I get the stuff had gotten turned 15 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:07,039 Speaker 1: on by our owner by shod you know, so um, 16 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 1: I kind of order that and probably really dark roast. 17 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I like it dark and strong, Yeah, exactly. 18 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 1: Can't get it on the open market. Contraband don't don't 19 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:21,319 Speaker 1: start rumors. That's all. We got enough going on coach 20 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 1: houses this week, week on with everything going on, with 21 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 1: Jalen injuries being better. Yeah, I think I think, you know, 22 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,319 Speaker 1: I go back to, um, you know, as as the 23 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:31,679 Speaker 1: head coach, you're gonna have to deal with a lot 24 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: of things and that's expected, and what your goal is 25 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 1: is to try to make sure that your players and 26 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,560 Speaker 1: your coaches are really you know, focused on the task 27 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 1: in hand, knowing that, you know, there's a lot of 28 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,399 Speaker 1: people that that can potentially pull you away from that, 29 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 1: and it's not that they're trying to. They just want 30 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 1: information of hey, how do you feel, how's it going, 31 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 1: what's you know, what do you feel about this situation? 32 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 1: So but I think you know, overall that the coaches 33 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 1: and the players have done a very good job, you know, 34 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 1: being able to focus and concentrate. Um, you know, obviously 35 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 1: with the trade earlier in the week, and then you know, 36 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 1: obviously you're working. You know, you always work. We're pretty healthy, 37 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 1: but there's a couple of you know, guys that have 38 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 1: banged up and you're going you know through that that's 39 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 1: a normal situation. So I think that, um, you know, 40 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,079 Speaker 1: I'm happy with the way everybody's handled it and we're 41 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,679 Speaker 1: focused and now it comes back to having a great 42 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 1: day today. And then making sure that you know it's 43 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 1: like everything else in this business. And I keep trying 44 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 1: to remind everyone it's a performance based business, which means 45 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 1: really during the week you're preparing and you're doing all 46 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,680 Speaker 1: that stuff, but you you really have to hit on 47 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 1: all cylinders when you play that game on Sunday. That's 48 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 1: what That's when it really counts. Have you noticed over 49 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: the course of your career that there are moments where 50 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 1: a team sort of galvanizes, you know, gets together on things, 51 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,360 Speaker 1: And now the question about Jalen goes away. No one 52 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 1: has to ask that anymore. In nineties around here, the 53 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: Andre Rising got cut and the team had been kind 54 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 1: of bouncing around, and then all of a sudden, at 55 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 1: that moment, it was like, okay, this is performance based business, 56 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 1: like you said, and you could just feel everything changed 57 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 1: and they went on a winning streak there. And I'm 58 00:02:58,280 --> 00:02:59,919 Speaker 1: not saying that Jalen trade is a winning streak, but 59 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: I kind of saw it as a moment where sort 60 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 1: of galvanized the team and brought it together. Yeah, I 61 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: think I think you could potentially have those. Um. I 62 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 1: think with the way, in my opinion, the way the 63 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:17,640 Speaker 1: game has changed, and you know the business side of things. Uh, 64 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,359 Speaker 1: I think there's a greater I don't know what the 65 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,639 Speaker 1: right word is, a greater understanding or a greater awareness 66 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 1: of of what the business side is in the locker 67 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 1: room where I can only go back to my time 68 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 1: where it was, you know, there wasn't a lot of money, 69 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 1: There wasn't a lot of business, and you were just 70 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 1: trying to hang on just to play and the the team. 71 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 1: You know, what I'm saying was it was a bigger, 72 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 1: a bigger thing. And then not to say that the 73 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 1: team is not big now, but you know, I think 74 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: I think we all understand it's it's there's a lot 75 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 1: of money, there's a lot of things going on, and 76 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: you know, I think you know, the goal is to 77 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: always try to find something, you know, as the head coach, 78 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 1: to to to rally your team around. This situation is 79 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 1: not the one that I would um, you know, obviously 80 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: it was a tough situation for everyone. He was a 81 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 1: good teammate, he was a really good player, and um, 82 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: you know, the business end of it, he's not here. 83 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 1: Players for the most part, attend to be able to 84 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 1: concentrate through these things because they're working on their own jobs. 85 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,160 Speaker 1: But the one person who might have been effected by 86 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 1: it was Trey Herndon obviously having to wonder if he 87 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:24,039 Speaker 1: was getting ready to start that weekend, how is he 88 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,600 Speaker 1: handled the whole situation and your confidence live on him 89 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 1: going forward? Well, I've always had confidence in in Trey. 90 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 1: I think you know, anyone that's you know, makes the roster, 91 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,719 Speaker 1: you have to have confidence and that you know he's 92 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:36,840 Speaker 1: gonna be able to go out there and perform withever 93 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 1: role you have for him. That's the reason why he's 94 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: made the team. And I think you know with Trey Um, 95 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:48,720 Speaker 1: he's he's the part that gets you know, underlooked. Was 96 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: you know, is he going to knocking during the week 97 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 1: and that and that comes with with all players not 98 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 1: we're not just talking about this, and you know the 99 00:04:56,160 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 1: person that is behind them. Um really has to do 100 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 1: a good job preparing himself like he's always going to 101 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 1: be able to play. And I think you know, Trey 102 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 1: has said a great example Um, you know, and there's 103 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 1: been a lot of good examples this year. Um Gardner 104 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: coming in after ten plays and and playing for Nick 105 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,280 Speaker 1: and knowing the game plan that I know people say 106 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,040 Speaker 1: that's his job. He should know it, but but that 107 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,839 Speaker 1: doesn't always happen, you know. So I think that's a 108 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,279 Speaker 1: great example for young players. I think with Trey, is 109 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: he gonna play this week or you're not, and always 110 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 1: getting himself mentally ready to play and going out there 111 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 1: and giving us everything he hasn't and playing well. You know. Um, 112 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 1: that's a great example. So I think things are going 113 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 1: on during the season, you know, as we grow and 114 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 1: as we need to get better. There's no doubt about it. 115 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,279 Speaker 1: But I think there's some good examples of you know, 116 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:47,119 Speaker 1: this team progressing and getting better. There's also different levels 117 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: of ready. Right in Gardner's case, you could looked at 118 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,159 Speaker 1: the playbook and sort of know the offense, but to 119 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:55,280 Speaker 1: really be ready is a different thing. Yeah, I mean 120 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 1: to go out there. It goes back to the same 121 00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: thing and perform. I mean, you know, you can bring 122 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 1: anyone in um too, you know, to coach, to to 123 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:07,920 Speaker 1: learn a playbook, to teach a playbook. So what's the difference. 124 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,720 Speaker 1: You know, the difference is, you know it's gonna be 125 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:12,720 Speaker 1: that talent. You know, whether a coach is going to 126 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 1: be motivating, inspiring a player, getting into player at his best, 127 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 1: really trying to make sure that he can understand it, 128 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 1: because everyone learns differently. And then for the player, you know, 129 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 1: you can take anyone and they can look at a 130 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 1: playbook say okay, I have this, I had this, but 131 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: then actually go out there and do it. You know, 132 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 1: that's what separates everyone, which is a talent. So you know, 133 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: there are a lot of factors that go into it. 134 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 1: You were saying on Monday that you felt like Josh 135 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 1: Oliver had a good chance to play this week full 136 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,360 Speaker 1: participant in practice yesterday. If he does end up being 137 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 1: able to play on Sunday, what do you think, how 138 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: do you think he's going to play with not playing 139 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,160 Speaker 1: it all this season? Yeah, I don't know. I mean 140 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,840 Speaker 1: it's a good it's a good question. I think that 141 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 1: you know, you know, your expectations obviously are to him 142 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: to go out there and and and you have you know, 143 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 1: do everything extremely well, and but you know, you really 144 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 1: and you know, so it's kind of like that, Hey, 145 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,840 Speaker 1: we'll see. I'm I'm happy to see that we've got 146 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 1: him now to a point where we can put him 147 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 1: out on that field, which I think that's that's the 148 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: first step. And then now I think the next step 149 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 1: of saying, okay, let's see where you are. Because for 150 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 1: the difference with him and a lot of other players, 151 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 1: I've never seen him play like In other words, I've 152 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 1: he didn't participate in our scrimmage, he didn't participate in 153 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:26,240 Speaker 1: the preseason. So I don't know, but I did. I 154 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 1: do know this. I did like what I what, I 155 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 1: what I was able to look at when he was 156 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 1: in college. I mean, that's why he's here, you know. 157 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 1: So he did a great job. So uh again, I 158 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: don't I go in there and saying, hey, listen, I 159 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 1: want to see where he's at. I want to see 160 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 1: him do his best, and I want to see you know, 161 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 1: where we're on. I think from there that kind of 162 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 1: creates a line for you, you you know where all right, 163 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: this is what we need to improve, honest, what we 164 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 1: need to get better because right now we're trying to 165 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 1: prove everything. Well, let's go see what he can do 166 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 1: when he when he's out there. About your quarterback, you know, 167 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 1: we talked week to week, you know, can he do 168 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 1: it again? Can he do it again? And then after 169 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 1: this week we have to talk about a rebound performance. 170 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 1: You know, can he take it back to where it was? 171 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: What have you seen from him on the practice field 172 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 1: this week and what are your thoughts about how he 173 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 1: handles adversity. Well, I think we're gonna see I think 174 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 1: it goes back to the same thing. I mean, you know, 175 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 1: you you know, he's he's gone through a lot of tests, 176 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: you know, ten plays being thrown in the game, you know, 177 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: the following week coming you know, coming back and being 178 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 1: a starter, and then you have to go to a 179 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: short week. You know, then um, all of a sudden, 180 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 1: you play a team and they're gonna throw a couple 181 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: of different things that you maybe haven't prepared for you've seen, 182 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 1: you know, in your career, and you know, now you're 183 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 1: coming off a game where you know you didn't play 184 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:36,680 Speaker 1: as well as you wanted, and you know, how are 185 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: you going to attack this week? How are you going 186 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: to do that? You know, And we're a big part 187 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: of that as the coaches. I mean, we've got to 188 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 1: make sure that you know, we're giving him all these 189 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 1: things where he does feel comfortable. Um, you know if 190 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,559 Speaker 1: if if teams play us in a different coverage and 191 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,680 Speaker 1: situations like that. So we've done a good job of 192 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:54,679 Speaker 1: that this week and I watched them, you know, as 193 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 1: the week, you know, progresses, Like any player, you know 194 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:01,679 Speaker 1: your confidence should you know pro rest meaning that you know, hey, 195 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 1: you don't have a good feel, and as the week 196 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:05,200 Speaker 1: goes on, you're like, you have a great feel, and 197 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 1: then they're whatever things that you're not sure about. We 198 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: need as coaches, we need to take out of the 199 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 1: game plan and that's way we can focus on the 200 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 1: things that we have, because as coaches we always have 201 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 1: more than enough. That's the one of the problems with 202 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 1: all of us. Cincinnati own six team pretty banged up. 203 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: You don't want to say they're a bad team. And 204 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 1: I know it's tough to win in the NFL, but 205 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 1: should the Jaguars win this game on Sunday? Are you 206 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: confident in that? I think it's you know, every coach 207 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 1: you know, it's funny you get these questions all the time. 208 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 1: You know, what do you think your record is going 209 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 1: to be this year? What are you think you're gonna do? 210 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 1: You know, I mean every time we take the field, 211 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 1: we take out there, we take the field to go 212 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 1: win and win a game. Um, you know, we know 213 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,199 Speaker 1: that it's going to be difficult no matter who you're 214 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,839 Speaker 1: playing this league, because like I said, when when those 215 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 1: teams leave the locker room and the national anthems played, 216 00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,439 Speaker 1: and the coin toss is done and that ball is 217 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,680 Speaker 1: kicked off, there's not a guy on that field that's 218 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 1: thinking about a record. You know, this team's owing this, 219 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 1: so this team is this and that, and you know 220 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 1: the competition is high. So you know, obviously, you know, 221 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:13,840 Speaker 1: we were playing to win, and we play, you know, 222 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 1: we practice to win, play to win, and we're gonna 223 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: go up there and win a game against a team 224 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:20,959 Speaker 1: that is a whole lot better than their record says. 225 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,120 Speaker 1: And you know they've had a lot of injuries and 226 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 1: they've gone through it. But you know a lot of 227 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 1: times when teams like that, it's just like anything else. 228 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 1: You know, I've learned, you know from from actual true experience. 229 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 1: If you back back something up into a corner, it 230 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 1: will attack you, you know, and and a lot of times, 231 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 1: and in this day and age that you know, when 232 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 1: you when you're beat up and stuff like that, and 233 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:43,640 Speaker 1: you have good players on your team, you're gonna rally 234 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:45,719 Speaker 1: and and get get the most out of them. So 235 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 1: you know, our expectations is seeing their best and and 236 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 1: our expectations to be able to play at our best 237 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 1: and you know, try to do whatever we can to 238 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 1: win the game. You talked on Monday a little bit 239 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 1: about the liking what you're starting to see from the 240 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 1: offensive line in terms of running game. I what is 241 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 1: it that you're seeing and how confident are you that 242 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 1: are you going forward? Yeah? I think you know, I 243 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 1: just I just see overall, uh, growth in the group. 244 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 1: You know, not you know, it's not it's not going 245 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 1: as fast as I would like. But I think that's 246 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 1: that's that's why you're called a coach. You know, you're 247 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 1: never gonna progress as fast as you'd like. Um, I 248 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 1: think some of those younger players, you know, like what 249 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 1: you want. And you know, I think he's learned. I 250 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 1: mean he's gone through pretty much a murderer's row of 251 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,200 Speaker 1: of defensive ends and and playing against him, I think 252 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 1: that you know, you know, he's he's learned a lot. 253 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, you play against these guys, you're 254 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 1: gonna you're gonna learn a lot and then you know, 255 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: can you apply it? And he's a guy that's been 256 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: you know, very professional and doesn't seem even though at 257 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: times you can see and his play that he may 258 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 1: play like a young player. His demeanor around the buildings 259 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:55,319 Speaker 1: not that way. And and and then with Cam havening't 260 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 1: been out for a long period of time, you know, 261 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:00,199 Speaker 1: last week you saw at least I did it. I 262 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,720 Speaker 1: was able to see him better technically, you know, which 263 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 1: is one of the things I've always you know, I 264 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 1: get concerned about when the players out for a long 265 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,319 Speaker 1: period of time because, like I said before, it's easy 266 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 1: to say, Okay, this is what your footwork should be. 267 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 1: It's kind of like, you know, dancing, right, But the 268 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: only problem is in dancing, no one's trying to rip 269 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:20,560 Speaker 1: your head off, you know. You know what I'm saying 270 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 1: and get through you. Yeah, so you know that stuff. 271 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: That's where it causes problems with the techniques. And I 272 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:29,679 Speaker 1: thought that Cam is doing a better job and he'll 273 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 1: continue to get better. And I think, you know, we've 274 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:33,679 Speaker 1: got two guards, you know, with with Will and a 275 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 1: J playing right, I think we're getting good production out 276 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 1: of them. I think they're both playing, you know, at 277 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 1: a good level. Lender and and Andrew are And the 278 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 1: only thing that's happening is that, hey, when we do 279 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 1: have a breakdown, it's usually one you know, but then 280 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:50,480 Speaker 1: that breakdown has really been critical to us, and that's 281 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 1: where we need to do a good job where we're 282 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 1: in sync all the time, and that's that's always been 283 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 1: the goal, and those guys are working hard at it, 284 00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:00,199 Speaker 1: and um, you know, I feel I feel good about, 285 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 1: you know, where we're gonna where we're going to be 286 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,360 Speaker 1: with that group. Since you talk about the offensive line, 287 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 1: just a quick thought on Gina Atkins, who I think 288 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 1: because they're owing six, they're not not A lot of 289 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,599 Speaker 1: attention is paid to the talent on their team, but 290 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:14,960 Speaker 1: that guy in particular, for a number of years, he's 291 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 1: like Aaron Donald. He's real, he's real, handful in the 292 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 1: middle of everything. Yeah, I think, you know, when I 293 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 1: think about Cincinnati having competed against him for you know, 294 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:24,720 Speaker 1: obviously quite a quite a long time, I always think, 295 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 1: you know, both those players came in in two thousand 296 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 1: and ten, you know, Gino and Carlos Dunlop, and I 297 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 1: don't I don't know if if Dunlop is gonna play, 298 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 1: but I think I think when you think of Cincinnati 299 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 1: and you're going to Cincinnati, you think of those two 300 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 1: guys as the cornerstones, you know, that have really been 301 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 1: there for a long period of time, and it's been 302 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 1: really good players. Um, you know Dunlop when he's playing, 303 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 1: he's probably one of the longest players, meaning you know, 304 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 1: long arms, long legs, big. I mean, you walk on 305 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:51,719 Speaker 1: the field, he's the first person you're gonna notice. And 306 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: it is a good football player. I think, Gino, what 307 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 1: you see as you see a guy that has you know, quickness, 308 00:13:56,640 --> 00:14:00,439 Speaker 1: savvy technique and is really just really if a goal 309 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 1: to move and you know, a guy that can make 310 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:05,439 Speaker 1: some plays if if you don't get you know, your 311 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 1: full body on him and doing those things. So, um, 312 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 1: you know I I put those guys in the same 313 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 1: type of category of of like Calais, you know guys 314 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 1: that and I don't know them personally, but they play hard, 315 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 1: they work hard, they're they're you know, durable, they're available. 316 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 1: You know, they've done all those things and and and 317 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 1: and in fact, really good careers. And I'm still playing 318 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 1: at a really good level already. Coach best leuct this 319 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 1: week where I won't mention the Yankees and put you 320 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 1: in a bad mood, all right, he warned me.

Alright, 355 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,680 Speaker 1: Let's get into big things, shall we. Big thing one 356 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,959 Speaker 1: is playoffs. If they are going to win on Sunday, 357 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:11,959 Speaker 1: you continue to talk about the playoffs and whether it's 358 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,480 Speaker 1: a possibility if you lose on Sunday, you kind of 359 00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:16,639 Speaker 1: have to change the narrative of the season basically, and 360 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 1: you can't really be talking about a postseason really at 361 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:21,400 Speaker 1: all if you don't get it done on Sunday. Big 362 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 1: thing too is will he go? No, no, no, not 363 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,120 Speaker 1: Jalen Ramsey, not anymore. We're not asking this question anymore 364 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,760 Speaker 1: on Friday's of whether Jalen will play. We're asking this 365 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 1: week if tight end Josh Oliver will play. And you 366 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 1: just turn a head coach Maran earlier. It sounds pretty good, 367 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 1: a high possibility will see him on the field on Sunday. 368 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:41,479 Speaker 1: And big thing three is bad Bangles. Is this team 369 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:44,879 Speaker 1: bad or is they really just banged up? Injury bug? 370 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:47,680 Speaker 1: You can't really tell because they do have so many injuries. 371 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:50,720 Speaker 1: Of what you're gonna stars who are not playing for them, 372 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 1: and he mentioned one of them, Carlos Dunlop, both starting corners. 373 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:56,800 Speaker 1: You're down the starting safety Shawn Williams can't stay on 374 00:17:56,800 --> 00:18:01,359 Speaker 1: the field because his knee. Uh. They're left tackle. Corty 375 00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:03,879 Speaker 1: Glenn got in a fight the other day with a coach, 376 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 1: and so John Jerry, a backup, is going to play 377 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 1: at left tackle and he was abused last week by 378 00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,640 Speaker 1: the Ravens. You're missing a guard, you're missing a j Green. 379 00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 1: They are a beat up football team. I don't think 380 00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 1: they're a bad football team because Andy Dalton has been 381 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 1: a good quarterback um, but they have problems on the 382 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 1: offensive line and injuries all over the place. So oh, 383 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:28,640 Speaker 1: when six says you're bad, they're They're prototypical first year 384 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:32,160 Speaker 1: struggling to find an identity with the new coach. They're 385 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 1: in the first throes of a rebuild with both offense 386 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 1: and defense are new. So every year you sort of 387 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 1: get one team that's going through this in the league 388 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 1: where it's it's a mass rebuild. They've been close enough 389 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:48,159 Speaker 1: in three games that you don't think they're going to 390 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:51,120 Speaker 1: be a team that comes in believing they can't win. 391 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 1: So to me, the most dangerous time of this game 392 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 1: for the Jaguars is the first quarter. If you're not 393 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 1: leading after that quarter, if somehow the Bengals have a lead, 394 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 1: if they've gotten something flew key a team like this, 395 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 1: historically they're all professional football players. If they start believing 396 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 1: they can win, they get dangerous in the second half 397 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 1: and you get that crowd sort of almost sarcastically cheering 398 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:15,640 Speaker 1: for the home team kind of thing, which we've all seen. 399 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:17,920 Speaker 1: That's where it's dangerous. There is need to get ahead 400 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:19,639 Speaker 1: in this game. By the way, I don't disagree, but 401 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 1: I look at I look at the numbers. They are 402 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 1: thirty second running the ball with Joe Mixon, they're running 403 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 1: for fifty six yards then hold on. On the other side, 404 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:32,400 Speaker 1: they're giving up add eighty five yards rushing a game. 405 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:34,880 Speaker 1: So when you want to talk about you know what 406 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 1: this team should be able to go do. They should 407 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,679 Speaker 1: be able to help the rookie quarterback by running the 408 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 1: ball with Leonard for Nette, who has had a couple 409 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 1: of strong performances in a row. I don't know about 410 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:46,440 Speaker 1: what the score has gotta be. I think because it's 411 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 1: an NFL game, and because you've got um, it should 412 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:54,360 Speaker 1: be close into the first half, and then the second 413 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:56,359 Speaker 1: half the Jaguars should pull away. You think it worries 414 00:19:56,400 --> 00:20:01,119 Speaker 1: about this game, Brian, It's not Cincinnati. It's how the 415 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 1: Jaguars have played so far this year, meaning they're two 416 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 1: and four and they've got themselves in position. The thing 417 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:09,919 Speaker 1: that's worries about this team is they've only with the 418 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:13,480 Speaker 1: exception of the Tennessee game, if it feels like they've 419 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 1: led for about thirty seconds other than that game, and 420 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 1: I know that's not the right stat, but that's what 421 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 1: it feels like. Except for that game, you have been 422 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 1: down every game. So it's sort of until you break 423 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: that habit, you wonder if they're going to get a lead, 424 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 1: and it gains a team like this if you don't 425 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 1: have the lead earlier of a sudden starts believing. I 426 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 1: guess that's what I want to see out of this team. 427 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,200 Speaker 1: And and and sort of the basis of our discussion. 428 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,679 Speaker 1: Can they get a lead even against a team that 429 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 1: they should be able to and just say, Okay, we're 430 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 1: better today? They haven't really shown that except for one 431 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 1: game this year. And I get it, it's on paper 432 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:49,119 Speaker 1: and the number wise, but when I watched them, I 433 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:52,359 Speaker 1: just don't see any way that the Bengals team should 434 00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:55,359 Speaker 1: be able to hang with Jacksonville. Just don't see it. 435 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 1: Oh and on on our big thing too, when you 436 00:20:58,080 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 1: mentioned Josh Oliver and now we're not gonna about jo 437 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 1: and Ramsey plan, Uh, I guess is Jalen's gonna play? 438 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:10,160 Speaker 1: And thank goodness that the back is okay. Worried and 439 00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:14,639 Speaker 1: what doctors they must have in Los Angeles because you 440 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:19,960 Speaker 1: were worried that good things happen it's worth it's worth 441 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 1: asking what you can expect from Josh Oliver. Yes, hasn't played, um, 442 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 1: hasn't been in pads on the field on a consistent 443 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:32,119 Speaker 1: basis since training camp began. Talented kid. We saw a 444 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:35,679 Speaker 1: lot out of him watching him in limited practice, but 445 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 1: you could see the athletic of you were excited about 446 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,400 Speaker 1: the length. You could he's understanding of the passing game 447 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 1: because he was the number one option at San Jose 448 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:46,920 Speaker 1: State last year. Again, it's San Jose State, not the NFL. Yeah, 449 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 1: may be when he had fifty five or six catches 450 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 1: and five or six touchdowns. I mean, so he understands 451 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:54,440 Speaker 1: what it means to be a part of it. Last week, 452 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,359 Speaker 1: if anything on this offense didn't work, it was there 453 00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 1: was no target in the middle of the field. There 454 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 1: was no one to bring a safety to the middle 455 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 1: of the field and change the Saints ability to play 456 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:08,119 Speaker 1: double high safeties. Right. They were so desperate for it, 457 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:11,359 Speaker 1: they actually for something. They've got to have something in 458 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:13,400 Speaker 1: the middle of the field so the teams can't go 459 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 1: and play cover too all day long. Doesn't it feel 460 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:21,719 Speaker 1: Brian like Josh Oliver this week coming off the hamstring game, 461 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:25,199 Speaker 1: fitness obviously has to be an issue. It feels like 462 00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:27,880 Speaker 1: if you can get one big play down the same 463 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 1: a half, I had this image of him probably catching 464 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,280 Speaker 1: that and being over in the sidelines gas coming back, 465 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: you know, because it's just tough to play every play 466 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,639 Speaker 1: when you haven't. If they could get three catches a 467 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,120 Speaker 1: couple of down the same and just established something, they'd 468 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:45,440 Speaker 1: be ecstatic. The tight end is supposed to be able 469 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 1: to create a mismatch with the linebacker, bring the safety 470 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 1: into the middle field, but most importantly convert move the 471 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,639 Speaker 1: chains on third down. That's what they need him for. 472 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,159 Speaker 1: I could see three catches for forty seven yards out 473 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 1: of the kid and it being a tremendous performances. All 474 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,680 Speaker 1: three are first downs. All right, when we come back, 475 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 1: we'll go to he will he won't. He might for 476 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:07,320 Speaker 1: Sunday's game against the Bengals.

Always has he will, he won't. 504 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 1: He might for the upcoming matchup Jaguars versus Bengals. In John, 505 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 1: you have Josh Oliver. I have Josh Oliver, and I 506 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:08,680 Speaker 1: think he's very important. Uh this week he will play. Uh. 507 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 1: He practiced full yesterday, which has been the trigger point 508 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:16,359 Speaker 1: they've been waiting for this guy. Once he practiced full, 509 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 1: you felt like he was gonna play. Um, he won't 510 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:23,640 Speaker 1: play every play you know, and he's going to have 511 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 1: I'm sure a fitness issue throughout the game. It takes 512 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:30,160 Speaker 1: time to get to game speed, especially for a rookie. 513 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 1: The fascinating thing, as Doug pointed out, I suppose he 514 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:38,640 Speaker 1: may have been in pads once or twice since he's 515 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,399 Speaker 1: been in the NFL, but I'm not sure when that 516 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 1: would have been. It had been not the last couple 517 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,840 Speaker 1: of weeks because he was out by the third day 518 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 1: of training camp, so he's never had even pads on 519 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 1: in that unless he had one or two that time. 520 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:55,919 Speaker 1: So point being never played anything, but he might start 521 00:25:56,119 --> 00:26:00,480 Speaker 1: because they need him that desperately and he night going 522 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:05,400 Speaker 1: forward be he's got a chance to be that surprise 523 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:11,200 Speaker 1: guy who by December you're looking at saying, okay, now 524 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 1: they've got something offensively, They've got a guy that they 525 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:16,199 Speaker 1: can move around at tight end, they can play. He 526 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 1: might be really important to this team by season's end. 527 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,400 Speaker 1: They sure hope he will be. If this coaching staff 528 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 1: has aspirations for the postseason and Josh Oliver is not, 529 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:26,960 Speaker 1: then Dave Caldwell better get on the phone and start 530 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:29,359 Speaker 1: finding a tight end before the trade deadline. This is 531 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:31,919 Speaker 1: their last hope in the middle of the field. Shaughnessy 532 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,200 Speaker 1: is not coming back. Jeff Swain isn't the guy anyway. 533 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 1: We know what Ben Quayak is. A guy you found 534 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 1: on the street, and if you cut him tomorrow, you 535 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,400 Speaker 1: get him on the street on Sunday. That's just who 536 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:43,399 Speaker 1: he is. You've got to have something in the middle 537 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 1: of the field. Josh Oliver was supposed to be that 538 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 1: this year. They didn't even think James O'Shaughnessy was going 539 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:51,679 Speaker 1: to emerge like he did. He hasn't been on the field. 540 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:53,679 Speaker 1: You've got to have someone in the middle field, especially 541 00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:56,440 Speaker 1: with this rookie quarterback, he better become what they and 542 00:26:56,440 --> 00:27:00,240 Speaker 1: then you really want. I mean, there's the history ly 543 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 1: young guy coming back from this injury. They've sure taken 544 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:08,360 Speaker 1: their time with it or which is good because historically 545 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 1: you worry about ability to stay healthy after coming back. 546 00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:14,960 Speaker 1: It's just a lot to put together quickly. So you 547 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,120 Speaker 1: hope this works. Two or three first downs a game, 548 00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:19,000 Speaker 1: maybe a touchdown or two in the red zone before 549 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 1: the season's over, and you could call it a productive season. Absolutely, right, Brian, 550 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:25,439 Speaker 1: you have Unique goy Uh yeah, So I think Junique 551 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,440 Speaker 1: and got Way will have a huge game on Sunday. 552 00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 1: The Bengals offensive line is a mess right now. Uh, 553 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:35,359 Speaker 1: they're starting again. I've been through this. But John Jerry 554 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 1: at left tackle, who gave up three sacks I think 555 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 1: last week. I don't care where you put Unique and 556 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,440 Speaker 1: Dockway right tackle, left tackle, it doesn't matter. I think 557 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:45,359 Speaker 1: he will abuse whoever he is in front of because 558 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 1: Calais Campbell is gonna draw the attention to the tight end. Uh, 559 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 1: Unique and Josh Allen should both have big days. But 560 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:53,520 Speaker 1: I just get the censer over the last couple of 561 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:56,479 Speaker 1: weeks that it's building with Guinea and he is calmed 562 00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 1: down a little bit. I think early on he was 563 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:02,159 Speaker 1: forcing things. And I don't just expect Zack. I expect sack, strip, 564 00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:07,640 Speaker 1: defensive touchdown. I think he can absolutely do that. Um 565 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:10,919 Speaker 1: I don't know what he won't do. I don't have 566 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,399 Speaker 1: anything that he won't do. But he might be the 567 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:15,639 Speaker 1: guy to score this week. It might bounce the right 568 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:18,399 Speaker 1: way and have him go. Defense has been looking for 569 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:21,240 Speaker 1: one of those. I just this is a guy who 570 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 1: is a he's in. I don't know. I don't know 571 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:29,280 Speaker 1: how to say it. I just think he's he's right 572 00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:32,159 Speaker 1: for one of those days where everyone looks at him 573 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 1: and says pay him now. And he won't. But here's 574 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:36,600 Speaker 1: what he won't do. He won't be the one in 575 00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 1: the locker room after the game to say pay me now. 576 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:42,200 Speaker 1: But if he has that kind of game and it 577 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 1: sparks this team, they might pay him. And you would 578 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:47,880 Speaker 1: love for it to be the week after Jalen gets traded, 579 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,239 Speaker 1: because we've talked about for so long how Unique has 580 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:52,520 Speaker 1: handled this the right way. Wouldn't it be great for 581 00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:55,560 Speaker 1: Sunday be his game? Yeah? No, and you need he 582 00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 1: won't say it publicly. They'll say it to somebody, which 583 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 1: I didn't. Yeah, I didn't say it's good for him 584 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 1: because he get paid a couple of things. And unique 585 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:08,240 Speaker 1: you mentioned he was he was forcing it early. I 586 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,240 Speaker 1: also think he was hurt early. He missed one game 587 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 1: for the first time his career. I think it was hamstring. 588 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:17,360 Speaker 1: It looked like he was half speed for a couple 589 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 1: of weeks trying to fight through it, which is legal, 590 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 1: by the way, you're allowed in the NFL to play 591 00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:24,719 Speaker 1: through an injury. I just wanted to clarify I got 592 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 1: a back injury. Well, I'm just putting it out there. 593 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 1: It's been done. Um in this that's fine, And that's 594 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:40,640 Speaker 1: really all I had to say. Okay, he just wanted 595 00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 1: to deliver a point. My he will, he won't. He 596 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 1: might is Trey Herndon. He will take a step forward 597 00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 1: in the right direction. That's because he's been improving every 598 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,440 Speaker 1: single week and we've seen the reports that teams are 599 00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 1: picking on him. But with the position he plays, he's 600 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 1: gonna get burned on someplace. I mean, Jalen Ramsey and 601 00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 1: a j Boy do too. He's in roving every week. 602 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 1: He won't have this be too much of a challenge 603 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:06,240 Speaker 1: for him. He's not going against a J. Green or 604 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 1: a big time number one receiver. This is a good 605 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 1: game for him to show what he's got and not 606 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,200 Speaker 1: be too challenged. I think this game and he might 607 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 1: be just fine at quarterback cornerback. Heard Doug Marron just 608 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:19,959 Speaker 1: say he's pretty confident in his play. I think he's 609 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 1: gonna be all right. The Bengals do have a receiver 610 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:24,480 Speaker 1: who is capable of giving a problem, though, and that's 611 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 1: Tyler Boyd. Uh A J. Green gets all the attention, 612 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:30,600 Speaker 1: but Boyd has stepped into that rule. And John Ross, 613 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 1: who they drafted first overall and a couple of years 614 00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 1: ago out of Washington, is on the sidelines with an 615 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,080 Speaker 1: injury as well. And Boyd is I think he's fifth 616 00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:39,000 Speaker 1: or sixth in the a f C in terms of 617 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 1: receiving yards. So there is a guy that can give 618 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 1: them some problems. Um. I'll be interested to see that 619 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 1: matchup because Boyd is a smooth receiver. Here's a Trey Herndon. 620 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 1: Trey Herndon's fine, He's not going to be in the 621 00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl, but any team in the league would be 622 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: fine with Trey Herndon as the guy who comes in 623 00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:00,200 Speaker 1: when one of your starters is hurt and has to 624 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 1: start for seven or eight games. This is not a 625 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 1: scenario where you're putting a weakness on the field for 626 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 1: twelve games at all. Can you be Aaron Beasley? It 627 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:11,240 Speaker 1: was a good corner, but never a star here. He 628 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 1: wasn't a Pro Bowl corner. His name is never gonna 629 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:14,640 Speaker 1: go in the Ring of honor, you know, talk about 630 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 1: him as one of the great defenders. But he had 631 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 1: a couple of seasons where he was a really nice player. Yeah, 632 00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 1: maybe not. It's not a knock on Trey. I thought 633 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 1: Aaron was really good and just below that Pro Bowl 634 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:31,440 Speaker 1: level at a p you know. Um, I don't know 635 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 1: that he's as physical as Bees in terms of being 636 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:39,320 Speaker 1: able to be a five six year really frontline start. 637 00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:42,160 Speaker 1: I thought they were really always felt great about beas 638 00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:45,960 Speaker 1: when they liked him a lot. Herndon I would I 639 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 1: would think has a long career as your emergency guy 640 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:53,080 Speaker 1: like that where you feel good about it. I don't 641 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:55,240 Speaker 1: know that he's a long term Beasley could be a 642 00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:57,920 Speaker 1: one in a pinch and not hurt you. I don't 643 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:00,600 Speaker 1: know that that's remember you're always trying to replaced him. 644 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 1: You know, they signed Dion Figures, draft fernando'briyan. I mean 645 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:07,000 Speaker 1: they were all in Washington, you know, they're always looking 646 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:10,880 Speaker 1: for a guy to take his spot. Yeah, yeah, he could. 647 00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 1: I don't see why he couldn't. May I don't think 648 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:16,719 Speaker 1: he's there yet, but certain potential is there. That all right? 649 00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 1: That was a nice little conversation you guys had about that. 650 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:20,959 Speaker 1: We do it on a basis is a good kid 651 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:22,960 Speaker 1: and this is not a it's not a knock on. 652 00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 1: I mean, he's a good play I wasn't flying when 653 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:28,640 Speaker 1: you talk about when you talk about those Drag Wars defenses, 654 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:33,520 Speaker 1: you talk about um, Tony Brackens and Kevin Hardy and 655 00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:36,760 Speaker 1: and Beasley kind of comes in around the way you're saying. Question. 656 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 1: Everybody thought that two thousands see get somebody to watch 657 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 1: his ringing. Um, that area was talked about that two 658 00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:48,400 Speaker 1: thousand and sixteen draft class was gonna be the best ever. 659 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:50,720 Speaker 1: I wonder now at the ninety six draft class that 660 00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:53,920 Speaker 1: had Beasley, Brackens, and Hardy all contributing for Reggie Barlow 661 00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:55,760 Speaker 1: made a lot of plays on still stays and number one. 662 00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:58,960 Speaker 1: Now that Ramsey is no longer here.

A welcome back Jags Drive 692 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:52,160 Speaker 1: Time Friday Morning, our last segment on Friday's Pick one 693 00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:55,200 Speaker 1: and Pick It. Going around the NFL. We're going back 694 00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:59,759 Speaker 1: to John across the table, Eagles and Cowboys, and are 695 00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 1: you they look for an a f C game because 696 00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:03,640 Speaker 1: you want a Jaguars tie in and there's really just 697 00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:07,480 Speaker 1: not a lot on the A f C side. Um, 698 00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:11,120 Speaker 1: So this is that the Texans and Colts was Well, 699 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:15,839 Speaker 1: I figure when you guys would take the low hanging fruit. Okay, Well, 700 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 1: I guess when we're talking texts. Uh. So this is 701 00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:24,080 Speaker 1: an interesting game because you thought early on that the 702 00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 1: Cowboys are one of the best teams in the NFC, 703 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,600 Speaker 1: and now all of a sudden, it feels like it's 704 00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:33,000 Speaker 1: a half two for the Eagles. It feels like they 705 00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:35,000 Speaker 1: feel like it's sliding. I think the Eagles win this 706 00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,520 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, Big d is an absolute 707 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:39,879 Speaker 1: turmoil this week. They've lost four straight and you wonder 708 00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:42,600 Speaker 1: about the future of Jason Garrett, You wonder about you know, 709 00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:45,400 Speaker 1: they were gonna pay Dak Prescott for the season. You 710 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:49,400 Speaker 1: know what happens, They're huge game for Dallas. Uh. If 711 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:51,480 Speaker 1: they don't win, you wonder what goes on? You know. Um. 712 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:53,280 Speaker 1: Speaking of the Eagles, there's been a lot of criticism 713 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:55,320 Speaker 1: of how we roseman in Philly for not getting the 714 00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:57,880 Speaker 1: Jalen Ramsey deal done because they are banged up in 715 00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 1: the secondary and they're young and uh and injured and 716 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:05,319 Speaker 1: for a team that expects to contend, I mean, you 717 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:07,399 Speaker 1: you have Carson Wentz, who is the guy who hasn't 718 00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:09,040 Speaker 1: been able to stay on the field, but he's in 719 00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:11,360 Speaker 1: the prime years of his career now, both on the 720 00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:13,239 Speaker 1: field and in terms of how he impacts your cap. 721 00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:17,319 Speaker 1: That means every year you have to maximize your opportunities. 722 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:21,640 Speaker 1: You can't be thinking incredibly long term. Um Boy Roseman 723 00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:23,040 Speaker 1: has been roasted for this one. I think this is 724 00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:25,239 Speaker 1: a really important game for the Eagles too. Yeah, they'll 725 00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:29,480 Speaker 1: have a chance of Jaalen and a couple of months, 726 00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:33,399 Speaker 1: and I think Dalas seems to be in turmoil right now. 727 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:36,200 Speaker 1: I mean, if you're watching NFL Network, it's you know, 728 00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:38,279 Speaker 1: kind of fired Jason Garrett right now. That's kind of 729 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:40,280 Speaker 1: the way they always are though. I mean, Jerry Jones 730 00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 1: embraces that he's the old As long as you're saying 731 00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:46,879 Speaker 1: our name, then will accept that and we don't mind 732 00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:49,879 Speaker 1: it at all. I never feel like the Cowboys are 733 00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:52,320 Speaker 1: circling the drain because I always feel like they know 734 00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:58,160 Speaker 1: how to handle the situation, right Yeah, and you know, 735 00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 1: to their credit, if if they turn and things around 736 00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 1: and win this ball game, then they'll be able to 737 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:04,759 Speaker 1: plant their flag once again at the top of the 738 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,560 Speaker 1: NFC East. Yeah, both these teams are struggling, but it's 739 00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:09,400 Speaker 1: a game for first place in the NFC East, and 740 00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:11,720 Speaker 1: you feel like right now the East in that conference 741 00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:14,400 Speaker 1: is gonna be a nine and seven winner. All right, Brian, 742 00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:17,319 Speaker 1: you got the drama game, go for it. Well, look, 743 00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:20,719 Speaker 1: I'm I'm gonna play john here and embrace the petty. Um. 744 00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:24,280 Speaker 1: That's Julio Jones. He's the best receiver in the league. 745 00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:29,000 Speaker 1: And I believe that the Falcons. I'm stunned that the 746 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:34,040 Speaker 1: Falcons with Matt Ryan, Julio Jones, Devanta Freeman, Calvin Ridley 747 00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:37,719 Speaker 1: Austin Hooper have lost as consistently over the last month 748 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:41,319 Speaker 1: as they have. Um, I'm picking them, I'm pulling for him, 749 00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:44,880 Speaker 1: and I want Julio Jones to have seven catches, a 750 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:48,960 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty nine yards and seven touchdowns. But I'll 751 00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:52,879 Speaker 1: take one, right, I mean, I like it. Oh, because 752 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:57,600 Speaker 1: of jailing. It's a look, it's it's It's an interesting game. 753 00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:00,200 Speaker 1: It's an interesting game for Jaguars fans because I there 754 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:03,080 Speaker 1: are Jaguars fans all over who are saying, right right now, 755 00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:06,200 Speaker 1: stay with the seven touchdown, Sexton, go with seven. Um. 756 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:07,920 Speaker 1: They all want to see Jalen out there, and they 757 00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:11,719 Speaker 1: want to see him get torched. Well, and for emotional 758 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:14,799 Speaker 1: reasons and also for very logical you want them to lose. 759 00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 1: You want the Rams to lose every game. You want 760 00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:20,440 Speaker 1: them to continue to lose and lose and lose, because yeah, obviously, 761 00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:22,799 Speaker 1: but they haven't. I think they have a legitimate chance 762 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:24,880 Speaker 1: to lose in Atlanta this week because I keep waiting 763 00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:26,920 Speaker 1: for the Falcons to break out, by the way Dan 764 00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 1: Quinn is on the firing line, and if they don't 765 00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:31,920 Speaker 1: get things turned around, even though Arthur Blank keeps saying 766 00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:34,480 Speaker 1: I'm not changing, I'm not changing. I'm not changing. If 767 00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:37,319 Speaker 1: they go one and six, hey, there's a change coming 768 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:39,839 Speaker 1: when they get to their bye week. Um, John's right. 769 00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:42,120 Speaker 1: You want to see them lose, lose, lose, So I 770 00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 1: think they could lose this week, but they're gonna win 771 00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:45,839 Speaker 1: the next week. Uti playing the Bengals in London, right, 772 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:48,759 Speaker 1: and we just established that the Bengals are bereft of 773 00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:51,200 Speaker 1: injuries and they just don't have healthy players at all. 774 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:55,840 Speaker 1: So so are pulling for your Falcons, pulling for the 775 00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:58,359 Speaker 1: Falcons to win? They're not my Falcons. I don't know them. 776 00:38:58,520 --> 00:38:59,879 Speaker 1: If I did, I wouldn't be sitting here with you. 777 00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:03,360 Speaker 1: Fair enough, alright, My pick one in pick it is 778 00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:08,920 Speaker 1: Baltimore and Seattle Russell Wilson versus Lamar Jackson. That's exciting 779 00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:12,000 Speaker 1: and itself. Ravens are four and two, Seahawks are five 780 00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:15,120 Speaker 1: and one. Seattle is at home. I'm sure there's a 781 00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:19,160 Speaker 1: mutual admiration between these two quarterbacks, but Seattle at home, 782 00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:21,040 Speaker 1: it's tough to pick them well. I think the other 783 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:23,160 Speaker 1: interesting storyline here is Earl Thomas just going home. And 784 00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:26,920 Speaker 1: remember how dramatic it was when he left. Uh he 785 00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:30,719 Speaker 1: lands in Baltimore and Pete Carroll's taking the high road 786 00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:33,000 Speaker 1: this week. We love our former players and we love 787 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:35,800 Speaker 1: beating them. I like that about Pete that he doesn't 788 00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:38,120 Speaker 1: mind that we love to beat the guys we love. 789 00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:42,560 Speaker 1: He said, yeah, I think this is the marquee game 790 00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:44,160 Speaker 1: of the weekend. I know that the Philly Dallas thing 791 00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 1: will draw the ratings game, but I think this is 792 00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:46,960 Speaker 1: gonna be the most fun game to watch. And as 793 00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,480 Speaker 1: we didn't go over Texans Colts, um, let's do it. 794 00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:54,640 Speaker 1: I think I feel like right now the Texans are 795 00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:57,799 Speaker 1: moving towards being the class of the division. I would 796 00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:00,480 Speaker 1: like the Jaguars in two weeks to be able to 797 00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:02,879 Speaker 1: talk me out of that in London, but I think 798 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:05,799 Speaker 1: right now the Texans go win that game. I just 799 00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:08,200 Speaker 1: feel like at some point, as as good as the 800 00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:11,600 Speaker 1: Colts are, and they're proving they're pretty good at some point. 801 00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:14,400 Speaker 1: Not having luck. It feels like it's going to cost 802 00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:17,520 Speaker 1: them those two magic games at a quarterback of that 803 00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:19,320 Speaker 1: caliber gives. Yet. I think this is probably one of 804 00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:21,440 Speaker 1: the thing that stands out the most about Houston is 805 00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:24,319 Speaker 1: it's all their quarterback. It's Deshaun Watson. You don't hear 806 00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:27,160 Speaker 1: about Whitney Merciless is making some nice place, but you 807 00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:30,359 Speaker 1: don't hear about j J. Watt devastating offensive lines. Uh, 808 00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:33,640 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins has fallen off? Where's he been? It's not 809 00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:36,120 Speaker 1: that Jalen Ramsey's lined up against him every single week. 810 00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:38,719 Speaker 1: Will Fuller had a big game and then had a 811 00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:41,600 Speaker 1: really poor game.
