Talking like winners


Mr. Scot

Listen to the post game interviews the players and coaches are giving these days, and tell me you don't hear a different tone from prior years, or even earlier this year.

 

It's the kind of tone you hear from players who expect to win.

 

I'm trying to remember the last time I heard our guys sounding this way.

 

Nice to see the change.

Let's put it this way...the last time this team had confidence like this we read about it in the paper. We couldn't listen to HD streams of post game pressers on the internet 10 years ago.

This team was rightfully confident in 05 and 08 too.

Probably the most confidence I've seen from the fans and the team was after the undressing of Tampa after the 08 Monday night game and after we blanked the Giants in NY in the playoffs in '05.

Loved Smitty's interview after the game. He was talking about how poorly they executed in the first half and how they were going to have to buckle down and work harder.

 

In the twilight of his career, Smith knows how special this run is and how it could end up if they keep working at it.

Hearing Mitchell talk about how much he "loves this team" was fantastic.

That's the kind of thing you absolutely want to hear. It's much better than guys just drawing a paycheck.

 

Mitchell's post game still has me pumped.  The guy loves playing here, loves that he's gotten his chance to shine, and loves this team, I truly expect we will be able to extend him with a contract that's fair for both sides, and hopefully cut Godfrey and give him some of that money.

 

This team is going to be a magnet for guys, our core is so talented and young, Gman will be able to pick and choose the pieces he wants to add.  No longer will you have to beg players to come here, they will want to come here.  As much as a disaster as it ended up being, I forsee the next few years being like the Eagles offseason a couple years ago, FA will flock to this team.

    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.  
    • Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
