I was thinking Costa Rica would be 23 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,360 Speaker 1: nice to foot in. The football games will get in 24 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 1: the way.

Hey, Sheriff would have us lined up, 32 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 1: he wouldn't He would have us lined up pretty good, 33 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:56,639 Speaker 1: I bet I think so. So we'll find out tonight, 34 00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 1: you know, eight o'clock. Oh you know, the teams are playing. 35 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 1: It's just no matter when the games are. And there 36 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 1: was only one that's been announced. That's the London game obviously, 37 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,400 Speaker 1: the Broncos and the Jaguars October. Right then. There's been 38 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 1: a few a few leaks here and there about some 39 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 1: games not not the Jaguars, but just games around the 40 00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: league and uh, and some of the expectations there. And 41 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,359 Speaker 1: I thought it was interesting and that there was an 42 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 1: article that was written recently that talked about how the 43 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,360 Speaker 1: schedule kind of got put in a little bit of 44 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:30,680 Speaker 1: a cluster fudge because of the unretirement of Tom Brady. Yes, 45 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: I mean I think that's pretty wild, right, how they 46 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: had right, I think they had it almost ready and 47 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 1: then Tom, just Tom, like I know him, Brady decided 48 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,880 Speaker 1: it's uh, he decides to retire, like, oh, we gotta 49 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: redo the whole league schedule now. But I mean, here's 50 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: the reality. He's worth. He's worth the time and the 51 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 1: effort of making the schedule read on or or to 52 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,639 Speaker 1: get it right. If I'm an executive at CBS or 53 00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:00,239 Speaker 1: Fox and I realized they didn't redo the schedule as three, 54 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 1: I would have been, well, really use Fox mainly would 55 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 1: be very upset. Fox because Sunday Night Game correct them correct. 56 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 1: But Fox because they want to make sure that they 57 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 1: can highlight their up and coming broadcaster. Who's gonna have 58 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 1: a ten year or three million dollar contract? That's awesome? 59 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 1: How about that guy? The guys lined up for a 60 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:33,119 Speaker 1: broadcasting contract before his playing career is even over. That's that. No, 61 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 1: no quarterback I don't think has ever had, or any 62 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 1: player has ever had an opportunity like what's being presented 63 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: to Tom Brady to be able to leave the game 64 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: and to make way way more money than he's ever 65 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 1: made as an NFL player, averaging thirty seven and a 66 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: half million dollars a year. I mean, it's awesome, it's good. 67 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 1: I mean it's awesome, but it's it just goes to 68 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: show you the power of Tom Brady. Joe Fortunato, Hello, 69 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: I just wonder if that thirty seven million dollars a 70 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 1: year will put him ahead of his wife. No, I 71 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: think he's got a long way Togo. Absolutely not. No, 72 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 1: it's not even it's all the same family though. Yeah, no, No, 73 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,039 Speaker 1: But it's cool. I mean, I'm happy for him, and 74 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna do great out just because it's 75 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 1: it's Tom Brady, and he works incredibly hard at everything 76 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 1: that he does. A little more on the schedule, least 77 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 1: tonight again eight o'clock NFL Network, Our special here at 78 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,599 Speaker 1: eight o'clock on Jaguars dot Com. The Jack's social channels 79 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: as well Jaguars, YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook. What do you 80 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:40,840 Speaker 1: look for first when the schedule can? I really want 81 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 1: to know. That's why I asked the question, what do 82 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:46,479 Speaker 1: you first look for? Uh? Well, A couple of things, umum. 83 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 1: First of all, I look at it from a competitive standpoint. Okay, 84 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 1: how how good of a start can the Jaguars get 85 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 1: out to early first month? Because you want to be 86 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,159 Speaker 1: able to build momentum. So I look at for the 87 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,600 Speaker 1: first month in September, you find out, Okay, what's going on? 88 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: I look at the key holidays? Just from a family standpoint, Okay, 89 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 1: what's happening for Christmas? What's happening for Thanksgiving? Where are 90 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:16,160 Speaker 1: we that week? Um? New Year's Okay, what's happening there? 91 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:22,159 Speaker 1: What's happening around my son's birthday? What's happening around uh 92 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 1: dear season? Okay? So when you know we know when 93 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,160 Speaker 1: the when the trip to London is, which is I 94 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 1: believe the game is gonna be played on the So 95 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 1: is the bye week gonna happen the week after? Like 96 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 1: what has happened in the past? Will it happen sooner? 97 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,680 Speaker 1: Will it happen later? I mean, that's all kind of 98 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,480 Speaker 1: from a timing standpoint, because I mean, for you know, 99 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,359 Speaker 1: for our bye week, we get some time off and 100 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 1: that's you know, an opportunity to get away a little bit. 101 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: So I mean, yeah, I mean there's a lot of 102 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: things that you look at. I also look at it 103 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,160 Speaker 1: from the standpoint of JP. Are we going to Nashville 104 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 1: in November when we get to see the leave color change? 105 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 1: Are we going to Boston or a cold weather place 106 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 1: in December? Seriously, I mean, those are all the things 107 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 1: that you look at when you when you look at 108 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 1: the schedule, and then what what kind of restaurants are 109 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: in the city that we're gonna be Let's get serious. 110 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,919 Speaker 1: I hate to say that, but we're foodies. That's what 111 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 1: it's about. From a player's perspective, you're obviously kind of 112 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: looking early to get that momentum, and then that bye 113 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 1: week is key so you can kind of get your 114 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: body going and run. And I say, I don't think that. 115 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 1: I don't think that. The only thing that the players 116 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 1: care about when it comes to the bye week, I 117 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 1: think is the proximity of when it's gonna happen. I 118 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:42,600 Speaker 1: don't think they care whether it's week eight, nine, ten, eleven, 119 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 1: as long as it's somewhere in the middle of the 120 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 1: season of the season. If it happens incredibly early, the 121 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 1: players will be highly disappointed. And so that's the only 122 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 1: thing that I think players look at from that standpoint 123 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:56,920 Speaker 1: from the bye week. But the players definitely look at 124 00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 1: the teams that they're gonna play early in the schedule. 125 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 1: As far as the momentum building games that I talked about, 126 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 1: they also look at the cold weather games. Okay, late 127 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,600 Speaker 1: in the season. Are you going to Green Bay in December? 128 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 1: Are you going to Buffalo in December. I'm just throwing 129 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 1: out places that typically can be very cold. Um when 130 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: you are a northern climate team, you looked and saw like, 131 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 1: for example, if you're playing the same division as the 132 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins, if you're the New York Jets, are you 133 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 1: going to see them at their place in December? Because Okay, 134 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: you're acclimated to the cold in December. You don't want 135 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 1: to go down and play in Miami in December. You'd 136 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 1: rather go to Miami in September because you're used to 137 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 1: the to the heat exactly. So I mean, from a 138 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: from a player standpoint, I think those are the things 139 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: that are in point also the division games where they fall, 140 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 1: and we've seen now that the league has gone towards 141 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: having a lot of division games built up at the 142 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 1: back end of the schedule to make things obviously very 143 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 1: important when it comes to playoff implications. Now, over the 144 00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 1: at least the recent history last decade or so, the 145 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 1: jaguar Is really haven't had to worry about this. But 146 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 1: the prime time games. How many prime time games that 147 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 1: the last time the jack Bards were on Monday Night 148 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 1: football was twenty eleven. The last time they were on 149 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 1: Sunday Night Football was two thousand eight. It's been a while. 150 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 1: You have to perform well, obviously on the field for 151 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 1: a number of years to get that recognition, to get 152 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: those eyeballs on you, and you know it's gonna be 153 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: tough too. They've had Thursday night games obviously, they rotate 154 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 1: those around. Uh that could be expected a game when 155 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 1: you when you play for a team like Jacksonville and 156 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: you haven't been very good lately, you're hoping that you 157 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 1: may end up getting one national game besides a typical 158 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 1: Thursday game, because you know you're gonna have a Thursday game. 159 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 1: Everybody has to play Thursday game, and so will that 160 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 1: be the only national exposure or might you get a 161 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 1: Monday night game. The chances of getting a Sunday night 162 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,960 Speaker 1: game for this football team are nil. I mean, unless 163 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 1: you're winning ten games late in the year and they 164 00:08:56,720 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 1: flex you in. You know, that's the only way. They're 165 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 1: not gonna be on the schedule or in the season. 166 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,320 Speaker 1: It's not gonna happen. And so they were on the schedule, 167 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 1: I think an eight team, but they got the boot, 168 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 1: got the boot, see you later. But the expectation to 169 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 1: even make a Monday night game, I think it would 170 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 1: be I think maybe far exceeding the expectations. I mean 171 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 1: that this football team has been good and picked number 172 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,440 Speaker 1: one overall for the last two years. So if anybody's 173 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 1: expecting to have Monday night exposure, I mean, no, that's 174 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,839 Speaker 1: not gonna happen. I think it would be shocking if 175 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 1: it happens now. Typically, and in the past, you've seen 176 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,959 Speaker 1: some teams that played poor team on Monday night or 177 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 1: viewed as a poor team on Monday night just because 178 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: it was you know, the other team was really good. Um, 179 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:49,959 Speaker 1: could that happen maybe, but I don't expect it. I 180 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: don't expect it with this especially because of the extended schedule. 181 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 1: So now they Monday night has more opportunities to get 182 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,839 Speaker 1: more matchup, better matchup, and I just I don't think 183 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 1: that will happen. Look, you gotta start winning ball games 184 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 1: to get to get the expectations of Okay, are we 185 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,440 Speaker 1: gonna have a national TV game? And and it's not 186 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: a matter of all or it's disrespect. No, it's not disrespect. 187 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 1: It's a matter of not playing. Well. Yeah, you're not 188 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 1: playing you're not playing good enough football, not nearly good 189 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 1: enough of you're catering to a national audience at that point, 190 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 1: and a team that's not winning is not going to 191 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,560 Speaker 1: cater to that audience. That's how it works. Yeah, So 192 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think it's gonna be interesting. And 193 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 1: to you know, you lose the the home game opportunity here, 194 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 1: the one that goes to London where you're playing the 195 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 1: Denver Broncos. So you still have um what seven games 196 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,680 Speaker 1: left okay to be able to play here at home, 197 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 1: not not eight seven seven because the one in London 198 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 1: is the eighth. So here are the seven opponents coming 199 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: to Jacksonville this year that's already been out there obviously, 200 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 1: so the Titans, Occults, the Texans, of course, the Raiders, 201 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 1: the Giants and the Ravens are coming to Jacksonville and 202 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 1: the Cowboys too. But which is Uh, Cowboys are gonna 203 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 1: be a big draw, The Giants are gonna be a 204 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:12,319 Speaker 1: big draw. Um the Ravens I think will be a 205 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:15,319 Speaker 1: big draw. When I say big draw from from within 206 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 1: the market and from from outside the market. As far 207 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 1: as selling tickets, the ones that I think that are 208 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:22,679 Speaker 1: always going to be difficult are the ones that are 209 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:26,079 Speaker 1: in the division Tennessee in Indianapolis. So you you hope 210 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 1: that you get a favorable slot for those games from 211 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: a ticketing standpoint and just from a competitive standpoint. I mean, 212 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 1: that's a tough home schedule. The Ravens are a pretty 213 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,440 Speaker 1: good football team. They just missed last year. Raiders got 214 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: in last year. The Cowboys are always knocking on the door. 215 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: I mean, the Titans are the Titans, you know that. 216 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 1: I mean that is that can be a difficult run. 217 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 1: And then the road schedule, you gotta go to the 218 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 1: other side of the a f C West. Also, you're 219 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,440 Speaker 1: going to Kansas City, and I mean it is and 220 00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:01,560 Speaker 1: in l A the Chargers, that whole division is is 221 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 1: on the schedule this year, it's well, it's going to 222 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:06,080 Speaker 1: going to l A to play the Chargers. I don't 223 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 1: think it's not like it's We're not talking about a 224 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 1: hostile environment. It's just a good football, good football team 225 00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 1: with a good quarterback that had some some great offseason 226 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:19,440 Speaker 1: acquisitions and trades that they were able to make. So 227 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:21,320 Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be a tough match up there. 228 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 1: Kansas City. That's a hostile environment now, and that's Patrick 229 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:29,440 Speaker 1: Mahomes uh uh Andy Reid. That's about us as if 230 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 1: somebody wanted to take and then just throwing us out there, 231 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 1: if there's a Jaguars fan that was sitting there going 232 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 1: you know what, I really would like to maybe once 233 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 1: the schedule comes out, take a good look at it 234 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 1: and and make a road trip for me out of 235 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 1: and read the road games off again real quick, which 236 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 1: and with not the division ones, because Nashville is always 237 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,719 Speaker 1: the place to go to within the division. Indianapolis has 238 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,559 Speaker 1: got a good downtown. But if there's some fans that 239 00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 1: are looking at maybe going to another game in another 240 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,559 Speaker 1: market with the road games. So you mentioned Kansas City, 241 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:07,320 Speaker 1: and then the Jags are in Detroit as well, not 242 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: a place to go to. It's indoors. You know, you 243 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 1: got that going for you. Um, it's about all this 244 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 1: going they got at the jets. Um. I mean, first 245 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 1: of all, if you if you want to go to 246 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 1: the city, that's a great place. But you're not near 247 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 1: the city when you're at the stadium. Okay, you're still 248 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:29,880 Speaker 1: a pretty pretty good jump away. Keep going Washington, Um, 249 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 1: Washington is out in the middle of nowhere. Land, Maryland. 250 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 1: You can stay in Baltimore, you can stay in d C. 251 00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 1: And so really, I mean it's it's I'm trying to 252 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 1: be serious here and that there are a lot of 253 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 1: fans that want to go to a great place to 254 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 1: see a great game and also to get maybe a 255 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 1: little bit of local flavor. Keep going. Let's see those 256 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,319 Speaker 1: are the ones out of division. Okay, I'm gonna tell 257 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 1: you right now, the one at the top of my 258 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 1: list out of the division is Kansas City. Kans City 259 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 1: has got first of all, it's a great ironment, it's 260 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 1: a great stadium, it has a kans City is a 261 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,840 Speaker 1: is a is a cool town, has lots of things 262 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: to to to choose from. So out of all of 263 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 1: the non divisional road games that would probably be at 264 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 1: the top of my list. Um, New York would be 265 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 1: up there just because it's New York and New York 266 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,040 Speaker 1: is great. But I mean in the division, Nashville is 267 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 1: always king. If you're into d C and doing all 268 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 1: that stuff, the museums and things on Saturday, that might 269 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 1: be cool, but again, the stadium is not. It's literally, 270 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 1: you can it's closer to fly out to Baltimore's airport 271 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 1: to get to the stadium. Yes, I mean it's it's 272 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 1: literally if you if you were to look at a 273 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 1: map and you look at Baltimore and d C and 274 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 1: and go put your finger right between the two of them, 275 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 1: that's where that stadium is at. And it's horrible traffic, 276 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:49,160 Speaker 1: just a nightmare in and out of it. Yeah, I 277 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 1: mean it's it's yeah, it's not good. Now, I will 278 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:54,360 Speaker 1: tell you this, if if you were going to Baltimore, 279 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:56,680 Speaker 1: I would tell you that that's a great place to 280 00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 1: go to. It's got a lot of things to do 281 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 1: in the city. It's it's not my favorite city, but 282 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 1: the stadium stadium is right there in the Harbor's great. Yeah. 283 00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 1: But now, I mean Nashville, I can tell you this 284 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 1: Nashville is an awesome city. It's a it's a great 285 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 1: place to go to. It's a great place to visit, music, 286 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 1: music road, great restaurants, great music, great entertainment. They've got 287 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 1: the Colosseum downtown there where they've got hockey and different 288 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 1: events that are happening. Indianapolis, I think is a good 289 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 1: town as far as it's it's everything is right there. 290 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 1: When you go to Indianapolis, you can take an uber 291 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: from the airport to the downtown and you don't have 292 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 1: to do any ubers while you're downtown. You can walk everywhere. 293 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 1: You know. I don't think I've had a bad time 294 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 1: in Nashville. I've had to believe that I've had a 295 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 1: couple of bad mornings in that show. Yeah, I think 296 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 1: we all might have at one point. Hey, we'll come 297 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 1: back in a moment.

And and 312 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 1: and you know, let me let me just go back 313 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 1: a little bit. You know, obviously Cam Robinson, you know, 314 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:48,360 Speaker 1: our left tackle, we were able to get his contract done, 315 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 1: you know, prior to the draft and keep him here. 316 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 1: I think I think, you know, sky's a limit with him. 317 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 1: So was solidifying our offensive line that way really, um 318 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 1: really kind of helped to in some the decisions we 319 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 1: made in the draft. And and then we look at 320 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 1: these two players and both are high character guys, both 321 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:10,680 Speaker 1: would be great in our room, in our locker room, 322 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 1: good leaders, um, you know, and for us, it was 323 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 1: it was just the potential, the upside, the things that 324 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:23,200 Speaker 1: we saw and you know, as you know, Rich, I mean, 325 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:26,119 Speaker 1: as coaches, we were prevy to a lot of a 326 00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:28,359 Speaker 1: lot of film and a lot of conversations that a 327 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 1: lot of people don't get right, and a lot of 328 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 1: information and part of our job is to gain that information. 329 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 1: And and we just felt at the time that and 330 00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 1: even sitting here today that you know, the best for 331 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:46,160 Speaker 1: our organization was Trayvon Walker.

Our courtesy to them and welcome back 334 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 1: to Jaguars Happy our j P. Shadrick with Jeff Logaman, 335 00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 1: Joe Fortunado b Reaver and the Jaguars have rookie Minicamp 336 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,040 Speaker 1: coming up starting tomorrow. And that that was the conversation, 337 00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 1: why did you pick Trayvon Walker over Aden Hutchinson. Rich 338 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:12,159 Speaker 1: Eysens a noted Michigan alumnus. That's why he had a 339 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:15,359 Speaker 1: little vested interest in the in the question there. So 340 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,679 Speaker 1: that was the answer. Little upside and reports today that 341 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 1: Trayvon Walker has come to it that they've come to 342 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:26,400 Speaker 1: the agreement to sign his rookie contract slotted anyway, but 343 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 1: apparently that's going to happen officially a little later today. 344 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 1: A lot of money, a lot of guaranteed money, as 345 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,639 Speaker 1: you would expect from the first overall picking the draft. 346 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 1: And I'm looking forward to watching him in the rookie minicamp. Yeah, 347 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 1: what do you want to see out of him like 348 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:44,400 Speaker 1: this weekend? It's not like the old days when Dante 349 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,199 Speaker 1: Fowler's year really changed everything when he went down with 350 00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:52,679 Speaker 1: the knee issue and they're running like Lebanon cl it 351 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 1: was that's pretty significant. A knee issue is like a 352 00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 1: little tweet. It was not that he tore his a 353 00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 1: c l so um, but that was they had try 354 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:02,719 Speaker 1: out guys, they running eleven and eleven, and you know, 355 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 1: it got toned down a little bit for at least 356 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 1: in my view since that time, as it should be. 357 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I think I think Roland rookies up in 358 00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:16,119 Speaker 1: here and uh expecting and wanting them to go completely 359 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 1: full speed and wide open is insanity for two reasons. One, 360 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:25,720 Speaker 1: the players need to acclimate to what your expectations are 361 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 1: as coaches. These rookies have been preparing for the draft. 362 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: They haven't been preparing for football practice in the National 363 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 1: Football League. Okay, they've been doing the handshake and kiss 364 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:44,919 Speaker 1: babies tour since the draft, Okay, celebrating. Okay, So I 365 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:48,359 Speaker 1: think you've got to have I think a lot of 366 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 1: common sense with the way you approach a rookie minicamp, 367 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:55,879 Speaker 1: and that you're trying to assimilate these young players into 368 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 1: their into your system and to teach them what the 369 00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 1: expectation are not immediately say physically you need to show 370 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:09,120 Speaker 1: us right now, that's crazy, um. And then the other 371 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 1: reason you have rookies that are drafted that you have 372 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 1: huge investments in Okay, Travon's gotta what's the guaranteed money 373 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 1: signing bonus? Thirty seven million dollar total contract, but I 374 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:28,639 Speaker 1: think it's twenty four is guaranteed, its full guarantee, guaranteed, 375 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 1: fully guaranteed contract, ton of upbrunt money. Okay. So you're 376 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 1: bringing in the draft picks with you know, Muma and 377 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: Lloyd and all the other guys, Connor, and then you're 378 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 1: also bringing in a lot of rookies on a tryout basis, 379 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 1: so okay, So you have to be a little bit 380 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 1: smart there too, and that Okay, you've got a section 381 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 1: of rookies that are trying to make an impression. They're drafted, 382 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:55,159 Speaker 1: they know that they're gonna have an opportunity to earn 383 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:58,159 Speaker 1: the ability to be on this team. There's another segment 384 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 1: of rookies that are have a little bit of a 385 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 1: window and that they're given an opportunity to show what 386 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 1: they can do over these couple of days. So do 387 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:11,200 Speaker 1: you want to have that group that's trying to impress 388 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,880 Speaker 1: right now go on a hundred miles an hour with 389 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 1: this group over here that's trying to impress, but then 390 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 1: also knows that they're gonna be here for training camp. 391 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:23,879 Speaker 1: I don't want to have the two of these groups 392 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:27,440 Speaker 1: kind of mixing together, you know what I mean, Because 393 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,359 Speaker 1: sometimes you have guys that are a little out of 394 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 1: control from the group that doesn't have a contract, that's 395 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:36,879 Speaker 1: here on a tryout basis show something that's trying to 396 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:40,360 Speaker 1: show something in a limited window. And I totally appreciate 397 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:43,520 Speaker 1: that and respect that, but you've gotta be careful. You 398 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 1: have to limit I think the number of group drills 399 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,639 Speaker 1: that you do. You do more of the individual work, 400 00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 1: and it's a lot of classroom stuff to see how 401 00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:58,879 Speaker 1: the retention is and um, but physically it's it's showing 402 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 1: them the expectation, and it's it's getting them to work 403 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:06,280 Speaker 1: in his shape. I just remember when you go back 404 00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 1: and you mentioned Dante Fowler when he tours a c L. 405 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 1: This was a very tough, demanding practice that Dante Fowler 406 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:20,440 Speaker 1: was getting winded and his legs were getting tired. And 407 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 1: I think that contributed to the a c L terror 408 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 1: that he sustained in that practice because he wasn't conditioning, 409 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 1: conditioned where he needed to be. I truly believe that 410 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,119 Speaker 1: because I was watching him in practice, going this is 411 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:36,359 Speaker 1: not good. He's getting winded because he's going a hundred 412 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 1: miles an hour trying to impress I'm a first round pick. 413 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 1: I want to show everybody why I'm a first round pick. 414 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 1: And uh and then one bad step there it goes. 415 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:51,119 Speaker 1: So this weekend, Tomorrow and Saturday, there will be a 416 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:54,879 Speaker 1: little over forty players total that are participating in this. 417 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:57,440 Speaker 1: Of course, the draft picks, the undrafted players that have signed, 418 00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 1: as you mentioned, some tryout players are coming in as well. 419 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: Jimmy Smith's son is going to be a part of 420 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 1: this this weekend, running back from Wyoming. He will be 421 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 1: here as well. Um, there'll be some you know, some 422 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:13,399 Speaker 1: light team reps ten or fifteen plays of seven on seven, 423 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 1: but it's mainly drills, as you said, getting the lay 424 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 1: of the land. How do you what's the operation of 425 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 1: the NFL for a lot of these guys who haven't 426 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,720 Speaker 1: done it before, or you want to see athletically how 427 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 1: they move, you know, it's a firsthand look at some 428 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 1: of these guys that are here on a tryout basis. Look, 429 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:34,199 Speaker 1: you know what your your draft picks are. I mean, 430 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:37,400 Speaker 1: you've done a ton of work on them. A lot 431 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,879 Speaker 1: of the the undrafted signed rookies you've done work on 432 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:44,119 Speaker 1: them as well. And then some of these tryouts you 433 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 1: probably haven't done quite as much work, or you don't 434 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:50,160 Speaker 1: know as much about some of them. I mean, you'd 435 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:54,679 Speaker 1: like to think that you're scouting department knows everything about everybody, 436 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:58,359 Speaker 1: but that's not the case sometimes And the reality is 437 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 1: that sometimes your evaluation is off, as we've seen with 438 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 1: the history of the draft overall. So you might end 439 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,440 Speaker 1: up having a very poor report on a guy that's 440 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 1: coming in here on a tryout basis that when you 441 00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:11,639 Speaker 1: see him in person, you're like, Wow, why why did 442 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:13,959 Speaker 1: we only have him with a three point oh grade 443 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 1: when he's moving around like he's a he's a five 444 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 1: point eight grade. Let's give him a chance, let's sign 445 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 1: him no contract. So it's a great opportunity for a 446 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:25,399 Speaker 1: lot of different reasons to get people acclimated, to start 447 00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 1: to work them towards what the expectations are as far 448 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 1: as the level of conditioning, the knowledge of the scheme, 449 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 1: and then also getting to know some of these guys, 450 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 1: some of these guys that are in here on a 451 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 1: tryout basis, do they fit your personality of your culture? Okay? 452 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:42,719 Speaker 1: Are they the kind of people that you want to 453 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 1: bring in to when you're trying to flip the culture 454 00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 1: in an organization. So it's it's gonna be very valuable, 455 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 1: very valuable couple of days. We'll come back in a moment. 456 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:56,159 Speaker 1: The offseason schedule o T A open practice for media 457 00:24:56,240 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 1: has been announced.

And then Monday, June six, 497 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:24,119 Speaker 1: o t A number seven. Then there's the three day 498 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:28,200 Speaker 1: mandatory veteran mini camp the following week a Monday through Wednesday, 499 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 1: June through So there will be six open veteran practices 500 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:38,239 Speaker 1: for the media in May and June.

What I 503 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:47,640 Speaker 1: kind of have a little bit of an issue is 504 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:50,479 Speaker 1: is that, look, this is a great exposure for your 505 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:53,399 Speaker 1: football team and a great opportunity to help the local 506 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 1: media sell your franchise, I mean sell tickets, I mean interest. 507 00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 1: And you have ten o t A s and you 508 00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:00,200 Speaker 1: have three of them open to the media. I think 509 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 1: that that's not enough. I think it should be more. Uh, 510 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:05,880 Speaker 1: the more conversation that you get about your football team, 511 00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 1: the better off you're gonna be, I think. And uh, 512 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:11,359 Speaker 1: I mean you've generated a lot of positivity with the 513 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:13,880 Speaker 1: draft and free agency. I mean, so I mean, why 514 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:17,639 Speaker 1: not take advantage of the opportunity there. Um, I just 515 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,800 Speaker 1: think it's I think they're losing an opportunity there in 516 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 1: my opinion. Now, what's is there a balance of competitive 517 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,439 Speaker 1: advantage like not I don't want to give up too much, 518 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 1: or I mean there's some things that you put in 519 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:31,720 Speaker 1: now you want people to see, like well, I mean 520 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 1: I'm not saying open all ten of them up, even 521 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:37,439 Speaker 1: though that in the past there has been all ten open. 522 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 1: But I still think that there's a look you have 523 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 1: you have all looking when you're trying to put in 524 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 1: the meat and pents. I mean, JP, is there really 525 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:48,400 Speaker 1: that much secrecy and an O t A to where 526 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 1: you're developing this incredible scheme that's gonna be so different 527 00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:56,480 Speaker 1: than anybody's ever seen in the National Football League? Hell no, 528 00:28:56,800 --> 00:29:01,160 Speaker 1: come on, I mean it's it's they're our our secrets. 529 00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 1: But I mean you're not. You're not gonna have the 530 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 1: ability to be shrouded in secrecy in the all season 531 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:12,200 Speaker 1: and say, oh yeah, if we let one O t 532 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 1: A open, we're gonna let the cat out of the bag. 533 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 1: I mean, come on, it's football. This is not rocket science. 534 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:22,920 Speaker 1: And uh and I think that UM. And here's the 535 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 1: other thing. I think O t A s when they 536 00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:31,080 Speaker 1: are are open, it doesn't hurt anybody. It allows I think, 537 00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:36,160 Speaker 1: relationships to be built between UM and here. Here's one 538 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 1: thing I've always been a big believer in and I'll 539 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:39,960 Speaker 1: never forget this. When I first came in the National 540 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:44,640 Speaker 1: Football League, when you had drills that were being viewed 541 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 1: by members of the public, we had opened first time 542 00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:49,920 Speaker 1: I've experience I ever had was when I was in 543 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 1: New York and we had a training camp that was 544 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:54,960 Speaker 1: open to the public. This was before the Jaguars even 545 00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:57,720 Speaker 1: came to an existence, and you would back up a 546 00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,200 Speaker 1: one on one drill, whether it be passed for USh 547 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,720 Speaker 1: or run blocking or anything, and you would back it 548 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 1: up into a group of fans and then all of 549 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 1: a sudden, where did your intensity level go to? It 550 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 1: went higher because you knew people were watching. And I'm 551 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 1: not saying that the media is is you know, thousands 552 00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:19,960 Speaker 1: of people, but I mean it's look, the more people 553 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 1: or more eyeballs that are on your performance, I think 554 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:26,720 Speaker 1: the more I think intensity focus that sometimes players can get. 555 00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:29,200 Speaker 1: And uh so, I don't know. I mean it's a 556 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 1: I just think it's a great opportunity to have this 557 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 1: football team be at the conversation top of the conversation 558 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 1: across a lot of different media platforms, and um, I 559 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 1: think it should be more believe at that. I'm curious, Um, 560 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 1: you know how much will the quarterback? We heard him 561 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 1: Doug Peterson talking about Lawrence there with with rich eyes 562 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 1: and yesterday, you know how much of the full new 563 00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 1: playbook do you get to get pieces at a time 564 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 1: as the offseason goes. How do you build up that 565 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,520 Speaker 1: the base level of knowledge of this offense is as 566 00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:09,560 Speaker 1: it all depends on the player and how much he 567 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:12,440 Speaker 1: can handle. So I think that's a big part of it. 568 00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 1: How much experience does he have with the terminology that 569 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 1: you're using. Are you worrying about teaching terminology or you 570 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 1: taking up to the next level? You know, I mean 571 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:23,400 Speaker 1: when when you when I say the next level, you know, 572 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:27,800 Speaker 1: when you when you're in college or um, you're taking classes, 573 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:29,800 Speaker 1: you know, like one O, one, Okay, then the next 574 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 1: level is a two hundred level and then three level. 575 00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 1: So where is he add in the progression of understanding 576 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:40,239 Speaker 1: the schemes and the terminology? So how far can you 577 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:43,320 Speaker 1: take him or how deep can you take him into 578 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 1: the playbook based on what he's been able to learn already, 579 00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 1: And and that's always based on the individual. And I 580 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:54,960 Speaker 1: think Trevor is very smart from everything that I understand. 581 00:31:55,040 --> 00:32:00,160 Speaker 1: He has a great retention. Um, he's extremely dill gen 582 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 1: He works hard. He doesn't just work in the building, 583 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:06,280 Speaker 1: which is what some players do. They work only in 584 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 1: the building when they leave here, they don't study, and 585 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 1: that I think is a major hindrance to that position. Specifically, 586 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 1: you have to have somebody who is willing to put 587 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 1: the time in and the commitment to be able to 588 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 1: understand the playbook because the playbook is so complex for 589 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:24,960 Speaker 1: that position. Playing defensive line, JP. Look, it's like it's 590 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:29,560 Speaker 1: grade one seriously playing offensive line. I'll give Basselli a 591 00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:31,480 Speaker 1: little bit of a credit here. I mean he's fifth 592 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 1: grade level. Wow. Moving on up? Okay, um wide receivers, 593 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 1: running backs, I mean, you know, it's probably about the 594 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:40,960 Speaker 1: same thing, but then once you get to quarterback. I 595 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 1: mean that's like master study. I mean seriously when I 596 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 1: say that mean because not only do they have to 597 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 1: understand what everybody on the offense is doing protections, but 598 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 1: then also understanding defenses, progressions and everything that goes along 599 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 1: with running an offense. And so it's extremely complex and 600 00:32:57,600 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 1: it and it requires more than just punching a clock 601 00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:02,240 Speaker 1: when you walk in this building and doing your work. 602 00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:05,040 Speaker 1: You have to take that work home with you. And 603 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:07,640 Speaker 1: that's something that Trevor has been committed to from what 604 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 1: I understand, And that's what you have to have for 605 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:13,240 Speaker 1: somebody to play that position. You know what's going to happen. 606 00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:15,880 Speaker 1: It always happens this time of year. O t A S. 607 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 1: There's coverage of O T A S. Which is great. 608 00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 1: That's the whole point as you're out there seeing guys 609 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:27,160 Speaker 1: running around, but the um the overkill of you know, 610 00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:30,480 Speaker 1: this guy dropped this ball in an O t A 611 00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 1: practice And I don't think you're gonna cut the team 612 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 1: after watching some O t A practices, but there will 613 00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 1: be probably some coverage that does. That's just kind of 614 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 1: how this the nature is right now on social media 615 00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:43,520 Speaker 1: too well. I I think the biggest thing is is 616 00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 1: that you know with O t A s is that 617 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:50,440 Speaker 1: you're the camaraderie that you build, the chemistry that you build, 618 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,920 Speaker 1: the communication that you build, because communication is also something 619 00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:56,720 Speaker 1: that has to be built. It's just you can't assume 620 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:58,959 Speaker 1: that we're gonna be on the same page. JP. How 621 00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:01,720 Speaker 1: many years have we've been working together now, okay ten 622 00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:03,720 Speaker 1: years that we've been working together, But we still have 623 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:07,440 Speaker 1: a conversation before we go behind these microphones because that's 624 00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:11,360 Speaker 1: what we do. And and I think that the work 625 00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:15,840 Speaker 1: has to be put in with players, especially in the 626 00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 1: National Football League, because things are changing constantly. Rosters are changing, 627 00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:25,920 Speaker 1: systems are changing, the way that the communication works between coaches. 628 00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 1: I mean, all of that stuff is changing, and so 629 00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:30,200 Speaker 1: part part of the whole O T A s is 630 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:32,080 Speaker 1: not just you know, going out there and okay, playing 631 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:34,600 Speaker 1: quarterback and we're learning to operate the huddle, I mean 632 00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:38,879 Speaker 1: all of those things, but also the relationship that you're 633 00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 1: building with players to coach coach, the player, coach to coach, 634 00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 1: player to player, staff to coach. I mean, all of 635 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 1: these things are being built so that when you do 636 00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:53,080 Speaker 1: hit the regular season and things become extremely difficult and 637 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:57,279 Speaker 1: much higher paced, and the expectation levels get cranked up 638 00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 1: to the top of the ceiling, you can function and 639 00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:04,239 Speaker 1: you can operate within that environment that all of that 640 00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 1: stuff is built at this time of year. We're back 641 00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:10,760 Speaker 1: in a moment a look around the National Football League 642 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:15,160 Speaker 1: as we get into rookie Minicamp weekend for the Jaguars, 643 00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 1: and that will take a look if you're watching this program, 644 00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:21,200 Speaker 1: which is available on Jaguars dot Com on the Jags 645 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:24,120 Speaker 1: social channels, will take a look at the Football Performance 646 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:27,480 Speaker 1: Center construction. When we return, it's Jaguars Happy Hour on 647 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:38,360 Speaker 1: the Jaguars Digital Network. Welcome back Jaguars Happy Hour.

It's 694 00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:08,520 Speaker 1: a it's a long time coming, I will say that. 695 00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:13,400 Speaker 1: I just I just remember in when I when I 696 00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:16,840 Speaker 1: first came here with the expansion team, and it was 697 00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:19,000 Speaker 1: one of the brave souls and free agency to come 698 00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:23,720 Speaker 1: to Jacksonville at that time, was coming down the street 699 00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:27,239 Speaker 1: there and and looking and seeing all that vacant land going. Man, 700 00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:31,160 Speaker 1: this has got to be developed at some point. There's 701 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:33,919 Speaker 1: gonna be a lot of opportunity here and and here 702 00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:37,520 Speaker 1: we are a long time ago. It's a long time ago, man, 703 00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:40,160 Speaker 1: and uh really nothing's been done with that. And so 704 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:42,839 Speaker 1: I look forward to the to the day when when 705 00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:47,759 Speaker 1: they start doing something down there to bring a vibrant downtown. 706 00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:50,920 Speaker 1: Because you know, here's the thing that list that we 707 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:52,600 Speaker 1: went through at the very top of the top of 708 00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:56,640 Speaker 1: the show talking about destinations and places that you want 709 00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 1: to go to. What was the common theme of what 710 00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:02,880 Speaker 1: I was talking about with all these city entertainment, the 711 00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:08,640 Speaker 1: downtown attractions, things to do, things to keep you there. 712 00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:11,719 Speaker 1: That's the beauty of Nashville. It's one of the great 713 00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:15,160 Speaker 1: reasons why Kansas City is fantastic. Even though the stadium 714 00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:20,280 Speaker 1: is not that close to downtown. You wish it were. Uh, Indianapolis, 715 00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:24,279 Speaker 1: which with the stadium and then the downtown is is fantastic. 716 00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:28,319 Speaker 1: I mean, those are the places that become destinations where 717 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:32,319 Speaker 1: people want to come and see what you have. And 718 00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 1: so I hope that at some point that our city 719 00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:39,080 Speaker 1: can get to the point to where other people around 720 00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:41,960 Speaker 1: the league are are looking at the schedule when it 721 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:45,440 Speaker 1: comes out and goes, oh, we gotta go to Jacksonville. 722 00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:48,200 Speaker 1: Finally it's on our schedule. Let's go, you know what 723 00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:50,080 Speaker 1: I mean, Because I mean you got to give him 724 00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:53,240 Speaker 1: a reason besides just a ballgame. Yeah, and the beach, 725 00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:56,000 Speaker 1: which is great. Yeah, but yeah, but there's gonna be 726 00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:58,680 Speaker 1: some other stuff. Gotta give him some other stuff. That's right. 727 00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:01,120 Speaker 1: And and it's kind of trending that way of course 728 00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:03,239 Speaker 1: down here with everything going on around the stadium and 729 00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:05,640 Speaker 1: then on the other side of downtown, the Brooklyn area 730 00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:11,160 Speaker 1: has really come up lately and development we got ways 731 00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:13,680 Speaker 1: to go working on. At least they're they're starting the thing, 732 00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:16,120 Speaker 1: which is a good thing. Let's go around the National 733 00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:19,920 Speaker 1: Football League. We touched on this earlier. But Tom Brady 734 00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:22,799 Speaker 1: agreeing with Fox Sports apparently for when his career ends 735 00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:27,080 Speaker 1: ten years, three seventy five million dollars to do something 736 00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:31,560 Speaker 1: he's never done before. He's never announced the football game. No, 737 00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:34,640 Speaker 1: he hasn't. And uh, and look, there's been some guys 738 00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:38,600 Speaker 1: that have retired and and gone to the booth, so 739 00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:42,320 Speaker 1: to speak, that haven't done a great job. Joe Montana 740 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:45,760 Speaker 1: didn't do a great job. Ronnie Lott, and I love Ronnie, 741 00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:49,799 Speaker 1: didn't do a great job. Some guys have a knack 742 00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:55,759 Speaker 1: for Tray Akman fantastic, I mean fantastic, Baselly fantastic. I 743 00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:58,480 Speaker 1: mean there's guys that have a natural ability that they 744 00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:04,239 Speaker 1: can analyze, entertain, and inform. And you have to be 745 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:07,880 Speaker 1: able to be committed to understanding what it's all about. 746 00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:12,160 Speaker 1: And look, Tom Brady has been a great worker throughout 747 00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:15,600 Speaker 1: his career. That's why he is so great. And my 748 00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:19,200 Speaker 1: expectation for him is that he will work extremely hard 749 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:22,919 Speaker 1: to be good at it. I would be disappointed if 750 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:26,200 Speaker 1: if anything else happens, but it doesn't mean he's gonna 751 00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:29,800 Speaker 1: be great. But my expectation is that he will find 752 00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:32,400 Speaker 1: a way to be great. And I look forward to 753 00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:35,920 Speaker 1: hearing him. Uh, Tony Romo is a guy that works 754 00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:38,200 Speaker 1: very hard at it, and I think he's pretty good. 755 00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:41,680 Speaker 1: Sometimes he's annoying because he keeps guessing like that's part 756 00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:44,040 Speaker 1: of what he's supposed to do. It's not always about guessing, 757 00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:47,480 Speaker 1: it's about informing and uh. But there's guys that are 758 00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:50,400 Speaker 1: really good that that did what what they've done for 759 00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:52,520 Speaker 1: a long period of time in the National Football League 760 00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:57,399 Speaker 1: and have become great, great analysts, commentators, whatever you want 761 00:41:57,400 --> 00:42:01,759 Speaker 1: to consider that Joe, you you'll remember this, that was 762 00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:04,479 Speaker 1: Joe Nameth as an analyst. Did he do like Monday 763 00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:08,640 Speaker 1: Night Football foot very good? Didn't last long? Yeah, Joe 764 00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:13,120 Speaker 1: was not good at all. I don't remember him doing 765 00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:16,560 Speaker 1: I thought Nameth did Monday Night for a minute, but 766 00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:20,640 Speaker 1: not long. No, it didn't last because that guy's got 767 00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:24,360 Speaker 1: personality obviously, but it just didn't work in that So 768 00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:26,239 Speaker 1: I mean, look, I mean it's just because you have 769 00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:31,080 Speaker 1: personality doesn't make you good at doing a broadcasters duties. 770 00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:34,640 Speaker 1: I mean, that's there requires certain things. There's some guys 771 00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 1: that are great in studio and there are some guys 772 00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:43,319 Speaker 1: that in a in a game setting are fantastic. So 773 00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:45,680 Speaker 1: I mean, everybody has a talent, I think, and you've 774 00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:48,160 Speaker 1: got to find a way to bring that talent to 775 00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:50,960 Speaker 1: the forefront and also to find out what that talent 776 00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:53,440 Speaker 1: is to be able to make sure that it is 777 00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:57,560 Speaker 1: it is highlighted to some extent. Everybody's chasing the the 778 00:42:57,640 --> 00:43:00,279 Speaker 1: John Madden. It doesn't get better than that. It will 779 00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:03,239 Speaker 1: never get well. And look, I'll say this about John standard. 780 00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:06,239 Speaker 1: John Well, He's John was a gold standard. And and 781 00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:09,040 Speaker 1: for guys that played the game, I mean John was awesome. 782 00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:13,120 Speaker 1: And not only did John give you great analysis, but 783 00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:17,279 Speaker 1: he entertained with the way his excitement and in the 784 00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:20,080 Speaker 1: way that he presented the game was incredible. His big 785 00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:23,360 Speaker 1: picture analysis was was I mean right up there. And 786 00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:25,880 Speaker 1: I think today I think Chris collins Worth does an 787 00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:30,360 Speaker 1: amazing job at big picture analysis. But there were times 788 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:33,600 Speaker 1: as far as game analysis that John Madden was off, 789 00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:36,880 Speaker 1: I mean off. I mean sometimes I'd be watching and 790 00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:38,759 Speaker 1: I sit there and listen to what he was the 791 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:40,759 Speaker 1: play that he was breaking down. I was going, John, 792 00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:45,160 Speaker 1: that's not what happened. But he was so good and 793 00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:49,080 Speaker 1: entertaining for the most part, and his big picture analysis 794 00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:53,880 Speaker 1: was awesome. And J. P. Boom I mean those things 795 00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:56,360 Speaker 1: that he did as part of his analysis in the 796 00:43:56,520 --> 00:43:59,000 Speaker 1: in the Tell Straighter, I mean he was a maestro. 797 00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:02,319 Speaker 1: He could relate to anybody football fan or not and 798 00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:08,160 Speaker 1: get them to the TV on that to talk. Some 799 00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:11,440 Speaker 1: early announced games by the league. The official announcement tonight 800 00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 1: at eight o'clock Eastern time of the schedule.

I was talking about the schedule, 816 00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:09,919 Speaker 1: about what you look for in the schedule. Okay, are 817 00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:13,279 Speaker 1: we gonna be home? Are we gonna be away on 818 00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:18,040 Speaker 1: Christmas weekend? Right? Yeah, that's right, because it was a 819 00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:22,160 Speaker 1: couple of years ago, or was it seventeen, went to 820 00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:24,920 Speaker 1: the West coast like Christmas eve, right, played in San Francisco, 821 00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:28,319 Speaker 1: got smoked, and then I had to come back with 822 00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:32,080 Speaker 1: the Santa Claus. The The old rule of thumb is 823 00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:37,040 Speaker 1: that the NFL knows no holidays. It doesn't. I mean, 824 00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:40,719 Speaker 1: it's it's the sport is part. No Sundays and Mondays 825 00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:44,920 Speaker 1: and Thursdays and Saturdays late in the season. That's it. 826 00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:51,400 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter if it's Christmas, Hanukkah, Thanksgiving, New Year's, 827 00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:56,759 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. There's no holidays in football. There's no 828 00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:59,959 Speaker 1: crying in football either. There's no holidays. No, there's crying 829 00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:04,680 Speaker 1: in football. The Bears said goodbye to Nick Foles last week. 830 00:46:05,200 --> 00:46:08,920 Speaker 1: They say hello to Jacksonville native and Bartram Trail product 831 00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:12,120 Speaker 1: Nathan Peterman for a one year deal. Justin fields. Trevor 832 00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:16,080 Speaker 1: simigon er there Peterman and his career, unfortunately, three touchdowns 833 00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:18,880 Speaker 1: and twelve interceptions with his time with the Bills and 834 00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:21,000 Speaker 1: the Raiders. But good for him. Jacksonville guy is still 835 00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:25,200 Speaker 1: getting a shot. Yeah, good for him. Now the speculation 836 00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:28,759 Speaker 1: has been out there a little bit. Could Nick Foles 837 00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:34,799 Speaker 1: come to Jacksonville because of Peterson? I don't see it. 838 00:46:36,200 --> 00:46:38,879 Speaker 1: I don't either. I don't see it. No, I don't 839 00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:42,160 Speaker 1: see it either. I don't see it. So that ship 840 00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:45,000 Speaker 1: has sailed, I believe, maybe maybe not. I mean, I'm 841 00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:46,680 Speaker 1: not I don't know for sure. I haven't talked to 842 00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:49,399 Speaker 1: Doug Peterson about it either. I don't think that that's 843 00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:52,319 Speaker 1: gonna happen. But then then again, what do I know. 844 00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:57,080 Speaker 1: Adam Schefter of ESPN reporting just a few minutes ago 845 00:46:57,239 --> 00:47:01,640 Speaker 1: that Rapaho Sheriff in the Colorado the Arepo County, They're 846 00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:05,520 Speaker 1: announced that Broncos wide receiver Jerry Judy is being held 847 00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:09,000 Speaker 1: at the county jail on charges of second degree criminal 848 00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:13,799 Speaker 1: tampering with a domestic violence enhancer, a misdemeanor. He's on 849 00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:18,160 Speaker 1: a no bond hold. He's innocent until proven guilty, so 850 00:47:18,520 --> 00:47:20,960 Speaker 1: you might have to stay in until he sees a 851 00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:24,320 Speaker 1: judge whenever that is. Yeah, that's that's breaking this afternoon. 852 00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:29,080 Speaker 1: Innocent until proven guilty, but not a good thing if 853 00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:35,040 Speaker 1: you know. Look, Denver Broncos are good young receiver, new quarterback, 854 00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:41,719 Speaker 1: new coach, new general manager, and uh, that's not the 855 00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:45,120 Speaker 1: kind of momentum builder that you want to have happening 856 00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:48,880 Speaker 1: in May. So it's been a busy off season for 857 00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:52,839 Speaker 1: the Denver Broncos, new head coach, new quarterback, this going on, 858 00:47:53,120 --> 00:47:55,799 Speaker 1: I mean, it's a lot happening. It was pretty interesting 859 00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:58,000 Speaker 1: this week and that I don't know if you did, 860 00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:00,880 Speaker 1: you have to see the some of Pink Anning's comments 861 00:48:00,920 --> 00:48:03,799 Speaker 1: and John Elway's comments because there's so much going on 862 00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:08,239 Speaker 1: with the Denver Broncos, and that the first of all, 863 00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:15,000 Speaker 1: the Russell Wilson trade, the change in coaching staffs, got 864 00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:20,319 Speaker 1: general manager John Elway, who has essentially been an advisory 865 00:48:20,440 --> 00:48:22,440 Speaker 1: role to the general manager there because he's the one 866 00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:27,160 Speaker 1: who named that general manager recently. And then Peyton Manning is, uh, 867 00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:30,719 Speaker 1: could Peyton Manning, could John Elway, either one of these 868 00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:33,680 Speaker 1: two guys be involved in the new ownership because the 869 00:48:33,719 --> 00:48:38,040 Speaker 1: team is for sale, the reported amount of money is 870 00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:41,759 Speaker 1: an excess of five billion of what that could sell for. 871 00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:45,160 Speaker 1: One of the Walton heirs is one of the prospective 872 00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:49,120 Speaker 1: buyers and was just recently in Denver touring the facility. 873 00:48:49,440 --> 00:48:56,160 Speaker 1: And uh, if he does buy the Denver Broncos, and 874 00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:59,360 Speaker 1: I don't remember his first name, that Walton, but he 875 00:48:59,360 --> 00:49:04,520 Speaker 1: would be UM the NFL's richest owners, surpassing David Tepper. 876 00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:07,400 Speaker 1: Wow for net worth, I want to say that the 877 00:49:07,480 --> 00:49:11,520 Speaker 1: Walton air is worth like a hundred fifty plus billion, 878 00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:16,120 Speaker 1: hundred seventy plus billion dollars something like that JP, which 879 00:49:16,320 --> 00:49:20,520 Speaker 1: um is a large amount of money. But on top 880 00:49:20,600 --> 00:49:24,920 Speaker 1: of that JP, the NFL ownership rules are so strict. 881 00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:27,400 Speaker 1: It's not like they can have a lot of different 882 00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:30,759 Speaker 1: groups buying it because they have to be able to 883 00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:34,320 Speaker 1: sustain or to satisfy some of the requirements for ownership 884 00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:37,360 Speaker 1: in the National Football League, which are very stringent and 885 00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:40,200 Speaker 1: are becoming a little bit more difficult to attain because 886 00:49:40,239 --> 00:49:44,400 Speaker 1: of the value the franchises have become so large. You 887 00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:46,920 Speaker 1: have it. That's our look around the National Football League 888 00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:50,120 Speaker 1: or thanks to Joe Fortunado, Brent Reaverer Logs.
