Christian Galen is the groundskeeper at the baseball 10 00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:28,640 Speaker 1: grounds of Jacksonville.

What happened Philip 13 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:36,360 Speaker 1: last night? You know you you're at a baseball game. 14 00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 1: You have a couple of adult beverages, and suddenly a 15 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 1: nice young lady asked you to participate in a between 16 00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:45,159 Speaker 1: Indians game. Next thing you know, you're running down the 17 00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:49,559 Speaker 1: first base line south Paw. I would say, uh, very 18 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:53,760 Speaker 1: dangerously jumped in front of me. I would say, it 19 00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 1: caused me to fall, uh head over tea kettle. I 20 00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,720 Speaker 1: would say, got the great But the important thing uh 21 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:02,680 Speaker 1: as I got up, got my shoes on, still won 22 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 1: the race, and uh no hard feelings with Heuthball.

Let's get to Jaguars. O. T. A. S. 25 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,760 Speaker 1: Shall we Um. Let's start with Nick Foles. He spoke 26 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 1: today just a little early right after practice at the podium. 27 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 1: Unbelievable week for him and his family. For him to 28 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 1: even be back at work this week tells you a 29 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: lot about his role with this football team. Brian, you 30 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:29,680 Speaker 1: had a chance to be over there at that pressure. 31 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: What did you take away? Well, I thought, like you 32 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:33,759 Speaker 1: kind of mentioned, I think we were all surprised when 33 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:36,399 Speaker 1: Nick showed up this week, given that everything that he 34 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:38,479 Speaker 1: and his family and Tory have been through. So when 35 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:40,959 Speaker 1: he was back out there on the practice fields on Thursday, 36 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,120 Speaker 1: it was kind of like, wow, you know, this guy 37 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:46,759 Speaker 1: has been through an entire lot this weekend Um. Nick 38 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: was very, very touching with what he said. At a 39 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 1: point he almost kind of broke down. You can see 40 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 1: how this is still obviously you know, weighing heavily on him, 41 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 1: but he wanted to make it very clear that he 42 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 1: would not be here at practice if it wasn't for 43 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 1: his wife. He felt like to where he said that 44 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 1: it was important for him to be here with his teammates, 45 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 1: and he said very simply, you know, if she wanted 46 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: me to be at home right now, like I wouldn't 47 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 1: be here, I would be at home with her. And 48 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 1: it was just a really touching um the way that 49 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 1: he shared everything that he and his family have been 50 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 1: through over the last week or so. Philip, it's amazing 51 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 1: how quickly he's made himself a part of this Jacksonville community. 52 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: It seems like everybody's a fules fan of the sudden. 53 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 1: He ain't even thrown the pass in a game yet, 54 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: that's happened pretty quick around here. Yeah, certainly, and I 55 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 1: think obviously the circumstances would not wish on anybody, But 56 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,080 Speaker 1: to me, it's it's really such an indication of who 57 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,080 Speaker 1: Nick Foles is as a person, because we saw him 58 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 1: when he got up here, and it was a lot 59 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 1: of talk about how his faith has driven him. And 60 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 1: you know, that's really easy to say when you're just 61 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: signing a four year, eighty eight million dollar contract. You're 62 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 1: going to be the entrenched starter, you're You've got all 63 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 1: these great things happening in life. Your wife is pregnant, 64 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 1: she's next to your young daughter is there as well. 65 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 1: It's very easy to you know, sort of lean on 66 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 1: your faith and praise the Lord during those times. But 67 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 1: then to come out today, uh, after going through a 68 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 1: tragedy that you know, I think many people have gone through, 69 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 1: but it certainly never gets any easier. And to still 70 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 1: be that sort of rock and talk about the rock 71 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,959 Speaker 1: that your wife is and how your faith has uh, 72 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 1: you know, sort of fortified you during this time. I 73 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 1: think it really gives you a glimpse into who the 74 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 1: true Nick Foles is. And I think it's a guy 75 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:17,640 Speaker 1: that his teammates are going to continue to rally around. 76 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,679 Speaker 1: This is pretty remarkable, isn't it. It really is. And 77 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,239 Speaker 1: and Brian and Philip I couldn't agree more with with 78 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: what they said, so I mean, I'll just take it, 79 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 1: you know, a step further. In terms of his performance today, 80 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 1: I thought he was outstanding. I mean, you can see 81 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: such an upgrade in terms of his ability to look 82 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 1: off a safety throw, the deep ball, hit the receiver 83 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: and stride. I thought I thought one throw in particular 84 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 1: today was U was about as good as you can 85 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: do it, and uh and there were others as well. 86 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: So again, I you know, to already be back it 87 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: it looking like it's such a high level uh with 88 00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: within echoing everything that these guys said about him per 89 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 1: smally and it's just incredibly impressive individual. And to hear 90 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 1: a guy like a j Boye earlier in the week 91 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 1: talk about the quarterback the way he was talking about 92 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 1: the quarterback, that the windows aren't really there, that that 93 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 1: he had to go interset balls and make plays last 94 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: year because the ball is somewhere that the defensive back 95 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 1: can't get to it. That's a that's a major step 96 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,159 Speaker 1: for this organization, not just the position in the offense. 97 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: I mean, it's this could be a huge step to 98 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:26,919 Speaker 1: where this Jaguars team goes in the next four or 99 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 1: five years here. Yeah, So we've seen, uh, just a 100 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 1: tremendous amount of plays from fall so far. I think 101 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 1: one of the places you're talking about Hayes was a 102 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 1: deep ball to Ketling Cole. You've seen Keitling Cole make 103 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 1: a ton of plays almost kind of going back to 104 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: how he looked his rookie season. And I'm sure that 105 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,599 Speaker 1: a lot of that has to do with who's on 106 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,479 Speaker 1: the throwing end of those passes. So you were seeing, 107 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,720 Speaker 1: you know, these receivers have a lot of confidence within 108 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: Nick Boles in that hotel, and um, you know, these 109 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 1: guys are really looking forward to doing a lot better 110 00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: than last year. Went Philip, are you buying it? Are 111 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 1: you buying the Folds hype and he's the man and 112 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:04,720 Speaker 1: gonna be the future here or what? Yeah, I would 113 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 1: caution everybody to maybe tap the brakes just a little bit. 114 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:10,719 Speaker 1: You don't have Jalen Ramsey out there. The contact is 115 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:14,160 Speaker 1: not permitted, they're not wearing pads. But certainly for what 116 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: may going into June, he's hitting all the checkpoints and 117 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 1: that's really all you can do this time. You're not 118 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: winning the super Bowl this time of year, and as 119 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 1: Doug Martin, like I said, you're not really winning jobs 120 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: this time of year. So you know, I don't think 121 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 1: the SEC South was one out there on the practice 122 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 1: field today, but certainly I think for where you want 123 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 1: to be at this time of year, Nick Foles is 124 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 1: taking the Jaguars right there, all right. Philip Eland from 125 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 1: The Times Union, Hayes Carline from Tintin XL Brian Jackson 126 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 1: from Channel four with us on this media round table. 127 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: You know, all this offensive talk, we hear about how 128 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:44,840 Speaker 1: Nick Foles utilizes tight ends and and how John d. 129 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 1: Philippo would like to utilize tight ends. We've seen this 130 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: in action of course in Philadelphia. That's the storyline all this, 131 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 1: but we've all kind of had a chance recently to 132 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 1: talk to some of these tight ends. That's a real 133 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 1: thing too, and how they're working with tight ends and 134 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,479 Speaker 1: and even putting him back in the back old sum 135 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,479 Speaker 1: in lieu of a fullback at some points that could 136 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 1: be something in this offense too. Hey, this is uh 137 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,279 Speaker 1: the tight ends will have a major role in this 138 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 1: offensive sounds like yeah. I thought it was interesting when 139 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: we talked to Flip and he said, really, it might 140 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 1: be outside a quarterback the hardest position to master in 141 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: the offense because of everything that they asked them to do, uh, 142 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,920 Speaker 1: in terms of lining up in the backfield, blocking, obviously 143 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 1: being an asset in the passing game. And uh, I 144 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 1: think it all starts with Josh Oliver. If he is 145 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: that Yanniken gok Way third round steal uh and is 146 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 1: able to have that instant impact as a rookie. H 147 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: it would do wonders for this offense, and I hope 148 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 1: as a rookie though it's very tough as workie, but 149 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 1: it's tough for a pass rusher. And Jhn had what 150 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: eight sacks as a rookie. I mean if eight sacks 151 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:48,719 Speaker 1: as a rookie for a tight end would probably be 152 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 1: what what would you say the equivalent that would be 153 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: if he gave a five hundred yard six hundred yard 154 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: receiving season, which I think right now would be Uh. 155 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I think anybody in this building would sign 156 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,160 Speaker 1: up for that right now. I think with what strikes 157 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 1: me about Josh is the consistency. It's rookies will flash 158 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 1: here and there, but it seems like Josh has been 159 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: a guy that consistently is showing you something as a receiver. 160 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 1: And when I asked Doug about him before practice, I 161 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 1: thought it was interesting. He said, everything that we saw 162 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 1: on tape with Josh has translated to the field, he said, 163 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 1: So that's been great. We're seeing how well he can run, 164 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 1: we're seeing the great catch radius, uh, and eagerness to learn. 165 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 1: So he said, he's really happy with where he's at, 166 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 1: and he always cautions that you know, the contact aspect 167 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 1: hasn't come into play yet, but you know, he he 168 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 1: referenced that he thinks his blocking technique from what he's 169 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 1: seen so far in the drills is good. So uh, 170 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: Josh Oliver will be one of the key players to 171 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 1: watch once the pads go on in training camp gets 172 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 1: going here and in late July with the paths go on, 173 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 1: first second day August. Sure, so Oliver one, I guess 174 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: it's pretty much consistent. Slam is the second guy. He's 175 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: the veteran, he's the fifth year player. He's had good 176 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,560 Speaker 1: numbers in Dallas till he got hurt it last year 177 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 1: and that's been his story. Ken Swains stay healthy and 178 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: I talked to him today about that, and it's just 179 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 1: he's had some bad luck, you know, some fractures. Is 180 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: nothing about not being prepared. But at some point he's 181 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: got to move past that. I don't know how you 182 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 1: can really plan to move past that except go play football. Right, 183 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 1: But those are the top two guys right now. Swain's 184 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 1: gotta be right there as well, and we'll see what 185 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 1: really he has. What do you think? Yeah, those are 186 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 1: obviously the top two guys that you know, foals for 187 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: whatever reason. You know, he's a quarterback too. There may 188 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: not be a quarterback maybe outside of Brady that uses 189 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 1: tight ends as effectively his foalds Um in the NFL. 190 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:39,559 Speaker 1: So it'll be interesting to see, like we said, if 191 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,719 Speaker 1: um those guys can stay healthy. And one thing that 192 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:44,839 Speaker 1: really stood out about Josh Oliver and talking to him 193 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 1: is saying that his roommate right now is garden to Minshew, 194 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 1: so they've been drawing up plays on the white board 195 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: in the hotel room and things of that nature. So 196 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 1: those are the types of things that you want to 197 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,600 Speaker 1: hear a rookie saying that they're putting in the extra 198 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 1: time because like like Hayes mentioned, Flip said, his f 199 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 1: tight end position is the hardest, second hardest position in 200 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,440 Speaker 1: their offense outside of quarterback. So those are the types 201 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 1: of things that you really want to hear, especially a 202 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: rookie uh saying at this time of the year, Philip, 203 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:13,199 Speaker 1: they've thrown so much money at this position over the 204 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:16,960 Speaker 1: years here and it just hasn't worked out. Can this 205 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:19,679 Speaker 1: finally be the answer? Is this or it's gonna take 206 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 1: a little time. I know you want him to to 207 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,440 Speaker 1: put up seven hundred yards hazes this year and Oliver. 208 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 1: But I mean it's not. I don't think it's a 209 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 1: one year fix, right, Yeah, I mean I don't think 210 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 1: you're gonna suddenly look back and say, Wow, what a 211 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: dynamic position group this is. But it's a position group 212 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 1: that at the professional football level makes sense, which last 213 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 1: year it did not. They were pulling guys off the 214 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: street mid season to try to fill in holes and 215 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:48,320 Speaker 1: to just even have stability, to have, you know, consistent 216 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 1: production that's on an upward swing compared to where they 217 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 1: were last year, where they have been in previous years. 218 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 1: I think that is going to be a huge difference. Uh, 219 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 1: you know, whether that is seven hundred yards, but even 220 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 1: four hundred yards from a tight end would give the 221 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:02,960 Speaker 1: offense something that it really hasn't had here in a 222 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 1: long time. And whether it's you know, four hundred yards 223 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 1: from Josh Oliver, uh, you know, three fifty yards from 224 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 1: Jess Swam, a couple hundred yards from O'Shaughnessy, whoever else 225 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:12,960 Speaker 1: is there Suddenly to look up it's wow, Okay, there's 226 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,200 Speaker 1: nine hundred thousand yards you're getting from the tight end position. 227 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: I think the Jaguars would sign up for that right 228 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 1: away all day, right. I mean, they haven't had that 229 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: forever around here for a number of reasons. Let's go 230 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: to defense, fellas, shall we. Uh, Okay, everybody's excited about 231 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: the defensive sounds like Josh Allen is going to play 232 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 1: defensive end according to Todd Wash and nothing else. Is 233 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 1: that the right move, haz, Yeah, it absolutely is the 234 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: right move. I mean, Josh Allen, it was incredible fortune 235 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 1: that he fell to seven and you watch him at Kentucky, 236 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 1: and sure, he might be good in coverage, but Josh 237 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 1: Allen is a game wrecker, is a pass rusher, and 238 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: that's what the Jaguars need here. So it doesn't make 239 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 1: a ton of sense. Occasionally, you know, Willie drop maybe, sure, 240 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: I mean that Molik Jackson used to drop into coverage 241 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:04,320 Speaker 1: every so often. So, I mean, but it was pleasing 242 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: to hear from Todd Wash that Josh Allen is here 243 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 1: to rush the quarterback, to get after him, to be disruptive. 244 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 1: And uh, I think when you've got a lineup of 245 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: Yannike and Gockway on one side, Josh Allen on the other, 246 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 1: and you've got Calais Campbell and Marcel Darius, I think 247 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:24,560 Speaker 1: in passing situations. Uh, the Jaguars are as good as 248 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 1: any team right now in professional football, and Philip, they're 249 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,839 Speaker 1: gonna run at four three. That was Todd WASH's clear 250 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: cut answer the other day. There might be some other 251 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 1: things that happened, but there are four three defense. He 252 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 1: made that clear. Yeah, it was interesting. You know, I 253 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:39,959 Speaker 1: thought it would be reasonable to add some three or 254 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 1: four wrinkles if you add a guy like Josh Allen, 255 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:44,320 Speaker 1: if you have a you know, you hire a defensive 256 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: assistant like Dom Capers. But clearly Todd Wash is comfortable 257 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:50,599 Speaker 1: with what he knows and what they've done. And you know, 258 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 1: obviously seen the turnovers and the sacks were much higher. 259 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,320 Speaker 1: To the defense overall seemed to play at a much 260 00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 1: higher level. But still last year it was a very 261 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:01,439 Speaker 1: solid group with the hand that was dealt, which was 262 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,719 Speaker 1: an offense that was without a pulse. So I mean, 263 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 1: I still think that, you know, Todd Wash is probably right. 264 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 1: I do think that he could maybe be a little 265 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:13,679 Speaker 1: more creative, maybe untied things just a little bit. And 266 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 1: and maybe he will. And you know, he's not required 267 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:17,439 Speaker 1: to tell us, Okay, well yeah we're fourth three. But 268 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:19,960 Speaker 1: here's what I'm thinking on third down in the opener, 269 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 1: here's what I'm thinking on, you know, for third and 270 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 1: long situations. Here's what I'm thinking of for a second 271 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 1: and intermediate situation. So I'm sure there's some wrinkles to 272 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,680 Speaker 1: be had, but he's not going to have this holistic change. 273 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: It's going to be a four three that you've seen 274 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 1: here since Todd wash has been the defensive coordinator. It'd 275 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 1: be pretty cool if we had that list, So, I mean, 276 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 1: you know, I'd like it. Yeah, it would be pretty 277 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:38,679 Speaker 1: nice to see. You wouldn't share it, right, No, of 278 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:42,559 Speaker 1: course we wouldn't share that at all. No, Um, Josh Allen, 279 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 1: I mean, did this guy physically is just the first 280 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:47,320 Speaker 1: time you see set eyes on him when he walked 281 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:49,080 Speaker 1: in the building the other the other months, was like, 282 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,439 Speaker 1: oh my goodness. I saw him on draft night and 283 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 1: I was thought like, okay, maybe he's the same size 284 00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 1: as Uniqun gug Way. Then so him out here for 285 00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 1: the first day of otes and I was like, wow, 286 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 1: its guns Like, he's a lot bigger than Unique and Ghagway. 287 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 1: So as soon as that guy can get on a 288 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 1: he can already see his explosion. And you know, the 289 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 1: couple of drills. Obviously, he hasn't really done much the 290 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:13,440 Speaker 1: last couple of days of O T A S. But 291 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 1: you can see the explosion. You can see why this 292 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 1: guy kind of wrecked SEC offenses last year. Yeah, that 293 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 1: SEC Defensive Player of the Year. Let's move to the 294 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 1: secondary now. A J boy A talked earlier this week 295 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 1: and he's at ot as this year. I think he 296 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 1: has there's a sickness in the family. Last year's father 297 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 1: was not well and I think his father is well again. 298 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,679 Speaker 1: So A J's back, which is good news. Um, and 299 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:37,440 Speaker 1: a lot of people might call this a bounce back 300 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 1: year for him. I don't know. I mean, he's still 301 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:42,439 Speaker 1: played okay, but this this team as a whole, just 302 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:43,959 Speaker 1: didn't perform well at the end of the year. I 303 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 1: don't know if he would want to go there. What 304 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:47,839 Speaker 1: do you guys making a J boy Phil, What do 305 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:51,319 Speaker 1: you think about his season coming up and where he 306 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:53,079 Speaker 1: is just here and in the other day. Yeah, I 307 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 1: think the expectation with a J boy was set so 308 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 1: high because I mean I think back to seen they 309 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: were real think arguments. Could the Jaguars have both of 310 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 1: the starting first team All Pro corners like it was 311 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:07,800 Speaker 1: reasonable to think Jalen Ramsay and aj Boy it could 312 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 1: have been the first team All Pros and they were 313 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 1: very closer. Both Pro Bowlers, obviously both All pros. UH 314 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 1: certainly could have been very close. So, you know, I 315 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 1: don't think he was bad last year. He contends that 316 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 1: he didn't give up any touched on passes throughout the 317 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:21,880 Speaker 1: entire season, which would be interesting. I don't know, off 318 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 1: the top, I had have to go back to my 319 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 1: notes and look, that doesn't seem right. It felt like 320 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 1: maybe not quite as many plays were made, but that 321 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 1: really was the defense as a whole. Going back, you know, 322 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 1: the sacks dropped tremendously, the the touchdown dropped. There just 323 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 1: none of those splash plays that were so important in 324 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 1: that we're just not there. In So, I don't know 325 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 1: that it's really uh a bounce back year for a 326 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 1: per se. But if he considers himself among that upper 327 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 1: echelon of cornerbacks, he probably doesn't need to bring it 328 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 1: a little bit more this year. I think I think 329 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 1: he's gonna have a huge year. Yeah, it's always hard 330 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,000 Speaker 1: to gauge. He could have a very good year and 331 00:14:57,040 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 1: have two picks, but I think I think it's not 332 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:03,240 Speaker 1: unreasonable to think a J. Boyer will finish with four 333 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 1: or five picks and uh and I think a lot 334 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 1: of other big plays, you know, in in crucial situations. 335 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 1: So I think a J. Boyer is the seventeen version, 336 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 1: not so much version because I think he was playing 337 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 1: through some things. I think a J. Boyer is a 338 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 1: fantastic corner in this league, and the fact that you 339 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 1: know he's playing opposite Jalen really puts him in a 340 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 1: in a great spot. I think the pass rush will 341 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,200 Speaker 1: be better, which will lead to more opportunities, and they're 342 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 1: gonna be playing with the lead more uh and so 343 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna have the opportunities to get back 344 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 1: to uh that seen level of playmaking, and I think 345 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 1: a J. Boy will be the centerpiece of that a 346 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 1: great majority of those secs two years ago. We're with 347 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 1: the lead, that's just how and you go out and 348 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 1: make plays and quarterbacks are forcing throws back there they 349 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 1: can make plays, that's right a J. I mean, the 350 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 1: guy's stories unbelievable, undrafted guy worked his way up um. 351 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 1: But hearing from him this week, he just seem to 352 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 1: have that swagger of a couple of years ago back. 353 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 1: You know you didn't wouldn't hear a lot from him 354 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 1: last year in the locker room. He was just kind 355 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:09,800 Speaker 1: of struggling through it, I think, And we didn't really 356 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 1: talk a lot last year. You make it. I think 357 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:14,720 Speaker 1: he's I mean, I think he's naturally kind of a 358 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 1: maybe a quiet guy. But it's kind of interested to see, like, 359 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 1: who's gonna be there? I guess their verbal leader in 360 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: that secondary. You know. Now they used to say that 361 00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 1: Barry Church was their quarterback of their secondary. Obviously he's 362 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 1: not around. We know who's gonna be you know, vocal 363 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 1: at least different leader back there? Yea, Well we know 364 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 1: once twenty comes into building, that's a completely different story. 365 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:39,200 Speaker 1: But um, during this time, boy, while Jalen is still 366 00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 1: doing his own thing and down in Nashville, it's interesting 367 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 1: to see, you know, how Boy I gets these younger 368 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 1: guys up to speed. I mean they don't have a 369 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 1: lot of experience, I mean really outside of you know, 370 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 1: d J. Hayden and slots. Uh. You know, if one 371 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 1: of those guys were to go down, it's like, you know, what, 372 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 1: what do the Jaguars have left? So I think you've 373 00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:00,200 Speaker 1: got to breaking into new starters at safety is well, 374 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 1: so that's gonna be a lot of Uh, it's gonna 375 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,360 Speaker 1: be really interesting to see how the four or five 376 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 1: of those guys in the secondary kind of all get 377 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,280 Speaker 1: on the same page because they haven't really spent that 378 00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 1: much time together. All Right, final thoughts here, guys, Philip. 379 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,480 Speaker 1: Next week four o T A S. I know we're 380 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 1: all looking forward to that and then the mini camp 381 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 1: after that. But next week four O T as left 382 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:21,440 Speaker 1: to go. What do you expect next week and what 383 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,119 Speaker 1: do you have coming up in your coverage and the 384 00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: TU next week? I would expect hopefully more players here. 385 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 1: I think that's maybe the one thing that you know. 386 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 1: No Leonard for net the last couple of days, No 387 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:33,960 Speaker 1: Yannik Gogaway the last couple days, and these are voluntary. 388 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 1: That's I'll find it good. And each player has different reasons. 389 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:40,119 Speaker 1: But I think if you give Doug Murron some truth serum, 390 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,679 Speaker 1: he probably would like maybe a little bit higher attendance. 391 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:47,119 Speaker 1: But yeah, our coverage, some good stuff on safeties from 392 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,720 Speaker 1: my colleague Gary Smith's coming up. We'll be talking, talking 393 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,399 Speaker 1: and tackling the nick Fole situation some more. My colleague 394 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,680 Speaker 1: En Fornet wrote a really good calumn in today's paper 395 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:56,639 Speaker 1: talking to Billy Donovan about going through a similar situation. 396 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 1: So I'd encourage anybody who hasn't read that yet to 397 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 1: go online the Jacksonall Dog Commen do something. It's excellent, 398 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:03,920 Speaker 1: really good reading. Read that this morning. Hey's what you 399 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 1: got on Tent Tent coming up? We will have an 400 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 1: interview with Josh Oliver later today. I enjoyed getting a 401 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 1: chance to speak with him, and uh we will be 402 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:16,880 Speaker 1: breaking everything down as best we can all day long. 403 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 1: I love it, Brian. How about Channel four this weekend 404 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:21,840 Speaker 1: to get something coming up with Chris Connley. He's, you know, 405 00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,800 Speaker 1: the one receiver spent the most time with Nick Fos 406 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 1: up to this point, so be interesting to see, you 407 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:29,719 Speaker 1: know how he can kind of get some of these 408 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 1: other younger receivers who aren't his used to number seven 409 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:34,199 Speaker 1: back there up to speed. So that'll be coming up 410 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:37,119 Speaker 1: this weekend as well. Sounds great, guys. I really appreciate it, 411 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:40,160 Speaker 1: Brian Jackson.
