00:00You need wide receivers to win in football here.

00:02You made a trade this week.

00:03We're talking about the Jacksonville Jaguars, and they said, you know what?

00:06Let's beef up our wide receiving core.

00:08We're going to add Myers.

00:09Here's Liam Cohen talking about that situation now.

00:12Yeah, that's the exact is the challenge is the balance of, you know,

00:18how much you can handle, how quickly can you get some of the formations down,

00:22the timing, obviously a practice and some of the, you know,

00:26just throwing on air with Trev and getting some reps that way.

00:30But it will really come down to just, all right,

00:33what are the things specific that, you know,

00:35you want to get them in the flow of the game.

00:36You want to get them opportunities, but also just to go play as a Jaguar.

00:41Not necessarily every time he's in, it's something that he has to go and do.

00:44You just want to make sure there's a balance there.

00:47So that will be a process throughout this week and through each part of the plan.

00:54Okay, normal D&D, third downs, red zone.

00:56How much in those areas can you give them?

00:59And that's the balance for sure.

01:02Brian Thomas Jr. banged up there with that shoulder injury.

01:05You also talk about Travis Hunter, top three pick in the NFL draft this year.

01:09He's been out.

01:09He's going to be out a while here with that knee injury.

01:11So he needed some fortification at the wide receiver position.

01:14But you know what I'm intrigued by too, Joe?

01:15Give me late in the season.

01:16Give me into like December where all three of these guys are out there.

01:19That offense, I like what we're doing here in Jacksonville.

01:21Just don't think it's going to be enough possibly to make the playoffs and or win this division.

01:26Dude, you know, Hunter, I just don't get it.

01:29Like he hurt himself in practice, but he's got to be out now and I are for four weeks at least.

01:36And then they'll reevaluate him.

01:37But in the meantime, I think Jacksonville's key to success, Donnie, is going to be exactly what they've been doing.

01:43They have to be able to run the football.

01:46If they can, I think Myers will help them kind of, you know, bridge the gap until they can get some reinforcements back.
