I was thinking Costa Rica would 23 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,360 Speaker 1: be nice too. In the football games will get in 24 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:29,959 Speaker 1: the way.

Why I 28 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,920 Speaker 1: was okay, Yeah, I figured there was a catch somebody. Yeah, 29 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 1: or Iowa. You know, is there a ProTeam in Iowa? 30 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 1: Let's make one. You and Brandon Sheriff would love that 31 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 1: trip for sure. Hey, Sheriff would have has lined up, 32 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 1: he wouldn't He would have has lined up pretty good, 33 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 1: I bet I think so. So we'll find out tonight, 34 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 1: you know, eight o'clock. Oh you know, the teams are playing. 35 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 1: It's no matter when the games are. And there was 36 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 1: only one that's been announced. That's the London game obviously, 37 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 1: the Broncos and the Jaguars October. Right then. There's been 38 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:09,799 Speaker 1: a few a few leaks here and there about some 39 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 1: games not not the Jaguars, but just games around the 40 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: league and uh, and some of the expectations there. And 41 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,360 Speaker 1: I thought it was interesting and that there was an 42 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 1: article that was written recently that talked about how the 43 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 1: schedule kind of got put in a little bit of 44 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:30,680 Speaker 1: a cluster fudge because of the unretirement of Tom Brady. Yes, 45 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 1: I mean I think that's pretty wild, right, how they 46 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: had right, I think they had it almost ready and 47 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,920 Speaker 1: then Tom, just Tom, like I know him, Brady decided 48 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 1: it's tight. Uh, he decides to retire, like, oh, we 49 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:46,239 Speaker 1: got to redo the whole league schedule now. But I mean, 50 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 1: here's the reality. He's worth. He's worth the time and 51 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,920 Speaker 1: the effort of making the schedule read on or or 52 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: to get it right. If I'm an executive at CBS 53 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: or Fox and I realized they didn't redo the schedule 54 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 1: at three, I would have been well, Fox mainly would 55 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 1: be very upset. A Fox because Sunday Night game correct, correct, 56 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 1: But Fox because they want to make sure that they 57 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 1: can highlight their up and coming broadcaster. Who's gonna have 58 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 1: a ten year, three dollar contract. That's awesome, That's why. 59 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 1: How about that guy? The guys lined up for a 60 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 1: broadcasting contract before his playing career is even over. That's that. No, 61 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: no quarterback I don't think has ever had, or any 62 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 1: player has ever had an opportunity like what's being presented 63 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: to Tom Brady to be able to leave the game 64 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 1: and to make way way more money than he's ever 65 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 1: made as an NFL player, averaging thirty seven and a 66 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: half million dollars a year. I mean, it's awesome, it's good. 67 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 1: I mean it's awesome, but it's it just goes to 68 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: show you the power of Tom Brady. Joe Fortunato, Hello, 69 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: I just wonder if that thirty seven million dollars a 70 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 1: year will put him ahead of his wife. No, I 71 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: think he's got a long way ago. Absolutely not. No, 72 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:18,400 Speaker 1: it's not even close. It's all the same family though now. No. No, 73 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:20,040 Speaker 1: But it's cool. I mean, I'm happy for him, and 74 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna do great out just because it's 75 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,360 Speaker 1: it's Tom Brady, and he works incredibly hard at everything 76 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 1: that he does. A little more on the schedule, least 77 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,720 Speaker 1: tonight again eight o'clock NFL Network, Our special here at 78 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: eight o'clock on Jaguars dot Com, the Jacks social channels 79 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: as well Jaguars, YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook. What do you 80 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 1: look for first when the schedule? Can really want to know? 81 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,280 Speaker 1: I really want to know. That's why I asked the question, 82 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,599 Speaker 1: what do you first look for? Uh? Well, A couple 83 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: of things, umum. First of all, I look at it 84 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: from a competitive standpoint. Okay, how how good of a 85 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:56,679 Speaker 1: start can the Jaguars get out to early first month? 86 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 1: Because you want to be able to build momentum. So 87 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: I look at for in the first month in September, 88 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 1: you find out, Okay, what's going on? I look at 89 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 1: the key holidays, just from a family standpoint. Okay, what's 90 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 1: happening for Christmas? What's happening for Thanksgiving? Where are we 91 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: that week? Um? New Year's Okay, what's happening there? What's 92 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 1: happening around my son's birthday? What's happening around uh dear season? Okay? 93 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 1: So when you know, we know when the when the 94 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:29,720 Speaker 1: trip to London is, which is I believe the game 95 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 1: is gonna be played on the So is the bye 96 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,920 Speaker 1: week gonna happen the week after? Like what has happened 97 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:41,919 Speaker 1: in the past, Will it happen sooner? Will it happen later? 98 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: I mean, that's all kind of from a timing standpoint, 99 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,279 Speaker 1: because I mean, for you know, for our bye week, 100 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 1: we get some time off and that's you know, an 101 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 1: opportunity to get away a little bit. So I mean, yeah, 102 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 1: I mean there's a lot of things that you look at. 103 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 1: I also look at it from the standpoint of JP. 104 00:05:55,400 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 1: Are we going to Nashville in November when we get 105 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 1: to see the leave color change? Are we going to 106 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 1: Boston or a cold weather place in December? Seriously, I mean, 107 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 1: those are all the things that you look at when 108 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: you when you look at the schedule, and then what 109 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,040 Speaker 1: what kind of restaurants are in the city that we're 110 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 1: gonna be Let's get serious. I hate to say that, 111 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 1: but we're foodies. That's what it's about. From a player's perspective, 112 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 1: you're obviously kind of looking early to get that momentum, 113 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:27,839 Speaker 1: and then that bye week is key so you can 114 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: kind of get your body going and run. I say, 115 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 1: I don't think that. I don't think that. The only 116 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 1: thing that the players care about when it comes to 117 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 1: the bye week, I think is the proximity of when 118 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 1: it's gonna happen. I don't think they care whether it's 119 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:43,839 Speaker 1: week eight, nine, ten, eleven, as long as it's somewhere 120 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 1: in the middle of the season of the season. If 121 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 1: it happens incredibly early, the players will be highly disappointed. 122 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:53,239 Speaker 1: And so that's the only thing that I think players 123 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 1: look at from that standpoint from the bye week, But 124 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,840 Speaker 1: the players definitely look at the teams that they're gonna 125 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 1: play early in the schedule. As far as the momentum 126 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 1: building games that I talked about, they also look at 127 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 1: the cold weather games. Okay, late in the season. Are 128 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: you going to Green Bay in December? Are you going 129 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 1: to Buffalo in December. I'm just throwing out places that 130 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: typically can be very cold. Um, when you are a 131 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 1: northern climate team, you looked and saw like, for example, 132 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 1: if you're playing the same division as the Miami Dolphins, 133 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 1: if you're the New York Jets, are you going to 134 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 1: see them at their place in December? Because Okay, you're 135 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 1: acclimated to the cold in December. You don't want to 136 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 1: go down and play in Miami in December. You'd rather 137 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 1: go to Miami in September because you're used to the 138 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 1: to the heat exactly. So I mean, from a from 139 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 1: a player standpoint, I think those are the things that 140 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:45,119 Speaker 1: are in point also the division games where they fall 141 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: and we've seen now that the league has gone towards 142 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 1: having a lot of division games built up at the 143 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 1: back end of the schedule to make things obviously very 144 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:56,560 Speaker 1: important when it comes to playoff implications. Now over the 145 00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: at least the recent history last decade or so that 146 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 1: jack is really haven't had to worry about this, but 147 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 1: the prime time games. How many prime time games that 148 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 1: the last time that jack Bars were on Monday Night 149 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 1: football was twenty eleven. The last time they were on 150 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 1: Sunday Night football was two thousand and eight. It's been 151 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 1: a while. You have to perform well, obviously on the 152 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 1: field for a number of years to get that recognition, 153 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 1: to get those eyeballs on you, and you know it's 154 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 1: gonna be tough to mean, they've had Thursday night games obviously, 155 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 1: they rotate those around. Uh that could be expected a 156 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 1: game when you when you play for a team like 157 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 1: Jacksonville and you haven't been very good lately, you're hoping 158 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 1: that you may end up getting one national game besides 159 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: a typical Thursday game, because you know you're gonna have 160 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 1: a Thursday game. Everybody has to play Thursday game. And 161 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 1: so will that be the only national exposure or might 162 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 1: you get a Monday night game. The chances of getting 163 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 1: a Sunday night game for this football team are nil. 164 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,319 Speaker 1: I mean, unless you're winning ten games late in the 165 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,679 Speaker 1: year and they flex you in. You know, that's the 166 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 1: only way They're not gonna be on the schedule or 167 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 1: in the season. It's not gonna happen. And so they 168 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 1: were on the schedule, I think an eight team, but 169 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: they got the boot, got the boot. See you later. 170 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 1: But the expectation to even make a Monday night game, 171 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 1: I think it would be I think maybe far exceeding 172 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:19,679 Speaker 1: the expectations. I mean that this football team hasn't been 173 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 1: good and picked number one overall for the last two years. 174 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 1: So if anybody's expecting to have Monday night exposure, I mean, no, 175 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 1: that's not gonna happen. I think it would be shocking 176 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:34,200 Speaker 1: if it happens now. Typically, and in the past, you've 177 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 1: seen some teams that played poor team on Monday Night 178 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 1: or viewed as a poor team on Monday night just 179 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:47,119 Speaker 1: because it was you know, the other team was really good. Um, 180 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 1: could that happen, maybe, but I don't expect it. I 181 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 1: don't expect it with this, especially because of the extended schedule. 182 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 1: So now they Monday night has more opportunities to get 183 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,840 Speaker 1: more matchup, better matchup, and I just I don't think 184 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 1: that will happen. Looks at you gotta start winning ball games, 185 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:09,439 Speaker 1: win to get to get the expectations of Okay, are 186 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 1: we going to have a national TV game? And and 187 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: it's not a matter of all or it's disrespect. No, 188 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 1: it's not disrespect. It's a matter of not playing well. Yeah, 189 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 1: you're not playing you're not playing good enough football, not 190 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 1: nearly good enough of You're catering to a national audience 191 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 1: at that point, and a team that's not winning is 192 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 1: not going to cater to that audience. That's how it works. Yeah, 193 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:29,839 Speaker 1: So I don't know. I think it's gonna be interesting. 194 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:34,680 Speaker 1: And you know, you lose the the home game opportunity here, 195 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 1: the one that goes to London where you're playing the 196 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 1: Denver Broncos. So you still have, um, what's seven games left, 197 00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:44,199 Speaker 1: okay to be able to play here at home? Not 198 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 1: not eight seven seven because the one in London is 199 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 1: the eighth. So here are the seven opponents coming to 200 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: Jacksonville this year. That's already been out there obviously, so 201 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 1: the Titans, the Cults, the Texans, of course, the Raiders, 202 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 1: the Giants, and the Ravens are coming to Jacksonville and 203 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 1: the Cowboys too. But which is Uh, the Cowboys are 204 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 1: gonna be a big draw, The Giants are gonna be 205 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 1: a big draw. Um, the Ravens I think will be 206 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 1: a big draw. When I say big draw from from 207 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 1: within the market and from from outside the market. As 208 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 1: far as selling tickets, the ones that I think that 209 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 1: are always going to be difficult are the ones that 210 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 1: are in the Division Tennessee in Indianapolis. So you you 211 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:31,199 Speaker 1: hope that you get a favorable slot for those games 212 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 1: from a ticketing standpoint and just from a competitive standpoint. 213 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,720 Speaker 1: I mean, that's a tough home schedule. The Ravens are 214 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 1: pretty good football team. They just missed last year. Raiders 215 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 1: got in last year. The Cowboys are always knocking on 216 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: the door. I mean, the Titans are the Titans, you 217 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 1: know that. I mean that is that can be a 218 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 1: difficult run. And then the road schedule, you gotta go 219 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:54,079 Speaker 1: to the other side of the a f C West. Also, 220 00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 1: you're going to Kansas City, and I mean it is 221 00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 1: and in l A, the Chargers, that whole division is 222 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 1: is on the schedule this year. It's well, it's going 223 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 1: to going to l A to play the Chargers. I 224 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 1: don't think it's not like it's We're not talking about 225 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 1: a hostile environment. It's just a good football football team 226 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 1: with a good quarterback that had some some great offseason 227 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 1: acquisitions and trades that they were able to make. So 228 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,319 Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be a tough match up there. 229 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 1: Kanas City, that's a hostile environment now, and that's Patrick 230 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 1: Mahomes uh uh Andy Reid. That's about us as if 231 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 1: somebody wanted to take and then just throwing us out there, 232 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,559 Speaker 1: if there's a Jaguars fan that was sitting there going 233 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 1: you know what, I really would like to maybe once 234 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:39,440 Speaker 1: the schedule comes out, take a good look at it 235 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 1: and and make a road trip for me out of 236 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:46,559 Speaker 1: and read the road games off again real quick, okay, 237 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 1: which and with not the division ones, because Nashville is 238 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 1: always the place to go to within the division. Indianapolis 239 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 1: has got a good downtown. But if there's some fans 240 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 1: that are looking at maybe going to another game in 241 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 1: another market with the road games, So you mentioned Kansas City, 242 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,360 Speaker 1: and then the Jags are in Detroit as well. Not 243 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,199 Speaker 1: a place to go to. It's indoors. You know, you 244 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 1: got that going for you. Um, it's about all this 245 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 1: going they got at the Jets. Um. I mean, first 246 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 1: of all, if you if you want to go to 247 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:22,839 Speaker 1: the city, that's a great place. But you're not near 248 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 1: the city when you're at the stadium. Okay, you're still 249 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:29,880 Speaker 1: a pretty pretty good jump away. Keep going. Washington, Um, 250 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 1: Washington is out in the middle of nowhere Land, Maryland. 251 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:35,679 Speaker 1: You can stay in Baltimore, you can stay in d C. 252 00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 1: And so really, I mean it's it's I'm trying to 253 00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 1: be serious here and that there are a lot of 254 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 1: fans that want to go to a great place to 255 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 1: see a great game and also to get maybe a 256 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 1: little bit of local flavor. Keep going. Let's see those 257 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 1: are the ones out of division. Okay, I'm gonna tell 258 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 1: you right now, the one at the top of my 259 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 1: list out of the division is Kansas City. Kans City 260 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 1: has got first of all, it's a great ironment, it's 261 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 1: a great stadium, it has a kans City is a 262 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: is a is a cool town, has lots of things 263 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:10,440 Speaker 1: to to to choose from so out of all of 264 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 1: the non divisional road games, that would probably be at 265 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:18,440 Speaker 1: the top of my list. Um, New York would be 266 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 1: up there just because it's New York. New York is great, 267 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 1: but I mean in the division, Nashville is always king. 268 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 1: If you're into d C and doing all that stuff, 269 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 1: the museums and things on Saturday, that might be cool. 270 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 1: But again, the stadium is not. Literally you can it's 271 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 1: closer to fly out to Baltimore's airport to get to 272 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 1: the stadium. Yes, I mean it's it's literally if you 273 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 1: if you were to look at a map and you 274 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 1: look at Baltimore and d C and and go put 275 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 1: your finger right between the two of them, that's where 276 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 1: that stadium is at. And it's horrible traffic, just a 277 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 1: nightmare in and out of it. Yeah, I mean it's 278 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 1: it's yeah, it's not good. Now, I will tell you this, 279 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 1: if if you were going to Baltimore, I would tell 280 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 1: you that that's a great place to go to. It's 281 00:14:58,000 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 1: got a lot of things to do in the city. 282 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 1: It's looks not my favorite city, but the stadium stadium, 283 00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 1: right there's a great Yeah. But now, I mean Nashville, 284 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 1: I can tell you this. Nashville is an awesome city. 285 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,480 Speaker 1: It's a it's a great place to go to. It's 286 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 1: a great place to visit, music, music, roaw great restaurants, 287 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 1: great music, great entertainment. They've got the Colosseum downtown there 288 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:24,359 Speaker 1: where they've got hockey and different events that are happening. Indianapolis, 289 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 1: I think is a good town as far as it's 290 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 1: it's everything is right there. When you go to Indianapolis. 291 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 1: You can take an uber from the airport to the 292 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 1: downtown and you don't have to do any ubers while 293 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 1: you're downtown. You can walk everywhere. You know. I don't 294 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 1: think I've had a bad time in Nashville. I've had 295 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 1: to believe that I've had a couple of bad mornings 296 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 1: in that show. Yeah, I think we all might have 297 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 1: at one point. Hey, we'll come back in a moment. 298 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 1: And Rookie Minicamp starts tomorrow.

There are 310 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 1: two really good players there in both Trayvon and Aid 311 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 1: and at the at the top of our our draft board. 312 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 1: And and and you know, if let me let me 313 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 1: just go back a little bit. You know, obviously Cam Robinson, 314 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 1: you know, our left tackle, we were able to get 315 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 1: his contract done, you know, prior to the draft and 316 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 1: keep him here. I think I think, you know, sky's 317 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 1: a limit with him. So solidifying our offensive line that 318 00:16:56,400 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 1: way really, um really kind of helped to in the 319 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 1: decisions we made in the draft. And and then we 320 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 1: look at these two players and both are high character guys, 321 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,680 Speaker 1: both would be great in our room, in our locker room, 322 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 1: good leaders, um, you know. And for us, it was 323 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 1: it was just the potential, the upside, the things that 324 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 1: we saw and you know, as you know, Rich, I mean, 325 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:26,119 Speaker 1: as coaches, we were prevvy to a lot of a 326 00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:28,359 Speaker 1: lot of film and a lot of conversations that a 327 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 1: lot of people don't get right, and a lot of 328 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:34,600 Speaker 1: information and part of our job is to gain that information. 329 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 1: And and we just felt at the time that and 330 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 1: even sitting here today that you know, the best for 331 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:46,200 Speaker 1: our organization was Trayvon Walker.

Our courtesy to them and welcome backs, 334 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:58,119 Speaker 1: Jaguars Happy our j P. Shadrick with Jeff Logaman, Joe Fortunado, 335 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 1: br Reaver and the Jaguars have rookie Minicamp coming up 336 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 1: starting tomorrow. And that that was the conversation, why did 337 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 1: you pick Trayvon Walker over Aiden Hutchinson. Rich Eysens, a 338 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 1: noted Michigan alumnus. That's why he had a little vested 339 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: interest in the in the question there. So that was 340 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 1: the answer. Little upside and reports today that Trayvon Walker 341 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:22,640 Speaker 1: has come to it that they've come to the agreement 342 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:27,400 Speaker 1: to sign his rookie contract slotted anyway, but Apparently that's 343 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 1: going to happen officially a little later today. A lot 344 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:32,120 Speaker 1: of money, a lot of guaranteed money, as you would 345 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:35,400 Speaker 1: expect from the first overall picking the draft. And I'm 346 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 1: looking forward to watching him in the rookie minicamp. Yeah, 347 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 1: what do you want to see out of him like 348 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 1: this weekend? It's not like the old days when Dante 349 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,199 Speaker 1: Fowler's year really changed everything when he went down with 350 00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:51,879 Speaker 1: the knee issue and they're running like Lebanon cl Come, 351 00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:54,720 Speaker 1: it was that's pretty significant. A knee issue is like 352 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 1: a little tweet. It was not that he tore his 353 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 1: a c l so um, but that was they had 354 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,280 Speaker 1: try out guys, they're running a love it on eleven 355 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 1: and you know, it got toned down a little bit 356 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,560 Speaker 1: for at least in my view, since that time, as 357 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,479 Speaker 1: it should be. I mean, I think I think Roland 358 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:14,719 Speaker 1: rookies up in here and uh and expecting and wanting 359 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:17,639 Speaker 1: them to go completely full speed and wide open is 360 00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:23,320 Speaker 1: insanity for two reasons. One, the players need to acclimate 361 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:28,720 Speaker 1: to what your expectations are as coaches. Okay, these rookies 362 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: have been preparing for the draft. They haven't been preparing 363 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 1: for football practice. In the National Football League. Okay, they've 364 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:44,639 Speaker 1: been doing the handshake and kiss babies tour since the draft, okay, celebrating. Okay, 365 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 1: So I think you've got to have I think a 366 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 1: lot of common sense with the way you approach a 367 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:54,920 Speaker 1: rookie minicamp and that you're trying to assimilate these young 368 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:58,719 Speaker 1: players into their into your system and to teach them 369 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:03,639 Speaker 1: what the expectation ins are not immediately say physically you 370 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 1: need to show us right now, that's crazy, um. And 371 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:12,679 Speaker 1: then the other reason you have rookies that are drafted 372 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:17,880 Speaker 1: that you have huge investments in. Okay, Travon's gotta what's 373 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:24,639 Speaker 1: the guaranteed money signing bonus? Thirty seven million dollar total contract, 374 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:28,639 Speaker 1: but I think it's twenty four is guaranteed, full guarantee, guaranteed, 375 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 1: fully guaranteed contract, ton of upbrunket money. Okay. So you're 376 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 1: bringing in the draft picks with you know, Muma and 377 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 1: Lloyd and all the other guys, Connor, and then you're 378 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,879 Speaker 1: also bringing in a lot of rookies on a tryout basis, 379 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 1: so okay, so you have to be a little bit 380 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 1: smart there too, and that Okay, you've got a section 381 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 1: of rookies that are trying to make an impression. They're drafted, 382 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:55,159 Speaker 1: they know that they're gonna have an opportunity to earn 383 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:58,199 Speaker 1: the ability to be on this team. There's another segment 384 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 1: of rookies that are have a little bit of a 385 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 1: window and that they're given an opportunity to show what 386 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:07,600 Speaker 1: they can do over these couple of days. So do 387 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 1: you want to have that group that's trying to impress 388 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,920 Speaker 1: right now go on a hundred miles an hour with 389 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 1: this group over here that's trying to impress, but then 390 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 1: also knows that they're gonna be here for training camp. 391 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 1: I don't want to have the two of these groups 392 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:27,440 Speaker 1: kind of mixing together, you know what I mean, Because 393 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,359 Speaker 1: sometimes you have guys that are a little out of 394 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 1: control from the group that doesn't have a contract, that's 395 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:36,919 Speaker 1: here on a tryout basis show something that's trying to 396 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,360 Speaker 1: show something in a limited window. And I totally appreciate 397 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:43,560 Speaker 1: that and respect that, but you've gotta be careful. You 398 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 1: have to limit I think the number of group drills 399 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:50,639 Speaker 1: that you do. You do more of the individual work, 400 00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 1: and it's a lot of classroom stuff to see how 401 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:58,919 Speaker 1: the retention is and um but physically, it's it's showing 402 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 1: them the expectation and it's it's getting them to work 403 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 1: in his shape. I just remember when you go back 404 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 1: and you mentioned Dante Fowler when he tours a c L. 405 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:15,880 Speaker 1: This was a very tough, demanding practice that Dante Fowler 406 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:20,439 Speaker 1: was getting winded and his legs were getting tired. And 407 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 1: I think that contributed to the a c L terror 408 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:27,399 Speaker 1: that he sustained in that practice because he wasn't conditioning, 409 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 1: conditioned where he needed to be. I truly believe that 410 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:33,159 Speaker 1: because I was watching him in practice, going this is 411 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,359 Speaker 1: not good. He's getting winded because he's going a hundred 412 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 1: miles an hour trying to impress I'm a first round pick. 413 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 1: I want to show everybody why I'm a first round pick. 414 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 1: And uh and then one bad step there goes. So 415 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:51,440 Speaker 1: this weekend, Tomorrow and Saturday, there will be a little 416 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 1: over forty players total that participating in this. Of course, 417 00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:57,640 Speaker 1: the draft picks, the undrafted players that have signed, as 418 00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 1: you mentioned, some tryout players are coming in as well. 419 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: Jimmy Smith's son is going to be a part of 420 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:07,000 Speaker 1: this this weekend, running back from Wyoming. He will be 421 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 1: here as well. Um there'll be some you know, some 422 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:13,439 Speaker 1: light team reps ten or fifteen plays a seven on seven, 423 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:15,640 Speaker 1: but it's mainly drills, as you said, getting the lay 424 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 1: of the land. How do you what's the operation of 425 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 1: the NFL for a lot of these guys who haven't 426 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 1: done it before, or you want to see athletically how 427 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 1: they move, you know, it's a firsthand look at some 428 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,640 Speaker 1: of these guys that are here on a tryout basis. Look, 429 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:34,240 Speaker 1: you know what your your draft picks are. I mean, 430 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:37,440 Speaker 1: you've done a ton of work on them. A lot 431 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:40,920 Speaker 1: of the the undrafted signed rookies you've done work on 432 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:44,160 Speaker 1: them as well. And then some of these tryouts you 433 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 1: probably haven't done quite as much work, or you don't 434 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:50,160 Speaker 1: know as much about some of them. I mean, you'd 435 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:54,719 Speaker 1: like to think that you're scouting department knows everything about everybody, 436 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:58,359 Speaker 1: but that's not the case sometimes And the reality is 437 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 1: that sometimes your evaluation is off, as we've seen with 438 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 1: the history of the draft overall, So you might end 439 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,480 Speaker 1: up having a very poor report on a guy that's 440 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:09,359 Speaker 1: coming in here on a tryout basis that when you 441 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:11,639 Speaker 1: see him in person, you're like, Wow, why why did 442 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 1: we only have him with a three point oh grade 443 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:16,920 Speaker 1: when he's moving around like he's a he's a five 444 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 1: point eight grade. Let's give him a chance, let's sign 445 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 1: him no contract. So it's a great opportunity for a 446 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,440 Speaker 1: lot of different reasons to get people acclimated, to start 447 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 1: to work them towards what the expectations are as far 448 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,640 Speaker 1: as the level of conditioning, the knowledge of the scheme, 449 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,399 Speaker 1: and then also getting to know some of these guys, 450 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 1: some of these guys that are in here on a 451 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:40,840 Speaker 1: tryout basis, do they fit your personality of your culture? Okay? 452 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 1: Are they the kind of people that you want to 453 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 1: bring in to when you're trying to flip the culture 454 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 1: in an organization. So it's it's it's gonna be very valuable, 455 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 1: very valuable. Couple of days. We'll come back in a moment. 456 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:56,199 Speaker 1: The offseason schedule o T A open practice for media 457 00:24:56,280 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 1: has been announced.

Then 498 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:26,479 Speaker 1: there's the three day mandatory veteran mini camp the following 499 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 1: week a Monday through Wednesday, June through so there will 500 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:35,720 Speaker 1: be six open veteran practices for the media in May 501 00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 1: and June. And uh so you got two for the rookies, 502 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:44,159 Speaker 1: which is this wee uh tomorrow and then Saturday and 503 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,639 Speaker 1: then Uh. What I kind of have a little bit 504 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 1: of an issue is is that, Look, this is a 505 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:52,399 Speaker 1: great exposure for your football team and a great opportunity 506 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:55,080 Speaker 1: to help the local media sell your franchise, I mean 507 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 1: sell tickets, I mean interest. And you have ten o 508 00:27:57,680 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 1: t a s and you have three of them open 509 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,879 Speaker 1: to the media. I think that that's not enough. I 510 00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:04,679 Speaker 1: think it should be more. Uh, the more conversation that 511 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:06,640 Speaker 1: you get about your football team, the better off you're 512 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 1: gonna be, I think. And uh, I mean you've generated 513 00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 1: a lot of positivity with the draft and free agency. 514 00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:14,960 Speaker 1: I mean, so I mean, why not take advantage of 515 00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 1: the opportunity there. Um, I just think it's I think 516 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 1: they're losing an opportunity there in my opinion. Now, what's 517 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 1: is there a balance of competitive advantage like not don't 518 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 1: want to give up too much or I mean there's 519 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 1: some things that you put in now you want people 520 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 1: to see, Like, well, I'm not saying open all ten 521 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,040 Speaker 1: of them up, even though that in the past there 522 00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:39,959 Speaker 1: has been all ten open. But I still think that 523 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:42,800 Speaker 1: there's a look, you have you have all looking when 524 00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:44,840 Speaker 1: you're trying to put in the meat and potatos. I mean, JP, 525 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 1: is there really that much secrecy and an O t 526 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 1: A to where you're developing this incredible scheme that's gonna 527 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:55,479 Speaker 1: be so different than anybody's ever seen in the National 528 00:28:55,480 --> 00:29:00,240 Speaker 1: Football League? Hell no, come on, I mean it's it's there, 529 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:03,640 Speaker 1: our our secrets. But I mean you're not You're not 530 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: gonna have the ability to be shrouded in secrecy in 531 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,560 Speaker 1: the all season and say, oh yeah, if we let 532 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 1: one O t A open, we're gonna let the cat 533 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 1: out of the bag. I mean, come on, it's football. 534 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 1: This is not rocket science. And uh and I think 535 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 1: that um. And here's the other thing. I think O 536 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:28,160 Speaker 1: t A s when they are are open, it doesn't 537 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 1: hurt anybody. It allows I think, relationships to be built 538 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 1: between UM and here. Here's one thing I've always been 539 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 1: a big believer in and I'll never forget this. When 540 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 1: I first came in the National Football League, when you 541 00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 1: had drills that were being viewed by members of the public, 542 00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:49,160 Speaker 1: we had opened. The first time I've experienced I ever 543 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:51,240 Speaker 1: had was when I was in New York and we 544 00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 1: had a training camp that was open to the public. 545 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 1: This was before the Jaguars even came to an existence. 546 00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 1: And you would back up a one on one drill, 547 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 1: whether it be passed rusher or run blocking or anything, 548 00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 1: and you would back it up into a group of 549 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 1: fans and then all of a sudden, where did your 550 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:12,320 Speaker 1: intensity level go to? It went higher because you knew 551 00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 1: people were watching. And I'm not saying that the media 552 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 1: is is you know, thousands of people, but I mean 553 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,120 Speaker 1: it's the more people and more eyeballs that are on 554 00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 1: your performance. I think the more I think intensity focus 555 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,600 Speaker 1: that sometimes players can get. And uh so, I don't know. 556 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:31,200 Speaker 1: I mean it's a I just think it's a great 557 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:34,280 Speaker 1: opportunity to have this football team be at the conversation 558 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 1: top of the conversation across a lot of different media platforms, 559 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:42,719 Speaker 1: and um, I think it should be more believe at that. 560 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 1: I'm curious, Um, you know, how much will the quarterback? 561 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 1: We heard him Doug Peterson talking about Lawrence there with 562 00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:55,959 Speaker 1: with rich eyes and yesterday, you know how much of 563 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:58,720 Speaker 1: the full new playbook do you get to? You get 564 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:01,160 Speaker 1: pieces at a time as the offseason goes. How do 565 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 1: you build up that the base level of knowledge of 566 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 1: this offense is as it all depends on the player 567 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 1: and how much he can handle. So I think that's 568 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 1: a big part of it. How much experience does he 569 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:17,600 Speaker 1: have with the terminology that you're using? Are you worrying 570 00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 1: about teaching terminology or you taking up to the next level? 571 00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:22,600 Speaker 1: You know? I mean when when you when I say 572 00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 1: the next level, you know, when you when you're in 573 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 1: college or um, you're taking classes, you know, like one O, one, Okay, 574 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 1: then the next level is a two hundred level and 575 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 1: then three level. So where is he adding the progression 576 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:39,720 Speaker 1: of understanding the schemes and the terminology? So how far 577 00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 1: can you take him or how deep can you take 578 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 1: him into the playbook based on what he's been able 579 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:51,800 Speaker 1: to learn already, And and that's always based on the individual. 580 00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:54,280 Speaker 1: And I think Trevor is very smart from everything that 581 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 1: I understand. He has a great retention. Um, he's extremely 582 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:01,920 Speaker 1: dill Jenny. He works hard. He doesn't just work in 583 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:05,960 Speaker 1: the building, which is what some players do. They work 584 00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:08,120 Speaker 1: only in the building when they leave here, they don't study, 585 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 1: and that I think is a major hindrance to that position. Specifically, 586 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 1: you have to have somebody who has wone to put 587 00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 1: the time in and the commitment to be able to 588 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 1: understand the playbook because the playbook is so complex for 589 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:24,960 Speaker 1: that position. Playing defensive line, JP. Look, it's like it's 590 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 1: grade one seriously playing offensive line. I'll give Basselli a 591 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:31,480 Speaker 1: little bit of a credit here. I mean he's fifth 592 00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 1: grade level. Wow, moving on up? Okay, um wide receivers, 593 00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 1: running backs, I mean, you know it's probably about the 594 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 1: same thing, but then once you get to quarterback. I 595 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 1: mean that's like master study. I mean seriously when I 596 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 1: say that mean because not only do they have to 597 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 1: understand what everybody on the offense is doing protections, but 598 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 1: then also understanding defenses, progressions and everything that goes along 599 00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 1: with running an offense. And so it's extremely complex and 600 00:32:57,600 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 1: it and it requires more than just punching a claw 601 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,240 Speaker 1: when you walk in this building and doing your work. 602 00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:05,080 Speaker 1: You have to take that work home with you. And 603 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:07,640 Speaker 1: that's something that Trevor has been committed to from what 604 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 1: I understand, And that's what you have to have for 605 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 1: somebody to play that position. You know what's going to happen. 606 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:15,880 Speaker 1: It always happens this time of year. O T. A S. 607 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 1: There's coverage of O. T. A S. Which is great, 608 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 1: that's the whole point as you're out there seeing guys 609 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 1: running around, but the um the overkill of you know, 610 00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:30,480 Speaker 1: this guy dropped this ball in an O t A 611 00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 1: practice And I don't think you're gonna cut the team 612 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 1: after watching some O t A practices, but there will 613 00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:39,120 Speaker 1: be probably some coverage that does. That's just kind of 614 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 1: how this the nature is right now on social media too. Well. 615 00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 1: I I think the biggest thing is is that you 616 00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:48,360 Speaker 1: with O t A S is that you're the camaraderie 617 00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 1: that you build, the chemistry that you build, the communication 618 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:54,360 Speaker 1: that you build, because communication is also something that has 619 00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:57,040 Speaker 1: to be built. It's just you can't assume that we're 620 00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 1: gonna be on the same page. JP. How many years 621 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:02,120 Speaker 1: have we've been working together now, okay, ten years that 622 00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 1: we've been working together, But we still have a conversation 623 00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:08,000 Speaker 1: before we go behind these microphones because that's what we do. 624 00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:12,000 Speaker 1: And and I think that the work has to be 625 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:16,839 Speaker 1: put in with players, especially in the National Football League, 626 00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:21,360 Speaker 1: because things are changing constantly. Rosters are changing, systems are changing, 627 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:26,239 Speaker 1: the way that the communication works between coaches. I mean, 628 00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 1: all of that stuff is changing, and so part part 629 00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 1: of the whole O T A. S is not just 630 00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:32,680 Speaker 1: you know, going out there and okay in playing quarterback 631 00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:34,839 Speaker 1: and we're learning to operate the huddle, I mean all 632 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:39,320 Speaker 1: of those things, but also the relationship that you're building 633 00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 1: with players to coach, coach, the player, coach to coach, 634 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:45,719 Speaker 1: player to player, staff to coach. I mean, all of 635 00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 1: these things are being built so that when you do 636 00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:53,080 Speaker 1: hit the regular season and things become extremely difficult and 637 00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:57,279 Speaker 1: much higher paced, and the expectation levels get cranked up 638 00:34:57,320 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 1: to the top of the ceiling, you can function and 639 00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:04,239 Speaker 1: you can operate within that environment that all of that 640 00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:07,719 Speaker 1: stuff is built at this time of year. We're back 641 00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:10,800 Speaker 1: in a moment a look around the National Football League 642 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:15,320 Speaker 1: as we get into rookie Minicamp weekend for the Jaguars, 643 00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 1: and that will take a look if you're watching this program, 644 00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:21,240 Speaker 1: which is available on Jaguars dot Com on the Jags 645 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 1: social channels, will take a look at the Football Performance 646 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:27,480 Speaker 1: Center construction.

Yeah, well, I'm looking 693 00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:06,200 Speaker 1: forward to seeing um that whole area developed. It's a 694 00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:09,319 Speaker 1: it's a long time coming, I will say that. I 695 00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:13,680 Speaker 1: just I just remember in when I when I first 696 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:17,040 Speaker 1: came here with the expansion team, and it was one 697 00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:19,160 Speaker 1: of the brave souls and free agency to come to 698 00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:24,040 Speaker 1: Jacksonville at that time, was coming down the street there 699 00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:27,320 Speaker 1: and and looking and seeing all that vacant land going. Man, 700 00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 1: this has got to be developed at some point. There's 701 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:33,919 Speaker 1: gonna be a lot of opportunity here and and here 702 00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 1: we are a long time ago. It's a long time ago, man, 703 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 1: And uh really nothing's been done with that. And so 704 00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:42,839 Speaker 1: I look forward to the to the day when when 705 00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:47,759 Speaker 1: they start doing something down there to bring a vibrant downtown. 706 00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 1: Because you know, here's the thing that list that we 707 00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:52,680 Speaker 1: went through at the very top of the top of 708 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:56,640 Speaker 1: the show talking about destinations and places that you want 709 00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 1: to go to. What was the common theme of what 710 00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:06,240 Speaker 1: I was talking about with all these city entertainment, downtown attractions, 711 00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:09,520 Speaker 1: things to do, things to keep you there. That's the 712 00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:12,439 Speaker 1: beauty of Nashville. It's one of the great reasons why 713 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:15,440 Speaker 1: Kansas City is fantastic. Even though the stadium is not 714 00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:20,320 Speaker 1: that close to downtown. You wish it were. Uh, Indianapolis, 715 00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:24,319 Speaker 1: which with the stadium and then the downtown is is fantastic. 716 00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:28,319 Speaker 1: I mean, those are the places that become destinations where 717 00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:32,359 Speaker 1: people want to come and see what you have. And 718 00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 1: so I hope that at some point that our city 719 00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:39,040 Speaker 1: can get to the point to where other people around 720 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:42,000 Speaker 1: the league are are looking at the schedule when it 721 00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:45,480 Speaker 1: comes out and goes, oh, we gotta go to Jacksonville. 722 00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:48,239 Speaker 1: Finally it's on our schedule. Let's go, you know what 723 00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:50,200 Speaker 1: I mean, Because I mean, you gotta give him a 724 00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:53,280 Speaker 1: reason besides just a ball game. Yeah, and the beach, 725 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:56,000 Speaker 1: which is great. Yeah, but yeah, but there's gonna be 726 00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:58,719 Speaker 1: some other stuff. Gotta give him some other stuff. That's right. 727 00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:01,359 Speaker 1: And and it's kind trending that way of course down 728 00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:03,440 Speaker 1: here with everything going on around the stadium and then 729 00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:05,799 Speaker 1: on the other side of downtown, the Brooklyn area has 730 00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:11,279 Speaker 1: really come up lately and development we got ways to 731 00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:13,719 Speaker 1: go working on. At least they're they're starting the thing, 732 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:16,120 Speaker 1: which is a good thing. Let's go around the National 733 00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:19,960 Speaker 1: Football League. We touched on this earlier, but Tom Brady 734 00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:22,839 Speaker 1: agreeing with Fox Sports apparently for when his career ends 735 00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:27,120 Speaker 1: ten years, three seventy five million dollars to do something 736 00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:31,600 Speaker 1: he's never done before. He's never announced the football game. No, 737 00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:34,680 Speaker 1: he hasn't. And uh, and look, there's been some guys 738 00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:39,120 Speaker 1: that have retired and gone to the booth, so to speak, 739 00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:42,759 Speaker 1: that haven't done a great job. Joe Montana didn't do 740 00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:46,439 Speaker 1: a great job. Ronnie Lott, and I love Ronnie, didn't 741 00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:49,960 Speaker 1: do a great job. Some guys have a knack for 742 00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:56,160 Speaker 1: Tradman fantastic, I mean fantastic, Baselly fantastic. I mean there's 743 00:40:56,200 --> 00:41:00,960 Speaker 1: guys that have a natural ability that they can analyze, entertain, 744 00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:05,120 Speaker 1: and inform. And you have to be able to be 745 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:08,799 Speaker 1: committed to understanding what it's all about. And look, Tom 746 00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:12,919 Speaker 1: Brady has been a great worker throughout his career. That's 747 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:17,200 Speaker 1: why he is so great. And my expectation for him 748 00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:20,399 Speaker 1: is that he will work extremely hard to be good 749 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:24,480 Speaker 1: at it. I would be disappointed if if anything else happens, 750 00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:27,759 Speaker 1: but it doesn't mean he's gonna be great. But my 751 00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:30,600 Speaker 1: expectation is that he will find a way to be 752 00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:34,240 Speaker 1: great and I look forward to hearing him. Uh. Tony 753 00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:36,839 Speaker 1: Romo is a guy that works very hard at it, 754 00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:39,600 Speaker 1: and I think he's pretty good. Sometimes he's annoying because 755 00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:42,440 Speaker 1: he keeps guessing like that's part of what he's supposed 756 00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:45,120 Speaker 1: to do. It's not always about guessing, it's about informing 757 00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:48,560 Speaker 1: and uh. But there's guys that are really good that 758 00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:51,080 Speaker 1: that did what what they've done for a long period 759 00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:54,080 Speaker 1: of time in the National Football League and have become great, 760 00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:59,960 Speaker 1: great analysts, commentators, whatever. You want to consider that Joe, 761 00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:03,440 Speaker 1: you you'll remember this, that was Joe Nameth as an analyst. 762 00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:05,879 Speaker 1: Did he do like Monday Night Football Front? Very good? 763 00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:09,520 Speaker 1: Didn't last long? Yeah, Joe was not good at all. 764 00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:14,200 Speaker 1: I don't remember him doing I thought Nameth did Monday 765 00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:18,040 Speaker 1: Night for a minute, but not long. No, it didn't 766 00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:22,560 Speaker 1: last because that guy's got personality, obviously, but it just 767 00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:25,359 Speaker 1: didn't work in that So I mean, look, I mean 768 00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:27,640 Speaker 1: it's just because you have personality, he doesn't make you 769 00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:32,280 Speaker 1: good at doing a broadcasters duties. I mean that's there 770 00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:37,080 Speaker 1: requires certain things. There's some guys that are great in 771 00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:40,120 Speaker 1: studio and there are some guys that in a in 772 00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:44,440 Speaker 1: a game setting, are fantastic. So, I mean, everybody has 773 00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:46,480 Speaker 1: a talent, I think, and you've got to find a 774 00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:49,320 Speaker 1: way to bring that talent to the forefront and also 775 00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 1: to find out what that talent is to be able 776 00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:54,680 Speaker 1: to make sure that it is it is highlighted to 777 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:59,279 Speaker 1: some extent. Everybody's chasing the the John Madden. It doesn't 778 00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:01,359 Speaker 1: get better than that. It will never get well. And look, 779 00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:04,920 Speaker 1: I'll say this about John standard. John Well, He's John 780 00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:07,280 Speaker 1: was a gold standard. And and for guys that played 781 00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:10,359 Speaker 1: the game, I mean John was awesome. And not only 782 00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:15,160 Speaker 1: did John give you great analysis, but he entertained with 783 00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:17,840 Speaker 1: the way his excitement and in the way that he 784 00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:22,360 Speaker 1: presented the game was incredible. His big picture analysis was 785 00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:24,040 Speaker 1: was I mean right up there. And I think today 786 00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:27,560 Speaker 1: I think Chris collins Worth does an amazing job at 787 00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:30,960 Speaker 1: big picture analysis. But there were times as far as 788 00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:35,080 Speaker 1: game analysis that John Madden was off, I mean off. 789 00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:37,399 Speaker 1: I mean sometimes I'd be watching and I sit there 790 00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:39,319 Speaker 1: and listen to what he was the play that he 791 00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:41,840 Speaker 1: was breaking down. I was going, John, That's not what happened. 792 00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:46,680 Speaker 1: But he was so good and entertaining for the most part, 793 00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:51,720 Speaker 1: and his big picture analysis was awesome. And JP Boom. 794 00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:55,239 Speaker 1: I mean those things that he did as part of 795 00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:58,160 Speaker 1: his analysis in the in the Tell Straighter. I mean 796 00:43:58,239 --> 00:44:01,280 Speaker 1: he was a maestro. He could relate to anybody football 797 00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:04,000 Speaker 1: fan or not and get them to have the TV 798 00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:09,360 Speaker 1: on that stage, talk to talk. Some early announced games 799 00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:12,240 Speaker 1: by the league. The official announcement tonight at eight o'clock 800 00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:16,680 Speaker 1: Eastern time of the schedule. The week to Monday Night 801 00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:19,719 Speaker 1: Football doubleheader announced the Titans and the Bills at seven 802 00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:23,320 Speaker 1: fifteen on ESPN and then on ABC at eight thirty. 803 00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:25,799 Speaker 1: That week it's the Vikings and the Eagles. Week four, 804 00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:28,440 Speaker 1: the Chiefs and the Bucks play on Sunday Night Football 805 00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:31,120 Speaker 1: in a game that should be the Homes and Brady, 806 00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:33,799 Speaker 1: and then we tend the Cowboys and the Packers. Mike 807 00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:37,880 Speaker 1: McCarthy returns to lambeau Field in a national game on Fox. 808 00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:42,959 Speaker 1: There are three Christmas Day games same schedule as Thanksgiving. 809 00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:49,640 Speaker 1: Christmas is a Sunday, so in lieu of all games 810 00:44:49,640 --> 00:44:51,920 Speaker 1: on Christmas Day, they're doing it like they do Thanksgiving, 811 00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:55,040 Speaker 1: three one in each window. And then most of the 812 00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:57,279 Speaker 1: bulk of the games that week will be on Saturday, 813 00:44:57,360 --> 00:45:02,759 Speaker 1: Christmas Eve instead of Christmas Day, So that's interesting. Of 814 00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:05,279 Speaker 1: course the International Series games have been announced as so 815 00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:07,960 Speaker 1: anyone I was talking about the schedule, about what you 816 00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:10,719 Speaker 1: look for in the schedule. Okay, are we gonna be home? 817 00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:15,840 Speaker 1: Are we gonna be away on Christmas weekend? Right? Yeah, 818 00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:18,839 Speaker 1: that's right, because it was a couple of years ago 819 00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:22,880 Speaker 1: or was it seventeen, went to the West coast like 820 00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:26,879 Speaker 1: Christmas Eve, right, played in San Francisco, got smoked, and 821 00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:29,320 Speaker 1: then I had to come back with the Santa Claus. 822 00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:33,040 Speaker 1: The The old rule of thumb is that the NFL 823 00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:38,240 Speaker 1: knows no holidays. It doesn't. I mean, it's the sport 824 00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:42,760 Speaker 1: is part. No Sundays and Mondays and Thursdays and Saturdays 825 00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:45,759 Speaker 1: late in the season. That's it. It doesn't matter if 826 00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:53,279 Speaker 1: it's Christmas, Hanukah, Thanksgiving, New Year's, it doesn't matter. There's 827 00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:57,919 Speaker 1: no holidays in football. There's no crying in football either. 828 00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:02,720 Speaker 1: There's no holidays. No, there's crying in football. The Bears 829 00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:06,120 Speaker 1: said goodbye to Nick Foles last week. They say hello 830 00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:09,800 Speaker 1: to Jacksonville native and Bartram Trail product Nathan Peterman for 831 00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:12,960 Speaker 1: a one year deal. Justin fields Trevor Simion or there 832 00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:17,279 Speaker 1: Peterman and his career. Unfortunately, three touchdowns and twelve interceptions 833 00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:19,520 Speaker 1: with his time with the Bills and the Raiders. But 834 00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:22,360 Speaker 1: good for him, Jacksonville guy is still getting a shot. Yeah, 835 00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:27,200 Speaker 1: good for him. Now the speculation has been out there 836 00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:30,840 Speaker 1: a little bit, could Nick Foles come to Jacksonville because 837 00:46:31,040 --> 00:46:36,920 Speaker 1: of Peterson? I don't see it. I don't either. I 838 00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:40,040 Speaker 1: don't see it. No, I don't see it either. I 839 00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:43,840 Speaker 1: don't see it. So that ship has sailed, I believe, maybe, 840 00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:46,080 Speaker 1: maybe not. I mean, I'm not I don't know for sure. 841 00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:48,480 Speaker 1: I haven't talked to Doug Peterson about it either. I 842 00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:51,760 Speaker 1: don't think that that's gonna happen. But then then again, 843 00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:56,200 Speaker 1: what do I know. Adam Schefter of ESPN reporting just 844 00:46:56,239 --> 00:47:00,520 Speaker 1: a few minutes ago that Rapaho Sheriff in the Colorado 845 00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:04,440 Speaker 1: the Arepo County, They're announced that Broncos wide receiver Jerry 846 00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:07,160 Speaker 1: Judy is being held at the county jail on charges 847 00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:11,800 Speaker 1: of second degree criminal tampering with a domestic violence enhancer 848 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:16,480 Speaker 1: MS demeanor. He's on a no bond hold. He's innocent 849 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:19,920 Speaker 1: until proven guilty, so you might have to stay in 850 00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:22,919 Speaker 1: until he sees a judge whenever that is. Yeah, that's 851 00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:28,040 Speaker 1: that's breaking. This afternoon. Innocent until proven guilty, but not 852 00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:32,360 Speaker 1: a good thing if you know, look, Denver Broncos, a 853 00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:38,600 Speaker 1: good young receiver, new quarterback, new coach, new general manager, 854 00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:43,920 Speaker 1: and uh, that's not the kind of momentum builder that 855 00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:47,920 Speaker 1: you want to have happening in May. So it's been 856 00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:50,520 Speaker 1: a busy offseason for the Denver Broncos. New head coach, 857 00:47:50,600 --> 00:47:54,200 Speaker 1: new quarterback, this going on, I mean, it's a lot happening. 858 00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:57,200 Speaker 1: It was pretty interesting this week and that I don't 859 00:47:57,239 --> 00:47:59,080 Speaker 1: know if you did you have to see the some 860 00:47:59,280 --> 00:48:03,040 Speaker 1: of Paton Andning's comments and John Elway's comments because there's 861 00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:06,239 Speaker 1: so much going on with the Denver Broncos, and that 862 00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:13,480 Speaker 1: the first of all, the Russell Wilson trade, the change 863 00:48:13,480 --> 00:48:18,359 Speaker 1: in coaching staffs, got general manager John Elway, who has 864 00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:21,879 Speaker 1: essentially been an advisory role to the general manager there 865 00:48:21,880 --> 00:48:24,320 Speaker 1: because he's the one who named that general manager recently. 866 00:48:25,239 --> 00:48:28,959 Speaker 1: And then Peyton Manning is uh, could Peyton Manning, could 867 00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:32,160 Speaker 1: John Elway, either one of these two guys be involved 868 00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:34,760 Speaker 1: in the new ownership Because the team is for sale, 869 00:48:36,080 --> 00:48:39,240 Speaker 1: the reported amount of money is an excess of five 870 00:48:39,360 --> 00:48:42,440 Speaker 1: billion of what that could sell for one of the 871 00:48:42,560 --> 00:48:45,920 Speaker 1: Walton heirs is one of the prospective buyers and was 872 00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:50,600 Speaker 1: just recently in Denver touring the facility. And uh, if 873 00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:56,520 Speaker 1: he does buy the Denver Broncos h And I don't 874 00:48:56,520 --> 00:48:59,759 Speaker 1: remember his first name, that Walton, but he would be 875 00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:06,480 Speaker 1: um the NFL's richest owner, surpassing David Tepper for net worth. 876 00:49:06,520 --> 00:49:08,720 Speaker 1: I want to say that the Walton air is worth 877 00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:13,240 Speaker 1: like a hundred fifty plus billion, hundred seventy plus billion 878 00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:18,680 Speaker 1: dollars something like that JP, which um is a large 879 00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:22,680 Speaker 1: amount of money. But on top of that JP, the 880 00:49:22,800 --> 00:49:25,960 Speaker 1: NFL ownership rules are so strict. It's not like they 881 00:49:26,040 --> 00:49:29,719 Speaker 1: can have a lot of different groups buying it because 882 00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:32,520 Speaker 1: they have to be able to sustain or to satisfy 883 00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:35,720 Speaker 1: some of the requirements for ownership in the National Football League, 884 00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:38,400 Speaker 1: which are very stringent and are becoming a little bit 885 00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:41,760 Speaker 1: more difficult to attain because of the value the franchises 886 00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:45,200 Speaker 1: have become so large. You have it. That's our look 887 00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:48,319 Speaker 1: around the National Football League or thanks to Joe Fortunado, 888 00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:51,239 Speaker 1: Brent Reaverer Logs.
