1 00:00:01,400 --> 00:00:03,680 Speaker 1: Hey, Mac, just just to start, how would you describe 2 00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:05,880 Speaker 1: just the emotions throughout this and you know ultimately what 3 00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:08,680 Speaker 1: went wrong for your group? Yeah, I think we just 4 00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:11,840 Speaker 1: need to execute better and it really just wasn't our day. 5 00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:15,760 Speaker 1: But there's no excuses and there's really nothing to talk about. 6 00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:18,439 Speaker 1: I didn't play great. I can play better and I 7 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:20,599 Speaker 1: can lead a lot better and it starts with me. 8 00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:23,239 Speaker 1: So we'll just have to look in the mirror and 9 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:25,560 Speaker 1: address what we can and just keep working to get 10 00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:29,720 Speaker 1: better every day. Love and reading the back, How do 11 00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:34,280 Speaker 1: you guys get off to faster starts because you're falling behind. Yeah, 12 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:38,760 Speaker 1: I think just executing better. Just whatever the play call is, 13 00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:41,520 Speaker 1: go out there and do your job. And I didn't 14 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:43,360 Speaker 1: do that early on in the game. I didn't do 15 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,960 Speaker 1: it throughout the game. So you can't have successful plays 16 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:50,239 Speaker 1: when your quarterback's not doing the right thing. So I 17 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,320 Speaker 1: gotta play better and get the ball to the people 18 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:57,200 Speaker 1: that need to get the ball, and there's no excuses. Mac. 19 00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 1: One of the notable plays in the game came in 20 00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 1: the second quarter on their sideline when the Bills defender 21 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 1: made some contact with you. Can you take us back 22 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 1: to that play and how it unfolded from your view, Yeah, 23 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:12,400 Speaker 1: I mean it's football. You're gonna get hit, and it's 24 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,480 Speaker 1: not our job to figure out whether what it was 25 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: a flag or wasn't. Um, it's the rough job. That's 26 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:20,959 Speaker 1: why they're there. And it's just one of those plays. 27 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: And you know, at the end of the day, if 28 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 1: you get positive yards and it's a good play, and 29 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 1: that's really all there is to it. So you feel 30 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 1: like it was necessary. Um, I don't really know. I 31 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 1: just ran and got out of bounds and I don't 32 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 1: know what happened from there. Just my knee breaks kind 33 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,040 Speaker 1: of did a little thing there, so I was just 34 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 1: trying to get it off. But there was nothing. I mean, 35 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 1: there's nothing more to it, Matt. Your first scoring drive 36 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 1: of the game, you guys went forth twice on fourth down. 37 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 1: Damian scored that touchdown. It just seemed you kind of 38 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 1: knew then what type of day this was going to be, 39 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 1: that it was going to be almost like a boxing match, 40 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 1: going forward in fourth down and doing anything you had 41 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 1: to do to score, right. Yeah, I think every every 42 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 1: divisional game in the NFL, you know, just from listening 43 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 1: to the older guys and being a part of some 44 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 1: just everyone's going to be like that. And like I said, 45 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 1: we didn't We didn't execute. I didn't execute. And you know, 46 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:21,519 Speaker 1: some of those plays shouldn't even have been there. We 47 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 1: should have skipped some fourth downs and third downs and 48 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:26,920 Speaker 1: first and second down. We could have bigger plays from me. 49 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,639 Speaker 1: So I think like you're talking about. I mean, those 50 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 1: are the plays you want to make, and we did 51 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: a good job, you know, making some of them, but 52 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 1: we really don't even want to be in that spot. 53 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 1: And you know, every time it puts Josh in a 54 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 1: hard position, it puts a lot of the other players 55 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 1: in a hard position too. Hey, mac Um, your accuracy 56 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: was unusually off today and this isn't too excuse that. 57 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,640 Speaker 1: But now, have you being in New England for a 58 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: full month in the winter, have you found throwing the 59 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: cold to be a skill you're developing playing here? Yeah, 60 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 1: I think it just goes back to execution and throwing 61 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 1: it to the right guy, whether regardless of the weather. 62 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 1: And I'm still learning obviously, And um, I don't think 63 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,519 Speaker 1: there's any excuses. The guys open and you're supposed to 64 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:13,520 Speaker 1: throw it to him and he's supposed to catch the ball, 65 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 1: and we're supposed to move the sticks and if I 66 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:17,679 Speaker 1: can't hit him in the hands, then he's not gonna 67 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 1: be able to catch the ball. So, um, the accuracy 68 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:26,359 Speaker 1: needs to improve. Mac, You've said that you take losses hard, 69 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 1: that how do you keep your head right to move 70 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:34,079 Speaker 1: forward when when things are starting to inspire a little bit? Um, Yeah, 71 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: I think every week's the new week, and um, all 72 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: you can do is watch the film and get better 73 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 1: from it and so we can do better next week. 74 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: The Bill's coverage wise, what what stood out in terms 75 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: of the coverages they played today? And then along those 76 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: lines too, Kendrick was activated yesterday to not have the 77 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 1: week of practice with him, but then to have him 78 00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 1: come out and have to be part of this game today. 79 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: Did that have any impact? Yeah? I think it was 80 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: obvious that the Bills were the better team, Um, you 81 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 1: know when we went against them. So we just we 82 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 1: have to go back and do what we can do 83 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 1: really well and fix a week and fix and control 84 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 1: a week and control and um, yeah, getting KB back 85 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,600 Speaker 1: was great, and um, you know he came out here 86 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: with the right attitude, and um, all the receivers fought hard, 87 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 1: but you know, I gotta get him the ball and 88 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,599 Speaker 1: let them run with it and make their plays. You know, 89 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 1: it's hard to make any plays when you can't when 90 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 1: the ball is not in the frame to catch. So um, 91 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 1: that's on me, and we'll just try and get everyone 92 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:43,280 Speaker 1: back next week and continue to work. You talked out 93 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,360 Speaker 1: to the Indianapolis game about how you thought practice went 94 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: that week leading up to the game. How did you 95 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,839 Speaker 1: think it went this week? UM, yeah, I'm not gonna 96 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 1: really talk about the past. I think what we do 97 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 1: on Sundays is what matters. And you know, I didn't 98 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,040 Speaker 1: perform very well today and all we have is the 99 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 1: opportunity to get another week of practice to try and 100 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: play well on Sunday again. So that's all there is 101 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 1: to it. Thanks
