1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,960
Speaker 1: Mac. How you doing it? Slewin Christian, I'm good. How

2
00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:05,440
Speaker 1: are you guys? Good? We're doing good. Listen, now, I

3
00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:08,600
Speaker 1: know a tough game yesterday down in Miami. Unfortunately Patriot fans,

4
00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:10,920
Speaker 1: we've seen it before, right, I know. It's crazy the

5
00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:13,720
Speaker 1: two and nine record in December and January. This is

6
00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:16,560
Speaker 1: your first time playing down there at that time of year.

7
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:19,279
Speaker 1: So help us out. Is there is a tough place

8
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:20,959
Speaker 1: to play this time of year. Is it's something to

9
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:23,360
Speaker 1: do with just a couple of months or the weather?

10
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 1: What is it? Um? Yeah, I mean I think we

11
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:30,280
Speaker 1: just went down then we had to put a better

12
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,040
Speaker 1: performance than we did, and you all we can do

13
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:35,519
Speaker 1: at disappoint is just learn from it and trying to

14
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:38,400
Speaker 1: just move on. And we understand that we're in a

15
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:41,199
Speaker 1: one week season now and that's the most important thing

16
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:44,879
Speaker 1: is the upcoming game. But obviously you're disappointed, and um,

17
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:47,720
Speaker 1: we wish we'd put it better, you know, effort and

18
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 1: outcome on the field yesterday. But it is what it is. Yeah,

19
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:52,440
Speaker 1: you know, but like you said, like you're in the

20
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 1: playoffs and uh and for a rookie that's rare. So

21
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:58,520
Speaker 1: I just how how how you know? How important is

22
00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 1: this opportunity for you being a rookie taking your team

23
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 1: up there, guiding your team up there to play Buffalo

24
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:08,320
Speaker 1: for a third time. Yeah. I think that's why football

25
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 1: is such a great team sport. It takes everybody. And

26
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,320
Speaker 1: you know, obviously, like you said, we get to play

27
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 1: against the Bills for a third time and at their place,

28
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 1: which is a hard place to play, and they have

29
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 1: a great team, and you know, we get to play

30
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 1: them again, so we understand what's at stake and we're

31
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 1: just excited for the opportunity. Now, Mac, you've played them

32
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,399
Speaker 1: a couple of times here recently. Does that help you

33
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 1: kind of prepare, kind of know what they do, especially

34
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:39,399
Speaker 1: here in the short week. Yeah, I think. You know,

35
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 1: we're very familiar with their players and they're very familiar

36
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 1: with us. So we just have to go out there

37
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 1: and trust the coaches and do our game plan and

38
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 1: just executed a little better than we have in the

39
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 1: past games. And that's why it comes down to just execution.

40
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 1: And obviously, like I said, the teams know each other

41
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 1: really well, and we have the most respect for the Bills.

42
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 1: So you know, in the post game, Um, I know,

43
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 1: fresh off the loss, you said you are super embarrassed

44
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 1: by the way you played. Why why did you Why

45
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:11,520
Speaker 1: did you say that? Um? Yeah, I think I just

46
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 1: didn't have my best day. And UM it starts with

47
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,640
Speaker 1: me just being a quarterback, just trying to get everything

48
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 1: going in the right direction. And um, you know, moving forward,

49
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 1: that's something that I have to do better, get off

50
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 1: to a faster start, um, and put our team in

51
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 1: a position to win and play from ahead early. So

52
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,519
Speaker 1: um moving on the next week. Just that's one of

53
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 1: the things that we want to work on, is just

54
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,639
Speaker 1: the execution part for the whole sixty minutes, not just

55
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 1: maybe for a half or for a quarter. Do you

56
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 1: think it's sometimes like you know, you're too hard on yourself.

57
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 1: Um yeah, I mean I want everything to be perfect

58
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 1: and all that, but it's a team sport and we're

59
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 1: all in this together. And UM, like I said, it

60
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,920
Speaker 1: all starts with me and just trying to do the

61
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 1: best job I can to get everybody the ball and

62
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 1: operate the offense. And you know I can. I've played

63
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,519
Speaker 1: a lot of games so far this year, and I

64
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 1: just try to get better every week and that's all

65
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,080
Speaker 1: you can ask for. And um, you know, it just

66
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 1: comes down to execution and that's what football. That's the

67
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 1: game of football. It's X and those and doing the

68
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 1: right thing on every play. It's not necessarily about other things.

69
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,920
Speaker 1: We're talking to Mac Jones here on the Harbor One Hotline,

70
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,639
Speaker 1: and Mac, you talk about execution just you know, you

71
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 1: look at the last four games one and three and

72
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 1: those three losses kind of they all have something in common,

73
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 1: right that's falling behind thinks seventeen nothing, seventeen seven, twenty nothing.

74
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 1: Whatever it might be in those three games. Is it

75
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 1: is that execution or what can you put your finger on?

76
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 1: Maybe these slow starts. Yeah, I think it's something that

77
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 1: we'll definitely talk about um day to day and all that.

78
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:51,560
Speaker 1: But they just goes back to you know, whatever play

79
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 1: is called, we just have to do it a little

80
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 1: bit better than what we have and you have to

81
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: understand that it's a sixty minute game and we don't

82
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 1: have to win or lose the game really all we

83
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 1: can play the whole sixty minutes and see where we're

84
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 1: at and just the turnovers with me obviously just trying

85
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 1: not to do that and when the turnover battle and

86
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 1: see how it goes from there. You know, I know

87
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 1: you talk about the turnover. You mentioned that like that

88
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:18,279
Speaker 1: was just a cover too, But did they did Howard

89
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 1: kind of? I don't feel like he kind of bade

90
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 1: it the route a little bit? Did you were you?

91
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 1: Was that kind of like you being affected by one

92
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,479
Speaker 1: of your rules as being just you know, see it

93
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 1: and throw it. You know, you talk about that a

94
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 1: lot with us. I was wondering if that kind of

95
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 1: got you in a jam at all. Um, yeah, I

96
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 1: mean I watched them all that, but it was just

97
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 1: a good play and um yeah, I wish I had

98
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,680
Speaker 1: it back, but um, yeah, he made a good play

99
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,040
Speaker 1: and I'll learn from it and see what I can

100
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:48,360
Speaker 1: do better when when that play comes up again. And um,

101
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 1: that's what you want to do with the interception and

102
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,839
Speaker 1: just try and learn from them and then maybe down

103
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 1: the line when you have the same type of play,

104
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 1: you can fix what you did bad on the last time.

105
00:04:58,200 --> 00:04:59,480
Speaker 1: So make I know you got a big week, and

106
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 1: I know you got a prepare for the Buffalo Bills

107
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 1: on Saturday, but I don't know, say tonight at like

108
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:05,280
Speaker 1: eight o'clock, you're going to carve out a few hours

109
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,480
Speaker 1: to maybe not watch this National Championship and maybe have

110
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:10,400
Speaker 1: a few bets running in that locker room for this

111
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,920
Speaker 1: game to night. Yeah, I think we have a lot

112
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 1: of work to do here, but hopefully I'll get maybe

113
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 1: a little bit of time to watch him and I

114
00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,720
Speaker 1: wish him good luck and hopefully we can bring back

115
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:25,799
Speaker 1: another national championship. But like I said, I'll be pretty busy,

116
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 1: so I know they'll do really well. All right, Mac,

117
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,240
Speaker 1: sign for the quarterback question of the week. I want

118
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 1: to lighten the mood a little bit, Matt, because one

119
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 1: of my producers showed me and I guess an Instagram

120
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 1: post of your girlfriend Sophie making dinner. It looked like

121
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 1: it was either cookies or something, but it was on

122
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 1: fire and she was like she was seeing it was

123
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: on TMZ actually Mac, and she was she was like

124
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 1: yelling for you for help because the whole thing turned

125
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,599
Speaker 1: on fire. Like, can you explain what happened with the

126
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 1: food that day? Yeah? I think it was just she

127
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:03,039
Speaker 1: just overtooked it a little bit. Is she the regular

128
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,720
Speaker 1: cook or are you the cook? Is she the cook? Well?

129
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 1: How's that working? Yeah? She's learning just like I am.

130
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 1: So we're trying to make more meals at home and

131
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,039
Speaker 1: be more healthy. Though, so what was that What was

132
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 1: that meal that happened to kind of turn into some flames. Anyways,

133
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:23,920
Speaker 1: he was chicken, but we broiled it and then it's

134
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:27,360
Speaker 1: caught on fire. I was gonna say it's happened to

135
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 1: all of us, as I almost put my whole house

136
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:34,840
Speaker 1: on fire, like last week. So all right, all right, Maca, well,
