1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,600
Speaker 1: With Jaguars owners shot con The Jaguars are back in London,

2
00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:07,720
Speaker 1: this time facing the Denver Broncos at Wembley. First of all,

3
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:10,520
Speaker 1: full them off to an outstanding start as we speak

4
00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:12,440
Speaker 1: on this Saturday, where a few hours away from a

5
00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:15,440
Speaker 1: match over at Craven Cottage. Seventh on the table and

6
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:17,160
Speaker 1: I know you have to be happy with the start

7
00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 1: for full of so far. Absolutely delighted and UM obviously

8
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:24,720
Speaker 1: looking forward to the rest of the season. But we're

9
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 1: hoftil great start alright, the Jaguars two and five, trying

10
00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 1: to get things going at four games skid right now,

11
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 1: but getting the organization back on track after a difficult

12
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:37,959
Speaker 1: couple of years on the football side. Um, how did

13
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 1: the relationship with your relationship with the players go into

14
00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:43,839
Speaker 1: some of the changes of the offseason and what have

15
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 1: you seen after those changes so far? Well, I think

16
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:52,199
Speaker 1: what we've seen obviously is much more competitive games. I

17
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 1: think the players have grown, UM and the coaching staff

18
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 1: Doug all the assistants have really done a great job

19
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:05,679
Speaker 1: developing him. Um. I think, uh, six of the seven

20
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 1: games we lead in the fourth quarters, so they're highly competitive.

21
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:12,479
Speaker 1: The last drive pretty much has determined what our win

22
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 1: loss record is and how we close him out uh

23
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:20,600
Speaker 1: and turn that into a w I think is uh,

24
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 1: you know, is the next stage. Doug Peterson has been

25
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,200
Speaker 1: at this for a long time in the NFL. Step one,

26
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:28,039
Speaker 1: he was a player when he first came into the league,

27
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,319
Speaker 1: So he's been at this for obviously a long time.

28
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 1: It understands how, um the cadence of the league and

29
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 1: how every week should feel, and how to talk to

30
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,679
Speaker 1: different types of people in the league. And that's a

31
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:40,759
Speaker 1: huge step when you have a leader like Doug Peterson

32
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,199
Speaker 1: in there too to start it and set the tone

33
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,200
Speaker 1: each week. That gives the steam a chance. Well, it

34
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 1: does that and obviously he's won the Super Bowl, so uh,

35
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 1: he's been to the summit and UM and obviously I

36
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 1: think you know, he's been absolutely phenomenal as a person

37
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 1: as a coach. So Jaguar's owner Shotgon with US, Trent

38
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 1: Balky and Peterson working together as a team to stockpile

39
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,800
Speaker 1: the talent this offseason. What have you seen from that

40
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 1: relationship so far on the football side, Well, it's collaborative,

41
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 1: it's transparent, um, and it is literally teamwork on evaluating

42
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 1: what our needs are and then identifying and UM getting

43
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 1: the talent. What are you most excited about on the

44
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 1: team itself? Trevor's second year young defensive players. What do

45
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 1: you want to see on Sunday? Well, what I want

46
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 1: to see is obviously the team to reach its full potential.

47
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 1: What I'm excited about is every game before the game

48
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 1: during the week they believe they can win. Jags owner

49
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 1: shot con with us. It's the ninth London game for

50
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 1: the Jaguars, the eighth at Wembley. The footprint in the

51
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:54,800
Speaker 1: UK for the team has grown over the years. Of

52
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 1: course there's full time staff on the ground here, but

53
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,920
Speaker 1: now a different step operating the event and the facility

54
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 1: itself for the game. That's a huge step for this

55
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 1: organization and it should be pulled off well. And when

56
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: it is that, could you know, move forward the idea

57
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:14,239
Speaker 1: of doing this UM obviously in running it year to year. Absolutely,

58
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:19,079
Speaker 1: London game is a big part of Jacksonville Jaguars UM.

59
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 1: I think we're expecting over eighty five thousand fans UM,

60
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 1: so it's really going to be a historic game in

61
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 1: many different ways. You want to do this for a

62
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:30,519
Speaker 1: long time, right, this is this is going to stick

63
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:33,680
Speaker 1: around for a while. The London idea here. Absolutely. I think, uh,

64
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 1: it's part of our DNA now and we'll be continuing it.

65
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 1: And of course that means that Jaguars are content and

66
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:44,120
Speaker 1: are staying in Jacksonville for generations to come as well,

67
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 1: and that Miller Electric Center is a big piece of that.

68
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 1: The facility is going up. We walk in the building

69
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 1: every day and you walk in the morning. This is

70
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 1: how construction works. I get it. You walk in the morning,

71
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 1: something hasn't happened. You walk out, it's done, and it's

72
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 1: moving quickly. And that's got to be exciting to see

73
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 1: it is. You know, our goal was to have a

74
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 1: state of the art facility. That's what we'll have. Then

75
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 1: it goes across the street of course, to the shipyards area,

76
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 1: the Four Seasons property, everything that's starting to go there.

77
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:17,839
Speaker 1: Once that begins, then downtown can really start maximizing that potential. Absolutely.

78
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 1: Jacksonville has a great river front and it's taken a

79
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 1: few years to get the overpassed down and really maximize

80
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 1: um that great natural asset we have um So you know,

81
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,720
Speaker 1: I'm really kind of excited to see that come to fruition.

82
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 1: Al Right, whatever're what Game eight into the season. Now,

83
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:42,120
Speaker 1: the message for the Jaguars fans now halfway through this season,

84
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 1: it's a close football team right there on the edge.

85
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 1: There's a lot of development around the stadium and things

86
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,720
Speaker 1: are looking up for this organization right absolutely. And I

87
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,800
Speaker 1: think you know, we got to remember the two critical

88
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:58,040
Speaker 1: parts of the modern NFL team as the head coach

89
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 1: and the quarterback, and we're blood to have em both

90
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 1: who can help shape this team into a consistent winner.

91
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 1: Thanks for the time, appreciate privilege, my privilege. Thanks
