1 00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:07,760 Speaker 1: Welcome in to the J. P. Shaddick Podcast. Today's Friday, 2 00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:11,440 Speaker 1: August and coming up a preview of the preseason week 3 00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:14,800 Speaker 1: three game against the Atlanta Falcons, including a preview of 4 00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:17,239 Speaker 1: what you'll hear on the public tailgate show on Jaguars 5 00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:21,880 Speaker 1: Radio Saturday afternoon. Let's get right to it. Preseason week three. 6 00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:25,160 Speaker 1: It's normally the dress rehearsal week and usually the week 7 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:28,560 Speaker 1: you'll see the starters go a little deeper into the game. Now, 8 00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:32,360 Speaker 1: different coaches have different philosophies on playing time this week, 9 00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:35,120 Speaker 1: but for head coach Doc Moron, it's pretty clear. You see, 10 00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 1: I think you have to play that. That's more than 11 00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 1: my UM philosophy. You know. I like to gradually build 12 00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,080 Speaker 1: it up and like those guys to play just you know, 13 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 1: mentally play together. Communication. I think there's a lot more 14 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: that goes into it. I think if someone is UM 15 00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 1: has the potential of you know, maybe they're just feeling 16 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 1: off or or from a standpoint of injuries, you know, 17 00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 1: then I take that player right out. No need to 18 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 1: put him in in that situation. But you know, I 19 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,960 Speaker 1: do believe, I've always believed that you get better by playing, 20 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 1: you know, faster than you do by practicing. So you know, 21 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 1: I I tend to like to you know, player starters, 22 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 1: and in a third preseason game, one of those starters 23 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:18,040 Speaker 1: that will get playing time this week is running back 24 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 1: Leonard for that now, he said in the locker room 25 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,959 Speaker 1: earlier this week, his goal is to score and get out. Well, 26 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,679 Speaker 1: it might not be that easy for seven, but it 27 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 1: tells you his mindset a bit getting ready for the 28 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:33,320 Speaker 1: regular season and maybe not exactly the full third preseason game. 29 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 1: He also spoke this week about his relationship with and 30 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 1: the play of fourth year running back t J. Yeldon, 31 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 1: who stood out him last week's game in Minnesota. You know, 32 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:46,040 Speaker 1: I love I love TJ. Company. Uh kind of kind 33 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 1: of google, kind of good to love each other, you 34 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 1: know what I mean. We have a wonderful relationship outside 35 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: of football and his production. Man, you know, he's uh, 36 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: he's slimming down. You can tell he's a lot quicken 37 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:57,640 Speaker 1: than when he was last year, and I think, uh, 38 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 1: he's more focused on that. It's a good one two 39 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 1: punch there at the running back position. An offensive coordinator 40 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: Nathaniel hack And has fired up about his backfield. I'll 41 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 1: tell you the combination of seven and twenty four. It's 42 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 1: it's it's pretty exciting, you know. I mean those guys 43 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 1: are both having a real good camp, you know, just 44 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 1: how they've been in the classroom and how they've studied, 45 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 1: Especially a guy like Leonard that you know, we came 46 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:20,800 Speaker 1: just handing the ball, handling the ball. I mean, his 47 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 1: his you know, increase in third down, his increasing understanding protections, 48 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,920 Speaker 1: is increasing the pass game. Um. You know that that 49 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 1: gives you a lot of different things you can do 50 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 1: with him, you know, instead of just saying, hey, I 51 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 1: gotta hand the ball to him every time, you know, Um, 52 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:34,359 Speaker 1: And then you've got t J. Who I mean t 53 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:36,360 Speaker 1: J's I mean, he's been lights out. I mean, but 54 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 1: both those guys are are guys that you know you 55 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: want to give them the ball. And you know, there's 56 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:42,919 Speaker 1: a lot of guys that that you know, like you said, 57 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: you want to get Austin the ball. You I wish 58 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 1: there were more of them. Um, but uh, but but 59 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: it's one of those things, you know, you only have 60 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,519 Speaker 1: one football, but those guys are definitely guys that we 61 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:52,079 Speaker 1: want to feature. And then you get the speed and 62 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,920 Speaker 1: the juice of Corey Grant and Brandon Wilds has come along. 63 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: I mean, there's been a lot of good things from 64 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,640 Speaker 1: those guys. They still continue to develop, and um, we 65 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 1: want to sure we get them the ball, both in 66 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,079 Speaker 1: the past game and the run game. So I mean 67 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: it's a it's another room that's got some competition, especially 68 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:06,919 Speaker 1: for that third spot, you know. I mean, I mean, 69 00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:09,079 Speaker 1: Brandon did a really good job. He had some hard 70 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:12,359 Speaker 1: nosed runs there on some shortguards and goal line situations, 71 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 1: and we just want to keep seeing him developed up 72 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 1: front for this offense. Andrew Norwell and Jeremy Partnell are 73 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,079 Speaker 1: back on the offensive line this week in practice and 74 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 1: they're expected to play against the Falcons. That's good news, 75 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 1: of course, and there's also a lot of focus this 76 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 1: week on the playoff left tackle Cam Robinson. Now, he 77 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 1: said in the locker room he knows he didn't play 78 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 1: well last week against the Vikings, but he said it's 79 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 1: only one game and he'll move on from there. For 80 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 1: the head coach, it's a work in progress for the 81 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:38,839 Speaker 1: left tackle. Yeah. I think Cam would be the first 82 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 1: one to tell you. I mean, Cam would say, listen, 83 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 1: he's got to do a better job. I think he 84 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 1: understands that and we're working you know, towards that goal, 85 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 1: you know, to be more consistent and do a better job. 86 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 1: You know, sometimes you could have poor footwork, good hands 87 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 1: and win the blocks. Sometimes you've got a poor hands, 88 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: good footwork and win the block. So I think it's you. 89 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 1: There's a lot of different things that go into it. 90 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 1: The mindset prior to you know, how you're gonna at 91 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: somebody up and what you're gonna do. So did a 92 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 1: lot of things that go into it. So we'll do 93 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 1: whatever we can obviously, you know, to make sure that 94 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 1: he uh, you know, kind of gets out of it. 95 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 1: The Jags wide receivers haven't really had much of a 96 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 1: breakout performance yet in the preseason. Some solid play, though 97 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 1: There's been a couple of factors for that. Guys are 98 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:18,919 Speaker 1: coming in and out of the lineup, and the offense 99 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 1: really hasn't open up the playbook yet to move the 100 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 1: ball down the field. But a guy who has flashed 101 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 1: in practice so far is second round rookie d J. 102 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 1: Chark Jr. And veteran receiver Mark kis Lee. Thinks Chark 103 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 1: has what it takes. Obviously, he's athletic, tall, fast and 104 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 1: all that, but he seems like he's got everything that 105 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 1: a rookie would need that, the motivation, the ability to 106 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 1: go out and perform right away. Do you guys see 107 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 1: that in him? Yeah, for sure. And you know, you 108 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 1: know it's upon us and stay on his head. You 109 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. You know you got drafted second round. 110 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 1: We always talk about, Hey, we felt like me after 111 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 1: saying him, you know, feel like you should be hired 112 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:55,600 Speaker 1: than what he was. You know what I'm saying, he 113 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 1: got the talent to go out there and be the 114 00:04:57,680 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 1: guy that needs to be. It's gonna take some time, 115 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: but I feel like he's gonna He's gonna get there. 116 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,160 Speaker 1: And my thing is about his mind is just he 117 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 1: got an open mindset to where he just wants to 118 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,279 Speaker 1: get there. You know, you don't know what there is yet, 119 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 1: but at the end of the day, you know he's 120 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 1: trying to get somewhere, and that's somewhere. It's just him 121 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 1: probably being great and do what he's supposed to be. 122 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 1: Now to the defense, Calias Campbell, the defensive lineman, has 123 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 1: dropped a little weight in this off season, and he's 124 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 1: ready to follow up an All Pro campaign a year 125 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 1: ago with another great season. It's a different feel for 126 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 1: him now a little bit lighter. I feel pretty good. 127 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: You know, this camp is very tough, so no matter what, 128 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,279 Speaker 1: I'm gonna feel a little better times. But you know, 129 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 1: my body feels a lot better than it has been 130 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 1: every sent years, and I guess it's always better to 131 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 1: be a little lighter. Uh So I'm looking forward to 132 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 1: seeing how that carries over to the football field. You 133 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: can hear the full conversations with Hackett, Lee, and Campbell 134 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 1: on the Public's Tailgate show tomorrow ahead of the Atlanta 135 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 1: Falcons matchup in preseason Week three. Meanwhile, elsewhere on the defense, 136 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,719 Speaker 1: plenty of players had some thoughts about the lowering the 137 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 1: helmet rule this week after the Jags are flagged twice. 138 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,919 Speaker 1: In many plush, including linebacker Miles Jack, I feel like 139 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,280 Speaker 1: it's inevitable. I'm gonna get here with one, honestly, just 140 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 1: because of how fast the game is, and obviously the 141 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:10,919 Speaker 1: rest are gonna be triggered happy just because it's a 142 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 1: big emphasis this year. So I feel like it's gonna happen, 143 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 1: and it will take time for everybody to kind of 144 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 1: evolve and change the game, but at some point, I 145 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 1: feel like there's got to be a leniency where there's 146 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 1: a no return rule, you know what I mean, there's 147 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: a point of no return where you can't really move 148 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 1: out the way without hurting yourself defensive tackle the leak. 149 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 1: Jackson agrees. I think that we might all get hit, 150 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: you know, because they're trying to find an even you know, 151 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 1: skill to put it on. You know. I think the 152 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,720 Speaker 1: other day, boy, you got hit with one, which is 153 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 1: kind of you know, not talking about NFL reps, but 154 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 1: it's kind of crazy to me because you put his 155 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:40,839 Speaker 1: head on the side. You know. I'm trying to find 156 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 1: an understanding of what they're supposed to do because I 157 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 1: don't know what else he could have done, you know. 158 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 1: But we'll get an answer back, and we'll see and 159 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 1: we'll try to grow as players and get an understanding. 160 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,279 Speaker 1: But that's what we have to do and the rules. 161 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 1: The league makes rules and we have to you know, 162 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,159 Speaker 1: adjust them.
