1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,320
Speaker 1: Open up for questions when I start with Joe by

2
00:00:02,320 --> 00:00:06,560
Speaker 1: Mike Preas, Hey Mac, Merry Christmas too to you and

3
00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:10,680
Speaker 1: yours man, Thanks you too. The first question was just, um,

4
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:13,480
Speaker 1: I know, following last Saturday's game you mentioned just the

5
00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:15,840
Speaker 1: preparation and just during the week. It wasn't right that

6
00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:18,400
Speaker 1: you guys notice how can you change that? And how

7
00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:20,479
Speaker 1: has this week been for you guys as you guys

8
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:23,520
Speaker 1: look to turn the page? Yeah, I think, Um, every

9
00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:26,200
Speaker 1: week's a new week and you have so many days

10
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:29,000
Speaker 1: to prepare, and um, we're all working hard and that's

11
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 1: all you can ask to just work hard every day

12
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:33,800
Speaker 1: and get ready to play against a really good Bill's team,

13
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:39,519
Speaker 1: And um, that's all you can ask. Thanks. Question Mike

14
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:43,279
Speaker 1: Greaves fall by Chris Ryan, Hey, Mac, you prefer this

15
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 1: or the in person? Yeah? In person school, I like

16
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:51,279
Speaker 1: I like them. Is that Santa in the background? Yeah,

17
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 1: I got a little theme for you, you know, kind

18
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:55,040
Speaker 1: of lighten it up a little bit. And the Troy

19
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 1: Brown Hall of Fame back there, right, that's right, that's

20
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 1: our guy TV. Um, it's awesome. Yeah, the backgrounds right?

21
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:06,199
Speaker 1: If I bring you into the home Mac, after the game,

22
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,120
Speaker 1: you talked about flushing it down the toilet, you know,

23
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:12,560
Speaker 1: and moving on. And I'm curious in your career, is

24
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,320
Speaker 1: there a time where you sort of learn the value

25
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:17,640
Speaker 1: of that, Like, was there one moment that you can

26
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:20,960
Speaker 1: reflect back on, you know, where that approach served you

27
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 1: well and you've sort of continued on with it. Yeah.

28
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 1: I think every experience is a learning experience, and everyone's

29
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 1: different and everyone comes from different places. But whether you

30
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 1: win or you lose, you can still learn. And I

31
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:37,040
Speaker 1: mean in college, you'll lose games and you have to

32
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:39,960
Speaker 1: learn from it. And in the NFL, obviously it's hard

33
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 1: to win, so you have to learn from the errors

34
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: that you make personally, which are the most important because

35
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 1: that's how it affects the team. So I always am

36
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 1: very hard on myself because if I don't play great,

37
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 1: then it affects the people around me, and those guys

38
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: are playing really well and I can play a lot better,

39
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 1: so it just goes back to me. Thanks question Chris,

40
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 1: Ryan fall by Evan Lazar ac Me Christmas, Verry Christmas.

41
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 1: You kind of a line what Mike was talking about.

42
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 1: Every player kind of tries to achieve that level of

43
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 1: assistancy from a mental standpoint, is that something that you find,

44
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:21,680
Speaker 1: you know, easy to do because it seems like from

45
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 1: your on field persona that there is that levelness. But

46
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 1: is it difficult, particularly the rookie to stay away from riding,

47
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 1: you know, the highs or the lows and trying to

48
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:34,720
Speaker 1: compensate in anyway? Um. I just try to control what

49
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:36,799
Speaker 1: I can control, and that's trying to be the best

50
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 1: quarterback I can be. And everyone in this building is

51
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 1: trying to be the best player and person that they

52
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 1: can be. So m It's a great culture and I've

53
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,360
Speaker 1: learned from the older people that whatever you put into

54
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: it is what you're going to get out from it.

55
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 1: So just doing that every day and then when the

56
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 1: game comes, you feel prepared for the game mentally and physically. Thanks.

57
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 1: Thanks question, even Lazar, followed by Tyler Bronski, Hey, Mac,

58
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 1: happy holidays, Thanks, Happy holidays to YouTube. Thanks. I just

59
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,239
Speaker 1: wanted to ask you when you're studying opponents on film,

60
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 1: is it helpful to study offenses that are similar to

61
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 1: your offense? And I don't want to compare you to

62
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 1: Tom at all, but obviously the Bucks played the Bills

63
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 1: a few weeks ago. They played the Colts a few

64
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 1: weeks ago. Is that type of tape helpful for you

65
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,959
Speaker 1: in your study? Yeah, I think just watch as many

66
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,120
Speaker 1: games as you can and then see, you know, similarities

67
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 1: between offenses is always good. But I mean, one thing

68
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 1: that's evident is that the Bills are really good at,

69
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 1: you know, a lot of things, and they don't have

70
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 1: a lot of weaknesses. So they've done some different things

71
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 1: from the last time we played them, and we have

72
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 1: two so there's been some weeks in between, but it

73
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 1: is a quick turnaround, and um, they're a great defense,

74
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 1: they have a great team overall, and it'll be a

75
00:03:55,200 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: great battle for us on Sunday. Thanks Mac, Thanks question

76
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 1: Tyler Bronski felled by Bobs. Hey Mac, how are you good?

77
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 1: How are you doing well? Just curious where do you

78
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 1: feel your chemistry and rapport is with Trey Nixon if

79
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 1: Trey ends up being active for you guys on Sunday. Yeah,

80
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: I think all the receivers we've had all the way

81
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 1: back from OTAs I have put in a lot of

82
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 1: effort and I know Trey's one of those guys and

83
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:27,040
Speaker 1: so is everybody else. So they're ready to go, and um,

84
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 1: you know, they step up whenever their time comes. And

85
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 1: all the receivers are prepared equally because they have a

86
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:36,600
Speaker 1: standard that they hold themselves to in their receiver room,

87
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,480
Speaker 1: just like we do in the quarterback room, and then

88
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 1: ultimately all together as an offense. So I think you know,

89
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,359
Speaker 1: they're all prepared, they're all ready to go, and you know,

90
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 1: whoever plays, I know I have trust in all those guys.

91
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 1: Thanks Mac. Happy holidays, yep, thanks all right. Next question

92
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,599
Speaker 1: Bob socy Felt by Zach Cox. Thanks Days, and likewise Mac,

93
00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 1: happy holidays, Merry Christmas. Thank you. I know you've been

94
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 1: asked about equipment in the past, and I think I

95
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 1: even asked you about wearing a glove a few weeks ago,

96
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 1: and I noticed that during the game on Saturday night

97
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:12,040
Speaker 1: you had a glove on indoors, And I guess specific

98
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 1: to that, why and also along with that, how how

99
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 1: long does it take to get comfortable with any kind

100
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,839
Speaker 1: of a change, Not considering I would imagine how exact

101
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 1: you you want to be, you want to feel, you know,

102
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 1: whether it's a change it with a glove or shoes

103
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 1: or whatever it might be. Yeah, I think everyone's different,

104
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 1: But um I tried it out and liked it, and

105
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 1: you know, just continue to use what helps me. And

106
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,359
Speaker 1: everyone's different. Like I said, some people will like it,

107
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 1: some people don't. So at the end of the day,

108
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 1: like you said, some people have like superstitions and stuff

109
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,840
Speaker 1: like that, and I'm definitely one of those people. But

110
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, I just got to

111
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 1: go out there and do my part regardless of what

112
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,720
Speaker 1: I'm wearing. You're not going to divulge any of those

113
00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 1: superstitions now, Mac, thank you, appreciate it, no problem. Next

114
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 1: question Zach Cox following Nick quoit A Mac, just curious

115
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:16,080
Speaker 1: to hear what your reaction was to seeing Garrett Gilbert

116
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 1: get signed off your guys practice squad and then start

117
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 1: a game for Washington three days later. It's obviously a

118
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 1: pretty unusual scenario there. Yeah, I think, um, you know,

119
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 1: Garret is a great help to me in the quarterback room,

120
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,599
Speaker 1: and he's a great teammate, and you know, he played

121
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 1: really well and he got a chance to go out

122
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 1: there and spin it around, so we're all very happy

123
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: for him. And um, yeah, I mean he's very nice

124
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,799
Speaker 1: to me and everybody in our quarterback room and provided

125
00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 1: a lot of great information. Thanks question Nick quite followed

126
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 1: by d quarter Randall. Thanks Stacy Merry, Christmas Mack, thanks

127
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 1: for doing this. Thanks. I just wanted to ask about,

128
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,200
Speaker 1: you know, the the evolving situation of the league with

129
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 1: with COVID nineteen, and you talk about all the time

130
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,719
Speaker 1: controlling what you can control. How much is it a

131
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:08,480
Speaker 1: focus for you and the offense this week on just

132
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 1: you know, focusing on the game plan no matter who

133
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 1: may be on the field or what curveballs come your

134
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 1: way throughout the week. Yeah. I think it just goes

135
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 1: back to, you know, everyone's been here, we've been together.

136
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 1: We have a lot of bankd reps, you know as

137
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,559
Speaker 1: an offense, regardless of who's playing what position or who's

138
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:29,680
Speaker 1: in there. So we have that standard and I'm still

139
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 1: trying to play to that standard just as everyone else is.

140
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 1: So it's just a new week and a new chance

141
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 1: to prepare together and kind of go out there and

142
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 1: put a finished product on the field. On Sunday. Ask

143
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 1: two questions to Cut Randall and Taylor Backley. Hey, Mac,

144
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 1: We've heard some of you guys talk about flushing bad

145
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 1: game and moving on generally though with practice, not just

146
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: last week. Is it harder to flush a bad day

147
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 1: of practice on? Like what is it. Why is it

148
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 1: that bad practice days can compound on each other if

149
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 1: that even is an accurate assessment. Yeah, I think every

150
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 1: day is a new day and is an a learning experience.

151
00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 1: So whether it's Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, or Saturday, you're just

152
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 1: trying to fix the things that you can fix and

153
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,360
Speaker 1: then improve on the things that you know. You know

154
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 1: what you need to do, like your fundamentals. So for

155
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 1: me and everyone else, it's just improve your fundamentals and

156
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 1: then by the time Sunday comes, you're just playing the

157
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:31,559
Speaker 1: game that you know how to play and have played

158
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 1: for a really long time. Yeah. Last question, Taylor backer Mac,

159
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 1: how do you make sure that you guys can bounce

160
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 1: back from this last loss instead of letting it take

161
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 1: you in the opposite direction. Yeah, I think you just

162
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,360
Speaker 1: have to keep moving forward and understand what we're about

163
00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 1: to face and a really good football team, and you know,

164
00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 1: it comes down to controlling what you can control, and

165
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,600
Speaker 1: that's your attitude and your effort, and we're trying to

166
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,680
Speaker 1: do that every day and then eventually we'll stack days

167
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,440
Speaker 1: together and we'll get a chance to play, like I said,

168
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,920
Speaker 1: against a really good team and who have a lot

169
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 1: of talented players, but they're also really well coached. Thank you.

170
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,720
Speaker 1: Merry Christmas. Awesome. Thanks you guys, Merry Christmas, Happy holidays,

171
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 1: see ya ma. Thank you everyone,
