See? Age is Thursday, Thursday night, 10 00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:45,800 Speaker 1: early Friday morning. Seems like forever ago. However, you wake 11 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:48,400 Speaker 1: up the morning with Jaguars are four and nine? Uh 12 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 1: and so plenty to talk about. First of all, um, 13 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:54,760 Speaker 1: how is your weekend? Which we don't We normally stay 14 00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:56,360 Speaker 1: in here, we'd normally just get right at because we 15 00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:58,600 Speaker 1: were together all weekend, but not this weekend. It was 16 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 1: a couple of days off. It was great. Yeah, a 17 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 1: break from John. Yeah. Christmas shopping. Oh, now we understand 18 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:11,680 Speaker 1: the reason for your gloom this morning. It's it's Christmas shopping. 19 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 1: It's bad out there, Brian, It's bad. Would it be 20 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 1: as bad if if you just went out and walked 21 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:20,320 Speaker 1: around and didn't spend a time a right there you go, 22 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 1: that would be fun. It's really not bad out there, 23 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 1: it's bad in here. And found in the back pocket. 24 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 1: I was all over the app and they're just blow 25 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 1: after blow. It was, yeah, it was, it was, And 26 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:37,200 Speaker 1: it's not done yet. It's it's never done. It's just 27 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 1: you know, you know, you think you've got in your 28 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 1: last bank of America, you know, and then all of 29 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 1: a sudden, like the twenty second, I'm going back out 30 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 1: for a few things. Okay, so it's gonna be a 31 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 1: long line. I haven't even started yet. Good luck. All right, 32 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 1: Oh you went to New York? How was your weekend? 33 00:01:57,800 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 1: I did. It was a lot of fun. It was 34 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 1: very cold. I'm thankful to live in Florida. You've heard 35 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 1: your whole life right, Yes, And then I visited the 36 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 1: place and they say, wow, it all makes sense now, 37 00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 1: well I am here. Can we make some sense of 38 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 1: this football team? We can attempt to. I thought at 39 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,639 Speaker 1: the end of the night was very logical. A matter 40 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: of fact, I thought it was going to be a 41 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 1: bad night for the Jags going in. I worry about it. 42 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 1: Anything you'd be that bad. But the circumstances I thought 43 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 1: piled up to make that happen. We're gonna get there 44 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: in big things first though. Um, and remember we have 45 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:34,799 Speaker 1: to do this. Who's your Exfinity player of the game. 46 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 1: I don't shoot the messenger on this. Uh, this is 47 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 1: a sponsored segment. Um. We've said that a lot this year, 48 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 1: which I guess happens to before nine. Ronnie Harrison his 49 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 1: first career pick. He's had two nice weeks in a row. 50 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: Petie Westbrook showed up again, Cody Kessler had a high 51 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: completion percentage. Or maybe there's someone else that's your Exfinity 52 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: player of the game. It's our Drive Time Bowl on 53 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 1: Twitter every Monday morning, and of course it will go 54 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,680 Speaker 1: through the day and the Happy Hour will be included 55 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:04,919 Speaker 1: this afternoon. All right, let's get the big things so 56 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 1: we can talk about the game. All right, Big thing 57 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 1: one is embarrassing. Trying to find something positive from this 58 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 1: game is pretty difficult. When you're looking at the game. 59 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:15,679 Speaker 1: It guarantees a losing season. The best you can do 60 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 1: now is get seven wins. Sean Gibson in the locker 61 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 1: room after the game called the loss demoralizing, and he 62 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 1: said he wouldn't believe anyone watched past halftime. Jalen Ramsey said, 63 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: it's just sad. Is it embarrassing to be on national 64 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 1: teament how this happened? So, like I said, it's sad. Honestly, 65 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 1: are you still locked in? I mean yeah, I mean 66 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 1: I had limited opportunities and they ran the bar. They 67 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 1: ran down episode of the game. It did scream. You know, 68 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: we didn't personally, didn't have a lot of opps um 69 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 1: to try to make a hand change of play. I mean, 70 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: it is what it is. I go out there, I'll 71 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: do what I can do. That's all I can do 72 00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 1: is to be honest on So we said we started 73 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 1: on this right off the top of the show. The 74 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 1: circumstances weren't good. You have a team that was fighting 75 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 1: for the playoffs still um and a team that was 76 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 1: not and that rarely works out on the road, short week. 77 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 1: All those things factor in. This didn't have the the 78 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 1: odds in the Jaguars favor to begin with. I think 79 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 1: the thing that they caught most people off guard and 80 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: talking to folks over the weekend is how poorly the 81 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 1: defense play um coming off of a performance that we 82 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: said was maybe one of the best enfranchise history against 83 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:40,799 Speaker 1: the Colts. Well, it was again circumstances pilot and saying 84 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 1: these things is in no way to say that that 85 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,479 Speaker 1: what happened on Thursday nights should have happened or there 86 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 1: wasn't embarrassing that it wasn't you know, awful, But on 87 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 1: the road road team Thursday night out of the playoffs. 88 00:04:56,240 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 1: Also coming off that game with the Colts, uh, it 89 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 1: just felt to me like it was going to be 90 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: a repeat of two thousand and sixteen when they went 91 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 1: up there and we're down what was it thirty two? 92 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 1: I mean it was it was twenty eight to nothing 93 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: at the happen right, it was equally bad. Um, Now 94 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 1: you can say, well the defense played well one week 95 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,720 Speaker 1: and didn't play well the next. It also matches up 96 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 1: much better against the Colts than it does the Titans 97 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 1: in terms of going back to the beginning of last year, 98 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 1: it's always been a better defense against the past, and 99 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 1: it has been against the run. So it's not again 100 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 1: something like what happened on Thursday is always shocking and 101 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:39,919 Speaker 1: embarrassing and all those things, But if it was going 102 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: to happen, it was more likely to happen against the Titans. 103 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: And the Colts and say, well they they were down 104 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,119 Speaker 1: twenty nine nothing two weeks ago and into or whatever. 105 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: But that was more of an outlier, and that was 106 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 1: more some misassignments. They got run over on Thursday. And 107 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 1: if if this team is going to lose on defense, 108 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 1: it's gonna be against a team that run over that 109 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 1: meaning Dallas, same sort of way where they can really 110 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 1: run the ball. So I wasn't surprised by it. Um 111 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,720 Speaker 1: and perhaps that's not good. Here's someone equipped at me 112 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 1: in line at publics on Friday. We couldn't score. The 113 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 1: Jaguars couldn't score from the Titans one yard line, but 114 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,040 Speaker 1: they could. You know what comes up with that? And 115 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:22,600 Speaker 1: if if you go look at the tape, and I'm 116 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: sure people don't really want to look. The minute that 117 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:27,720 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry bounced at the line of scrimmage, I looked 118 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 1: and saw a huge space to the outside, no one 119 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: there but a j boy, And sure enough he bounced 120 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 1: it outside. And look he's he when he gets ahead 121 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,480 Speaker 1: of steam running downhill, No one he's going to get 122 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 1: in that guy's way. You gotta go low. They go low. 123 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 1: But that really wasn't the touchdown that got me. It 124 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: was the one right up the middle in the third 125 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 1: quarter where you would have thought Jaguars would have been 126 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 1: able to hold onto that. Those runs make it look 127 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,280 Speaker 1: like they quipped, I said, make it look like After 128 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,160 Speaker 1: the game, every in the locker room said, no quit, 129 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: no quit, no quit. There certainly was a lack of 130 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:07,840 Speaker 1: enthusiasm for taking on that big body. That's December with 131 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 1: losing record. Um, that is that embodies what Thursday night was. 132 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 1: A team that is running out the string, that can 133 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 1: get embarrassing. You've got three games left. Um, I don't 134 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 1: expect the Redskins to be able to embarrass them, but 135 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 1: the other two teams can do it to you. Well. 136 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 1: Usually what you have when teams are out of it 137 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 1: is they sort of go in surges and fades. And 138 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: you had a surge against the Colts, you had a 139 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 1: huge fade against Tennessee. Um, they usually wind up playing 140 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: better at home teams are out of it than on 141 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: the road. And again, Clays Campbell is not one to 142 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 1: make excuses, But when you've been around the league for 143 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 1: ten eleven years like Clays has, you know what Thursday 144 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 1: night is, and you know what it is on the road, 145 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 1: and uh, there. They are usually outlier games. You do 146 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 1: see blowouts. None of this is meant to make an 147 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 1: an excuse, but it happens in professional football, especially when 148 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 1: teams are out of it. Is that quitting, is that effort? 149 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. I did. I did 150 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 1: expect over the course of say six games, they were 151 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 1: looking at where they were going to be out of it, right, 152 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 1: because it basically ended with a loss in Buffalo and 153 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: there were six games left, you figured out of those 154 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: six there's probably gonna be two real stinkers where it 155 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 1: looks bad, bad bad. Thursday was one, and that doesn't 156 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:36,679 Speaker 1: address the overarching issue of why are you here? Is 157 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 1: this good enough? And all that? But I expect probably 158 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:40,680 Speaker 1: one of those last two games will be the same. 159 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:42,720 Speaker 1: They get a Red Kids team on Sunday. That's gonna 160 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 1: start Josh Jackson. I'm Sarry Johnson at whoever, the guy who, 161 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 1: by the way, hasn't started since Wayne Weaver Road did 162 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 1: this team right? Jack de Real was the head coach 163 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,840 Speaker 1: the last time that Josh Johnson started a football game 164 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 1: that he was playing in a charity basketball tournament last 165 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 1: week when the Redskins called um so you think all right, Well, 166 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 1: you can go and handle that um. But the question 167 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 1: remains how you can score, because that's the part of it. 168 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:11,080 Speaker 1: The last what ten quarters, they have one touchdown, two 169 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 1: field goals in the safety. Yeah, and and since they 170 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 1: made the change, they have been worse on offense than 171 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 1: they were before. Frankly, they've had one touchdown since they 172 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 1: made the change, and the touchdown didn't matter. Well's be honest, 173 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 1: we knew that the change was going to do nothing. 174 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: It was window dressing, right. You couldn't expect Cody Kessler 175 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,839 Speaker 1: and Scott Milanovitch to go in and deal with all 176 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:36,199 Speaker 1: the injuries. I'll go back wide receiver, tight end, left tackle, right, 177 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:41,559 Speaker 1: left guard, center, running back. It's just think we're gonna change. 178 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 1: But you expected to be worse and it's been. I 179 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:48,839 Speaker 1: didn't expect you to be better. They've had basically in 180 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,439 Speaker 1: at any points. The day they were down thirty two 181 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 1: where they scored and and uh, two of the eight 182 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,440 Speaker 1: points came on a safety. So you've had two field goals. 183 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: Not good enough, not good enough, which brings us, by 184 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 1: the way, to another part of where December goes for 185 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 1: teams like this. Yes, the big thing too, is rumors. 186 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 1: We're talking about the CBS Sports article that report that 187 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 1: Tom Coughlin to me that the next head coach of 188 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars. Now, we're not sure that this is 189 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,240 Speaker 1: speculation or not, or if this is actually being talked about, 190 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 1: but one thing is for sure, these speculations aren't going 191 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 1: to end. This is just the start of it. It's 192 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,320 Speaker 1: something we're gonna be talking about for months, and there'll 193 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 1: be more and more speculations like this to come, for sure. 194 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:32,559 Speaker 1: Well and more importantly, UM, this is what you deal with. 195 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 1: Everyone starts talking about are your trading Jalen Ramsey? Are 196 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,960 Speaker 1: you firing Doug Moroned? Is Tom Coughlin making a play? 197 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: I was not surprised at all to see this headline 198 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:46,320 Speaker 1: pop up yesterday, Not at all. And buckle up. There 199 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 1: will be more of those things and the hard part 200 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 1: will be for people to filter through them. And see, 201 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 1: you said we'll be talking about it for months. We 202 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 1: will be talking about this for a month. This is 203 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,559 Speaker 1: going to be this will be uh decided, will be 204 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:01,560 Speaker 1: done quickly, end of the sea and over with well. 205 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,319 Speaker 1: And I have no idea if tomall be the head 206 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 1: coach or not it um, but this article itself shouldn't 207 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:14,319 Speaker 1: even be looked at as a piece of journalism, and 208 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,439 Speaker 1: I don't think Jason wrote it that way. It was 209 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:21,599 Speaker 1: I forget what the phrasing was, but speculation growing or 210 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 1: growing that he could Yeah, but the words used, this 211 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 1: wasn't even a story. The way it was written didn't 212 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 1: indicate that he had talked to anybody. It was basically 213 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 1: growing feeling. I mean, he's sitting in the press box 214 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 1: wherever he is yesterday and they're talking about could Coughlan 215 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,599 Speaker 1: con do this? Right? That's that's essentially what happens, and 216 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:46,199 Speaker 1: that's what I get that you get it. Um, there's 217 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 1: not much. There's not a whole lot of credence to 218 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 1: this particular report because the bottom line and all this 219 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 1: is there's only one guy who has any idea what's 220 00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 1: going to happen. Even as far as the Blake stuff, 221 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 1: which again was reported last week that Blake Boards won't 222 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,719 Speaker 1: be back. Um, I don't think he'll be back. I've 223 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 1: been saying since he got bench that he wouldn't be back. 224 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 1: But you don't know any of these things because the 225 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:16,079 Speaker 1: reality is you don't know what SHOT's gonna decide about, 226 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,599 Speaker 1: who's making the calls, and that goes down to and 227 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 1: Tom would be the first one to tell you, Look, 228 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 1: until Shod says this is what's happening, these are who's 229 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:28,959 Speaker 1: making the decisions. All the decisions below that can't get 230 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 1: made either. So the people here in charge can say 231 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,319 Speaker 1: here's what I would do. But until Shod says this 232 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:37,640 Speaker 1: is how we're going forward, maybe he's already done that. 233 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 1: That's not out yet, is my point. Again. Asked this 234 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:45,839 Speaker 1: question by a neighbor yesterday, would they consider making a 235 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:48,679 Speaker 1: coaching change a year after Doug Moron comes in and 236 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 1: takes the team to the AFC Championship Game? Would they? 237 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 1: And the only thing he says, well, yeah, sure, I 238 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 1: mean if if you if they would lose out, if 239 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 1: they lose these final three and have a four game 240 00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 1: losing streak, if they win one of their starting three 241 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:04,960 Speaker 1: and one and then finishing four and twelve, sure they 242 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:08,560 Speaker 1: would consider anything at this point. That's what happens when 243 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,080 Speaker 1: you have a season like this. Everything gets considered, Everything 244 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 1: becomes a possibility. Absolutely everything. Someone said, you know, would 245 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 1: Tom do that? Could Tom do it? Would he coach? Yeah? 246 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,559 Speaker 1: Could he coach? Yeah? No, problem doesn't mean he's going 247 00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:23,559 Speaker 1: to Uh So, when you see things like this and 248 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 1: this is this is a journalism lesson. When you and 249 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 1: I first started in this, this didn't exist, the Internet, 250 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 1: Twitter didn't exist. It was printed in the paper, it 251 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 1: was set on TV or on the radio, and there 252 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 1: was accountability for it because John Osian reported or Brian 253 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 1: Sexton reported. Um. Now today and this started almost remember 254 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:47,679 Speaker 1: when Pete Priscoe went to CBS and all of a 255 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 1: sudden his his stories became a combination between a story 256 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 1: and a column. There was opinion based in that. Now 257 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,960 Speaker 1: today it's almost you just throw it against the wall 258 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 1: and see what sticks. And that's what that was. It's 259 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 1: not journalism in any way. And so a journalism rule 260 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 1: that you learn, whether you're at the University of Florida 261 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:10,719 Speaker 1: or the University of campus is number one, consider the source. Right, 262 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 1: there are no sources cited in there at all. Just 263 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:16,719 Speaker 1: understand that from the beginning. Am I saying it's not 264 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 1: gonna happen, No, because I don't know, but that's it's 265 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 1: my headlines down. Very little in this in terms of 266 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 1: speculation will matter until Shad says, until there's a release. 267 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:36,560 Speaker 1: This is what the hierarchy is going to be The 268 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 1: Bortle stuff makes perfect sense, But so much of what's 269 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 1: being reported now is Okay, I see this, this is 270 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 1: what's happened in other organizations. Here's what probably will happen. 271 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 1: But what did we say about it? In fact, I 272 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 1: said to you after they benched him, it feels as 273 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 1: if it feels as if he's done in Jacksonville. I 274 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 1: didn't say he's done. He won't be back. I don't know. 275 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 1: I've asked some people will he be back. I've gotten 276 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:03,280 Speaker 1: no reply that tells me he won't. I don't think 277 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 1: he will. Like you, it feels as if his fear 278 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 1: has done yet. But I can't go on and type 279 00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 1: up a story. I can do on my own personal 280 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 1: Twitter right, do the same thing that Jason lockin Ford 281 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 1: the Jaguars are talking about, like Bordle's future right, really 282 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 1: wide broad terms speculation is they'll let him go and 283 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 1: designate him a post you and all that. I could 284 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 1: look at the cap I could, I could come to 285 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 1: conclusions and draw them. That's where we all are these days. 286 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 1: And the sad part is is that we're giving credence 287 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 1: to it because we're still talking about it. They'll do 288 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,520 Speaker 1: it on sports radio all day. Twitter will be all day. 289 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 1: This thing can take on a fire of its own, 290 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 1: one of those cave fires that doesn't burn out for months, 291 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 1: and so many of them. Remember is you can talk 292 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 1: about it, and even people in the building can have 293 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 1: opinions on what they think will happen. But the way 294 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 1: these things usually work is you talk about it. You 295 00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 1: talk about it on on a team plane. The high 296 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 1: are absolutely yeah, maybe this until there's a meeting after 297 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 1: the season, and then there are meetings for two weeks 298 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 1: after the season where they say, Okay, here's what we're 299 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,040 Speaker 1: gonna do. This is what we're gonna do. Okay, this 300 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 1: is the final thing. There are still decisions to be made. 301 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 1: Very little will be set in stone until the final 302 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 1: gun goes off in Houston. Gun all right, big thing 303 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 1: three is January. So with all those rumors that we 304 00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 1: just addressed, we know one thing is for sure and 305 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 1: that is change is coming. So therefore you have to 306 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 1: take advantage of these last three games being with this 307 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:36,720 Speaker 1: team that we all know. Khlias Campbell addressed that in 308 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 1: the locker room after the game, trying to stick together 309 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 1: and keep fighting. You know, we got you know this, 310 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 1: this family, the rebuilt the show has three games left together, 311 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 1: right and three games left to go all and I 312 00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 1: never year it's gonna be changed. So we're never gonna 313 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 1: get anywhere, you know, but we have the final way 314 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,200 Speaker 1: keep fighting and save together, and we're going on for 315 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 1: one another, just just for respect, just for the love 316 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:07,360 Speaker 1: of the Dame. I hate to say that I'm disinterested 317 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:10,680 Speaker 1: in the final three games. Um, I'm not all that 318 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 1: interested in in them. I'm more interested in how this 319 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:16,879 Speaker 1: plays out. Um. I found myself yesterday. Here's how I 320 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 1: knew that I was slightly disinterested. I'm looking at the 321 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,680 Speaker 1: Raiders and the Niners and the Jets all winning and thinking, 322 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,919 Speaker 1: how does that impact the Jaguars draft position? Right? Um? 323 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:28,680 Speaker 1: You know when they beat the Colts, they you know, 324 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:30,639 Speaker 1: they look like they will be on the cusp at 325 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 1: the top ten. Now, you know, sitting at four and nine, 326 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,159 Speaker 1: which is only one game off of the three games 327 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 1: that the Jets, the Cardinals. I'm sorry, the Cardinals, the 328 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 1: Niners and the Raiders have could they could they get 329 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:46,520 Speaker 1: to the top three? I don't think so. Um, I 330 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:50,520 Speaker 1: don't think a draft position already. Well, it's I don't 331 00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 1: know if it's bad, it just is well, and you know, 332 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 1: take on a different tone. Now, the the energy whatever, 333 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: um the right word is of the Thursday night game 334 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:08,159 Speaker 1: is over. You thought maybe after the Colts, you know, 335 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,639 Speaker 1: I thought Thursday would be bad. But the only thing 336 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:13,680 Speaker 1: that gave you hope that it might not be was, well, 337 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 1: maybe this defense is it is just gonna take these 338 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 1: last five games and show this is what we are. 339 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 1: But I didn't have so they said they were going 340 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:25,160 Speaker 1: to well I said that was their hope to keep 341 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:29,240 Speaker 1: them all together. Um, so now you're looking at you're 342 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 1: playing a Redskins team that's out of it. Uh, You're 343 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 1: you're playing a Texans team or it looks like things 344 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 1: are going to be decided. There's a good chance will 345 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 1: be decided. So there's just not much left and you're 346 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 1: you're into the holidays. I'll be wearing a Santa Had 347 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 1: at some point. So it's it's, uh, you've reached that 348 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 1: point where all the fans focused will continue to be 349 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 1: looking to what's going to be said after the season. 350 00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 1: You wonder if Shot I'll say something before the end 351 00:18:58,080 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 1: of the season like he did with gust a couple 352 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 1: of years act. Uh. If he decides what the direction 353 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 1: is going to be early, he may do it early. 354 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:12,920 Speaker 1: But that's the that's the key point now because that's 355 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:14,680 Speaker 1: when you can start going forward. And it's up to 356 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 1: him on when he decides to do that. That'll do 357 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 1: it for big things. Let's pause. When we come back, 358 00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:24,160 Speaker 1: we'll have some highlights from last Thursday's action plus ozone 359 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 1: snapshots and headlines.

That's straight up nine o'clock Eastern time. 386 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 1: Appreciate you being with us on a Monday. And we've 387 00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:25,160 Speaker 1: got a couple of highlights from last Thursday's games. A couple, Yeah, 388 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 1: just a few. I think that's all we need to see. 389 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:28,879 Speaker 1: Surprise when I sent you the email, your stings that 390 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 1: do we want to do highlights? You're like, yeah, we 391 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 1: gotta call highlights. Okay, a few. All right, let's go 392 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:36,479 Speaker 1: to the middle of the first quarter. And someone who 393 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 1: has impressed us big time the past two games is 394 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 1: Ronnie Harrison making a huge play in the first quarter 395 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 1: when the game was still undecided. Yeah, and that's obviously 396 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 1: the wrong one. Um, as Max find the one from Ronnie. 397 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 1: I'll say that talking to the players in the locker 398 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 1: room about Ronnie Harrison, UM is to fully appreciate just 399 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 1: how good they think he's going to be because those 400 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 1: guys have a lot of confidence in him. They they've 401 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:08,880 Speaker 1: seen it from him since he arrived. They talked about 402 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:10,679 Speaker 1: a guy who kind of felt like he belonged from 403 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 1: the beginning, but all of a sudden now the swagger 404 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,440 Speaker 1: that he's playing with fat there, the understanding of what 405 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:18,440 Speaker 1: he's doing tells you a lot about him. Yeah. He 406 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:25,960 Speaker 1: he's showing, uh why rookies ascend in their second year 407 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:27,919 Speaker 1: because he's playing very well as he comes in now, 408 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 1: but he's also still making rookie mistakes. He got beat 409 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:34,679 Speaker 1: where he had to grab for the inference the other night, 410 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 1: and he had the penalty against the Colts. So you 411 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 1: can see mistakes that he's making. That are the things 412 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 1: that always concerned coaches about rookies. And I'm not saying 413 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:48,640 Speaker 1: that as a Chris hasn't him. It's what rookies go through. 414 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:52,960 Speaker 1: But far more importantly than that than that, is that 415 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:57,159 Speaker 1: you're seeing an incredible amount of athletic ability to go 416 00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 1: along with size. That all the things that you look 417 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:02,399 Speaker 1: forward to make you think a guy can be a 418 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:05,120 Speaker 1: big time player, you're seeing in him and the things 419 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 1: that we're talking about, and that when Dougs asked about 420 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 1: him this week, he'll praise him, and then he'll also 421 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 1: talk about some of the mistakes that he's made. All 422 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 1: those mistakes, so far from what I'm saying, are things 423 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 1: that can easily go away once he gets that second 424 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:20,920 Speaker 1: year veteran feel for the game. You don't worry about 425 00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 1: those things. He looks like he's a real fine well 426 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 1: and you feel good about it. Because Barrick Church wasn't 427 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:28,160 Speaker 1: even dressed the other nine. Clearly he has a six 428 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 1: million dollar cap figure next year. He won't see that. 429 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 1: It allows the Jaguars to clear off a little bit 430 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:34,119 Speaker 1: of cap space there, but they have a guy that 431 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:37,160 Speaker 1: looks like a long term solution there, third round pick. 432 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 1: If you go up all right, let's go to the 433 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,040 Speaker 1: second quarter, you're in seven place from the seven yard 434 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:44,399 Speaker 1: line and the red zone. You came up with no points. 435 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 1: Then obviously we know what happened to play after that 436 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:50,680 Speaker 1: Derrick Kenny yard touchdown run. It was the turning point 437 00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 1: of the game and they're handed for not a chat 438 00:23:57,040 --> 00:24:03,120 Speaker 1: by a Titan defense Rashaan Fenders the first got through 439 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:05,280 Speaker 1: and got him, and that I mean just standing on 440 00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 1: the sideline. Slynn, you were there too. Uh, that was 441 00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 1: the moment, Doug said afterwards. The game was over at 442 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:12,200 Speaker 1: that point. I mean it was the dagger in the heart. 443 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 1: You don't go in with a chance to go up 444 00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 1: nine to seven. Instead you're down thirteen to two after 445 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 1: they missed the extra point. It was a huge emotional 446 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:21,920 Speaker 1: swing and you I don't want to say quit, but 447 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 1: you could see the deflation on the jag board sideline. 448 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 1: They knew how embarrassing that was. Deflation is a much 449 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 1: better word for this thing. Quick. I really don't believe 450 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:35,119 Speaker 1: the jag was necessarily quit. But if you get one 451 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 1: or two guys who were deflated, which I guess could 452 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 1: be translated as quit at that moment. Uh, then you 453 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:43,200 Speaker 1: get plays like you saw what the Henry play. I 454 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:46,680 Speaker 1: got a lot of emails over the weekend. Uh, why 455 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 1: did they go forward here? Why didn't they take points? Um? 456 00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:53,520 Speaker 1: Because you're four and eight on the road Thursday night, 457 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:57,359 Speaker 1: short week, often struggles and a couple of things of 458 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:01,520 Speaker 1: legitimate reasons, why you go for it? They had been 459 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:04,880 Speaker 1: very good in this situation in the two games where 460 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:08,359 Speaker 1: Leonard Fornett had been playing against Pittsburgh and Buffalo, they 461 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:12,800 Speaker 1: had driven it in inside the tent. So among all 462 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 1: the things over the last two months, if you wanted 463 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 1: to make a list of things they had been good at, 464 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:22,040 Speaker 1: it's a pretty short list. But that was one of 465 00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 1: them that they had been doing well. So, Uh, if 466 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,679 Speaker 1: you're trying to grasp it's some sort of of an 467 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 1: identity of what you are, of what you think you're 468 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 1: doing well, of what you can go with. Um going 469 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 1: into that game, if it if you had said, hey, 470 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,919 Speaker 1: they're on the three yard line with with two downs 471 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:45,880 Speaker 1: to do it, wouldn't you have said, well, they should 472 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:48,640 Speaker 1: run Leonard for net twice? I mean, so I didn't 473 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 1: have a problem with that with going forward in that situation, Um, 474 00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,639 Speaker 1: because it felt at that point like it was going 475 00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 1: to be a game where points were scarce, So getting 476 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:01,440 Speaker 1: up nine evan at that point, I do think it 477 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 1: would have you know, made a small difference. This wouldn't 478 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 1: have one, but it made a small difference. And I 479 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 1: think it's an important point. Um, quit is a voluntary thing. 480 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:15,440 Speaker 1: It's a conscious decision. I didn't see that of deflation 481 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 1: right where you just you lose that enthusiasm that is 482 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 1: that's almost involuntary. I'm just telling you the sideline you 483 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 1: could just after that play, Um the ninety nine yards 484 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 1: and I turned to accidentally went, that's an NFL record, 485 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 1: tied Tony Dorset's NFL record. That's she went, thanks genius. Yeah, 486 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 1: why did you know it? I did not know? And 487 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:41,919 Speaker 1: did I say Tony Dorset against Minnesota. But deflation all 488 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 1: on part right totally. But I'm dealing with someone here 489 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 1: who's three and wasn't alive when it was seven. Yeah, John, 490 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 1: did you see the original play? I did. Yeah, I 491 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 1: saw it on a black and white TV on Green Willow. 492 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:57,879 Speaker 1: Line said against the bike, I watched it. Skins won 493 00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:01,640 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl? They yeah, okay, anything else yes, one more. 494 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 1: Cody Kessler sacked four times for forty five yards in 495 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:09,199 Speaker 1: the top light start and the loss to the Titans 496 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 1: offensive line and not play well. So let's go to 497 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 1: the third quarter and see that bill to really generate 498 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:21,360 Speaker 1: much scoring this year. Let Kessler brawlers out right now. 499 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:24,359 Speaker 1: It's rolled a fumble and the Titans got on top 500 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 1: of it. So here's the here's the deflation right up. 501 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:31,200 Speaker 1: You don't get them on fourth down and Derrick Henry 502 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:34,200 Speaker 1: goes yards. You turn the ball over the very next play, 503 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry goes what fifty two yard, fifty four yards? Whatever? 504 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 1: It was? Um, the bang bang play. And that showed you, 505 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,199 Speaker 1: Jarl Case, he was just in the backfield all night. 506 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 1: Well and you saw there. It was I hate to 507 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 1: say microcosm of the season every time you see a 508 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:58,480 Speaker 1: bad play, but here's a case where Kessler literally couldn't 509 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:00,280 Speaker 1: even get his foot in the ground to turn round. 510 00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 1: And you've got I think it was Flowers turned around 511 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:06,960 Speaker 1: trying to pick him up. And you've got chat. You've 512 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,040 Speaker 1: got a lot of guys who they didn't think we're 513 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 1: going to be starting. Um, we have two guys that 514 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 1: started the year on the Giants rosterm so and absolutely 515 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 1: Katie Barr the door before you didn't even turn around. 516 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:25,920 Speaker 1: So uh again, they've scored eight points that matter in 517 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:29,479 Speaker 1: three games or in two games.

Now, despite everything that 548 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 1: we've said about Blake Bortles on the field, we all 549 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 1: can agree that if there were fifty three Blake Boardles 550 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 1: on your roster that it would be a good team 551 00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 1: to be around. Nuts for sure, Yes, as a person, 552 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:49,479 Speaker 1: he's fantastic and his foundation the Blake Bortles Foundation supports 553 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 1: first responders and the developmental lee disabled. So let's see 554 00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 1: what he has to say about his foundation. The areas 555 00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 1: in need that my foundation supports are our first responders, 556 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 1: so cops, firefighters, UM, paramedics, and then also we do 557 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 1: a lot with with mentally disabled UM, so kind of 558 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 1: the arc here has won locally that that we support. 559 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:11,880 Speaker 1: UM it's a it's a living facility. And then also 560 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:14,160 Speaker 1: back home, there's there's a Challenger League that I was 561 00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:17,000 Speaker 1: involved in growing up and throughout high school. So those 562 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:19,640 Speaker 1: are those are two, um, the two things that that 563 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:22,240 Speaker 1: my foundation supports. And we talked about starting the foundation 564 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 1: and being able to be uh you know, kind of 565 00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 1: active in the community and doing different things, and the 566 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 1: two areas that I really wanted to focus on we're 567 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 1: you know, mentally disabled in first responders, and both of 568 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 1: those um, you know categories had big impacts on my life, 569 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,320 Speaker 1: you know, growing up playing football and ovido. All of 570 00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 1: our coaches where firefighters were cops, so those were you 571 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 1: know a lot of mentors to me. And then I 572 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 1: got involved at a young age with the thing called 573 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 1: the Challenger Football League back in my hometown. UM and 574 00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:48,600 Speaker 1: created some great relationships and said, you know, if I 575 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:51,480 Speaker 1: forget the opportunity to help people out, you know that 576 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:55,280 Speaker 1: this is what I'm gonna help out. Good dude. A 577 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:57,040 Speaker 1: lot of people in this building the cheer for him 578 00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 1: personally for the things that he does. I'm one of them. 579 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:03,160 Speaker 1: I just I've always enjoyed him. Um. By the way, 580 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:05,680 Speaker 1: have you seen J. J. Watt The patch that he 581 00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:08,680 Speaker 1: wears on his jersey. It's it's the the man of 582 00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:11,120 Speaker 1: the year that it's Walter Payton. I guess in a 583 00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:15,000 Speaker 1: in a long coat. Uh. If I was an NFL player, 584 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:18,560 Speaker 1: that's the patch I'd want that. It's very distinctive. It's 585 00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:22,880 Speaker 1: very subtle, but it says great player, great person. Yeah. 586 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:25,960 Speaker 1: When I was with the Colts, paid Manning one that No. 587 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 1: Six o seven I think we what year it was, 588 00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:32,000 Speaker 1: but it was clear out of everything that he won 589 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 1: in his career that that was up there among the 590 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:38,240 Speaker 1: ones that matter. A great deal. One thing about Blake 591 00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 1: that um, I think most people realize, but that I 592 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 1: guessed to be restated. For him to be as involved 593 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:53,840 Speaker 1: and as good in the communities as he's been can't 594 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 1: have always been easy because it's not like the criticism 595 00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:01,719 Speaker 1: of him and the you know, the jokes and all 596 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 1: the stuff that you hear around Blake. The noise just 597 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:06,600 Speaker 1: started in the last two months. It's it's really been 598 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 1: going on since he was a rookie. Um, A lot 599 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:13,920 Speaker 1: of guys in his situation could have easily gone into 600 00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:16,959 Speaker 1: a cocoon just coming in here and played quarterback. Uh 601 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:22,320 Speaker 1: gone home, come in every He has managed to shut 602 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:24,880 Speaker 1: out a lot of that and still been a major 603 00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:27,760 Speaker 1: factor in the community while a lot of noise and 604 00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:30,040 Speaker 1: a lot of bad things have been going on around 605 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:33,560 Speaker 1: in terms of people saying things about him. So credit 606 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:37,719 Speaker 1: to him for making something that can have always been 607 00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:40,640 Speaker 1: easy look easy because you always said, I mean, I 608 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 1: think Blake everybody always says, ohways a great guy. Nobody 609 00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:47,680 Speaker 1: cares about that. Well, Um, it's not always easy to 610 00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:50,880 Speaker 1: be a great guy when you know people are criticizing 611 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 1: what you're doing on the field, etcetera, etcetera. So I 612 00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:55,120 Speaker 1: think I credit to him to be a Man of 613 00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:58,160 Speaker 1: the Year after candidate, after everything that he's gone through 614 00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 1: and through criticism off on the yield is impressive, impressive 615 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 1: and it does mattery. People do care about that for sure, alright. 616 00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:10,680 Speaker 1: Uh time for snapshot. All right, let's go to Mark 617 00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:14,240 Speaker 1: from Archer, Florida. I recently read an article that stated 618 00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 1: there is a growing chance that Tom Coughlin is going 619 00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,160 Speaker 1: to take over as coach for the Jags. Next cut 620 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 1: you off? Good? Are you talked? I mean, we've are 621 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:25,080 Speaker 1: you going over this topic? Growing chance? Growing chance is 622 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 1: the one that I love, Ryan, A growing chance there 623 00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:31,359 Speaker 1: was a growing chance to one pent is growing. Since 624 00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:35,600 Speaker 1: we've already done this, I'll bring up a different topic. Um. 625 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:41,880 Speaker 1: I got incredible number emails this week about should they 626 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:46,600 Speaker 1: trade Jalen Ramsey? It is he a problem? And I 627 00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:49,680 Speaker 1: think it stems from a lot of the same thing 628 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:52,680 Speaker 1: that this Tom cough An article. There was some story 629 00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 1: or or something where somebody was talking about Jalen Ramsey 630 00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 1: over the weekend. I guess it was Pro Football Talk. 631 00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:01,600 Speaker 1: Took his quotes after that ain't totally out of context, Um, 632 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:07,239 Speaker 1: because they weren't there. You were. Did you have any 633 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:09,759 Speaker 1: problem with anything? He said, nothing? Right, nothing. Let me 634 00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:12,160 Speaker 1: take a step further. And he wasn't throwing his teammates 635 00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 1: under the bus and those things. If you listen to him, 636 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 1: he was trying, I thought, and I wasn't there for 637 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:18,360 Speaker 1: the whole thing. But I think I missed one of 638 00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:22,520 Speaker 1: his questions. Um. I thought he was trying to be 639 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:27,280 Speaker 1: as stand up as he could and answer questions honestly, 640 00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:31,720 Speaker 1: and I in no way thought that he was trying 641 00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:34,840 Speaker 1: to shine the light on himself. Uh. And for that, 642 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 1: I understand the internet age we live in that people 643 00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:40,759 Speaker 1: take quotes and it gets aggregated it and it's like 644 00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 1: the game you know, sure well spot it up where 645 00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:45,759 Speaker 1: you whisper in your friends here and all of a 646 00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:47,719 Speaker 1: sudden comes out the other thing on the other side. Um. 647 00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:51,320 Speaker 1: I didn't think that was that at all, And I 648 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 1: thought that Jaalen in the last month has moved very 649 00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 1: far away from that to where I don't think he's 650 00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,799 Speaker 1: an issue. I've been beating that drum, you know, about 651 00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:02,640 Speaker 1: how professional he's been and how I've seen it. Um. 652 00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:05,239 Speaker 1: So when I saw that Pro Football Talk had done that, 653 00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:07,319 Speaker 1: I thought, whoa, whoa, WHOA. Did I get this wrong? 654 00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:10,399 Speaker 1: Because if you recall in my quick thoughts, my last 655 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:13,200 Speaker 1: quick thought was about Jalen uh and how I thought 656 00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:15,959 Speaker 1: that he had quietly throughout the course of the game. 657 00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:19,400 Speaker 1: You know, further, that narrative that we've had about how 658 00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:24,319 Speaker 1: he's grown, so he um was miked up during the game, 659 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:27,720 Speaker 1: and I had the chance to hear him talk okay, 660 00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:30,120 Speaker 1: at a much greater level than I normally do with 661 00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 1: just him behind the bench. And I'm telling you, I 662 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:35,960 Speaker 1: was impressed with the way that he dealt with his teammates, 663 00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:40,040 Speaker 1: with the circumstances with his coaches. When I read the 664 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,359 Speaker 1: Pro Football Talk thing all, I wanted to fire off 665 00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 1: a tweet. I decided not to because they would just 666 00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 1: hit with it while you work for the team nonsense. 667 00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 1: But the reality of it was they got it out. 668 00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:51,000 Speaker 1: They got it wrong. Jalen Ramsey. I wouldn't trade him 669 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:54,520 Speaker 1: at all. Great player who appears to be growing and 670 00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:57,960 Speaker 1: maturing in the locker room and into a And I 671 00:36:58,040 --> 00:36:59,800 Speaker 1: hate the word leadership because everyone wants to do the 672 00:36:59,880 --> 00:37:02,800 Speaker 1: leadership like it's raw rock college football with it. It's not. 673 00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:06,080 Speaker 1: But you talked about lead by example, man, he does it, 674 00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:08,239 Speaker 1: does it at least he has the last month. He 675 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:12,480 Speaker 1: has come a long way since that really rotten Sunday 676 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 1: in Indianapolis, where on the field and on the bench 677 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:17,960 Speaker 1: he was a paint nonsense. Yeah, I think everyone will 678 00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:19,680 Speaker 1: be impressed if they go to Jaguars dot Com and 679 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:21,719 Speaker 1: watch that because I was impressed watching it. And then 680 00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:24,160 Speaker 1: you go back to Pro Football Talk, and it's hard 681 00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:27,040 Speaker 1: to taken into context when you're not standing there in 682 00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:29,600 Speaker 1: the locker room after a loss. Weil and so the 683 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 1: other thing is Todd wash comes and puts his arm 684 00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:34,560 Speaker 1: around him late in the ball game and talk to 685 00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:37,360 Speaker 1: him about how impressed he was with the way that 686 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:39,320 Speaker 1: he handled himself, and he could see the way he 687 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 1: interacted with his teammates. Um, if they watched that Pro 688 00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:48,279 Speaker 1: Football talkle offer a retraction, let's hope. So all right, 689 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:51,560 Speaker 1: let's go to Jeff from Jacksonville. What are your thoughts 690 00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:54,600 Speaker 1: John on the Jack's possibly trading their first round pick 691 00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:56,960 Speaker 1: to a rebuilding team for a first round of their 692 00:37:56,960 --> 00:37:59,799 Speaker 1: following season and maybe a lower pick the end game 693 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:01,840 Speaker 1: to put yourself in a position to get to h 694 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:04,040 Speaker 1: or Murray. I think this will give a team that 695 00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:07,000 Speaker 1: AMMO to possibly trade up and get one of them. Yeah, 696 00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:11,759 Speaker 1: and quite the situation we're here now where it's gonna 697 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:15,960 Speaker 1: be draft talk. Uh, that's sort of the reason I 698 00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:17,920 Speaker 1: chose this. And I'm getting draft questions all the time, 699 00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:20,520 Speaker 1: which I won't use very many of them. Mental life 700 00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:25,080 Speaker 1: of the season. Um, that question, those sort of implies 701 00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:30,880 Speaker 1: that they would be waiting for two thousand twenty. I 702 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:35,200 Speaker 1: don't think this franchise is going to be in a 703 00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:38,800 Speaker 1: wait and try to build for the future kind of 704 00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 1: thing to the degree. And I got into everybody's head 705 00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:44,920 Speaker 1: because that's what they did in two thousand and twelve thirteen. 706 00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:48,760 Speaker 1: If you remember, Ah, there was a much more measured 707 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:52,160 Speaker 1: approach of saying, well, it's okay, we'll build for three 708 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 1: or four years down the road. I don't think they're 709 00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:59,440 Speaker 1: going to I don't think the temperature of the organization 710 00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:02,040 Speaker 1: will be that they take that kind of approach. I 711 00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:03,839 Speaker 1: have no idea what they're doing in the draft next year. 712 00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:05,600 Speaker 1: I get that, but I don't think it's going to 713 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:09,200 Speaker 1: be well, let's tear down a lot and then build 714 00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 1: for something way out in the future. Uh. That just 715 00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:14,879 Speaker 1: doesn't feel to me like something that they're gonna want 716 00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:16,800 Speaker 1: to do after what happened with it last time. We 717 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:19,719 Speaker 1: not talk about how Calais Campbell belongs here next year 718 00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:22,000 Speaker 1: with his salary the way that it is, not even 719 00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:24,880 Speaker 1: don't even bother redoing it. He's worth the money. Why 720 00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:27,839 Speaker 1: would you pay him or Marcel. Why would you pay 721 00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:30,680 Speaker 1: some of these big dollar contracts to Shawn Gibson if 722 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:32,520 Speaker 1: you keep him around If you're not going to win 723 00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:35,960 Speaker 1: right away? What why say, well, we're not, we're rebuilding 724 00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:38,680 Speaker 1: and pay this. If you're rebuilding, you you tear it 725 00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:41,640 Speaker 1: down and you clear salary cap room right away. So 726 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:45,399 Speaker 1: you go find a veteran quarterback to bridge until your 727 00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:48,480 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield to use him as an example, Uh is 728 00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:51,520 Speaker 1: ready to go? No, there's yeah, you're you're not thinking 729 00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:55,279 Speaker 1: about you're thinking about nineteen and the do they remember that? 730 00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:58,520 Speaker 1: Is as silly as that might sound, Oh you're four 731 00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:02,799 Speaker 1: and nine. Uh, it's not like they've gotten blown out. 732 00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:06,080 Speaker 1: I mean I think when this a franchise looks at 733 00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:11,279 Speaker 1: what to do next, they will with reason look at 734 00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:15,960 Speaker 1: all the offensive injuries, look at everything that happened, and 735 00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:19,560 Speaker 1: still look at how close this team was to being 736 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:22,560 Speaker 1: seven and six, eight and five. And I'm not talking 737 00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:26,759 Speaker 1: about fooling themselves into into thinking certain things don't need 738 00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:30,200 Speaker 1: to happen. But I also don't think they need to 739 00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:32,520 Speaker 1: look at it and say, oh, my goodness, were so 740 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:36,279 Speaker 1: far away that we couldn't possibly compete. If it's Tom 741 00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:38,680 Speaker 1: Coughlin at the top, which I still believe it is. 742 00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 1: Do you think he's gonna come in and say, Brian, 743 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:44,759 Speaker 1: we're a long way away and we're gonna build one. 744 00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:48,480 Speaker 1: I don't think he's by the way. You know, you're 745 00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:50,560 Speaker 1: talking about a man who's in his early seventies, but 746 00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:53,399 Speaker 1: he can't be thinking long term at that point in time. 747 00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:55,759 Speaker 1: You're thinking about right now. He didn't think long term. 748 00:40:56,840 --> 00:40:59,319 Speaker 1: Say I said that Tom was never a long term 749 00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:02,280 Speaker 1: He's a coach. He's in a new role, but coaches 750 00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:04,440 Speaker 1: think about today. It's the general managers. The day he 751 00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:05,880 Speaker 1: was ticked off when they were ow in two and 752 00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:09,720 Speaker 1: when they had no talent. So I mean, I'll never forget. 753 00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:12,480 Speaker 1: After they lost the opening game to the Houston Oilers, 754 00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:14,680 Speaker 1: he said, I'm not a patient man, but you just 755 00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:18,000 Speaker 1: took an expansion job. You better be patient. That's not 756 00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:20,680 Speaker 1: who it's not who he is. And as long as 757 00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:22,719 Speaker 1: he's sitting at the top. But I'll say it again, 758 00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:26,960 Speaker 1: if you're thinking about and skipping over, there's no reason 759 00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:29,839 Speaker 1: to keep the high dollar guys on defense, right. You'll 760 00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:32,680 Speaker 1: know very quickly if those guys are coming back, they're 761 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:34,560 Speaker 1: not looking at twenty jobs. Because why I spend the 762 00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:39,000 Speaker 1: money is that it one more good Old James. Remind 763 00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:41,279 Speaker 1: me again what the leaders are on this team, and 764 00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:43,520 Speaker 1: is it possible Paul pas Lesnie had such a big 765 00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:45,840 Speaker 1: impact on this team, both as a leader and his 766 00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:48,400 Speaker 1: ability to motivate someone like Kelvin Smith that he is 767 00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:54,000 Speaker 1: so very missed. Yeah, and parts of this resonate a 768 00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:58,840 Speaker 1: little bit. But Paul didn't motivate Telvin Smith. Tell was 769 00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:02,520 Speaker 1: probably capable of motivating self. Uh. I think there are 770 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:05,640 Speaker 1: elements of of positive miss. I think these elements of 771 00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:09,480 Speaker 1: Mercedes that are miss. I think an overall losing those 772 00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:14,760 Speaker 1: two guys certainly didn't help, um, But I don't believe 773 00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:19,000 Speaker 1: that if they had, if they had resigned or being 774 00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:21,960 Speaker 1: able to draw Paul pause lessni back, I don't think 775 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,319 Speaker 1: the outcome of this season is dramatically different. I don't 776 00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:28,759 Speaker 1: think he's a offensive guard. I mean, so catch the 777 00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:34,480 Speaker 1: ball now? Would the run defense have been better in 778 00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:38,759 Speaker 1: that situation? Is he a better run stuffing player? Sure? Uh, 779 00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:42,480 Speaker 1: in situation like that it might help. But um, there's 780 00:42:42,520 --> 00:42:45,000 Speaker 1: been sort of a narrative of boy, if they had 781 00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:48,200 Speaker 1: had paused all these miscommunications on defense, wouldn't have happened 782 00:42:48,719 --> 00:42:51,720 Speaker 1: he played of place last year. He was not calling 783 00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:55,879 Speaker 1: the defense there. There was a standard that he said 784 00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:57,880 Speaker 1: that I think other players naturally try to live up 785 00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:00,360 Speaker 1: to that I think would have helped, but it wouldn't 786 00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:03,200 Speaker 1: have been the difference between four and nine and in playoffs. No, 787 00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:05,440 Speaker 1: and you still have Kilis here who represents the highest 788 00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:08,200 Speaker 1: virtues and values of a locker room that Paul did. 789 00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:10,640 Speaker 1: So all, let's take our final break when we come back, 790 00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:12,239 Speaker 1: a couple of NFL headlines and we'll wrap up a 791 00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:14,000 Speaker 1: Monday Morning show for you here, brought to you by 792 00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:24,040 Speaker 1: Jet Home onmes only in Jacksonville, Can you tour a 793 00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:27,239 Speaker 1: state of the art hospitality show home before a game?

Back to 821 00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:58,400 Speaker 1: wrap up a Monday morning, Brian Ashland, John at ever Bankbank, 822 00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:04,240 Speaker 1: t A. Bank Field UH one final home game Sunday 823 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:06,640 Speaker 1: against the Redskins, and then they finished on the road 824 00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:10,440 Speaker 1: in Miami and in Houston. A couple headlines from we 825 00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:12,839 Speaker 1: are on the National Football League yesterday, here's a big one, 826 00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:16,200 Speaker 1: UH and it's probably no surprise to anybody who follows 827 00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:21,239 Speaker 1: great quarterbacks, but Aaron Rodgers set an NFL record yesterday 828 00:45:21,360 --> 00:45:25,360 Speaker 1: when he passed Tom Brady with his hold on and 829 00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:30,839 Speaker 1: fifty nine consecutive passed without an interception. He nearly gave 830 00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:32,360 Speaker 1: it away six plays later. I mean he hit the 831 00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:35,040 Speaker 1: defensive back right in the chest. He throws so hard 832 00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:39,279 Speaker 1: the guy couldn't hold on. Finished with the three consecutive 833 00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:44,280 Speaker 1: passes without an interception in today's day and age. Amazing. 834 00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:49,200 Speaker 1: And there's some criticism of him up there that he 835 00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:51,160 Speaker 1: should be taking more chances, but that's what you're gonna 836 00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:52,839 Speaker 1: get when you're four and seven and your quarterback hasn't 837 00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:54,480 Speaker 1: done an interception in eight years. By the way, he 838 00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:58,280 Speaker 1: is now first in NFL history in touchdown to interception ratio, 839 00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:02,120 Speaker 1: one of the all time rights. Up next, another one 840 00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:05,080 Speaker 1: of the old time greats, and he caught Jerry Rice. 841 00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:06,920 Speaker 1: This one caught me off guard because it said that 842 00:46:06,960 --> 00:46:10,759 Speaker 1: Fitzgerald catches Rice. He caught one of his records in 843 00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:13,360 Speaker 1: his fifteenth season with the Cardinals. Hard to remember, you know, 844 00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:16,400 Speaker 1: hard to forget just how great a player. Let me 845 00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:19,480 Speaker 1: say that a gay. Sometimes we forget what a great 846 00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:21,640 Speaker 1: player he is because he's played out there in Arizona 847 00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:25,000 Speaker 1: the last few years without a quarterback. But he passed 848 00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:29,600 Speaker 1: Jerry Rice for the most catches with one team. Jerry 849 00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:32,640 Speaker 1: had one thousand, two d eighty one catches with the 850 00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:36,360 Speaker 1: San Francisco forty Niners before finishing his career with the Raiders. 851 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:41,480 Speaker 1: And yesterday, uh, Fitzgerald caught his one thousand, two hundred 852 00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:45,120 Speaker 1: eighty second pass. So he got one of Jerry Rice's records. 853 00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:48,520 Speaker 1: And that's significant because do you want to jump in here. Well, 854 00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:51,040 Speaker 1: I was gonna tell Ashley Jerry Rice was a wide receiver. 855 00:46:51,520 --> 00:46:56,719 Speaker 1: Wasn't the Widers most records? When you see Jerry Rice, 856 00:46:56,760 --> 00:46:58,840 Speaker 1: I think there's no way anyone's catching that right his 857 00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:01,000 Speaker 1: catch number. Wrote this down to make sure I had 858 00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:03,960 Speaker 1: it right. He is number one in NFL history with 859 00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:07,759 Speaker 1: one thousand, five hundred and forty nine catches. Think about that, 860 00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:12,960 Speaker 1: Fitzgerald is three hundred roughly three hundred behind him in 861 00:47:13,040 --> 00:47:15,720 Speaker 1: his NFL season, So you think that's not gonna happen. 862 00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:22,919 Speaker 1: A number of yards all times six thousand on catching 863 00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:25,439 Speaker 1: him right, and how often did these guys come along? 864 00:47:25,719 --> 00:47:28,879 Speaker 1: You'll I don't think you'll ever see those records go down. Well, 865 00:47:29,920 --> 00:47:35,040 Speaker 1: somebody will break right eventually because the game is changing 866 00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:39,960 Speaker 1: so much. But what's striking about Rice is in his 867 00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:44,440 Speaker 1: first five, six seven years, the NFL was not yet 868 00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:48,239 Speaker 1: the passing league it is now. Although the Niners were 869 00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:51,919 Speaker 1: always ahead of the curve right then, were not set 870 00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:55,000 Speaker 1: up to be like it is now. The biggest thing 871 00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:58,080 Speaker 1: with Rice is somebody will have to want to play 872 00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:01,759 Speaker 1: that long, uh, and be able to play that long 873 00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:03,520 Speaker 1: and take care of himself to play that long, because 874 00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:06,400 Speaker 1: he had four or five years after he should have 875 00:48:06,560 --> 00:48:09,800 Speaker 1: been done where he was still piling up numbers have 876 00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:12,799 Speaker 1: to catch. You think Randy Moss at a time, there 877 00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:15,040 Speaker 1: was a moment where it looked like he but he didn't. 878 00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:16,319 Speaker 1: You know, he's been out of the game a long 879 00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:19,799 Speaker 1: time already, so I don't know I'd be surprised by 880 00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:22,120 Speaker 1: the way he played at Mississippi Valley State. So don't 881 00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:23,960 Speaker 1: let anybody tell you you have to play at Florida 882 00:48:24,040 --> 00:48:26,879 Speaker 1: or Alabama to have a successful career. Hall of Famer, 883 00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:29,600 Speaker 1: one of the greats to come out of Mississippi Valley State. 884 00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:34,000 Speaker 1: And I'll do it for Monday morning, UH, following an 885 00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:38,040 Speaker 1: off weekend after the Thursday night loss. UH. Jackson Redskins 886 00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:40,400 Speaker 1: coming up Sunday final home game. Of course, we'll be 887 00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:42,800 Speaker 1: here all week. John will join us on Wednesday and Friday. 888 00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:45,319 Speaker 1: Bat'll lew it for Jags drive time. Thanks to Joe 889 00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:46,760 Speaker 1: and Max. Have a great day, everybody.
