1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:03,160
Speaker 1: Jeff Wars did you don't check Jack Morris? Did you

2
00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:09,760
Speaker 1: know Jackuarris, Bran Time, Bryan Sex steps to John os Ages,

3
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:18,360
Speaker 1: Ashley Jaguarris Drive Time starts right now. Good morning, Happy Friday.

4
00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:21,480
Speaker 1: Welcome to Jack's Drive Time, brought to you by our

5
00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:25,119
Speaker 1: friends at Ashley Furniture Home Stores. Bryan, John Ashley the

6
00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:28,560
Speaker 1: coach would be along for coffee with the coach. Uh,

7
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:33,159
Speaker 1: we'll have my Dempsey later with fantasy football. Um, you know,

8
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:36,640
Speaker 1: I'll check my fantasy scores. By the way, were you

9
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:42,680
Speaker 1: it's still so as a little teaser, good news for

10
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:45,400
Speaker 1: Johnny Oh coming later in really the last thing we

11
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:48,839
Speaker 1: needed to him to be successful at this well, I

12
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:50,879
Speaker 1: was the most successful the last time we did this

13
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:52,440
Speaker 1: two weeks ago. I just want to point out you're

14
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 1: also Mista at this time, but I made up ground

15
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:56,960
Speaker 1: on Mike, but I don't want to spoil. Yeah, you're

16
00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 1: only really concerned with with Dempsey, right that. I mean

17
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:03,720
Speaker 1: that I feel good. It's still a very large gap.

18
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 1: It's so large as you think. So. Um, yesterday on

19
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,959
Speaker 1: this program, I we had Marcus on and we do

20
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,679
Speaker 1: a Thursday night preview and I picked the Chargers and

21
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 1: Marcus looked at me like, you're crazy. Um. And even

22
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 1: when the Chiefs jumped out to a four teen nothing

23
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 1: lead last night, you still got the sense that their

24
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 1: defense wasn't gonna be able to hold off Philip Rivers.

25
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 1: And so I'm going to make a bold prediction here, Um,

26
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:29,600
Speaker 1: I think that the Charges are gonna be the one

27
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: seed in the a f C. Kansas City has to

28
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 1: go to Seattle next week, and with their defense, which

29
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:39,039
Speaker 1: has a few gifted players but not enough, I think

30
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 1: the Charges are gonna beat the Ravens and the Broncos

31
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:42,760
Speaker 1: and have the one seed and everything is going to

32
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:46,960
Speaker 1: have to go through l a maybe in both conferences.

33
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 1: How interesting would that be? Yeah, what's the a f

34
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 1: C championship game played in the stadium with twenty seven

35
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 1: thousand seats? If if the Saints don't lose, they'll still

36
00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 1: have home field though, because they beat the Ramps. Uh

37
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 1: but yeah, I mean it's it is ironic that the

38
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 1: whole season areas in Tolle of the Rams and they

39
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 1: may not be the best team in Los Angeles. I

40
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: think right now you could make the case that the

41
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:11,960
Speaker 1: Charges of the best team. And look, they've beaten Pittsburgh

42
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 1: in Pittsburgh and then Kansas City in Kansas City to

43
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 1: primetime games on the road in the cold, right, because

44
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 1: it was cold in both situations. And Philip Rivers Michael Williams, Wow,

45
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 1: what a receiver I did. I wish the check wards

46
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:29,799
Speaker 1: were part of the playoffs because I think they're gound

47
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:33,679
Speaker 1: be very compelling this year. Yeah, and it I think

48
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 1: I've been saying the last month or so, it looks

49
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 1: like some of the teams that were uh so explosive,

50
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 1: you know, the forty five point teams that were so

51
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: geared toward offense. I don't say they're coming back to Earth,

52
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 1: but it does seem like some more of the conventional

53
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 1: was that the Charge is a little more conventional conventional

54
00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 1: and the Bears, so it's, uh, let's let the season

55
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,959
Speaker 1: play out before we decide we're going to play basketball. Yeah,

56
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 1: I say Charges win the a f C. But the

57
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 1: confidence they had in Philip Rivers with eight seconds left,

58
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 1: I think myself watching I had all the confidence in

59
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 1: the world that he was going to score. By the way,

60
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 1: they won those two games without Melvin Gordon, right, who

61
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 1: is an explosive runner. If you haven't watched the Chargers,

62
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 1: and you've almost forgotten about that watching the game that

63
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 1: he wasn't there, Yeah, no doubt. I mean to watch

64
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 1: the kid playing for him and his name escaped him

65
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 1: and the kid playing forms good. Austin Ekeler, Yeah, he

66
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 1: didn't play last night either. He didn't well who was

67
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 1: playing for him? They had an It was Justin Jackson.

68
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 1: Justin Johnson. I mean I didn't even played good too.

69
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 1: He played well, right, but Kansas City miss Kareem Hunt,

70
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 1: missed Kareem Hunt greatly. And when you play a great defense,

71
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 1: and the Chargers do have that going right now. It

72
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 1: was an excellent game, fun game to what the Homes

73
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 1: only got like two or forty yards. He threw two

74
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 1: touchdowns in the first quarter and they didn't again. So

75
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:59,839
Speaker 1: so yeah, pat day from Holmes hundred ten point seven.

76
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 1: Not quite that good. Okay, how about some big things

77
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 1: before a head coach does. Maron joined us and we

78
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 1: turned it over us. Big thing one is the same

79
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,760
Speaker 1: but different, So similar situation for both these teams at

80
00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 1: the beginning of the season. They had a lot to

81
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 1: play for. We were excited about this game at the

82
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 1: beginning of the season. Similar situations that this season hasn't

83
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,680
Speaker 1: played out the way that the Redskins and Jaguars want,

84
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,479
Speaker 1: but the Redskins are still playing for something. We talked

85
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,480
Speaker 1: to the writer for the Redskins yesterday and he said

86
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 1: their locker room is split, that they're still talking about

87
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 1: the playoffs. Yeah, that's what makes this interesting. You know,

88
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 1: a national writer talked about this being the Disappointment Bowl,

89
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 1: two teams that had serious postseason aspirations, and he was

90
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,640
Speaker 1: kind of downplaying the game. But you can't take away

91
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 1: from the fact that the six and seven Redskins and

92
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 1: their writer told us yesterday that if they win two games,

93
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,240
Speaker 1: there's a legit chance for them to slide in and

94
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 1: he said there was even a mathematical chance if they

95
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 1: want only one. Well, if that's what they're talking about,

96
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: and I don't know the scenarios that gives them something

97
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,720
Speaker 1: to play for, Josh Johnson or not, and with their defense,

98
00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 1: it's going to make it an intense game. Well, I

99
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,920
Speaker 1: think the Jagger a win Sunday, but you can't say

100
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 1: that that for Washington, this game is not winnable. That's

101
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 1: certainly capable coming into winning, and then they play Philadelphia next.

102
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 1: So my impression is I haven't looked deep in the scenario,

103
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 1: but the team they're most worried about that they can't

104
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 1: control is Minnesota because they can control what happens to

105
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 1: Philly because they can beat them. So yeah, they're thinking

106
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 1: about it. If if this, if this game proves nothing else. Um,

107
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:30,680
Speaker 1: it's the injuries matter so much in the NFL. It's

108
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,039
Speaker 1: what defines both of these teams season. Dog is gonna

109
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:34,720
Speaker 1: come in here and say they shouldn't define it, but

110
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:40,159
Speaker 1: it defined this team season. And I've gotten some emails

111
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,920
Speaker 1: this week's and well, you know, the jag Wars can't complain.

112
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,039
Speaker 1: Look what's happened to the Redskins. This shows the Joe.

113
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 1: They're both the same story. Six and three Washington was

114
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 1: before the injuries hit. I think they were leading the

115
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 1: division by two games. Before the injuries hit. This team,

116
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,679
Speaker 1: they were three and one, so um yeah they matter.

117
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 1: But the Skins. You absolutely as weird as it sounds

118
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 1: for the team that's lost four games in a row.

119
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 1: The Jaguarys can play spoiler this weekend. I understand that.

120
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 1: And and the interesting part and people forget they're they're

121
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:18,400
Speaker 1: looking at Josh Johnson, who was now famously playing and

122
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:22,280
Speaker 1: pick up basketball games two weeks ago, um, ten days ago.

123
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 1: They look and they go fourth quarterback hasn't played since fourteen.

124
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 1: There's no way you're going on their own beating anybody,

125
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 1: especially not a team with the talent that the Jaguars

126
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 1: have on devents no chance, right, Um, except that you

127
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:39,039
Speaker 1: remember that Gruden had Josh Jackson with him in Tampa

128
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: and since so they don't have to dramatically change a

129
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 1: whole lot. Johnson's a smart kid. By the ways, Marshawn

130
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 1: Lynch's cousin, I don't know even know that they grew

131
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 1: up together in Oakland, California. Was reading a story about

132
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:55,039
Speaker 1: that yesterday. Uh, smart kid and Uh Todd Walsh was

133
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:58,480
Speaker 1: on that staff in Tampa with Yeah, that had him

134
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,159
Speaker 1: so uh and yesterday that he was effusive in his

135
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:02,840
Speaker 1: praised for the kind of kid that he is and

136
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:04,599
Speaker 1: the kind of athlete and the kind of plays that

137
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 1: he can make. So I know people are gonna pay

138
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 1: have the fourth quarterback. Jacks aren't playing for Redskins, aren't really?

139
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 1: Yeah they the Redskins are, and that makes this a

140
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: game worth paying attention to. Well, and it's he'll have

141
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 1: a package of plays that he can do. You you

142
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 1: would figure he can't go very deep in his reads,

143
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,280
Speaker 1: but he has the ability to run and he has

144
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson. So right now, the way the Jaguars are

145
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 1: playing offense, uh, you know, the Skins have to come

146
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 1: in here thinking if we get a couple of touchdowns

147
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 1: that we're gonna be in this It's up to the

148
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 1: Jay Wars offense to prove that very wrong. All right,

149
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 1: big thing too, Big Thing too is focused, So obviously

150
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 1: easier said than does that. This team has to have

151
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:42,600
Speaker 1: focused the next three weeks. But I will said, have

152
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 1: been pleasantly surprised this week in the locker room. They

153
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 1: do seem focusing on the Redskins. And even if you're

154
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 1: talking about, you know, focusing for the rest of the season,

155
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 1: they were so honed in on this game this week,

156
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 1: winning this game, and we've been talking about that all season,

157
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 1: but it seems to be true this week that they

158
00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 1: are focused for the Redskins. Well, and you know, there

159
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 1: was the story this week that Malik Jackson said he

160
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 1: didn't see a future for himself in Jacksonville. And you

161
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 1: start talking about change, and players start talking about change,

162
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:09,040
Speaker 1: and every player starts thinking, oh, you know, is it me?

163
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 1: Is it someone else? Coaches assistant coaches think that way too.

164
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 1: I think Doug's biggest task at this juncture of the

165
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,320
Speaker 1: season is keeping everybody focused. Right. That's not an easy

166
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 1: thing to do with fifty three men on the roster

167
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 1: and a coaching staff and a support staff. That's not

168
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 1: just not an easy thing to do. That's a very

169
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 1: demanding and difficult thing to do, right. And I think,

170
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 1: if memory serves I think he addressed a little bit Monday.

171
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:35,319
Speaker 1: Uh he's been around the NFL. He knows what it is.

172
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 1: Uh So, yes, that's his task. But um, you can

173
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 1: be focused on this game, same Elie Jackson, for example.

174
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 1: You can be focused on this game and still know

175
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 1: in the back of your mind that this this league's

176
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 1: a business and that it appears unlikely you won't be back.

177
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 1: Those two things don't have to one doesn't have to

178
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 1: interfere with the other, and they're pros. I think the

179
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:03,080
Speaker 1: big thing what happened this week is they won't want

180
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,559
Speaker 1: to go to the end of the season defined by

181
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 1: what happened in Tennessee. If the defense comes out and

182
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,480
Speaker 1: plays against Adrian Peterson the way it did against Derrick Henry,

183
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 1: they will be defined by what happened. So my guests

184
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 1: is at least for this week, that that motivation will

185
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 1: serve them. Well, all right, let's roll a big thing

186
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 1: three because I see the coach in the other room.

187
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,960
Speaker 1: Big thing three is farewell the season finale at home

188
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 1: this Sunday, And for some players it will be the

189
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 1: last time that they played here in Jacksonville at home.

190
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 1: So we talked about taking advantage of the opportunity. For

191
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 1: some of these players, it's your last game here in Jacksonville.

192
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:37,439
Speaker 1: And I go back to something that Calais Campbell said,

193
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 1: and he said it a few times, but he was

194
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 1: he was on the Monday morning Quarterback with Albert Breer

195
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:44,840
Speaker 1: was doing a radio show, and he talked about fighting

196
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,959
Speaker 1: to keep as many of the guys here, right, to

197
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,120
Speaker 1: give Doug and Dave and Tom a compelling reason to

198
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,959
Speaker 1: keep as many of them as they can so that

199
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:57,880
Speaker 1: they could finish what they started last year next year.

200
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 1: And obviously that's little and those are salary cap decisions

201
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,439
Speaker 1: and draft comes into that and all of that stuff

202
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 1: in there. Um. But I just got the sense from

203
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,559
Speaker 1: a couple of those guys they liked this group. They

204
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 1: enjoyed being around each other, and they understand that this

205
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,000
Speaker 1: is the swan song, at least at t I a

206
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:19,120
Speaker 1: bank Field. Well, that's the reality with any NFL team

207
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,200
Speaker 1: these days, you know, the core can some of them

208
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,720
Speaker 1: stay together, It's always gonna be changed and and and

209
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 1: they'll be guys on this team who have mattered, who

210
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:30,840
Speaker 1: have been out in the community, who have connected to Jacksonville,

211
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:32,559
Speaker 1: who will be playing their last game. So it's a

212
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:36,240
Speaker 1: storyline for some of these guys. Um And again there's

213
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 1: a difference with teams that are out of it. There's

214
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 1: often a difference between how they play on the road

215
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,320
Speaker 1: and play at home. There's another reason I think that

216
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:45,560
Speaker 1: I think they'll play well this week, much better than

217
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 1: they didn't ask right. Also, you know, you say, okay,

218
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 1: there's a good chance that Millie Jackson moves on with

219
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 1: the salary cap figure. But we're seeing more of Tavin,

220
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:54,680
Speaker 1: Brian and Brian all of a sudden, So yeah, it

221
00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:57,760
Speaker 1: isn't fairwell, but it's also an introduction because Ronnie Harrison

222
00:10:57,840 --> 00:10:59,559
Speaker 1: is going to play, you know, for the third straight

223
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 1: game in the last two weeks. He's introduced himself to

224
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 1: the fantas away so Yeah, it's that. It's that matriculation.

225
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 1: I don't want what the right words circle of life,

226
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 1: Brian's what it is is that what they call it business.

Speaker 1: Thanks Ashton grew up on Lion Kings, great film. Okay,

265
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 1: Moron joins us now on a Friday morning. Um, you've

266
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 1: been asked all week about Josh Johnson. How far back

267
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,960
Speaker 1: do you go to find a solution to what he

268
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 1: may be? Well, I think you know, obviously he played

269
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 1: last week, so you have you know, that stuff on film,

270
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 1: and you know Todd Washer was with him and Tampa, so, um,

271
00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:54,559
Speaker 1: you know he had a good insight to obviously the

272
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,600
Speaker 1: skill set, even though it a long time ago. Um,

273
00:13:57,640 --> 00:13:59,400
Speaker 1: but you can see the skill set, you know from

274
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,320
Speaker 1: the film that we watched the other day. Knowing that

275
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:03,719
Speaker 1: you know, he's a guy that, uh, you know, he

276
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:06,680
Speaker 1: can he can extend plays, he can you know, break

277
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,000
Speaker 1: out of the pocket. He can you know, run all

278
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,720
Speaker 1: the read option with the run pass options on the

279
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 1: on the outside. So you know, he's a quarterback that

280
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 1: you know, we've been struggling with most of the year.

281
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 1: You know, these guys that can do all this stuff,

282
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:21,840
Speaker 1: so it's gonna be a great challenge for us. On Sunday,

283
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,680
Speaker 1: I can remember us talking opening week and and talking

284
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 1: about how difficult it's opening week, especially with a new coach,

285
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 1: and on the other sideline trying to figure out what

286
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 1: they may do. This would seem to be the same challenge,

287
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:33,320
Speaker 1: right it would be. And I think, you know, you

288
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,000
Speaker 1: just got to make sure your sound and everything that

289
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 1: you do and you have everything covered so um, you

290
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 1: know from that standpoint, and you know, we have to

291
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:41,320
Speaker 1: have a good rush plan and try to keep him

292
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 1: in the pocket and then cover our gaps defensively. And

293
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:46,120
Speaker 1: I think, you know, the one thing that gets overlooked

294
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,160
Speaker 1: is the first thing I would imagine that you know,

295
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 1: they're gonna turn around and hand the ball to Adrian

296
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:51,800
Speaker 1: Peterson to see if you know we have a good

297
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 1: tackling plan for him. He talked, I'm serious. You've talked

298
00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:58,440
Speaker 1: a lot in a couple of years been in here

299
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:00,840
Speaker 1: about certain players he had a great respect for. And

300
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 1: I know you respect what players go through. Adrian Peterson,

301
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 1: to play at a high level for as long as

302
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:08,600
Speaker 1: you have has to be something you respect. There's no

303
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,640
Speaker 1: doubt I think that you know, I always go back to, uh,

304
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 1: you know, my time and with the Jets when we

305
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 1: had Curtis Martin, who is the you know, he's actually

306
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:20,720
Speaker 1: is the oldest player to win the Russian title, and

307
00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 1: he had an unbelievable year and just you know, watching

308
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 1: him practice and watching how he took care of his bodies,

309
00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:29,160
Speaker 1: it's just it's just amazing, you know, to see you know,

310
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,960
Speaker 1: those top end athletes and and what they can do.

311
00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 1: And I think, you know, a p is the same

312
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:35,840
Speaker 1: type of guy. I think that you know, he's the

313
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 1: guy that's taking care of his body, so you know,

314
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:39,920
Speaker 1: you can see him when you know a lot of

315
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 1: times you're you're always gonna be physical. You know, he

316
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,480
Speaker 1: breaks tackles, you alds after contact. But outstanding I think

317
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 1: the thing probably that you're most impressed with us. You know,

318
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 1: obviously he broke that ninety yard run and was able

319
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 1: to run by people, and uh, you know, when he

320
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 1: gets out in the open field and he's running, you know,

321
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,000
Speaker 1: not only is he tough to bring down, but he

322
00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:00,280
Speaker 1: also has good speed. With the way that the Wards

323
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 1: defense couldn't stop Derrick Henry last week. What kind of

324
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 1: emphasis has been put on stopping thereun this week with

325
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson. Well, you know, both Wednesday and Thursday of

326
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 1: this week, you know, we spent a lot of time

327
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 1: with you know, form tackling. You know, at this time

328
00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:14,360
Speaker 1: of the year, you don't have pads on during the practice,

329
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 1: so you know, we spent a lot of time on that,

330
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:19,240
Speaker 1: you know, making sure that you know, we're we're tackling

331
00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 1: at the at the proper level, and we're trying to

332
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 1: get population to the football, you know, so we're trying

333
00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 1: to get as many guys as we can. So we

334
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 1: put them for the song it this week and you know,

335
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 1: hopefully we can go out there and it shows in

336
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,440
Speaker 1: a performance. We were talking about the Maleague story that

337
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,080
Speaker 1: came out earlier this week and focus. When you see

338
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 1: a story like that, how do you react to coach

339
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 1: at this point of the year. How do you do

340
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 1: you think you're maybe losing a little bit the focus

341
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:44,600
Speaker 1: in that locker room when guys start talking about next year. Well,

342
00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:47,960
Speaker 1: I didn't read, you know, exactly what he said. So

343
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,600
Speaker 1: he said he didn't necessarily see a future for himself

344
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 1: in Jacksonville. I think when you're losing and you know

345
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 1: and you have a disappointing season. I think it affects everyone.

346
00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,920
Speaker 1: You know, everyone you know come in the question of

347
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:05,360
Speaker 1: you know, we all did into our job, starting with me.

348
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:07,399
Speaker 1: So you know, I think when you say, you know,

349
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:09,159
Speaker 1: I don't know what the future holes, I don't know

350
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 1: where I'm gonna be. I just know that, you know,

351
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:13,440
Speaker 1: I've got to go out there every day and be

352
00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 1: able to to to be a pro and in a performance,

353
00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:18,919
Speaker 1: whether it's for you know, the team that you're on,

354
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:21,359
Speaker 1: or whether you know, if it's in it's in the

355
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:23,200
Speaker 1: plans that you may not be here, that it's gonna

356
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:25,440
Speaker 1: be for a thirty one other team. So I think

357
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:28,159
Speaker 1: that's what happens a lot to teams. Um, you know

358
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,960
Speaker 1: when they're in this situation that we're in. You talked

359
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,440
Speaker 1: on Monday about maybe it's Wednesday, but the fact this

360
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:36,880
Speaker 1: is the final home game, and you've always talked about

361
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 1: the fans what they mean. Uh, it's important to you

362
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:41,080
Speaker 1: And I got the sense do you think would be

363
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 1: important to players on Sunday? Well, that's the message that

364
00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:45,840
Speaker 1: we're trying to to to talk to the team about.

365
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:50,040
Speaker 1: You know. Obviously, UM, you know we're very disappointed. Um,

366
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,520
Speaker 1: you know, we understand that our fans are extremely disappointed,

367
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:57,240
Speaker 1: and it's a it's a tough, tough pill to swallow,

368
00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:00,679
Speaker 1: you know. And you know, we started off this season well,

369
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:02,840
Speaker 1: and you know in the middle of the season, from

370
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:06,200
Speaker 1: the second and third quarter, we we played poorly. And

371
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:08,679
Speaker 1: you know, we have one more opportunity, you know, to

372
00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:11,119
Speaker 1: go out in front of our fans that have been great,

373
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 1: you know, to have a good performance and you know,

374
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:15,960
Speaker 1: try to end the season almost like we started it.

375
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:18,639
Speaker 1: And that's been you know said to the team, you know,

376
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 1: each and every day, you know, we want to go

377
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,440
Speaker 1: out there and have a great performance, you know, because

378
00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:25,119
Speaker 1: the last game at home and you know, get a

379
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:27,320
Speaker 1: get a good taste in your mouth, I guess, you know,

380
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 1: for lack of a better term, um, you know, as

381
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,320
Speaker 1: you keep pushing forward with with two games left after us,

382
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:36,120
Speaker 1: we've had a lot of fans talk about winning right now,

383
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:38,159
Speaker 1: are losing for the draft? And I know that as

384
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 1: a coach, you probably want to win right now and

385
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:41,440
Speaker 1: I even think about the draft. But is that true

386
00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 1: for the locker room that no one is thinking about

387
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,600
Speaker 1: the draft at this moment? No, I mean, you know,

388
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:49,880
Speaker 1: I can't speak for anyone except for the coaches and players.

389
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:53,600
Speaker 1: I can't imagine. Um everywhere I've ever you know that

390
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:55,480
Speaker 1: I've been, and we've had up and down years that

391
00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:58,639
Speaker 1: you know, people are looking forward to the draft. What

392
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,040
Speaker 1: happens is is when you you know you're not you're

393
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,240
Speaker 1: not playing well at the end of the year, you know,

394
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, there's more talk on the outside,

395
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:08,399
Speaker 1: you know, from a media perspective of where they're going

396
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:10,480
Speaker 1: to be slotted, what they're draft and what they're doing.

397
00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:12,800
Speaker 1: I think that's more of the outside stuff. That stuff

398
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 1: really doesn't um penetrate, you know, the locker room or

399
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,920
Speaker 1: the coaches. You um, you talked Monday about having fun,

400
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,199
Speaker 1: players playing for love of the game, and we've heard

401
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,120
Speaker 1: the word disappointment mixed in the last couple of weeks.

402
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 1: When you go out of the practice field today, do

403
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:28,840
Speaker 1: you expect to see a team having fun? Have you

404
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:32,240
Speaker 1: have they dealt with the disappointment dug in a productive way? Well?

405
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,119
Speaker 1: I think I think it's tough. I mean each person

406
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 1: deals with and you know, in a in a different way.

407
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 1: And you know, when we say, you know, let's go

408
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 1: out there and you know and have fun, it means

409
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,240
Speaker 1: you know, remember how you played this game when you

410
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,600
Speaker 1: were given everything you had where it didn't really matter,

411
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:48,440
Speaker 1: you know, you were out there in uh in the park.

412
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:51,639
Speaker 1: I remember a story, Um, Herman Edwards had told us,

413
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,399
Speaker 1: you know, we were having a down year, you know.

414
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 1: Herman Edwards said, um, you know, he was driving and

415
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:00,520
Speaker 1: he wanted to park in his car are and running

416
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:03,639
Speaker 1: into uh pharmacy And I think this was her and

417
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 1: I'm not not sure, but I know it was the

418
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,160
Speaker 1: head coach I was with. And you know, he parked

419
00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 1: at this pharmacy and he pulls up and is an

420
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:12,800
Speaker 1: empty lot, you know, next to it, and he sees,

421
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,439
Speaker 1: you know, like one of those five on five you know,

422
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,679
Speaker 1: tackle football games going on. And he said, you know,

423
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:21,040
Speaker 1: he just sat there and he and he watched these

424
00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:24,920
Speaker 1: kids and there were no officials, there were no fans,

425
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:28,280
Speaker 1: there were no other people, no one in the stands.

426
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:32,359
Speaker 1: And you know, they're running around, they're giving unbelievable effort there.

427
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,200
Speaker 1: You know, they're they're they're trying their best, they're doing

428
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,840
Speaker 1: all that stuff. And a lot of times, you know,

429
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:40,119
Speaker 1: in this game we look at it as you know, hey,

430
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,520
Speaker 1: they're professionals, they have talent, they have this and that.

431
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:46,280
Speaker 1: But what it means is, hey, go back to that

432
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:49,320
Speaker 1: time when you were playing this game because you loved

433
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:51,960
Speaker 1: it so much. You know, because you it has to

434
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 1: be bigger in order to be a really good football

435
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,480
Speaker 1: team and a consistent football team. You know, it has

436
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:03,520
Speaker 1: to be big you than just it's my job. Thing else.

438
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 1: that story before. I think it was harm too. For

Speaker 1: out while you check out the beautiful modern home just

470
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:21,240

Speaker 1: Thanks again too, Head coach Doug Moron for Friday mornings. Um,

472
00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 1: I'm prepping for fantasy. Can you guys just take this

473
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:31,720
Speaker 1: segment and I can like the little or you should

474
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:38,440
Speaker 1: have prepped four? Still prepping? It's that never end. I'm focused,

475
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:43,720
Speaker 1: really have not all right? But yes, yes, go to

476
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:47,399
Speaker 1: the drink finders home. Okay, So you you're gonna join us?

477
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:49,919
Speaker 1: If you're not, oh, I'm here for you. I think

478
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,200
Speaker 1: you should go first. After all of that, you should

479
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 1: go first. For he will, he won't, he might. Is

480
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:55,960
Speaker 1: there anything that we do that John doesn't go first?

481
00:23:56,440 --> 00:24:00,159
Speaker 1: Very fair? All right, so let's do it. Let's to

482
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 1: pick one game and then we'll pick it. So John,

483
00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:11,160
Speaker 1: your game, I got the biggie. And you know it's

484
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 1: funny you thought it was the big before the season.

485
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:17,800
Speaker 1: Would you have dreamed that this wasn't the biggest game

486
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:20,639
Speaker 1: of the weekend, which it wasn't, because you know you

487
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 1: had last night's game, which clearly, unless this one's a doozy,

488
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:29,960
Speaker 1: will be the best game of the weekend. Um, this

489
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,359
Speaker 1: is a tough one because you didn't think that both

490
00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:36,600
Speaker 1: would be in a situation where this game might matter.

491
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,520
Speaker 1: New England's gonna make it, but if Pittsburgh loses it,

492
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:44,199
Speaker 1: Baltimore might climb past him. And it's conceivable Pittsburgh can

493
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 1: not make the playoffs. Pittsburgh has been sliding, yeah, and

494
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:48,560
Speaker 1: if the Daggers have been able to hold on here,

495
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:51,240
Speaker 1: they would have they'd beat below the cusp. It's huge.

496
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:55,760
Speaker 1: You kind of keep thinking at some point Pittsburgh is

497
00:24:55,800 --> 00:25:01,320
Speaker 1: gonna turn it back on. Uh, But then sometimes teams

498
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:03,159
Speaker 1: don't turn it back on because they can't turn it

499
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 1: back on, and you wonder if that's where they're at.

500
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:06,800
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go with New England because I think

501
00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:09,359
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh might be in trouble well. And and the photo

502
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:14,040
Speaker 1: that we have there is Jesse James last year with

503
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:18,560
Speaker 1: the infamous fumble that helped change the rule. I mean

504
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:20,119
Speaker 1: that should have been a touchdown. The Steelers should have

505
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 1: won this game. Um. The thing that you know is

506
00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:29,040
Speaker 1: that if the Steelers fall behind, coming back on Pittsburgh,

507
00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, coming back on New England won't be easy.

508
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,680
Speaker 1: And New England just seems this year to be able

509
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 1: to jump out to that lead. Now they blew it

510
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:41,240
Speaker 1: last week at the end of the ball game. Um,

511
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:44,800
Speaker 1: I just I struggled to see Ben Roethlisberger without the

512
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:48,399
Speaker 1: consistent running game. Is Connor playing this week? Yeah, but

513
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:50,720
Speaker 1: without the consistent running game, I struggled to see him

514
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,240
Speaker 1: able to jump out to a big lead and hold off.

515
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:58,320
Speaker 1: At the same time, New England is a is a

516
00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:02,280
Speaker 1: touch more vulnerable than you would think. They didn't. They

517
00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:05,119
Speaker 1: always play poorly in Miami for them, which means they

518
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:07,880
Speaker 1: occasionally lose down there. They've lost five of the less

519
00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 1: six times they've played done right, So, um, they're nine

520
00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:15,960
Speaker 1: and four, which is there? Right? Nine and four? Guests,

521
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:18,720
Speaker 1: you lose this one, all of a sudden, you're in

522
00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:20,600
Speaker 1: danger of going to the playoffs with six You know,

523
00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:25,879
Speaker 1: for them, that is a really startling season. Uh, you

524
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:27,720
Speaker 1: just have to go with Belichick in this one and

525
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 1: think that somehow they will figure out how to do it.

526
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,399
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go against you on this one. I'm gonna

527
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 1: have to. I'm gonna go with the Steelers because I

528
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:40,080
Speaker 1: this is it for them. If they don't get this one,

529
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:43,120
Speaker 1: then I then I'm with you. The Ravens I think

530
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,560
Speaker 1: have a winnable game this weekend. I think that they

531
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:48,680
Speaker 1: fall behind and they fall out of this thing. Um,

532
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:50,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Ben Roethlisberger at home. I do

533
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,080
Speaker 1: like their defense. You know, the guy that I really

534
00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 1: have appreciated watching this year for them is Juju Smith Schuster,

535
00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,200
Speaker 1: And I know everyone points to that guy. I hadn't.

536
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,479
Speaker 1: I didn't focus on him last year, but they're here

537
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:03,679
Speaker 1: in this game and watching him in recent weeks. He

538
00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:06,040
Speaker 1: is such a nice player. Yeah, you need a playmaker.

539
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,640
Speaker 1: I think what John said, you have to go with

540
00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:12,240
Speaker 1: New England after especially last week the Miami miracle, but

541
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 1: you you you had to go with Kansas City. Last

542
00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:18,159
Speaker 1: night was like, dang it, Brian's gonna bring it up.

543
00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:24,280
Speaker 1: But sometimes you keep thinking a team's gonna pull it

544
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:27,800
Speaker 1: off and they're really done, and uh, you just wonder

545
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:30,639
Speaker 1: if this isn't a season where they're doing Ain't there

546
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:32,680
Speaker 1: gonna be good for the long term. But you wonder

547
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:35,120
Speaker 1: if this season isn't sliding out of control for some reason.

548
00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:38,560
Speaker 1: I just see Roethlisberger throwing five touchdown passes, I mean,

549
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:42,199
Speaker 1: doing something ridiculous. You don't know what you can run

550
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:45,199
Speaker 1: the game? Yeah, I've got that, You're going to get that.

551
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:46,680
Speaker 1: I don't have the first pick I don't believe. Well,

552
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 1: I'm taking it Okay Up next, Slynn, I have Indianapolis

553
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:57,680
Speaker 1: in the Dallas Cowboys. Cowboys have won five straight. Colts

554
00:27:57,680 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 1: are one spot out of the final wild card spot

555
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,000
Speaker 1: in the a f C. Colts just took down one

556
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:04,320
Speaker 1: of the hottest teams in the NFL with the Texans

557
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,159
Speaker 1: last week, and something tells me they keep rolling at

558
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:09,280
Speaker 1: Lucas Oil Stadium. They seem to have figured it out.

559
00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:12,480
Speaker 1: They've got their quarterback, they've got their playmakers. Dallas, I know,

560
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,120
Speaker 1: as one five straight has seemed to figure it out

561
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 1: as well, but I think Colts got this one. So

562
00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,879
Speaker 1: I was confused last week. Was the Jaguars performance against

563
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:23,479
Speaker 1: Andrew Luck and the Colts as impressive as it seemed,

564
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:25,879
Speaker 1: or did the Colts just come in not ready to

565
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,840
Speaker 1: play right? I mean, I'm sure it would. We watched

566
00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 1: the defense. It was really good. Um, But then the

567
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,760
Speaker 1: Colts go on the road and they give it to

568
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 1: a Texans defense that was playing better than the Jaguars

569
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 1: defense was, and they hang a number on them and

570
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, whoa, it just did the Colts

571
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,280
Speaker 1: just not show up? Well? I think what it really did,

572
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 1: and I think we had someone to the ozone who said,

573
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,720
Speaker 1: you know what could have been this year because that

574
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,520
Speaker 1: defense played its best game of the season against those guys.

575
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:56,720
Speaker 1: Um Andrew Lux got it rolling up there now. I

576
00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:59,160
Speaker 1: mean when Marlon Mack looks like a tough guy to tackle,

577
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 1: I mean he's just a I and and yet you

578
00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:05,080
Speaker 1: know he finds room. And it's because Luck and t

579
00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:08,120
Speaker 1: Y Hilton have such a such a chemistry going. What

580
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:11,959
Speaker 1: also shows you and Jalen talked about it yesterday. Jalen

581
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:14,000
Speaker 1: did a nice job one not t Y Hilton heldon.

582
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 1: I think it was seventy seven yards. He caught eight passes,

583
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:18,960
Speaker 1: but it was for nine point six If if if you

584
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:22,440
Speaker 1: look at t wise other averages during this time, it's

585
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:27,520
Speaker 1: seven eight yards above that. Right now, UM, don't lose

586
00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:29,080
Speaker 1: sight of the fact that Jayalen is the best of

587
00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:31,920
Speaker 1: what he does. I don't, don't. You can't forget that.

588
00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:35,120
Speaker 1: It's gonna be interesting now because Dallas has been playing

589
00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:39,560
Speaker 1: at a very high level defensively too. UM, I don't know,

590
00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,360
Speaker 1: I don't. I guess I'll go with Luck at home.

591
00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:45,480
Speaker 1: They're still in it. They've got a lot of reasons

592
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:47,360
Speaker 1: to play well, and they do play well at home.

593
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 1: I'll go with the Colts, but I think it's gonna

594
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:51,960
Speaker 1: be a great game. I go to Dallas. Excuse me

595
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:58,560
Speaker 1: because good television. Um, I go to Dallas because it

596
00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:01,080
Speaker 1: seems like late in the Sea and you were getting

597
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:06,120
Speaker 1: a trend back toward defense winning, and it's been happening

598
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:08,200
Speaker 1: with Chicago, has been happening with Dallas. I think it

599
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:12,360
Speaker 1: happened a little bit with San Diego. Obviously high scoring game,

600
00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 1: but it just feels like that's coming back a little bit.

601
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 1: Dallas one of the better second half teams over the

602
00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:21,479
Speaker 1: course of this season. I think they keep doing it.

603
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 1: If if Luck puts up a number on these guys, right,

604
00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:27,240
Speaker 1: let's say Luck puts twenty seven points up on these guys,

605
00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:29,280
Speaker 1: and then back to back weeks he has played so

606
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 1: well against the Texans and the Cowboys, good defenses. What

607
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:35,720
Speaker 1: does it say about the drag Wars defense that when

608
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:39,440
Speaker 1: it's right, it can be And I get a lot

609
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:41,080
Speaker 1: of questions about this, Why can't they play if they

610
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:44,280
Speaker 1: did against Colts? Very weak teams don't play that well

611
00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:47,479
Speaker 1: every week. And again, you needed some breaks in that

612
00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:49,240
Speaker 1: game to make it happen. The Colts had a chance

613
00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:52,680
Speaker 1: to hit one deep and luck missed it. Four down

614
00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 1: call that they made to go forward field goal was

615
00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:58,360
Speaker 1: taken off the But usually shutouts have an element of

616
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:00,280
Speaker 1: luck to it. You don't shut out teams in sleading

617
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:03,320
Speaker 1: is to get out of lucky. But even with all that,

618
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:06,640
Speaker 1: it was a ten thirteen point effort for the Colts,

619
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:09,600
Speaker 1: even if things had gone right, which is a phenomenal effort.

620
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:12,680
Speaker 1: It shows you with when this defense is right and

621
00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 1: things are going its way, it can shut you down.

622
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:18,720
Speaker 1: I'll go with them Miami at Minnesota, and we'll talk

623
00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 1: a lot about Miami next week because the Jaguars will

624
00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 1: be playing there a week from Sunday. You know the

625
00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:26,600
Speaker 1: Dolphins this year, I didn't know. I didn't see them

626
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:31,040
Speaker 1: as being in playoff position. Remember the players they shed, right,

627
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 1: I mean Jarvis Landry and and Dominican Sue, just to

628
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,320
Speaker 1: name a couple. And you see what those two players

629
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:38,560
Speaker 1: have meant to the Rams and to the Browns. You

630
00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 1: don't abandon that kind of talent and and necessarily get

631
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 1: better by bringing in older players, which is what they've done.

632
00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:47,040
Speaker 1: But Adam Gaze has it rolling. Then Tanny Hill goes

633
00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:51,160
Speaker 1: down and and they have bruck Osweiler, who was a tremendous,

634
00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:55,760
Speaker 1: colossal failure in Houston, and then you know Cleveland. How

635
00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:57,440
Speaker 1: could they be in a position and yet here they

636
00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,520
Speaker 1: are based on the miracle in Miami lst week if

637
00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:02,400
Speaker 1: you want to call it, that, they're taking on a

638
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:05,920
Speaker 1: Minnesota team that you spent eighty four million dollars on

639
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:09,200
Speaker 1: a quarterbacks disappointing as this thing has been down here

640
00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:12,720
Speaker 1: this year. Who how does it feel in Minnesota? Eighty

641
00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:15,600
Speaker 1: four million for Kirk Cousins. His numbers aren't bad, his

642
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,640
Speaker 1: quarterback ratings right near a hundred um. But they got

643
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:20,680
Speaker 1: him to win games like the other and they go

644
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 1: and they haven't done that. They the big games this

645
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:26,280
Speaker 1: year they've lost. So here you've got a Miami team

646
00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:29,360
Speaker 1: again still on the cusp of it, a Minnesota team

647
00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:31,400
Speaker 1: still on the cusp of it. This one should be

648
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:34,560
Speaker 1: a tremendous game. This one has the opportunity because there's

649
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,040
Speaker 1: some talent on the defense in Miami and some talent

650
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:39,800
Speaker 1: on the offense in Minnesota. I mean both sides of

651
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:43,000
Speaker 1: the bowl. These are good matchups. Miami is what the

652
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:47,080
Speaker 1: Jaguars season I think it could have been with a

653
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 1: breaker two was a four nine. If they get a

654
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:51,680
Speaker 1: break or two in a couple of games, they should

655
00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:57,000
Speaker 1: could slash of one. Then. Uh, the Jaguars are seven

656
00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:59,160
Speaker 1: and six right now, even with all the injuries all

657
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:04,320
Speaker 1: that stuff. Uh yeah, So, I mean Miami is an

658
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:07,240
Speaker 1: example of if you win the games you're supposed to win,

659
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:09,400
Speaker 1: and get a break or two here and there, you

660
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:13,760
Speaker 1: can be in contention late in the season. Um, I

661
00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 1: think I want to pick Minnesota because I just keep

662
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:20,360
Speaker 1: believing in their talent level and it's hard to believe

663
00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:23,320
Speaker 1: there's six, six and one, But I know the Skins

664
00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:25,760
Speaker 1: will be watching that game on Sunday, and so it's

665
00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:30,200
Speaker 1: a I'm I'm gonna go with Minnesota, but I'm not

666
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,720
Speaker 1: gonna feel great about it. Yeah. I feel the same

667
00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:34,880
Speaker 1: way because when you look back at the game last

668
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:36,920
Speaker 1: week with Miami and New England, you need a miracle

669
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:38,479
Speaker 1: to beat New England, and I don't think that can

670
00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:40,520
Speaker 1: happen every week obviously. Now. Do you know, though I

671
00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:42,720
Speaker 1: have said to you guys, in fact, I wrote it

672
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:45,320
Speaker 1: one of our columns, that maybe I should stop saying

673
00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:48,000
Speaker 1: that the Jaguars are so talented, you know, because it

674
00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:51,560
Speaker 1: hasn't translated to wins. I feel the same way about Minnesota.

675
00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:53,080
Speaker 1: You look at their defense, just like I look at

676
00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 1: the Jaguars defensive, wonder how they can give up Yeah,

677
00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:57,880
Speaker 1: how they can give up yards and points like they

678
00:33:57,880 --> 00:33:59,880
Speaker 1: have at times this year. So I'm gonna go with

679
00:33:59,880 --> 00:34:02,960
Speaker 1: my AMMI because I think that they're gonna ride. Last

680
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:07,160
Speaker 1: week and I heard something from Kirk Cousins in the

681
00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:10,480
Speaker 1: postgame show that troubled me. He's like, hell, if we

682
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:12,600
Speaker 1: could just turn this on. It was almost like it's

683
00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:14,440
Speaker 1: not going to go on this year. But boy, if

684
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:16,919
Speaker 1: we could have turned it on this year, what could

685
00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:19,400
Speaker 1: it have been. Well, here's a staggering thing about Minnesota.

686
00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:26,520
Speaker 1: They have really good wide receivers. Yeahs right now, Deeed

687
00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:30,640
Speaker 1: Westbrook is it is playing well. He's the third wide

688
00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:32,759
Speaker 1: receiver MINNESOTAF he's playing up there. He's not starting with

689
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:35,560
Speaker 1: those two. So the wide receivers on that team are

690
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:40,520
Speaker 1: significantly better than here, and they're still struggling. So that's

691
00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 1: a surprise. They didn't expect this. But so often it's

692
00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:46,120
Speaker 1: why we talk about free agency and adding and things like.

693
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:50,320
Speaker 1: It often takes even though we live in a society

694
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:54,399
Speaker 1: where you want to some results free agents last year

695
00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:58,319
Speaker 1: with the Jaguars. It usually does not happen where free

696
00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:03,560
Speaker 1: agents make this dramatic, standing raising impact that immediately. My

697
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:05,319
Speaker 1: guess is Kirk Cousins has a better year next year

698
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:08,560
Speaker 1: than he does this year. And everybody's right now, what happened, Well,

699
00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:11,840
Speaker 1: it just took time. So let's pick one game and

700
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 1: pick it. How about we shift gears now and go

701
00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:17,040
Speaker 1: to he will, he won't, he might, and John will

702
00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:21,200
Speaker 1: slide back down the table to first. Uh. Clayiss Campbell

703
00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:23,719
Speaker 1: and I get that. We talked about Clayiss all the time,

704
00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:26,200
Speaker 1: But in this one he makes sense to me because

705
00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:29,719
Speaker 1: he will show up. And I don't mean that is

706
00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:33,319
Speaker 1: he's gonna show for the game. He will show up,

707
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:37,240
Speaker 1: and he'll be there and he'll prepare all week. He'll

708
00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:42,759
Speaker 1: be there, engage, um, And you never have to worry

709
00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:45,279
Speaker 1: about that with him. So you saw that this week.

710
00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:50,000
Speaker 1: He's a pro. He'll always be there. Um. He won't

711
00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:54,480
Speaker 1: be thinking about next season, except for the fact that

712
00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:58,440
Speaker 1: you mentioned earlier that he wants this thing to stay together.

713
00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:01,759
Speaker 1: I'm feeling different on him than I was. But three

714
00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:04,640
Speaker 1: or four weeks ago I wondered if he would be

715
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:08,439
Speaker 1: back it seems to me like he is playing well

716
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:11,239
Speaker 1: enough to be an outlier in the sense that if

717
00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:14,680
Speaker 1: he was a normal thirty with the thirty two. Yes,

718
00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:17,480
Speaker 1: if he was a normal thirty two year old, I

719
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:19,640
Speaker 1: don't think he'd be back. But he's playing at such

720
00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 1: a high level that I think he will be back. Um,

721
00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:25,440
Speaker 1: and he might pull away from Goockway in in the

722
00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:29,719
Speaker 1: sack department this week, right, So I think that's a

723
00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:34,000
Speaker 1: little battle between him. Um, you know it's Uh. I

724
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:36,120
Speaker 1: don't think he's ever gonna hit double digit sacks again.

725
00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:38,920
Speaker 1: I think that, uh, last year was his year to

726
00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:42,680
Speaker 1: do that. But and he'll get a couple more, get

727
00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:46,640
Speaker 1: eight or nine this year and uh yeah, have a

728
00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:49,160
Speaker 1: season that merits him coming back. Okay, It's funny you

729
00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:51,480
Speaker 1: talk about the competition he has within Gockway. Brian and

730
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:53,600
Speaker 1: I were standing next to the defensive line yesterday at

731
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:55,680
Speaker 1: practice and they were racing each other to try to

732
00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:58,040
Speaker 1: get to the sack first and talking trash to each other.

733
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:00,759
Speaker 1: It's it's definitely a competition either. Actors Field felt like

734
00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:03,520
Speaker 1: a game yesterday, which is a good sign. Yea. They

735
00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:05,640
Speaker 1: were having fun. All right, young lady, we slide to

736
00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:08,080
Speaker 1: you my he will, he won't. He might is a

737
00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:11,760
Speaker 1: J boyer. He will take these next three weeks seriously.

738
00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:13,640
Speaker 1: He has something to prove that he can still play

739
00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:15,719
Speaker 1: at a pro bowl level. We talked about the drop

740
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:18,160
Speaker 1: off he had this season to last season. He's gonna

741
00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:20,239
Speaker 1: take these next three weeks seriously because he wants to

742
00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:23,080
Speaker 1: get back to the level he played in two thousands seventeen.

743
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:26,000
Speaker 1: J Grunen talked about the Jaguars past defense and how

744
00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 1: Josh Johnson is gonna have a tough time because he's

745
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:30,160
Speaker 1: gonna have to go against Jalen Ramsey. And he said, yeah,

746
00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:32,000
Speaker 1: but you forgot about the other guy on the other

747
00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:34,080
Speaker 1: side of the field. A J boy, he's not too

748
00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:36,919
Speaker 1: bad either. He won't make it about him. We've turned

749
00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:39,480
Speaker 1: about the Jaguars defense and when they've had troubles, they

750
00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:41,879
Speaker 1: haven't stuck to their job and they haven't done their job.

751
00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:44,640
Speaker 1: You didn't hear a J boy in that conversation. He

752
00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:47,480
Speaker 1: has done his job and he might get an interception

753
00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:51,600
Speaker 1: this week because why not? Why not? Why not? Alright?

754
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:54,320
Speaker 1: That brings um to you, to me, and this is

755
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:55,960
Speaker 1: what this one's gonna surprise you, because I've been down

756
00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:59,799
Speaker 1: on this. Oh my gosh, um healing Cole, I like

757
00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:03,319
Speaker 1: the one for the record. I, Um, he'll show up

758
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:06,360
Speaker 1: this week. You know it's been Dante Moncrief and d

759
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:09,600
Speaker 1: d Westbrook. Um, but physically this might be the most

760
00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:13,279
Speaker 1: gifted of those three guys. Um. He of course, you

761
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:15,880
Speaker 1: know the last two months since the big drop in

762
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:17,360
Speaker 1: the London game. Of course, he had the drops in

763
00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:19,560
Speaker 1: the the Houston game. So since the twentieth of October,

764
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:23,080
Speaker 1: he's been an entire non factor. Had the fumble against Dallas.

765
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:26,360
Speaker 1: He has a really really tough stretch and you know

766
00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:30,160
Speaker 1: it's easy to forget that he's from Kentucky Wesleyan. UM.

767
00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:32,839
Speaker 1: So you talked about taking time and Kirk Cousins needing

768
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:35,360
Speaker 1: some time. You know, we all watched him back in

769
00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:38,160
Speaker 1: training camp and thought, yeah, he could have a huge

770
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:40,640
Speaker 1: season and probably missed that there was gonna be a

771
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:43,520
Speaker 1: bump from him this year after the strong finish the

772
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:46,640
Speaker 1: last year. UM. So I'm gonna say he will show

773
00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:48,920
Speaker 1: up this week and be a factor. Will be a

774
00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:51,760
Speaker 1: guy who has seven or eight catches, you know, maybe

775
00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:55,399
Speaker 1: eighty nine yards um, and will be the difference maker.

776
00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:58,399
Speaker 1: He'll move the chains, He'll have some plays that get

777
00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:02,279
Speaker 1: the downfield passing games started, take the pressure off of

778
00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:07,000
Speaker 1: Moncrief and Westbrook and adds a different element, a different

779
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:12,080
Speaker 1: option for UM. I wonder a couple of things on

780
00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:15,920
Speaker 1: Cuman Colt. I wonder if the emphasis on not turning

781
00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:19,399
Speaker 1: the ball over, which I think for both quarterbacks, has

782
00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:24,000
Speaker 1: reduced their throws downfield. UH has heard Kean a little

783
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:25,600
Speaker 1: bit in the sense that you don't throw downfield as

784
00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:31,680
Speaker 1: much when you do that. UM. I also wonder I

785
00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:35,879
Speaker 1: know he'll get a chance. I think he'll come back

786
00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:39,000
Speaker 1: stronger than UH next year than he was this year.

787
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:40,839
Speaker 1: I think the last three games for him. YOU saw

788
00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:42,640
Speaker 1: it a little bit against Tennessee, which I'm sure is

789
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:45,080
Speaker 1: why you used him this week. He was my deep

790
00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:51,879
Speaker 1: cut on Jaguars Happy Hour. UM. I think these last

791
00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:54,720
Speaker 1: four games, including the one last week, are very important

792
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:57,480
Speaker 1: for him, and I do think he's still got a chance.

793
00:39:57,520 --> 00:39:59,000
Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna be the one I thought

794
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:01,680
Speaker 1: last year he might have a chance to develop into

795
00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:03,719
Speaker 1: a big time player. I'm not sure he's gonna be there,

796
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:05,600
Speaker 1: but I think he's got a chance to be a

797
00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:08,960
Speaker 1: significant contributor because he's gonna fit salary wise, into what

798
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:11,239
Speaker 1: they're doing, and I don't think they've given up on him,

799
00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:12,640
Speaker 1: and he has the talent to do it. I picked

800
00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:14,000
Speaker 1: him for the way that he stood in the locker

801
00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:17,480
Speaker 1: room and talked after the Tennessee game, right because when

802
00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:20,840
Speaker 1: things got tough, he crawled into his shell against Houston,

803
00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:24,160
Speaker 1: especially in London, UH and wanted nothing to do with

804
00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:28,200
Speaker 1: owning it. And after the game in Nashville, he kind

805
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:30,520
Speaker 1: of won me back with standing there and answering the question.

806
00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:33,720
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna say he won't make a key mistake,

807
00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:36,399
Speaker 1: he won't drop a third down pass. UH, he won't

808
00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:39,560
Speaker 1: fumble a ball. I think that he will come to

809
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:41,880
Speaker 1: play and I think that he won't make mistakes. And

810
00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:44,440
Speaker 1: what I'm gonna say is, I think he might be

811
00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:46,440
Speaker 1: the guy that we're all crowded around in the locker

812
00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:50,840
Speaker 1: room afterwards talking to um, because let's face it, the

813
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:54,799
Speaker 1: offense has not had him, and it hasn't it hasn't

814
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:57,080
Speaker 1: done well the last couple of weeks. If they're going

815
00:40:57,120 --> 00:40:59,080
Speaker 1: to come out and play well, UM, I think he

816
00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:02,080
Speaker 1: might be the reason why he might be that game

817
00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:05,040
Speaker 1: changing player this week. I think I had one to

818
00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:07,280
Speaker 1: have thought on on what's hurt him this year too.

819
00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:10,799
Speaker 1: I think the running game and the offensive line struggles

820
00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:15,200
Speaker 1: have really hurt what he potentially does. Meaning member last

821
00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:18,640
Speaker 1: year he was not a twelve yard over the middle guy.

822
00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:21,239
Speaker 1: He's not there yet, but he was a deep guy

823
00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:24,479
Speaker 1: who could get open deep. The fact that they haven't

824
00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:26,080
Speaker 1: been able to get back to that play action game

825
00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:28,080
Speaker 1: because the running game hasn't been working, because the offensive

826
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:30,480
Speaker 1: line is struggled to protect a lot of things went

827
00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 1: into it. What he does really well is to get deep.

828
00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:35,400
Speaker 1: They haven't had a lot of time to do that

829
00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:37,439
Speaker 1: as well. Right, you saw that unreal one handed catch

830
00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:40,080
Speaker 1: against New England deep on the sidelines, but that's when

831
00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:44,560
Speaker 1: everything was going okay. Well, that shows you his obvious athleticism,

832
00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:47,080
Speaker 1: but it's it's for him. It's about being able to

833
00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:50,719
Speaker 1: be reliable and consistent weekend and week out. There's a

834
00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:52,840
Speaker 1: lot of guys that can make those crazy catches, but

835
00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:54,320
Speaker 1: not a lot of guys that can come week in

836
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:56,840
Speaker 1: and week out and be the guy that their quarterback needs.

837
00:41:57,120 --> 00:41:59,360
Speaker 1: All Right, that's it for this segment. When we returned

838
00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:01,840
Speaker 1: Mike Dempsey just he'll give us he will, he won't,

865
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:05,640
Speaker 1: played that. No, this is from Mr Dempson. He looked

866
00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:10,279
Speaker 1: right at me. I came in last last time. I

867
00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:13,439
Speaker 1: think it's trying to make it more competitive at the end. Well,

868
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:19,480
Speaker 1: it is getting close. John speaking up. He counted, he

869
00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:22,000
Speaker 1: knows exactly what had no idea what the score was

870
00:44:22,040 --> 00:44:26,520
Speaker 1: in September. I'm pretty fun. Happen he's doing well. How

871
00:44:26,560 --> 00:44:29,400
Speaker 1: are you guys? Good? How are you? He will he

872
00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:33,719
Speaker 1: won't he mind Avery Jones, my guy, I will say.

873
00:44:33,719 --> 00:44:38,680
Speaker 1: He will be instrumental in what should be a run

874
00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:41,520
Speaker 1: heavy game plan for the Washington Redskins. If they watched

875
00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:44,680
Speaker 1: Thursday Night Football a week ago. I think they will

876
00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:46,719
Speaker 1: try to run Adrian Peterson quite a bit in this

877
00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:48,320
Speaker 1: football game. So I think he'll be key to the

878
00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:52,920
Speaker 1: run defense playing defensive tackle. There he won't get nearly

879
00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:55,920
Speaker 1: the recognition of the other guys on the defensive line

880
00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:57,879
Speaker 1: because he doesn't have this bigger name or as big

881
00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:01,000
Speaker 1: a contract. But he's playing very well this year, and uh,

882
00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:04,160
Speaker 1: he might be the opening day starter at that position

883
00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:06,359
Speaker 1: next year. I mean, it could be Marcel Darius, you know.

884
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:09,120
Speaker 1: But a lot of bigger names probably won't be on

885
00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:12,000
Speaker 1: this football team. But Abrey Jones is I think had

886
00:45:12,040 --> 00:45:14,400
Speaker 1: a really nice bounce back year for himself. I actually

887
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:17,359
Speaker 1: wish this had been mine because it's a great call.

888
00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:22,279
Speaker 1: His absence was absolutely Noticeabigins Tennessee. If you went back

889
00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:24,840
Speaker 1: and watched, Uh, they ran right up the middle a

890
00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:28,719
Speaker 1: couple of times where the people replacing Abrey did not

891
00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:31,600
Speaker 1: play as well. It's a good call, Mike. Thanks. You

892
00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:34,680
Speaker 1: could have had it up to five minutes ago. I remember, Oh,

893
00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:37,000
Speaker 1: I better come up with one. That's a good call.

894
00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:39,799
Speaker 1: Good call. Alre we go, Here we go. Here's where

895
00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:43,799
Speaker 1: things stand as we had into week fifteen. Ashland, we'll

896
00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:47,800
Speaker 1: have the first pick today. She has six thirteen points,

897
00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:50,840
Speaker 1: so Brian, despite the fact that the last time we convened,

898
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:53,040
Speaker 1: had gotten a big zero from Melvin Gordon because he

899
00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:55,439
Speaker 1: had already used him, bounced back in a big way.

900
00:45:55,440 --> 00:45:57,319
Speaker 1: He had seventy four points to lead the way last

901
00:45:57,320 --> 00:45:59,920
Speaker 1: time at Ashland at fifty four, John, you had five

902
00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:04,000
Speaker 1: five and I had forty. So Ashland at six thirteen,

903
00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:06,560
Speaker 1: Brian at six fifteen, John at eight, and I'm at

904
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:09,880
Speaker 1: seven thirty nine on the season. These stats don't quite

905
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:13,840
Speaker 1: show the comeback though. If you're probably a couple of

906
00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:19,440
Speaker 1: hundred points down a chart that shows a graph just

907
00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:21,680
Speaker 1: for John. You don't want a pie graph, you want

908
00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:24,520
Speaker 1: a graph. It's trending well for you right now. Alright,

909
00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:27,520
Speaker 1: So to remind folks, we can use any player you like,

910
00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:29,640
Speaker 1: you can only use him once all year, and once

911
00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:31,600
Speaker 1: the players taking no one else can use them that week.

912
00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:35,000
Speaker 1: So Ashland you have the first pick. This is in

913
00:46:35,080 --> 00:46:39,319
Speaker 1: spite of Brian Ben Roethlisberger, Ben Roger like gave Way.

914
00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:41,960
Speaker 1: You had no idea of putting that one together. Yes

915
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:46,920
Speaker 1: I did. It's right here on my list. Because you said, oh,

916
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:48,640
Speaker 1: I hadn't thought about it. You did. At the same

917
00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:51,480
Speaker 1: time I came up with I'll take Drew Brees against

918
00:46:51,680 --> 00:46:55,680
Speaker 1: all right, John, I'm glad to be your number two.

919
00:46:56,400 --> 00:47:00,359
Speaker 1: Got me on that one, right, Um, thank you. I'm

920
00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:03,719
Speaker 1: gonna take Deshaun Watson against the Jets, all right, and

921
00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:07,000
Speaker 1: with that, I will wait until my last take a quarterback.

922
00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:10,839
Speaker 1: I will take Alvin Kamara on Monday night football haven't

923
00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:14,600
Speaker 1: used him yet. And I will go with Adam Thielan

924
00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:18,200
Speaker 1: from the Minnesota Vikings. Haven't used him yet. John, you

925
00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:20,319
Speaker 1: can take a running back, wide receiver, a tight end.

926
00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:23,279
Speaker 1: See it's the subtle thing that it makes Mike so

927
00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:25,960
Speaker 1: good at this. He knew we all went quarterbacks now

928
00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:37,800
Speaker 1: he can wait. That's I'm gonna go uh Ebron against

929
00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:40,200
Speaker 1: the Cowboys, Okay, Eric Ebron has been having a great

930
00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:44,840
Speaker 1: year at tight end obviously, Brian. Back to you, Barkley Nice,

931
00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:48,439
Speaker 1: he's been automatic every week, Ashley, and you get two

932
00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:53,440
Speaker 1: picks here. I'll go Christian McCaffrey and Michael Thomas. Caffrey

933
00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:56,840
Speaker 1: has been ridiculous and Michael Thomas is ridiculous as well.

934
00:47:57,040 --> 00:47:59,600
Speaker 1: All right, Brian, I'll go with great Kittle because I

935
00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:01,680
Speaker 1: haven't us to him yet this year. And boy, I

936
00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:04,120
Speaker 1: hope you saved you a few yards after last week

937
00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:07,120
Speaker 1: to ten in the first half, John, you're up with

938
00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:09,359
Speaker 1: a running back or a receiver. I learned something from Mike.

939
00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:13,560
Speaker 1: I didn't take Kittle because Mike says don't chase point.

940
00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:16,600
Speaker 1: I just don't unless he has a good week back

941
00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:20,080
Speaker 1: to back, right, we try not to chase those points.

942
00:48:20,120 --> 00:48:22,560
Speaker 1: So I'm looking at wide receiver, right, Yes, I'm gonna

943
00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:28,320
Speaker 1: go Thomas from New Orleans against a sliding carry d

944
00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:32,320
Speaker 1: Ashland for John in the circumstance, Antonio Brown, Antonio Brown,

945
00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:34,400
Speaker 1: it's a pretty good fallback right there. All right, I

946
00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:39,040
Speaker 1: will go. I'm gonna go Russell Wilson, even though it's

947
00:48:39,080 --> 00:48:41,719
Speaker 1: on the road. He threw four touchdowns versus San fran

948
00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:44,719
Speaker 1: last time. And at tight end, I'm going to go

949
00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:49,279
Speaker 1: Ian Thomas of the Carolina Panthers and brings you back

950
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:55,239
Speaker 1: to you John with a running back uh zeke okay,

952
00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:02,120
Speaker 1: There's chasing third three from last week. I just haven't

953
00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:05,279
Speaker 1: used him and I can be fantastic good matchup, and

954
00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:08,200
Speaker 1: you need a tight end, Ashlyn. Jered Cook please alright,

955
00:49:08,280 --> 00:49:12,320
Speaker 1: Jared Cook, alright, strong teams. Nobody is holding anything back anymore.
