Sometimes, you know, it comes down 14 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 2: to situational awareness, being being more aware of what's about 15 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:48,960 Speaker 2: to happen, not not just third down, red area, but like, hey, 16 00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:51,880 Speaker 2: what does this front show us? You know, what should 17 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:55,760 Speaker 2: we anticipate? What is this you know, this safety being down? 18 00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 2: What does he show us? What should we anticipate? And 19 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:00,760 Speaker 2: just doing a better job of coaching that and making 20 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:02,640 Speaker 2: the players more aware of what we can do to 21 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 2: be better. I just think the bye week, you know, 22 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:08,320 Speaker 2: we work very hard on those things and hopefully hopefully 23 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:10,840 Speaker 2: we can improve because you know, we need to improve. 24 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:18,320 Speaker 4: Thank you, yep, Mark Daniels, followed by Sophie Roller. 25 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 5: Hi Bill heading into this weekend, is Mac Jones still 26 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:25,920 Speaker 5: your starting quarterback? And if not, who is your plan 27 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:28,639 Speaker 5: to start a quarterback against the Giants? 28 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 3: Yeah? 29 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:34,400 Speaker 2: For me, I basically get everybody ready to play, you know. 30 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 2: So what we try to do is every week, you know, 31 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 2: regardless of this week, two weeks ago, three weeks ago, 32 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 2: get Mac ready to play, get Bailey ready to play. 33 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 3: And that's what we do. 34 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 2: And so at the end of the day, you know, 35 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 2: Bill will make that decision at some point and we'll 36 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 2: go from there. But I do believe that we have 37 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 2: to we have to continue like we do all the 38 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 2: time to earn it on the practice field, coaches and players. 39 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 2: You know, we have to we have to practice better, 40 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 2: We have to earn it on the practice field all 41 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 2: the way around. 42 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 3: And that's you know, that's what we'll do. 43 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:15,799 Speaker 4: Sophie Roller Andrew killing him. 44 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 6: Hi Bill, I hope you had a goodbye week. I 45 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 6: just wanted to ask real quick if what you've seen 46 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 6: from Malik Cunningham in terms of if you feel he 47 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:29,959 Speaker 6: can actually have a solid shot at maybe starting or 48 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,360 Speaker 6: getting some playing time with kind of the uncertainty going 49 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 6: on at quarterback. 50 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 3: Malik's done a really good job. I mean Malik. 51 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 2: You know, if you think about Malik's background and how 52 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 2: far he's come from, you know, being a quarterback at Louisville. 53 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 2: I actually went and worked him out at Louisville, and 54 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 2: I think that's really one of the first times that 55 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 2: he had ever run routes as a wide receiver. 56 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 3: And so to make the. 57 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 2: Jump from you know, where we were at that point, 58 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 2: which was back pre draft, to where he is now, 59 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 2: he made a lot of improvement. Now, whether that leads 60 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 2: to playing time and all those things, again, that's that'll 61 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 2: be up to Bill. I think assistant coaches make recommendations 62 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 2: and head coaches make decisions. 63 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 3: And so that'll be up to Bill. But he's made 64 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:12,920 Speaker 3: a lot of improvement. 65 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:14,640 Speaker 2: He's a great guy to work with, and he's you know, 66 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 2: he's played in a lot of different spots. He's played 67 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 2: wide receiver, he's played in the slot, he's played quarterback, 68 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 2: he's played in the backfield. He's done a lot of 69 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,640 Speaker 2: different things, and so you know, he's really improved in 70 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 2: all areas. 71 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 4: Andrew Kellenhnfeld by Chris Ryan It. 72 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 3: Bill's good to speak with the hope you had a 73 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 3: good bye week. 74 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 7: I know this question for you guys usually triggers a 75 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 7: you know, we're focused on the giants on Sunday, and 76 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 7: I know you've played it's full. But if somebody's had 77 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 7: time and the head coaching chair at the college level, 78 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 7: NFL level, long term for you, is that something it's 79 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 7: safe to say is a goal to one day return 80 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 7: to be a head coach somewhere. 81 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 2: You know what, Andrew, I don't know, I really just 82 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,119 Speaker 2: I do. It's not cliche to say I really try 83 00:03:58,160 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 2: to do the best job I can. We have to 84 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 2: do a much better job. And the job that I 85 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 2: have right now. Uh, you know, I've been doing this 86 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 2: for thirty one years. I've I've served every single role 87 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 2: on a on a coaching staff in an organization that 88 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 2: you can pretty much serve, and so you know, I 89 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 2: think right now for me, it's it's got to be 90 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 2: I got to do a better job of what's going 91 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 2: on here right now to try to you know, have 92 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,839 Speaker 2: a more productive offense. So you know, that's what it is. 93 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 2: It's not a cliche, that's the truth. You know, That's 94 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 2: just the way it is. And so I have to 95 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,039 Speaker 2: do better at this job.

Was is that it was it 103 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:56,040 Speaker 8: just you know, you didn't like the execution there, or 104 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,600 Speaker 8: was that kind of you know, kind of a building 105 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 8: up of frustrations perhap the course of the season. 106 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:04,480 Speaker 2: No, I think that was just coaching in the moment. 107 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:06,360 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, that's kind of the way I coach. 108 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 2: You know, sometimes you know, the the way to get 109 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 2: a point across is to you know, be be very 110 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 2: demanding and very you know, intense about it. I mean 111 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 2: that's just the way I coach. That's who I am. 112 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:26,719 Speaker 2: That's how I've always coached. Sometimes that rubs certain players 113 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 2: the wrong way. Sometimes players, you know, want that. I 114 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 2: think Mac, you know, I don't want to speak for Mac, 115 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 2: but I think Mac wants to be coached and he 116 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 2: wants to be told, hey, look, you know this can 117 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 2: be better, and I look for the same thing from 118 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:40,840 Speaker 2: the players, say, coach, you got to explain that better, 119 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 2: whatever it might be. So you know, that's just the 120 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 2: way I coach. And that was a That's just that's 121 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 2: coaching in my opinion. 122 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 3: Thanks. 123 00:05:49,800 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 9: Yeah, Ever, ever, ever, ever, jam when how. 124 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 4: Hold on?

I think that 141 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 2: anything that's spoken about within the organization in football, this 142 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 2: is just me stays within the organization, within the staff. 143 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 2: I definitely appreciate the question, and I know why you 144 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 2: would ask the question. But I think that anything that's 145 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 2: spoken about between myself, the quarterbacks, Bill Belichick, Robert Kraft, whatever, 146 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 2: stays in the in the organization. 147 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 3: I have a strong belief in that. 148 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:07,120 Speaker 4: I'm kerrentwall By my creed. 149 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:14,840 Speaker 12: Hey, Bill, I had another question entirely, but I ask instead, 150 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 12: why do you feel that way when there's such anssessed, 151 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 12: insatiable interest in this team, in this franchise. And I 152 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 12: think it's there's a transparency that fans and media hope 153 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 12: for to be able to get educations of the direction 154 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 12: of the franchise. 155 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,600 Speaker 3: And there's no doubt about yes, sir, no, I do. 156 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 2: I understand that, And I think that the reason why 157 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 2: I say that is I really view football. Look, I'm 158 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 2: not saying it's it's my family. My family is the 159 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 2: most important thing in the world to me, but in 160 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 2: the football family, there is a family theme to it, 161 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:52,839 Speaker 2: right that you know, there are things that that we 162 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 2: work on that we talk about that in fairness to 163 00:08:56,720 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 2: everybody in the organization, to me, stays within the within 164 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,080 Speaker 2: that that meeting room, that staff. 165 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 3: Room, that locker room. 166 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 2: That's just the way I feel I'm not saying that 167 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 2: everybod I'm speaking for myself. I don't I don't know 168 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 2: if everybody feels that way in this organization. 169 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 3: That's not my job. I just know that I think 170 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 3: it's important to be that way. 171 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 2: I do think there's nothing more important, you know, when 172 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 2: it comes to the outside than the fans.

People wish me or said that 179 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,679 Speaker 2: I had a goodbye week. We did, you know, we 180 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:41,679 Speaker 2: were working. We had a you know, about a day 181 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 2: and a half off. But like you know, we're working 182 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 2: to try to get this thing turned around. 183 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 3: And that's what we're going to try to do. Thank you. 184 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 13: Yep, Mike Greaves, fall By, Chris Price, Hey, Bill, I 185 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:55,200 Speaker 13: have a great hat. 186 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 3: First of all. 187 00:09:57,960 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 4: That's it. 188 00:09:58,440 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's it. 189 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 13: I'm on the just going back to the MAC when 190 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 13: you said, at the end of the day, I think 191 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 13: Bill Belichick will make a decision and you'll go from there. 192 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 13: I want to ask, like, how accurate is it from 193 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 13: our standpoint to say that you right now don't know 194 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 13: work the coaches don't know because that's still to be determined. 195 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 13: Or is I guess what I'm asking or is it 196 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 13: just you're keeping it in house at this point? 197 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, No, Look, I think it's a fair question. You know. 198 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 3: The other day of practice, Mac took the first team 199 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 3: reps Bailey. 200 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 2: Bailey rotated in there. Will Greer wrote it rotated in there, 201 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 2: you know, so we'll see. I think what I'm saying 202 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 2: is that's really important? 203 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:43,839 Speaker 3: Is that? 204 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:46,320 Speaker 2: And I've said this, and I know that people may 205 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 2: scoff at this, but like, one of the reasons why 206 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 2: I really enjoy coaching here is you you have to 207 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 2: earn it on the practice field, and you've earned it 208 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:01,320 Speaker 2: on the practice field by quality reps. You know, really 209 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 2: you have to strive for perfection on the practice field. 210 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 2: You're not going to reach perfection on the practice field, 211 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 2: but you're going to strive for it and try to 212 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 2: execute at a high level and then hopefully that leads 213 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 2: to good execution in the games. Right now, you know, 214 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 2: we haven't had consistent enough execution in the games obviously, 215 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 2: and so you know, we'll see what happens down the 216 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 2: road here, but we've got to have a good meeting, 217 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 2: walk through today, practice tomorrow, practice Wednesday. We have to 218 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,199 Speaker 2: have good practices and then you know, we can all 219 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 2: determine at every position who should play the most. 220 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 3: That's really what I feel. 221 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 4: So Chris Price, followed by Phil Pierre. 222 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 1: Bill, how's the loss of Adrian Klem impacted what you 223 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 1: guys want to get done? Specifically obviously along the offensive line? 224 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 2: Anytime you lose a coach off of coaching staff, you know, 225 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 2: and and again like this is you know, health related. 226 00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 2: We we and I know Adrian's doing better. I've we've 227 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 2: all been in text uh communication with him, and he's 228 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 2: doing a lot better. But I don't want to speak 229 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 2: for him. But you know, anytime you lose a guy, 230 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 2: you know, off your staff, you know, it's hard. But 231 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 2: we have Billy Yates here, who's the assistant line coach 232 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 2: who's played in this system, does a really good job. 233 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 3: And we have Will Long who coaches the. 234 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 2: Tight ends, who has a lot of background with tight 235 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 2: ends offensive line, and then obviously we have Bill Belichick 236 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 2: who has a lot of background with with that with 237 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 2: that position, tight end and offensive line, so we we 238 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 2: have enough hands on deck. But you know, it's it's 239 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 2: not ideal, that's for sure. 240 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 4: Thank you, Phil Perry, followed by Mark Daniels. 241 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 14: Just to sort of follow up on on Mike's question 242 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:53,319 Speaker 14: there and you're you're comment about practice, is it difficult 243 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 14: to have that position, that quarterback position, compete in practice 244 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 14: for the starting job based on how that position impacts 245 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 14: all the others and maybe even game planning. I don't 246 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 14: know if it would, you know, impact a game plan 247 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 14: a certain way where you just need to know the 248 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,079 Speaker 14: quarterback and who that player is going to be a 249 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,439 Speaker 14: little bit earlier than most others. 250 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 2: I think the way that the way that we practice here, 251 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 2: there's plenty of reps to go around. I mean, so 252 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 2: everybody you know gets now, can you do it with 253 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 2: four guys? 254 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:28,680 Speaker 3: You know, three guys? 255 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 9: No? 256 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 2: I mean, but for two guys, you know, there's enough 257 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 2: reps to go around where everybody gets a gets a 258 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:38,440 Speaker 2: shot at it. So you know, I don't think that's 259 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,200 Speaker 2: a that's an issue at all. 260 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 3: These guys run the same offense. 261 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 2: They're you know, they're in the they're in the huddle 262 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 2: with the same guys. You know, it's I don't think 263 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,599 Speaker 2: that's that big of an issue with the amount of 264 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 2: reps we get in practice. 265 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 4: Mark Daniels and Tom Current. 266 00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 5: Bill in regards to Mac in Germany, want to ask 267 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 5: it it felt like, you know, later in the game 268 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 5: and all to me it almost seemed like, I don't know, 269 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 5: was it a loss of confidence? Was it the yips 270 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 5: when it came to some of his mechanics, And as 271 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 5: a coach, how do you sort of digest what has. 272 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 1: Gone wrong for him? 273 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:16,080 Speaker 5: And you know, how how fixable are some of these 274 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:17,000 Speaker 5: mental mistakes. 275 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 2: Everything's everything's fixable. I think at times Max played really well. 276 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 2: I think that's what we have to we have to 277 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 2: remember at times this year Mac has played really well. 278 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 2: And I also think that it's really important to point 279 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 2: out that, you know, there's ten other guys on the field, 280 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 2: and uh, you know, everybody's gotta play better, and then 281 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 2: there's coaches on the sideline. We all have to coach better. 282 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 2: That's that's the truth. So you know, I don't believe 283 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 2: in yips or anything like that. Mat Mack has played well. 284 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 2: Mac will play well again. We like, like Bill always says, 285 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 2: and I totally agree with that. We believe in the 286 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 2: guys that we have on this team at every position, 287 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 2: and you know, like I said, like guys have to practice, well, 288 00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 2: we have to coach better. But you know, everybody's got 289 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 2: to up their game and play better and coach better 290 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 2: to have a better offense. 291 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 3: That's the bottom line. Makes sense. Thanks Bill. 292 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 10: Yep, we've got a little long here. I think I'm 293 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 10: gonna have Tom Kern as the last question. 294 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 3: Hey, thanks Stacy. 295 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 12: So Bill Mac is obviously a talented player. He's glitching 296 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 12: now for whatever reason, and he's practicing. I'm presuming he 297 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 12: wins practice each week. He's a good player's first round pick. 298 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 12: So when he gets in the game and adversity hits 299 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 12: and there's a negative situation and he glitches and it 300 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 12: exacerbates that situation, he might win practice all week. But 301 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 12: if he's going to perform in that vein and exacerbates situations, 302 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 12: I'm wondering, do you say, well, maybe we need to 303 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 12: have someone else out there, because my guess is he's 304 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 12: gonna win practice this week too. If it came down 305 00:15:56,800 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 12: to just simple practice performance because he's ahead, no real 306 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 12: question there as just a vantage point, and I wonder 307 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 12: if you understand where I'm coming from. 308 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 3: No, it's a it's a fair question. 309 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 2: I think the big thing again is kind of what 310 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 2: I said in the previous answer, Like, you. 311 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 3: Know, the quarterback and the head coach. 312 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 2: You know, in this business, they they get a lot 313 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 2: of glory when when you win, and then they they 314 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 2: get a lot of grief when you don't win. 315 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 3: And you know that's understandable. 316 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 2: You know, those are those are the guys at the 317 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 2: at the top there, but at the end of the day, 318 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 2: there's there's a lot of other people involved. 319 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 3: Tom, I really believe this, Like so you know, whether 320 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 3: it's the. 321 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 2: Offensive line, the running backs, the wide receivers, the tight ends, like, 322 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 2: everybody can do a little bit better. And we've got 323 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 2: a lot of good guys in that room, and they're 324 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 2: working really hard. I've been on teams, not many, but 325 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 2: you know I've been on teams in the paths that 326 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 2: were in this position and you know, really really had 327 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 2: a hard time, you know, dealing with it. This team 328 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 2: does not. This team comes back to work. They believe 329 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,440 Speaker 2: in each other. There's a work ethic here. We just 330 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 2: all have to do. 331 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 3: A better job. 332 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,720 Speaker 2: I don't think it comes down to one position. You know, 333 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:08,920 Speaker 2: if you really dissected every single play, you know you're 334 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 2: trying to get eleven guys to do the right thing 335 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 2: on every single play. It's hard to do, and right 336 00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 2: now we're not able to. We don't have that consistent enough, 337 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 2: and so we've got to do that. And then once 338 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,919 Speaker 2: we do that, I think everybody will will be playing 339 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 2: better and I think we'll be better coaches. 340 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:25,920 Speaker 3: Thank you, but get
