Transcript
00:00So, you know, we have a branded Misery Monday thing that's branded, but it doesn't feel
00:05like a Misery Monday.
00:06How did it feel like to you and how did the locker room feel?
00:09Well, yes, and it's funny that you say that because I used to do on my podcast, like a
00:14therapy Tuesday, right?
00:15Like a live stream show, I'm like, I don't call that anymore, because I think there's
00:20because of Jaden Daniels.
00:21I think that's where a lot of it comes back to right that you don't like, yeah, it was
00:25a loss.
00:26And for a fan, it's a, you know, you want to win that game.
00:30But if you see number five playing the way he is, you know, you have a chance pretty
00:33much in every game now.
00:35I wouldn't say that was the feeling in the locker room, you know, just because I don't
00:39think you can take that approach.
00:41I kind of go back to that Philadelphia loss last year, where remember, they had that really
00:47good game in Philly, they end up losing was like, oh, wow, you know, yeah, it's a loss,
00:51but it's a good loss.
00:52You know, it was a, I wouldn't say moral victory, but it was like, wow, you're right there,
00:56and then they lay an egg against Chicago four days later.
01:00So you know, you have to be careful in the locker room how you process that.
01:04But I think, you know, I think that what they realized and what I what I what you hear from
01:10the locker room too, is you got to clean up mistakes, like in Dan Quinn would say like
01:14it felt lopsided, but we were there, right.
01:18So I think that's the approach.
01:19But from my perspective, you know, you kind of kind of almost say when almost how you
01:27could envision it, right?
01:29Like there were issues on defense, but Jane Daniels made plays and made some really good
01:34plays that make you realize they're going to be in it for the long haul this year.
01:38John, can you describe how different the vibe is when when Josh Harris and Adam Peters walk
01:43off the field with the team and basically escort them into the locker room?
01:47I don't ever recall seeing that sort of vibe with Dan Snyder, like being all there was
01:53never a vibe with Dan, right?
01:55Like it's like markedly different.
01:57Oh, everything is different.
01:59I mean, you know, you talk to the security guards at the front entrance and it's at the
02:05at the practice facility and it's dramatically different.
02:08You know, I think like I think there's certainly a feeling like these guys are invested in
02:13them in more ways.
02:15Right.
02:15And so, you know, it's I can't I don't think I could adequately describe the difference
02:22other than to say it's very much night and day.
02:26I mean, you know, I don't know.
02:31Yeah, I don't think I can even I think we all know the difference.
02:34Right. Right.
02:34You know, one one one treats people like humans.
02:38And so one treats people like humans.
