CB Bobby McCain

(Your thoughts on being out of concussion protocol?) – “(I’m) good to go. It’s football, so things happen. (I’m) good to go and I’ll be ready this week.”

(How big of a relief is it that you’re not going to have to miss a game?) – “Big. The bye week was big for us. (It give you) a little extra time to get your body right. Like I said, I don’t want to miss time. I don’t want to miss a game. I’m happy to be back.”

(How do you look at the challenge of facing Colts QB Andrew Luck and the Colts who are very hot right now?) – “They’re a good team. I know he hasn’t been sacked in a little while, so you try and get some smoke in his face. He’s a good player. He’s a good quarterback. He was out for a little while with his injury but now you can see he’s back on track with what he’s doing. It’s a good challenge, a good opportunity for us to go up there and play well and get a W.”

(How big was the bye week for you personally to overcome your symptoms?) – “It was good. It was good for us. It gives you a little extra time, even without the protocol, just throughout the little nicks and knacks of your body. It’s good that we had it late. Now, we can get guys fresh and get guys back on track and go try to win this stretch.”

(How do you plan to maintain that one-game mentality but knowing that there’s six left and you guys need to win more of those?) – “It’s always one game at a time. Always. We know what’s ahead of us but at the end of the day, you can only control what you can control, and that’s one game at a time. Each and every day we’re going in, putting the preparation in and we’re going to go out and try to have a great performance. Regardless of what happens on the field, the one thing we want to leave with is a W.”

(Is there any more pressure trying to fix some of the things you’ve had in the first part of the season knowing that the season is short?) – “No. We know what we’ve done well. We know what we haven’t done very well. Throughout the bye week, (we were) just taking a look at that and understanding how teams will attack you, how coordinators see the defense, how schemes are ran. Taking a look at that is big. Like I said, being able to go through on a bye week and see what teams are doing that are different than the week before, the week after. It’s a great opportunity and we’re going to correct the things that we haven’t been doing right and keep doing well the things we’ve been doing well.”

(Are you going to watch a lot of football tomorrow?) – “Yeah, for sure. A lot of football. Good and full, too.”

(Do you have a favorite Thanksgiving meal that you remember as a kid?) – “My big momma always makes a good Thanksgiving meal – turkey, dressing, ham. We have it all. I’m from Alabama, so we really throw that macaroni. We really throw down.”

(How grateful are you guys, because there are some teams that do practice on Thanksgiving?) – “That’s big. We appreciate it. They know how important it is and we know how important it is for this team, just being with their families. We have a lot of guys that are married, have kids. Not me personally, but a lot of guys that are married and have kids want to be with their family on Thanksgiving. That’s a good deal for us.”
