1
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:20,239
Speaker 1: Welcome into jag Zama. I'm Kindannie Stevens, Brian Sexton, and

2
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:22,600
Speaker 1: John Oser are with me today. Is we're gonna recap

3
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:25,319
Speaker 1: that game for you from Las Vegas on Sunday. So

4
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:28,880
Speaker 1: we'll start with big things. Number One, unlucky in Las Vegas. Obviously,

5
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:31,720
Speaker 1: the Jaguars losing to the Raiders and other teams struggling

6
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:35,000
Speaker 1: throughout their season as well. Brian, it's disappointed, to say

7
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:38,000
Speaker 1: the least. Obviously, it has been frustrating this entire season.

8
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 1: But to lose to a team that is also not

9
00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 1: very good, that doesn't feel.

10
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:46,159
Speaker 2: Great, you know, And I'm not sure that unlucky is

11
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:49,519
Speaker 2: the best way to describe it, because this is what

12
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 2: we've seen all year.

13
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 3: I mean, Eric.

14
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:54,480
Speaker 2: Ormstead back to back plays in the Neutrals thought, that's

15
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 2: just a disciplined So.

16
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:02,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm lucky for us to have to watch it now.

17
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:06,679
Speaker 2: Listen there, You're absolutely right. It was a very tough

18
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:07,679
Speaker 2: game to watch.

19
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:09,479
Speaker 3: John. Yeah, it was.

20
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 4: Late season, out of the playoffs, before Christmas football, and

21
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,600
Speaker 4: over five or six games they've they've been eliminated, what

22
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,760
Speaker 4: with like five or six games remaining the Jags, it

23
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 4: defies logic to think one of these wasn't coming. This

24
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,319
Speaker 4: was sort of it. Neither team is very good, neither

25
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 4: team's playing a starting quarterback. The Jaguars have one front

26
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 4: line receiver in the game, and it's and it's Brian

27
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 4: Thomas Junior, who plays like it. So it's it's it's

28
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 4: the same thing, different week, this one with a Christmas

29
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 4: bow on.

30
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 2: It felt like human nature had finally arrived, right. I mean,

31
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 2: you're going west the week of Christmas, you're missing key players,

32
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 2: You've lost games at the end. It's gotten to be

33
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 2: that point where you just can't avoid. As John just said,

34
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 2: a game like that, they felt like the first time

35
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 2: all year guy that human nature showed up.

36
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 1: I felt like it got to them. Big thing number

37
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 1: two is too late. We're talking a lot this week

38
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: about getting the younger players out there, getting other players

39
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:11,800
Speaker 1: experienced in this game. It might be a little too

40
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 1: late for that.

41
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:15,959
Speaker 5: I mean, I know for the guys that haven't been around,

42
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,240
Speaker 5: it's hard. And I've been through this stuff many times,

43
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,440
Speaker 5: and you just got to go play ball and know

44
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 5: that your tape is your resume and everyone's watching the

45
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 5: tape and that's what you gotta do. And it stinks

46
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 5: and I do everything in my power to scream at

47
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 5: guys and cuss and say let's effing go, But.

48
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 4: Is what it is?

49
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 1: John, You and I were there for that. And Andrew

50
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 1: winger Dewey very frustrated without getting to play, got into

51
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 1: the game a little bit only after injury. And we've

52
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:47,520
Speaker 1: been talking a lot about whether it was Dewey coming

53
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 1: back or younger players, and we haven't seen all of

54
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 1: that at least second.

55
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 3: He's frustrated.

56
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 4: He's worked at this a long time, been a good

57
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,800
Speaker 4: player for a long time, had a chance to start

58
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 4: before the season started, got hurt. So yeah, I mean

59
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:09,799
Speaker 4: we're seeing some younger guys. I understand coaches with playing

60
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 4: younger guys. They don't just say let's throw everybody out

61
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:14,639
Speaker 4: there and see what happens. You still want to give

62
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 4: yourself the best chance, you know. Has it happened soon enough?

63
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:22,639
Speaker 4: I don't know.

64
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 3: It's is it too late? I guess it feels like

65
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 3: a lot of things are too late this season.

66
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,640
Speaker 2: You're right on, But just for three names, right, I mean,

67
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 2: Keilan Robinson, Jordan Jefferson and Trey Prince. And I thought

68
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 2: because Ronald Darby was down, we might see Trey Prince,

69
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 2: who I think is a promising guy, obviously talking about

70
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 2: it all the time, but you do have some young

71
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 2: guys for whom there are some hopes that they can

72
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 2: evolve and become players.

73
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 3: And I'm not in the meeting room.

74
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 2: I don't know why they're not active, but there are

75
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 2: some young guys and maybe the final two weeks we

76
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 2: could see some of those three and see if they

77
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 2: are guys that you can lean on going into twenty

78
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 2: twenty five.

79
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 1: Our final big thing is final Push, because while there

80
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 1: it was some finality to that game in Las Vegas,

81
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 1: there are STI still two more games that have to

82
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 1: be played. Mac Jones talked a little bit about the

83
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 1: end of the season.

84
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:18,840
Speaker 6: We'll keep that private, but definitely for me as as

85
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,479
Speaker 6: I've been this situation two years in a row, just

86
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,159
Speaker 6: play good football and put the ball in play and

87
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:28,160
Speaker 6: eliminate turnovers and control we can control, and like I said,

88
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 6: once we're all on the same page, promise things will

89
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 6: go well and and that's that's our goal.

90
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:34,480
Speaker 5: Ran.

91
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 1: We've been talking about the energy we've seen from the team.

92
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,479
Speaker 1: They're in these games. They're close games, but it feels

93
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,040
Speaker 1: like it's reaching the end of the track with this

94
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: amount of energy that they have left with all that's

95
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:44,359
Speaker 1: been frustrating the season.

96
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 2: Well, it's it's a combination of lack of key players, right.

97
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 2: I mean the fact that we're talking to Mac Jones

98
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:54,040
Speaker 2: after the game and not Trevor Lawrence says something about.

99
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:55,720
Speaker 3: Where this team is and that they're throwing the ball

100
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:56,039
Speaker 3: at times.

101
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,640
Speaker 2: You have Tim Jones on the field yesterday, I mean,

102
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 2: not Christian Kirk. You're relying on Parker Washington and not

103
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 2: Gave Davis. So it's just kind of where they are

104
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 2: at this point of the season. If you'd like something

105
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,600
Speaker 2: to be optimistic about, something to look forward to in

106
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 2: the final two weeks, I can give you something.

107
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 3: Would you like that?

108
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:13,159
Speaker 1: Please do.

109
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 2: The Jaguars are good to finish with the winning record,

110
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:19,480
Speaker 2: but they could finish with a winning record in the division.

111
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 2: I mean it's not much, but we're looking for something

112
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 2: to put in the old proverbial Christmas stocking. Perhaps a

113
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,000
Speaker 2: couple of wins at the end of the year would

114
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,280
Speaker 2: give them something to be happy about.

115
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 1: It.

116
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:33,920
Speaker 3: It's all I got John.

117
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 4: Yeh, Look, somebody asked me, how did he get to

118
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:42,599
Speaker 4: this point offensively? Well, they weren't a particularly good offense before,

119
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:48,840
Speaker 4: and now they're playing a backup quarterback and they're down

120
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:53,159
Speaker 4: three of their top four receivers. So I don't think

121
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,600
Speaker 4: not particularly good. It's going to get great in the circumstances.

122
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,599
Speaker 4: So that's why you see an offense that when Brian

123
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 4: Thomas you can't make a play. Uh, there's not much

124
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:06,280
Speaker 4: going on offensively. It's where we're at. Merry Christmas.

125
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 1: Oh that was mean, all right, So this we'll come

126
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 1: back after the brake. We'll look at some of the

127
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:20,920
Speaker 1: tape from the game in Vegas. Move the Frame, Move

128
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,920
Speaker 1: the Freight. Magellan Transport voted the coolest office space in Jacksonville.

129
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 1: You canply on line at www dot Magellan Logistics dot com.

130
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 1: Welcome back into drag Zam. We're gonna talk a little

131
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:33,839
Speaker 1: bit about that game in Las Vegas. Obviously frustrating and

132
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 1: kind of just bad football on both sides. Obviously both

133
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 1: of these teams have had trouble this season, but we

134
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 1: did see a little bit of something after all those

135
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:43,679
Speaker 1: errors in the first half. We did see the offense

136
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 1: get going a little bit. But John, as we've talked about,

137
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 1: it's always Brian Thomas junior that has to get it going.

138
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 1: Otherwise we don't see much of anything.

139
00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's uh, I don't know what the stat is,

140
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 4: but it seems like the last four or five games,

141
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:57,280
Speaker 4: a couple of touchdowns each game, and when you kind

142
00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:59,600
Speaker 4: of look back at the key play, it's always a

143
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 4: bet and it says great things about him, not great

144
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 4: things about the team. And yesterday again in the first

145
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:08,839
Speaker 4: half and they got it go and they got the

146
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 4: touchdown right after his he was a sixteen yarder that

147
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 4: broke Justin Blackings record and then credit him for sticking

148
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 4: it in. You know, they got the lead and they

149
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 4: can't do much with it.

150
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 2: It's amazing that we can talk about Brian Thomas Junior

151
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 2: as much as we do week after week after week

152
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,679
Speaker 2: and it doesn't seem to get old' he's that good.

153
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 2: And he's doing it without Trebor Lawrence. He's doing it

154
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 2: on a field essentially all by himself. Because listen, no

155
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 2: disrespect intended, but no one is worried about Parker Washington

156
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 2: or Tim Jones or whoever else is out there, Josh Reynolds.

157
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 3: It's all about seven.

158
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 2: And they put this team together this year with the

159
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 2: idea that it was gonna be kind of like basketball

160
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 2: John Proper spacing makes everything work, and they haven't had it,

161
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 2: and he's still playing so well, and it's such a

162
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:57,120
Speaker 2: dominant player. I'm excited to see what they do if

163
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 2: they can get it right with everyone else around him

164
00:07:58,960 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 2: next year.

165
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 4: Ye thoughts to him, and I think what you're gonna

166
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 4: see is once they get things moving around him. He

167
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 4: had nine for one hundred and thirty yesterday, which is

168
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 4: what about twelve yards reception ish and wasn't very good

169
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 4: at math. But I think once he gets people around

170
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 4: him a little bit, you're gonna see those yards perception

171
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 4: go up. He's gonna be more of a attack the

172
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 4: defense in the middle guy. And he's a smart guy

173
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 4: the press. Tyler talked about it last week, his ability

174
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:32,720
Speaker 4: to run all routes of all these receiver positions. Can

175
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 4: you imagine how good he's gonna be once those things

176
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 4: calm down in his head and he's.

177
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:40,200
Speaker 1: An experienced receiver.

178
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 3: It's I you're looking at the top five guy.

179
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:44,599
Speaker 1: It's good to see, at least on that side of

180
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,079
Speaker 1: the football. We talked a lot about confoundary footballs is

181
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:48,880
Speaker 1: not new. This is an issue they've had all season,

182
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 1: but finally get on the scoreboard and immediately give up

183
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,240
Speaker 1: a touchdown to the Raiders. And it's just that ability

184
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 1: or lack of ability to cover, and they're letting these

185
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,120
Speaker 1: huge plays come about. Obviously this one against Tyson and

186
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 1: Campbell setting up the touchdown, and just throughout the year.

187
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 1: I mean, it's is it scheming, it's players, it's all

188
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: of it.

189
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 2: It seems like, Kay, you tried to be kind with

190
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 2: this secondary this year and give them time to evolve,

191
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 2: but they've been horrible. The number of explosive plays lead

192
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 2: the league are a franchise record already with two games

193
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,720
Speaker 2: left to play, and they've been maddeningly consistent when you

194
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 2: needed a play to be made, whether it was the

195
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 2: Packers game at the end when the Jags tied it up,

196
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 2: or the Eagles game when the Jaguars were making it

197
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,360
Speaker 2: closer and the safety to go over the top and

198
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 2: DeVonta Smith was wide open at the back of the

199
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,839
Speaker 2: end zone. I mean, it's just been game after game

200
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 2: after game. The secondary has to be taken apart, reconstituted,

201
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:43,920
Speaker 2: and put back together in a different form than twenty

202
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:45,560
Speaker 2: twenty five. You can't play with this.

203
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's been as bad as Brian described. And look,

204
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 4: it doesn't mean every player is atrocious. It doesn't mean

205
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,839
Speaker 4: that every play has been bad. But the NFL is

206
00:09:54,840 --> 00:10:00,120
Speaker 4: about like big plays, and when you give up three

207
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,080
Speaker 4: or four a game and their game breakers like that,

208
00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 4: then all of a sudden, the fifteen plays you did

209
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 4: make don't matter. So I did not expect this sort

210
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:11,360
Speaker 4: of season from that bunch.

211
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 2: They gotta fix the safeties in particular. I mean, whether

212
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 2: it's about Cisco or Antonio Johnson or Turnhill Savage, I mean,

213
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 2: they have all been really bad and the mistakes that

214
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 2: they have made, whether it was Cisco an opening day

215
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:27,840
Speaker 2: against Miami as he watched Tyreek Hill or or Philly

216
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 2: or the Jets game, you know, the safety Antonio Johnson

217
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:32,440
Speaker 2: watched DeVante Adams.

218
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:37,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a fair few examples, I'm sure.

219
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:38,320
Speaker 2: Well, I can just roll them off the top of

220
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 2: my head, which goes to show we've been dealing with

221
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 2: it all season long.

222
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 1: Absolutely, all right, we're not gonna belabor the point. We'll

223
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,320
Speaker 1: look at one more. Because Brian Thomas Juniors touched down

224
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 1: that broken play, we finally got one of our own

225
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: on offense. Obviously, the Raiders missing a field goal before that,

226
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 1: so kind of set it up. As I mentioned, both

227
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 1: these teams not the best, so it's set up that play.

228
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 1: But and we talked a little bit about this earlier

229
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 1: with Brian, but just it's impressive that he's able to

230
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 1: run all of those different routes, right, and he's doing that.

231
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 1: I think John you mentioned without knowing that.

232
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:16,720
Speaker 4: Ent wasn't necessarily Sexton. Brian Sexton Junior could have scored

233
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 4: on that put.

234
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so.

235
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 4: But the person I talked about a lot last week,

236
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,079
Speaker 4: and it was very interesting that once the other guy's

237
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 4: got hurt, all of a sudden, BTJ is running routes

238
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:33,200
Speaker 4: from different receiver positions. It can take veterans. There are

239
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 4: veterans who can't do that. He hasn't spent an off

240
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 4: season learning it. His ability to pick up the press

241
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 4: was saying basically, he he hears something that they told

242
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,560
Speaker 4: Christian Kirk, hasn't really drilled it, and then can go

243
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 4: out and do it. That's high end football intelligence. This kid,

244
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 4: once that gets where it's it's like learning a language, right.

245
00:11:56,160 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 4: He sort of knows Spanish now once he really learned Spanish.

246
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:02,960
Speaker 3: Wow, ole.

247
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:07,160
Speaker 2: Oh, it's about all I know. So here's a really

248
00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 2: impressive part we talked. I just railed on the Jaguar secondary.

249
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 2: How bad are the Raiders that at the snap of

250
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 2: the bowl the safety on Brian Thomas junior side runs

251
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,360
Speaker 2: to the middle of it, runs away, and the corner

252
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 2: jumps up to meet him and then lets him go by.

253
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 2: I mean, that's the only threat on the entire field,

254
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:28,000
Speaker 2: and he's a hell of a threat. He could make

255
00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:31,720
Speaker 2: you look stupid. And two guys ran away from him.

256
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 3: What does that mean he had one job?

257
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 2: Listen, put three guys around him. Because you don't worry

258
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:41,640
Speaker 2: about no offense, You don't worry about anyone else but

259
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 2: number seven man. You can't have enough guys to go

260
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,559
Speaker 2: where is he? And on that play, it's like they went,

261
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 2: don't worry about him?

262
00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 4: Or when you're having tough seasons. Yeah, those things happen

263
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:52,880
Speaker 4: in tough seasons. Both teams are having tough seasons.

264
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:54,880

274
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 2: Well, mind's a lot optimistic. Listen, you can turn this too, right,

275
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 2: I mean it can. It went south fast. I'll go

276
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 2: back to the end of the third quarter of Miami

277
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:38,200
Speaker 2: An opening day, Travis etn fumbles into the end zone,

278
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:41,800
Speaker 2: Dolphins recover next play touchdown, and it felt to me

279
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 2: like the wind was out of their sails at that moment,

280
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 2: and it's never really returned because of Brian Thomas Junior.

281
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 2: Because you're playing without Trevor Lawrence right now.

282
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,400
Speaker 3: You've got Evan Ingram who will be back next year.

283
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,200
Speaker 2: You've got some guys, You've got some promising young guys.

284
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 2: What I watched yes yesterday just made me shake my

285
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:06,400
Speaker 2: head but realize that maybe, just maybe, if you get

286
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 2: this thing right in the offseason, meaning how you construct

287
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 2: your roster, how you deal with your salary cap, what

288
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 2: you decide to do going forward with your leadership, both

289
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 2: in personnel and in coaching. If you get it right,

290
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:19,560
Speaker 2: you can turn this thing back around. Listen, I'm not

291
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:21,960
Speaker 2: saying you're going to compete with Kansas City or Buffalo

292
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 2: or Baltimore in twenty twenty five, but you can compete

293
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:27,360
Speaker 2: with Houston because this is not a great division. I

294
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 2: watch them as you probably did on Saturday. They're not

295
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 2: a great team. We know what the Colts and the

296
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 2: Titans are. The Jaguars have enough promising young talent that

297
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 2: they can get this thing back to a eight nine,

298
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 2: ten wins sort of team relatively quickly.

299
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 3: I believe that.

300
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:48,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree, and you can get eight to nine

301
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:51,840
Speaker 4: nine eight a say eight and eight. I'm an old guys,

302
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 4: but yes, even the difference between eight and nine what

303
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,280
Speaker 4: this is for this team is not huge.

304
00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 3: No, you can get it.

305
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 4: I think the long term you serve with the franchise

306
00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:09,520
Speaker 4: needs to be how do you get structurally over a

307
00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 4: two or three year period up to the teams you're

308
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 4: talking about.

309
00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 3: That's a heavier lift.

310
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:18,200
Speaker 4: To have a legitimate Super Bowl hopes, there needs to

311
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 4: be some structure stuff in terms of the roster, Andrew

312
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:24,480
Speaker 4: needs your quarterback.

313
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, take that next big step and become that elite

314
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:28,560
Speaker 2: franchise quarterback.

315
00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 3: If that's the case, if he comes back next.

316
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 2: Year better than he's ever been, Okay, I mean then

317
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 2: this is not enough take, right, But I do think

318
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,080
Speaker 2: when you look what eight one score losses, seven of

319
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,120
Speaker 2: those in the final two minutes of the game. You

320
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 2: flip a couple of those and you're where we're talking about,

321
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:45,400
Speaker 2: so you can turn this thing around as quickly as

322
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:46,200
Speaker 2: it went south on you.

323
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 4: Yep, my take was also relatively cold. It we'll call

324
00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 4: it hot because it's Christmas. Same old, same old, has

325
00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:59,160
Speaker 4: gotten roll old. I mean, it's sort of the theme

326
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,080
Speaker 4: of the show, and my hot take is sort of

327
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 4: what the theme of the show is. It's the exact

328
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:08,200
Speaker 4: same stuff we've seen all year. Not enough plays at

329
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 4: the end of the game secondary can't cover, and then

330
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 4: you lose a one score game because you don't have

331
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 4: players except for Brian Thomas Junior who make plays about

332
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 4: the exits of notes and that's why they're not in

333
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:24,520
Speaker 4: the playoff.

334
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,120
Speaker 3: Hunt and three eleven or three and twelve min Here's

335
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:28,880
Speaker 3: how old it is. Gotten I stopped by.

336
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 2: A Christmas party on my way home from the stadium

337
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:33,360
Speaker 2: last night, and nobody wanted to ask me about the game.

338
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 2: Nobody even wanted to offer condolences like, oh, you guys

339
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 2: are dealing with this again. Nobody even wanted to talk

340
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 2: about the game. That's how old it's gotten. Because hope

341
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 2: on any given Sunday exists for NFL fans, Jaguars fans,

342
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 2: as sick as they are of what the season has become,

343
00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 2: still on Sunday you want to have a little bit

344
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 2: of hope that at least you might enjoy your team's performance,

345
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:57,880
Speaker 2: even in a dismal year like this. And it's gotten

346
00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,800
Speaker 2: so old that nobody even wanted to talk, even to

347
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,960
Speaker 2: give me a little grief about it, which everyone seems

348
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,119
Speaker 2: to want to do whether I'm in publics or wherever

349
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:07,120
Speaker 2: Christmas shopping.

350
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 3: Not yesterday.

351
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,119
Speaker 1: It's a season of cheer. Oh boy, Unfortunately I'm going

352
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:12,399
Speaker 1: to be a little gloomy as well. I think that

353
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,640
Speaker 1: was the final one score game. That's my hot take

354
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:18,320
Speaker 1: that we're going to see this season. We've seen a

355
00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:21,119
Speaker 1: lot of close losses, nine one score losses this year,

356
00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 1: because it felt like they were always close to getting

357
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 1: a win. I don't think we're going to see that

358
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:26,920
Speaker 1: the rest of the way. Mason Rudolph's now the quarterback

359
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:28,800
Speaker 1: for the Titans. I think if they had had him

360
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:30,800
Speaker 1: in a quarterback, I don't believe the Jags would have

361
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,120
Speaker 1: won that most recent game in Nashville. And I think

362
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,320
Speaker 1: the Colts are trying to put something together, proof something

363
00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:37,760
Speaker 1: to themselves the back half of their season. So unfortunately,

364
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 1: I think the three that we got are the three

365
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:41,680
Speaker 1: that we're going to have the rest of the way.

366
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 2: And well, especially if you're playing without more guys, right,

367
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 2: I mean, if Walker little because I thought cold Van

368
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:48,199
Speaker 2: Landon played pretty well. I mean, I know we had

369
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,159
Speaker 2: the holding call on that key fourth down play, but

370
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:52,240
Speaker 2: I didn't even notice it most of the game. So

371
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,720
Speaker 2: we obviously came in and did a pretty decent job.

372
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:56,959
Speaker 2: But you know, when you lose more guys, I mean,

373
00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 2: Ventral Miller's a guy that you might not have back,

374
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:03,120
Speaker 2: and maybe Anton Harra send you just if you Yeah, yeah,

375
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:03,800
Speaker 2: I think you're right.

376
00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:04,720
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a tough one.

377
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:09,119
Speaker 4: I think Sunday could be a repeat of yesterday because

378
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 4: the Titans are in the same boat. So you've got again,

379
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 4: two more teams in the same both that you don't

380
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 4: want to be.

381
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 2: I'll say this, Doug Peterson's four and one against the Titans.

382
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,399
Speaker 2: That's not something a lot of Jaguars coaches over the

383
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 2: history of that series have been able to claim a

384
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:23,679
Speaker 2: winning record.

385
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,439
Speaker 3: So maybe he's got a little something. We'll see. I'm hopeful.

386
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:27,119
Speaker 3: I'm hopeful.

387
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:28,960
Speaker 1: There we go, and I'd love to be wrong. We

388
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:30,880
Speaker 1: always love a Titans win no matter when it comes.

389
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:32,480
Speaker 1: Stay with us here we'll tell you what's coming up

Speaker 1: of the season, guys, and many ways this is s

397
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 1: felt like the season would never end. But we are

398
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:07,879
Speaker 1: nearing the end, and what's it gonna look like? Do

399
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:08,239
Speaker 1: we know?

400
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:10,639
Speaker 3: I think he's gonna look into over to the crowd.

401
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:17,040
Speaker 3: In terms of the in terms of all of it. Uh. I, Oh,

402
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:17,600
Speaker 3: we've seen it.

403
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,159
Speaker 4: I mean I I I the last few games in

404
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 4: a season like this, there's a little less I a

405
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:27,360
Speaker 4: little less enthusiasm for it. I think the game will

406
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:29,160
Speaker 4: look very similar to what the last few games will

407
00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,640
Speaker 4: look like. I think you're gonna see a bunch of Jaguars, uh,

408
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:36,680
Speaker 4: players that are trying hard, and you know, the top

409
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 4: guns aren't playing, So it's gonna.

410
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,200
Speaker 3: Be what we've seen. Uh.

411
00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:43,560
Speaker 4: Now, they might catch lighting in a bottle and have

412
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:45,520
Speaker 4: a really good game and get a win.

413
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:47,080
Speaker 3: Uh.

414
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 4: But it's been sort of middling lately. Yeah, I I

415
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,679
Speaker 4: I kind of expect that we'll see well, I I

416
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:55,520
Speaker 4: shet off the top and you kind of alluded to it.

417
00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 4: I it feels like the human nature of a difficult

418
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 4: season in the holidays and so many of their top

419
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 4: players not playing, and so many young players having to play.

420
00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:08,159
Speaker 4: I mean, it just feels like the weight of a long,

421
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:12,439
Speaker 4: disappointing season has just gotten to be too much and

422
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:16,640
Speaker 4: their ability to fight it back is limited.

423
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 3: Yeah.

424
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:18,679
Speaker 4: Most of these games at the end of the season

425
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 4: like this come down to I guess it. The Jagged

426
00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:25,240
Speaker 4: stayed in it because they got a lead. Okay, some enthusiasm.

427
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:29,159
Speaker 3: We're going. The danger of these it is if you get.

428
00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 4: Down by double digits at some point then guys. Doug

429
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:36,800
Speaker 4: talked about it in his presser this week. It's not

430
00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:41,000
Speaker 4: that you quit, it's that when you get down ten

431
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:43,920
Speaker 4: or something goes wrong, you sort of go off script

432
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:46,159
Speaker 4: and you try to do too much and then it

433
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 4: just sort of gets Well.

434
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:49,879
Speaker 2: Luckily you don't have the Lions or the Bills or

435
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 2: the Chiefs on your schedule the next two weeks.

436
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:54,439
Speaker 1: You've seen that, Yeah, that was not good. Team has

437
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 1: a little bit of a break for the holiday. We

438
00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:57,920
Speaker 1: hope you guys enjoy your holiday as well. We will

439
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,080
Speaker 1: be back here on JAGXAM on Thursday to talk a

440
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 1: little bit more about that Titans game coming up on Sunday.

441
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 6: H
