I mean, smooth 12 00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 1: places with such intensity and energy. He's fun to watch, 13 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:11,960 Speaker 1: but chasing down Patrick Mahomes like you did on that 14 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:14,560 Speaker 1: he needed a bye week, we all did, but especially 15 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:16,319 Speaker 1: watching them, I need another one. He can be on 16 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: high on the list of needing a bye week, but 17 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,400 Speaker 1: I think we're second, third and fourth, second, third and fourth, 18 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,960 Speaker 1: whichever wonder you choose, and now we're back in second, third, fourth. 19 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:28,960 Speaker 1: He gets to chase down the mar Jacks. Big yes, 20 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 1: big week this Sunday against the Ravens. Let's get into 21 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 1: big things. Big thing one is seven seven games remain 22 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 1: this season in two season Christian Kirk with a big 23 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 1: picture look of what this team wants to accomplish thrust 24 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:44,400 Speaker 1: of the year, and you bring it around you know 25 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 1: that the same kind of guy that you're kind of 26 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 1: looking for. Um, you know, there's you know, you're building 27 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 1: something special and you know we know it right now. 28 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: The season hasn't really gone the way we wanted to, 29 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 1: but you know, you don't really feel anybody given up 30 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 1: or kind of cashing it in. You know, everybody's still 31 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 1: looking forward to you know, what's in front of us. 32 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 1: And those are the type of people you want to 33 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: be around and you want to go to work with 34 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 1: because it is a long season. The NFL is hard. 35 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 1: It's hard to win football games. But you know we're 36 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,080 Speaker 1: here to to you know, produce championship level football and 37 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 1: so it's just all about believing, you know that we 38 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:17,920 Speaker 1: can be the best. And so I think, you know, 39 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,799 Speaker 1: that's my favorite part, you know, so far about being here. 40 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 1: It's just being a part of, you know, a special group. 41 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: Big thing too, is sixteen the rest of the season. Really, 42 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 1: the entire year has been about quarterback Trevor Lawrence making 43 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,399 Speaker 1: progress coming off back to back consistent performances going into 44 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: the bye week. Head coach Doug Peterson on his progress, 45 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 1: I think, yeah, get it, Um, it's part of it. 46 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 1: I think I think he's understanding, you know, our system better. Uh, 47 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,679 Speaker 1: you know, we're we're recycling plays a little bit more. 48 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 1: So there's there's the verbiage and everything is sort of 49 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:54,959 Speaker 1: you know, easier to just to spit out in the 50 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:58,680 Speaker 1: huddle than say week one or even in training camp. Um, 51 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 1: and all of that really helps him, you know, in 52 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: his in his growth and really his development, and it's 53 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 1: all starting to sort of come together for and big 54 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 1: thing three is eighty five. Math is our strong suit 55 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,959 Speaker 1: on this show. Forty four plus forty one equals eighty five. 56 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 1: Trademont Walker and Josh Allen, where is the past rush? 57 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: Where does the defund stand safety rateon? Jenkins on that? Yeah? Absolutely. 58 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:28,080 Speaker 1: I mean we've got seven games that we've seen that 59 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 1: three and seven. I mean we can finish with double 60 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 1: digit wins. But like I said, it's gonna be hard. 61 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 1: It it's gonna be hard, man. So everyone just needs 62 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 1: to be on this stuff. Um really be b B doubt. Man, 63 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: you gotta be doubt in this league. Loic. It's like 64 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: I said before, Man, it's Martin errors is it's small 65 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: and it's been and it's been killing us lately. Uh 66 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So and I mean, we 67 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: do have a young team, but we get we get paid, 68 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 1: you know, we get paid to do what we do. 69 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 1: So so we gotta come out of here before you 70 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 1: Now you have it. Those are a big things. The 71 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 1: bye week is complete, and everyone before the bike was 72 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: talking about using this week to fix that margin of 73 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 1: error and go through the tape and find out what 74 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: was going wrong and fix it quickly. With a talented 75 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 1: Ravens team coming in, there's a lot a lot to 76 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: fix on this to do list in the past over 77 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 1: the bye week. I wonder what's at the top of 78 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:20,039 Speaker 1: their list. It's a good question. My guess is it 79 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:26,039 Speaker 1: will be something to simplify and play faster on defense. 80 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 1: And that's not to say that they haven't been doing 81 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:35,280 Speaker 1: some good things. But usually when at mid season when 82 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 1: coaches go and look and try to find out, okay, 83 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,480 Speaker 1: what's going wrong, they usually come up with where we're 84 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: not going to fix it in terms of adding adding 85 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 1: pieces where can we get better? And usually coaches come 86 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: up with something, Okay, the guys need to play faster, 87 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 1: they need to be more aggressive, more aggressive, especially on defense, 88 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 1: and they need to play without thinking a little more. 89 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 1: So I would think you would see some some things simplified. Um. 90 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 1: The problem they so that on defense is I don't 91 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 1: know that they're a great man demand secondary. So when 92 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 1: you simplify, to figure out a way to do that 93 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 1: playing zone, Uh, and the pass rush needs to get 94 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 1: home more. And I think there's some things when you 95 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: say there's these huge heavy lifts. If they get a 96 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 1: little better pass rush lat in games and play better 97 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 1: in the red zone, they're a much better team. They're 98 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,599 Speaker 1: not far. But I don't know that there's anything film 99 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 1: wise that they're gonna fix. It's just a matter of 100 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 1: continuing this process of getting better. You're talking about a 101 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 1: stop in the Washington game, stop in the game against 102 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 1: the Colts, stop against the Broncos. Which is the difference 103 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,239 Speaker 1: right now between having six wins and having three wins 104 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: and Texans is what I mean? Yeah, I mean every 105 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 1: game except for the Chiefs, just a couple of those 106 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:44,359 Speaker 1: where all you need to do is get, you know, 107 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 1: one stop to break serve. I'm going to chase down 108 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 1: Cody Grimm, the safety's coach, this week for my pregame 109 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,359 Speaker 1: radio interview, and the safeties have played pretty well, but 110 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 1: in general, as you talked about John, the secondary needs 111 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,480 Speaker 1: to hold up better. They need to figure out what 112 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: they're gonna do with that one corner. I don't think 113 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 1: we're gonna see the return of Shatt Griffin right He's 114 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 1: been on I R, but he's not going to be 115 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 1: here next year. His salary cap number says that he 116 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 1: won't be here next year. And so you you've been 117 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 1: going with Tray Herndon and we've seen some buster Brown. 118 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 1: If they can just solidify that, improve the coverage, that's 119 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 1: tough to make simple, but if you can do that, 120 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,840 Speaker 1: it will help Josh Allen and tray Von Walker get there. 121 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 1: And really, to be honest, Trayvon Walker's pass rush is 122 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: all about the bull rush right now. I mean, anybody 123 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:30,359 Speaker 1: that watches knows that it's about Josh Allen. Josh Allen 124 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 1: is the guy who can change the direction of a game. 125 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 1: They need more playmaking from him, like we saw here 126 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 1: in November last year against the Bills. Where he's sacking 127 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 1: the quarterback and intercepting the quarterback and forcing fumbles. They 128 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,599 Speaker 1: need to do whatever they can to get him on track. 129 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 1: If they do, fourth quarters will be easier for this 130 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:50,920 Speaker 1: team for sure. And it's all about Josh Allen, and 131 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 1: Josh Allen has told us, hey, I need to play better. 132 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 1: And we all knew this was gonna come at some 133 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,279 Speaker 1: point this season. I'm seeing I'm sure you all are 134 00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:59,480 Speaker 1: seeing it getting questions, well what about a Hudchinon. Look 135 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 1: how great he's doing Intotroit And we always knew they 136 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,799 Speaker 1: weren't going to be the same player Trayvon Walker and Aiden, 137 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 1: But now you see the stats. I haven't seen Adan Hunchinsons. 138 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 1: Does he chase guys down for what are yards down 139 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 1: the field? On screen? Place after rushing the quarterback, turn 140 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 1: and run with the guy. Um. Look, the numbers were 141 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 1: always gonna favor eight Hunchardson this year because he's a 142 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 1: more p and that, but that's what he is. He's 143 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: a past rusher. He's not a complete player like this 144 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 1: kid is going to be. It was always a futures 145 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 1: gamble on him, not this season, right, and we knew 146 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: this was coming. We knew that would happen midway through 147 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 1: the season when the stats showed up, and then Trevor Lawrence, 148 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 1: we have to talk about him. Big thing to sixteen 149 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: this season we always knew was about him. These next 150 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 1: seven weeks are certainly about him. But you love where 151 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 1: he's going, the progress going into the bye week of 152 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 1: consistent back to back performances, Right, I think I like 153 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 1: and ash, I think I like the fact that the 154 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 1: progress has been I say slow, but it's been steady. Um, 155 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 1: I think I feel more comfortable with that then if 156 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 1: we had seen, like, uh, a couple of unbelievable games 157 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 1: and then and then a drop off. I like what 158 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 1: I saw the last couple of weeks out of him 159 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 1: because I feel like it's very sustainable. Uh. What I 160 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:19,200 Speaker 1: wonder is when are the gloves gonna come off a 161 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 1: little bit with the coaching staff and say, okay, Trevor, 162 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: it's it it's time to go downfield? Or is it 163 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 1: going to be a case where Trevor starts seeing it 164 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 1: a little bit. It's not that he's not going downfield. 165 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 1: He throws the intermediate past very well. He's he's got 166 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 1: a rocket arm. You haven't seen those spectacular downfield plays. 167 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:41,080 Speaker 1: Some of that I think is that is the receivers 168 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 1: aren't quite that kind of receiver yet. But you wonder 169 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 1: when you're gonna see the let loose play. But don't 170 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 1: you think some of that is the result of him 171 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: making errant throws, not being willing to take what they're 172 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:57,080 Speaker 1: giving him. And they've wanted to coach him to find 173 00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 1: what's there, Take what's there, I or you go down 174 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 1: And I think you're right. They don't have right now, 175 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 1: although they will next year with Calvin Ridley, have that 176 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 1: guy where you have the spectacular down the field to 177 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: your point, where it's been steady with some hiccups against 178 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 1: the Texans and against the Broncos with those bad throws 179 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 1: in the red zone. Um, that to me says it's real. Right, 180 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 1: it's over and over and over the last two games. 181 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: And you'll hear me say this again in hot takes. Um, 182 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 1: he's completed seventies of his passes. He's playing at a 183 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 1: much higher level. He's almost ready to start taking what 184 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 1: he wants. Right. There's those development stages. I think it 185 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,439 Speaker 1: was Billapoleon. You might recall them better from your days 186 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 1: in Indianapolis where he talked about. You know, the first 187 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 1: thing is the quarterbacks gotta figure out what's going on, 188 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 1: you know, and then he learns to take what what's given. 189 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: And then he starts to dictate, right um, and I 190 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 1: think he's he's in between those second and third and 191 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 1: we may see him dictate a little bit, but I'm 192 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 1: gonna save that for my hot take. And the biggest difference. 193 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 1: Doug called it the bonehead play. You're not seeing that 194 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 1: the past couple of weeks where that it's that play 195 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 1: where everyone will go back to it and talk about 196 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:00,719 Speaker 1: it for the whole week. From one play you take 197 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 1: away again, you can't do this, it's the NFL. But 198 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: you take away two or three plays in the red 199 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:12,319 Speaker 1: zone and they are probably what's the recond three and seven, 200 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 1: they're probably six and four, five and five. And he's 201 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:20,440 Speaker 1: had two or three game winning a much different narrative. 202 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 1: I get. You can't do that. The point is there 203 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: hasn't been that many with him, maybe two games where 204 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 1: you just went, oh, he was awful all day. Well, 205 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:33,559 Speaker 1: you had a bunch of games where it was that 206 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 1: one play. Well, that's more fixable than if he couldn't 207 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 1: hit the broadside of a bar so you can see it. 208 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 1: That's I think he's fine, Yes he is. And when 209 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,439 Speaker 1: we come back on Jaguars Drive Times some highlights from 210 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 1: the first half of the season to stay with us, 211 00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 1: Public is the presenting sponsor Sunday's game against the Ravens 212 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 1: where shopping is a pleasure. We're back Jaguars Drive Time 213 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,079 Speaker 1: Monday morning. Of course, coming off the bye week to 214 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: no game highlight from yesterday, but we do have game 215 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,200 Speaker 1: highlight from the first half of this season. We're gonna 216 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 1: go to Week two against the Colts a win there. 217 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 1: And Christian Kirk, of course, this was a game where 218 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:23,319 Speaker 1: he kind of stepped on the scene and we definitely 219 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 1: want to see more from Christian Kirk. Florence out of 220 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:27,840 Speaker 1: the gun, drops back to past middle of the pail, 221 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 1: Christian Kirk towards the one touchdown Jacksonville, two receivers left 222 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,960 Speaker 1: and robertson of the backfield. They thanked the pitch learns 223 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 1: to rather Christie. He's got Christian Kirk touchdown Jaguars. This 224 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 1: was way back week to the first win for the Jaguars, 225 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,559 Speaker 1: and this is really the game where we finally saw, Okay, 226 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 1: what can Christian Kirk do. This is when he was 227 00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 1: kind of stepping on the scene and we thought, if 228 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 1: they can have this every single week, they're gonna be okay. 229 00:11:56,360 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 1: He um he he feels like he as settled in. Um. 230 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:03,440 Speaker 1: You know, they were trying to force it to him 231 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 1: a couple of times, and we saw turnovers in Philadelphia 232 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,959 Speaker 1: in particular because of that. But it's it appears like, 233 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 1: you know, they talked about how they played golf when 234 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 1: he first got here and they developed the relationship and 235 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 1: that felt just like talk until the last couple of 236 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 1: weeks where it seems like they're on the same page. 237 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 1: And it's been a long time around here since we've 238 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 1: had a quarterback with the receiver and the receiver in 239 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 1: the quarterback know what the other one is doing. A 240 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 1: long time, maybe since Brunel and McCardell. Yeah, CHRISTI is 241 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 1: my hot take, so I'll back off a little bit. 242 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 1: But um, he has been I believe what they expected, 243 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:42,440 Speaker 1: what they wanted. Um. And you can you're looking right 244 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 1: now still for pieces that are gonna fit moving forward. Um. Again, 245 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 1: you talk about earlier in the show liking what Trevor 246 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:54,880 Speaker 1: Lawrence is doing because you can trust it to be 247 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 1: real as you move forward. I haven't seen Christian Kirk 248 00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 1: do anything that I don't think he can keep doing 249 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 1: and that they can use his pieces no matter who's 250 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:05,199 Speaker 1: in here. Next year, I could see him having the 251 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 1: same numbers he's got right now. New people are going 252 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 1: to take away from what he's doing, So I'll save 253 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,679 Speaker 1: the rest of my thought for later. Brian's gotta thought. 254 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 1: We'll see his hand. Yeah, good proof of vision just 255 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,199 Speaker 1: at that point. Um, the numbers might be what they are, 256 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 1: But a catch on a third down and thirteen right 257 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 1: doesn't show up in the stats is anything more than 258 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,319 Speaker 1: a catch for thirteen yards. But you may see him 259 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,640 Speaker 1: have more game changing plays where he keeps drives alive. 260 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,800 Speaker 1: All right, let's go to Week three, Los Angeles against 261 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 1: the Chargers. This was the big game where the turnover 262 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: ratio was the best it's been all season long. From 263 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 1: the perfect picked off five the check ward I'm brought 264 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,959 Speaker 1: down at about the five yard line. Is Devin Lloyd, 265 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 1: the rookie out of Utah. You will will recall after 266 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 1: this game, we had that Monday meeting and we were 267 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: talking about, my gosh, this season is going to be electric. 268 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 1: If the Jaguars could play like this every single game. 269 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:06,319 Speaker 1: We were talking playoffs, were talking wild card, and this 270 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:07,839 Speaker 1: was kind of the game where after a couple of 271 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 1: weeks he had almost come back down to reality. Yeah, 272 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 1: a little bit. And I think maybe Devin Lloyd is 273 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 1: a little bit of an example of that. Yeah, meaning 274 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 1: he clearly has a place and an ability in this 275 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:25,080 Speaker 1: league and such a nose for the ball that you 276 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 1: get excited about the talent and then you realize he's 277 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 1: also a rookie who still has to catch up and 278 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 1: figure out how to have that talent in the right 279 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 1: place every time. It feels like maybe that's a little 280 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 1: bit of a microcosm of the team a little bit 281 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 1: right now. Uh, you like, the ability still has to 282 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 1: figure out the little details of things to be great, 283 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 1: to be winning, to be effective. Well, we saw the 284 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 1: very next week, didn't we in Philadelphia where their offense 285 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 1: and their scheme is different anyway, and the mobile quarterback 286 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 1: in Jalen Hurts really cost him same thing in in 287 00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 1: London against the mobile quarterback. Uh, he struggled in that 288 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 1: and and really if we're talking about slowing it down 289 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 1: like you did in the first block here, Uh, he's 290 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:07,400 Speaker 1: one of those guys that it has to slow down for. 291 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 1: But I'll go back to draft day and Kyle Whittingham 292 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 1: is coach, was there. I interviewed him in LA in 293 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 1: Las Vegas, and he said, this is a guy who 294 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 1: was supremely prepared. He's lost right now, he'll figure it out, 295 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,360 Speaker 1: but his abilitys got three interceptions in seven past the defense, 296 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 1: maybe eight and a couple of bumbles recovered. Um, he 297 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 1: is a playmaking linebacker. They just have to slow it 298 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:29,400 Speaker 1: down and get him in a groove. It'll be very 299 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 1: interesting to see what they do coming this Sunday against 300 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 1: of course mobile quarterback from Lark Jackson. Is it mum 301 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 1: on the field more? Is Lloyd caught up? I'm very 302 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 1: curious to see how they play that out this week. 303 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 1: You want a guy like Lloyd, this is a game 304 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 1: you won him for. He's got range, right, Yeah and yeah. 305 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 1: And the topic was was Chad MoMA going to get 306 00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 1: more snaps than them Lloyd? Was he gonna get close 307 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 1: to it? I wonder if the bye week they were 308 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 1: able to catch Lloyd up where that's isn't a topic 309 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 1: any longer? Yes, exactly, All right, Final one, let's go 310 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 1: to Week nine against the Raiders travesy Tan. You could 311 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,160 Speaker 1: argue the m v P of the season, so part 312 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 1: for the now. First in goal, I snap eat t 313 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 1: N up the middle and he is in. He a touchdown. 314 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 1: Stick that ball out and get your first down. Instead 315 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 1: they flick it to eat t N at the fun 316 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 1: comes to the hand, touchdown and then check Wars pull ahead. 317 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 1: You know. Uh. He's another guy that had some turnover issues, right, 318 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 1: A couple of red zone turnovers that were very costly 319 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 1: um one against the Texans that and against the Giants 320 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 1: as well. Those are plays that he'd like to have back. 321 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:32,080 Speaker 1: And I noticed in this game and you see it, 322 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 1: especially on that thirteen yard run to set up that 323 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 1: touchdown in the third quarter, whereas he got into traffic. 324 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 1: You see him, you know, but he wouldn't used to 325 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 1: get in caught in college. It's different in this league. 326 00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 1: And he's figured that one out. Yeah again, And you 327 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 1: talk about guys to move forward with Christian Kirk, Trevor, Lawrence, 328 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 1: Travis e t n Uh. You feel like all of 329 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 1: those guys and even put Kirk in this are are 330 00:16:56,920 --> 00:17:00,640 Speaker 1: ascending and you feel like they're getting better and are comfortable. 331 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 1: You also, I'm gonna sure how to quantify this, but 332 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 1: you also sort of feel even in those highlights the 333 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 1: season so long you almost forget what they were doing 334 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:12,960 Speaker 1: against Washington, what they were doing earlier in the season. 335 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 1: You feel like Doug Peterson is figuring out each week 336 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 1: more and more what each offensive weapon, how he's going 337 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:25,480 Speaker 1: to use them, how he's going to deploy them with 338 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 1: et is the best example, you know, early in the 339 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 1: season sharing time with j Rob. Now all of a sudden, 340 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:34,679 Speaker 1: he's sort of the key to things. So you're starting 341 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:37,640 Speaker 1: to see them get what they're going to be moving 342 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,200 Speaker 1: forward as well well. Doug said in his news conference 343 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:43,399 Speaker 1: last week our system, right, he's our system. That's for 344 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 1: all the players, not just Trevor e t n Kirk, 345 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,119 Speaker 1: all of these guys. You have to learn this system 346 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 1: and how they're going forward. This is never about two. 347 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:58,119 Speaker 1: It was always about fure right, and that is highlights 348 00:17:58,119 --> 00:17:59,479 Speaker 1: from the first half of the season. When we come 349 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 1: back on courts drive times, some hot takes on a 350 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 1: Monday morning. If your car's out of manufacturer's warranty, don't 351 00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:19,000 Speaker 1: get stuck with expensive mechanical and computer screen repairs called 352 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:25,440 Speaker 1: car shield Now we're back Jack Buars drive time Monday morning, 353 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 1: which means it is time for a hot takes kind 354 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 1: of a big picture look with no game yesterday. But Brian, 355 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 1: what do you think of from um? I think that 356 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 1: the jag Boards offense and its ability to create some 357 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:38,719 Speaker 1: momentum in the last seven games is going to rely 358 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,239 Speaker 1: on these two guys, Say Jones and Evan Ingram. If 359 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:44,119 Speaker 1: you look at Kirk, you're looking at a guy who 360 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 1: has what sixty five catches I'm sorry, fifty six catches 361 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:54,720 Speaker 1: and seven touchdowns. These two guys have seven and thirty 362 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 1: six catches, but each only has a touchdown. Combined, they 363 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:01,879 Speaker 1: have just about nine yards more than Kirk has by himself. 364 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:06,160 Speaker 1: Kirk has six. These guys combined to have seven something 365 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 1: like that, and as a result, these two guys have 366 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 1: got to get going. They both have the ability. How 367 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,440 Speaker 1: many times, John, have you seen Christian Kirk No, I'm sorry, 368 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 1: Za Jones running open right and the quarterback isn't looking 369 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:22,880 Speaker 1: for him, doesn't see him. Um. Same thing with Evan Ingram. 370 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 1: There are plays that are there for him, but early 371 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 1: on in the season, the quarterback wasn't looking at the 372 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:28,919 Speaker 1: tight end. He was looking down the field to make 373 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,480 Speaker 1: a big play and they've had to dial him back. 374 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:34,920 Speaker 1: These two guys have the ability, physical ability, and their 375 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:39,359 Speaker 1: understanding of the game to be able to make more plays. 376 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:43,679 Speaker 1: If they do, then this offense will reach another degree 377 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 1: because it feels like the quarterbacks try to start taking 378 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 1: what he wants, as I mentioned earlier, picking apart and 379 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 1: getting where he wants to go. But they can't just 380 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 1: do it with Kirk and et N. They need these 381 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 1: two guys to step up. Yeah, it was a spam call. 382 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 1: I agree. I think they will get marginally better. I 383 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 1: don't know that you're going to see them explode and 384 00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 1: have huge numbers. But as Brian said, they don't need 385 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:14,639 Speaker 1: to get huge, huge better. They need have instead of 386 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 1: two touchdowns and need to have combined for three or 387 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:21,640 Speaker 1: four by the end of the season. And this team 388 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:24,199 Speaker 1: is close enough for marginal differences like that can make 389 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 1: a big difference. A Jones especially, I go back to 390 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 1: training camp and he was the storyline. Christian Kirk was 391 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 1: the second storyline. But it's clear you have Trevor and 392 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 1: Kirk who have that connection. Trevor's always looking for him, 393 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 1: maybe too much at some point for z A. Jones 394 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 1: to come on the scene as well. I think that's 395 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 1: the biggest one that stands out well. And it's more 396 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,520 Speaker 1: than just those two guys elevating their game. The quarterback 397 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:44,639 Speaker 1: has got to make a focus of going through the 398 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,639 Speaker 1: progression and finding these confers and sometimes taking them instead 399 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 1: of trying to force the ball into number thirteen. I 400 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 1: get why you want thirteen to have it right, but 401 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,440 Speaker 1: forcing the ball is taking away play opportunities for those 402 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,639 Speaker 1: two guys who have the ability to make them. So 403 00:20:57,960 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: it's a concerted effort, but at the offense is going 404 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:02,399 Speaker 1: to ump up and convert all these yards. I've got 405 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 1: so many yards but not enough points. Most two guys 406 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 1: are gonna have to be a factor. Yeah, I think 407 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 1: both of those Um, it could benefit too if they're 408 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 1: both here next year. I'm not sure what Evan's future 409 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:18,280 Speaker 1: is gonna hold because he's on a one year deal. 410 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 1: I hope he's here because I think I think he 411 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,679 Speaker 1: likes it here. I think he can be very effective. UM. 412 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley in this offense makes Za Jones a true 413 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 1: to outside receiver and Kirk a true slot receiver, angring 414 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 1: or two tight end um. I think that could be 415 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 1: very interesting to see how they fit. I don't know 416 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:46,080 Speaker 1: that za Jones is a true outside one, so but 417 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:49,880 Speaker 1: is is he a really good compliment to Ridley Kirk? 418 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 1: Is that your formula going forward feels like it could 419 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 1: be so I think that could be interesting next year mine. 420 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 1: As I said earlier, Ashley, you asked me, uh, it's 421 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 1: Christian Kirk has answered the questions and the reason I 422 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 1: phrase it like this, I get so tired of well 423 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:09,240 Speaker 1: is he worth the money? He's not worth them? He's 424 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 1: not worth eighteen million year? Well who is me? But 425 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 1: beyond that? Beyond that, I'm glad you asked beyond me 426 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:20,639 Speaker 1: a very few free agents or worth eighteen million dollars 427 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 1: a year? And I don't know how to answer what 428 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 1: worth means. I do know Christian Kirk, I believe, has 429 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:29,879 Speaker 1: been exactly what they envisioned he would be. If you 430 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:32,919 Speaker 1: extrapolate his numbers out, he probably finishes with what eleven 431 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 1: twelve touchdowns? Uh yards. He has also given Trevor Lawrence 432 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 1: something to rely on. I think it has helped the 433 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:49,920 Speaker 1: offense overall. So he's answered all the questions. Could he 434 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 1: be what they wanted? Uh? To me? If he performs 435 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 1: like this, there should be no criticism of the move 436 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 1: or of Christian Kirk. They had to get better, and 437 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:06,200 Speaker 1: they had to pay money to get better. They weren't 438 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 1: going to be able to get everything they wanted, but 439 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,239 Speaker 1: they knew they needed this guy and they were right 440 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 1: about what he would bring well, and they didn't want 441 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:15,359 Speaker 1: to spend the draft capital and the cash to go 442 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 1: and get either Davante Adams or Mike Williams in Los 443 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:22,199 Speaker 1: Angeles or Tyreek Hill who's putting up epic numbers in Miami. Um, 444 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,400 Speaker 1: this guy's making eighteen million, Tyreek Hills making thirty million, right, 445 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:29,400 Speaker 1: So yeah, he set the market for about a day. Yeah, yeah, 446 00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:34,840 Speaker 1: at least. But this guy's numbers are the best and 447 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:38,440 Speaker 1: will finish the best since anyone but Alan Robinson. But 448 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,719 Speaker 1: we remember that year the Jaggers were behind and they 449 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,639 Speaker 1: were throwing to catch up, and he made up a 450 00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 1: lot of ground and most of those numbers were when 451 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 1: the Jaguars were trailing mightily. Um, this guy, it doesn't 452 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:51,879 Speaker 1: feel that way at all. It feels like he's keeping 453 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 1: them in games with plays that he's making. He's putting 454 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:56,439 Speaker 1: them in a position to win even if they haven't won. 455 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,440 Speaker 1: At the end. His numbers won't be as good as Alan's, 456 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:01,399 Speaker 1: but they'll be more meaningful than Allen's. I think if 457 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:02,920 Speaker 1: you went back and look game to get yeah, and 458 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 1: especially for a year that was all about Trevor Lawrence 459 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:07,399 Speaker 1: and helping him. If it's a guy that you can 460 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 1: depend on for Lawrence and Kirk, then that's worth all 461 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 1: the money in the world alone. All Right. My hot 462 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 1: take is I gotta hear this one because I have 463 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 1: seen it and I want to know. I want to 464 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 1: know where you get it. See. This is why it's 465 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:23,159 Speaker 1: a hot take, because it builds conversation. The Jaguars will 466 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:27,040 Speaker 1: finish the season with seven wins, Now, I think that's 467 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 1: safer bet. What most people are saying is the Jaguars 468 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 1: could squeak out three more. Here, I think they finished 469 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 1: with six wins. No, this is a hot take for 470 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:36,800 Speaker 1: a reason. I think they finished with seven wins. I 471 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 1: think they beat the Lions, the Jets, the Texans, and 472 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:44,720 Speaker 1: the tight tens. Wants to finish with seven wins? Well, 473 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 1: anythink about that? Well, So it's interesting because I'm when 474 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 1: I'm looking at where the Jaguars finished this season, I'm 475 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 1: looking at the Jets and the Lions, Lions have won 476 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 1: three in a row. They have four wins on the season, 477 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 1: and the Jets have six wins and they've lost too 478 00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 1: in a row. I think, um, so those are good ones. 479 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 1: If they beat those two, that would be really important 480 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 1: for this franchise. Yeah, I think it would really be big. 481 00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:08,679 Speaker 1: We'll talk about more as you get as we get closer. 482 00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:13,400 Speaker 1: If they could beat the Texans and the Titans wants 483 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 1: and the Titans wants, that gets you three and three 484 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:20,639 Speaker 1: in the division. It gets you a win over the 485 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 1: team that all the fans want, and that's that's that 486 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 1: Titans game. Um. I think what's what's interesting. I always 487 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:30,680 Speaker 1: hesitate to break down the schedule. Okay, they're gonna beat 488 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:35,479 Speaker 1: this team, beat this team. Wow, you got me excited 489 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 1: the reflex, let's go. Um. But I think what fans 490 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 1: miss is they've been in every game really except one 491 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,399 Speaker 1: the Chiefs. They were stored in. But you know, so 492 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 1: you couldn't take advantage of opportunities to stay. I don't 493 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 1: see a scenario in these last seven games. I think 494 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 1: I think they'll be in six up. So can you 495 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:01,359 Speaker 1: close it? Can you do the things that you haven't 496 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 1: done in the first half The season. So I don't 497 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:06,720 Speaker 1: think Shelenn's four wins is that ridiculous to take so 498 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:10,359 Speaker 1: well made it seem like it was ridiculous at the beginning. 499 00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:12,640 Speaker 1: Would you feel better if I said six ones? Would 500 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:15,280 Speaker 1: be like, all right, that that can happen. Six Yeah, 501 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 1: and it's not six the rest of the second say 502 00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 1: go big or go home? Yeah, I feel yeah, I 503 00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:26,120 Speaker 1: think they'll get to six. I don't know if they'll 504 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:30,879 Speaker 1: get to seven. That's the one game difference. Again. They 505 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:36,119 Speaker 1: had a stretch of schedule with the Texans, Colts, UH, 506 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,440 Speaker 1: Broncos and Raiders where they could have compiled some wins 507 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:41,840 Speaker 1: and they couldn't do it. That was their chance to 508 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:43,880 Speaker 1: put up a big number in terms of the wind 509 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 1: column this year. But I think seven is achievable. Yeah, 510 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:48,960 Speaker 1: all right, and that is Hot Takes on a Monday 511 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,119 Speaker 1: morning when we come back on Jaguars Drive Times.

Um, but er 525 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:43,200 Speaker 1: Cisco has played at a very high level. The last 526 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,960 Speaker 1: couple of weeks, he's played very very well. He was, 527 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:48,399 Speaker 1: you know, persona on grata at Arrowhead Stadium, but when 528 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 1: you go back and watch, um, that wasn't a dirty hit. 529 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 1: As I said last week, he's really starting to take 530 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 1: a step up. Um, He's one of those guys that 531 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:57,639 Speaker 1: you really need to be able to count on going forward. 532 00:27:57,840 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 1: So I want to talk to him about his safeties. 533 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 1: Love it believe Andre Cisco is our targeted guest on 534 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:08,280 Speaker 1: the Safety Podcast, So I'm looking forward that I had 535 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 1: him on the podcast once, uh, I believe late last season, 536 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:14,680 Speaker 1: but it was sort of when he was still getting 537 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,639 Speaker 1: his feet wet, and I like talking to him. He's 538 00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:20,960 Speaker 1: a he's a sharp kid. I think you'll have more 539 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:23,520 Speaker 1: to say, not being a rookie anymore. So I'm looking 540 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:24,920 Speaker 1: forward to it, and I think fans will enjoy Here's 541 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 1: a good one. I don't know whether you know this show, 542 00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:27,920 Speaker 1: but his mom sent him down from New Yorker he 543 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:30,119 Speaker 1: was a high school football player to play IMG in Tampa. 544 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 1: She thought he had the ability to be a college player, 545 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:36,320 Speaker 1: and she sent him somewhere she thought he could get 546 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 1: the most out of it. So I like that story. 547 00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 1: He's a good kid. He absolutely is. And a little 548 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 1: bit of a weird week with Thanksgiving on Thursday. We 549 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:46,880 Speaker 1: will have Jaguars Drive Time on Wednesday morning, not Thursday morning, 550 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 1: but stay with us on Jaguars dot Com all week 551 00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 1: long as we get ready for this Sunday's game against 552 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 1: the Ravens.
