Rams (35) vs. Jaguars (7) | Week 7 Postgame Show

A join JP Shadric, Mike Dempsey, and Pride of the Jaguars Fred Taylor as they break down today’s game. Jaguars Postgame is brought to you by Farah and Farah, the University of Florida, Waterburger, and by Everbank. Jaguars Postgame presented by GEA starts right now. All right, welcome in everybody. Jaguars postgame brought to you by GAA, Government Employees Health Association. Benefits for federal employees and retirees. The Jags would like to retire. All memories of this one, maybe with the lone exception of the game Travis Hunter had today, 35-7, the LA Rams dominated the Jacksonville Jaguars and basically name their score today. Matthew Stafford became the first quarterback in the NFL’s International Series to throw for five touchdowns in a game. I’m Mike Dempsey back at the Hyundai Studios in Jacksonville. We’ve got Brian Ston standing by at Wembley Stadium joining me here uh for a few minutes. We’ll try to catch up with Bucky Brooks, Liam Cohen, and others before we break down shop at Wembley and the Jags make the trip back home. But uh Brian, this was one that uh it was pretty evident from the outset. Once again, the Jags didn’t match the physical play. It was a mistakrone game and basically the Rams named their score on offense today. Yeah. Uh listen, I thought that the Rams were a better football team primarily because they had a quarterback and Matt Stafford who had seen everything and Devonte Adams who we know has been a nightmare for the Jaguars. I thought it was going to be a tough ask for them to come out here and to win the game. They were going to have to play nearly perfect football and yet it’s anything but. I mean, all we talked about in the pregame show as Bucky Brooks puts a headset on is that they had to play a a solid game and they had to avoid penalties, turnovers, mistakes. I had them at 16 penalty flags, 13 of which were accepted to them. We talked about could you get to four, right? Kansas City in Jacksonville Monday Night Football committed 13 penalties and the following Sunday night against the Detroit Lions, man, they fixed it. They had none. Today the Jaguars had a worst day from the mistake penalty standpoint and Bucky it had crushed them. It absolutely did Brian. It was um it’s really disappointing to see the way that we came out in terms of just a lack of execution and then very very early in the game you could just see that we couldn’t get it right. Um I can tell you from being on the sideline it’s the most out of sorts I’ve seen our team. um even the most emotional in terms of reacting to bad calls and everything like that. We just couldn’t get it back together. And then when we did string together some plays that would put us in position to put together, we would hurt ourselves. Drop pass, penalty, miskick, things that we really hadn’t seen, not necessarily like we’ve seen the drops, whatever, but just the lack of execution in those critical moments that had been a part of the DNA. You know, Mike and Bucky, the Jaguars had six consecutive drives that got into Rams territory between the second quarter and the third quarter, and they came away with no points on any of those. The third quarter in particular seemed to stretch forever, it felt like even though the Jaguars were in a three- touchdown hole, there were opportunities for them to make something of it. And yet, they couldn’t get it done. I felt like, and this is just anecdotal, but I felt like it was the drop passes that really caused problems for this football team today because every time there was a chance to make a catch, to make a play, to extend a drive, to get you down inside the 5 yardd line, the ball came out. Yeah, we’re not coming up with the 50-50 balls, and they’re called 50-50 balls for a reason, because they’re difficult, but we’re not making enough of those plays. I think on top of the drop balls, I think there is a confidence in the kicker situation. Whereas in the past, we talked about in preeason and Cam Little 70 yarder. Now he misses and he’s missed a few things that we used to take as layups or gimmies. Well, when he’s missing now, you begin to do we go for it, do we kick, do we go for it? Because you would like to see if he makes one, maybe we stack some threes until we can find our way. we kind of stay in the game as opposed to playing with a level of desperation from the second quarter on. Bucky, I think you hit it because I was going to bring up that exact point. I think once you you elect to go for it or not go for it on on fourth and a yard and a half, which surprised me at that point anyway, as well as the Rams have been moving the ball, I felt like they’d want to keep pace, but then Cam Little misses that. And I think you’re exactly right. There was no confidence. They ended up going forward on like fourth and seven. And I get it. Now you’re getting behind. you’re 21 to nothing down and you have to have touchdowns. But guys, this is going to be an ongoing issue until they solve it. And uh I had reports from folks that he was fantastic in warm-ups again, which he wasn’t last week, but he went out there and hooked it badly, Buck. And uh you got to you look at his facial expression on the sideline. He’s shaking his head. You know how it can go with kickers. They can lose their confidence quickly. And uh Cam’s misses are starting to pile up right now. You know, I saw him, Mike, on the practice field earlier this week on Thursday and I thought he was kicking pretty well and then he missed one and I thought, uhoh. Right. I mean, you you expect your kicker on the practice field, I mean, unless you’re kicking from 75 yards to nail all of those. And when he missed that, I was looking at his body language and his body language seemed almost shocked that he missed it. So when he got out there today, I thought, man, is this the right time to try this field goal from 50 yards. It had been raining all day. The field was wet. There was moisture in the air. Maybe just go for it on fourth down and two at that moment in time. And Bucky, maybe that seems desperate, but I guess I just didn’t believe that the kicker was ready to come in and overcome his lack of confidence. Well, I will say in watching him and his body language after the miss is kicked, he is definitely in a weird headsp space. I would say that his reaction to the miss was um not only of dejection but of frustration, exasperation, um all of those emotions at once. Like he sat down there by himself, no one went to kind of con console him or comfort him because kickers are it’s kind of weird in terms of like the dynamic. Do you touch do you go talk to him? just kind of let him be. And you could just tell like he seemingly has never experienced a mist or slumps and he’s having a hard time kind of going through it and trying trying to work his way out of it. But, you know, of all the problems, that one, safe to say, is is is down the list because we just enumerated the penalty problems that were an issue all day. For the second straight game, the Jaguars have given up seven sacks. Now, I I get it. A lot of those came uh I think Trevor dropped back to pass 47 or 48 times when it was clear what what they were doing and that makes it tough on the offensive line. But I mean seven sacks in back-to-back weeks. Matt Stafford had five touchdown passes. That’s the first time in international play that’s happened. First time against the Jaguars since 2012. And Dvonte Adams, you know, three touchdowns. I think he’s got seven touchdowns or maybe eight in his last three outings against the Jaguars. So there were coverage problems despite there being no Puka Nua. I mean this was just between the drop passes and the sacks and the and the mistakes. It was just a a complete epic disaster for Liam Cohen’s football team today. There’s no way to to paint it any other way. No, it was look it was a bad performance. Yeah. And it was one that we didn’t anticipate just even coming off of the heels of the tough loss against the Seahawks. just not one where you expect them to lay an egg against a team that we thought would be a very competitive game. But I will say, you talk about the sacks up front. We have to figure that out. Like we have to figure out how to play against back-to-back weeks played against very good young dynamic defensive lines. And we haven’t handled it well, not only in pass protection, but in the running game. And so over the bye-week, we can reset, recalibrate, get back on track, kind of figure out, hey, we thought we were going to be this type team. This is the team that we have to be based on what our personnel is doing, how they’re playing. And Bucky, they need to figure out their own pass rush as well, right? I mean, Matthew Stafford could stand back there, turn his head, go through his progressions for most of the first half when the game was in the balance and do whatever he wanted to and it made his throws easier and therefore his guys had a little bit more time to get open. They were less contested. They were catching them uh because they were those easier type passes. So, I mean, look, Josh Hines Allen’s gotten a lot of pressure this year. He’s got to start getting the quarterback on the ground. He’s not the only one that collectively uh no sacks for the team and only four quarterback hits today. So, how do you make that better, Buck, with the personnel that they have on hand? Buck, I don’t know whether you heard the question, but he was he was asking about the pass rush in particular and how you can get it going. Obviously, you’ve got Trayvon Walker, and you hope to get him in a cast uh for the Las Vegas game in two weeks where he has more ability to rip and to use his arms and hands to throw guys around to play to his strength. But the Jaguars have just gotten nothing in the pass rush. The one sack they did get today was negated by a penalty on Montterk Brown. First things first, you got to be able to stop the run on early downs. What the Jaguars have not been able to do the last couple weeks, they haven’t been able to dictate the terms. So it’s means stop the run on early downs, force long yard situations. So everyone in the stadium knows it’s a pass and then you can heat them up because we haven’t been able to control the game like we were controlling the first four games where no one could really run the ball. We forced them into these one-dimensional game plans. Then you could heat them up. We haven’t been able to do that. And so it all works together. Stopping a run is the priority. But then when we have the opportunity to rush the passer, you have to win your one-on- ones. And it has to be someone early. It was Eric Armstead being able to command some attention. So now Josh Allen, Josh Hines Allen, and Trayvon Walker able to get more one-on- ones. Somebody else has to emerge besides 41 and 44 to be able to give us an opportunity to get more one-on- ones on the perimeter. All right, guys. Uh just past 1:00 here on the East Coast.

Brian Ston and Bucky Brooks standing by at Wembley Stadium. We’ll hear from head coach Liam Cohen coming up shortly. And uh guys, uh we talked a lot about Puka Nua’s potential absence. found out Friday that he would be ruled out of this game. Didn’t seem to matter, uh, Brian, as Matthew Stafford was content to spread it around early on between all the different tight ends and, uh, 10 different players caught passes today for the Los Angeles Rams. And uh as Stafford threw for five touchdowns, only needing 182 yards uh through the air, but uh it didn’t look like they noticed Puka Nakua’s absence very much today, Brian. Yeah, it’s a really good football team. I mean, they they shifted gears and they went right at both tight ends and just attacked. They went after Dewey Wingard early on and exposed his inability in the middle of the field to turn quickly. Um, this is very well coached football team and they did not miss a beat without Puka Nua because they knew exactly how they wanted to play. And I think for us as Jags, as we talked about emulating some of the things that the Rams have been able to do is being able to have a roster that’s so versatile that when one star players out, you can go to other parts of the roster and get that production. is having a coach who is comfortable being able to do um those things and being able to make it where you can continue to exist if you don’t have one of your guys. But it’s not only that. It’s having a mindset that next man up. People talk about it all the time, but they never crack or crumble when they lose people. They just kind of go to the next one. So, I think if we continue to build it out and continue to kind of make it where this is who we are and this is how we’re gonna play, I think the pieces are there, but it’s going to take some time for all this to pop. How do you get this team, Bucky? And and listen, this was the seventh game of the Liam Cohen era. So, he’s working on the mindset of this team. And we talked earlier about how resilient they were relative to last season. Absolutely, they were. But today, it was the Rams who had no issue whatsoever with resilience. No puka pu puka nakua no problem at all come in on Saturday not a problem for them either seemed like anything they wanted to do they were able to do. How do you get that mindset? Uh one you demand it and one you you don’t kind of allow those other things those excuses to be a big part of the equation. You just keep playing. You don’t react to bad calls. You just line the ball up and play the next one. Everything is your mindset. be very intentional about having the toughness to deal with whatever is ahead of you. Um, having lived in LA, having seen Shawn McVey do it from the beginning, he’s been very intentional about how they operate like that. They are very tough-minded, hardened team. Look, the past two years they started one and four and one and four and went to the playoffs. You don’t do that if you don’t have a hardened, tough-minded team. is turning in Jacksonville. And I’m actually excited to see how we handle ourselves by week and coming out of it because if we’re the team that I think we’re going to be, we’ll handle it. We’ll take these lessons, apply them, and it’ll be a much different team that we see when we head to Vegas and play the Raiders on November. All right, we’ve got to turn the conversation just slightly for a moment. Uh because when the coach comes in here, we’re obviously going to talk about things that are not good. There was one thing that stood out today that was very positive and that was Travis Hunter on both sides of the football. He made a play in the third quarter on a sideline route on third down against Devonte Adams where from the line of scrimmage he his footwork was so good it was like he ran the route step for step with him. Devonte Adams made a a high-point move to catch the ball and the minute the ball hit number 17’s hands there was Travis to break up the pass. And then in the fourth quarter, we saw him make a couple of plays and he went over 100 for the first time in his career. Got his first NFL touchdown. You know, in the post game, he’s not going to be very happy about it. But as Jaguars fans who are listening and you and I who cover this team, it was good to see number 12 rise to the occasion today. I’ve said this and I said this for a few weeks, he should be the number one receiver right now. We have to feature him because every time he touches the ball, he makes you hold your breath for positive reasons, right? He can turn a five-yard pass into a 12- yard game quickly with his run after catch ability. He’s consistent, reliable, dependable when it comes to catching the ball. He catches the ball in traffic. He catches the ball down the field. There’s so many things that he can do and he doesn’t even know how good he can be because his route running is still a work in progress. But when you see the synergy and the connection between Tre Trevor Lawrence and Travis Hunter, to me, they have to find a way to force feed him the ball. All right, let’s go throw it back to Mike Dempsey and uh squeeze a break in here. We’re waiting on head coach Liam Cohen. Mike, we’ll send it back to you. All right, you got it, Brian and Bucky. Back to London here momentarily. Jags fall 35-7 to the LA Rams, waiting on the arrival of head coach Liam Cohen. You’ll hear him coming up shortly. 20 Oh boy. 35 to7 Jags full to the Rams.

Brian Ston over at Wembley. Bucky Brooks doing some of his own postgame duties at the moment as we await Liam Cohen who’s now speaking with the assembled media there in London. Brian, won’t be long before you get a chance to catch up with him. And I’m sure very disappointed. You go up against your your mentor. Uh this is not the way you want it to come out in the first head-to-head matchup as head coaches. No, Mike. And I’m sure one of the first things that he will talk about is the fact that they played poorly against Seattle and they came over here with a chance to spend time together this week and it didn’t appear at any moment in time that the team was distracted. Of course, they were all out at Wembley, I’m sorry, at the Grove together. Uh and and the Jaguars made a concerted effort to make everything easy so that they could focus on football and football only. Um he’s going to talk about the fact that penalties and mistakes untimely against Seattle were crippling today against the Rams. I just every time it seemed like there was a chance for them to grab a little bit of traction, a little bit of momentum. Boom. There’s the flag on the field. And then listen, the best example of that, the penalty on Jarian Jones on the punt return touchdown. That would have made it 14 to7. By the way, it also would have been a Jaguars record three in his career for Parker Washington, the third in the last year for him cuz remember he did it here as well. I that would at that moment I thought, okay, this one is not going to go their way today because there is the point in the game where you say we needed a lift. We got a lift. Everybody can settle down. The game is 14-7. We can get there. Then the Jaguars missed the field goal and and Mike um Matt Stafford, he he could sense the desperation in the air. It was it was everywhere like the rain and you just knew this veteran quarterback is going to go right down the field and stick it in the end zone and put this one out of reach and and that’s exactly what he did. That is exactly what he did. All right, Brian, we’ll get back out to you shortly here at Wembley Stadium.

We’re not on the team charter. We’re coming back tomorrow. And this may be one of the few times that uh coming back the day after makes sense. I’m not sure that’s going to be a happy ride at all. Bucket, let me take you back to the Wednesday press conference after the Jaguars had the dramatic come from behind win over the Chiefs on Monday Night Football. The head coach stood in front of the media and talked about his team being, and I’m quoting him now, pissed off about the way they played. Not of course that they won, but the way that the game was played. Since then, they have committed 23 penalties that were called. They’ve allowed 14 sacks. If he was pissed off after a win, how h how’s he feeling as he sits down here to talk to you in a couple of minutes? Oh, I think he’s certainly upset and upset about the result, but more upset about the way that they’ve played. They haven’t played very well. I would contend that the two teams that we played after the Chiefs are better overall teams. Yeah, I think so, too. and the strengths of those teams exposed some parts of the Jaguars that we hadn’t seen. The young defensive line from the Seahawks and the Rams expose us. So, we got to get better. We got to go to work. He has to figure out how to mask those deficiencies from a schematic sense. He has to figure out how to get this team to play better. But, you got two weeks to kind of take a breath, reset, re-evaluate what you’ve seen, and then try and figure out the best plan to go forward. The penalty thing is going to be a very asked question over the next two weeks, but the question I don’t know how you do it is, you know, because so much of it circumstantial. Yeah, so much of it is, but a lot of it the pre- snap penalties you can find a way to get it in. You know, it’s really just working on getting the pre-nap penalties there. You can’t get rid of all the other stuff, right? But you certainly can get rid of the ones that you can control. Everyone needs to know the snap count situations, formations, and those things. No turnovers obviously today, but the penalties were still there. And the head coach is getting ready to walk into the room, Buck. So, I’m going to step aside and let him put this headset on. All right, coach. Uh, thoughts on a tough day? Yeah. Um, really frustrating day. um all the things that you kind of have talked about being an Achilles heel, things that you talked about um being a reason that we a way we can’t continue to play and and do things and um it showed up again and that’s the frustrating part. It starts right here as the head football coach. Um but the penalties, mistakes, drops, whatever it be, um has continued to to be an issue. It it certainly has continued to be an issue. And um look, it’s one of those things that show up like because when you play really good teams, they they can show you your flaws on so you can see them and they’re magnified in those things. So, and coming off the last two weeks heading into the by-week, you’ve talked about all the things that you can clean up, but how do you go about that process of figuring out how to evaluate what we need to work on and how to get better over the next two weeks? Yeah, so it starts with this long flight we got going home and um have the opportunity to watch the tape to be able to get those emotions and feelings in check to understand maybe what exactly occurred today. Having some thoughts right from being there just now. And um this week we will look at everything from a um self scout standpoint in all three phases. Offense, defense, special teams. Self scout our um tendencies both, you know, the good and the bad, right? Things you need to maybe look at that were being um worked against us in some ways, but also all right from a personnel standpoint in all three phases. Who do we need to see more of and play more? or do we maybe need to play a little bit less and see less in terms of um getting the best 11 on the grass at all at all times and also making sure that as play callers on offense, defense, special teams, and coaches that um you know, we’ve got the best plan possible. Right now, our starts the last three weeks, we have started poorly. If you really go back to Kansas City, right, we got down 14 nothing. We started poorly in the last three games. defense came out today, I thought, and gave us again some opportunities in the second half to go close the gap. You get the punt return called back on a touch, you know, for a touchdown. You missed the field goal. Um, and you get past and cross the 50 how many times and don’t get points out of it. So, frustrating day. Yeah, really frustrating. So now you take all that frustration, you you you sit at four and three, you head into the bye-week and most coaches always kind of break the season up into quarters or those things. So there’s still a lot of football left. How do you maintain the positive vibes that have been created from training camp and the first part of season regardless of the record? Because I you always talk about play to play at a time. Don’t worry about outcomes, worry about the process. That’s I think we’ll find out a what type of leadership we are and what we have here. um not just the the players, I mean coaches, staff, leadership, um but also from a player standpoint, how do we respond to this? All right. Is it is our immediate response is going to be to point the finger uh blame each other or is the immediate response to look in the mirror? How can I both, you know, do my job as a player, coach, staff member, whatever it is, how can I help and improve myself, which will then help the entirety in the big picture of it. If we start pointing the finger and um not looking inward first, I think we’ll have some problems. Yeah. But one thing that I I do know because you talked about this part of you talked about there’s some adversity that’s on the horizon. We got to deal with the storm. How do we get out of it in building a tough and hardened team? We had to anticipate that some of this was going to happen. So part of it is the challenge of, hey, let’s figure out how to get this through because if we get through this, it’ll be much better for the team. Much better for us moving forward. It’s like the armor you talk about is when you get hit and kinks in the armor, it strengthens you. And right now we are at that at a moment in which uh we lost the the the battle, right? We lost two battles in a row. and ultimately how we respond to this and how we as coaches go and look at this from a detailed self scout future moving forward all that and from the players being honest when we watch this tape. Am I performing at the highest level? Am I practicing the best? Am I walking through the best? Am I meeting? Am I staying attentive and paying attention to the details? And in the games like we got to go make some plays, too. That’s true. I mean, we got to go. We got to go make some plays when the ball’s in the air, when we have opportunities. Like, it ain’t always going to be wide open. We all got to go make some plays in all three phases. And um that’s the part we got to get through. Well, I’m excited to see what the next two weeks look like and when we teed up again against the Raiders. Thanks, Bucky. I appreciate it, man. All right, Bucky. Safe travels to you and everybody back from London here to Jacksonville.

Uh Tony, what a debacle for the Jags today. just simply really very little outside of Travis Hunter going right. I’ll let you weigh in on everything uh here in a moment, but time now for the Kingfish Pest control defensive play of the game. And for me, Tone, this is kind of emblematic of the fact that we didn’t have many guys making standout plays today. I’m going to give it to Travis Hunter on the pass break up on the third down. It was his first defensive rep of the game and he’s brought in to cover Devonte Adams one-on-one. followed him down the field. A semi-de pass, able to break that up and give the Jags an opportunity to get the ball back. Their offense didn’t do anything with it uh at that point. Down 21 to nothing, but uh he was called upon at a big moment and delivered. Yeah, really on a day where there’s not a whole lot of players on the entire roster that you can point to and say that they even had the potential of making what was even a remotely positive play, you know, basically on the day. But that was a big play, his first defensive play of the game. It does draw the question why is that his first defensive play of the game? Like it’s we’re watching them have trouble throughout the first half of the game covering guys like they’re just having trouble doing it. Now I don’t know how much Hunter being on or off the field would have affected you know that kind of thing because a lot of that was tight ends right that they were having issues with but it was the first opportunity he had. It’s becoming more and more clear, it feels like, to me, by the week, that Travis Hunter needs to be featured on both sides of the ball. If they’re going to have a chance to be as good as they can be on either side of the ball. Well, if this was the great plan and the great vision, Yeah. where he is going to help revolutionize the game of football, then we got to see him out there with the opportunity to do that. By the way, Devonte Adams only had 35 yards receiving in this game, but he caught three touchdowns that totaled four yards, and that’s been kind of his mo. He’s almost impossible. Aaron Rogers did that with Devonte from the oney yardd line throughout their career in Green Bay. So, he’s great at that. He’s as good as anybody that’s played in the last 20 years at that kind of opportunity in the end zone. Just be the rebounder. There’s not many guys that have been better than that. Yeah. On a day when the Jacks didn’t have a lot of defensive highlights, Travis Hunter’s pass break up the Kingfish pest control defensive play of the game. Let the pros tackle the pests in your home by going to kingfishpest.com. That is kingfishpest.com. All right, time now to get an Everbank stats check, Tony. Looking at the team stats, uh the Rams had it in just about every category. First downs 26-21 over the Jaguars. Uh Jags did a good job once again on third down. Uh they got the Rams off the field eight out of 10 times. They did convert their only two fourth down tries. So overall, four for 12. That’s still a pretty good percentage uh for the Jaguars defense. Uh unfortunately for the offense, three of 15 on third down, two of six on fourth down for a combined 5 for21 conversion rate on those key downs. Uh total yards in the game, the Jags actually outgainained the Rams, which shows you how unimportant that stat can be. 358 to 271 passing, it was 264 to 182 on the ground. Jags outrushed the Rams 94- 89. But in the red zone, uh, four for four for the Rams getting points on the board, Jags 0 for two on the day. And the big telling stats are the penalties. 13 for Jacksonville, including several more that were not accepted. Uh, for 119 total yards, Rams penalized today five times for 45 yards. Time of possession in LA’s favor, 3146 to 2814. Yeah, you look at the individual stats in the game for the Rams. Matthew Stafford, not a big yardage day. 21 out of 33 for 182 but five touchdowns. Obviously the killer there at 117.7 rating there for Matthew Stafford on the ground. Not a whole lot going for the Rams 12 for 54. Kairen Williams led the way there. Uh Blake Corm led had added another 12 for 37 on the ground as you mentioned. Devonte Adams the three touchdowns but on only five catches for 35 yards. Uh the leading receiver was Kobe Parkinson who had the long the 23 yard touchdown that was on all three of his targets. 47 yards in the game for him. On the Jaguars side of things, Trevor Lawrence 23 of 48, 296, one touchdown, no picks, a 74.7 rating. Travis ETN led him on the ground eight carries for 44 yards. Travis Hunter his first 100yard day as a pro. Eight for 101 and a touchdown on 14 targets. Parker Washington was second on the team, 4 for 52 on 10 targets today. For Parker Washington, Brian Thomas Jr. 3 for 31 on seven targets, which that’s how you wind up with a guy completing 50% of his passes for almost 300 yards is everyone’s targeted 10 times and catches four or five. You know, like that’s the kind of day they had on offense. The leaders on defense for the Jags today, Ventrell Miller, eight tackles, five of the solo variety. Jordan Lewis, six tackles, four solo, and one pass defense. They had four quarterback hits today. Three of those came from Josh Hines Allen. I don’t know if you ever felt them, but he did have three quarterback hits in the game today. Not a whole heck of a lot else going on on defense for anybody. No. And I look, I heard Liam Cohen kind of lob the defense to give the offense opportunities. To me, the most telling moment in this game is when the Rams got the ball back up 21 to nothing with about a minute 40, minute 45 at the end of the first half and they just sat on the ball because they knew if we’re not crazy enough to turn it over down here, Jacksonville has no chance to come back and beat us today. And so they didn’t even push the threshold in today’s NFL. Everyone tries to get in field goal range at a minimum. Truly, if that had been wet field, perfect conditions, the Rams are probably trying to drive that down for a touchdown. But they I think they were content. They knew at 21 to nothing, barring major catastrophic mistakes, they were not going to lose the football game. Yeah. I think part of that is they’ve seen the success that the Jaguars had early in the season was in moments like that, they found a way to get a turnover, right? Like that’s where the early season success happened for the football team. So from that perspective from McVey, he’s just like, “Look, there’s no risk reason to risk anything, right? Like they’re not a threat to us at this point. Let’s not help them be a threat by being a threat to ourselves like in that kind of moment.” But I think we’ve all seen enough of the Rams success in the last decade plus that Yeah, it’s surprising when a Rams team with Stafford as hot as he appeared to be at that point in the game to just say, you know what, we don’t have to do anything. We don’t have to push anything right here. Just basically kneel it out. Let’s get away with a win. And we got another half to go, but we’re not feeling threatened. We get the ball first in the second half. And they kind of played the third quarter that way, too. Absolutely. They just said, “You know what? Let’s run some clock here.” It’s almost like that’s was their primary goal there in the third quarter. And then they’re like, “Oh, okay. Well, I guess I could throw five touchdowns as well.” Yeah, why not on fourth and one just try a 40-yard pass? Yeah, let’s do that. Uh, as well. So, look, they basically did what they wanted today uh with very few exceptions. Well, coming up next, it’s the Jaguars Radio Network player of the game voting. If this one’s not unanimous, there’s going to be an issue. Final score, 35 to7. The LA Rams win it. This is Jaguars postgame on Jaguars Radio.

Benefits for federal employees and retirees. Mike Dempsey and Tony Smith from the Hyundai Studios in Jacksonville. Let’s send it back live to London as quarterback Trevor Lawrence is at the postgame podium. you know, we fourth and I think the first one was fourth and six, you know, down there in the red zone and um we were down 21 like you said into the first half and we felt like we needed to score a touchdown to to you know, I don’t want to say to stay in it, but you know, we we need to score points and at that point being down three scores, you want to score touchdowns over field goals. So, um and felt like we had a decent call and give us a shot to get the first down potentially. So, that was the thought there. And then in the second half, obviously when you’re down multiple scores, third, late third quarter, early fourth quarter, you kind of got to just go for those and stay on the field and give yourself a chance. Let’s go to big game obviously first. Yeah, you know, Travis did some great things today. I mean, you see, everybody sees how special he is when you give him opportunities and um I felt like I was able to find him a little bit more today than in the past. And um and even still there, I think there’s so much that we can learn from and grow from and like our chemistry and seeing the game the same. I think it’s getting there and I think that’s why you see in the second half some improvements and um us connecting more, but there’s still a lot of meat on the bone for us to take advantage of honestly. So, I’m excited for that and we just got to continue to get better. you know, obviously that was good to see him, you know, more involved and to make those plays and just continues to make plays and shows up when he needs to. So, that’s that’s great. You know, it’s good note for me as a quarterback just obviously to keep in the back of my mind that he just makes plays, you know, whenever the ball comes to him. But, um, a lot of things that we still can clean up, but I thought he did some some great things today. Uh, it’s a not necessarily, you know, it’s he’s kind of an alert there. If you get a if you get a match up, you get a look. You know, they were playing a cover three version and could have thrown the out the quick out to Parker. Um, but the corner tied down and I felt like we had a match up there with the safety and Travis did a good job fighting through. They were holding them. That’s why we got the flag and but fought through the contact, still made the play on the ball and uh, yeah, did you know did some good stuff for sure. All right, there is quarterback Trevor Lawrence obviously remarking on the day that Travis Hunter had today. really the lone bright spot in otherwise dismal Jaguars performance Tony which though brings us perfectly to the Jaguars radio network player of the game voting usually I get a vote JP Shatter gets a vote Fred Taylor gets a vote and a half do you want all the votes today I don’t think I don’t think I think there’s only one name that’s there’s not much dissension coming here well who do you got for the player of the game that would be Travis Honer yeah and even more so in that he scores his first touchdown of his career it’s not a short play that he scores it on, right? It’s a 34 yard catch. Pretty good route, right, for him. He gets into the end zone for the first time. He goes over 100 yards for the first time, but he scores that touchdown and having some kind of fuel for where they were in the game just kind of walked off, right? Like even with people trying to come up and kind of celebrate with him, he’s like, there’s nothing to celebrate. He wants to win. Yeah. Like the attitude of him, hopefully that rubs off on the entire team. Uh Travis Hunter, eight catches, 101 yards, a touchdown, had a pass breakup on defense as well. Caught eight of 14 targets. You know what Travis Hunter does the best uh among the wide receivers. He catches the football. Tony, the ball hits him in the hands. It generally stays right there.

Mike Dempsey and Tony Smith from the Hyundai studios at the Miller Electric Center in downtown Jacksonville. The injury report today presented by UF Health, the proud healthc care partner of the Jacksonville Jaguars. Tony, uh, if you noticed any other ones, please definitely let me know. But, uh, these are the ones that caught my ear listening to the broadcast, uh, with Frank and Jeff Logan today and watching, uh, the NFL Network coverage. Jordan Lewis left with an arm shoulder injury fairly early. He was able to return to the game. Uh Eric Murray has been dealing with kind of a neck issue. He left. He was able to come back in the game. Deami Brown went down uh on kind of like a sliding catch attempt. Looked like that maybe he lost his footing. Might have been like a calf issue, but he was able to come back as well. Leg got awkwardly kind of caught underneath him. Yeah. Right. His leg. So ankle, knee. He stayed down for a little bit, but he was able to get back up. Did come back in. And then uh though the the weird one, Brian Thomas Jr. late in the game is running his his right bicep looked like it got touched by an LA Ram defender. Yeah. But didn’t look like any kind of forceful contact or anything like that. It felt like maybe that was a lingering effect of the drop that he had earlier where he kind of landed awkwardly on that possibly and then it just kind of flared up when he moved it a certain way. Something happened. Yeah. But that’s one to keep an eye on. I don’t think he got back on the field after that. Uh BTJ. So right arm hanging by his side. That’s usually, you know, a sign of a shoulder issue of some kind. He’s got the by-week coming up. But I mean, look, um it’s the hands, not the shoulder that’s been the issue with Brian Thomas Jr. this year, Tone. And I don’t know how you fix it. How do you fix drops other than stop dropping the football? Start catching. I mean, it’s become contagious. Parker Washington is supposed to be the shorthanded one among the veterans here. He drops one on third and 15 that would have converted it right over the middle. Hit him I think right in the face mask after it went right through both hands. So uh Deami Brown didn’t really put his body in jeopardy on a ball over the middle. He stuck a hand out. Needed to go for it with both hands. I thought had a chance to catch it. Probably take a hit in the process but that’s what they’re paying you $10 million for. Got to catch that ball. Take that hit. Too much of a plague of drops. continuing with most of the pass catchers on this football team. Yeah, I think Parker has had two games this year where he’s had a really bad drop issue, right? But it’s been two games. They haven’t played 50. They’ve played seven. You know, like it’s this is not something that you can have going on with a guy who’s supposed to be the third or fourth target for your football team. Well, he was going to be featured way more than that today, but he didn’t take advantage of that opportunity. And look, we’ve been talking about the Brian Thomas Jr. thing since it crept up week one, right? And it’s never really completely gone away. It felt like last week maybe it was kind of going away for Brian Thomas Jr., but it’s certainly not gone. The only other one I would mention is Tim Patrick left with a groin injury. That’s right. And was unable to return. There you go. And uh well that’s uh you know five different players but uh several of them the guys in the secondary Debi Brown able to get back on the practice field by week probably coming at a good time for a number of guys with some bumps and bruises along the way. And you know the other issue tone that I talked about with Bucky and Brian a little bit earlier uh in the post game. Cam Little now I mean what is the the trust factor that you could possibly have in this guy? And I understand the conditions weren’t perfect today, but you’ve got to make your kicks. And from what I understood, social media said he was making them in warm-ups, piping them right down the middle, gets out there, misses his first one. It’s not the miss, Tony. It was to me the reaction that he had sitting on the bench, kind of that I can’t understand what’s going on. Why is this happening? You know, that that’s what I interpreted his facial expression uh to be. And you know that they were talking about it earlier, uh, Bucky and Brian, that he’s never really had a stretch where he hasn’t been successful. He had never missed an extra point in his football career. Yeah. And then he finally did. And now, you know, he was Mr. Automatic. Only missed two as a rookie, two kicks of any kind as a rookie. And right now, you know, like I get it. You got to a certain point. You’re down 21. You can’t settle for three even if you think he’s going to make them. But you wonder if this is going to make Liam Cohen coming out of the buy more aggressive when the Jags start to get in that longer field goal range and not settle for Cam Little to come in and try to kick it. Yeah, I think it’s something we talked about this week after the game that he had against Seattle that it’s not a we need to replace him, but you at least have your eyes on do we have to start thinking about what we’re doing at kicker, right, for the football team and does he play well enough this week in London that those kind of questions just disappear? And if he had made the kick that he had the opportunity to make today, there’s no more issues, right? It’s like, oh, he’s fine, right? Like that would have been the reaction to it. Oh, he’s fine. But it there is this thing with kickers. It’s this weird thing and I do have it in the back of my head. I He’s a talented enough guy that if the he’s coming to the end of the road here in Jacksonville, not that he’s at the end of it, but if this continues and they have to replace him as the kicker, would I be surprised if he landed on another roster? I would think he’d be immediately claimed and potentially become one of the best kickers in the league. That’s why it’s so important to get this issue ironed out because he has the potential to be elite at his position. And you invested it, maybe it wasn’t this regime, but the team invested a draft pick and it looked like a well spent draft pick. And right now, uh, what is supposed to be the most automatic aspect of your operation is anything but. Yeah. And it kind of, you know, we were having the conversation a moment ago as well about the Brian Thomas Jr. thing and what’s going on with that. And I think going into the season, Brian Thomas Jr. and Cam Little, obviously different ranges of players. There’s different we need to rely on them levels with these guys, but they were guys that you thought were rock solid, right, going into the season, and they just haven’t been to this point in the season. They’re still trying to figure out exactly how to feature Travis Hunter in the offense. Am I surprised that the offensive line looked as good as it did for the first month and has struggled the way that it has the last three weeks? Not really. you know, not not compared to where I was going into the season. Am I surprised that they’ve run into a stretch where the offensive line is playing about where I thought they might be going into the year? Now, I didn’t expect the sack numbers that we’re seeing. It’s crazy the sacks that they’ve given up here in the last couple weeks, but I’m not surprised if at any point this year the offensive line isn’t great. I don’t think they’re a football team that can afford for Brian Thomas Jr. to not be great. And with all that going on for your kicker to be a question when you send them out, they just they’re not good enough in a bunch of areas on the field for those things to be an issue for them as well. It’s too much for this team as they’re constructed to overcome. I understand your point about like where you thought they were in the preseason, what you’d expect of them. But after that first month when they went, you know, San Francisco game, they didn’t let Trevor Lawrence get touched. And I get it, they didn’t have Nick Bosa, but man, this is still a professional football team. I thought they had raised their level of play and right now they’re backsliding in a big big way. All right, folks. Uh we’ve got one segment to go here on the post game and we’ll come back and preview what’s ahead. Not next week. Next week’s the buy mercifully for the Jaguars.

Mike Dempsey and Tony Smith in the Hyundai studios as the Jags fall to the LA Rams. Let’s pause 10 seconds for station identification on the Jacksonville Jaguars radio network. All right, Tony, here it comes. The positive spin moving forward. All right, the Jags are four and three. They’re above 500. Uh, I don’t know what you exactly had them at. I had them at in the off season going through game by game, two and five at this point. But you look at the back half of the schedule, you thought, “Oh, a lot of games they can get here.” Now, the Colts are a much more difficult out than maybe we anticipated, but I still had them getting to nine wins with only two at the buy. So, there’s a lot out in front of it uh for the Jacksonville Jaguar football team right now. They’ve got the by-week next week, but I do think that these two performances backtoback make you beware that some of these games that maybe you took a little bit for granted, like, “Hey, man, the Las Vegas Raiders are terrible.” Well, guess who can wreck your game? Max Crosby. And if they’re not protecting Trevor Lawrence any better, there’s no team in the National Football League uh that can’t beat this football team. They’ve got two weeks to get a lot of mistakes uh corrected, clean things up, and then hopefully put this behind them and get back on their winning ways. Yeah, we’ll see what the Colts do here in the next couple of weeks, right? Which early in the season that was kind of you could watch in the division for what was going to happen with that. They got the win at home uh early in the year against Houston. Well, now you get the by-week and coming out of the buy, you’re going to Houston and after losing a couple games in a row, it does feel like it’s, you know, games at any point in the season don’t aren’t really make or break, but it does feel like a which direction are you going? Well, you get Vegas first. Yeah. So, you you get that one to try to get to five and then you do take that trip to Houston, right? It’s just which direction are you going in this season, right? It and it feels like they’re at that point with the way that they played the last couple of weeks. I I don’t know how you fix what’s going on on the offensive line. I mean, how do you give up all Trevor Lawrence is under assault every snap right now? It’s there’s nothing getting done up front and Trevor’s having his own issues with his own accuracy in these kind of things. I don’t know how much of that is directly affected by one or the other. They dropped the ball all over the place today. Like there’s just so much going on for this football team. The turnovers have dried up. They had 13 in the first three weeks. They’ve had one since then. Right now, it was a big one on Monday Night Football, the Deon Lloyd interception return, but they’ve had one in the last three weeks. And it feels like they are more and more a team that is completely relying on the turnover for their success on defense because they’re not getting pass rush right now. Maybe it’s a healthy Trayvon Walker is the real key to whatever they’re going to get done. Maybe it is. And that healthy pass rush fuels turnovers obviously as well when you when you you know make those quarterbacks uh hurry up a little bit. I I’m wondering after two weeks off if we don’t see Wyatt Milm uh make a starting debut somewhere or at least get some consideration or some reps on this offensive line uh because somebody needs to be pushed at this stage. Probably a lot of people do. All right folks, for those on our flagship station 1010 XL in Jacksonville, stick around. on the Scoreboard Show. Coming up next, Mike Dempsey and Tony Smith will stick around with you. For those on the network outside of Jacksonville, we invite you to join us on jaguars.com or the Jaguars YouTube channel for Brian Ston and Bucky Brooks and our entire crew JP Shadric as well. I’m Mike Dempsey saying good afternoon from Jacksonville, Florida, where the final score in London was the LA Rams 35 and your Jaguars 7 on the Jaguars Radio Network. [Music] Welcome to the Jaguars Scoreboard Show. JP Shadedric, Mike Dempsey, and Bucky Brooks will take your calls about today’s game and take a look at the rest of the league. The Jaguars Scoreboard Show is brought to you by Farah and Farah. What a burger, the University of Florida, and by Everbank. The Jaguars Scoreboard Show starts right now. All right, we usually like to start it off with a cry of scoreboard, but that’s when the Jaguars win the game. Uh the scoreboard ugly today 35 to7 in favor of the LA Rams. I’m Mike Dempsey along with Tony Smith from the Hyundai studios here at the Miller Electric Center in Jacksonville. And uh Tony really uh outside of Travis Hunter. Almost nothing went right for the Jacksonville Jaguars today. And you hope that the by-week is coming at the appropriate time because you know recent uh iterations of the Jags opted not to take the by-week. I think they need it. They need to self scout. They certainly need uh a rest bit from the pass rush from the NFC West that has been crushing them for the last couple of weeks. They’ve got to get things righted here. There’s still a lot of football left. I know that’s cliche, but there are 10 games left on this schedule for the Jags and a lot of winnable ones. You got the Tennessee Titans twice. You got the winless Jets. You’ve got the one-win Las Vegas Raiders, just to name a few. So, there are opportunities here for this football team, but they have got to get the mistakes ironed out, get rid of some of these penalties. You’re not going to go penalty-free very often, but you can’t have double digits uh almost every single week. The the rare exception was that Kansas City Monday night game, 13 for 119 today with several more that were called that were declined. Yeah, they’re a team that, you know, you and I have had plenty of discussions, right? We do it every day on the show. It’s what is the identity of this Jaguars team, right? And we could talk about what they want the identity to be, but what the identity of this football team is right now is sloppy, right? And it’s sloppy all over the place, right? And it’s it’s in a bunch of different areas that they’re having that kind of thing. We discussed during the postgame, things that they thought they could rely on going into the season are not reliable for the football team right now. So, what do you fall back on? I don’t know. You know, fundamentals. That’s what you always hear, right? But what does that translate to? It’s week one of the preseason all over again when they couldn’t get their feet on the ground on defense, right? When Pittsburgh was just running quick and they couldn’t get set on defense. It feels like it’s not those kind of issues, but it’s those kind of issues for the football team right now from a, you know, the thousandm high view of what’s going on with this football team right now. They’re just unsettled in such a wide variety of ways. at least last week against Seattle when it got to a point in that second half I was watching it feeling like I think they can play themselves back into this right I felt that way the whole time against Kansas City they’re going to play themselves back into this game that’s how I felt when they were playing the Chiefs not for a moment from kickoff today I feel like they were even there well look last week I mean as ugly as it got it was a one-sore game it was a onep possession game at least an eight-point game and you felt like man if your kicker had made some makeable kicks, you could have, the endgame could have played out differently. You’re right. This week there was, you know, if the Rams needed to score 14 more, they would have done it. That’s how I I mean, I we talked about it earlier. They took their foot off the gas with about two minutes to go in the first half and then for the entire third quarter, they’re just like, “All right, let’s let this clock run. Let’s eat it up. Let’s get to the fourth quarter. As long as we don’t make a massive mistake, the Jacksonville Jaguars are not going to beat us today.” Hey. All right. So, no phone calls today on the scoreboard show, but you’ll have your opportunity if you want to get in with Hacker & Company on the fifth quarter when we wrap up. Still plenty to get to here, though. Live from the Hyundai Studios at the Miller Electric Center. Jaguars fall to the LA Rams 35 to7. This is the scoreboard show on Jaguars Radio.

[Music] We continue on the scoreboard show. Unfortunately, the bad score for the Jags is the Rams putting up 35 on them. The Jaguars only managed seven today in London and they will limp home with a 4 and3 record and the first small losing streak under the uh the toutelage of Liam Cohen as head coach. Tony, the play of the game presented by Coy Fence since 1927. They’ve been around the block and they fenced it too. And uh this should be an as obvious as the play of the game voting was in the postgame earlier. Uh the play of the game was Trevor Lawrence dropping back on a second and three and finding Travis Hunter for a 35 yd touchdown. Hunter’s first score of his NFL career overcame a illegal contact penalty u on the LA Rams on that play. So that was obviously decline. Cam Little kicked the extra point through. But Travis Hunter the first of what we hope are many many touchdowns. Part of an eight catch 101 yard day on 14 targets. And there were a lot of talk on the broadcast today, Tone, and in the postgame with Bucky and Brian, uh, that this has to be the guy that is looked at as your new number one wide receiver. And the only issue I have with that is, can they grow what they want him to be? As they said, we don’t want to put too much on him in his rookie year. We’re going to only teach him to play like the flanker position. He’s not going to play outside. So, can you be that if you can’t play multiple spots on the offense, or is he just good enough at what he does that by default he’s going to be kind of the Jaguars leading go-to guy in the passing game? Yeah, I think it’s something they have to think about going into the buy. It’s not like they’re on the practice field a whole bunch during the by-week, obviously, right? That’s why it’s a by-week. So, the work’s not going to get done until the week after that, but they have to think about how they want to approach those kind of things. And with Hunter specifically and the way Brian Thomas Jr. is struggling, you know, through the first seven games of the year, they they want to build this thing around him. You could see the targets are saying they’ve never backed off of that, right? Like they they still want the offense to run through Brian Thomas Jr. He’s not playing like a guy the offense needs to run through right now. Travis Hunter might be the guy that they can run the offense through. At some point, do they have to think about we just got to give him more, right? like we had a plan for this is what we want to do. We haven’t seen any indication that he can’t handle more than we’re giving him. At at some point, do you just say just give him more and let’s see how he reacts to it. And if it does look like it’s a problem, then we can back back off of this thing. I think you probably have to, right? And then we’ll see what that looks like. But for now, with all the struggles they’re having on offense and look, Trevor Lawrence, he’s just got to be more accurate like like there are big issues with that to this point. and we’re halfway through his first season in this offense basically now. And there have been moments where it looked like it was coming on a little bit, but it’s not happening fast enough for the team to be effective on offense right now. And his accuracy is killing him. Well, look, he missed Travis CT swing out of the backfield, threw it on the ground two feet in front of him. Now, I don’t know if that ball slipped out of his hand. He almost fell out of his hand, but he missed. Johnny Mut uh sailed it two feet over his head on what should have been a simple completion. It’s it’s pitch and catch on a lot of these and that is, you know, the the he’ll rip a an amazing 35 yard dart to somebody and then he’ll miss the seven yard to the next guy. It feels like in the NFL you can have you had a guy that was open and you threw it a little offtarget once, right? Like in a game it’s like, “All right, I missed it on that one.” it, but you can’t have it happen five, six, seven times a game where it’s just, well, if he’s just accurate with it, the sticks keep moving. We’re making big plays. Like, these kinds of things are happening. Now, we still wound up with 296, but who cares? Like, you didn’t feel that yardage at all. No, in the game today from Trevor Lawrence. And as you know, because again, we talk about this every day. I’ve been a big kind of proponent and defender in a lot of ways of Trevor Lawrence, but we’re halfway through this season with this this install coming in and I’m not seeing anywhere near the kind of improvement I thought we’d be seeing, right? He’s got to be taking steps and making progress in this offense and as a player in general. And we thought Liam Cohen would scheme some things up, some easy throws. That’s the problem. Sometimes he misses the easy throws. So, look, they they’ve got issues, but you talked about this team not having an identity. Uh Liam Con did when he took over the team say, “Hey, we want to run the offense through Brian Thomas.” That kind of evolved over the summer to, “Hey, we want to be a a running football team. We want that to be our identity to kind of now, hey, our identity is going to be we got this unicorn weapon in Travis Hunter, right?” Partly because well, ETN averaged 5.5 yards per carry today. That number kind of shocks me. It didn’t look like the Jags running game to me was all that effective. And when you fall behind like they did, you can’t be a running team. They attempted 19 runs today. That includes two scrambles by Trevor Lawrence. So 17 designed runs. They threw it 48 times today. And that doesn’t even include the sacks that he took. So they were going to throw it well over 50 times. They ran it less than 20. Uh total imbalance. uh you can’t get ETN going. Beijel Tutin’s basically an afterthought right now and that’s it. You’re just not getting anything generated with that run game, at least in terms of overall big numbers. Again, the average per carry was fine for both of those guys. You didn’t have the ability falling behind by 21 in the first half to stick with the run. Jaguars scoreboard show presented by Everbank.

Coil and Suns keeping your business and home safe for nearly a century. Welcome back. The scoreboard show rolls on here. Mike Dempsey, Tony Smith at the Hyundai studios at the Miller Electric Center in Jacksonville as the uh whole operation packing up and getting ready to get on a plane and head back from London, licking their wounds after a 35-7 loss at the hands of the LA Rams on a day where yes, it was a breakout of sorts offensively at least for Travis Hunter, but it was a breakdown in a lot of other categories for the Jacksonville Jaguars. So now Tony, you look ahead to the next couple of weeks and one thing that we know is coming up on the horizon is the NFL trade deadline, November 4th. So we still got a few weeks to go, but we’ve seen moves in recent days where James Gladstone has restructured some of the contracts of the Jacksonville Jaguars, including Greg Newsome, who they’ve just acquired, converted his salary to a signing bonus. They’ve created about 12 million in cap space. They’ve talked about being aggressive and adding players. They don’t want to settle and just look at this as a long-term build. They want to win now if they possibly can. And it is pretty wide open in the AFC. So, as things stand today, factoring in what you saw on the field today, if there’s one position that a guy could come in and help this football team the most, what is that position that you would desire? Defensive tackle. Somebody that can give you some kind of push from the interior, the defensive line. And I don’t know that it’s particularly close, right, for what would be next on my list. I I saw Look, Trayvon’s dealing with what Trayvon’s dealing with. And I’m not surprised that he’s having issues creating pressure with only one hand to use while he’s trying to do it. I I as we mentioned going through the stats, Josh Hines Allen still wound up with three quarterback hits today. He’s the only guy that ever had an effective pass rush basically in the entire game. And he did do it about seven, eight times. He had a really good pass rush. Well, nobody else won on the entire line of scrimmage. When he would have a good rush, it was like flashing back to two and three years ago with the stuff that Josh was dealing with where he would win. His guy, nobody else would win, would even come close to winning. They have to have something on the interior. And I think Trayvon will be back and he’ll be fine, but he’s not healthy right now. So when they have both those guys healthy again, I think they’re going to be what we saw potentially early in the season from the two of those guys creating the pressure on the outside, but they got nothing going on in the middle. Yeah. And it showed up so much today. Like you would see Josh coming around the edge. Stafford would take a step up. There’s nothing like it’s not a threat to the quarterback when all he has to do is take one step forward and there’s nothing getting pushed in the middle of the pocket. Yeah, Stafford was under zero duress for most of the day today. And look, yes, I agree. I think there are a lot of places they could use the help right now. Um I I don’t know if they’re going to be able to add that many pieces to the mix. I do think they miss Britain Strange and his toughness incredibly. He’s a tone setter for this offense. And you talk about not being able to run the ball as effectively as you’d like. He is one of the key reasons why with him not being available right now. So, the Jags have a lot of questions they need to answer amongst themselves as we move forward throughout the next couple of weeks with this bye-week coming up next week. And by the way, if you want to get in and weigh in on any of this stuff, the fifth quarter is coming up when Tony and I go off the uh Jaguars fall to the LA Rams 35-7 in London. and uh the Jaguars broadcast booth, including ours today, presented by Heritage of North Florida, Jacksonville’s premier roofing and remodeling company. 35 to7 Jags Ball to the LA Rams.

Final couple of segments to go before we hand things off to the fifth quarter as the Jaguars fall 35 to7. Since this is the scoreboard show, uh we don’t always get to do this. Here’s all the early games in progress, Tony, including the division rival Tennessee Titans at home against the New England Patriots. Mike Brabbel’s return to Nashville and New England has a 17-13 lead. Kahan Booty with a touchdown uh before the half to provide that four-point margin for New England. Other games at the half, Kansas City has welcomed back Rasheed Rice and he has responded with a pair of touchdowns. Patrick Mahomes has thrown three and it’s 21 to nothing. Hey, that was a familiar score. Chiefs on top of the Raiders. Eagles lead the Vikings 14 to6. Is this the Carson Wentz revenge game or is this the Eagles revenge game on Carson Wentz? Wentz has been picked off twice as the starting quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings today. Uh, and one of those was returned for a touchdown. Yet, uh, only one offensive score for Philadelphia that came from AJ Brown on an aerial from Jaylen Herz. 14 to6 Eagles on top there. Uh the Panthers on top of the Jets 10 to3 that game nearing the half despite the fact that Rico Dowel had gone for over 400 yards rushing in the last two games combined. The Panthers went right back to Chuba Huard who’s been kind of middling in this first half. The Browns have a 17 to6 lead at the half. It was what’s supposed to be the worst weather game of the day. Uh wind gusts up in the 50 mph range. A lot of wind obviously a lot of rain. uh soggy conditions. And then finally, the Bears on top of the Saints right now, 20 to nothing. Later on today, Indianapolis uh tries to improve their record to six and one. They’re currently at top the AFC South. They’re in Los Angeles to take on the Chargers. And the Houston Texans don’t look now. Looking to win their third in a row, Tony, after the Jags beat them in week three. They had their buy already, and they’re in Seattle to take on the same Seahawk team that beeled the Jaguars on the offensive line. That’s uh the second of the Monday night double header this week. So, look, um you know, best case scenario, Chargers beat the Colts, Texans lose on Monday night, Titans decide to shut down the franchise just because they’re the Titans. That probably won’t happen. But, you know, uh if everybody loses in the AFC South, that’s the best you can hope for. Uh now that the Jags have already fallen in week seven. Yeah, I saw Jeffrey Simmons left that Titans game with some kind of injury um already today. Not sure if he’s going to be able to get back on the field there uh for Tennessee, but yeah, now that the the Jaguars are in full scoreboard watch mode, and they’re in that mode for a couple of weeks now, right? Like it’s the rest of today and it’ll be next week while they’re on the buy as well. We’ll see what the like I think there are a lot of Chargers fans in Jacksonville today, right? And whatever the contingent was before the result against the Rams, it can only have gotten bigger after their result today against the Rams. the the Colts need to start losing some ball games um if the Jags are going to be able to keep pace with them, right? Or and the Jags are going to have to take care of their own business in those head-to-head matchups in the second half of the year. All right, folks. Uh one more little segment to go.

Coming down the stretch here on the scoreboard show, the fifth quarter with Hacker and Company coming up in just minutes on 1010 XL. Of course, tomorrow Tony David Gard will join us in studio and we’ll welcome in reaction to the Jags beatd down at the hands of the LA Rams 35 to7 on Jaguars today from 10 to noon here on 1010 XL. Over the next couple weeks, a lot of things can get accomplished. top of my wish list is figuring out the line of scrimmage a on both sides, but particularly the pass protection and I hope maybe a recommitment to the running game can take some of the pressure off because that’ll slow down the pass rush. I mean, if you want to be a running team Mhm. and you want to invest in this and you spent a couple of draft picks on running backs and you bring in these offensive linemen, let’s see it. And if it’s it’s got to be effective. It’s got to be something you stick with. I’m not saying you have to go for 200 like they did in the opener, but you’ve got to be better than you’ve been. You got to be a little bit more balanced. I do think Wyatt Milo can factor in to this situation. And then just find more ways to feature Travis Hunter. He is the one guy that you feel like is delivering when he gets his opportunities. It’s the harsh but very real reality of the NFL. If the lines of scrimmage, both of them don’t improve for the Jacksonville Jaguars, they’ve won their last game in 2025, right? Like that’s the harsh reality of the NFL. If they can’t block any better or affect the opposing quarterback any better than they have in the last couple of weeks, they’re not going to win again. So, they got to figure these kind of things out. They got to do it now. It was way better in both those areas early in the season. That’s why they won a bunch of the games that they won. But, it’s miserably bad right now. You got a by-week to figure some of those things out. I do think Wyatt Milm needs to get a look because they’re having a bunch of I don’t even know who you take off. I don’t either. But he needs to get in the mix, right? And and at least be an option for this team. They’re at that point in the season where if they can’t figure those kind of things out, then a really good start could just be flatout squandered for the football team.
