S Bobby McCain

(Do you have a favorite Monday Night Football memory either as a player or a kid growing up?) – “My first Monday Night Football game was against the Giants. I was in Miami. It was pretty fun, a lot of fun actually. The lights were on, they had the fire going. It was actually a lot of fun. We ended up losing. That was actually my first start of my career. It was a pretty big moment for me.”

(Have you talked to Head coach Brian Flores about any kind of discipline with the fan incident in Buffalo?) – “Yeah, we have. We talked internally, and we’re handling it internally.”

(I know you like to chirp a little bit. Is it any extra fun when you have a guy like S Minkah Fitzpatrick on the other side that you can chirp with?) – “Oh yeah, man. It’s definitely going to be fun, just seeing Minkah again, getting to see him and see him play, I’m excited to see him play. As bad as it sounds because he’s on the other team, I want to kick his ass; but I’m excited to see him play. Even though he’s on the other team, he’s still my brother.”

(Do you still talk to S Minkah Fitzpatrick?) – “Yeah. Oh yeah, for sure, for sure. I just got off the phone with him two days ago maybe.”

(With some of the struggles on offense – we’re familiar with the season. But last game, TE Mike Gesicki with some catches, some big plays. Does that spark you guys on the sideline knowing that they are taking those strides?) – “It’s big. We have playmakers on both sides of the ball. Just seeing those guys make tough catches like Gesicki, he made a couple of tough catches in the third and fourth quarter that were big for us. We’ve just got to capitalize on it. We have to understand that when you have plays like that, when you have playmakers making plays, those are the times and drives that you’ve got to capitalize and put them away.”

(There is a perception of you guys as a team throughout the year. Do you kind of look at this Monday night game as a chance to show the world?) – “Definitely, definitely. It’s always a good opportunity. That’s the good thing about the National Football League, there is always next Sunday. You’ve got to put whatever is behind you and put it in the past, and just go out there a perform. It’s a big stage. If we can go out and get a win on a big stage on a Monday Night Football game, that will definitely change the perception around here.”

(You guys have struggled in the second half. You and I were talking in the Dolphins locker room last week about how it’s just mental. Did you talk about it in practice this week? How do you guys try to make sure that lackluster…?) – “Just focusing on the details, focusing on the little things and understanding that everybody has a role and everybody has a job to do. Within that job, within that role, you have responsibilities. Just getting down on really the minute things, the things that are going to matter at the end of the game like that extra yard or I could’ve got that first down and kept the drive going or I could’ve gotten a stop and stopped a drive from going. Just those little things, just not having those ‘uh-ohs, my bad.’ If you can come out of the game and not have any ‘my bads’ or ‘uh-ohs,’ then you should be all right.”
