Kevin O’Connell’s Locker Room Speech After the Week 6 Win Over the Miami Dolphins

@dee h. No. The Eagles are a far superior team (and I HATE the Eagles and their fans)
Basically the teams they are beating, often just barely are the league dregs right now.

@Samm Sneed Especially if you are a realist. that 1 loss was to what can only be described as the only quality team they faced and 3 of their wins could have just as easily went the other way for various reasons with the primary difference between last year and this being breaks. They are getting breaks this year that they didnt get last.
If you look at this team closely with a critical eye. There is still a lot to be concerned about and to improve upon. Bradbury for example it still a major weak link on the O line in passblocking unless he has help. Rewatch the highlights and only watch Bradbury and you will see what I mean. Pay attention also to the plays where he seemingly passblocked 1 V 1 well and you will see on a few of those the defender wasnt really putting much effort into rushing but was rather either taking Bradbury up essentially acting like a blocker on defense allowing another rush in on a stunt or blitz or merely trying to get in the passing lane. Interior of this line is still a liability. Im kinda surprised that more teams havent been trying to exploit it yet. They eventually will.

@Drediock A realist doesn’t deal with the past or future.
Smile and have a good night.

@Smitty Werben Jaggerman-Jensen Maybe next year 😉

Yea koc is still figuring out what works and what doesn’t work

@dee h. I agree!!! SKOL!!! Also appreciate the positive comment!

@dee h. Fr what is this fool talking about? The only real change was the addition of Za’Darius.

special 10 three and outs

Dolphins defense was doing a ho9d job they change the plays that where called and it helped

I agree but looks like it might be Daboll given their team talent

@Logan Jones Still a lot of games left so we’ll see.

@Octavian Hernandez Agreed and they have really only played 1 quality team in the Eagles. and we know how that went. Packers should have been one but they are playing about as poorly right now on a consistent basis as I have seen them play in a long time
This team as it stands right this moment isnt beating the likes of the Bills or Cheifs. Who are on a completely different level right now.

@Drediock we’ll get there

I love how he credits the players that deserve it!

i had 4-2, but no way you picked vikes over the eagles lmao

Daboll is better considering the talent he has

@David Oldham We definitely miss him 😂 he’s an amazing player!

Peterson is also a great FA signing!

Z has been awesome, just think if Dannielle gets going too☠️ So far I think Z has been the better player, which just shows how good of a duo they can be

@drplot1 Peterson has been solid for us I think

@Jason Aune Just waiting for Harrison to perform like he used to under Zimmer. I know he can. The double Smiths will shake the league if they both play at full potential.

Its great they are 5-1 But there are still a ton of concerns that they have been able to hide because of luck, blunderous decisions of opposing coaches, and their schedule They played 1 quality team thusfar. The Eagles. This was a good win however we cant say they would have done as well had Tua been playing QB. And even without him the Phins did as much to shoot themselves in the foot as the Vikings did to beat them.
Bradburry is still getting trucked when pass blocking 1 on 1completely wiffed altogether on play that allowed Cousins to be sacked with 1:35 left in the 2nd QTR and then completely wiffed again with 1:06 left. Fortunately that was a quick pass to JJ. The line as a whole I thought gave up a lot of pressure. Bridgewater actually outplayed Cousins and only 1 pick he threw was his fault in essentially garbage time and the other being rather poorly handled by the receiver. Considering he didnt take first team reps all week. Teddy looked pretty good.
It was good to see the Defense finally dial up some pressure. But there were still lapses that are concerning when you take into account the poor plays of the receivers and the QBs they went against. Still its a step in the right direction

Reminds me more of the first two seasons under Zimmer and about 90% of just about every other new head coach Ive ever seen. Toxicity comes with losing, regardless of coach

@Drediock Putting words in my mouth…

But I’ve been going to Camp for quite a while… The Team was completely different, so different personalities, but there was definitely something different about THIS team THIS year… No question about it. Not the same as the first 2 years with Zim though, not quite, regardless of the fact it was a different team.

@Drediock And sorry, but KOC doesn’t exactly strike me as the type of guy who would act even 10% as toxic as Zim his last half here (and I was a BIG fan of Zimmer and still am for what he did to get us out of the LF-era), even if he was losing.

Maybe I’m wrong… We’ll find out at some point. If you’re talking about players becoming toxic, I think somebody like KOC could handle that stuff a BIIIIIIIIIT better than a guy like Zimmer could… Have you ever been to Camp/met the guy? Seriously…
