WEBVTT - Jaguars Happy Hour: Wednesday, September 25 0:00:00.080 --> 0:00:12.400 Five years of Jaguar's football. He's looking for touchdowns. It 0:00:12.600 --> 0:00:20.759 is Wednesday, September. This is Jaguars Happy Hour, Jack Wars 0:00:20.800 --> 0:00:24.400 Happy Hours presented by the Fields Auto Group and now 0:00:24.640 --> 0:00:30.840 President and CEO of the Peter McNicol Fan Club, Jane Pace. 0:00:32.320 --> 0:00:36.800 I still am not totally sure who that is. This 0:00:36.880 --> 0:00:40.000 is from a previous taped show today that our folks 0:00:40.000 --> 0:00:42.320 in the UK will enjoy a little later in the week. 0:00:42.920 --> 0:00:46.280 Welcome in Jaguars Happy Hour, presented by the Fields Auto Group, 0:00:46.360 --> 0:00:50.440 JP Shadrick, John Osier, Senior writer. Joe's intros are always 0:00:50.440 --> 0:00:53.199 pretty good because I guess when he had eight hours 0:00:53.320 --> 0:00:56.360 to stand on. I don't know what else he does 0:00:56.400 --> 0:01:00.240 all day. To be quite honest with you, Angel don't 0:01:00.240 --> 0:01:05.319 work for for two seconds some days. Some days it 0:01:05.440 --> 0:01:07.800 is um. We've got a lot to get to today. 0:01:07.840 --> 0:01:11.080 Here's what's coming up on the program. Jalen Ramsey talk. 0:01:12.000 --> 0:01:16.959 He did not practice today. Is back injury issue? And 0:01:17.080 --> 0:01:20.480 when was it determined? Kind of the last hour or 0:01:20.480 --> 0:01:24.360 so has been some scuttle bud on Twitter, if you will. 0:01:24.400 --> 0:01:26.440 We'll get to that coming up. It's on to Denver though. 0:01:26.840 --> 0:01:30.640 The Broncos are next zero and three. The defense got 0:01:30.680 --> 0:01:33.839 home last week. Can they continue to keep that pace? 0:01:34.440 --> 0:01:39.080 Minshew Mania is still on fire. Some running a game 0:01:39.120 --> 0:01:43.320 adjustments on the offensive line, and as always, wide receiver 0:01:43.400 --> 0:01:48.160 Chris Conley joins us Andrew wingered safety. Special teams are 0:01:48.920 --> 0:01:54.320 special team or teams are team special teams? Player, we'll 0:01:54.400 --> 0:01:57.800 join us, and of course Jim Lock, head equipment manager, 0:01:57.800 --> 0:01:59.440 will w U build the uniforms. So a lot to 0:01:59.480 --> 0:02:02.560 get to today. Let's start off with all this Ramsey business. 0:02:02.920 --> 0:02:06.280 He did not practice on Monday on a walkthrough with 0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:09.840 an illness. The players off day was Tuesday, and he 0:02:09.880 --> 0:02:13.120 did not practice today. He's on the injury list, at 0:02:13.160 --> 0:02:16.880 least pre practice injury list as not practicing today, he 0:02:16.919 --> 0:02:20.519 was not out there with a back issue. And then 0:02:20.720 --> 0:02:25.359 the last hour or so the questions of when that 0:02:25.480 --> 0:02:29.680 injury issue was reported, Well then Dug Maron didn't have 0:02:29.760 --> 0:02:32.080 much of an answer for that in his press conference today. 0:02:32.120 --> 0:02:35.120 But now some national media types have talked to Ramsey's 0:02:35.160 --> 0:02:38.200 agent apparently, and they claim it was during the fourth 0:02:38.280 --> 0:02:40.760 quarter of the game on Thursday night. What do you 0:02:40.800 --> 0:02:44.440 make of all this? Now? Does it all matter? Does 0:02:44.520 --> 0:02:47.680 any of it? Does anybody really know what time it is. 0:02:47.960 --> 0:02:56.720 It's at this point, I it feels like the story 0:02:57.240 --> 0:03:03.160 is going to evolve, change, be different day to day 0:03:03.160 --> 0:03:07.560 on everything. And I guess the bottom line is, you know, 0:03:08.240 --> 0:03:11.040 on Monday, I do know and for from good people, 0:03:11.639 --> 0:03:14.400 the sickness was real. I don't doubt that there's a 0:03:14.440 --> 0:03:20.080 back injury. Um, it's just you know, on on drivetime, 0:03:20.200 --> 0:03:25.239 right after the the sickness was reported, Brian Sexton and 0:03:25.360 --> 0:03:30.119 I both sort of, you know, reacted with skepticism and 0:03:30.480 --> 0:03:35.880 later got some emails saying, oh, you know that was rude, etcetera, etcetera. 0:03:36.240 --> 0:03:42.320 But you know, it's sort of a little uh boy, 0:03:42.360 --> 0:03:46.480 you cried wolf a little bit and that's not exactly accurate. 0:03:46.520 --> 0:03:49.640 But when there's so much going on around you and 0:03:49.800 --> 0:03:54.320 you make the trade requests and then behave on the field, 0:03:54.320 --> 0:03:58.440 behave off the field, the story is coming out all different. 0:03:58.760 --> 0:04:01.440 There's going to be Skepticis is him now with whatever 0:04:01.600 --> 0:04:05.320 is said and whatever is done? And is it right? 0:04:05.400 --> 0:04:07.680 Is it wrong for us to be skeptical for fantasy skeptical? 0:04:07.760 --> 0:04:10.120 I don't know, but that's the reality of it right 0:04:10.160 --> 0:04:16.160 now that it's it's such a confused, meandering storyline, is 0:04:16.200 --> 0:04:19.760 such a weird storyline that and there's not going to 0:04:19.800 --> 0:04:22.880 be facts involved, so you've got to speculate on what 0:04:23.040 --> 0:04:30.120 you hear, and it's a it's confusing meandering all those things. 0:04:30.560 --> 0:04:33.359 I think the bottom line is, I don't think Jalen 0:04:33.440 --> 0:04:36.520 is going to change his stance on wanting to be trade. 0:04:36.560 --> 0:04:38.760 I don't get that feeling that's going to change. I 0:04:38.839 --> 0:04:42.760 don't get the idea that the Jaguars are planning to 0:04:42.839 --> 0:04:47.440 change their walk toward Hey, you're a player on our team. 0:04:47.680 --> 0:04:51.120 You have tears remaining on your contract, and players under 0:04:51.120 --> 0:04:54.760 contracts in this league play You're not gonna be necessarily happy. 0:04:54.839 --> 0:04:57.080 But you know what, a lot of people aren't happy. 0:04:59.000 --> 0:05:01.200 That's right. I mean a lot of walks of life. 0:05:01.240 --> 0:05:02.800 But you still go to your job and you do it. 0:05:02.880 --> 0:05:05.800 And he's making light of his feelings on it. But 0:05:05.920 --> 0:05:09.160 the reality is the team has a job to do 0:05:09.400 --> 0:05:12.560 in preparing for a game and putting their team on 0:05:12.600 --> 0:05:16.800 the field. Jalen is under contract, and I don't there's 0:05:16.839 --> 0:05:18.400 sort of a good faith in the NFL that if 0:05:18.400 --> 0:05:20.040 you're under contract, you're going to play the best of 0:05:20.080 --> 0:05:22.479 your ability. I think that's what they're counting on, and 0:05:22.480 --> 0:05:25.360 I think he will because he's a pro and he's 0:05:25.400 --> 0:05:27.560 a great player who wants to be He loves football 0:05:27.600 --> 0:05:30.919 and wants to play for all that stuff comes off 0:05:30.920 --> 0:05:33.360 of that track. I guess that's the track that I'm 0:05:33.360 --> 0:05:36.720 assuming it'll follow, And to give Jalen the benefit of 0:05:36.760 --> 0:05:38.480 the doubt on it, I think he'll follow that track. 0:05:38.520 --> 0:05:41.760 I think his back probably hurts enough for not to play. 0:05:41.839 --> 0:05:43.640 And if he doesn't play on Sunday and it comes 0:05:43.680 --> 0:05:46.720 out that it was anything other than a back ben, 0:05:46.800 --> 0:05:49.800 shame on him, well, then then that's a totally different 0:05:50.720 --> 0:05:52.440 I don't think they'll be shame on him. You know, 0:05:52.480 --> 0:05:55.719 there was the tweet earlier today from Adam Schefter saying 0:05:55.760 --> 0:05:59.159 that basically it was he felt like it was a 0:05:59.160 --> 0:06:04.840 long shot of the plays this week paraphrase. I'm assuming 0:06:04.880 --> 0:06:06.680 that that's what it would be, that his back is 0:06:06.720 --> 0:06:08.880 so hurt that he can't play. But the gist of 0:06:08.920 --> 0:06:12.159 the tweet was basically is because of the standoff between 0:06:12.200 --> 0:06:14.680 the team and that's him, which is that's a shame. 0:06:14.839 --> 0:06:17.560 But I don't see him just missing a football game 0:06:17.680 --> 0:06:21.000 over this of a squabble with the front office, because 0:06:21.000 --> 0:06:22.840 he's never missed a football game. Why would he miss 0:06:22.880 --> 0:06:26.159 a football game, if he's not hurt, well, if that's 0:06:26.160 --> 0:06:29.839 what it is, you know, maybe I'm just naive guy, 0:06:29.960 --> 0:06:33.840 j That's fine, but I think he plays enough to 0:06:33.880 --> 0:06:35.960 play place. And then if he and then if he 0:06:36.000 --> 0:06:39.240 doesn't and it's because of the standoff, then you deactivate 0:06:39.320 --> 0:06:41.080 him til he's ready to play. Then that's then we're 0:06:41.080 --> 0:06:44.360 going down the path we haven't been down yet, best 0:06:45.560 --> 0:06:47.960 And you know, I think there's a school of thought 0:06:48.000 --> 0:06:50.920 that you as you deactivate him stil he's ready to play, 0:06:51.240 --> 0:06:54.920 you continue doing that. And if it turns into one week, 0:06:54.960 --> 0:06:59.200 two weeks, end of season next year, all right, let's 0:06:59.200 --> 0:07:02.440 move forward this jail Ramsey stuff today and that will 0:07:02.480 --> 0:07:09.160 be right. But tomorrow is a different day. Let's see 0:07:09.200 --> 0:07:11.920 what happens, you know, twenty four hours from now. Let's 0:07:12.080 --> 0:07:16.760 Gardner Minshew, Jaguars quarterback spoke today. Always an interesting conversation 0:07:16.800 --> 0:07:19.360 with the Jaguars quarterback now who came in of course 0:07:19.400 --> 0:07:21.440 in Week one and relief of Nick Foles. And he's 0:07:21.440 --> 0:07:23.840 been the starting quarterback the last two weeks. And we'll 0:07:23.880 --> 0:07:25.880 be now for the foreseeable future, at least the next 0:07:25.920 --> 0:07:28.560 month and a half or so. For the Jacksonville Jaguars. 0:07:28.600 --> 0:07:30.880 You see his numbers there and what he did last 0:07:30.880 --> 0:07:33.960 week and that win on Thursday Night football. He was 0:07:34.000 --> 0:07:38.120 already kind of taking over things in this city before 0:07:38.240 --> 0:07:41.200 last week on Thursday Night Football. Now it's started. The 0:07:41.480 --> 0:07:46.200 snowball of Minshew mania has continued since then. You know. Now, 0:07:46.360 --> 0:07:48.880 just hearing from him today, none of this stuff. I 0:07:48.880 --> 0:07:51.480 don't think he really phases him. I think he gets 0:07:51.520 --> 0:07:53.560 a kick out of it. I think he loves the 0:07:53.600 --> 0:07:56.760 fact that his dad gets interviewed now and does stuff nationally, 0:07:56.800 --> 0:07:59.880 and you know, people know his story and what it 0:08:00.000 --> 0:08:02.680 took to get to this point. I think he could 0:08:02.920 --> 0:08:05.960 gets a kick out of all of it. But it doesn't. 0:08:06.040 --> 0:08:08.680 Don't let it distract from football now. This guy is 0:08:08.720 --> 0:08:10.520 locked into what he has to do on a day 0:08:10.560 --> 0:08:14.240 to day basis in this building. I'm not inside Gardner's head. Um, 0:08:15.200 --> 0:08:20.000 it's got to be what a scene, Um, But my 0:08:20.080 --> 0:08:22.240 impression and the way you approaches things, and this is 0:08:22.320 --> 0:08:26.160 just from sort of watching it from your ten ft 0:08:26.160 --> 0:08:28.880 away in the press conference. Isn't watching it as people do. 0:08:29.680 --> 0:08:35.439 Is he understand that this mania thing is out there? Uh? 0:08:35.760 --> 0:08:41.679 He today? He answered, you were there forty seconds worth 0:08:41.679 --> 0:08:44.560 the questions on Minshi mania right in the press conference. 0:08:45.120 --> 0:08:48.720 Um My guess is from the time he landed from 0:08:48.800 --> 0:08:54.000 his trip back from Pullman until the end of the 0:08:54.040 --> 0:08:57.280 game on Sunday, that that thirty five or forty seconds 0:08:57.360 --> 0:09:00.760 is about what he'll think about Minshi mania. He says it, 0:09:00.920 --> 0:09:03.280 and he's a fun guy, So everybody else will talk 0:09:03.320 --> 0:09:05.880 about it. They'll be clips, they'll be Sports Center, they'll 0:09:05.880 --> 0:09:09.280 be the mustache stuff our our marketing people will be mustache, 0:09:09.280 --> 0:09:12.600 you know, all that stuff. And that's all great. But 0:09:12.800 --> 0:09:15.079 once you know, I'm pointing to the hallway was where 0:09:15.120 --> 0:09:18.880 football begins around here. Once he's in there, I think 0:09:18.960 --> 0:09:21.560 the forty five seconds that he talked about it, answered 0:09:21.559 --> 0:09:24.400 a couple of funny questions are about as much thought 0:09:24.440 --> 0:09:26.920 as he gives it. And I think that's the way. 0:09:27.440 --> 0:09:31.160 Remember this is not new to him. This is not 0:09:31.240 --> 0:09:35.440 a he was this guy in Washington h all of 0:09:35.520 --> 0:09:39.559 last year, Washington State all of last year. Uh So 0:09:39.679 --> 0:09:42.880 to him, this is just something that's risen up again. 0:09:43.440 --> 0:09:46.600 What's striking JP, what's the most fascinating I've ever been 0:09:46.600 --> 0:09:49.760 around in twenty five years doing this. It's almost like 0:09:49.760 --> 0:09:53.200 there are parallel universes with the Jaguars. Right now, there's 0:09:53.240 --> 0:09:56.840 the weirdness that is Jalen Ramsey. And when I say weird, 0:09:56.920 --> 0:10:00.360 I mean he's weird, but that that story is bizarre, sure, 0:10:00.720 --> 0:10:03.080 and it's blown up, and that's blowing up, and it's this, 0:10:03.360 --> 0:10:07.160 it's this boy. Things are just a mess. Like nationally 0:10:07.240 --> 0:10:10.400 they think this is overwhelming the building. I don't feel 0:10:10.400 --> 0:10:12.480 like that's willing. Were willing to building all the jail 0:10:12.600 --> 0:10:15.520 Ramsey story. It's over willing the media covering it, But 0:10:15.559 --> 0:10:18.959 inside the building it's okay. Jalen is he He's always 0:10:19.000 --> 0:10:21.600 been a little bit of a side show. Now it's 0:10:21.640 --> 0:10:23.080 just a little bit of a different level side show. 0:10:23.120 --> 0:10:25.560 But that's over here. And then there's the weirdness they 0:10:25.600 --> 0:10:29.559 this Gardner Minshew never the Twain shall meet. And I 0:10:30.360 --> 0:10:32.400 don't think either of them are actually affecting what's going 0:10:32.440 --> 0:10:33.800 on in the field that much, which is that for 0:10:33.840 --> 0:10:35.640 the last seven quarters this team has played as well 0:10:35.640 --> 0:10:38.880 as it's played in the year. That's a fascinating it's 0:10:38.880 --> 0:10:41.959 a fascinating thing. What gets lost in all of it 0:10:42.040 --> 0:10:44.400 is that the team's playing well and I feel like 0:10:44.440 --> 0:10:46.120 they have a chance to win the next couple of games. 0:10:46.200 --> 0:10:48.160 And really get back into this thing. I think the 0:10:48.200 --> 0:10:50.240 team feels like it's playing well and these other two 0:10:50.320 --> 0:10:53.160 things are just things that people are talking about because 0:10:53.160 --> 0:10:55.800 it's fine to talk about and that kind of thing. Sometimes, 0:10:55.800 --> 0:10:59.360 I mean, what if that, what if those outside noise 0:10:59.520 --> 0:11:03.080 things are what brings this team together inside? I mean 0:11:03.280 --> 0:11:06.880 because maybe ever since those things have happened, well, guess what, 0:11:07.000 --> 0:11:09.000 like you said, they've played really good football. They can 0:11:09.120 --> 0:11:12.560 keep that up some element among the players, especially on defense, 0:11:12.640 --> 0:11:15.000 of Hey, Jalen is going to do his thing, and 0:11:15.040 --> 0:11:17.080 that's fine, we love him, We want him on the 0:11:17.080 --> 0:11:20.280 field because he's great. But no matter what happens, we're good. Yeah, 0:11:20.480 --> 0:11:22.240 we still have to go out there and play the 0:11:22.280 --> 0:11:24.560 rest of us. And this defense for the past seven course, 0:11:25.200 --> 0:11:27.640 a lot of it because of Jalen, but as much 0:11:27.679 --> 0:11:29.800 of it because of the past rest. The other night 0:11:30.800 --> 0:11:33.040 is playing at a level that matches for the last 0:11:33.040 --> 0:11:36.400 two games anything they've done in the last what at 0:11:36.400 --> 0:11:38.880 three or four years, and they've been really good. And 0:11:39.000 --> 0:11:42.360 I don't really think that they're affected by the whole 0:11:42.480 --> 0:11:45.800 Ramsey thing, except for the fact that when he's on 0:11:45.920 --> 0:11:48.840 the field, boy is he a lockdown corner at that 0:11:48.880 --> 0:11:51.320 one spot. But I feel like they think they're pretty good, 0:11:52.320 --> 0:11:55.240 maybe great with them and near great no matter what. 0:11:55.920 --> 0:11:57.960 They have other good players back there too. Obviously not 0:11:58.040 --> 0:11:59.800 at that level. I'm not saying there at the level, 0:11:59.840 --> 0:12:04.520 but they have a whole there. Their defensive front as 0:12:04.559 --> 0:12:09.360 a whole. As good as Jayalen is, the defensive front 0:12:09.360 --> 0:12:12.480 in the line rotation is still the most important thing 0:12:12.559 --> 0:12:16.000 about this team, regardless of how good Jayn is, because 0:12:16.040 --> 0:12:18.800 it helps that back in. I think whoever's back there, 0:12:18.800 --> 0:12:22.199 so if the defensive pass rush plays like it did 0:12:22.240 --> 0:12:24.640 the other night, it doesn't matter who's playing back there. 0:12:26.160 --> 0:12:29.440 Let's move on on offense now a bit here, And 0:12:29.800 --> 0:12:31.480 you know, the running game has been a big topic 0:12:31.559 --> 0:12:33.760 this week. How do you fix the running game? Well, 0:12:33.800 --> 0:12:36.840 Doug Marone earlier in the week said, it's really you know, 0:12:36.880 --> 0:12:39.000 it's not a lot with having to do with Leonard. 0:12:39.280 --> 0:12:42.520 You know, he's doing what he can, but he doesn't 0:12:42.559 --> 0:12:44.520 have a lot of time to do certain things when 0:12:44.840 --> 0:12:47.280 defenders are in the backfield. And he had negative yard 0:12:47.360 --> 0:12:49.440 is before the long run of sixty nine yards late 0:12:49.440 --> 0:12:52.680 in the game last week on Thursday Night Football finished 0:12:52.720 --> 0:12:56.000 with the sixties six yards totally in that game, But 0:12:56.080 --> 0:12:58.200 when he's getting hit behind the line or at the 0:12:58.200 --> 0:13:00.240 line of scrimmage, it's hard to get any moment at them. 0:13:00.240 --> 0:13:02.480 But that starts up front on that offensive line. They've 0:13:02.480 --> 0:13:05.000 got to figure it out in the running game. They've 0:13:05.000 --> 0:13:07.480 been good in pass protection. They're given Gardener time and 0:13:07.520 --> 0:13:11.360 all that, but to really make this thing sing over 0:13:11.400 --> 0:13:14.440 the next month or two, they've got to have a 0:13:14.440 --> 0:13:16.520 balance there. Gardener has got to have a run game 0:13:16.559 --> 0:13:18.880 to support him, to open up that defense a little bit, 0:13:18.960 --> 0:13:21.520 and vice versa. They get the run game going, they've 0:13:21.520 --> 0:13:23.320 gotta continue to pass it. But it really it starts 0:13:23.360 --> 0:13:25.160 up front with that group, and they've they've had some 0:13:25.200 --> 0:13:27.199 guys coming and go in the last couple of weeks 0:13:27.200 --> 0:13:33.920 there he's he's missed the hold. Yeah, and he is 0:13:34.000 --> 0:13:38.720 not or has not shown to be the sort of 0:13:38.840 --> 0:13:43.400 miss ability type back that you would love. But when 0:13:43.440 --> 0:13:47.280 you're negative three fourteen carries that ain't on the back 0:13:48.320 --> 0:13:50.840 negative three for fourteen carries means you're getting hit in 0:13:50.840 --> 0:13:52.440 the backfield before you have a chance to get started 0:13:52.480 --> 0:13:57.360 more often than not. So is it all the offensive line, No, 0:13:57.640 --> 0:14:00.120 But when you have that kind of stat things are 0:14:00.160 --> 0:14:02.240 getting blown up. I keep on getting these letters or 0:14:03.000 --> 0:14:07.000 these emails, Why don't they try another back? Um, because 0:14:08.880 --> 0:14:12.160 is not doing anything wrong. What I'm not sure Armstad 0:14:12.200 --> 0:14:13.760 is gonna make a guy missed when he takes the 0:14:13.760 --> 0:14:17.400 ball and literally is behind the line. So uh, I 0:14:17.400 --> 0:14:19.000 don't doubt the other two backs are gonna play at 0:14:19.040 --> 0:14:20.880 some point and they're gonna play key roles. But this 0:14:20.960 --> 0:14:23.239 was there playing all along to have him play these downs. 0:14:23.280 --> 0:14:27.160 But and because they believe that him in the game, 0:14:27.880 --> 0:14:30.320 because he's turning into a very good third down back. 0:14:31.120 --> 0:14:35.040 The looks they can give when you put another back in, 0:14:36.200 --> 0:14:40.520 the looks that back tips off what they're gonna do. 0:14:40.880 --> 0:14:42.800 And I don't think there is good in the passing 0:14:42.840 --> 0:14:46.680 game or or in past protection. As fre Nett is 0:14:47.160 --> 0:14:49.960 with Leonard. It's much the same concept why teams often 0:14:50.000 --> 0:14:52.000 go too tight ends. You're hard to read what they're 0:14:52.000 --> 0:14:53.840 gonna do. When Leonard's in, they can do anything in 0:14:53.880 --> 0:14:56.680 their offense they want to do and their balance. There's 0:14:56.760 --> 0:15:00.480 no key, there's no tip off based him being in 0:15:00.520 --> 0:15:04.560 the game. Um. So I just think there is a 0:15:04.600 --> 0:15:07.000 school of thought when they look at, Okay, who were 0:15:07.040 --> 0:15:09.080 going to play in there? Who's our best guy? Well, 0:15:09.920 --> 0:15:11.680 are we going to get something more from putting somebody 0:15:11.680 --> 0:15:15.160 else in right now? No, at what point? Though? The 0:15:15.240 --> 0:15:18.960 question for me is is this many reps for for 0:15:19.160 --> 0:15:22.160 Net a bad thing for for Net? Can he handle 0:15:22.240 --> 0:15:24.560 this kind of workload and how long can he handle it? 0:15:24.680 --> 0:15:27.320 Because I don't think he's ever had this kind of workload. No, 0:15:27.440 --> 0:15:30.160 but he's not getting an incredible number of touches yet. 0:15:30.480 --> 0:15:37.200 I mean, it's not like he's up around touches. He 0:15:37.240 --> 0:15:40.320 had what fifteen or sixteen the other night, So he's 0:15:40.360 --> 0:15:43.280 on the field a lot. He's not running thirty yards 0:15:43.320 --> 0:15:51.160 each time. Fair question. I would expect it to wayne 0:15:51.200 --> 0:15:52.880 a little bit as time goes, because it felt like 0:15:52.920 --> 0:15:55.040 in the game he took some shots the other night, 0:15:55.160 --> 0:15:57.200 like in the passing game he took a couple of 0:15:57.280 --> 0:15:59.600 hits and was I don't know, it wasn't dinged up. 0:15:59.600 --> 0:16:01.720 I don't want to go there, but you could just 0:16:01.720 --> 0:16:03.920 tell there's a little frustration towards the end of that game. 0:16:03.960 --> 0:16:04.960 I think if I don't know if it had to 0:16:05.000 --> 0:16:06.360 do we haven't had a chance to talk to him 0:16:06.360 --> 0:16:08.440 this week yet, who it had to do with. If 0:16:08.440 --> 0:16:10.240 you're getting hit to yours on my scument, you're gonna 0:16:10.240 --> 0:16:12.960 get frustrated to that's right. I mean he gets a 0:16:12.960 --> 0:16:14.600 little bit of it, but maybe I mean on the 0:16:14.640 --> 0:16:16.960 long run, you never see him get run down on 0:16:16.960 --> 0:16:19.360 a run like that, you know, And that had to 0:16:19.400 --> 0:16:22.320 be from from just a little exhaust to his credit, uh, 0:16:23.920 --> 0:16:27.920 I think this deserves to be said about him. It 0:16:28.000 --> 0:16:31.320 bubbled during his rookie year. It really blew up last year. 0:16:31.480 --> 0:16:34.360 All the criticism of how this guy was off the field, 0:16:34.440 --> 0:16:37.400 his approach, all that stuff got called into question, his 0:16:37.560 --> 0:16:40.280 dealings with the media, et cetera. All it was either 0:16:40.320 --> 0:16:43.520 an underlying or fight out out there. With the statement 0:16:43.760 --> 0:16:47.560 from Coughing at the end of last season, Um, whatever 0:16:47.600 --> 0:16:50.800 the motivation and how long it lasts, he can't have 0:16:50.880 --> 0:16:54.680 approached things better this year. He has been professionally, has 0:16:54.680 --> 0:16:57.080 been a stand up guy, even beyond the dealings with us. 0:16:57.120 --> 0:16:59.680 Everything you hear is that we couldn't have asked for 0:16:59.720 --> 0:17:01.800 a bit or approach in terms of how he's approaching 0:17:01.800 --> 0:17:04.679 things mentally as he is right now. There was no 0:17:04.760 --> 0:17:07.919 frustration after the game the other night. He didn't come 0:17:07.960 --> 0:17:09.800 out and say, hey, if my line had blocked better, 0:17:09.840 --> 0:17:11.640 we'd have done this. You don't get that from this guy. 0:17:11.760 --> 0:17:15.840 So Uh. As much as he's been criticized for these 0:17:15.840 --> 0:17:17.320 sort of things in the past, I think he deserves 0:17:17.359 --> 0:17:19.400 credit for how he's approached things this year. It's been good. 0:17:19.400 --> 0:17:21.600 So it really has. And he stands there and answers 0:17:21.640 --> 0:17:23.919 the questions as dumb as they may be, right, but 0:17:23.960 --> 0:17:25.560 he stands there and answers him the best that he 0:17:25.600 --> 0:17:28.439 can far with to his credit, some guys come out 0:17:28.480 --> 0:17:30.440 and do that, and it's clear, I don't want to 0:17:30.480 --> 0:17:32.920 be here. There's really been no eye roll. There's really 0:17:32.960 --> 0:17:34.400 been and there was some of that in the past. 0:17:34.600 --> 0:17:39.000 Like when you're talking to him, he's he's on his 0:17:39.040 --> 0:17:41.560 best behavior and I have no reason to think that 0:17:41.560 --> 0:17:44.800 that won't continue. And your credit to him, because that's 0:17:45.680 --> 0:17:47.320 probably wasn't a thing in the world for him today. 0:17:47.320 --> 0:17:49.320 But when he's in that mode, which he is now, 0:17:49.400 --> 0:17:51.480 he's a pretty engaging guy. If you sit there and 0:17:51.520 --> 0:17:54.920 talk to him, he's one of the I mean next 0:17:54.920 --> 0:17:57.600 to Minshew, who's like might have a career in stand 0:17:57.680 --> 0:18:02.200 up comedy. Uh, He's an engaging is and is as 0:18:02.240 --> 0:18:04.200 good interview as there is in the locker room when 0:18:04.240 --> 0:18:06.800 he wants to. Let's come back. We'll touch on the 0:18:06.800 --> 0:18:10.920 Broncos what their issues may be. Well, I don't know 0:18:10.920 --> 0:18:13.960 if we'll figure them out, but we'll touch on some 0:18:14.040 --> 0:18:15.879 of the stars on that football team that don't have 0:18:15.880 --> 0:18:19.080 any sacks yet too. This is the defensive stars, it 0:18:19.160 --> 0:18:21.200 really is.

UM. 0:20:37.800 --> 0:20:41.960 The Denver Broncos are oh and three the quarterback situation. 0:20:41.960 --> 0:20:44.280 They traded for Flacco. He's the guy there and they 0:20:44.320 --> 0:20:47.760 like lock but he's hurt right now, the young guy UM. 0:20:48.000 --> 0:20:51.680 And their defense has kind of been their strength over 0:20:51.720 --> 0:20:53.840 the last few years, obviously back to the Super Bowl 0:20:53.960 --> 0:20:56.000 run a few years ago when they had that run 0:20:56.080 --> 0:20:58.360 before Malie Millie Jackson, the Super Bowl run and all 0:20:58.359 --> 0:21:00.800 that stuff, and Von Miller has been there. Some of 0:21:00.800 --> 0:21:04.560 those guys are still there, but they're not, you know, 0:21:04.600 --> 0:21:08.400 putting up the statistics they I think expect year over year. 0:21:08.400 --> 0:21:10.480 In Denver, they don't have any sacks as a defense. 0:21:10.520 --> 0:21:13.359 With Chubb and Miller on the defensive side. It seems 0:21:14.640 --> 0:21:17.000 they were a team that realistically knew this was going 0:21:17.080 --> 0:21:18.679 to be something of the transition year. It's why you 0:21:18.680 --> 0:21:21.480 bring somebody like Flacco in you draft who you hope 0:21:21.480 --> 0:21:24.080 to be the quarterback, and you hope that by the 0:21:24.160 --> 0:21:27.000 end of this year, you've shown improvement and you feel 0:21:27.000 --> 0:21:29.320 like you're going a positive direction with possibly the new 0:21:29.400 --> 0:21:36.240 quarterback um. Their plan from Afar seems to be, uh, 0:21:36.560 --> 0:21:39.840 we have a really good defense that can create things 0:21:40.160 --> 0:21:42.520 when some close games or early stay in it and 0:21:42.640 --> 0:21:44.879 feel like you're gonna get going when you're intransicing. That's 0:21:44.920 --> 0:21:48.200 what you hope to do. The plan sort of worked 0:21:48.320 --> 0:21:51.560 in the sense that they had the Chicago game in 0:21:51.600 --> 0:21:54.360 week to one and let us slip through their fingers. 0:21:55.280 --> 0:21:57.639 I think the one thing that it sounds like hasn't 0:21:57.640 --> 0:22:00.240
