FOXBORO, MA -- Patriots Quarterback Mac Jones spoke to the media after the Patriots 50-10 win over the Jaguars. TRANSCRIPT FROM MAC BELOW: Sharing the following FastScripts transcript provided by ASAP Sports: Q: Mac, how needed was this offensive explosion by you guys today? To really distribute the ball to everybody, passing game, running game, it had to feel good. MJ: Yeah, I think we had a really good plan and Josh [McDaniels] outlined that for us. The offensive line obviously did a great job executing and keeping the pocket clean and all that, and the receivers making their catches, and the running backs running. That's kind of how offensive football should work, and obviously we'll watch the tape and see what we can get better at, but we finally kind of got some momentum early and just played the game on our terms and all that. That's what we wanted to do. Q: On some of the hand-offs particularly at the goal line, I noticed that you had a particular habit on the four touchdown runs today you were putting your hands up signaling touchdown by the time the guys were getting to the line of scrimmage. How confident are you in your running backs right now and what sort of brings that about? MJ: Yeah, I think every time we get close like that, it's always good to celebrate when your teammate is going to score or you think they’re going to score. I like how hard they run and how big the holes are for them to run through with the offensive line. It's just fun to get that view from behind and celebrate with the team and score points and score touchdowns in the red area, which is something that we need to get better at, and we're trying to do that. Q: We saw you work with Kristian Wilkerson a lot during training camp. How much did that foundation help now that he's a part of the offense? MJ: Yeah, I think that's just a great example of someone being ready for their opportunity and I think all of our receivers, we have great chemistry because we put in all the extra work, not only in training camp or whenever but throughout the week. We get the game plan and those guys will come over and run extra routes and all that while someone else is doing special teams or whatever it may be. We're trying to get the extra work, get the timing and all those guys did a great job today, and we'll just try and continue to build off that. Q: How exciting is it to have a playoff spot and does this reinforce the notion of how happy you are to be drafted by the Patriots? MJ: Yeah, I think any sport you play you want to get a chance to play for a championship and for a playoff spot. We have a big game next week, and that's what we're going to focus on, and finishing strong and all that. We'll focus on that and be where our feet are, and then when the next thing comes we'll have a new plan and attack it. Q: In the third quarter when you were scrambling for the first down, at the end of the play we saw that you put two hands around the ball, just like holding a baby. Is that something you particularly practiced this week, something you want to share? MJ: We just talk about ball security and the past couple weeks my ball security hasn't been very good, so I'm trying to work on it, just like everyone else is. The coaches put a big emphasis on that, and the goal was to protect the ball, whether you're throwing it or running it. That's all you've got to do. Q: If you had to pinpoint two or three things knowing obviously there are probably thousands, what were a couple things that made the difference in your execution here overall today from your past couple games? MJ: I think just doing our job better. We talked about how it's us, it doesn't have to do a lot with the other team. We just have to focus on what we're supposed to do and how we can do better at it, and we didn't do that in recent weeks. But we've got to do that more consistently, and I think that was a good step today, but the job’s not done. ------------------ #patriotspresspass #clns #patriots -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- CLNS is powered by FanDuel.
