First off, you know, uh, we 0:00:50.000 --> 0:00:53.280 live in a technology age. Yes, I know, we're live. Yeah, 0:00:53.360 --> 0:00:56.240 we got it's a bit different than the show sometimes. 0:00:56.840 --> 0:01:02.000 Oh but look man, ex Trinity, we gotta get it together. 0:01:02.600 --> 0:01:05.199 We gotta get it together. My telephone line is out. 0:01:05.440 --> 0:01:07.800 Oh no, we're on the cell phone now and that's 0:01:07.840 --> 0:01:10.800 technology for it happens. It's fine, and we we're glad 0:01:10.840 --> 0:01:13.399 to have thanks for battling through. But you know, you're 0:01:13.480 --> 0:01:15.759 you're a consiment pro. You're able to make that adjusting. 0:01:15.840 --> 0:01:18.960 So I appreciate your boss, appreciate you coming on this 0:01:19.040 --> 0:01:22.840 program today. UM, I gotta start with the dress rehearsal week. 0:01:22.880 --> 0:01:25.560 As a former player, I mean back obviously when you 0:01:25.600 --> 0:01:28.720 were playing in the early days, especially um, you guys 0:01:28.760 --> 0:01:32.280 played pretty much every week in the preseason. How much 0:01:32.400 --> 0:01:36.039 time did you need as a starting running back for 0:01:36.120 --> 0:01:39.560 you personally to be ready for the season. Every play 0:01:39.680 --> 0:01:42.080 was griffin and ripping. I tried to score a touchdown 0:01:42.120 --> 0:01:44.920 every time I got the ball JP and sometimes people 0:01:44.959 --> 0:01:48.080 didn't like that, but I wanted to in those first 0:01:48.080 --> 0:01:51.200 two preseason games, I wanted to be Look, let me 0:01:51.240 --> 0:01:54.080 show you what I got, Coach. I'm precy, I'm mid 0:01:54.120 --> 0:01:57.480 season ready. Take me out of the game, man, you know, 0:01:58.040 --> 0:02:00.920 and uh, I really try to do something big. And 0:02:00.960 --> 0:02:03.440 I hope the lineman had, you know, created a couple 0:02:03.440 --> 0:02:05.640 of holes early so we can we can be on 0:02:05.680 --> 0:02:08.959 the sideline eating the sun flower season, sneaking, eating the 0:02:09.000 --> 0:02:12.040 hot dogs. You know, that's what we were after after 0:02:12.080 --> 0:02:15.919 the first first two preseason games, the dress rehearsals were 0:02:15.919 --> 0:02:18.800 a bit different. This is when you're completely locked in. 0:02:19.320 --> 0:02:24.560 You're treating this game identically as it's a regular season game, 0:02:24.880 --> 0:02:27.920 because you want to go through everything that you tend 0:02:27.960 --> 0:02:30.760 to go through, you know, as a veteran, uh for 0:02:30.760 --> 0:02:33.840 for preparation for a regular season game. So for me, 0:02:33.880 --> 0:02:38.200 it's making sure I warmed up at the right time. UH, 0:02:38.320 --> 0:02:41.320 I had my the trainers stretching at the right time. 0:02:42.040 --> 0:02:44.280 I want to make sure I would get my back 0:02:44.680 --> 0:02:47.160 you know, stepped on in the in the locker room 0:02:47.200 --> 0:02:49.200 at the right time. So I was going through my 0:02:49.360 --> 0:02:54.240 routine uh at the third preseason game, UH to start out, 0:02:54.800 --> 0:02:59.200 And but my visualization techniques was all about the same 0:02:59.240 --> 0:03:01.040 as what I would do during the regular season. So 0:03:01.080 --> 0:03:05.440 I really treated that game and and and the pre 0:03:05.560 --> 0:03:09.160 game part in the whole entire piece as if it's 0:03:09.200 --> 0:03:11.480 a regular season game. And I attacked it that way 0:03:11.520 --> 0:03:14.200 once ball kicked off, and I really paid attention to, 0:03:14.919 --> 0:03:19.000 uh the situations of the game, you know, I mean, 0:03:19.120 --> 0:03:22.440 carries them, getting early tempo, when they hit it, when 0:03:22.480 --> 0:03:24.880 not to hit it, all that stuff. So if you're 0:03:24.880 --> 0:03:28.480 gonna be a pro. This game was a very serious 0:03:28.520 --> 0:03:32.040 approach and I needed it. I really needed it to 0:03:32.240 --> 0:03:35.320 make sure from a confidence standpoint, I was ready to 0:03:35.360 --> 0:03:37.480 go for the regular season. What do you want to 0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:40.760 see out of Leonard for NET in Thursday Night's game? 0:03:40.960 --> 0:03:43.440 Since he hasn't played yet in the preseason? How much? 0:03:43.480 --> 0:03:46.160 How long? What do you want to see out of him? Well? 0:03:46.200 --> 0:03:47.560 I want to be able to see him hit that, 0:03:47.600 --> 0:03:51.320 you know, flip the switch because they haven't played. Now 0:03:51.360 --> 0:03:54.640 you go from you know, we're we're we're betting told 0:03:55.120 --> 0:03:58.320 that we're getting game like reps in practice? Are we 0:03:58.400 --> 0:04:01.000 really you know, are we doing in enough and practice? 0:04:01.200 --> 0:04:03.760 I want to see him, you know, be able to 0:04:03.840 --> 0:04:06.520 fIF the switch and say, all right, this is fully live, 0:04:07.440 --> 0:04:10.520 being able to bend his knees, lowers his shoulder, pass, 0:04:10.640 --> 0:04:13.720 run through contact, you know, find those lanes that are 0:04:13.720 --> 0:04:18.520 gonna be there, uh, and create some when some aren't there. 0:04:18.960 --> 0:04:20.560 You know, I just want to make sure it's pat 0:04:20.680 --> 0:04:24.040 level is great. Uh, he's running through contact and getting 0:04:24.080 --> 0:04:27.760 his fields, you know, uh, getting his fields before the 0:04:27.800 --> 0:04:31.360 regular season comes along in the next couple of weeks. Uh. 0:04:31.440 --> 0:04:33.440 And I want to be able to see him when uh, 0:04:33.640 --> 0:04:36.920 when he's in there in passing situations. Uh As, He's 0:04:36.960 --> 0:04:39.640 been in there a bit more through practices third downs, 0:04:40.000 --> 0:04:42.760 He's done some solid pass protections. I want to see 0:04:42.880 --> 0:04:44.440 be able to see a little bit of that because 0:04:44.440 --> 0:04:46.760 I'm pretty sure the Dolphin is gonna have a you know, 0:04:46.800 --> 0:04:49.320 they want to see their blitz packages, the ones. They 0:04:49.320 --> 0:04:51.560 want to see what they have on from the defensive sides. 0:04:51.560 --> 0:04:54.800 So I'm pretty sure a couple of blitz opportunities who arise, 0:04:55.200 --> 0:04:56.640 and so I want to see how to step in 0:04:56.640 --> 0:04:59.760 there and and protect folds. Prior of the Jaguars running 0:04:59.760 --> 0:05:03.400 back A Taylor with us, the Jaguars offensive coordinator John d. 0:05:03.480 --> 0:05:06.640 Filippo gets his starters out there for the first time 0:05:06.720 --> 0:05:09.640 in this preseason, you know, and talking to him the 0:05:09.680 --> 0:05:11.920 other day and hearing his press conference, you know, he 0:05:12.200 --> 0:05:16.000 understands that the performance of this offense is not gonna 0:05:16.040 --> 0:05:18.840 really say what's gonna happen in the regular season, but 0:05:18.880 --> 0:05:21.520 there's gotta be somewhere down in there. You you want 0:05:21.560 --> 0:05:23.880 these guys to perform and have some kind of move 0:05:23.960 --> 0:05:27.400 the ball, have some sustained drives on offense, and and 0:05:27.520 --> 0:05:31.200 show pretty well their first time out there. Of course, 0:05:31.240 --> 0:05:33.799 without a doubt. I mean, that's why they prepare they 0:05:34.080 --> 0:05:37.839 I'm pretty sure in a perfect world, they would like 0:05:37.920 --> 0:05:40.560 to go out there, you know, the first possession of 0:05:40.160 --> 0:05:44.080 the ball game and and and and hit a big play, 0:05:44.520 --> 0:05:46.880 hit a big run maybe to start the game, or 0:05:46.920 --> 0:05:50.000 even a big play with vice versa. Whatever comes first, 0:05:50.040 --> 0:05:52.680 they don't care. They want to see it though, uh. 0:05:52.760 --> 0:05:55.000 And then they want to see it capped off with 0:05:55.040 --> 0:05:58.160 a touchdown. So something like the three or four play, 0:05:58.240 --> 0:06:02.000 big play, big play, decent run, uh, or a big player, 0:06:02.040 --> 0:06:04.719 big player, a nice nice pass pick up and a 0:06:04.800 --> 0:06:07.599 touchdown four or five places right. They would love to 0:06:07.600 --> 0:06:10.960 see that, you know. And then in the second positions possession, 0:06:11.400 --> 0:06:14.240 they would probably want to see let us, uh have 0:06:14.440 --> 0:06:17.920 some sustained drives we were executing third down, because that's 0:06:17.920 --> 0:06:20.880 a big part of it. Let's see how well our 0:06:21.279 --> 0:06:25.280 our quarterbacks and our receivers, you know, let's see if 0:06:25.320 --> 0:06:30.760 they're on the same page with communications with audibles, if summarized, 0:06:31.360 --> 0:06:34.159 and in a few third down conversions. I'm pretty sure 0:06:34.200 --> 0:06:36.480 they would love to, you know, come off the shield 0:06:36.520 --> 0:06:40.080 after the first two possessions with you know, twenty plays 0:06:40.080 --> 0:06:43.880 in the bag and fourteen points, uh, and and again, 0:06:43.920 --> 0:06:46.440 no matter how many plays they put out there, they 0:06:46.520 --> 0:06:50.320 want to see execution, you know, and crunched situations. But 0:06:50.480 --> 0:06:53.000 more importantly jp the thing that we haven't seen the 0:06:53.040 --> 0:06:56.280 first two weeks, the points. They want to see points 0:06:56.960 --> 0:07:00.440 more than anything in the world. They don't care. They 0:07:00.480 --> 0:07:03.520 just want to see points. Offensive coordinator, get it on 0:07:03.560 --> 0:07:06.719 the board somehow in this game against the Miami offense 0:07:06.760 --> 0:07:08.480 and get some points. That's a that's a good one 0:07:08.520 --> 0:07:11.680 their friends offensive line. You know, it sounds like the 0:07:11.960 --> 0:07:15.800 list of players not playing did not include Cam Robinson, 0:07:16.280 --> 0:07:18.560 so by that it sounds like he's gonna get some 0:07:18.640 --> 0:07:20.840 time tomorrow night. I think I'll probably believe it when 0:07:20.840 --> 0:07:22.520 he runs out of the tunnel and he's you know, 0:07:22.640 --> 0:07:25.080 running out of the on the field to start the game. 0:07:25.440 --> 0:07:29.000 But you want your five offensive linemen together at some 0:07:29.040 --> 0:07:32.240 point in the preseason. It seems like maybe not for long, 0:07:32.280 --> 0:07:34.520 but it seems like they might have that tomorrow night. 0:07:34.560 --> 0:07:38.320 How important is that for continuity upfront, not just you know, 0:07:38.320 --> 0:07:40.480 in the run game, but as an offense, to have 0:07:40.560 --> 0:07:44.680 those five guys together, it's pretty important. It's important formula, 0:07:44.800 --> 0:07:49.000 not only the offense, but you know, those those guys 0:07:50.000 --> 0:07:53.080 each guy, the guy next to I'm listening for a 0:07:53.200 --> 0:07:56.600 speciftic voice, you know, a certain pitch. You know, these 0:07:56.640 --> 0:08:00.840 guys have to be able to communicate, especially uh at 0:08:00.840 --> 0:08:04.160 the opponent's home when when it's loud. You know, they 0:08:04.240 --> 0:08:06.040 have to be able to trust each other, know how 0:08:06.640 --> 0:08:11.080 Uh this guy is an overstepper on certain plays, or 0:08:11.120 --> 0:08:13.680 if this guy steps tight you know and and and 0:08:13.880 --> 0:08:17.360 shallow or tight and vertical uh in there you know 0:08:17.600 --> 0:08:21.400 pulls or zone zone stepping or maybe even their past set. 0:08:21.920 --> 0:08:25.520 So it's one of those field things. Um, the gap 0:08:25.560 --> 0:08:28.320 space and you know back in the day, you know, 0:08:28.400 --> 0:08:31.240 pop one and you would have to two ft you know, 0:08:31.280 --> 0:08:35.280 two feet gaps between each lineman. You know, that's still 0:08:35.280 --> 0:08:37.600 a thing. You wouldn't think it would be the case 0:08:37.640 --> 0:08:41.360 in the pros, but these guys really gotta give each 0:08:41.400 --> 0:08:44.680 other space because because of the way they step, you know, 0:08:45.200 --> 0:08:48.760 little things like that that goes unnoticed to the fan, 0:08:49.160 --> 0:08:52.480 to the naked eye. They're huge and and they're huge 0:08:52.480 --> 0:08:55.400 for the guys, and it's huge for the offense of success. 0:08:55.480 --> 0:08:59.520 And then you go from there. It's a confidence for 0:08:59.559 --> 0:09:01.880 the quarter back and for the running backs. If I 0:09:01.880 --> 0:09:05.760 would look up there and Butselly wasn't out there. I'm 0:09:05.800 --> 0:09:08.600 gonna want to trust the guy who's spilling in for him. 0:09:08.640 --> 0:09:10.760 But it's a different thing, you know what I mean. 0:09:11.280 --> 0:09:14.480 It ain't seventy one baby, you know what you're getting 0:09:14.520 --> 0:09:18.160 over there. So, uh, it's a confidence thing for the quarterback. 0:09:19.040 --> 0:09:21.400 In the running backs more so then the receiver. They 0:09:21.400 --> 0:09:23.600 don't care. They just want the ball. They don't even 0:09:23.640 --> 0:09:26.360 care who's throwing it to him half the time until 0:09:26.360 --> 0:09:28.600 it goes in the dirt ten times in front of him. 0:09:28.840 --> 0:09:33.000 Then they cried. But it'll be a good thing to 0:09:33.000 --> 0:09:36.560 see all those guys back from a coaching standpoint, other 0:09:36.600 --> 0:09:40.640 guys on offense, looking around, just seeing the guys. But 0:09:40.960 --> 0:09:44.559 you know, the band, it's back in town and they 0:09:44.600 --> 0:09:46.280 want to be with each other. Man. That's what the 0:09:46.320 --> 0:09:49.400 starters want to be with. The starters, Brian. The Jaguars 0:09:49.480 --> 0:09:51.880 running back Fred Taylor with us a few minutes left 0:09:51.880 --> 0:09:54.160 with you here, Fred, Let's flip it the defense. Now. 0:09:54.400 --> 0:09:57.320 Had we heard earlier on this show from Klaas Campbell 0:09:57.320 --> 0:09:59.040 when I asked him the other day in the locker room, 0:09:59.080 --> 0:10:01.560 how many reps? How many how much time do you 0:10:01.640 --> 0:10:04.560 need in this game? And he said well needs a 0:10:04.600 --> 0:10:07.839 strong word, and I don't really need any time. I 0:10:07.880 --> 0:10:11.680 would want a couple drives here there. If you're Doug 0:10:11.679 --> 0:10:14.040 Maron Fred, we're gonna call you the head coach for 0:10:14.080 --> 0:10:17.280 this game. How long are you playing the front line? 0:10:17.840 --> 0:10:21.520 Defensive line starters in this game? And got Way Campbell 0:10:22.040 --> 0:10:25.679 guys like that, I'm gonna play him up until at 0:10:25.720 --> 0:10:29.280 least two possessions, two or three possessions into the third quarter. 0:10:29.679 --> 0:10:32.280 I mean, you've been on vacation, you know, the past 0:10:32.320 --> 0:10:34.000 couple of weeks. So I'm gonna see what I got 0:10:34.040 --> 0:10:35.880 out of the group. I want to see what my 0:10:36.040 --> 0:10:38.520 rotations look like. And I want to see what's the 0:10:38.600 --> 0:10:41.360 best group that I can put out there, you know, 0:10:41.480 --> 0:10:44.360 when the team presents me with sub package, and I 0:10:44.360 --> 0:10:46.199 want to be able to drill the rookie, the rookie 0:10:46.640 --> 0:10:49.880 and and my second year guy and Tavin Bryant. I 0:10:49.920 --> 0:10:51.640 want to be able to put you know, find a 0:10:51.760 --> 0:10:56.480 nice personnel grouping in the rotation. Who can I put 0:10:56.480 --> 0:10:59.520 out there when this guy runs out tired after being 0:10:59.559 --> 0:11:03.319 out there, you know on a twelve played drive, who 0:11:03.320 --> 0:11:04.920 cannot put out there? If they come out here and 0:11:05.080 --> 0:11:07.520 know how to officen you know, I just have to 0:11:08.160 --> 0:11:11.080 from a comfort level. I have to see these guys. 0:11:11.160 --> 0:11:13.439 Yeah it looks good on paper, but I need to 0:11:13.480 --> 0:11:16.160 see it. I need to see what level of energy 0:11:16.160 --> 0:11:18.880 I'm gonna get from the group, and what type of production, 0:11:19.080 --> 0:11:22.160 and who's gonna lead who when the real leaders aren't 0:11:22.200 --> 0:11:24.920 on the field, you know. So it's a because there's 0:11:24.920 --> 0:11:27.960 so many many dynamics to that group and so many 0:11:28.000 --> 0:11:32.720 different uh pairings that you could put together depending on 0:11:32.800 --> 0:11:35.560 what the offense presents to you. I need to see 0:11:35.559 --> 0:11:38.400 it as a head coach, and I do agree with 0:11:38.520 --> 0:11:41.440 Kells in in a small sense that you know, he 0:11:41.520 --> 0:11:44.200 said he doesn't necessarily need it. I'm pretty sure he 0:11:44.280 --> 0:11:48.839 was being more sarcastic than than anything, because he's a if. 0:11:48.880 --> 0:11:52.200 No one else in the entire NFL isn't. He's a pro, 0:11:52.679 --> 0:11:55.360 and he's gonna need his fields. You know. He wants 0:11:55.360 --> 0:11:58.480 to go through that uh but like he said, he 0:11:58.600 --> 0:12:01.880 wants to get out there and get some snap because 0:12:02.120 --> 0:12:05.079 that's what needs to be done. He's been away from 0:12:05.200 --> 0:12:08.400 the action. They've all been away from the real action, 0:12:08.800 --> 0:12:11.200 so they should all want it, you know. So I'm 0:12:11.240 --> 0:12:14.080 looking forward to seeing that group along with Josh Allen 0:12:14.160 --> 0:12:16.640 with the returning starters from a year ago. I can't 0:12:16.640 --> 0:12:19.680 wait to see him get excited running on that field 0:12:20.000 --> 0:12:22.360 with that, with the ones, the guys who are going 0:12:22.440 --> 0:12:24.400 to start. I'm ready to see what he's gonna bring 0:12:24.440 --> 0:12:26.720 to the table. Let's see some sacks, will see some 0:12:26.840 --> 0:12:29.840 quarterback pressures, some heads. Let's get to the quarterback they 0:12:29.880 --> 0:12:31.280 we haven't been able to really do that in the 0:12:31.280 --> 0:12:34.480 preseason yet as a whole with the second and third 0:12:34.520 --> 0:12:37.960 groups here.

And Amphitheater one of 0:16:51.640 --> 0:16:54.560 a kind too in the NFL. No other stadium has 0:16:54.600 --> 0:16:56.960 an Amphitheater connected to it like the one that they 0:16:57.000 --> 0:16:59.200 do and at you know t I a Bank stadium. 0:16:59.240 --> 0:17:01.520 So I love the place. Love talking with you, hope 0:17:01.560 --> 0:17:04.200 everything as well as well. Man. And I can't remember 0:17:04.240 --> 0:17:06.879 I saw you at a show. Uh, this is probably 0:17:06.880 --> 0:17:09.560 a year or two ago and I was it too 0:17:09.600 --> 0:17:11.760 Desky trucks. Yeah, they come through every year. I couldn't 0:17:11.760 --> 0:17:14.080 remember which one it was, which time it was, So 0:17:14.160 --> 0:17:15.880 it's been a little bit, but it's good too. Good 0:17:15.920 --> 0:17:18.760 to have you always. I appreciate your time as always. 0:17:18.760 --> 0:17:20.720 Here we'll get to the wrestling stuff coming up. You 0:17:20.720 --> 0:17:22.679 mentioned the Fight for the Fall and let's start with 0:17:22.720 --> 0:17:25.920 a little football though, and you know there's a trend 0:17:25.920 --> 0:17:28.199 in the league now alex of the starter is not 0:17:28.240 --> 0:17:31.959 even seeing the field the first week especially, but a 0:17:31.960 --> 0:17:33.800 lot of times the first two weeks of the preseason 0:17:33.840 --> 0:17:36.760 in the in the Jaguars, um, look at it here, 0:17:36.880 --> 0:17:39.840 they're gonna go tomorrow night and probably not next week. 0:17:39.920 --> 0:17:43.920 So this is kind of trending towards not having a 0:17:43.960 --> 0:17:45.800 lot of starters out there and the bang for the 0:17:45.800 --> 0:17:48.160 buck for the people coming to games and all that 0:17:48.920 --> 0:17:52.160 is this gonna are they gonna trim this preseason at 0:17:52.160 --> 0:17:54.520 some point? Where is this leading down the road here? 0:17:55.560 --> 0:17:57.440 I think too dangling that carrot in front of the 0:17:57.520 --> 0:18:01.080 NFL Players Association saying that we'll play fewer preseason games, 0:18:01.320 --> 0:18:03.480 you'll have a chance to make more money with more 0:18:03.520 --> 0:18:06.679 regular season games. You know, there's an NFL Network report 0:18:07.240 --> 0:18:10.040 that you know there's a possibility three preseason games and 0:18:10.080 --> 0:18:13.280 then you add another playoff game, in other words, making 0:18:13.320 --> 0:18:15.960 it now where the number two seed, rather than getting 0:18:15.960 --> 0:18:19.520 to buy, would end up having a play that first week, uh, 0:18:19.600 --> 0:18:22.439 you know, and you'd roll from there, so it's you know, 0:18:22.640 --> 0:18:25.040 I'm very you know, and you'd add a seventh team 0:18:25.200 --> 0:18:27.920 essentially another playoff team in and you then have seven 0:18:28.000 --> 0:18:32.600 against two, three against six and four against five, and 0:18:32.640 --> 0:18:35.080 so you'd have you know, to to two. You could 0:18:35.119 --> 0:18:37.640 divide the games, you know, three, you know, there's three 0:18:37.720 --> 0:18:40.080 on Saturday, three on Sunday. They've been floating on Monday 0:18:40.160 --> 0:18:42.840 night games, Friday night games, all these different things. But 0:18:42.920 --> 0:18:45.240 you know, again, do the NFL players is this something 0:18:45.280 --> 0:18:47.280 that they want? So far, they've been reticent. They fill 0:18:47.359 --> 0:18:49.879 sixteen games is enough, and a lot of them believe, 0:18:49.960 --> 0:18:52.600 and I think rightfully so based upon the way that 0:18:52.640 --> 0:18:56.280 the coaches are handling the preseason, why do they need 0:18:56.359 --> 0:18:58.280 to add more regular season games? If they're not going 0:18:58.359 --> 0:19:01.480 to play in the preseason games, who care? Right, they'll 0:19:01.480 --> 0:19:04.880 show up, They'll stand around, they'll watch, you know, I mean, 0:19:04.920 --> 0:19:07.200 and that's exactly what's been happening with the Jaguars. I 0:19:07.200 --> 0:19:09.959 don't know how to evaluate this team when I'm watching 0:19:10.000 --> 0:19:12.800 you know, four quarters of Gardner minshew, I don't really know. 0:19:14.640 --> 0:19:16.159 You can't, I mean, you know, and I'm not at 0:19:16.160 --> 0:19:18.080 practice every day, so I mean, I can't see the 0:19:18.119 --> 0:19:20.639 ones on the ones. But what's what they've found? And 0:19:20.680 --> 0:19:23.399 it's interesting talking to Bill Pollyon about this from serious 0:19:23.520 --> 0:19:25.480 X having. Of course, his son Chris works for the 0:19:25.560 --> 0:19:28.040 Jaguars under Dave Caldwell. You know how he was a 0:19:28.119 --> 0:19:30.800 colts camp and what he found out, and I think 0:19:30.800 --> 0:19:33.919 it reaffirmed some things he suspected. But essentially, the people 0:19:33.960 --> 0:19:36.960 that do the tracking of player data in other words, 0:19:37.000 --> 0:19:39.120 like the way that a you know, number of snaps 0:19:39.160 --> 0:19:42.080 received and how much work are you getting, they've determined 0:19:42.119 --> 0:19:43.760 that you can almost get as much good work in 0:19:43.800 --> 0:19:47.920 a scrimmage as you can in a preseason game. So 0:19:48.280 --> 0:19:50.520 they found ways now, you know, and Matt Neggie did 0:19:50.520 --> 0:19:53.480 it when Chicago scrimmage against the New York Giants. You know, 0:19:53.520 --> 0:19:55.160 they were able to get some really good work done 0:19:55.160 --> 0:19:56.800 to the point that he didn't feel he had to 0:19:56.880 --> 0:20:00.240 play his quarter you know, his starters, and he wasn't 0:20:00.240 --> 0:20:02.679 definitely gonna put Travisky at risk. What you do is 0:20:02.680 --> 0:20:04.959 when you got that quarterback in the non contact jersey, 0:20:05.000 --> 0:20:07.440 you you you know, eliminate really the risk of any 0:20:07.440 --> 0:20:10.280 sort of major injury outside of something flukey a lot 0:20:10.280 --> 0:20:13.320 of Teddy Bridgewater. So teams have found let's do this. 0:20:13.640 --> 0:20:15.920 You saw what Cleveland baker Mayfield last week. They thought 0:20:15.960 --> 0:20:18.040 he got enough good working against the Colts, so they 0:20:18.080 --> 0:20:20.359 didn't play the starters. Now you see Frank Reich saying, 0:20:20.400 --> 0:20:22.320 you know what, and he said this earlier today, I 0:20:22.320 --> 0:20:24.320 don't think I'm gonna play my guys. So you're seeing 0:20:24.359 --> 0:20:26.679 it across the league. You still have some old school coaches, 0:20:26.920 --> 0:20:29.240 you know, Vic Fangio, Andy Reid. They're gonna play it 0:20:29.440 --> 0:20:31.320 where their guys go a little bit more. That's how 0:20:31.320 --> 0:20:34.399 they run their programs. But an increasing number of coaches, 0:20:34.480 --> 0:20:37.520 especially newer coaches, just figure we're not gonna get much 0:20:37.600 --> 0:20:40.160 out of this work that we can't get in a scrimmage. 0:20:40.320 --> 0:20:43.120 Let's stick with the scrimmaging and try to mitigate injury risk. Yeah, 0:20:43.160 --> 0:20:46.679 and if you're a starting quarterback. You know Pete Prisco, 0:20:46.960 --> 0:20:49.000 you know him, you've heard of him. Told the story 0:20:49.040 --> 0:20:51.840 the other that he talked to Philip Rivers and they 0:20:51.880 --> 0:20:54.600 had a practice against another team where he got forty 0:20:54.760 --> 0:20:58.000 throws in one of those practices. Well, in a preseason 0:20:58.080 --> 0:21:00.719 game that week, he would have probably had five throws, 0:21:00.920 --> 0:21:02.680 you know. So he's getting more. Not that he needs 0:21:02.680 --> 0:21:04.800 to work, but that's just an example of how much 0:21:04.840 --> 0:21:06.919 work you can do against the team on a practice field. 0:21:07.200 --> 0:21:09.720 And it's safe and then you're you know, because they're 0:21:09.720 --> 0:21:11.680 not gonna go a full quarter in one of those 0:21:11.720 --> 0:21:14.719 first preseason games as a starting group, right. I mean, 0:21:15.160 --> 0:21:18.120 but every team is different, right in terms of where 0:21:18.119 --> 0:21:20.760 they're at. For example, a team like the Arizona Cardinals. 0:21:20.800 --> 0:21:22.720 You know, when it comes to Kyler Murray and trying 0:21:22.720 --> 0:21:25.120 to fast track his development, you love to get him 0:21:25.119 --> 0:21:27.840 into a game setting actually where there are some things 0:21:27.840 --> 0:21:30.040 that you're just not gonna be able to simulate. Teams that, 0:21:30.119 --> 0:21:32.040 I mean, that sounds goofy with teams with you know, 0:21:32.080 --> 0:21:36.960 special teams very rare. You have full speed everyone just 0:21:37.040 --> 0:21:40.440 hauling butt down field type special teams were in scrimmages. 0:21:40.560 --> 0:21:43.199 It just usually does. It's hard to simulate that. I 0:21:43.200 --> 0:21:45.560 think for some veteran teams, teams that are acclimated with 0:21:45.600 --> 0:21:48.240 a certain system, maybe you have familiarity with a coach, 0:21:48.280 --> 0:21:50.359 it's one thing, but there's others. If you're a team 0:21:50.359 --> 0:21:52.879 with a first time coordinator, you know, you want to 0:21:52.880 --> 0:21:54.960 be able to work on something. So I think there's 0:21:54.960 --> 0:21:57.840 no one size fits all answer, But I do think 0:21:57.840 --> 0:22:01.080 teams are moving more towards let's scrimmage together and and 0:22:01.119 --> 0:22:03.959 we'll roll from there and then we'll use the preseason games, 0:22:04.200 --> 0:22:08.240 you know, judiciously if you will, to try to see talent. 0:22:08.280 --> 0:22:10.239 And of course, when it comes to the fans, I 0:22:10.240 --> 0:22:13.440 feel for people who buy season tickets because you're essentially 0:22:13.480 --> 0:22:16.399 being asked to pay for two games where you're seeing 0:22:16.520 --> 0:22:19.680 a subpar NFL product. I understand that it's an incredible 0:22:19.720 --> 0:22:23.560 evaluation tool for some teams. I understand careers around the line. 0:22:23.600 --> 0:22:26.600 I respect the game, I respect the talent evaluators who 0:22:26.600 --> 0:22:29.600 can't get enough film to watch people. But when you 0:22:29.680 --> 0:22:32.320 charge people full price for these types of things, it's 0:22:32.320 --> 0:22:34.679 a tough pill to swallow for Elite that claims its 0:22:34.720 --> 0:22:37.680 fan friendly, you know. I just hope that there's maybe 0:22:37.680 --> 0:22:40.320 some remedy in the future where the amount that's charged 0:22:40.359 --> 0:22:43.000 for these games is greatly reduced compared to having to 0:22:43.000 --> 0:22:46.439 pay for regular regular season price in the preseason. Alex 0:22:46.480 --> 0:22:49.560 Marvez with us from Serious x M, NFL Radio and 0:22:49.680 --> 0:22:54.240 All Elite Wrestling. New offensive coordinator, new quarterbacks, and new 0:22:54.280 --> 0:22:58.280 faces on offense around here, Alex, what is this offense 0:22:58.359 --> 0:23:00.520 going to look like Week one against in the City. 0:23:00.560 --> 0:23:03.080 What can you expect from from fulls and some of 0:23:03.119 --> 0:23:06.160 the new faces and d Filippo and because there's really 0:23:06.160 --> 0:23:07.800 hasn't been an idea of what it's going to be 0:23:07.880 --> 0:23:10.520 like that, well, I think it's gonna be a lot 0:23:10.600 --> 0:23:12.720 of Leonard Fournette if if you would, you know, if 0:23:12.720 --> 0:23:14.960 you continue to read the press clippings and you sort 0:23:14.960 --> 0:23:16.920 of see where this is going for Net out of 0:23:16.920 --> 0:23:20.080 the backfield, for Net being a workhorse, you know type 0:23:20.119 --> 0:23:23.200 running back. This was the vision for the previous Jacksonville 0:23:23.240 --> 0:23:26.040 Jaguar's offensive coordinator, but it never came to pass, and 0:23:26.040 --> 0:23:29.200 that was largely because of Leonard Fournette with injury, you 0:23:29.359 --> 0:23:33.120 lack of professionalism on his part, lack of preparation, all 0:23:33.119 --> 0:23:35.159 of those things, you know, running off the bench and 0:23:35.359 --> 0:23:37.560 getting into a brawl up in Buffalo, you name it. 0:23:37.600 --> 0:23:39.639 I mean, these types of things. It's not you know, 0:23:39.680 --> 0:23:42.080 we love fighting in a ew not so much when 0:23:42.119 --> 0:23:44.080 it comes to getting a guy ejected so we can't 0:23:44.119 --> 0:23:47.399 play the following week. So does Martin? Does you know? 0:23:47.480 --> 0:23:50.560 Leonard Fournette realized what a pivotal season it is for 0:23:50.640 --> 0:23:52.960 him in and he told serious x M on the 0:23:52.960 --> 0:23:55.520 training camp tour that he's you know, eliminated some of 0:23:55.560 --> 0:23:58.480 the influences some friends that maybe you know, he didn't. 0:23:58.760 --> 0:24:01.359 You know, he realized these aren't positive people in my life, 0:24:01.680 --> 0:24:03.880 so let me, you know, move on from them. How 0:24:03.920 --> 0:24:06.119 serious does he take this sport, because he's really on 0:24:06.200 --> 0:24:08.119 the verge of being out of Florida's first coach. To 0:24:08.160 --> 0:24:10.280 my opinion, things don't work out this year. You're not 0:24:10.280 --> 0:24:12.159 going to see a rookie option get picked up, and 0:24:12.320 --> 0:24:14.600 you'll see the Jaguars go in another direction. And it's 0:24:14.600 --> 0:24:17.080 a painful loss to have to write off if this 0:24:17.160 --> 0:24:19.080 is the case, because this is a Jags team that 0:24:19.080 --> 0:24:22.160 that passed on Patrick Mahomes, that passed on Deshaun Watson, 0:24:22.400 --> 0:24:25.800 two quarterbacks readily available at that number four overall pick. 0:24:25.840 --> 0:24:27.439 Instead they go with Leonard for Nett and he has 0:24:27.520 --> 0:24:29.720 yet to live up to what they drafted him for. 0:24:30.000 --> 0:24:32.000 You know, I don't know what John d. Philippo learned 0:24:32.000 --> 0:24:34.080 on the job last year with the Minnesota Vikings. This 0:24:34.200 --> 0:24:37.159 offense was so out of out of whack in Minnesota, 0:24:37.240 --> 0:24:39.840 and talking to the people up there, they just believed 0:24:39.840 --> 0:24:43.080 that they believe. For example, Dalvin Cook was healthy second 0:24:43.080 --> 0:24:45.040 half of the season, he just wouldn't call running place. 0:24:45.320 --> 0:24:48.600 He got very past happy and that's not and That's 0:24:48.600 --> 0:24:51.800 what's so strange about the hiring of John D Philippo 0:24:51.920 --> 0:24:53.960 under Doug Morone. You look at a team that says 0:24:54.000 --> 0:24:56.560 we want to be a smash mouth type team. They 0:24:56.600 --> 0:24:59.400 base their signings in the two thousand and eighteen offseason 0:24:59.400 --> 0:25:02.040 with that Andrew Norwell at left guard, I mean, one 0:25:02.040 --> 0:25:04.840 of the premier run blockers in the NFL. You look 0:25:04.880 --> 0:25:06.480 at a team that they just wanted to pound the 0:25:06.560 --> 0:25:09.440 rock and then you hire the guy who pounded the 0:25:09.520 --> 0:25:13.200 rock the least of anyone in two thousand and eighteen. 0:25:13.520 --> 0:25:17.320 Did John D Filippo evolve as a play caller? And 0:25:17.680 --> 0:25:20.080 we'll find out. You know, I like Nick Foles. I 0:25:20.080 --> 0:25:21.720 like him a lot. I think that he's a leader. 0:25:21.920 --> 0:25:23.359 I think you can do a lot of things that 0:25:23.359 --> 0:25:26.560 that Blake Bortles can't. And I mean I like Blake personally. 0:25:26.600 --> 0:25:29.679 I just realized he was limited as a quarterback. I 0:25:29.720 --> 0:25:32.040 just think there's just a lot of questions about, you know, guys, 0:25:32.080 --> 0:25:35.359 are they going to step up their game? And you 0:25:35.400 --> 0:25:37.280 look at some of the at the offensive line right now, 0:25:37.320 --> 0:25:41.960 Cedric of bwiehe at right tackle, and then Cam Robinson, 0:25:42.000 --> 0:25:43.440 you know, in his recovery, is he going to be 0:25:43.480 --> 0:25:45.199 ready for the start of the regular season. Are you're 0:25:45.200 --> 0:25:47.879 gonna be playing someone else at the left tackle spot. 0:25:47.920 --> 0:25:50.439 I just I don't worry so much about the defense. 0:25:50.480 --> 0:25:52.280 I mean, they're gonna be solid all the way around. 0:25:52.560 --> 0:25:54.600 They I don't think there were a special unit last 0:25:54.680 --> 0:25:56.359 year JP. I think they really you know, that was 0:25:56.400 --> 0:25:58.440 the one thing. They were a good unit, but everyone 0:25:58.440 --> 0:26:01.680 got spoiled in and expected the stars in the moon 0:26:01.720 --> 0:26:04.520 from this group ineen, and it just didn't happen. I 0:26:04.560 --> 0:26:06.280 think the pieces are there to have a really good 0:26:06.320 --> 0:26:09.359 year on defense, but again, this offense too many questions 0:26:09.359 --> 0:26:11.119 for me to tell you that the problems are fixed, 0:26:11.320 --> 0:26:13.680 and again I don't know exactly what to expect based 0:26:13.720 --> 0:26:16.080 upon the history of the people involved. It sounds like, 0:26:16.320 --> 0:26:18.320 by the way, offensive lin Jawan Taylor is going to 0:26:18.400 --> 0:26:20.800 get that right tackle job for the Jaguars the rookie. 0:26:21.160 --> 0:26:23.920 They gotta update that depth chart man. That's right, and 0:26:24.160 --> 0:26:26.400 it's week three, so you might get an updated one 0:26:26.400 --> 0:26:29.720 after next week. Alex Marves serious XM Radio with his 0:26:29.800 --> 0:26:34.439 final football thought here. Uh In Gockway had, if you 0:26:34.560 --> 0:26:37.359 hear the story right, had a contract offer and didn't 0:26:37.400 --> 0:26:39.159 sign it. So it sounds like He's playing for his 0:26:39.240 --> 0:26:44.399 fourth year contract number this year. Miles Jack's contract is 0:26:44.480 --> 0:26:46.960 coming up. Jalen Ramsey at some point is going to 0:26:47.080 --> 0:26:50.520 have to get paid by somebody. Where would you prioritize 0:26:50.520 --> 0:26:53.560 those three if you're the Jaguars in got way one, 0:26:53.840 --> 0:26:57.399 Jack two and John Kound of Jalen Ramsey. Guy in 0:26:57.520 --> 0:27:01.720 terms of Jalen looked, he's he's I think when you 0:27:01.760 --> 0:27:04.040 show up to camp the way that you did with 0:27:04.080 --> 0:27:07.239 the whole Brinks truck thing, I just you know what 0:27:07.280 --> 0:27:09.840 I mean. And he didn't have a great year last year. 0:27:10.160 --> 0:27:12.520 That's the whole thing. It's one thing. If Jalen Ramsey 0:27:12.520 --> 0:27:15.960 would have played up to Jalen Ramsey's potential, I mean 0:27:16.000 --> 0:27:18.360 that's you know, gay, then that's fine, and the Jaguars 0:27:18.400 --> 0:27:20.320 don't want to pay you, I get it, you know, 0:27:20.440 --> 0:27:23.480 But he didn't. A. J. Boye was the best cornerback 0:27:23.480 --> 0:27:26.720 on the Jacksonville Jaguars last year. Jalen Ramsey didn't live 0:27:26.800 --> 0:27:29.240 up to that. And that's the thing that's frustrating because 0:27:29.240 --> 0:27:32.199 he can be one of the great players in the NFL, 0:27:32.280 --> 0:27:34.360 not just cornerbacks, I mean one of the great players. 0:27:34.880 --> 0:27:36.720 I think it's smarter of the Jaguars to not make 0:27:36.760 --> 0:27:39.000 that investment in him. Right now, let's see how serious 0:27:39.320 --> 0:27:41.919 he takes this, How serious does he take this season? 0:27:42.160 --> 0:27:43.760 Does he get back to playing at the same level 0:27:43.760 --> 0:27:47.760 that he does? I think in Yannick and Gotqua's case, 0:27:47.880 --> 0:27:51.480 turning down a contract depending upon the numbers and I 0:27:51.520 --> 0:27:55.040 didn't see him, But how do you make back tens 0:27:55.160 --> 0:27:58.720 of millions of dollars over the course of your NFL 0:27:58.840 --> 0:28:02.040 career if you turn and down an extension in two thousand? 0:28:02.840 --> 0:28:04.600 So what it comes down to, right? I mean if 0:28:04.840 --> 0:28:06.920 that first number starts with a two, and I'm talking 0:28:06.960 --> 0:28:09.400 twenty million dollars a year on the average, because that's 0:28:09.400 --> 0:28:12.840 where we're at, even nineteen million dollars a year, I mean, 0:28:12.840 --> 0:28:15.679 how do you make back that type of money playing 0:28:15.680 --> 0:28:17.720 on a contract for a third round pick that is 0:28:17.760 --> 0:28:19.879 paying you what about a million dollars in base salary 0:28:19.920 --> 0:28:23.040 this year about to and change to and change. That's it. 0:28:23.600 --> 0:28:25.159 I mean, how do you make that up over the 0:28:25.160 --> 0:28:27.199 course of your career? And you know, we know what 0:28:27.280 --> 0:28:29.800 the injury rate is in the NFL. I knock on wood, 0:28:29.840 --> 0:28:32.400 nothing happens to him. But man, how do you even 0:28:32.440 --> 0:28:34.800 begin to you know, do you take that risk because 0:28:34.840 --> 0:28:36.240 you're not going to be able to make that type 0:28:36.280 --> 0:28:38.479 of money back probably over the course of your career. 0:28:39.040 --> 0:28:41.320 So you have that and I listen, Miles Jacket is 0:28:41.360 --> 0:28:44.400 an extremely valuable piece of this defense. I just think though, 0:28:44.440 --> 0:28:46.320 and got Way has got to take precedence. We'll see 0:28:46.320 --> 0:28:48.560 what what's up with Miles Jack too, because the mic 0:28:48.600 --> 0:28:51.920 linebacker market. The New York Jets by paying C. J. 0:28:52.120 --> 0:28:55.480 Moseley as much as they did, blowing out the salary slot, 0:28:55.520 --> 0:28:57.600 and there is a triple down effect. The highest paid 0:28:57.600 --> 0:29:00.800 admit and MIC linebacker in the NFL previously was Luke 0:29:00.840 --> 0:29:03.800 Kickle at twelve point three million dollars a season, and 0:29:03.840 --> 0:29:06.719 then the Jets pay C. J. Mosley seventeen million dollars 0:29:06.720 --> 0:29:08.840 a season. You see what Bobby Wagner gets from the 0:29:08.840 --> 0:29:11.840 Seattle Seahawks. Is there a team that says, Okay, we 0:29:11.960 --> 0:29:14.760 have this money available, now we'll pay seventeen million dollars 0:29:14.800 --> 0:29:17.640 a year for a MIC linebacker or eighteen million dollars 0:29:17.680 --> 0:29:19.720 a year. Do you feel that good about him? And 0:29:19.760 --> 0:29:21.960 the one thing that I don't know with Miles Jack 0:29:22.080 --> 0:29:24.720 And because it's interesting because it's faded as a story. 0:29:25.120 --> 0:29:27.600 Remember he lasted until the second round because everyone said 0:29:27.600 --> 0:29:29.880 that he had an arthritic knee condition or a problem 0:29:30.120 --> 0:29:32.200 that was going to be affecting him and shortening his career. 0:29:32.560 --> 0:29:34.920 No one's talked about that for a long period of time. 0:29:35.320 --> 0:29:38.200 Was the medical was the medical diagnosis wrong? Or indeed, 0:29:38.320 --> 0:29:40.320 is there a concern signing him to a big money 0:29:40.360 --> 0:29:44.000 deal because potential potential knee problems I could surface starting 0:29:44.000 --> 0:29:45.920 in year four of his career something to follow with 0:29:45.960 --> 0:29:48.080 the Jackie something And yeah, you're right, we haven't heard 0:29:48.080 --> 0:29:50.040 that around here in a while. It has seemed to 0:29:50.080 --> 0:29:52.360 have been an issue for for Miles in his first 0:29:52.600 --> 0:29:54.760 few seasons in the league. Here Alex Marvez with US 0:29:54.960 --> 0:29:59.080 Serious x M, NFL Radio and All Elite Wrestling, the 0:29:59.120 --> 0:30:01.880 new venture they time family involved in that, of course, 0:30:02.360 --> 0:30:04.880 and you were part of the commentary crew for All 0:30:04.920 --> 0:30:08.360 Elite Wrestling. How did this all get started with you, 0:30:08.600 --> 0:30:10.880 by the way, and how fun has it been so 0:30:10.920 --> 0:30:13.320 far for you? It has been amazing. And you know, 0:30:13.360 --> 0:30:15.480 Tony conn and I have struck up a friendship outside 0:30:15.480 --> 0:30:18.680 of the Jacksonville Jaguars. I mean, just look a brilliant guy. 0:30:18.720 --> 0:30:20.600 I mean, he he raises my game when I hang 0:30:20.600 --> 0:30:22.040 out with him, let me put it like that, and 0:30:22.120 --> 0:30:24.240 we you know, he he knew of me, you know, 0:30:24.280 --> 0:30:27.880 because I had a background reporting on professional wrestling, and 0:30:27.960 --> 0:30:29.880 you know when when he and his family first bought 0:30:29.880 --> 0:30:32.640 the team, you know, he introduced himself and he told 0:30:32.680 --> 0:30:34.280 me that I'll never forget I met him doing a 0:30:34.320 --> 0:30:37.800 serious XM you know radio show, you know, previewing the 0:30:37.880 --> 0:30:40.240 Jaguars camp and who was in the old locker room, 0:30:40.720 --> 0:30:43.240 you know, before the neon lights. That was your suggestion, 0:30:43.320 --> 0:30:45.600 by the way, I know that, and you know so 0:30:45.600 --> 0:30:48.320 so we talked about wrestling, but then as time went along, 0:30:48.440 --> 0:30:50.680 we became closer friends. You know, we went to a 0:30:50.680 --> 0:30:53.400 New Japan pro wrestling show and Long Beach together. Were 0:30:53.400 --> 0:30:55.680 actually all over the TV show when you saw New 0:30:55.720 --> 0:30:59.000 Japan's debut in the States on Access TV. And he's 0:30:59.000 --> 0:31:01.800 told me confidential that, look, I'm thinking about starting up 0:31:01.800 --> 0:31:03.800 a pro wrestling company. I'd love for you to be involved, 0:31:03.800 --> 0:31:05.960 and I'm not going to turn that down. So that's 0:31:05.960 --> 0:31:08.440 where things started with All Elite Wrestling. And it's a 0:31:08.440 --> 0:31:10.680 true passion of Tony. It doesn't diminish the amount of 0:31:10.680 --> 0:31:12.760 time that he's spending, you know, on the Fulham soccer team, 0:31:13.160 --> 0:31:15.320 or you know with the Jacksonville Jaguars helping with the 0:31:15.320 --> 0:31:17.920 analytics and things like this. It's just something that that 0:31:17.960 --> 0:31:19.680 he's loved for a long period of time. He has 0:31:19.680 --> 0:31:21.920 an incredible vision for where he wants our company to be. 0:31:22.320 --> 0:31:25.000 And I mean already even before our first match on 0:31:25.040 --> 0:31:28.480 t NT coming up October two, eight to ten Eastern time, 0:31:28.560 --> 0:31:31.240 every Wednesday night, I mean, he has already made a 0:31:31.320 --> 0:31:34.160 huge impact on the wrestling business. W w E has 0:31:34.200 --> 0:31:36.000 it's the panic button because they don't want to give 0:31:36.040 --> 0:31:39.120 us any momentum. They've added Wednesday night programming that's coming 0:31:39.200 --> 0:31:41.800 up on another cable network because they're afraid of us 0:31:41.800 --> 0:31:45.680 making inroads. They've signed their talent to longer contracts worth 0:31:45.680 --> 0:31:49.640 more money because they're worried about all Elie wrestling. I mean, 0:31:49.680 --> 0:31:52.600 it's been it's been fascinating to watch, you know, the 0:31:52.680 --> 0:31:55.560 way the way that the competition has reacted to this 0:31:55.640 --> 0:31:57.960 upstart company. But I think we just are going to 0:31:58.000 --> 0:32:00.640 stay in our lane. We're gonna produce a quality product. 0:32:00.680 --> 0:32:02.960 We're going to produce great wrestling and with a lot 0:32:02.960 --> 0:32:05.800 of fresh faces, people that you haven't seen every week 0:32:05.840 --> 0:32:09.240 on TV that are burgeoning superstars or had the potential 0:32:09.240 --> 0:32:11.760 to become that. Combined with some really good veterans, it's 0:32:11.760 --> 0:32:14.280 a very exciting time, you know, for this company for 0:32:14.320 --> 0:32:16.960 professional wrestling. For a e W comes along at a 0:32:16.960 --> 0:32:18.920 perfect time and and Wednesday night, it's going to be 0:32:19.000 --> 0:32:21.960 very interesting head to head wrestling wars starting once again. 0:32:22.000 --> 0:32:24.640 I guess, being back on t NT with pro wrestling 0:32:24.720 --> 0:32:26.480 for the first time in twenty years or so, that's 0:32:26.480 --> 0:32:29.080 a propos because that's really what the genesis of of 0:32:29.160 --> 0:32:31.840 TNT getting involved in primetime wrestling to begin with those 0:32:31.880 --> 0:32:35.480 old w CWWW E wars. That's the good old days 0:32:35.600 --> 0:32:37.880 right there of wrestling for sure. Here's the schedule coming 0:32:37.960 --> 0:32:40.000 up for a e W all Out at the Series 0:32:40.040 --> 0:32:42.840 Center in Chicago August thirty one, and then the A 0:32:42.920 --> 0:32:45.720 E W ON T and T schedule starts in October, 0:32:45.760 --> 0:32:48.680 as you said, October two in Washington, Boston, a week 0:32:48.720 --> 0:32:51.880 after that, Philly, Pittsburgh, Charleston, West Virginia down the Pike 0:32:52.080 --> 0:32:55.360 as well. One final question about this, Alex before I 0:32:55.440 --> 0:32:58.680 let you go today, I appreciate your time always. Um, 0:32:58.760 --> 0:33:02.520 how different is it a coaching, reporting and commentating on 0:33:02.600 --> 0:33:06.840 wrestling than it is reporting on and interviewing people for football, 0:33:07.000 --> 0:33:11.320 and how how different are the two. Oh no, it's 0:33:11.440 --> 0:33:14.400 it's completely different. And listen, I'm swimming in deep water, okay. 0:33:14.400 --> 0:33:16.800 I mean we're talking about Jim Ross and Excalibur, the 0:33:16.840 --> 0:33:18.880 announcing partners that I've had. I mean, these guys have 0:33:18.920 --> 0:33:22.040 broadcast literally thousands of matches and among the very best 0:33:22.120 --> 0:33:25.280 in their field before all elite wrestling. In the debut 0:33:25.360 --> 0:33:28.360 show Double or Nothing, my experience was O point oh 0:33:28.440 --> 0:33:31.120 as far as any sort of call, play by play, etcetera. 0:33:31.240 --> 0:33:33.920 So definitely a learning curve. I feel like I've improved, 0:33:34.080 --> 0:33:35.640 you know, quite a bit from you know, Fight for 0:33:35.680 --> 0:33:38.000 the Fallen when I announced that to Double or Nothing. 0:33:38.000 --> 0:33:40.080 I hope to have opportunities in the future to continue 0:33:40.120 --> 0:33:42.800 to grow in that regard. But it is completely different. 0:33:42.840 --> 0:33:44.600 You know. The nice part is I'm not reporting on 0:33:44.720 --> 0:33:47.239 professional wrestling anymore. I talk about it. I have an 0:33:47.240 --> 0:33:49.880 incredible background in professional wrestling in terms of all the 0:33:49.920 --> 0:33:52.400 things that I've written about it in the past, but 0:33:52.800 --> 0:33:54.520 I don't have to do that, you know, put pen 0:33:54.640 --> 0:33:57.920 to paper and covered as a legitimate enterprise anymore, which 0:33:57.960 --> 0:34:00.760 is nice. I'm actually part of the show at this point, 0:34:00.800 --> 0:34:02.800 doing a lot of things for aw some things behind 0:34:02.840 --> 0:34:05.320 the scenes, some things like called by the Numbers for 0:34:05.400 --> 0:34:08.759 our road To series online which previews the next show, 0:34:08.800 --> 0:34:11.480 like road to All Out that, things like that. I mean, 0:34:11.560 --> 0:34:14.600 so it's been an incredibly challenging thing at this point 0:34:14.600 --> 0:34:17.960 in my career. JP. It's my twenty fifth season uncovering 0:34:18.040 --> 0:34:20.799 the NFL in some form of fashion, whether as a writer, 0:34:20.840 --> 0:34:23.319 whether doing TV reporting like I did for FS one 0:34:23.680 --> 0:34:26.640 or or announcing for Serious x M NFL Radio. And 0:34:26.760 --> 0:34:28.200 you know, to be able to have the chance to 0:34:28.320 --> 0:34:31.239 learn something new and do something different on top of that, 0:34:31.560 --> 0:34:33.080 at this point in my life, at this point in 0:34:33.120 --> 0:34:37.359 my professional career, it's been extremely challenging, extremely rewarding as well. 0:34:37.440 --> 0:34:39.399 I wouldn't change it for a minute. And I mean 0:34:39.400 --> 0:34:41.919 the best is yet to come. I mean, every week 0:34:42.160 --> 0:34:43.680 I'm gonna have a chance to be involved with a 0:34:43.719 --> 0:34:47.200 pro wrestling show on television, on cable television in a 0:34:47.239 --> 0:34:50.120 different city around the country. What an incredible opportunity for me, 0:34:50.160 --> 0:34:52.200 and I'm greatly appreciable the con family for giving it 0:34:52.239 --> 0:34:54.399 to me. Excited to see you on that as well. 0:34:54.440 --> 0:34:56.800 Alex is always good to have you and we always 0:34:56.800 --> 0:34:59.399 appreciate your time.

A black tagar is Happy Hour 0:37:12.520 --> 0:37:15.160 presented by the Fields Auto Group. Final moments the Jags 0:37:15.160 --> 0:37:17.880 and the Dolphins coming up Tomorrow Night's eight fifteen. The 0:37:17.920 --> 0:37:21.960 official kickoff time schedule for eight o'clock, but the national 0:37:22.000 --> 0:37:25.640 television broadcast so eight fift told meats leather tomorrow with 0:37:25.719 --> 0:37:28.000 the Jags and the Dolphins. Some final thoughts here in 0:37:28.000 --> 0:37:30.960 the segment. Each Wednesday, we John Osan and I usually 0:37:30.960 --> 0:37:33.760 pick some players to watch. Usually it'd be deep tracks, 0:37:33.840 --> 0:37:35.799 but we're not really doing that right now in the preseason. 0:37:36.040 --> 0:37:38.680 We're gonna pick two players to watch for tomorrow night, 0:37:38.719 --> 0:37:41.439 and they're barely clear. First of all, for me, Cam 0:37:41.520 --> 0:37:44.800 Robinson tomorrow. If he goes, it sounds like he could 0:37:44.920 --> 0:37:47.640 get a little bit of time to our night. It's 0:37:47.640 --> 0:37:50.240 his third NFL season, of course, coming off the knee injury. 0:37:50.280 --> 0:37:54.360 He was just back on the practice field two weeks 0:37:54.360 --> 0:37:57.360 ago for the first time, trying to get some more teamwork. 0:37:57.400 --> 0:38:00.120 At some point, we think, and it sounds like he's 0:38:00.120 --> 0:38:01.839 not on the list of players not going, at least 0:38:01.880 --> 0:38:04.920 Doug Maron had yesterday that we'll see if he trots 0:38:04.960 --> 0:38:07.799 out there with the opening group tomorrow and how much 0:38:07.840 --> 0:38:10.520 time he gets on that knee. He's been working with 0:38:10.560 --> 0:38:12.839 a brace on the knee and practice the last week 0:38:12.920 --> 0:38:15.480 or so. At least the periods we've had open to 0:38:15.520 --> 0:38:17.640 see he did not have the brace on the first week. 0:38:17.680 --> 0:38:20.200 He came back when he was doing individual and walked 0:38:20.239 --> 0:38:22.040 through only, So that has been a little bit of 0:38:22.200 --> 0:38:23.799 a little bit of a change for him. He said 0:38:23.800 --> 0:38:25.520 he doesn't really like it, but he understands why he 0:38:25.560 --> 0:38:26.880 has to wear it. That's what he told us in 0:38:26.880 --> 0:38:29.319 the locker room the other day. We'll see if he 0:38:29.360 --> 0:38:31.840 gets time. That's a big part of this Jaguars offense 0:38:31.920 --> 0:38:33.680 this year. If they can get their left tackle back 0:38:33.680 --> 0:38:35.960 and ready to go for Week one, it is a 0:38:36.080 --> 0:38:39.160 tight schedule of him coming back. That's somebody to watch 0:38:39.200 --> 0:38:41.759 on offense tomorrow night. And on defensive side you heard 0:38:41.760 --> 0:38:46.719 from earlier today. For me, it's Miles Jack, fourth year linebacker. Uh, 0:38:46.880 --> 0:38:50.200 he's controlling this defense. Everybody has raved about his training 0:38:50.280 --> 0:38:53.080 camp and preseasons or not. The preseason he hasn't played 0:38:53.080 --> 0:38:54.719 in the game yet, but the training camp so far, 0:38:55.080 --> 0:38:57.720 he's controlled that defense, getting guys in the right spot, 0:38:57.760 --> 0:39:00.640 giving him the good looks. And see it in a 0:39:00.719 --> 0:39:03.040 game tomorrow the first time with the starters on the 0:39:03.080 --> 0:39:05.239 defensive side of the football. Let's see what Miles can 0:39:05.280 --> 0:39:07.520 get done in his fourth season. Big one contract here 0:39:07.800 --> 0:39:09.960 for the former second round picking. You heard Alex Marvez 0:39:10.000 --> 0:39:12.920 there say, you know, everybody kind of forgot about those 0:39:13.000 --> 0:39:16.600 alleged knee issues that dropped him down in the draft. Um, 0:39:16.719 --> 0:39:18.719 we'll see as the year goes on here and his 0:39:18.760 --> 0:39:22.279 play continues. If you know, at some point he's either 0:39:22.320 --> 0:39:25.120 gonna become a free agent or he won't. What happens 0:39:25.120 --> 0:39:27.200 with the Jaguars with that, that's on down the line. 0:39:27.280 --> 0:39:29.759 Let's see a little football tomorrow night from Miles jack. 0:39:30.200 --> 0:39:33.520 Our schedule tomorrow on Jaguars Radio, It's busy.
