaker 1: ahead in the sand situation where they think everything's okay.

873
00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:28,480
Speaker 1: So more power to them, But I just don't put

874
00:48:28,520 --> 00:48:30,200
Speaker 1: a lot of stock in it. There was a time,

875
00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:33,480
Speaker 1: like back first covering the league, where it was sort of, oh,

876
00:48:33,560 --> 00:48:35,759
Speaker 1: players only must mean they do like the coach. They

877
00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:38,000
Speaker 1: don't with the coaches in there. You know, that's really

878
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:40,560
Speaker 1: not what it is. It's more of in this day

879
00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:44,040
Speaker 1: and age, especially players feeling like, look, we gotta take

880
00:48:44,080 --> 00:48:46,880
Speaker 1: this on ourselves. We've got to be the ones to

881
00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:50,920
Speaker 1: get this fixed. And uh, they're right, it's Tony like

882
00:48:51,280 --> 00:48:54,000
Speaker 1: referencing Tony you for some reason, but we just spoke

883
00:48:54,120 --> 00:48:56,919
Speaker 1: last night. I know it's a it's a flaw. Sorry. Um,

884
00:48:57,920 --> 00:49:00,640
Speaker 1: it's a players league when things are going well and

885
00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:02,239
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden it turns into something other

886
00:49:02,280 --> 00:49:04,400
Speaker 1: of the players league when things aren't going well sometimes,

887
00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:07,080
Speaker 1: but players gonna take that back, you know, it's always

888
00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:11,760
Speaker 1: coaching the NFL. Coaching is always a fun every Yeah,

889
00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:15,480
Speaker 1: but that's that's sometimes how it is. But the guys

890
00:49:15,520 --> 00:49:17,440
Speaker 1: still have the passion and the energy to try to

891
00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:20,040
Speaker 1: get things right here. Yeah, no question. And it's uh,

892
00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:23,319
Speaker 1: it's a tough, brutal time. It's a time, as we

893
00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:28,240
Speaker 1: saw on Sunday, when you go through three straight weeks

894
00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:31,040
Speaker 1: where the offense does not score in the first half

895
00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:36,600
Speaker 1: and the offense, by the way, is and it knows

896
00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:40,280
Speaker 1: everybody putting a tremendous strain on the defense. Actually actually

897
00:49:40,280 --> 00:49:42,439
Speaker 1: looked up a stat means I did some research today. JP.

898
00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:48,359
Speaker 1: Uh you know that I'm I'm cramping a little bit here,

899
00:49:48,440 --> 00:49:54,560
Speaker 1: so my fingers are cramping from google. UMT sacks last year? Yes, right,

900
00:49:55,360 --> 00:49:58,839
Speaker 1: I venture I guess is how many of those came

901
00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:04,560
Speaker 1: with the Jaguars leading I would say a good and

902
00:50:05,160 --> 00:50:09,600
Speaker 1: the huge sack games ten and ten Houston and the

903
00:50:09,640 --> 00:50:13,120
Speaker 1: opener and Andy all ten sacks. Both of those games

904
00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:18,160
Speaker 1: came when the Jaguars were ahead. Uh Now, the outlier

905
00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:21,640
Speaker 1: was last year they had three or four defensive touchdowns

906
00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:24,800
Speaker 1: that were with the game on the line, either trailing

907
00:50:25,600 --> 00:50:27,640
Speaker 1: or with a very close where it didn't feel like

908
00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:34,520
Speaker 1: avalanche mode. But for the most part, your leads leading

909
00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:38,560
Speaker 1: create your opportunities for defenses to create chaos, no matter

910
00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:41,560
Speaker 1: how good you are. So that's what's missing this year,

911
00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:48,640
Speaker 1: and that's what you wonder how they get back to that.

912
00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:53,920
Speaker 1: And I think that's where some of the dissension, frustration,

913
00:50:53,960 --> 00:50:56,680
Speaker 1: whatever it is comes. Defense knows it's got the talent

914
00:50:56,760 --> 00:50:59,200
Speaker 1: to do it. Not having a chance to get into

915
00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:02,120
Speaker 1: that mode, um, it makes it tough. It makes it

916
00:51:02,160 --> 00:51:05,200
Speaker 1: really tough. The Jags and the Eagles was supposed to

917
00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:09,960
Speaker 1: be the big Marquee International Series matchup ever, and it's big.

918
00:51:10,360 --> 00:51:13,240
Speaker 1: It's a big for a different reason. It's pie Prisco

919
00:51:13,320 --> 00:51:16,360
Speaker 1: called an elimination game of sorts, you know, three and

920
00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:19,040
Speaker 1: four record. Both teams need this game to kind of

921
00:51:19,040 --> 00:51:22,400
Speaker 1: really get things back on track here going into the season.

922
00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:24,160
Speaker 1: Of course, it was built as one of the biggest

923
00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:26,600
Speaker 1: games they've ever had in London or defending champs. That's

924
00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:29,920
Speaker 1: even the NFC Championship game, and it just quite hasn't

925
00:51:29,960 --> 00:51:32,560
Speaker 1: lived up to that advanced building. But it's still has

926
00:51:32,560 --> 00:51:34,320
Speaker 1: a chance to be a very good football game in

927
00:51:34,520 --> 00:51:38,400
Speaker 1: Whimbley on Sunday. I agree with Pete. It's an elimination game.

928
00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:41,759
Speaker 1: Uh intends if you lose at your three and five.

929
00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:47,560
Speaker 1: Here's the weird thing. They're both three and four and

930
00:51:47,760 --> 00:51:51,120
Speaker 1: fortunate enough to be in divisions where you feel like

931
00:51:51,200 --> 00:51:54,480
Speaker 1: nine wins might get it. So for the Jaguars, three

932
00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:56,319
Speaker 1: and five means you have to go six and two

933
00:51:56,360 --> 00:51:58,879
Speaker 1: to get to nine wins. That's a that's a big

934
00:51:58,920 --> 00:52:01,040
Speaker 1: lift the way the offense is playing right now. So yeah,

935
00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:05,680
Speaker 1: it's elimination. But they're both fortunate enough and you know

936
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:09,919
Speaker 1: the NFC East right now, the Skins are up four,

937
00:52:10,440 --> 00:52:12,759
Speaker 1: four and two. They don't feel like a team is

938
00:52:12,760 --> 00:52:14,520
Speaker 1: gonna get away from you. So for both teams it's

939
00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:17,960
Speaker 1: it's a good chance. Um. I think it's a tough

940
00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:21,200
Speaker 1: matchup for the Jags h only because I feel like

941
00:52:21,320 --> 00:52:25,840
Speaker 1: right now, anytime they're playing a functioning offense, it's a

942
00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:29,200
Speaker 1: tough matchup for the Jags because you wonder where their

943
00:52:29,239 --> 00:52:32,200
Speaker 1: points are going to come from. Um, Philadelphia runs the

944
00:52:32,280 --> 00:52:33,879
Speaker 1: rp O, they run a lot of things to give

945
00:52:33,880 --> 00:52:38,600
Speaker 1: the jag Wars problems. Um, you hope that the jag

946
00:52:38,600 --> 00:52:40,600
Speaker 1: Wars can avoid turn this into a twenty minute game.

947
00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:43,120
Speaker 1: And but that I mean it's felt like twenty minute

948
00:52:43,120 --> 00:52:45,120
Speaker 1: games last couple of weeks because once the other team scores,

949
00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:48,440
Speaker 1: you feel like it's going to take a miracle to

950
00:52:48,480 --> 00:52:51,920
Speaker 1: get back in it. Um, maybe Carlos Hide fixes that

951
00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:56,480
Speaker 1: or helps them fix that. But you had, says elimination game.

952
00:52:56,640 --> 00:52:59,680
Speaker 1: I'm avoiding calling it a must win. I'm tired of

953
00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:02,600
Speaker 1: the turn. But if it ain't that, what isn't it's

954
00:53:02,680 --> 00:53:05,360
Speaker 1: it's pretty darn close if it's not. Uh. The a

955
00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:07,359
Speaker 1: f C South standings as we look at the now,

956
00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:10,280
Speaker 1: the Houston Texans, of course lead the way all alone

957
00:53:10,320 --> 00:53:12,160
Speaker 1: in first place in the a f C South four

958
00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:14,640
Speaker 1: and three Tennessee and Jacksonville three and four. The Titans

959
00:53:14,640 --> 00:53:18,560
Speaker 1: have the type record Indianapolis at two and five. The

960
00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:21,520
Speaker 1: team leaves on the back in the building tomorrow to

Speaker 1: Text me I'll let you know. I mean I want

972
00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:04,560

973

Speaker 1: around trying to find a bus, grabbing a double decker

974
