God Jaguars well 0:00:08.119 --> 0:00:18.239 for made the Draftguards gonna win, There's still it is Wednesday, October. 0:00:19.760 --> 0:00:26.880 This is Jaguars Happy Hour. Jaguars Happy Hour is brought 0:00:26.920 --> 0:00:31.120 to you by the Fields Auto Group. Hey now a 0:00:31.400 --> 0:00:35.080 f C Special Teams Player of the Week runner up, 0:00:35.920 --> 0:00:40.559 J P. Shadrack. I don't think I'm gonna get it 0:00:40.640 --> 0:00:43.120 this year. If Josh Lambo keeps doing what he's doing, 0:00:43.560 --> 0:00:47.720 it's impressive. It has welcome in Jaguars Happy Hour presented 0:00:47.720 --> 0:00:51.080 by the Fields Auto Group. JP Shadrick. That senior writer 0:00:51.400 --> 0:00:54.560 John Osan Hi John Happy Jets Week. It is Jets 0:00:54.560 --> 0:00:58.480 Wick and it's uh. I think it's it's it's an 0:00:58.520 --> 0:01:03.080 amazingly similar storyline. The last week, must win against the 0:01:03.120 --> 0:01:06.959 team that you should win. I mean, let's uh, when 0:01:06.959 --> 0:01:09.640 you're winning five, I mean even taking away Monday night 0:01:09.680 --> 0:01:11.360 and I think that was an outlier for the Jets. 0:01:11.360 --> 0:01:14.959 Everybody's gonna lock onto that. But it's a home game 0:01:15.000 --> 0:01:18.720 against the team that's that's uh, you know, not the Saints. 0:01:19.040 --> 0:01:21.280 It's not the chart. You know, it's not a great 0:01:21.319 --> 0:01:23.160 team coming into you ought to win it, just like 0:01:23.200 --> 0:01:24.920 you should have won last week. But as we saw 0:01:25.080 --> 0:01:28.319 last week, if you let teams hang around, and the 0:01:28.400 --> 0:01:32.120 Jaguars let the Bengals hang around, uh NFL teams are dangerous. 0:01:32.240 --> 0:01:34.399 This is not college football where you can just sort of, 0:01:35.040 --> 0:01:37.480 you know, slide and gradually get away. You've got to 0:01:37.520 --> 0:01:40.039 earn your way away from teams. And that's a big 0:01:40.080 --> 0:01:43.280 topic this week. Red zone scoring cost him last Week's 0:01:43.280 --> 0:01:46.200 gotta be better. Here's what's coming up on the program 0:01:46.240 --> 0:01:50.000 today here on Jaguars Happy Hour, Jets Week Underway. Of course, 0:01:50.040 --> 0:01:52.680 as we said, we'll hear from head coach Doug Morone 0:01:52.720 --> 0:01:56.280 and a couple of topics this week. Quarterback talk. There's 0:01:56.280 --> 0:01:58.520 a quarterback back on the practice field this week you 0:01:58.600 --> 0:02:01.160 might have heard of. There are some linebackers that you 0:02:01.240 --> 0:02:02.880 might not have heard of that are on the practice 0:02:02.920 --> 0:02:05.520 field this week. Some new faces at least the uniform unveiling. 0:02:05.560 --> 0:02:08.200 Jimmy Luck to to join us at about four thirty 0:02:08.240 --> 0:02:10.560 five or so. Chris Conley due to join us in 0:02:10.639 --> 0:02:14.440 studio after meetings. That's a round four and he'll have 0:02:14.520 --> 0:02:18.200 a special guest to be named. They'll surprise us once again. 0:02:18.280 --> 0:02:22.320 He always does. The big topics today, really the injury 0:02:22.360 --> 0:02:24.840 bug going around this team, especially on the what do 0:02:24.919 --> 0:02:26.920 you what do you doing? John? I was looking for 0:02:26.960 --> 0:02:30.200 the special guest find No, Well, we're gonna have that 0:02:30.360 --> 0:02:36.000 at today. So, um, the big story today injuries and 0:02:36.040 --> 0:02:38.760 of course late in the game. The linebackers really had 0:02:38.800 --> 0:02:42.720 some issues last week and the Cincinnati Bengals, and they 0:02:42.760 --> 0:02:45.519 had to go sign some guys off the street. A name, 0:02:45.560 --> 0:02:48.079 you know, Donald Payne who was around here before. That 0:02:48.160 --> 0:02:52.160 will help name. You also know um in the former 0:02:52.360 --> 0:02:55.760 Super Bowl MVP, who's now on this football team. And he, 0:02:56.240 --> 0:02:58.000 you know, just coming off the street though. You just 0:02:58.040 --> 0:03:01.120 don't know what's gonna happen there. Giles Harris coming off 0:03:01.120 --> 0:03:02.880 to practice squad. That's a lot of changes. Then you 0:03:02.960 --> 0:03:06.880 throw in Marcel Darius who was not here today. It 0:03:06.919 --> 0:03:11.200 was in Philadelphia. Um with the core muscle issue. Um, 0:03:11.560 --> 0:03:14.440 Marquis Sleeve is coming off of an ankle. You've got 0:03:15.000 --> 0:03:16.960 the left tackle has got a toe issue. It did 0:03:16.960 --> 0:03:19.400 not practice today. There's there's a long list of guys 0:03:19.440 --> 0:03:23.359 not available for the Jags today. Yeah, it's it's a week. Uh. 0:03:23.560 --> 0:03:27.000 Most teams at some point during the season go through 0:03:27.000 --> 0:03:28.959 a week like this. The Jacks went through a lot 0:03:29.080 --> 0:03:32.919 last year. Last year is what we called. But you're 0:03:33.000 --> 0:03:35.600 usually gonna hit a stretch like this where you've got 0:03:35.640 --> 0:03:38.120 some stuff that you hope it's not season ending. You 0:03:38.160 --> 0:03:40.240 hope you can get through it. I'm not sure I've 0:03:40.240 --> 0:03:43.560 ever quite seen a run on linebacker quite like this. 0:03:44.120 --> 0:03:48.160 I would anticipate Giles Harris getting a lot of reps 0:03:48.160 --> 0:03:50.320 because he's been around. This is a staff and a 0:03:50.360 --> 0:03:54.160 team that likes to go with what is familiar. So 0:03:54.280 --> 0:04:01.480 I would anticipate you seeing uh I a mile and 0:04:01.480 --> 0:04:05.200 and uh and and I Harris on the field. But 0:04:05.480 --> 0:04:07.040 these guys who got brought in this week, they're gonna 0:04:07.040 --> 0:04:08.840 have to play. I mean, it's it's gonna be an 0:04:09.080 --> 0:04:16.120 amazingly quick turnaround. H You would anticipate seeing even more 0:04:16.240 --> 0:04:20.080 nickel than usual. If if Jacobs is down, you can 0:04:20.120 --> 0:04:23.360 alleviate that by just playing in your nickel package. Jared 0:04:23.400 --> 0:04:29.719 Wilson is basically uh A a linebacker at times. He 0:04:29.760 --> 0:04:31.560 played it last week some, so you can you get 0:04:31.560 --> 0:04:33.720 by with that. But it's tough. I mean, it's it's 0:04:34.440 --> 0:04:36.120 you've got to get through it. Every's gonna focus on 0:04:36.160 --> 0:04:38.600 the Jets all week and how poorly they played against 0:04:40.240 --> 0:04:43.800 the Patriots, but considering the Jaguars injury lists, considering what 0:04:43.839 --> 0:04:47.080 they're gonna have to adapt to, UH, I don't think 0:04:47.120 --> 0:04:50.120 it's gonna be closer gain that people think. I think uh, 0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:54.159 the Jaguars defense is going to be playing a motivated 0:04:54.240 --> 0:04:57.320 Jets team that has not been as bad most of 0:04:57.320 --> 0:05:01.200 the season with Donald as it was on day Doug 0:05:01.240 --> 0:05:04.839 Marone discussing the linebacker position earlier today and his Wednesday 0:05:04.839 --> 0:05:17.839 press conference. To add a couple of guys, we switched 0:05:17.920 --> 0:05:23.080 out Perry and Joe Giles Harris from practice squad the roster, 0:05:23.520 --> 0:05:27.080 and then we brought Donald painback who be able to 0:05:27.080 --> 0:05:30.200 help us um know the system special teams wise, and 0:05:30.279 --> 0:05:34.200 and Malcolm Smith, another veteran player who's who's playing in 0:05:34.240 --> 0:05:37.480 the system. So obviously when you bring that many players in, 0:05:38.120 --> 0:05:40.599 I'd probably be listed as doubtful that any of those 0:05:40.600 --> 0:05:44.000 other three, you know, we'll be ready to play this week, 0:05:44.040 --> 0:05:47.440 even though they're obviously gonna try. Not good on that 0:05:47.480 --> 0:05:50.359 list as well, of course for this Jaguars team. I 0:05:50.400 --> 0:05:52.760 spoke with Joe Giles Harris in the locker room today. 0:05:52.760 --> 0:05:54.839 He was on the practice squad the first seven weeks 0:05:54.839 --> 0:05:57.320 of the season, brought up to the active roster. He's 0:05:57.360 --> 0:05:59.920 fired up for sure. Oh, keeping up him up with 0:06:00.120 --> 0:06:02.160 book and doing everything, doing the little things while I've 0:06:02.160 --> 0:06:04.200 been here, you know, hoping i'd get this chance, and 0:06:04.240 --> 0:06:06.599 I finally have it. So I'm ready to go. And 0:06:06.880 --> 0:06:08.760 like I said, and whatever capacity need, whatever they need 0:06:08.760 --> 0:06:10.560 man to play, I'll be ready to play. A lot 0:06:10.600 --> 0:06:13.240 of new faces out there today. Is that where it 0:06:13.279 --> 0:06:15.760 is where it's different. I mean, that's what the NFL is. 0:06:15.800 --> 0:06:17.120 You know, from the time I've been here, I've seen 0:06:17.120 --> 0:06:18.840 a lot of faces come and go, and it's it's 0:06:18.880 --> 0:06:22.320 kind of, you know, a crazy, crazy thing, but uh, 0:06:22.360 --> 0:06:24.000 you get used to it, and you know, you know, 0:06:24.200 --> 0:06:26.600 just talking, you get guys in who are committing to 0:06:26.640 --> 0:06:28.400 a goal. So you know, we still got the core 0:06:28.560 --> 0:06:30.280 and you know, these new guys are gonna help us 0:06:30.279 --> 0:06:32.640 do what we've been doing. Miles Jack's still there, but 0:06:32.880 --> 0:06:35.400 a lot of new faces around. And that's what Jenna happens. 0:06:35.440 --> 0:06:37.640 And it's not just on the defensive side where this 0:06:37.680 --> 0:06:41.120 can affect things. I spoke with Josh Robinson in the 0:06:41.160 --> 0:06:44.360 locker room today. Special teams a cornerback, it can play 0:06:44.400 --> 0:06:47.080 safety too, but on the special teams here. You've got 0:06:47.160 --> 0:06:50.920 a lot of guys who may not have been around here. Now. 0:06:50.960 --> 0:06:53.560 Things change week to week on special teams and assignments 0:06:53.560 --> 0:06:55.839 and all that, but it's still and that's kind of 0:06:55.880 --> 0:06:58.839 somehow sometimes how it happens on special teams that part 0:06:58.839 --> 0:07:01.400 of the roster churns all during season. Well, it does, 0:07:01.440 --> 0:07:04.000 and it's why special teams coordinator such a difficult job. 0:07:04.040 --> 0:07:07.599 It's on a lot of teams, you're not getting guys 0:07:07.839 --> 0:07:11.080 even at the beginning of the season, uh, that you'll love, 0:07:11.400 --> 0:07:14.040 because some teams don't pay attention to This team does 0:07:14.040 --> 0:07:16.000 pay attention to special teams at the start of the season, 0:07:16.440 --> 0:07:20.080 so there's a priority on it. But this is the 0:07:20.120 --> 0:07:23.560 time of year where those guys have to adapt quickly. 0:07:23.600 --> 0:07:26.520 They have to put guys in spots that are really 0:07:26.640 --> 0:07:30.480 starters for them, uh. And they're playing with backups and 0:07:30.520 --> 0:07:33.440 guys who were just off the streets. So it's tough. 0:07:33.440 --> 0:07:35.240 It affects things. And then when you turn it over 0:07:35.240 --> 0:07:39.120 even to the offensive sideways, now have two positions that 0:07:39.120 --> 0:07:41.920 are really depleted. You have tight end and you have 0:07:42.000 --> 0:07:45.000 linebacker that are way down from what you thought it 0:07:45.040 --> 0:07:48.480 would be. And even at the start of the season, Frankly, 0:07:49.040 --> 0:07:53.440 those were not positions that on paper looked like great 0:07:53.480 --> 0:07:57.360 positions of strength with the starters or with depth. They 0:07:57.360 --> 0:08:00.520 were huge question marks going in and now they're major 0:08:00.600 --> 0:08:03.120 question marks. You've got a tight end position, now that 0:08:03.440 --> 0:08:05.880 is uh. You know you're counting on a rookie Josh 0:08:05.880 --> 0:08:08.400 Oliver to come back and play. You've got a linebacker 0:08:08.440 --> 0:08:13.760 position and where Miles Jack is frankly the one guy 0:08:13.800 --> 0:08:17.840 that any Jaguars fan would have heard of, Malcolm Smith, 0:08:17.840 --> 0:08:20.320 but you know at that point who had any relation 0:08:20.360 --> 0:08:26.120 to this team as of Monday. So it is uh. 0:08:26.440 --> 0:08:30.920 It is a tough situation that I usually believe you 0:08:30.920 --> 0:08:34.440 can get through certain injury spots without it affecting you much. 0:08:34.960 --> 0:08:37.240 There to the point of those two positions where it 0:08:37.280 --> 0:08:40.000 will affect and they have to overcome with formances somewhere 0:08:40.000 --> 0:08:42.440 else on your screen there that they have. Of the 0:08:42.480 --> 0:08:45.559 active tight ends, only set to Valve has a catch 0:08:46.000 --> 0:08:48.839 and that's one catch this year. The other two guys, 0:08:49.120 --> 0:08:50.439 I mean, they haven't been on the rush yet. It's 0:08:50.440 --> 0:08:53.480 not like sets been putting up numbers. I mean, so 0:08:53.679 --> 0:08:56.080 it's just not really his role though that has been 0:08:56.080 --> 0:08:58.839 a bleed blocker and then an extra, I mean, a 0:08:58.960 --> 0:09:03.600 tight end blocking. It's a lot to ask, but they 0:09:03.720 --> 0:09:07.280 need I would put the percentage is low at Josh 0:09:07.320 --> 0:09:10.320 Oliver making a huge contribution because it is just tough 0:09:10.360 --> 0:09:13.640 after being out ten weeks to come back as a rookie. 0:09:14.360 --> 0:09:16.320 You know, most rookie third rounders are trying to figure 0:09:16.320 --> 0:09:18.240 out the whole season. Now he's being asked to be 0:09:18.679 --> 0:09:21.439 like a focal point on Twitter, Josh Hollard, just Hollward Oliver. 0:09:22.000 --> 0:09:24.040 That's a tough ask, but they've got to get something 0:09:24.080 --> 0:09:26.880 out of it because otherwise the middle of the field 0:09:26.920 --> 0:09:30.280 on this offense, they're having trouble finding something to get 0:09:30.320 --> 0:09:34.520 going there. It's affecting the offense. Uh, you gotta think 0:09:34.600 --> 0:09:37.400 some of the red zones stuff is not having a 0:09:37.480 --> 0:09:40.520 tight end that you can rely on. Nobody's fault really, 0:09:40.840 --> 0:09:44.040 but they've got to get some production out there, and 0:09:44.040 --> 0:09:46.680 it's it's gonna be interesting to see where that happens. 0:09:46.800 --> 0:09:49.400 Now we've we're talking about news that will affect this 0:09:49.480 --> 0:09:52.800 game this week obviously, but some news that could affect 0:09:52.840 --> 0:09:55.600 the Jaguars a couple of weeks away. The quarterback position. 0:09:55.679 --> 0:09:59.000 Nick Foles back at practice today and head coach Jug 0:09:59.040 --> 0:10:02.440 Maron was asked, what if Nick Foles is not ready 0:10:02.520 --> 0:10:05.679 for a week of eleven, what would happen? I don't know, man, 0:10:05.720 --> 0:10:07.439 I really don't. I think that's why you have a 0:10:07.880 --> 0:10:09.800 twenty one day window, you know what I'm saying. For 0:10:09.880 --> 0:10:12.800 when the guy goes back and he starts practicing, I 0:10:12.840 --> 0:10:14.920 don't think I'm as concerned like when John said, Hey, 0:10:14.920 --> 0:10:17.400 what are you expecting? What are you looking for? I 0:10:17.440 --> 0:10:19.880 think this is just week one back. So we're gonna 0:10:19.920 --> 0:10:23.680 take it back very slowly, and I'll probably be, you know, 0:10:23.720 --> 0:10:26.720 looking at it more so as we get closer, you know, 0:10:26.840 --> 0:10:28.400 to see to see where he is. And I think 0:10:28.440 --> 0:10:30.760 there'll be a lot of communication on you know, how 0:10:30.840 --> 0:10:33.720 you feel and what's going on. Little by little there 0:10:33.760 --> 0:10:36.000 you'll see some scout teams from seven on well we 0:10:36.040 --> 0:10:37.920 won't see it, but he'll have some scout team works 0:10:37.960 --> 0:10:39.960 from seven on seven, and then as the weeks go on, 0:10:40.320 --> 0:10:42.920 the next couple of weeks, we'll do more and more reps. Yeah. 0:10:42.960 --> 0:10:45.160 And if you were slash reader may have heard me 0:10:45.280 --> 0:10:48.920 laughing there at Doug's comments. It's I laughed when he 0:10:48.960 --> 0:10:53.079 said it in the press conference. It's exactly right. Hey, 0:10:53.240 --> 0:10:54.800 what's gonna happen a couple of weeks. I don't know, 0:10:54.880 --> 0:10:57.720 I mean, and that's exactly where we are in the 0:10:57.720 --> 0:11:01.120 whole story right now. What's gonna happen. This is still 0:11:01.160 --> 0:11:03.720 nearly three weeks out two games. I don't know if 0:11:03.720 --> 0:11:05.679 it's gonna be Minshew coming back. I mean, I'm just 0:11:05.679 --> 0:11:08.520 gonna be Falst coming back started over Minshew. I think 0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:10.720 right now, if I had to lean one way, my 0:11:10.840 --> 0:11:13.760 guesses that's what they'll do. It feels like that is 0:11:13.920 --> 0:11:17.960 more likely. But it's not like I'm talking to Chance. 0:11:18.000 --> 0:11:20.839 I mean, I just think that's probably the way they go. Uh. 0:11:21.040 --> 0:11:24.160 You don't know about Minshew's healthy runs around a whole lot. 0:11:24.480 --> 0:11:26.400 You don't know about Fol's ability to stay healthy once 0:11:26.400 --> 0:11:32.640 he's back. So UM with this quarterback situation, and this 0:11:32.679 --> 0:11:34.240 is not just the case with Jaguars fans, it's every 0:11:34.280 --> 0:11:37.880 quarter situation always happens. People always want to who's going 0:11:37.920 --> 0:11:41.600 to start for the duration? Um, and that's what you 0:11:41.640 --> 0:11:44.160 want ideally. But right now, the good news for the 0:11:44.240 --> 0:11:47.319 Jaguars is they have two guys who they like, who 0:11:47.360 --> 0:11:49.400 they feel good about. And if you feel like you 0:11:49.440 --> 0:11:54.520 can win with um, I think right now, the best 0:11:54.559 --> 0:11:56.400 thing to approach is really there's gonna be a debate 0:11:56.440 --> 0:11:59.320 on the outside, but realize that this is going to 0:11:59.400 --> 0:12:02.600 be something that they maybe figure out as they go 0:12:02.880 --> 0:12:07.240 and it becomes a decision after that by and uh 0:12:07.480 --> 0:12:10.520 maybe not a wrong decision in there. So that uh, 0:12:10.720 --> 0:12:13.000 as I said a couple of times, isn't this just 0:12:13.080 --> 0:12:15.440 like the Jaguars jp to be choosing between a couple 0:12:15.480 --> 0:12:18.880 of good quarterbacks. It happens all the time. This problem 0:12:19.000 --> 0:12:23.360 is plagued this franchifix. Just get past that, then they 0:12:23.400 --> 0:12:26.920 can move forward. We did hear from quarterback Gardner Minshew 0:12:26.960 --> 0:12:30.120 today around all of the situation with Nick Foles back 0:12:30.160 --> 0:12:34.240 on the field. He likes it. Yeah, I mean I 0:12:34.280 --> 0:12:37.080 think we're they we're pretty good at quarterback. Nothing else, 0:12:37.160 --> 0:12:40.600 you know, like we got hopefully that's that's the case. Um, 0:12:40.640 --> 0:12:42.839 you know, we love working together and let's see, it's 0:12:42.840 --> 0:12:44.640 gonna be a lot of fun. No, that's why, like 0:12:44.720 --> 0:12:46.920 we're all, like everybody in that room's worried about beating 0:12:46.920 --> 0:12:49.200 the Jets this week, and then next week is gonna 0:12:49.200 --> 0:12:50.960 beating the Texans, and then after that and they'll be 0:12:51.000 --> 0:12:52.960 and beating whoever else we play after the by So 0:12:53.000 --> 0:12:55.960 there's Gardner Minshew today and good spirits of course about 0:12:55.960 --> 0:12:58.760 the whole deal. That's really nothing. Nick hasn't been around here, 0:12:58.840 --> 0:13:00.480 but it's just different seen in back on the field, 0:13:01.280 --> 0:13:06.160 and that's real. I mean it's it's every quarterback every 0:13:06.160 --> 0:13:10.000 time he's been a controversy throughout the history of time. Um, 0:13:10.080 --> 0:13:13.840 what Gardner just said has been what has been said publicly. Oh, 0:13:13.880 --> 0:13:15.520 you're all on the same page the room, we're all 0:13:15.520 --> 0:13:19.320 about winning. But with these two, I don't pretend to 0:13:19.400 --> 0:13:22.400 know Nick that well. He just got here in marching 0:13:22.440 --> 0:13:25.040 Pintendo and Gardener that well. But I never heard anything 0:13:25.080 --> 0:13:27.720 to make me think that those guys wouldn't be supportive 0:13:27.720 --> 0:13:30.880 of each other. It's probably about as as good as 0:13:30.920 --> 0:13:33.920 situation as you could have to have two quarterbacks in 0:13:33.920 --> 0:13:37.000 that situation. Folds has proven over the length of his career, 0:13:37.080 --> 0:13:39.400 especially the last couple of years, that he can handle 0:13:40.040 --> 0:13:43.360 being the backup if he were to be Minshow you know, 0:13:43.400 --> 0:13:45.480 you've been around and I can't imagine it being a 0:13:45.679 --> 0:13:48.840 you know, they all want to play. Within the context 0:13:48.840 --> 0:13:51.000 of that being true, I think both these guys could 0:13:51.000 --> 0:13:54.120 handle it very well and be a positive. We'll hear 0:13:54.120 --> 0:13:57.080 from Leonard for that. He's scheduled to speak on Thursday, 0:13:57.440 --> 0:13:59.959 and it's all as we say each week, it's it's 0:14:00.000 --> 0:14:02.280 always interesting to see what he has to say. He's 0:14:02.400 --> 0:14:05.040 now leading the a f C and rushing and just 0:14:05.080 --> 0:14:07.120 talking to some of the offensive linemen today in the 0:14:07.160 --> 0:14:10.480 locker room, they feel like they have some little something 0:14:10.520 --> 0:14:12.640 going in the run game now, especially up front. It 0:14:12.640 --> 0:14:15.680 took him a little bit to get going as an offense, 0:14:15.720 --> 0:14:17.680 I think with that, and Leonard said that last week 0:14:17.679 --> 0:14:19.640 that he just, you know, he was a little bit 0:14:19.960 --> 0:14:22.440 there was something the first few weeks to just didn't 0:14:22.440 --> 0:14:24.600 he he didn't say slap for good his wording on 0:14:24.640 --> 0:14:27.240 it last week in the locker room in Cincinnati, but 0:14:27.320 --> 0:14:29.880 it just wasn't as good as it was the last 0:14:29.960 --> 0:14:32.760 three or four weeks. And now they've broken through here 0:14:32.760 --> 0:14:34.480 and you see the numbers on your screen what Leonard 0:14:34.520 --> 0:14:37.960 has done. But some of those guys up front said today, hey, 0:14:37.960 --> 0:14:40.000 we're finally starting to get in the groove. Even with 0:14:40.040 --> 0:14:41.840 some of the changes up front that they've had the 0:14:41.960 --> 0:14:44.760 rotating guards on the right side and Cam in and 0:14:44.760 --> 0:14:47.440 out of the lineup on the left side. It's just 0:14:47.520 --> 0:14:49.600 taken a little while, but it's finally starting to get 0:14:49.600 --> 0:14:54.880 moving on offense. Well, it would have struggled for a time. 0:14:55.320 --> 0:15:00.560 You had John Taylor's a rookie camerabin and didn't play 0:15:00.640 --> 0:15:02.320 last year, come off from a c L. None of 0:15:02.320 --> 0:15:05.760 them played together during preseason. Even if they had played 0:15:05.840 --> 0:15:09.400 during preseason, they don't play enough games anymore to get 0:15:09.600 --> 0:15:12.680 continuity in the running game early. You also had a 0:15:12.680 --> 0:15:16.200 tight end situation. Swain was new, Oliver was new. Uh 0:15:16.440 --> 0:15:19.160 Swain I believe missed some time during the preseason if 0:15:19.200 --> 0:15:25.040 I remember, and so it was it was. It was foolhardy, 0:15:25.080 --> 0:15:26.480 if you will, to think they were going to come 0:15:26.480 --> 0:15:29.400 out and be as good Week one as they might 0:15:29.440 --> 0:15:32.360 be in Week six or seven. Doug sort of hinted 0:15:32.400 --> 0:15:35.080 at this a couple of weeks back after I think 0:15:35.120 --> 0:15:38.920 it was after the week six after New Orleans, where 0:15:38.920 --> 0:15:41.880 he thought, you know, he was seeing stuff on tape 0:15:41.880 --> 0:15:45.080 that he liked. When there were breakdowns, it was one guy, 0:15:45.160 --> 0:15:47.360 not the whole thing. People kind of pooh pooed that 0:15:47.360 --> 0:15:51.560 and said, oh, well, you should be better. One breakdown 0:15:51.840 --> 0:15:54.040 is enough to kill a whole running game. All that's true, 0:15:54.600 --> 0:15:56.560 But Doug doesn't use the both smoke and stuff like that. 0:15:57.160 --> 0:16:00.000 And you can tell in the results, you can tell 0:16:00.000 --> 0:16:03.200 how hard Leonards running. I said this a few times, JP. 0:16:04.040 --> 0:16:07.240 Somewhere during Minshe Mania. You remember you were caught up 0:16:07.240 --> 0:16:09.800 in Minshe Mania. Remember they were yeah, I mean, but 0:16:09.920 --> 0:16:12.560 you were out. You were out in the bars mish 0:16:12.640 --> 0:16:16.840 man uh. And then there was the Ramsey thing that 0:16:17.200 --> 0:16:20.080 we were all caught up in. Somewhere during all that, 0:16:21.400 --> 0:16:26.640 for Net got really really good and became the player 0:16:26.720 --> 0:16:31.680 that they drafted, and they got back to being the 0:16:31.680 --> 0:16:34.200 team they wanted to be, which this seems always wanted 0:16:34.200 --> 0:16:36.880 to be a running team during all that other stuff. 0:16:37.640 --> 0:16:41.080 They they got the offense to what they wanted it 0:16:41.120 --> 0:16:42.880 to be. Now let's see I they can go forward 0:16:42.920 --> 0:16:46.280 with it. But all of a sudden, he's the number 0:16:46.320 --> 0:16:48.840 four overall, picking the draft that you drafted, leading the 0:16:48.840 --> 0:16:50.600 a f C and rushing sort of the identity of 0:16:50.600 --> 0:16:55.040 the team. And before those two storyline started developing, you know, 0:16:55.480 --> 0:16:59.080 in week two when we went into that phase, you'd 0:16:59.200 --> 0:17:00.920 never thought that had been the case six weeks later. 0:17:01.080 --> 0:17:04.960 So while we weren't looking, he became the guy you 0:17:05.000 --> 0:17:09.879 weren't looking. J. I don't think anybody was. Everybody was 0:17:09.920 --> 0:17:13.520 distracted by everything else. Yeah, credit to him because as 0:17:13.560 --> 0:17:16.200 we've gone over and over on this show, you would 0:17:16.240 --> 0:17:21.080 have never thought on August one that Leonard Fornett be 0:17:21.119 --> 0:17:23.600 leaving the league in rushing, that he'd be basically a 0:17:23.640 --> 0:17:25.800 team leader. Yeah, the team leader that I think they 0:17:25.800 --> 0:17:28.760 wanted him to be last year when he was captain. Uh, 0:17:28.800 --> 0:17:31.359 every sort of lampooned him being the captain last years, 0:17:31.359 --> 0:17:33.240 all the stuff he went through, Well he was the captain. 0:17:33.240 --> 0:17:37.439 Now you wouldn't blink an eye at You'd think good choice. 0:17:37.480 --> 0:17:40.840 So he's the guy now that they hoped he'd be 0:17:40.880 --> 0:17:43.440 all along. And credit to him because I didn't think 0:17:43.440 --> 0:17:46.080 he could do plenty to discuss in this program. Will 0:17:46.119 --> 0:17:48.639 come back in a moment with the FC South standings 0:17:48.640 --> 0:17:50.840 and the schedule ahead of in the division.

Actually no, because one 0:21:02.000 --> 0:21:04.960 of mine's DJ chark that's fine.

Uh. He has been limited the last couple 0:21:24.640 --> 0:21:30.960 of weeks, uh by basically what happens in the NFL. 0:21:31.040 --> 0:21:34.080 He he had five good games, five really good games.
