Speaker 4: that we haven't done in the last say three weeks.

16
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 4: But you know, we've got some things to correct. Guys

17
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 4: have been Guys have been focused and still doing the

18
00:00:57,680 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 4: right things and looking forward to going over to Tampa

19
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 4: playing a.

20
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 2: Game with the with the sky falling, how do you

21
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 2: maintain that positivity?

22
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what it is. Right the sky is falling.

23
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,040
Speaker 4: I mean, the positivity is the fact that we're still

24
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 4: in first place, we're still fourth in the AFC and

25
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 4: and everything is still right in front of us. You know,

26
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 4: our goal when we started the season was to win

27
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:20,760
Speaker 4: the AFC South and and uh that goal has never

28
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 4: changed and it hasn't changed.

29
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 3: And so you know, that's the positivity right there.

30
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 4: And then at the same time, just continue to coach

31
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 4: our players hard, continue to push them. And you know,

32
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:33,960
Speaker 4: we are getting some guys healthy this time of year,

33
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,840
Speaker 4: which is good. Uh, so you know, we need to

34
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:38,680
Speaker 4: be making our our move at this time.

35
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 2: Coach, how do you keep a team a building from

36
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 2: being tight in this type of moment when there is

37
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:49,520
Speaker 2: pressure and and everything going on to perform and play

38
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:51,880
Speaker 2: at a high level on all levels of the organization.

39
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 2: How do you keep a team from tightening up this way?

40
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 2: I think, and I truly believe it starts with me.

41
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:00,080
Speaker 2: If they if I'm tight, then they're gonna be tight.

42
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 2: If I'm loose, They're going to be loose. And you know,

43
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 2: I I.

44
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 4: Believe that they'll they'll feed off of that and to

45
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 4: kind of feed off of that energy. But at the

46
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 4: same time, they got to understand that that, you know,

47
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 4: there's accountability in this business, and we got to make

48
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,920
Speaker 4: sure that we hold each other accountable, myself included. And

49
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:16,799
Speaker 4: and uh, but at the same time, let's go out

50
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 4: have fun at practice. When it's time to work, it's

51
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 4: time to work. Uh, let's go enjoy these moments. These

52
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 4: are you don't get many of these. And and again

53
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 4: we're uh, we're in the conversation at the end of

54
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 4: the year, right for postseason and all that, and and

55
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,360
Speaker 4: that's that's what you want. And so that that gives

56
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 4: you a little juice and motivation. Here, you know, this

57
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 4: last month, here we.

58
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:38,080
Speaker 2: Are Thursday afternoon. The big topic is the unknown, which

59
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,560
Speaker 2: is your quarterback and the concussion protocol. And I know

60
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 2: that you're somewhat limited what you can say and can't say.

61
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:48,519
Speaker 2: What's that like dealing with the concussion protocol for a

62
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 2: starting quarterback.

63
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 4: Well, it's really not so much as it's just any

64
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:55,799
Speaker 4: player that goes into the protocol, you know, when you're

65
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 4: talking health right there there, there's stages and steps that

66
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 4: the player has to go through. Trey Herndon just went

67
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 4: through it a couple weeks ago and and came out

68
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:05,519
Speaker 4: came out good, but you got to follow a certain

69
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 4: regiment and steps and and and that you just don't

70
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 4: rush him back to the practice field.

71
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:10,919
Speaker 5: So you know, c J.

72
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 4: Bethard is obviously getting the bulk of the reps. He's

73
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 4: done a great job, you know, in Trevor's absence this week,

74
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 4: and and but yet Trevor's still a part.

75
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:18,960
Speaker 3: Of the meetings.

76
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 4: He can do the meetings, he can he can be

77
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 4: around the guys and just whatever he can tolerate. And

78
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 4: so you know he's trending obviously in the right direction.

79
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 4: But again, you go in just like we did a

80
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 4: few weeks ago, you know, with with CJ getting getting

81
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,240
Speaker 4: prepared and and and possibly playing in this.

82
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,960
Speaker 2: Game hypothetical here, let's say CJ has to play. What

83
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 2: does CJ do best?

84
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 4: CJ does a nice job of organizing and let's call

85
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 4: it managing the offense.

86
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 3: He knows the system, he knows where to go with

87
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 3: the football.

88
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 4: He he does a good job of utilizing everybody that

89
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 4: at his disposal. Right, it's it's not uh, you know,

90
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,360
Speaker 4: focusing on Calvin, focus in on Evan, which we will use.

91
00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 3: Them, don't get me wrong.

92
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:00,160
Speaker 4: And we got to use them but but he does

93
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 4: a nice job of getting the ball into the hands

94
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 4: of the open guy and manages the team that way.

95
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 4: He's got an aggressive personality. He does have a big

96
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 4: arm where he can he can push the ball down

97
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 4: the field if need be. And and he's a good leader.

98
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:18,359
Speaker 4: Guys really do gravitate to him. He's smart, he's calm

99
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 4: in the pocket, he's calm in the huddle, calm around

100
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 4: the football team. And that's what you want out of

101
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 4: your backup.

102
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 2: Head coach Doug Peterson with us, this is a Buccaneers defense.

103
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 2: It has a lot of veteran players on it. I mean,

104
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 2: guys that have been around in that system for a

105
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:31,599
Speaker 2: long time.

106
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 5: So what is it about that group?

107
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 2: What stands out about the defense this year in Tampa?

108
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 4: Well, I think you look at him, you know they do.

109
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,040
Speaker 4: But they got a mixture of some youth in there too, right,

110
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 4: They've drafted some young players, you know, particularly up front,

111
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 4: and and they're all kind of you know, intermixed and

112
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,160
Speaker 4: intertwined in there, and they're playing. They're playing pretty good,

113
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 4: especially this time of year. And and you know, Videvea

114
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,679
Speaker 4: is a big here's another big, physical guy in the middle.

115
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:01,480
Speaker 3: I mean, Fortnite's gonna have his hands.

116
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 4: Full all day and and we do the best we

117
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 4: can to help help him, you know, with some double

118
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,599
Speaker 4: teams and combos and things of that nature. You know,

119
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 4: there's secondary is a veteran group. They're getting some guys

120
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 4: healthy as well and going to be back. And and

121
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,160
Speaker 4: as you mentioned, they've been around Todd Bowles in his

122
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 4: system now for a while, whether he's the head coach

123
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 4: or the decordinator, so they they know, they know this

124
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 4: scheme really well. You know, these two linebackers, threely three

125
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:26,279
Speaker 4: guys that can they can fly.

126
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 3: They're big and long on the edge, you know. And

127
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,719
Speaker 3: and so it's another it's another.

128
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,120
Speaker 4: Challenge, you know, offensively for our for our guys up front,

129
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,599
Speaker 4: our backs, our tight ends to to compete against this group.

130
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 2: Thank goodness, Vita Vea has to rotate. He doesn't play

131
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 2: every down. But getting back to Todd Bowles, who you

132
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:47,720
Speaker 2: mentioned there have been there for quite some time as

133
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,919
Speaker 2: DC and then now the head head coach. He runs

134
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,040
Speaker 2: an aggressive defense, doesn't He loves to blitz owned dogs,

135
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 2: man coverage, blitz is that's the challenge. Is that the

136
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 2: challenging part of his defense.

137
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 4: It is you know, we haven't seen as many pressures

138
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,280
Speaker 4: lately that we're gonna see Sunday. He's playing a lot

139
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 4: more man coverage than he has in the past. But again,

140
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,360
Speaker 4: he's got a group that can do it. And and

141
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 4: I remember when he was with you know, Bruce arians

142
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 4: and in Arizona, and it was almost a blitz fest

143
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 4: every every snap. And he's kind of brought that mindset

144
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,600
Speaker 4: and that mentality, and he's staying aggressive that way. And

145
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,679
Speaker 4: and and he knows too that his offense is playing

146
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:25,920
Speaker 4: better and uh, opportunity, you know, opportunistic defensively to create

147
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 4: some takeaways, give the ball back to their offense. Baker's

148
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:32,719
Speaker 4: playing really well, taking care of the football NFC Player

149
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:34,720
Speaker 4: of the Week you know, last week for his performance

150
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 4: and and and rightfully so, so you know you are

151
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,280
Speaker 4: you're seeing that aggressive mindset out of out of Todd

152
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:41,919
Speaker 4: and this defense.

153
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 2: Vitave is the one guy that we mentioned standing out.

154
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 2: He's three hundred and fifty pounds, hard to miss one's out. Yeah,

155
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 2: but Antoine Winfield in the back end might be one

156
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:53,640
Speaker 2: of the best safeties in the league. This is a

157
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 2: guy that you guys, probably I'm sure are going to

158
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:56,599
Speaker 2: say Hey, where's he at?

159
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:57,599
Speaker 3: Exactly?

160
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 4: This guy he's a ballhawk. He's punched the ball out,

161
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,720
Speaker 4: he's creating takeaways. He's a good blitzer, good tackler. He's

162
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,279
Speaker 4: all over the field. He's going to play the post safety.

163
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,159
Speaker 4: He'll be a box safety, he'll be a half field safety.

164
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 5: You know.

165
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 4: And they're not afraid to use him, you know, in

166
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 4: this defensive scheme. So, yeah, you got to know where thirty.

167
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 3: One is and when when you have the football.

168
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 4: And he's he's coming to tackle you, you better, you

169
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 4: better take care of the football.

170
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 2: Head coach Doug Peterson with us Baker Mayfield last week

171
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 2: was the third quarterback to deliver a perfect passer rating

172
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 2: in a game this season in the NFL. So where's

173
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 2: Baker right now? When you have a guy like Evans

174
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 2: on the outside and then God went underneath, that's a

175
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 2: pretty good combination.

176
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 5: Where are they offensively?

177
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:42,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that's just it, you know.

178
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 4: And Baker does a nice job of getting the ball

179
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,840
Speaker 4: to these guys, and their offensive coordinator canal Is, he's

180
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 4: he's done a nice job of kind of orchestrating these

181
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 4: guys getting open and you know, some of us to

182
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 4: play action pass down the field. Evans is a big

183
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 4: target obviously, and can run. Godwin is the quick you

184
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 4: know underneath guy that put the ball in his hands,

185
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 4: he can he can take at the distance. So you know,

186
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 4: it's and Baker's always had an aggressive mindset, you know,

187
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 4: wherever he's been, and and you know I've played and

188
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 4: coached against him in the past. And big arm, you know,

189
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 4: powerful arm could push it down the field. But at

190
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 4: the same time, you know, we can also you know,

191
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 4: make that one mistake and hopefully our guys are prepared

192
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 4: to to you know, maybe get an interception or at

193
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 4: least a takeaway.

194
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 2: The core of their offense seems to run through Rashad White,

195
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 2: running back, slash, you know, throwing the ball. He's he's

196
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 2: a heck of a football player. The focus has got

197
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:40,960
Speaker 2: to be on him. I would imagine if you're a

198
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:42,800
Speaker 2: part of that defense, your defense.

199
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 4: One hundred, you know, and we've always prided ourselves each week,

200
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,320
Speaker 4: you know, and stopping the run and try to minimize it,

201
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 4: you know, minimize or at least eliminate explosives.

202
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 3: You know, we got to get better in a couple

203
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 3: of those areas there. And and you know, again when

204
00:08:57,520 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 3: he's rolling for a quarterback.

205
00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 4: When you run game and screen game and some of

206
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 4: that stuff is going, it just helps you as a quarterback.

207
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 3: And Baker obviously.

208
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:09,439
Speaker 4: Is is using these guys you know, to his advantage.

209
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:11,600
Speaker 3: And he's another one you got to account for.

210
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 2: Are you getting healthier on defense? You know, you've been

211
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 2: a few games without a number of guys, Cisco, Tyson, Campbell.

212
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 2: Chance to get them back? Maybe this week.

213
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 4: We are good time to start getting some guys back,

214
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:26,040
Speaker 4: you know, Tyson and Cisco of practice this week and

215
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:28,320
Speaker 4: you know, done a nice job. We're going to continue

216
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,240
Speaker 4: to push them, you know, these next few days leading

217
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 4: up to this football game. And and you know, the

218
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:34,600
Speaker 4: biggest thing really I think with you know, Cisco has

219
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 4: played recently, obviously, Tyson's been the one that's missed some time.

220
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:40,720
Speaker 4: So just getting him back out there and kind of

221
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 4: getting his sea legs and back under him a little bit.

222
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:45,680
Speaker 4: We'll take a little bit of time, but but it'll

223
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:47,319
Speaker 4: be good to get you know, number thirty two back

224
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 4: on the field, all right.

225
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:51,680
Speaker 2: Coach final thought here and asking Travis, etc. And Junior

226
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:53,840
Speaker 2: in the locker room yesterday just about the big picture

227
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:57,720
Speaker 2: and playing better down the stretch, and he said, basically,

228
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,440
Speaker 2: we just don't need to talk about it. We got

229
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:03,080
Speaker 2: to be about it as a team. The playoff football's

230
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 2: here now. Big game on the road this week, home

231
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 2: next week, and then finishing Tennessee three games in a row.

232
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 2: Haven't been able to finish the job in a game,

233
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 2: and the guys in the locker room feel that. But

234
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 2: at some point you got to go be about it.

235
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:17,560
Speaker 2: I thought that was a good comment.

236
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 4: It's a great comment, and I'm glad the guys are

237
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 4: seeing it that way, you know, and really feel it

238
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 4: and understand it, because that's that's where we you know,

239
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 4: that's where we need to be as a team. And again,

240
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:30,839
Speaker 4: it's not about putting pressure on yourselves or panicking or

241
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 4: nothing like that. It's it's about going out and just

242
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 4: doing your job and being about it right and and

243
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 4: taking care of the football, you know, stopping the run

244
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 4: on defense, you know, creating some takeaways on defense, you know,

245
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 4: scoring touchdowns in the red zone.

246
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:46,760
Speaker 3: All those types of things.

247
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 4: I mean, those are things in our control and we

248
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:50,959
Speaker 4: just got to get back to doing that.

249
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:52,880
Speaker 2: Playing clean football.

250
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:54,560
Speaker 3: Exact clean, complimentary football.

251
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 5: Coach.

252
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 2: Thanks for the time is always good luck to you,

253
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 2: Thank you, plenty more ahead. This is the Doug Peterson's

Speaker 1: Welcome Back. The Doug Peterson Show continues right now.

256
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 2: Welcome back, JP, Shadwick, Jeff Logman in the Hyundai studios

Speaker 2: of the Miller Electric Center. The Doug Peterson Show presented

258
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,520
Speaker 2: by Fresh from Florida Food tastes better when it's grown

259
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:35,439
Speaker 2: closer to home thanks to head coach Doug Peterson joining

260
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:37,920
Speaker 2: us in the opening segment each and every week and

261
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 2: big week this week the Jaguars and the Buccaneers and

262
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 2: interesting thoughts from the head coach on you know, trying

263
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:49,400
Speaker 2: to avoid tightness in a locker room in a building

264
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,319
Speaker 2: this time of year when things aren't going so well

265
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 2: three weeks in a row. The division race is as

266
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,080
Speaker 2: tight as it can be. And what was his answer?

267
00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,600
Speaker 2: It said, basically, you know, if I'm calm, they'll be cool.

268
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,640
Speaker 2: That's how Doug kind of rolls. Well, he's dead on

269
00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 2: the money, you know, and the coach is the one

270
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 2: that gives the marching orders, that gives the vibe to

271
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:13,720
Speaker 2: the team. And if you had asked, I think most

272
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:17,080
Speaker 2: fans or Doug said, hey, look, you know, how would

273
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:20,839
Speaker 2: you like to be at the latter part of this

274
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 2: season first place in your division, with the division completely

275
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 2: in your control, with three games to go, would you

276
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,720
Speaker 2: take that? Yeah, I think a lot of people would.

277
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 2: I mean, but you know, when you lose three games,

278
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,679
Speaker 2: there's a tendency to think that things are bad and

279
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:39,080
Speaker 2: they're not going to get better. But hopefully this team,

280
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:41,440
Speaker 2: and I believe that they can will get better this

281
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:45,080
Speaker 2: week with whatever quarterback that they can play with. And

282
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:48,680
Speaker 2: I think CJ is more than capable. And this Tampa

283
00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:52,600
Speaker 2: Bay football team has been on a roll, but they

284
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:56,160
Speaker 2: haven't really beat a top team. I mean, if you

285
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 2: look at who they've been beating, Atlanta, Carolina and Green

286
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:03,359
Speaker 2: Bay on a three game winning streak, where's the superpower

287
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 2: in that three Yeah? I mean green Bay was playing

288
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:11,080
Speaker 2: better or not like top of the NFC or anything. No,

289
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 2: you go back and you look at who they San

290
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 2: Francisco they lost, Indianapolis, Okay, Gardner minshew, they lost. Uh,

291
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 2: they beat Tennessee, which no surprise with Tennessee lost to

292
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 2: the Texans, lost to the Bills, lost to the Atlanta

293
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,200
Speaker 2: Falcons because they play them obviously twice in their division,

294
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 2: and uh, you know, so Detroit Lions, they lost to them,

295
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 2: they beat the Saints, they lost at the Philadelphia Eagles.

296
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 2: I mean it's they haven't beat some high quality teams.

297
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 2: So I think the Jaguars is gonna win this one.

298
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 2: I'm not trying to lock at double lock at a

299
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:48,359
Speaker 2: triple locker, and I'm not gonna pull a JP shattericks.

300
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,079
Speaker 2: I believe that they will win this game. Yeah, I'm

301
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 2: out of the lock business, as you should be. Yeah,

302
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:59,040
Speaker 2: I deserve to be. Yeah, I'm not either way, I'm

303
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 2: good with that. Fine, be out of that business. I'm

304
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 2: so far out of that. By the way, did you

305
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:08,839
Speaker 2: go into my closet and steal my shirt? What's the deal? No,

306
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:11,559
Speaker 2: mine's smaller than yours.

307
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,960
Speaker 5: No, it's not. We are we are aware of the

308
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:16,400
Speaker 5: same shirt.

309
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 2: I didn't realize that. How about I just figured that out?

310
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 2: I mean, seriously, did you go take the other shirt

311
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 2: that I had? No?

312
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 5: I had no idea where you live. Why would I

313
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 5: do that? I have no idea.

314
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 2: But it's a great mind stick, I guess. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

315
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 2: that's it's a nice shirt.

316
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 5: Thanks a lot.

317
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:36,840
Speaker 2: Yours is nice. So obviously, the quarterback is number one

318
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 2: priority this week. Concussion protocol and the head coach you know,

319
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:43,600
Speaker 2: just can't really you know, divulge a bunch of the

320
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 2: detail about that. But tomorrow is a big day. I mean,

321
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 2: Trevor's out there in any capacity, that's a good sign, right, Well,

322
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 2: I mean yes, but it still makes me nervous. Look,

323
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:58,800
Speaker 2: I still I feel confident that this team can win

324
00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 2: regardless of who is playing quarterbacks. I think whether it's

325
00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 2: CJ or Trevor, that they will play well against Tampa.

326
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 2: But it just makes me nervous that if okay, let's

327
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:14,720
Speaker 2: say Trevor is cleared and he's going to play, he

328
00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 2: won't have had a lot of practice this week, and

329
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:21,440
Speaker 2: then will we not every time he gets hit be

330
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 2: worried about him. Well yeah, and the long term.

331
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 5: I think I do that anyway, But yeah.

332
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 2: Right, but I mean I think you would be more

333
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:33,680
Speaker 2: worried about it this week, I think than at any

334
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 2: other time. So so yeah, it's going to be a

335
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 2: little nerve wracking to find out exactly what's going to happen.

336
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:44,680
Speaker 2: But again, if CJ plays, I've got confidence in him.

337
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 2: If Trevor plays, I have confidence in him. But I'm

338
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:53,560
Speaker 2: gonna be nervous and I want him to protect the ball. Look,

339
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 2: this football team this past game did not do did

340
00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:59,440
Speaker 2: not do some simple things that they need to do.

341
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 2: Protect the ball, eliminate penalties. They didn't check the boxes

342
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:07,000
Speaker 2: in those two categories. Make some field goals. They missed

343
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,200
Speaker 2: in that category at the end of the half. The

344
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 2: mismanagement of that situation was costly to where they got

345
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:16,120
Speaker 2: zero points with a first down situation at the five

346
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 2: yard line. You got to get points in that situation.

347
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:21,040
Speaker 2: Can't throw completion in bound to get tackled when you

348
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:23,320
Speaker 2: don't have a time out. And however you want to

349
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:25,640
Speaker 2: say it, they should they have clocked it, should they

350
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 2: have thrown to a different person. Both, okay, if however

351
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:31,800
Speaker 2: you look at it. But they've got to get points

352
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:35,480
Speaker 2: out of that. And I think that in this game

353
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 2: against Tampa and with the way you're playing, points are

354
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:41,760
Speaker 2: at a premium. You've got to make sure that you're

355
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 2: not hurting yourself in this ball game against Tampa Bay. Well,

356
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 2: back in a moment, we'll figure out how a plan

357
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 2: to defend Baker Mayfield and Mike Evans for this Tampa

358
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:53,680
Speaker 2: Bay as not an easy plan to put together. You've

359
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 2: got just a few minutes to figure it out. Yeah,

360
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,760
Speaker 2: how about that? Yeah, a little later, about fifteen minutes

361
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 2: or so, we'll hear from Rovin Ridley in the locker

362
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:05,919
Speaker 2: room yesterday during his media availability time and see what

363
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:06,680
Speaker 2: he has to say.

364
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:09,160

374
00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 2: The Jaguars and the Buccaneers coming up Raymond James Stadium, Tampa.

375
00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,280
Speaker 2: Battle of teams that are tied for first place in

376
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 2: their respective divisions, the number fourth seed in each conference. Currently,

377
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 2: the Jaguars and the Bucks should be a good one

378
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:08,359
Speaker 2: and Baker Mayfield playing good football, the quarterback for the

379
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:12,680
Speaker 2: Buccanteers coming off a perfect passer rating last week, former

380
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 2: number one overall pick of the Cleveland Browns back in

381
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 2: twenty eighteen, and it's amazing a first overall pick of

382
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:24,720
Speaker 2: the draft has already bounced around like he has. You know, Cleveland, Carolina,

383
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:28,719
Speaker 2: the Rams, and now Tampa. It's just not very common

384
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:32,199
Speaker 2: that you see a first overall pick in that amount

385
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:36,119
Speaker 2: of time have that many stops. Yeah, this one, you know,

386
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:37,720
Speaker 2: maybe this one sticks a little bit.

387
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:38,719
Speaker 5: I don't know, it might.

388
00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 2: Look he's having a good year. I mean, he's having

389
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:44,280
Speaker 2: a very good year. He's Look, they may have win

390
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,160
Speaker 2: a division title, which would be three years in a row,

391
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:48,919
Speaker 2: I mean two years with Tom Brady and then all

392
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,359
Speaker 2: of a sudden, replacing Tom Brady has no easy task.

393
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,360
Speaker 2: You think, that's like the last guy you would ever

394
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:58,040
Speaker 2: want to follow up, Right, There's only been two places

395
00:18:58,080 --> 00:18:59,640
Speaker 2: you can do that though. I mean, you know, think

396
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:05,159
Speaker 2: about what happened in New England. Think about that situation.

397
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 5: Good luck.

398
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's not that's not a great situation to follow him.

399
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:15,159
Speaker 2: And he's arguably the greatest quarterback of all time in

400
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,480
Speaker 2: my opinion, he is. I mean, some other people would

401
00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:22,159
Speaker 2: argue that other quarterbacks were greater, Peyton Manning, you know,

402
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:25,439
Speaker 2: Joe Montana, whatever your opinion is, I mean, he's certainly

403
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:28,480
Speaker 2: amongst the greatest. And you don't ever want to follow greatness.

404
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:30,200
Speaker 2: You know. The only guy that ever really did it,

405
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:34,320
Speaker 2: if you think about it, was Steve Young. Yeah, and

406
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:38,960
Speaker 2: Steve Young followed greatness with his own greatness, which is amazing.

407
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 2: And Steve Young was so different than Joe Montana. Joe

408
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 2: different style, a very different style left.

409
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:47,880
Speaker 5: Handed, that was part of the style.

410
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:53,040
Speaker 2: But the mobility of Steve Young was just impeccable. But

411
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:58,720
Speaker 2: he kept that offense just rolling straight ahead. So has

412
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:00,760
Speaker 2: some really good players. Was good to say. It wasn't

413
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:05,639
Speaker 2: just that I'll go back because their glory days was

414
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:07,879
Speaker 2: kind of the beginning of my career as a player

415
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:11,399
Speaker 2: in the National Football League. And they had let's not

416
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:14,399
Speaker 2: forget on the opposite side of Jerry Rice John Taylor,

417
00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:21,359
Speaker 2: they had Tom Rathman, Oh Gosh Craig Roger Craig who

418
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:25,720
Speaker 2: was he ran with such high knees uh and ran

419
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:34,000
Speaker 2: angry the tight end. Gosh had the famous catch uh

420
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:37,280
Speaker 2: russ uh Gosh, I'm john a blank on his name,

421
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:43,000
Speaker 2: and then on defense they had that Haley for a while,

422
00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:45,520
Speaker 2: they had Doleman, some of the guys left over from

423
00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 2: other teams, and then Stubble fielding young on the inside.

424
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 2: I mean they just Ronnie Lot. I mean, they had

425
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 2: guys that were just fantastic, fantastic. I mean, who is

426
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 2: the GM of that team? Who is the personnel guy?

427
00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 5: It's a great I don't yeah, I don't know.

428
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:03,439
Speaker 2: I was a little young, because you know, when you

429
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 2: think about the forty nine Ers, who gets all the

430
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:11,119
Speaker 2: credit it's Bill Walsh. But who assembled that talent for

431
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 2: the forty nine ers in their heyday? It's a great

432
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:18,159
Speaker 2: question because they I mean, right now, I'm trying to

433
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:19,840
Speaker 2: think of it. It's a perfect example of why the

434
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:21,639
Speaker 2: guy hasn't got enough credit because I can't put a

435
00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,879
Speaker 2: name on it. I mean, is it not one of

436
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:29,399
Speaker 2: the greatest collections of talent in the history of the

437
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 2: National Football League. You go back and you say that

438
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:36,560
Speaker 2: the Pittsburgh Steelers, but their ability to collect talent back

439
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 2: in the seventies, it's just incredible. And nowadays, I mean,

440
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:45,800
Speaker 2: who assembles talent to that level now it's hard. Yeah,

441
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:49,000
Speaker 2: So Bill Walsh was the actual GM in the late

442
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,840
Speaker 2: seventies into the early eighties, and then John McVeigh took

443
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:54,600
Speaker 2: over in eighty three, which is Sean mcvay's dad. Yeah,

444
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,680
Speaker 2: so there go, and he was there through nineteen ninety apparently.

445
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 2: All right, so they have it interesting. All right, We've

446
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:02,840
Speaker 2: got plenty to get to. We're back in a moment.

447
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:07,119
Speaker 2: Jaguars offense. Communication was the big word last week. I

448
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:11,280
Speaker 2: think it still applies this week. Well, it always applies

449
00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:16,200
Speaker 2: every week, and I think that that word was used

450
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:19,400
Speaker 2: maybe a little bit too much on the offensive side

451
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,840
Speaker 2: of them all. It definitely applies to some of the

452
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 2: mistakes that the defense made, particularly against Cleveland. At Cleveland

453
00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:32,040
Speaker 2: because of those three explosive plays. Okay, there were definitely

454
00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:36,520
Speaker 2: some communication issues all on them. Okay, with the linebackers

455
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:38,879
Speaker 2: and then also the defensive backs of communication on the

456
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:40,480
Speaker 2: one to bell. All Right, we're back in a moment.

457
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,000
Speaker 2: We'll figure out the offensive side after this. It's The

Speaker 2: locker room this week and hear a portion of his

466
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:25,159
Speaker 2: conversation with the media that he has every Wednesday. And

467
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:29,359
Speaker 2: you know, we're talking about these receivers this week, and

468
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:33,000
Speaker 2: two of the top three are injured right now. I

469
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:35,800
Speaker 2: mean Christian Kirk still in the list on the injured list,

470
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:38,280
Speaker 2: so a little bit longer for him. And then Zay

471
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:42,520
Speaker 2: Jones is not practiced this week coming off a hamstring injury.

472
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:45,399
Speaker 2: So Calvin Ridley step right up. I mean, this is

473
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:48,840
Speaker 2: it's he's kind of the old man in the wide

474
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 2: receiver room right now. Well, I consider Evan Ingram a

475
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 2: wide receiver even though he's listed as a tight ad.

476
00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,600
Speaker 2: If you look at how defenses play him match up

477
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:02,720
Speaker 2: against him, they match up against him like he's a

478
00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 2: wide receiver. They don't put linebackers on him, they play

479
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 2: him with defensive backs. And could that role change a

480
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,720
Speaker 2: little bit this week, you know now that you get

481
00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:21,240
Speaker 2: Britain strange back, maybe, but I really believe that Evan

482
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,639
Speaker 2: Ingram needs to become like he was a couple of

483
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:26,400
Speaker 2: weeks ago, for two weeks in a row. He's got

484
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:29,920
Speaker 2: to become a big part of this offense, a really

485
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:33,119
Speaker 2: big part of this offense. This week, I'm talking, you know,

486
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:36,960
Speaker 2: twelve targets, somewhere in the range of nine or ten catches,

487
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:40,320
Speaker 2: and that's been about what his percentage has been recently.

488
00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:41,960
Speaker 2: But I want to see more of an impact from

489
00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:45,320
Speaker 2: a yardage standpoint with him, and I hope the coaches

490
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 2: can get a little creative on how they get him

491
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:51,520
Speaker 2: the ball with more yards per catch. All right, that's

492
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:56,159
Speaker 2: all fine, But considering the quarterback situation right now, I

493
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:57,399
Speaker 2: don't care who the quarterback is.

494
00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 5: I still think you need to still get that even

495
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:00,760
Speaker 5: with Bethrott.

496
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,680
Speaker 2: Yes, I still think you can get that with even

497
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 2: with bethret In and looking and the Bucks have been

498
00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 2: without Devin White. There are other starting inside linebacker for

499
00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:10,919
Speaker 2: the last three games. And there's a little bit of

500
00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:13,480
Speaker 2: a I think a little bit of a rub there

501
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:15,960
Speaker 2: between the head coach and him now about you know,

502
00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,399
Speaker 2: is he hurt or is he not well? Remember the

503
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:23,119
Speaker 2: off season they wouldn't negotiate a new contract, so he

504
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 2: got all hot about that, and then it was a

505
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,920
Speaker 2: first round pick in nineteen and so looking at the

506
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:31,680
Speaker 2: contract year, yeah, this is the contract year for him.

507
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:35,119
Speaker 2: So still no new contract in hand, and him and

508
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:38,840
Speaker 2: Todd Bowles have not been very happy. It's not exactly

509
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 2: a kumbay Al moment for them in this year's season.

510
00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:47,680
Speaker 2: But I believe that Evan if he if you put

511
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,240
Speaker 2: him in against those linebackers, if they try to put

512
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:52,479
Speaker 2: the linebackers on him, I think he can he can

513
00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:55,680
Speaker 2: do some serious damage. Now, Antoine Winfield, one of the

514
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:57,880
Speaker 2: best safeties in the league, is back there too. Could

515
00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:00,840
Speaker 2: they could they try to put Winfield against him? If so,

516
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:04,400
Speaker 2: that's a marquee matchup. That's like, literally, I can't wait

517
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:06,440
Speaker 2: to see that match up. That's one of those things

518
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:08,800
Speaker 2: where after the game you want to watch the film

519
00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:11,960
Speaker 2: to watch a premium matchup because that's a premium matchup

520
00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:14,600
Speaker 2: in the National Football League this week. I mean, and

521
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 2: would that be not an advantage for the Jaguars over all?

522
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:21,560
Speaker 2: The way Winfield plays everywhere on defense, if you want

523
00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:23,480
Speaker 2: him one on one with a tight end down the field,

524
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:25,080
Speaker 2: it's probably just hate get him out of the here,

525
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:27,600
Speaker 2: get him out of the box altogether. Right, Well, you

526
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:29,680
Speaker 2: could if he's going to try to cover Evan because

527
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:33,320
Speaker 2: he's sacking guys. He's got quarterback hits, he's got forced fumbles,

528
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:36,520
Speaker 2: he's got passes. It's like, come on, just run him

529
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:40,040
Speaker 2: down the field. Maybe. Maybe, but that's the one part

530
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 2: of that I want to see Evan do more of.

531
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,680
Speaker 2: We see Evan always on those little what I call

532
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 2: stick routes, you know where he's five six yards down

533
00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 2: the field, turning around, you know, catching the ball at seven.

534
00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:55,720
Speaker 2: I mean, when's the last time we saw him running

535
00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:57,800
Speaker 2: down the seam and has like the one that Luke

536
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:01,160
Speaker 2: Farrell had. Luke Farrell had that one catch for twenty

537
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:04,320
Speaker 2: eight yards. I'd love to see Evan end up getting

538
00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:06,119
Speaker 2: some of them, and he would help the offense in

539
00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:09,800
Speaker 2: a big way, especially with the absence of Zay. But

540
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:14,040
Speaker 2: here's the other guy who's got to step up. Elijah Cooks. Okay,

541
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:17,040
Speaker 2: the rookie who has had a roster spot the entire year,

542
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:21,000
Speaker 2: undrafted guy from San Jose State. Okay, how many targets

543
00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:27,119
Speaker 2: does he have? Elijah Cooks for the Jacksonville Jaguars of

544
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:32,400
Speaker 2: the twenty twenty three campaigns so far, Elijah Cooks has

545
00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:37,440
Speaker 2: a total of one one target.

546
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was last week he dropped it.

547
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 2: One target. I mean, you got a roster spot, okay,

548
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:47,680
Speaker 2: and this is week what sixteen? Okay? What did Doug

549
00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:49,760
Speaker 2: say about this point of the season. Are you a

550
00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:50,400
Speaker 2: rookie or.

551
00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:51,320
Speaker 5: You not a rookie?

552
00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:51,479
Speaker 4: Year?

553
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:52,359
Speaker 5: You're not a rookie?

554
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 2: Okay, it's Christmas Rooks. Let's go okay, let's go. Got

555
00:27:56,200 --> 00:28:00,479
Speaker 2: He's got. He was like the highest rated wide receiver

556
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:06,080
Speaker 2: coming out of the preseason according to PFF, which many

557
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:09,600
Speaker 2: people say PFF doesn't mean anything, it's preseason. You love

558
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:13,040
Speaker 2: those guys, then I think there's some substance to what

559
00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:17,919
Speaker 2: they have the preseason ratings. Maybe not so much, but

560
00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:21,399
Speaker 2: I want to see him do something. If you've got

561
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:23,960
Speaker 2: a roster spot and now here's an opportunity with the

562
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:27,159
Speaker 2: injuries that have happened, now it's time for you to

563
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:31,159
Speaker 2: be big boy, okay and be a pro and make

564
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,919
Speaker 2: some plays when given the opportunity. And I hope he

565
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 2: gets the opportunity. And one thing that he has that

566
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 2: a lot of the other receivers don't is that size

567
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 2: and that that catch radius, and he did a really

568
00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:46,240
Speaker 2: good job in the preseason of catching the contested balls,

569
00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:49,880
Speaker 2: so I hope he gets an opportunity this week. We'll

570
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:52,160
Speaker 2: come back in a moment and here from Calvin Ridley,

571
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:56,280
Speaker 2: Jaguars wide receiver, in the locker room yesterday ahead of

572
00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:58,560
Speaker 2: this Jaguars Buccaneers matchup.

573
00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 5: And this is the Doug Show on Jaguars Radio.

574
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:14,040
Speaker 2: Listen show presented by Fresh from Florida continues. Food tastes

575
00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:17,640
Speaker 2: better when it's grown closer to home, JP, Shadwick, Jeff Logman.

576
00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:18,720
Speaker 5: Back in just a few moments.

577
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:23,080
Speaker 2: Calvin Ridley in the locker room this week and coming

578
00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:25,680
Speaker 2: off back to back outings where he's had twenty five

579
00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:29,720
Speaker 2: combined targets the last two games, nine catches for one

580
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:32,760
Speaker 2: hundred and no No ninety two yards in that time frame.

581
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 2: Last touchdown was at Houston back on Thanksgiving weekend and

582
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 2: he has five touchdowns for the season. Trying to get

583
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 2: on track now with the final three games to go

584
00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 2: and with the other two primary options at wide receiver

585
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:51,440
Speaker 2: injured at the moment, Calvin Ridley trying to take a

586
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 2: step up. He was in the locker room yesterday and

587
00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:56,400
Speaker 2: always speaks with the media on Wednesday. This is from

588
00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:00,480
Speaker 2: the media portion where the scrum is around him getting

589
00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:03,680
Speaker 2: some thoughts from Calvin about going into week sixteen, and

590
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:07,880
Speaker 2: it is a tight division race all of a sudden, Yeah,

591
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 2: it's pretty tight.

592
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:11,160
Speaker 6: We did we didn't make it too easy for ourselves

593
00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 6: right now, but there shouldn't be no pressure. Just try

594
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:17,040
Speaker 6: to get back to what we were doing before we lost

595
00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:19,920
Speaker 6: those three and get on the right foot and take

596
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:21,760
Speaker 6: it from there, get into the to the race.

597
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 2: This is not the first week where we've had backup

598
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:27,760
Speaker 2: quarterbacks out there taking the first team reps. So how

599
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 2: has it been this week with CJ?

600
00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:30,040
Speaker 5: It's been good.

601
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:32,520
Speaker 6: I mean, obviously we've been in this situation before. CJ

602
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:35,480
Speaker 6: does a great job. He knows all the plays just

603
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:39,080
Speaker 6: as good as Trevor. You know, we take it one

604
00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:42,160
Speaker 6: day at a time and whenever, you know, we know

605
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:45,520
Speaker 6: what's going on, really we're gonna be ready. So we

606
00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:47,040
Speaker 6: just take it in my practice at the time, we

607
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:48,440
Speaker 6: had a good day to day and it's we've been

608
00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:49,560
Speaker 6: moving forward to tomorrow.

609
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:51,680
Speaker 5: You know, some more changes last weeks.

610
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 2: Ay comes out with an injury and here's Jamal back

611
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:56,560
Speaker 2: in the lineup. So I mean that what does that

612
00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:58,640
Speaker 2: do to the wide receiver room when you got some

613
00:30:58,640 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 2: some moving parts this late.

614
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know this far in, it's hard to keep

615
00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:05,200
Speaker 6: your you know, stulf up. But we got a lot

616
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:07,080
Speaker 6: of young guys in our room who are hungry and

617
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 6: they're ready to play. And they've been with us all

618
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:11,640
Speaker 6: year in camp and we know they can play, and

619
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:13,720
Speaker 6: you know they can step up. So you know, like

620
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:18,280
Speaker 6: says next man up mentality, if they can't go or whoever,

621
00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:20,840
Speaker 6: I know our young guys will be ready and ready

622
00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 6: to make some plays.

623
00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 2: Stadium is one thing, But what about the defense on

624
00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:25,960
Speaker 2: the field between the lines and Tampa?

625
00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, pretty good defense. Uh they want to Super Bowl

626
00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:35,360
Speaker 6: with that defense, I think, right, yeah, something like that. Yeah,

627
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:38,520
Speaker 6: good good defense. I just you know, good everything.

628
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:40,000
Speaker 5: I just want to keep it good.

629
00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,800
Speaker 2: Does It doesn't seem to matter to you who's across

630
00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:44,520
Speaker 2: on the other side, right Nah.

631
00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 6: I just want to be respectful, you know, respect each

632
00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:49,680
Speaker 6: team that we're going against, really good team for real,

633
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:55,320
Speaker 6: good corners, good d line, good linebackers, good safeties, pretty

634
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:56,360
Speaker 6: much just a good core.

635
00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:58,000
Speaker 5: And but I got a lot of.

636
00:31:57,960 --> 00:31:59,880
Speaker 6: Respect for us, and you know, and I know what

637
00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:02,560
Speaker 6: we should do and what we can do so, Like

638
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:05,280
Speaker 6: I said, a good team, but we need to you know,

639
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:05,720
Speaker 6: we got to.

640
00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:09,640
Speaker 5: I want to respect them, you know what I'm saying.

641
00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:10,120
Speaker 5: That's fair.

642
00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:12,080
Speaker 2: And last one for me, I mean, there's a been

643
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:15,600
Speaker 2: a lot of talk about the focus and the details,

644
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:18,120
Speaker 2: you know, pre snap penalties, a lot of things going on.

645
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:20,120
Speaker 5: How has that felt so far?

646
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 2: I mean it's one day on the field, but how

647
00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:24,120
Speaker 2: do you guys clean that up down the stretch?

648
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 5: Communication?

649
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:28,760
Speaker 6: You just you know, you start in the meetings by

650
00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:30,840
Speaker 6: telling each other that we got to communicate better. We

651
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:32,400
Speaker 6: got to make sure before we leave the huddle that

652
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:34,560
Speaker 6: everyone's on the same page. So you know, when we

653
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:36,320
Speaker 6: and our walkthroughs and you know, when we're going through

654
00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:38,880
Speaker 6: our plays, we're just you know, overly communicating with each

655
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,280
Speaker 6: other just you know, reminded each other that you know,

656
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 6: it's on this snap.

657
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 5: You know this is the play.

658
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:45,200
Speaker 6: You know this is you know, this is what's going

659
00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 6: on in the in the game. So you know, there's

660
00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:48,760
Speaker 6: a lot of moving parts and you can you can

661
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:52,200
Speaker 6: easily forget like you know, it seems like it's easy

662
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:54,040
Speaker 6: to just run to the line and snap the ball.

663
00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:56,240
Speaker 6: But we got a lot of thinking, a lot of

664
00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 6: looking around and you can easily forget you know what

665
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,880
Speaker 6: the account is. So you know, I mean, obviously we're

666
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:04,880
Speaker 6: professionals and we gotta be perfect, but you know, we're

667
00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:06,720
Speaker 6: working on it, and that's how you do it.

668
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:13,280
Speaker 2: That is Calvin Ridley, the Jaguars wide receiver in the

669
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:16,040
Speaker 2: locker room yesterday, one hundred and nine targets for the year,

670
00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:18,360
Speaker 2: same amount of targets as Evan Ingram, by the way,

671
00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:21,960
Speaker 2: and Ingram with eighty eight catches, Calvin with sixty catches

672
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:25,360
Speaker 2: on the year and Ridley with just a few more

673
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:27,920
Speaker 2: yards than Evan Ingram seven to eighty one for Ridley

674
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:31,480
Speaker 2: seven twenty nine for the tight end Evan Ingram on

675
00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 2: the season. The last three times out though, for Ridley

676
00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:38,760
Speaker 2: thirty three targets, thirteen catches in one hundred and eighteen yards,

677
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:42,640
Speaker 2: and it could be his wide receiver room at least

678
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:46,440
Speaker 2: as a fifth year player for the foreseeable future and

679
00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 2: down the stretches these big important games, the Jags need

680
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:51,840
Speaker 2: Ridley to get back on track for sure. Fresh from

681
00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:54,520
Speaker 2: Florida is proud to partner with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Eat

682
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:58,480
Speaker 2: like a Jag when you choose fresh from Florida Jeff

683
00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:01,560
Speaker 2: Logovan returns after this. It's the Doug Peterson Show on

684
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:06,880
Speaker 2: the Jaguars Radio Network.

685
00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:21,360
Speaker 1: Welcome back. The Doug Peterson Show continues right.

686
00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:24,840
Speaker 2: Now, The Doug Peterson Show, presented by Fresh from Florida.

687
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:28,160
Speaker 2: Food tastes better when it's grown closer to home.

688
00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:30,680
Speaker 5: That's a fact. J. P.

689
00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:35,239
Speaker 2: Shadick, Jeff Logeman, The Doug Peterson Show rolling along. That

690
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:38,320
Speaker 2: was Calvin Ridley just moments ago from the locker room yesterday.

691
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:41,240
Speaker 2: And we all kind of by now know the story

692
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:45,360
Speaker 2: of Ridley in his career up to now, and obviously

693
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 2: a big year for Calvin, and you know, coming back

694
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:52,279
Speaker 2: off the suspension and missing nearly two full seasons and

695
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:53,920
Speaker 2: now he's played in every game.

696
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:56,200
Speaker 5: And there have been some good moments.

697
00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:58,840
Speaker 2: There have been some moments you'd like to see some

698
00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:01,439
Speaker 2: better play and more con assistency out of him as well.

699
00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:03,759
Speaker 2: But you know, if he has a chance now the

700
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:06,480
Speaker 2: last three weeks to really step up and lead the

701
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:08,920
Speaker 2: way with this wide receiver room, well he's got a

702
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:14,439
Speaker 2: great opportunity because what is his contract situation. I mean

703
00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:17,279
Speaker 2: it's a free agent, right, and so here you go,

704
00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:20,200
Speaker 2: there's three games left and opportunity to be the focal

705
00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:23,200
Speaker 2: point of an offense if you can find a way

706
00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:26,280
Speaker 2: to continue to build the chemistry with your quarterback, whoever

707
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:30,759
Speaker 2: that is. And so for me, he needs to take

708
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:34,760
Speaker 2: advantage of it. Now. There's a lot of speculation about

709
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:37,440
Speaker 2: Calvin Ridley in the future with his football team, and

710
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:39,680
Speaker 2: I think all of that just needs to be put

711
00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:43,400
Speaker 2: on hold. To all of that, I say, live in

712
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:47,160
Speaker 2: the moment, okay, because if all of a sudden, you

713
00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:50,200
Speaker 2: have great moments this week, and then the next week,

714
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:53,000
Speaker 2: and then the week after that, and then in the playoffs,

715
00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:56,799
Speaker 2: all of that will take care of itself, whether if

716
00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,600
Speaker 2: you're looking at it from his perspective or you're looking

717
00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:03,719
Speaker 2: at it from the team perspective. Everybody needs to live

718
00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:07,520
Speaker 2: in the now. And hopefully this now moment that they

719
00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 2: have is going to be really good for Calvin Ridley

720
00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:14,200
Speaker 2: and Trevor Or cj whoever it may be, because with

721
00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:18,520
Speaker 2: Christian Kirk out, with now Zay Jones out, this is

722
00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:23,799
Speaker 2: a tremendous opportunity for him to get more opportunities. We

723
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:26,200
Speaker 2: talked a lot about the passing game, and obviously the

724
00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:28,920
Speaker 2: quarterback situation a little up in the air. Let's see

725
00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:32,120
Speaker 2: what Trevor Lawrence does, if anything, on Friday, and that

726
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:33,720
Speaker 2: could be a step in the right direction.

727
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:36,240
Speaker 5: He has not practiced Wednesday or Thursday.

728
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:39,200
Speaker 2: CJ. Bethard so far has taken all those first team reps.

729
00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:43,440
Speaker 2: So you know, running the football has not been the

730
00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:46,440
Speaker 2: easiest as of late either, and that could help an offense.

731
00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:49,920
Speaker 2: When they've played their best offensive football, they've run the

732
00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:52,440
Speaker 2: football and balanced things out, and they haven't really been

733
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:54,719
Speaker 2: able to lean on that lately well. And then the

734
00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:57,040
Speaker 2: other thing that the running game gives you that I

735
00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:59,879
Speaker 2: think this offense is missing a little bit. It gives

736
00:36:59,880 --> 00:37:02,719
Speaker 2: you the play action, which a lot of the explosive

737
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:07,799
Speaker 2: plays come off of play action. And when you have

738
00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:11,680
Speaker 2: a solid, dependable ground game, people load the box. They

739
00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:14,120
Speaker 2: deplete the back end, and then it gives you an

740
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:17,120
Speaker 2: opportunity at hitting bigger plays, and then teams aren't keeping

741
00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:20,960
Speaker 2: their safeties back. The Jaguars haven't really seen any loaded

742
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:23,960
Speaker 2: boxes this year unless it's been a four minute situation

743
00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:25,480
Speaker 2: where they've got a lead and they're trying to end

744
00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:27,640
Speaker 2: up closing the game out, but it's by running it.

745
00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:30,480
Speaker 2: But for the most part throughout the ball games, teams

746
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:32,520
Speaker 2: are respecting the past, they know that this is a

747
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:35,680
Speaker 2: very quarterback centric offense. I mean, if you look at

748
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:38,880
Speaker 2: the at the half, you know, looking at the numbers

749
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:41,560
Speaker 2: from this pass game, Trevor's numbers at the half were

750
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:43,960
Speaker 2: actually pretty good sixteen of twenty three, even though he

751
00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:48,240
Speaker 2: had the fumble which didn't help much. And then also

752
00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:50,920
Speaker 2: the situation that happened right there before the half where

753
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:52,520
Speaker 2: they didn't get any points. But if you look at

754
00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:55,279
Speaker 2: the run pass ratio, Trevor had twenty three attempts in

755
00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:59,680
Speaker 2: the first half and Etn had seven carries. I mean

756
00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:01,680
Speaker 2: that's a that's above a three to one race.

757
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:03,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a lot, you know, so.

758
00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:07,239
Speaker 2: You'd love to be able to have balance, and I

759
00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:09,600
Speaker 2: think right now they kind of realize that, Look, we

760
00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:12,360
Speaker 2: can't be a left they can't be anything like the

761
00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:14,000
Speaker 2: Ravens where they're going to run the ball, run the ball,

762
00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:16,840
Speaker 2: run the ball. But when you can run the ball,

763
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:20,719
Speaker 2: that gives you the opportunity at the explosive plays. And

764
00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:24,080
Speaker 2: right now, play action is I mean, you're running the ball,

765
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:26,000
Speaker 2: but you're not running the ball effectively to where you're

766
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:28,160
Speaker 2: getting defenses to go, gosh, we really got to worry

767
00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:31,399
Speaker 2: about this. This rushing attack of the Jaguars. They're they're

768
00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:35,040
Speaker 2: not overly concerning themselves with it. Part of that. I mean,

769
00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:37,600
Speaker 2: remember Travis Etn has been on the injury report the

770
00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:39,680
Speaker 2: last few weeks with a chest issue. He's not on

771
00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:42,680
Speaker 2: there anymore. No, And I thought I thought in early

772
00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:45,719
Speaker 2: in the game this past week, I thought that they

773
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:48,280
Speaker 2: ran the ball pretty effectively to start that game against

774
00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:50,880
Speaker 2: the Ravens. I thought they came out of the right attitude.

775
00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:52,680
Speaker 2: We're gonna run a little bit, We're gonna be physical.

776
00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 2: You know, we're gonna we're gonna be able to play

777
00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,640
Speaker 2: a little bit of our own physical aspect of running

778
00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:00,840
Speaker 2: the game. And but it just didn't last. Didn't have

779
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:04,839
Speaker 2: any footing to stay throughout the ball game. And that's

780
00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:07,880
Speaker 2: where this offense, I think wants to be at some point.

781
00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:09,160
Speaker 2: I don't know if they're gonna be able to get

782
00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:11,680
Speaker 2: there this year. That's that's tough to ask. They've had

783
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:14,399
Speaker 2: a lot of moving parts with the offensive line. They

784
00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:17,040
Speaker 2: have had some performances upfront. That's not where it needs

785
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:20,560
Speaker 2: to be. And then Etann, You're right, I thought he

786
00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:23,680
Speaker 2: ran the ball harder. He finished the plays early in

787
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:29,080
Speaker 2: that game where the previous game Cincinnati Cleveland. He wasn't

788
00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:32,320
Speaker 2: finishing some of the plays, so that's encouraging. Darrens. Johnson's

789
00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:35,040
Speaker 2: been slowed a little bit too. I thought Bigsby was

790
00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:37,080
Speaker 2: gonna have a little bit bigger role this pass game,

791
00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:39,719
Speaker 2: but the numbers just weren't there. From a carry standpoint,

792
00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:42,080
Speaker 2: he only got to one carry for minus two yards.

793
00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:44,720
Speaker 2: Could he have a little bit of an impact this week?

794
00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:48,360
Speaker 2: You can get a backup running back a number of carries,

795
00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:50,480
Speaker 2: but you know, here's the thing. You got to put

796
00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:53,440
Speaker 2: some plays together as an offense for the second running

797
00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:55,560
Speaker 2: back or the third running back to get carries, to

798
00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:59,680
Speaker 2: stay on the field, sustaining some drives right and some success,

799
00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:02,120
Speaker 2: run the ball, moving the chains and then stack and

800
00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:05,520
Speaker 2: plays back in a moment Our final thoughts ahead of

Speaker 5: A lot? Big number?

824
00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:25,120
Speaker 2: It's a I want to say it's a record of

825
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:28,200
Speaker 2: some kind, but it's just tremendous amount. How does he too?

826
00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:30,840
Speaker 5: By the way, I bet you he's mid sixties.

827
00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:32,760
Speaker 2: I'm goan to guess you think, Yeah, I'm gonna guess

828
00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:34,480
Speaker 2: I think he might be a What do you think?

829
00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:36,080
Speaker 5: What do you think? I think?

830
00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:39,200
Speaker 2: He'd probably be I'm gonna say sixty six. I'm gonna

831
00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:42,759
Speaker 2: say late sixties. Okay, maybe seventy. Let's see he is

832
00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:47,200
Speaker 2: seventy one. Yeah wow, not that yeah wow. But the

833
00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:51,799
Speaker 2: number of hit songs that he's had forty four, No, no,

834
00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:56,640
Speaker 2: sixty yeah, it's crazy, sixty number one crazy. So that's

835
00:41:56,640 --> 00:42:00,799
Speaker 2: in May, coming up in like sixty ward it three days?

836
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:01,840
Speaker 5: What day is this? Thursday?

837
00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:06,120
Speaker 2: The game's Sunday? Yes, the Jaguars Thursday. Yeah. Hey, Christmas

838
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:09,719
Speaker 2: is coming up too. The Jaguars get the Buccaneers on

839
00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:13,759
Speaker 2: Christmas Eve down in Tampa Raymond James Stadium. We all

840
00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:16,319
Speaker 2: know the storylines by now. The quarterback field, by the way,

841
00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:19,280
Speaker 2: really oh the grass is fantastic in Tampa.

842
00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:20,000
Speaker 5: Oh yeah.

843
00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:22,839
Speaker 2: If I had this discussion with somebody the other day

844
00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:26,360
Speaker 2: and we're talking about the best fields in the National

845
00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:30,439
Speaker 2: Football League, and I would put Jacksonville's in the top five.

846
00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:34,200
Speaker 2: Tampa has historically been the last time we were there,

847
00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:36,360
Speaker 2: I would say that that one's the top five as well.

848
00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:39,160
Speaker 2: You know, and typically the warmer climates have the great one.

849
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:42,120
Speaker 2: You know, the old Raymond James Stadium or whatever it

850
00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:44,440
Speaker 2: was called. What was it called oh, the old some

851
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:47,359
Speaker 2: the sombrero. Yeah, I forget the name of it, but yeah,

852
00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:50,760
Speaker 2: this is Raymond James. That one had this huge crown,

853
00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:54,880
Speaker 2: so as a pass rusher felt like I was rushing

854
00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:57,640
Speaker 2: uphill because it literally had that much of a crown

855
00:42:57,680 --> 00:43:00,560
Speaker 2: on the field. This one has a right draining the

856
00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:04,520
Speaker 2: system and it's not crowned like that. It's an exceptional

857
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:08,160
Speaker 2: playing surface in Tampa. The Chiefs ahead, George Thoma is

858
00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:10,600
Speaker 2: a long time groundskeeper and always does the Super Bowls

859
00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:13,040
Speaker 2: and stuff like he's been there, right. But the problem

860
00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:16,080
Speaker 2: with Kansas City is that it's in Kansas City. Okay,

861
00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:20,960
Speaker 2: grass doesn't grow great in Kansas City and the fall.

862
00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:24,439
Speaker 2: Some grasses do grow better in colder weather, but it's

863
00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:27,480
Speaker 2: always going to be better in your warmer climates for

864
00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:30,279
Speaker 2: the most part. But it's a good surface. It's a

865
00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:32,719
Speaker 2: good surface, okay, But you got to have a team

866
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:35,879
Speaker 2: playing well on whatever surface is out there. But it's

867
00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:39,920
Speaker 2: a Tampa is a great playing surface, okay with the Jaguars,

868
00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:43,000
Speaker 2: no matter the surface, need to play better football. Oh yes,

869
00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:45,560
Speaker 2: that that's a that's a big yes, GP. You know,

870
00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:47,719
Speaker 2: stop and stop the self inflicted wounds, you know, start

871
00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:50,000
Speaker 2: playing some clean football. You know, if you go back

872
00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:51,880
Speaker 2: and you look at the last three games in the

873
00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:54,160
Speaker 2: losing streak, you can point to different moments to where

874
00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:57,680
Speaker 2: the team has made mistakes which are completely in their control,

875
00:43:57,760 --> 00:43:59,759
Speaker 2: and that they don't make those mistakes or if they

876
00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:04,359
Speaker 2: may those plays, they win those three games. And that's

877
00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:07,040
Speaker 2: that's kind of the story of the league. If you

878
00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:12,040
Speaker 2: look at a Tom Coughlin coach team, Doug Peterson going

879
00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:15,080
Speaker 2: back to the Super Bowl year last year, as they

880
00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:18,799
Speaker 2: got on that run, they weren't beating themselves and historically

881
00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:21,799
Speaker 2: those other teams, as Doug Peterson, they didn't. They didn't

882
00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:24,840
Speaker 2: beat themselves. And if you take care of the football

883
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:27,439
Speaker 2: and you don't make mistakes, you give yourself a great

884
00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:30,360
Speaker 2: chance of winning. And that's the margin for error in

885
00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:34,360
Speaker 2: this league is so small. It's much different than college

886
00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:36,880
Speaker 2: football because a lot of people try to try to

887
00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 2: think of it as college football are similar to college football,

888
00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:42,160
Speaker 2: and you can't look at it that way. You know,

889
00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:44,319
Speaker 2: they're like, how in the world can they lose to

890
00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:46,680
Speaker 2: that team? Well, you know what, the guys are on

891
00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:49,439
Speaker 2: the other side of the ball. They get paid too, Okay,

892
00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:50,760
Speaker 2: they get paid a lot of money.

893
00:44:51,160 --> 00:44:54,239
Speaker 5: They do and it'll be this Sunday four or five.

894
00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:55,880
Speaker 2: Cake, We're on the air on the network at three
