Speaker 1: It is Thursday, December seventeen. This is Jaguars Happy Hour.
Speaker 1: And now that guy who's got a walker set up
Speaker 1: at several area bonos, Jane Peace Shadriff, the worst places
Speaker 1: to have one. Welcome in Jaguars Happy Hour, and I'm
Speaker 1: j P. Shadrick. Jeff Flagaman coming along shortly. We've got
Speaker 1: a busy program for you, getting ready for week fifteen,
Speaker 1: the Jaguars and the Baltimore Ravens on the Inner Harbor
Speaker 1: in Baltimore, Maryland at M and T Bank Stadium. Gardner
Speaker 1: Minshew gets to start for the Jacksonville Jaguars. Lamar Jackson
Speaker 1: gets the start for the Baltimore Ravens. We'll see what
Speaker 1: kind of challenge the defense has this week. Tony Boselli
Speaker 1: joins us at four thirty today, and then we'll hear
Speaker 1: from head coach Doug Morone on the Jaguars Radio Network
Speaker 1: with the Doug own Show at five o'clock sharp this afternoon.
Speaker 1: Jeff Loguman with us. Now, Good afternoon, Jeff Martin JP.
Speaker 1: Where should I say good afternoon for its happy all right?
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, well, the problem I got confused
Speaker 1: because I have a bloody Mary right here and I'm
Speaker 1: just kidding. That's what happened twelve in a row right
Speaker 1: to row, So it's what it's well, straight losses now
Speaker 1: for the Jags, it's not getting any easier, obviously after
Speaker 1: last week's loss, and now the Jaguars have a couple
Speaker 1: of players on the reserve. COVID nine team lists this
Speaker 1: week and Bart added Trey Herndon, Jaguars cornerback. Added there
Speaker 1: was an earlier scare this year in the practice squad
Speaker 1: where a lot of guys were out due to contract
Speaker 1: contact tracing and all that, but too added to the
Speaker 1: list today and guys that contribute to the Jaguars starters. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's unfortunate, but I think the jag Wars have been
Speaker 1: really good so far at trying to minimize the damage
Speaker 1: that COVID has had. And that's a huge credit to
Speaker 1: Doug Morown, the staff and and also the players. You've
Speaker 1: had a little bit of an issue with the coaching
Speaker 1: staff and that you had two weeks to where it
Speaker 1: affected who was able to coach during the week and
Speaker 1: and also for a game day. But overall, I think
Speaker 1: they've done a very good job and as long as
Speaker 1: they can kind of finish it out because there was
Speaker 1: wide widespread speculation that a lot of teams that would
Speaker 1: be out of contention, like the Jaguars, would have major
Speaker 1: COVID issues at the end of the season, and that
Speaker 1: hasn't been the case. So credit to the players, credit
Speaker 1: to the coaches for keeping it together. Three weeks to go,
Speaker 1: three games to go, a little over two weeks of
Speaker 1: real time left, and let's let's get to the finish
Speaker 1: line of this campaign. The biggest issue this week for
Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars, well, the Baltimore Ravens offense. This is
Speaker 1: a Ravens team that swin. They are in must win
Speaker 1: mode down the stretch to stay in the a f
Speaker 1: C playoff picture. They're right around hovering around the cut
Speaker 1: line for the playoffs as we speak. They got a
Speaker 1: big win on Monday night, and it starts with quarterback
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. Today we heard from Jaguar's linebacker Miles jack
Speaker 1: about the challenge ahead with the quarterback really just kind
Speaker 1: of gotta just just deal with them and and hope
Speaker 1: he decides to throw instead of run, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean. And even when he throws, he can still
Speaker 1: make really good passes. So I mean he's a tough guy,
Speaker 1: he's he's very talented. Um m v P. Every time
Speaker 1: you turn on Madden you see him, So, I mean,
Speaker 1: he's he's the real deal, you know, and he's definitely
Speaker 1: gonna be a challenge for us this week. I'm excited
Speaker 1: to finally play against him in real life and just
Speaker 1: watching him do his thing in college and we went
Speaker 1: up to the preseason and play him when he was young.
Speaker 1: But um, I'm definitely excited to see, you know, see
Speaker 1: it in person and play against it. Well, he's gonna
Speaker 1: get a firsthand look Sunday at one o'clock. Log's Lamar
Speaker 1: and Jacks in the defending m v P in the
Speaker 1: National Football League. I don't know if I would use
Speaker 1: the term excited to get ready to face Lamar Jackson
Speaker 1: if I'm a linebacker, But nonetheless, you you talked about
Speaker 1: how the Ravens are hovering right around the playoff mark
Speaker 1: as far as being in contention, and right now there
Speaker 1: are the eight seed in the a f C and
Speaker 1: obviously the top seven are going to be in the playoffs,
Speaker 1: and ahead of them they have I believe it's Cleveland
Speaker 1: Miami and who is the other team I forget, but
Speaker 1: this is a must win situation for the Ravens. So look,
Speaker 1: if you want to get a little taste of playoff
Speaker 1: football for a football team that's lost both consecutive, well
Speaker 1: here you go. You're gonna get it. And uh and
Speaker 1: the quarterback is amazing. I haven't watched a Monday night
Speaker 1: football game and its entirety all year. It seems that
Speaker 1: my eyes start to get a little heavy, and then
Speaker 1: I have to go to sleep and I end up
Speaker 1: dvyar on it and I watch it the next day
Speaker 1: if it's worth watching. But I couldn't leave the TV
Speaker 1: set on day night. I mean, that was one of
Speaker 1: the best football games that I've seen all year, the
Speaker 1: game between Cleveland and Baltimore. And a huge part of
Speaker 1: that was Lamar Jackson, who left the game with cramps
Speaker 1: and then he goes to the locker room for a
Speaker 1: period of time, and obviously he had been dealing with
Speaker 1: some COVID issues in the weeks prior had to have
Speaker 1: some type of impact on him. On Monday Night. Well,
Speaker 1: he comes back after McSorley ends up getting an injured
Speaker 1: knee and leads the Ravens back to victory. I mean,
Speaker 1: it was unbelievable. He's an amazing talent, and Miles jack
Speaker 1: and Joe Shoulbert JP have arguably the biggest challenges for
Speaker 1: anybody in this game, because when you face Lamar Jackson,
Speaker 1: the read option, the read option pass, all of these
Speaker 1: gadgets that you have with a quarterback who has running ability,
Speaker 1: it stresses the linebackers like no other formation or nor
Speaker 1: no other offensive system can and it's gonna be a
Speaker 1: tough challenge for the Jaguars. And Miles Jackie used that
Speaker 1: term excited out man. I'll tell you what I'm glad
Speaker 1: he is because if it were me, I'd be sitting
Speaker 1: there going holland the hell are we gonna stop this guy? Right?
Speaker 1: Because if he pulls it out of the running backs belly,
Speaker 1: it's not like it takes him a while to get going.
Speaker 1: He's he's off in a hurry. And even if you
Speaker 1: have gaps filled, he can make a guy missing a
Speaker 1: gap and all of a sudden he's running for forty yards. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and you know, playing defense is all about gaps, but
Speaker 1: that's for people that are normal. Lamar Jackson is not normal.
Speaker 1: And I never thought I would say, but for years
Speaker 1: of watching Michael Vick I said to myself, the league
Speaker 1: will never see another player like Michael Vick. I just
Speaker 1: didn't think it was possible because Michael Vick was so fast,
Speaker 1: so explosive, soul, electric, And all of a sudden, here
Speaker 1: comes Lamar Jackson along and and he's shattering what Michael
Speaker 1: vick had done as far as the numbers go. So,
Speaker 1: I mean, it truly is amazing to watch him. And
Speaker 1: you're right and that gaps necessarily don't matter because you
Speaker 1: can be in the right apps and all of a
Speaker 1: sudden he ends up stressing somebody because of his speed.
Speaker 1: But also when you brushed the quarterback and you've got
Speaker 1: everybody kind of trying to keep him in the pocket,
Speaker 1: and you couldn't have everybody essentially go down the middle
Speaker 1: on an offensive lineman and say, Okay, we're just gonna
Speaker 1: keep him in the pocket. We're gonna have responsible rush lanes,
Speaker 1: we're gonna have a balance rush and it doesn't matter
Speaker 1: because he just needs just an instant to escape up
Speaker 1: into the pocket, outside the pocket or whatever he wants
Speaker 1: to do, and then he's off to the races and
Speaker 1: uh and he is, Ah, it's amazing. You know, last
Speaker 1: year They've shattered the NFL record by over a hundred
Speaker 1: yards of yards rushing in a season, and uh and
Speaker 1: they just continue to pile up records. Now, look, the
Speaker 1: way that you can beat a Lamar Jackson is to
Speaker 1: find a way to put them in a position to
Speaker 1: where they have to throw the football to where they're
Speaker 1: playing from behind. But the Jaguars don't have that of
Speaker 1: offense right now. They're going back to a quarterback that
Speaker 1: hasn't played and what is it like five six, seven
Speaker 1: weeks or something like that. So that's a tall task
Speaker 1: to ask a gardener. Mins you let off. We'll get
Speaker 1: to the Jags offense and the matchup coming up in
Speaker 1: a bit, and we're mentioning Lamar Jackson. If you're watching
Speaker 1: on Jaguars dot com or social media, you're seeing a
Speaker 1: lot of run game video for the Ravens, including Lamar,
Speaker 1: but also Gus Edwards and J. K. Dobbins. Mark Ingram
Speaker 1: is still there, though he's not putting up the huge
Speaker 1: gyardage that he has in his past, He's still a
Speaker 1: big piece of what they do there. But Edwards and Dobbins,
Speaker 1: they have a stable of running backs back their lives.
Speaker 1: They can get the job done too well. Edwards is
Speaker 1: averaging five yards to carry, Dobbins is averaging five point
Speaker 1: three yards a carry. And so it's not like they're
Speaker 1: slout this. I mean it's not exactly the Cleveland Brown. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's not quite as good as the Cleveland Brown as
Speaker 1: far as the running back pandem, but they're really good.
Speaker 1: But the difference here is that the quarterback is just marvelous.
Speaker 1: I mean, Lamar Jackson is the tenth leading rusher in
Speaker 1: the National Football League. I mean, think about that. A
Speaker 1: quarterback is the tent leading rusher in the National Football
Speaker 1: League and he's averaging like, what is it like six
Speaker 1: point three yards that carry? Uh. I mean, the numbers
Speaker 1: are tremendous and the challenge is tremendous and uh and
Speaker 1: I don't know if there's anything that has stopped him
Speaker 1: this year, with the exception of a potent offense on
Speaker 1: the other side of the ball. Now, for the Jaguars perspective,
Speaker 1: we mentioned Sholbert and jack and the challenge they have,
Speaker 1: but just in general, this is has been for weeks
Speaker 1: a depleted group. Injuries throughout the season have piled up,
Speaker 1: and now you've got backups to backups in a lot
Speaker 1: of places out there a lot of youth on the
Speaker 1: field right now, and that's just the way it's been
Speaker 1: for the Jaguars defense. That has to be a challenge
Speaker 1: logs when you're changing guys we especially like in the
Speaker 1: secondary for example. I mean, you've got so many guys
Speaker 1: that have played back there this year. It changes every week. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the numbers of being you were talking before before we
Speaker 1: came on here and you were talking about how many
Speaker 1: players the Jaguars team has used this year, which is
Speaker 1: I think the Heist International Football League. But if you
Speaker 1: want to break it down, for example, by position groups
Speaker 1: the defensive backfield for the Jaguars, and and focusing in
Speaker 1: on the four positions which are the two corner spots
Speaker 1: and the two safety spots. You're in a twelve game
Speaker 1: losing streak, and then you had the first game of
Speaker 1: the year. So you've got thirteen games. You've had ten
Speaker 1: different lineups, ten different combinations. And I'm not talking about
Speaker 1: I'm talking about Look, if you had the same combination
Speaker 1: in week thirteen that you had in Week one, that
Speaker 1: doesn't count as two. That's one. There's been ten different
Speaker 1: lineup than the secondary and Loan for the Jaguars this year.
Speaker 1: That's that's an amazing, incredible number and it's hard to
Speaker 1: have consistency. So you kind of roll that into Okay, well,
Speaker 1: we've also played three quarterbacks. We've also had issues at
Speaker 1: the defensive line position. We've had to change out some
Speaker 1: issues with the offensive line with Lenda being hurt and
Speaker 1: a j Can being hurt. I mean, that's that's a
Speaker 1: lot of change and it's hard to have success when
Speaker 1: you had that much change. But but to go back two,
Speaker 1: what are you talking about with the challenge of the linebackers.
Speaker 1: It's interesting how you're facing a running quarterback can be
Speaker 1: so challenging because it's a numbers game and a lot
Speaker 1: of people don't look at it from that perspective, but
Speaker 1: if you do, I think it helps you understand a
Speaker 1: little bit. Typically when you're trying to stop an offense,
Speaker 1: and let's just say that we're playing based defense against
Speaker 1: the based offense. And you hear people talk about while
Speaker 1: they played an eight man front on defense to help
Speaker 1: stop the run, Well, you have an eight man front
Speaker 1: because the offense with their regular personnel typically has seven
Speaker 1: blockers and that's five offensive lineman, a tight end and
Speaker 1: a fullback. There's your seven. Okay, well you're eight. You
Speaker 1: have four up front, and then you got the three linebackers,
Speaker 1: and then you got a safety coming up, so you
Speaker 1: outnumber the offense, and so it gives you a little
Speaker 1: bit of advantage. But the offense with a running quarterback
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, now the tailback also becomes a blocker.
Speaker 1: So if you're playing an eight man front on defense
Speaker 1: and the quarterback can run the football and the tailback
Speaker 1: can blocks will out. Now you're playing a run four
Speaker 1: to five front, but they now also have eight blockers.
Speaker 1: Just try to to block your guys. So it's much
Speaker 1: more difficult facing a team that has a running quarterback
Speaker 1: because of the numbers of it. And then also then
Speaker 1: you add in the fact that, okay, this quarterback can
Speaker 1: fake it to the running back. Who do I follow?
Speaker 1: There was a perfect example jp that we're gonna show
Speaker 1: tonight on Jaguars All Access a little cheap plug and
Speaker 1: that they faced the Cowboys two weeks ago and vander
Speaker 1: Esh the linebacker the Dallas Cowboys, Thank you very much,
Speaker 1: Joe and vander Ish fights on the run fake to
Speaker 1: the running back and he's chasing the running back and
Speaker 1: he's like ten yards away, and Lamar Jackson is running
Speaker 1: up the field and he's ten yards down the field,
Speaker 1: and Banderish still doesn't know that the running back doesn't
Speaker 1: have it. And then another play when Lamar Jackson sticks
Speaker 1: it into the stomach of the running back, the linebackers
Speaker 1: suck up, the safety suck up, and then they're worried
Speaker 1: about the running back, the rory about Lamar Jackson carrying
Speaker 1: them all, and all of a sudden he pops it
Speaker 1: back out of there and then he throws it those
Speaker 1: wide receiver or tight end for a twenty yard completion.
Speaker 1: So an incredibly challenging game with the quarterback who has
Speaker 1: mobility and also an arm. Difficult for the linebacker is
Speaker 1: the defensive lineman. Also difficult for the CBS camera crew
Speaker 1: as well. We'll see if they can follow those guys
Speaker 1: with all the fakes in the back field in the
Speaker 1: run option game. Let's come back in a moment, and hey,
Speaker 1: we'll get onto the Jaguars offense. Gardner Minshew is back
Speaker 1: in the starting lineup for the first time since Week seven.
Speaker 1: Coming up at four thirty. Tony was selling joins us

Speaker 1: I think when you're a coach and your name someone
Speaker 1: that's gonna play and go in there and you put
Speaker 1: whoever on the field, I thought, I think you're always
Speaker 1: gonna have full confidence. I don't think you're ever gonna
Speaker 1: get someone that's gonna say, well, we'll put him out there,
Speaker 1: and I got my fingers crossed. Gosh, I hope he doesn't,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So I think that you know,
Speaker 1: anyone that you're putting out there to do a certain assignment,
Speaker 1: whatever it may be, special teams, defense, offense, you know
Speaker 1: you have to have that type of confidence in him.
Speaker 1: Head coach Doug Morone earlier this week and welcome back
Speaker 1: Jaguars Happy Hour ahead of the week fifteen match up
Speaker 1: the Jags and the Ravens at him the T Bank
Speaker 1: Stadium in Baltimore. Sunday, we covered Lamar Jackson and now
Speaker 1: Gardner Mintshew We'll get the start for the Jacksonville Jaguars
Speaker 1: at quarterback. His first starting role for the Jags since
Speaker 1: Week seven. Week eight was the buy where they found
Speaker 1: out he had a thumb issue for a few weeks
Speaker 1: and he has not played since then until the third
Speaker 1: quarter last week when he relieved Mike Glennan. Finished the game,
Speaker 1: got a touchdown drive, they moved the ball against some
Speaker 1: soft defenses late in the game. So Gardner is the
Speaker 1: starter for this week. Logs Minshew mania is it back?
Speaker 1: We'll find out on Sunday. I don't I don't know
Speaker 1: if I would say that the Minshew mania. I mean,
Speaker 1: when you when you've got a football team that's lost
Speaker 1: twelve games in a row, there's not a whole lot
Speaker 1: of mania about anything. And I think a little bit
Speaker 1: of a discouraging part to this is when Minshew came in,
Speaker 1: there were some opportunities there in the red zone that failed.
Speaker 1: There were two fourth down throws that the throws by
Speaker 1: Gardner Minshew were not very good, and to be perfectly honest,
Speaker 1: the one fourth down play doesn't even give his receiver
Speaker 1: an opportunity. When it's fourth down, you gotta you gotta
Speaker 1: even risk and interception to make it catchable. But it
Speaker 1: was overthrown and uncatchable. And then the other one was
Speaker 1: another fourth down, was five yards away from his wide
Speaker 1: receiver who had zero chances. And uh so I wouldn't
Speaker 1: term it mania. I would more term it that the
Speaker 1: Jags are hopeful that they can get a little bit
Speaker 1: more out of the quarterback position. Mike Lennon did not
Speaker 1: exactly have a very good outing the other day. He
Speaker 1: hasn't been great. I don't think in any of his
Speaker 1: outings that he had the three games that he that
Speaker 1: he had an opportunity in, he's just been okay. He
Speaker 1: has pushed the ball downfield a little bit more, And
Speaker 1: I think that's the big difference that we're gonna see
Speaker 1: between the previous weeks and now with the team going
Speaker 1: back to Minshew, is that you won't see the intermediate
Speaker 1: the deep stuff being attacked as much. At least Mike
Speaker 1: Lennon tried a lot of those, didn't have a great success, obviously,
Speaker 1: or otherwise he would still be the starter. But with
Speaker 1: Gardner Minshew, he doesn't have the accuracy at times to
Speaker 1: throw the ball down the field. He doesn't have the
Speaker 1: anticipation or hasn't shown it to throw the ball down
Speaker 1: the field. But the one thing that he does do
Speaker 1: that's very exciting is to make all scheduled plays happen,
Speaker 1: and all scheduled plays are when he aborts a play
Speaker 1: or leaves the pocketary he's forced out of the pocket,
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden it becomes, for lack
Speaker 1: of a better term, playground football to where the routes
Speaker 1: and everything are off the table and now every guy
Speaker 1: just tried to create and do something himself to get open.
Speaker 1: And a perfect example that was of that was the
Speaker 1: I think it was a fourth down completion of Keelan
Speaker 1: Cole where he adjusted and shook the defender coming across
Speaker 1: the field when Minshew escaped out to his right towards
Speaker 1: the Jaguar sideline, and it was a nice play. Uh
Speaker 1: So we're probably going to see more of that. And
Speaker 1: and Jay Gruden and Doug Brown talked about this week
Speaker 1: that they the wide receiver group has to be ready
Speaker 1: to be able to deal with more off scheduled plays
Speaker 1: then they have typically dealt with before when Glennan or
Speaker 1: Luton were at the quarterback spot. And the offensive line
Speaker 1: has to to learn how to do that again too.
Speaker 1: That can be a really, really quite a challenge for
Speaker 1: those guys when all of a sudden, gardener, wait a minute,
Speaker 1: he's running. Now I have to let go of this guy.
Speaker 1: I can't hold well. And had that conversation with the
Speaker 1: Sally and we could have that conversation with him here
Speaker 1: coming up. But he he will tell you, be the
Speaker 1: first to tell you that when you play offensive line,
Speaker 1: you want a quarterback that's in the pocket, that stays
Speaker 1: in the pocket, and that trust the pocket. And I'm
Speaker 1: not saying that the offensive line has been great because
Speaker 1: they have had some shortcom comings as well, especially when
Speaker 1: needing to protect the pastor at a critical moment at
Speaker 1: the end of the ball game. And so, uh, look
Speaker 1: at it's gonna be hard to protect for anybody because
Speaker 1: this Ravens team has some very good players. This defense
Speaker 1: can play football. They play a bunch of different packages
Speaker 1: and so you have to get ready for different looks,
Speaker 1: you have to get ready for different personnel, so and
Speaker 1: so you're gonna have a challenge from that aspect of it.
Speaker 1: But then also you add in that Minshew at times
Speaker 1: will the board of play and not be where you're protecting,
Speaker 1: you know, as an offensive lineman, then it can be
Speaker 1: very frustrating and then you got to fight off the
Speaker 1: frustration and and deal with it. But yeah, it's gonna
Speaker 1: be a little different for the offensive line this week
Speaker 1: because you know, hear JP and not to cut you off.
Speaker 1: But you also have to remember something too in that
Speaker 1: Gardner means you can bail out on offensive line at
Speaker 1: times if there is an issue, and so that can
Speaker 1: be a positive. It's not always a negative, it can
Speaker 1: be a positive. And this week, obviously Linda going on
Speaker 1: to I R. Shatley is now going to be the
Speaker 1: center I'm sure for the remainder of the games, and
Speaker 1: who's gonna play left guard? Hopefully Norwell is able to
Speaker 1: come back because he will certainly provide a boost of
Speaker 1: that offensive line, and he was playing pretty good football
Speaker 1: prior to the arm injury. So we'll have to see
Speaker 1: how he looked when he comes back. And it's good
Speaker 1: that he is coming back because BArch is on the
Speaker 1: COVID list and I'm not sure how long that will last.
Speaker 1: But nonetheless, it's good to have the big, the big,
Speaker 1: mean offensive guard back at his position, and that's Norwell.
Speaker 1: T Grudin called him big nasty. This week is press
Speaker 1: conference in fact, so let's hope he's back in the lineup.
Speaker 1: Sticking of frustration, you mentioned that you could tell earlier
Speaker 1: in the year that there was some frustration building just
Speaker 1: with the body language of DJ Chark, the Jaguars wide receiver,
Speaker 1: and you know it's been a struggle statistically for him
Speaker 1: as of late as well. Jay Gruden, Jaguar's offensive coordinator,
Speaker 1: asked about that, and how do you jump and start
Speaker 1: your receiver down the stretch. J is a great kid,
Speaker 1: working very hard, and we've tried to target him and
Speaker 1: it just hasn't happened. You know, whether it's protection issue,
Speaker 1: whether he's been covered, whether it's been a poor throw um, whatever.
Speaker 1: You know, it just has not happened a way we
Speaker 1: anticipated it happening. In training camp, he had a great
Speaker 1: training cramp. He's a great player, and uh, you know,
Speaker 1: we just got to try to continue to figure out
Speaker 1: ways to get him the ball, whether it's UH in
Speaker 1: a slot, whether it's outside, whether it's UH in a stack,
Speaker 1: wherever it might be. We gotta try to figure out
Speaker 1: ways to getting a ball. And he's got to continue
Speaker 1: to work on his craft as well, So I think
Speaker 1: everything goes hand in hand. The production hasn't been really
Speaker 1: for anybody, uh from a standpoint of what we expect,
Speaker 1: So we just have to continue to demand more and
Speaker 1: uh hopefully we'll get more. Yeah. And Brutin also added
Speaker 1: that it's not just a Chark frustration issue. It's and
Speaker 1: everybody's frustrated issue with everything going on on offense and
Speaker 1: things just started going as well in the passing game
Speaker 1: and the changes in quarterbacks and everything happening. It's a
Speaker 1: lot going on churchs with battling banged up a little
Speaker 1: bit as the season has gone on. Two logs. But
Speaker 1: you gotta keep feeding the guy, and uh, he's your
Speaker 1: best receiver, I say, I don't agree with that. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's not a matter of feeding him. It's a matter
Speaker 1: of DJ getting open and having it thrown to him.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's the one thing I will say this
Speaker 1: past game, DJ didn't get the separation that was needed
Speaker 1: to be able to get the catches that he wants
Speaker 1: or that they want to get him. I mean, Uh,
Speaker 1: Malcolm Butler did a very good job in covering him,
Speaker 1: and so credit the defender for for doing a good
Speaker 1: job and DJ, I don't know if he's still ailing.
Speaker 1: He's dealt with some injuries this year, and is that
Speaker 1: still bothering him maybe, because I can tell you this
Speaker 1: that watching DJ in person and watching DJ on film,
Speaker 1: I didn't see the DJ that I've seen in the
Speaker 1: past where you find out that he's open on a
Speaker 1: lot of plays and he's not getting the ball. So
Speaker 1: I think when Gruden's talking there and he's saying, hey, look,
Speaker 1: we need to get on the ball, you're just I
Speaker 1: think it's I'm not trying to be politically correct, but
Speaker 1: he's trying to say, hey, look, we do need to
Speaker 1: get our good players the ball. But he also said
Speaker 1: that DJ needs to continue to work on his craft,
Speaker 1: and that's very true. And I think sometimes you get
Speaker 1: into a little bit of a bad spot. I think
Speaker 1: when you continue to talk about how we need to
Speaker 1: get him the ball, we need to get him the ball,
Speaker 1: because then you're you're changing the mindset of a quarterback
Speaker 1: and also of an offense, and that it becomes about
Speaker 1: getting him the ball instead of allowing us to be successful.
Speaker 1: And I think coaches need to sometimes say, you know,
Speaker 1: we need to get the ball to people that can
Speaker 1: that can that are open and that can win at
Speaker 1: that DJ, great, If that's Keeling Cole, that's great. We
Speaker 1: need to utilize all of our weapons. I think I
Speaker 1: would rather hear that in that situation that we need
Speaker 1: to keep beating DJ. We need to find him when
Speaker 1: you get him more involved, when you get involved early,
Speaker 1: because you hear a lot of that talk and and uh,
Speaker 1: and look at the reality, JP. When you originally brought
Speaker 1: this up, you talked about some frustration earlier in the
Speaker 1: year with Gardner Minshew, and you mentioned DJ, and yes
Speaker 1: you saw frustration, but it wasn't just from DJ, it
Speaker 1: was from Keeling Cole. It was from DJ and UH
Speaker 1: and you could and it was very clear that the
Speaker 1: body language wasn't real positive towards Gardner Minshew and I
Speaker 1: think the reason for that is when plays get aboarded
Speaker 1: and the guy is open, the receiver wants the quarterback
Speaker 1: to stay in there and throw the ball to an
Speaker 1: open receiver instead of to scramble around and then do
Speaker 1: something different out of the plays designed. So um Gardner
Speaker 1: Minshew has obviously gott I think, earned the respect and
Speaker 1: trust of his players once again. And and that's by
Speaker 1: performing and That's that's what happens in the National Football League.
Speaker 1: You have to continue to get the respect by performing.
Speaker 1: And Mitchi hasn't played in a while, and uh and
Speaker 1: here he has an opportunity to get that and turned
Speaker 1: that back from the players. Plenty ahead on Jaguars Happy

Speaker 1: you know, I'm expecting it, ready to roll. Um. I'm
Speaker 1: just glad to be back in the saddle. Get you
Speaker 1: up back in the saddle again. Gardnermentshore, the second Jaguars quarterback,
Speaker 1: will face the Ravens Sunday at him and T Bank Stadium.
Speaker 1: Welcome back to Jaguars Happy Hour. Dapy Shadrick, Jeff Logerman
Speaker 1: and Pride of the Jaguars left tackle Tony Boselli joins
Speaker 1: US now and the second half of the program. Are
Speaker 1: you feeling Minshew mania again, Tony? Um? Sure, yeah, he's back. Boy. Well,
Speaker 1: I'm not really trying to sell anyone on anything. I mean,
Speaker 1: he's back. I didn't I'll say JP, we said it
Speaker 1: on Monday night. I mean, I love loves reaction. I'm
Speaker 1: sure he's already given it. I didn't see anything at
Speaker 1: the end in the second half of that game, when
Speaker 1: he played the majority of it that made me think, boy,
Speaker 1: there's the answer, like, you know, he's back. Um, nothing
Speaker 1: about not taking a shot at him or say anything.
Speaker 1: I mean, we've gone through three quarterbacks now, and those
Speaker 1: three quarterbacks have together, I've lost been a part of
Speaker 1: the lost it themselves, but have been a part of
Speaker 1: twelve freight losses. And and if you look at the
Speaker 1: sample size that we saw in the second quarter in
Speaker 1: the second half last week, it was against the game
Speaker 1: was pretty much out of hand. I thought that Titans defense,
Speaker 1: you know how they were playing, and you know the
Speaker 1: Gardner take what they gave him. Yes, and he's does
Speaker 1: he give you more opportunities using his legs? Absolutely? Um?
Speaker 1: But then there's also couldn't finish driving the red zone.
Speaker 1: We saw some very inaccurate passes. I mean there's a
Speaker 1: number of things. Now, is there rust sure? You know?
Speaker 1: Is he getting all the reps that he probably will
Speaker 1: this week? Absolutely not so. Um he's gonna be the
Speaker 1: starter Doug obviously, and the staff leaeve. He gives him
Speaker 1: the best chance of winning. I believe, I trust that.
Speaker 1: I have no problem with that. But if you're expecting
Speaker 1: me to get my pomp pomps out and start cheering
Speaker 1: and doing you know, back flips, I'm not quite there.
Speaker 1: Come on, man, where's your two pomp pomps, Tony? Come on? Definitely?
Speaker 1: I mean, are you gonna say anything different? No? No, no, no,
Speaker 1: already already. So but I think if he I think
Speaker 1: he will be will give a level of excitement because
Speaker 1: of the all scheduled part of it. But but the
Speaker 1: on schedule, the intermediate to deep ros and and a
Speaker 1: lot of people may listen to what I'm saying about
Speaker 1: deep ros and and kind of misunderstand what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Like Gardner Minshew can throw a go route, which is
Speaker 1: you know, receiver running vertically and he throws it up
Speaker 1: and the receiver runs underneath of and he catches it.
Speaker 1: But what Gardner doesn't and hasn't done very well this
Speaker 1: year is when he has to stand in the pocket
Speaker 1: and he has to hit a timing route that's fifteen
Speaker 1: yards down the field or a timing route that's eighteen
Speaker 1: yards down the field, and he has to throw it
Speaker 1: into a window and anticipate it and make throw well
Speaker 1: before he you know, you actually can see it with
Speaker 1: your own eyes. He knows that it's going to happen.
Speaker 1: But those those are the parts where he struggles. He
Speaker 1: can throw a deep ball, vertical go route, but it's
Speaker 1: the intermediate to deep stuff that's timing that requires a
Speaker 1: throw that has more of a line drive type look
Speaker 1: to it as opposed to the rainbow stuff. So you know,
Speaker 1: it's look, I'm I'm not trying to down the guy
Speaker 1: or anything like that, and kind of along the same
Speaker 1: lines of Tony. But this is, uh, this is gonna
Speaker 1: be a tough go against the Ravens defense that's playing
Speaker 1: pretty well, that plays a lot of different looks and uh,
Speaker 1: and they get the practice against the quarterback who abandons
Speaker 1: on the board plays all the time, so they're gonna
Speaker 1: be ready for that. And Tony, I got a quick
Speaker 1: question for you about the off schedule type quarterback. How
Speaker 1: much of a challenge is that for an offensive line
Speaker 1: when all of a sudden, Hey, wait a minute, the
Speaker 1: quarterbacks running past me. Now I need to let go
Speaker 1: of this guy. Yeah, I mean, I think it's difficult
Speaker 1: in the sense that you don't you know, you don't
Speaker 1: really know where the launch point is. Um. I mean,
Speaker 1: if you have a pure pocket list, think of Tom
Speaker 1: Brady or Drew Brees or you know, go down the list.
Speaker 1: The guy going to be in the pocket, they're at UM.
Speaker 1: You can you can gauge the angle of the Russert
Speaker 1: and everything else is gonna get a game playing what
Speaker 1: you want to do at gift. Approach it the same way,
Speaker 1: even with a guy that's gonna escape, because you can't
Speaker 1: plan for the escape. You can't plan for the off
Speaker 1: schedule play. That's why it's called off schedule UM. But
Speaker 1: you just have to be aware of you gotta block
Speaker 1: through the whistle and continue to try to use good
Speaker 1: technique and understand if you can react fast enough when
Speaker 1: that guy runs by you outside the pocket less safe
Speaker 1: the left tackle, he escapes left and that guy starts
Speaker 1: releasing away from you, you gotta let go. UM, and
Speaker 1: that's where some holding penalties can take place. Now you're
Speaker 1: talking about two different dudes when you're talking comparing Lamar
Speaker 1: Jackson off schedule plays and Gardner Minshew. Gardner mins who
Speaker 1: can't extend plays and he can use his legs to
Speaker 1: pick up first downs. UM, the off schedule plays for
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson or seventy yard touchdowns. UM in the sense
Speaker 1: that he takes off of his legs and he's the
Speaker 1: fast guy on the field. Looks like a video game
Speaker 1: out there. So UM, two different, two different dudes in
Speaker 1: that sense. But there is a challenge whether it's Lamar
Speaker 1: Jackson or Gardner Minshew UM for an offensive linement, not
Speaker 1: knowing exactly where the launch point is gonna be and
Speaker 1: where that quarterback is gonna be to Lamar Jackson. Now
Speaker 1: a little more on the Ravens quarterback and that. We
Speaker 1: were talking earlier at Logs Night about the run game
Speaker 1: in Baltimore, and it's you know, we obviously have seen
Speaker 1: running games the last few weeks. The Browns can run
Speaker 1: at the Titans can run it. The Ravens have a
Speaker 1: stable of running backs when you add that running quarterback
Speaker 1: option into it, it just changes the whole dynamic of everything.
Speaker 1: Tony Well, I'm pretty sure the stat was, and keep
Speaker 1: me honest here, Jeff, I think it was. It was
Speaker 1: they had scored twenty eight points and they had thrown
Speaker 1: the ball six times against the Browns. I mean, unreal.
Speaker 1: And you literally have the best athlete on the field
Speaker 1: playing quarterback for the Ravens. And it's not this like, hey,
Speaker 1: he's gonna go zone read and he could take it
Speaker 1: a ten fifteen yard run and he's gonna slide down.
Speaker 1: He could take his own read and be gone for
Speaker 1: and he's gonna cut back and he's going to make
Speaker 1: people miss. And he's a he's a running back when
Speaker 1: he has the ball. Um. And so it's a huge
Speaker 1: challenge because you know, how do you you know the
Speaker 1: goal would be saying, hey, let's keep him in the pocket.
Speaker 1: You can't because he's faster than everyone rushing him and
Speaker 1: he can just get outside and take off. Um. You know,
Speaker 1: how do we force him to throw the ball? Well,
Speaker 1: it's hard, um, because he is gonna run whenever he
Speaker 1: wants and they have such a powerful running attack. A
Speaker 1: lot of times they're ahead of the chain so they
Speaker 1: don't have to drop back and pass. The formula to
Speaker 1: beat the Ravens and to put pressure on the mar
Speaker 1: Jackson in this offense is to get him out of
Speaker 1: what they want to do. And the only way you
Speaker 1: can do that is to get a couple of score
Speaker 1: lead and you have to put pressure on them to
Speaker 1: play catch up. That's what they struggled over the last
Speaker 1: several years is when they have to play catch up.
Speaker 1: And so this team has had a time, Yeah they've
Speaker 1: had The Jags have had the double digit lead one
Speaker 1: time in this NFL season. So they have to do
Speaker 1: something for the second time um this week against the
Speaker 1: Ravens if they want to make Lamar Jackson uncomfortable. Not
Speaker 1: not not not an easy matchup for anybody, I mean
Speaker 1: even even the elite teams in the National Football League,
Speaker 1: and extremely difficult for for a team of like Jaguars
Speaker 1: that are struggling and very young and and Lamar Jackson
Speaker 1: is so fast. When you when you watch the game
Speaker 1: this weekend, I'm sure it's gonna happen. And it's just
Speaker 1: because he's that good. Miles jack is one of the
Speaker 1: fastest linebackers that plays the game. I mean, he can
Speaker 1: run down people like nobody's business. Just watch and see
Speaker 1: what Lamar Jackson looks like compared to a Miles jack
Speaker 1: when given the opportunity, and because I ought to give
Speaker 1: people an idea of how fast Lamar Jackson's nobody, nobody
Speaker 1: hardly ever runs away. I don't think I've seen a
Speaker 1: running back or a quarterback ever run away from Miles
Speaker 1: and uh and this quarterback in Lamar Jackson can do that.
Speaker 1: Here's one for you guys. If the Ravens win out,
Speaker 1: get the playoffs and and make this run and Lamar
Speaker 1: has a big stretch run here, could he win the
Speaker 1: m v P again, Tony No, No, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't think so. Yeah. I think that's out of
Speaker 1: the question just because of how they played in the
Speaker 1: middle of the season. I mean, I think, really the
Speaker 1: m v P races the three it's the three horse
Speaker 1: race right now. It's Aaron Rodgers to Patrick Mahomes. Those
Speaker 1: are the favorites. I do think Derrick Henry if he can,
Speaker 1: if he runs off, you know, a couple of hundred
Speaker 1: fifty yard games and gets over two thousand yards for
Speaker 1: the season, I think he'll get consideration. Um, But he
Speaker 1: is definitely the third third guy in that race. UM.
Speaker 1: And so right now I agree with Jeff. It's mainly
Speaker 1: two guys in Homes at Rogers. The closest third is
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry. You got you gotta do something crazy special
Speaker 1: as a running back to be involved in the m
Speaker 1: v P coms conversation. And look, Derrick Henry. It, like
Speaker 1: Tony said, I if all sudden he does rip off
Speaker 1: a couple two yard games and and as dominant and
Speaker 1: leads the Tennessee Titans to uh tremendous finish to the season,
Speaker 1: and then all of sudden Aaron Rodgers and Patrick Mahomes struggle.
Speaker 1: Those things are not very likely though, but if that
Speaker 1: were to happened, then he would have a chance of
Speaker 1: being the m v P. But but right now, JP,
Speaker 1: holy cow, Patrick Mahomes and and Aaron Rodgers. I mean,
Speaker 1: those two guys are are lights out playing well. And
Speaker 1: this is the time of year where the good teams
Speaker 1: really rise up and play big and big moments. And
Speaker 1: we'll see three before before we go to break. Jeff,
Speaker 1: did you see I mean mentioned Patrick Mahomes And this
Speaker 1: is off topic of the Jaguars are this Ravens game. Um,
Speaker 1: but Jeff Forever has said that Patrick Holmes was the
Speaker 1: best quarterback college quarterback he ever saw on tape. Sean
Speaker 1: Payton came out this week for the Saints head coach
Speaker 1: and said Patrick Mahomes had the greatest workout he'd ever
Speaker 1: seen of any college quarterback. So Logs and good company
Speaker 1: with Sean Payton as far as evaluating quarterbacks. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: saw that that was pretty cool. Logs will be a
Speaker 1: bit more excited than that. Let's back. Let's try to
Speaker 1: pump up j I appreciate that, Tony. I appreciate that.
Speaker 1: I just I would be a lot more pumped up
Speaker 1: as the Jaguars had him right now. I can tell
Speaker 1: you that too. Yeah, let's come back. At a moment.
Speaker 1: A couple of former Jaguars will be lining up for
Speaker 1: the Baltimore Ravens this week. We'll dig into it and

Speaker 1: Calias Campbell and Unique In Dockway, now members of the
Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens. The Jaguars faced the Ravens Sunday at M
Speaker 1: and T Bank Stadium on the Inner Harbor. Welcome back
Speaker 1: to Jaguars, Happy our j P Shadrick, Jeff Lagman and
Speaker 1: Tony Basselli and yeah Klaas Campbell battling a little bit
Speaker 1: of a calf issue. He has twenty seven tackles this year,
Speaker 1: four sacks, ten quarterback hits five tackles for loss, and
Speaker 1: we know the Unike and Dockway story traded to the Vikings,
Speaker 1: who then traded him to the Ravens, and he is
Speaker 1: has not done a lot statistically since showing up in Baltimore.
Speaker 1: But you know logs that those guys will be fired
Speaker 1: up and ready to go. And as Gardner Minshew said
Speaker 1: this week, Unike and Dockway might be out for blood
Speaker 1: on Sunday. Well, he might be, but the reality is
Speaker 1: he hasn't been very good for the Ravens so far.
Speaker 1: He had five sacks for the Vikings, He's got one
Speaker 1: sack with the Ravens, and uh, watching the film on
Speaker 1: him and I'm sure Tony has done the same thing.
Speaker 1: He's been unimpressive the last couple of games. Calais looks
Speaker 1: like he's battling back from two things. One, the calf
Speaker 1: injury that clearly has affected him doesn't likely. He looks
Speaker 1: like he doesn't have a lot of push off a
Speaker 1: lot of power, and he's kind of catching a little bit,
Speaker 1: which would indicate a calf injury that is not allowing
Speaker 1: him to push. And the other thing, too, is that
Speaker 1: Calais said this is said that Clay the COVID nineteam
Speaker 1: battle was tough, and he's still trying to get his
Speaker 1: win back from him having COVID. So that's two. It's
Speaker 1: never easy to come back from an injury, but then
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you have an injury then a
Speaker 1: virus that has impacted you. That's got to be tough.
Speaker 1: But I think both guys obviously want to play well
Speaker 1: against the Jaguars, but you all of a a sudden can't
Speaker 1: turn into Superman if you haven't been Superman over the
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks. Um. Yeah, I mean, I mean
Speaker 1: that's I mean, you are what you are during the
Speaker 1: season based on how you performed and what the film says,
Speaker 1: not what you did in the past. Um. And listen,
Speaker 1: Clay as Campbell is a very good player. He had
Speaker 1: and he had a great stint with the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Speaker 1: There's no doubt about that. But for all the reasons
Speaker 1: he just talked about, Um, is he still a good player? Absolutely?
Speaker 1: Is he the dominant player that we remember him as
Speaker 1: when he was at his height? Here, No, he's not.
Speaker 1: Um And you know you unique is a guy that
Speaker 1: you know similar to in the sense of the he's
Speaker 1: a he's a finesse rusher and that's what he is.
Speaker 1: And um, it'll be interesting to see the matchup between
Speaker 1: him and Cam Robinson. UM. I guarantee Unique wants to
Speaker 1: prove that there was a big mistake and he's gonna
Speaker 1: give his best and Cam's gonna have to set right
Speaker 1: and and do some right things because if he opens
Speaker 1: up and leans a little bit, Unique will get him
Speaker 1: with that chop a jump chop that he has. So, UM,
Speaker 1: you know, both those guys are gonna be ready to
Speaker 1: go and they're going to try to put their best,
Speaker 1: their best foot forward. Yeah, the numbers JP on these
Speaker 1: two guys are tremendous. In Gogway obviously, four years with
Speaker 1: the Jaguars, thirty seven and a half sacked, tremendous number
Speaker 1: and a tremendous amount of force fumbles as well. He
Speaker 1: has been a tomahawk chopping, crazy pass rusher and klais
Speaker 1: in three years with the Jaguar one and a half sacks.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's unbelievable and arguably one of the best
Speaker 1: Jaguar defenders in history, even though he only played for
Speaker 1: three years. He would definitely go up into that list.
Speaker 1: If I was putting that list together, and I think
Speaker 1: the most important thing about calais one of the greatest
Speaker 1: guys I've ever met, one of the greatest players I've
Speaker 1: ever watch, And you put those two together. I mean,
Speaker 1: that's exactly what you're you're always trying to find. I
Speaker 1: think in personnel is to find those type of guys
Speaker 1: that can lead your football team and be the example
Speaker 1: for your football team going forward. And I think there's
Speaker 1: a lot of guys that learned a lot from Klais
Speaker 1: Campbell here in Jacksonville. It would be interesting, though, I mean,
Speaker 1: we'll be talking about it, Jeff, you know that. I
Speaker 1: mean it'll be a part of the whip. I guarantee
Speaker 1: you that opening and early in that game, and probably
Speaker 1: for most of it. I know, I for one, it
Speaker 1: will be hard not to watch and see what Place
Speaker 1: is doing and watch the matchup between Yunique and camp Robinson.
Speaker 1: To me, these are guys that were part of this
Speaker 1: organization for a long time. UM left for different reasons
Speaker 1: this year. UM, and we're both I think both, you know,
Speaker 1: especially Clays, we're fan favorites and people the fans didn't
Speaker 1: want to see leave. So it's gonna be much, you know,
Speaker 1: a lot of attention on it, a lot of attention
Speaker 1: on it. The Peon Man of the Year, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: but which is a tremendous honor and it just goes
Speaker 1: to show you the quality guy that Calais is. But
Speaker 1: it was interesting that the jack Guars traded in Gockway
Speaker 1: and then the Minnesota Vikings turned around and traded him
Speaker 1: to the Ravens and didn't get what they paid the
Speaker 1: Jaguars for, and which is kind of surprising because that
Speaker 1: he had five sacks with the Minnesota Vikings before they
Speaker 1: decided to trade him. So pretty interesting right there. And uh,
Speaker 1: I was not a very big fan of the Klais trade.
Speaker 1: I think they got a fifth round pick for him.
Speaker 1: In my mind, that was an absolute mistake and that
Speaker 1: you keep a guy like Klais Cambell around just just
Speaker 1: to be in the locker room to help quote unquote
Speaker 1: raise guys the right way in the NFL culture. And uh,
Speaker 1: and I know that there's a lot of Jaguar fans
Speaker 1: that were very upset when they let him go, but uh,
Speaker 1: he was one of many that were let go after
Speaker 1: this past year. So there you have it. Oh, by
Speaker 1: the way, the Jaguars did have a transaction just a
Speaker 1: little bit ago. They had placed linebacker Comally Korea on
Speaker 1: the team's exempt left squad list, the club announced, so
Speaker 1: he's no longer on the football team. And other change
Speaker 1: logs to add on the defensive side. Well, and and
Speaker 1: interesting to me why, I mean, I don't know if
Speaker 1: you leave a team. Obviously there's some personal reasons there,
Speaker 1: so I'm not going to speculate as to what that is.
Speaker 1: But Joe Giles Harris has done a pretty good job
Speaker 1: playing that sam linebacking position. Got his first career sacked
Speaker 1: this past week and did a good job with that.
Speaker 1: But overall he's been playing pretty well. So I don't
Speaker 1: know if k had lost a job, I mean, I
Speaker 1: don't know. I don't want to speculate, but the Jaguars
Speaker 1: are okay at that position. But once again, now you're
Speaker 1: you're starting to lose depth and lose players, I mean
Speaker 1: this defense, and they've been dealing with that all year long. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and it was an interesting designation. Um And to just point,
Speaker 1: we don't know the whole story about why and how
Speaker 1: and and what the back story is, so no reason
Speaker 1: to speculate. But I was a little bit surprised to
Speaker 1: see it. Yeah, and we'll see what other moves there
Speaker 1: could be. Also, the injury report came out today. Tyler
Speaker 1: Eifford didn't practice yesterday with the quattas you limited today.
Speaker 1: Sydney Jones limited yesterday with the achilles issue, did not
Speaker 1: practice today. So there you go. Another cornerback notable there
Speaker 1: that did not practice today. And it's gonna be one
Speaker 1: of those weeks with another with Tray Herndon on the
Speaker 1: COVID list now and Sydney Jones not practicing today. We'll
Speaker 1: see what Friday holds. But that's more changes looks. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know what the status is obviously, because when
Speaker 1: a player goes on the COVID list, they could have
Speaker 1: tested the positive, they could have been around somebody. If
Speaker 1: Trey Herndon was positive, obviously he's not going to be
Speaker 1: available for the game this week. But if he was
Speaker 1: just around somebody who was, then he could be available
Speaker 1: this week. So and they don't release that information, we
Speaker 1: don't get that information. So that will be interesting to
Speaker 1: see what happens with there. With that, and in Sydney
Speaker 1: Jones of not having him available practice day that that's
Speaker 1: a little concerning he's been a pretty good football player
Speaker 1: when he's been available, and uh, I thought you were
Speaker 1: gonna get him back in the line up for the
Speaker 1: rest of the year, but maybe not. So I have
Speaker 1: to kind of wait and see. But if they in
Speaker 1: fact have to go to some other people, that could
Speaker 1: end up being the eleven different lineup in the Jaguar
Speaker 1: secondary in the season, which is an amazing number. It's
Speaker 1: just it's crazy when you think about it. I mean,
Speaker 1: when you say that, it's nuts. And Jeffrey, do you
Speaker 1: think back to the game last week in the fourth quarter.
Speaker 1: Late in that fourth quarter, Sidney Jones wasn't playing either,
Speaker 1: And I wonder if it's something aggregated in the game, um,
Speaker 1: and they took him out in the fourth quarter, if
Speaker 1: it's just it's carried over from then there, um, So
Speaker 1: that it's definitely a concern. Eleven different secondary lineups. I mean,
Speaker 1: that's that's almost earn't heard of. Really, I've never never
Speaker 1: seen that. It's something else. And and we'll ask Doug
Speaker 1: about this coming up on the Doug Moron Show in
Speaker 1: a few minutes, But seventy nine different players have touched
Speaker 1: the field this year for the Jaguars. It's the most
Speaker 1: in the NFL this year, it's the most enfranchise history
Speaker 1: for a single season, and it's the second most in
Speaker 1: the league since that's as far as the stat goes
Speaker 1: back on the official league site. Only the Dolphins had
Speaker 1: more players play in a season last year. They had
Speaker 1: eighty four players seventy nine different guys, and it could
Speaker 1: be eighty or eighty one depending on what happens this week. Yeah,
Speaker 1: there's crazy time left. It's still still time to go,
Speaker 1: so a lot of change. We'll see how Doug has
Speaker 1: to have managed that over the last few weeks with
Speaker 1: all the change, can't be easy, certainly for a head coach.
Speaker 1: So Tony, we've got three weeks to go, and still
Speaker 1: three weeks to try to go get that winning result
Speaker 1: and and snap this awful, awful losing skid. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think this is a tough week. You know, we talked
Speaker 1: about what tough matchup, and then we talked about lamar Jack.
Speaker 1: We talked about good defense that they have, They're aggressive,
Speaker 1: they have good players in that side of the ball.
Speaker 1: Get more injuries, you know, hopefully Gardner gives them a
Speaker 1: little bit of juice to change, you know, get something going,
Speaker 1: but I think it's It's a tough task for go
Speaker 1: on the road. You're playing a team that is in
Speaker 1: a must win situation to stay in the playoffs and
Speaker 1: to keep paying. So uh, it's a big mountain to climb,
Speaker 1: but hopefully they climb it. J and Tony. Hopefully James
Speaker 1: Robinson has a big day that will solve a lot
Speaker 1: of issues. It would take pressure off of Garden Minshew
Speaker 1: and keep Lamar Jackson on the sideline. It would be
Speaker 1: nice for Jane Robin said to make some headway towards
Speaker 1: breaking Fred Taylor's rookie Russian record. Agreed. All right, Tony,
Speaker 1: we will talk to you on Sunday. Tony, have a
Speaker 1: good one. See you guys. Tony Boselli out of here.
Speaker 1: The Doug Morone shows right around the corner. Our thanks
Speaker 1: to our entire crew, Joe Fortunado, Brent Reaver back at
Speaker 1: the stadium, Tony Basselli and Jeff Lohuman the head coach
Speaker 1: coming up in just a few moments. Interested to hear
Speaker 1: his take on this matchup this weekend, the week of work,
Speaker 1: and all the changes the Jags have been through really
Speaker 1: over the past few months, three weeks ago in the
Speaker 1: regular season. That'll do it for Jaguars Happy Hour on
Speaker 1: the Jaguars Digital Network
