Bill O Brien's post-game presser keeps it REAL after a loss, compared to Gus Badly's "positive" [BAD ...

After the 2 most recent Jags close losses, Gus was about the same as any other of his 18 career losses, "we missed some opportunties out there" we have to work on some things" , "we have to get better" and so on.

 

After the Texans loss, O'Brien showed his disappointment and let everyone (players, fans and media) know that the way they played out there was unacceptable and wouldn't be tolerated. We also don't know what he said behind closed doors either.

 

Now I fully realize that there are different ways to coach a team and a HC has to find the right buttons to push to get the most out of his team, but I liked what I saw from O'Brien after the game. I just did. He told it like it was and I like that. It could have been built up frustration and disappointment after a 3rd straight 1 score loss after starting the season 3-1, but whatever it was, I like it.

 

Gus has had an 8 game losing streak and a 6 game losing streak and I haven't seen that level of disappointment from him 1 time.

 

I just happen to think that kind of HC will have more overall success then a HC who is rah rah rah all the time.

 
 

 

Good post. I especially agree with the above.
