1
00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:03,360
Speaker 1: On one hand, obviously a super efficient day for you,

2
00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:05,360
Speaker 1: But on the other hand, you guys got into the

3
00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:09,360
Speaker 1: red zone and couldn't get into the end zone. So

4
00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:12,400
Speaker 1: how did you feel about your personal performance? Yeah, I

5
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:15,840
Speaker 1: mean we won the game. I think obviously we moved

6
00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:17,880
Speaker 1: the ball pretty well today, so that's a fact, and

7
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 1: we got to be able to move it through that

8
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:22,800
Speaker 1: fringe area better and we've got to watch the tape

9
00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 1: and two we can do better. But I thought we

10
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 1: stayed together as a unit, didn't lose our cool and

11
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:31,360
Speaker 1: work together. They try to win, So obviously Marcus's return

12
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:33,880
Speaker 1: was the icing right there on the cake. But that's

13
00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:37,320
Speaker 1: a good football team in tough environment. They played really

14
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:40,239
Speaker 1: well and gotta give credit to them and happy that

15
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 1: we won. And that's a great divisional win. So it's

16
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:44,800
Speaker 1: a good start there and to this little run we're

17
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 1: gonna make here. So gotta just watch the film and

18
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 1: see where we can get better. Hey, Mac, just again

19
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 1: you kind of spoke to it, But thoughts on Marcus

20
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 1: Jones return, and you know how much of a relief

21
00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:57,320
Speaker 1: it was to not have to go into overtime and

22
00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:58,960
Speaker 1: try and got one out there instead of just you know,

23
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 1: the atmosphere on the sidelining. Just how that was for

24
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 1: you guys. Yeah, I think, um, that was great. I

25
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 1: think that shows why football's one of the greatest. It

26
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,959
Speaker 1: is the greatest team sport. It takes sixty minutes to

27
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:12,600
Speaker 1: win games in the NFL. Um you see that every week.

28
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:16,759
Speaker 1: So really proud of our team and offense, defense, special teams. Thought,

29
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 1: we came together and at the end of the day,

30
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,240
Speaker 1: in tough conditions like that, you just got to find

31
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 1: a way to win. So we did that and that's

32
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:26,960
Speaker 1: something to be proud of. So we're excited about this one.

33
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 1: And like I said, we got a quick turnaround, so

34
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:31,479
Speaker 1: going to be a lot of improvement to be made

35
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 1: and we know what we want to improve on, so

36
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:38,680
Speaker 1: we just gotta do it. Hey, Mac, you told us

37
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 1: earlier this week you did a full self audit and

38
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 1: I was reported this morning that a lot of that

39
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 1: audit was just about your timing of your drops and

40
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 1: them sinking with the routes. If that's true. How much

41
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 1: was that improved today and do you feel like that

42
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 1: contributed to you know, it was more of an efficient

43
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 1: passing year. Yeah, I think a little bit. Definitely improved

44
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 1: on that talked about any offense, timing space and all

45
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 1: that stuff, drop depth, everything. So definitely gonna look at

46
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 1: the film and see how it looks. But for the

47
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:08,960
Speaker 1: most part, felt like it was good and like I said,

48
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 1: tough conditions to play in, you know, twenty twenty five

49
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:13,640
Speaker 1: mile p hour wins. So proud of the guys for

50
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:15,919
Speaker 1: catching the ball and doing all that stuff. And the

51
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 1: lineman did good. I think some of those sacks are

52
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,080
Speaker 1: covered sacks and it kind of is what it is.

53
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,800
Speaker 1: That's football, right, You're in long yardage and they have

54
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 1: good players on the defensive side of the football. So

55
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,799
Speaker 1: and that team specifically with a defensive line so did

56
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,920
Speaker 1: some good things. Definitely want to get through the fringe

57
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 1: and score more touchdowns. Hey Mac guy, two parter for you. One,

58
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 1: I just want to ask you about some of the

59
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,080
Speaker 1: play action passes you guys were able to hit today

60
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 1: for big plays and what you thought of those. And

61
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 1: two just seems like you're trying to get the ball

62
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 1: to the running backs on the checkdowns maybe a little

63
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 1: bit faster today and they were able to make some

64
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:55,079
Speaker 1: plays with it. Yeah. I think UM play action passes

65
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,079
Speaker 1: a good part of every offense and UM you want

66
00:02:58,080 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 1: to be able to get the linebackers to come up

67
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,359
Speaker 1: and safeties and all that stuff. But I definitely want

68
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 1: to expand on that something we've done really well here

69
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 1: in the past, and just try to do that and

70
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: match it up with everything we're doing. So, like I said,

71
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:14,079
Speaker 1: I mean, there's quick throws, medium, long play action, RPO screens,

72
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:15,920
Speaker 1: all that stuff. So you want to be able to

73
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 1: do whatever you want, whenever you want. So we want

74
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,360
Speaker 1: to be able to do thousand offense and made some

75
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,680
Speaker 1: strides there today. But and then in terms of getting

76
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 1: the ball to the backs, I think you know that

77
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:31,080
Speaker 1: defense played more you know, zone like take away the

78
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 1: deep stuff covered, so I kinda have to watch the

79
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 1: film and see it. But for the most part, when

80
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 1: they do that, you have to take what the defense

81
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 1: gives and if they give you the deep ball, take it.

82
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 1: If they give you the short one, take it. So

83
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 1: that's all there is to it. And can't chase plays,

84
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 1: can't make up plays in your head. You got to

85
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 1: just operate the offense how it's supposed to be operated

86
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 1: Mac because you mentioned earlier you're able to move the

87
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,839
Speaker 1: football pretty well today, but kind of thirty thirty five

88
00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 1: yards in you struggled with execution. Is there a particular

89
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 1: reason you can kind of put your finger on as

90
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 1: to why it's been problematic executing in that area the field. Yeah,

91
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: I think it's super disappointing. We put too much work

92
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 1: into get that result. I think it starts with us

93
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 1: execution part and then obviously trying to figure something out here.

94
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 1: Just make it work and get through that, like you said,

95
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 1: thirty five forty yard line and just see if we

96
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 1: can get through that and then see what happens. Because

97
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 1: every time you're moving the ball towards the goal line,

98
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,839
Speaker 1: it's good. When you're going backwards for whatever reason, it's not.

99
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 1: So we want to be able to create those explosive plays,

100
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:36,919
Speaker 1: you know, like the Damien long run for example, and

101
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,720
Speaker 1: then finish off those drives. And we need to do

102
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 1: that in the red zone, we need to do it

103
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,360
Speaker 1: in the open field. But it comes down to execution

104
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:48,840
Speaker 1: and watch the film and see what we can do better. Mac.

105
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 1: It seemed like, especially in the first half, you and

106
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 1: Johnny Smith had a good connection going Just what'd you

107
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,280
Speaker 1: see from him today and what about that connection was

108
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 1: working for you? Yeah, john who was a great player,

109
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 1: he's a great teammate, does it. That's what he's supposed

110
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:02,279
Speaker 1: to do on every play. Him and Hunter do a

111
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 1: great job. So really happy to have those guys. You know,

112
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 1: want to be able to give him the ball as

113
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 1: much as possible. I like throwing to those guys, so

114
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 1: anyway we can, and John who's at unique speed for

115
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,840
Speaker 1: a tight end and also unique strength for run blocking

116
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 1: and things like that. So I definitely want to use

117
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,279
Speaker 1: those guys as best we can. And he did a

118
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,960
Speaker 1: good job. Yea, you mentioned wanting to go on a run.

119
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:26,919
Speaker 1: How feel do you How close do you feel the

120
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 1: offense is to getting over this hump? Yeah? I think

121
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,839
Speaker 1: it's a game by game thing. I think today was

122
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:35,840
Speaker 1: us against the Jets and really us against ourselves. So

123
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 1: you know, we want to do better. We want to

124
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: obviously score more than three points. It's not good enough,

125
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 1: so you know, got to look at it and too

126
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 1: we can do better. It's kind of the same story here,

127
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 1: so well we'll figure it out, but it takes time,

128
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,279
Speaker 1: and you know, execution that's what it comes down to,

129
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:55,600
Speaker 1: and putting points on the board and not turning the

130
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,360
Speaker 1: ball over as important, which we didn't do today. So

131
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 1: that's how we win games ninety that if we don't

132
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:07,359
Speaker 1: turn it over. Matth You you just got David Andrews back,

133
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:11,360
Speaker 1: and now it looks like you might miss him for

134
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 1: some time down the road. What kind of a loss

135
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 1: would that be if that comes to pass. Yeah, I

136
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 1: think David's a great player, great teammate, great leader. So

137
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,479
Speaker 1: definitely tough. But I think James does a great job

138
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: when he's in there. He's very smart football player, plays

139
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 1: with a lot of effort, and obviously you're gonna have

140
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 1: to shuffle some guys around. We had some injuries. Again,

141
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 1: that's football, and those guys are they're fighting every place.

142
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,279
Speaker 1: So that's all you can ask for is their attitude

143
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 1: and their effort. And I'm pleased to that group, and

144
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 1: we just want to score more points and get through

145
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 1: that fringe area and you know the story might be

146
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 1: a little bit different, all right. Thanks
