Duval Hot Takes

Once again, the Jacksonville Jaguars put up a surprisingly competent performance against the Philadelphia Eagles, only to piss it away in one play. Sean has lost his mind and is no longer the optimist we once knew. What can be done about this inept Jags team?

The Jacksonville Jaguars put up a better fight against the Green Bay Packers than we were expecting...but all that does is piss us off more. Sean and Pat have lost hope after seeing some key players injured in the last game (and other key players completely absent). 2-6 is not where you want to be when facing off against the Philadelphia Eagles, but maybe Brenton "The Seal" Strange is exactly what we need to turn it around.

The Jacksonville Jaguars may have surprised us with a victory over the Patriots, but unfortunately it is too little, too late. The 2-5 Jags return home to a gauntlet against some of the NFL's best, starting with the 5-2 Green Bay Packers. Sean and Pat saw some standout performances last week; listen in to see if they think we have what it takes to keep it up this Sunday.

Another pod delay due to Hurricane Milton, and the Jaguars are worse than ever after losing to the Bears in their first London game of the season. With the Jags at 1-5 going into week 7, Sean and Pat are struggling to find a reason to wake up early this Sunday. If the Jaguars can't pull a victory out of this match against the Patriots, is there any hope at all for the remainder of the season?

We return after complications from Hurricane Helene, and what do we find? After back-to-back losses to the Buffalo Bills and then division rivals Houston Texans, the 2024 season outlook is as bleak as it can get for the now 0-4 Jacksonville Jaguars. Sean and Pat turn their attention from the coaching staff to the quarterback as they try to identify what most needs to change in order to secure a victory against the incoming Indianapolis Colts.

The Jacksonville Jaguars are 0-2 and Duval is in an uproar. Sean and Pat have already had enough of the soft offense and spineless coaching. Is it possible to turn things around week 3 against the Buffalo Bills on their turf?

Despite a commanding first half, the Jacksonville Jaguars left Week 1 with a 17-20 loss against the Miami Dolphins. Sean and Pat saw plenty of great things on the field, but the problems remain as glaring as ever. Tune in to hear what needs to change before the Cleveland Browns come to Duval.

Sean and Pat give a brief overview on the Jaguars' performance in the preseason and bring those evaluations to their Week 1 preview against the Miami Dolphins.

The Jacksonville Jaguars may not have as many primetime games this coming season, but Sean and Pat are still excited for the 2024 lineup. It's time to go game by game and predict the outcomes for each matchup in this episode of the Duval Hot Takes podcast!

DHT returns from our offseason break! Sean and Pat recap the end of the Jaguars 2023 season and the lessons learned, then it's time to bask in the glory of Trevor Lawrence's 5-year contract. There's a lot to catch up on, so buckle up and let the takes fly! 

We return from holiday break eager to cover the Jaguars' 26-0 victory over the Carolina Panthers. The Jags seem to be fired up now that some key elements are returning to the fray. Sean and Pat identify those pieces and preview the pieces that will be most critical to our success in this game as well as the playoffs.

The Jaguars' performance Sunday night against the Baltimore Ravens was underwhelming to say the least. As everything seems to be falling apart, Sean and Pat take a guess at what (or who) is the main culprit. Can we get it figured out and win these last three games, or is our first place hold on the division slipping away?

The Jaguars lost another game last week, this time to the Cleveland Browns. Even so, Sean and Pat aren't ready to call it quits on the season. Our last major hurdle is this Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens. Do our hosts think we have any hope of winning against the league's best? Tune in to find out!

The Jacksonville Jaguars lost to the Cincinnati Bengals Monday night. With Trevor Lawrence injured alongside Cristian Kirk and Tyson Campbell, fans are worrying that our hold over the division may slip away. Sean and Pat are here to tell you what went wrong and what needs to go right if we want to win against the Browns on Sunday.

CJ Stroud and the Houston Texans put up a tough fight, but the Jacksonville Jaguars still got away with a 24-21 win thanks to a doinked field goal in the final moments of the game. Jaguars are now coming home to take on the Bengals in a Monday night matchup, and all the pieces are in place for another Jaguars win. But Sean and Pat have been around long enough to know this game could be trouble...

The Jaguars scoring a big win over the Tennessee Titans here at home was just what we needed. Sean and Pat are back on track and feeling confident about this week's match against the Houston Texans. Can a 7-3 Jaguars team stay hungry and stop the Texans curse? Or does the emerging CJ Stroud have what it takes to steal the division from us? 

The Jaguars got mollywhopped by the 49ers last week in one of the most embarrassing displays we've seen all year. Is this a testament to the 49ers' status as an elite team? Or is this a sign that we aren't going to get away with miracles anymore? Tune in to hear Sean and Pat recap the worst parts of the game and the impact this performance has on our outlook vs the Titans.

The Jacksonville Jaguars are about to receive a visit from the San Fransisco 49ers. Both teams had a chance to rest this past bye week, so the question is: Who comes correct? The team with five straight wins, or the team with three straight losses? Sean and Pat identify the 49ers weaknesses that the Jags will need to hammer if they want to start the upcoming gauntlet on the right foot. 

After securing their 5th win in a row and achieving a record of 6-2, it's safe to say the Jaguars have more than earned their rest this week. Sean and Pat review our victory over the Pittsburg Steelers and look forward to the return of our heavy hitters as we enter the Bye week.

The 5-2 (!!!) Jacksonville Jaguars finally get a long week to rejuvenate after beating the New Orleans Saints last Thursday. Sean and Pat's list of complaints is slowly getting smaller, but there are still issues to fix before we head to Pittsburgh and beyond. Could we make some last minute trades to address these concerns before deadline? Hear what our hosts think in this latest episode of the Duval Hot Takes podcast!

The Jaguars are now 4-2 after a dominating performance against the Indianapolis Colts. Sean and Pat only have a few notes before we turn our attention to the Jags' first primetime appearance against the New Orleans Saints. 

The Jaguars went 2-0 in London after defeating the Falcons and the Bills, but Sean and Pat still have plenty to ask of this team before the Gardner Minshew-led Colts come to Jacksonville for a rematch.

Jaguars are victorious in London! A 23-7 win against the Atlanta Falcons puts the Jags in a much better position to take on the approaching Buffalo Bills. Sean and Pat asses the dwindling Bills defense and hope for a Zay Jones resurgence in Week 5.

Jaguars fans are PISSED after losing to the Texans in a game that should have picked us up before hopping on a plane to London. Sean and Pat call out their biggest concerns and reevaluate whether we can still win in Week 4 against the Atlanta Falcons.

Ouch... We knew the Jaguars would probably lose to the Chiefs, but missing so many opportunities to win took the wind out of our sails. Sean and Pat recount the offensive failures and stress the importance of getting right against the Texans before the season continues.

Jags snag their first win of the season in Game 1 against the Indianapolis Colts, and now it's time to take on the Chiefs here at home. Sean and Pat review their Week 1 highlights and share their thoughts on Press Taylor's play calling. Is a win against the 0-1 Chiefs possible, or do Chris Jones and Travis Kelce spell disaster for us? 

The time has finally come for Sean and Pat's season prediction. The Jags' success last year has us feeling frosty, but one of our hosts is trying to keep his expectations in check. Tune in to find hear how we think this season will go, starting with Game 1 at Indianapolis!

Just a quick episode covering some of the early roster cuts we're seeing after the Jaguars' preseason victory against the Dolphins. Sean has some choice words about the decision to end the game eight minutes early. 3-0 in the preseason may not sound like much, but it sure feels good.

The Jaguars' second preseason game against the Detroit Lions gave us a much closer look at the winners and losers from each position, most importantly the running backs, wide receivers, and cornerbacks. It's time to make more cuts, so tune in and see if your favorite makes the team.

The Jaguars secured a 28-23 victory in their first preseason game against the Dallas Cowboys, and our hosts couldn't be happier to see Trevor Lawrence and Calvin Ridley out on the field. They also couldn't be happier to call out the worst performances from this game in the hopes that we trim some of the fat on this crowded roster. Listen in and see if you agree with our stars, studs and duds from this game!

The Jaguars first preseason game is this weekend against the Dallas Cowboys. With only three preseason games this year, Sean and Pat have very different ideas about who to watch. Starters or Depth? Offense or Defense? Also in this episode: a brief discussion on Krystal burgers vs socks.

There's just so...much...depth. With training camp well underway and the preseason just days away, the deadline to finalize the Jaguars 2023 roster is imminent. Sean and Pat go over camp performances and start locking in their favorites.

Also in this episode, the return of "Know Your Jaguar," a fun segment where we take a look at some Jags players and give them a good roast.

The time has come for the annual Duval Hot Takes UDFA Draft. Sean and Pat struggle to find undrafted players worthy of joining the Jaguars roster in the wake of a 13-strong draft just weeks ago. We also take a quick glance at the recently revealed 2023 schedule and share our thoughts on an additional London game.
