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


I told you all that there would be plenty of comic relief until his eventual banning. Bradley is so deep in jersey shores head he cannot stop bringing him up. It must suck to have your life so influenced by one man that you cannot control yourself. That is what Bradley has done to jersey shore. It's quite comical.

Quote:okay, I thought it was loss #1. we're really picking at straws here tho.... 

 

But at 3-3? compared to having that tact in a season that you are 4-12 or 1-6?? 

 

 

You didn't see O Brien act like passive like that once his Texans record dipped below .500. 
 

Being accurate = "picking at straws"

What you continue to NOT see makes all the difference in the analysis.

So this it today's, dumb thread of the day?  Ok, i'm on board but forgive me, i'm not going to read all the posts to catch up.  Stupid Pacific Time.  I've read enough to know what's going on, it's very typical.

 

So we need an angry coach to win.  Got it.

Quote:Lol, people see this differently.  I get your point, but I think this was calculated.  He was celebrating with his team so that they knew what winning felt like. It was a weight off all of their shoulders....there is nothing wrong celebrating that.

 

I'm not saying Bradley and his philosophy will work in the long run, but you are nit picking.  You are talking about coaching deficiencies (as you see it) off the field instead of on the field.

 

You are reaching.
 

My thing is the whole argument is predicated on post game press conferences.

 

We talkin' about press conferences.

 

Not by correcting mistakes in practice.

 

Not by confronting players directly.

 

We talkin' about press conferences.

 

I mean...press conferences.

It's called desperation.

 

Desperate to make the Jaguars look bad.

 

Desperate to get responses.

Nicely done Flsptsgod.

 

So, can we bring this thread up when we whoop the Texans [BAD WORD REMOVED] with a less talented, more raw squad?  I can't wait to see how mad Obrien is then!  It will make the puppy's tail wag.

Quote:Yep, all the people disagreeing with me.....lol.....meanwhile Bradley sits at 5-18/ 1-6 worst point differential in NFL 2nd straight year...

 

Yup, y'all got me!!... Laughing

 

There will likely be a point in this his rookie year, that O Brien actually passes Bradley for career wins. Thats pretty sad. 
But you admitted it's about talent, not press conferences, when it came to Mora, Ditka and Green.

I'll try to get some video to link too. 

 

 

 

It would be nice to see Gus act like THAT after any one of the six losses. Hell, Gus was all nicey nice and positive after the 5th and 6th losses while we were still winless - here in YEAR TWO. 

 

Bill O Brien on the other hand, is merely 3-4 now - in his ROOKIE year - (which isn't that bad) and yet thats clearly not acceptable to him. 

 

THATS what you'd like to see from your head coach. 

 

Its a safe bet that O Brien will go on to have more success than Bradley. O Brien gets it. He looks the Belichick/ Parcells/ Harbaugh part. Bradley is too much like Wade Phillips and is too accepting of all the losing. He seems to just want to be the players friend rather than leader. 
 

I wish I could disagree with this......... but I can't.

I am not impressed with blowing up in press conferences. I even prefer the canned we will watch film and get better approach with media. I am betting that both Gus & BOB get on their club plenty in locker room and meetings!

Exactly.

 

It's what we DON'T see that makes all of the difference in the world.

O Brien isn't going to sit back and let the losses pile up. He's only 3-4 in his rookie year (which really isn't all that bad) and that presser shows he's not going to stand for it and sit back while it continues. 

 

Bradley was 0-5/ 0-6 in his SECOND year, and still hasn't acted out as if the losing is all that big of a deal. 

 

Bradley is too much like Wade Phillips and "aw shucks" welp, we'll try harder next time and get better".....

 

 

IMO, the NFL head coaches that get the most success are the type A personalities like O Brien, Parcells, Jimmy Johnson, Bill Belichick, and the like. 

 

You accept losing and you'll continue to not have success. 
 

Damnit, I wish I could disagree with this too........... but I can't.

Look folks, this thread is started by a person who thinks a mans name has some bearing on their capacity to be successful in the NFL. His life evolves around this MB and the responses his threads bring. He cannot truly believe the garbage he posts, otherwise Darwinism would have weeded him out by now. If he truly believes that weak minded meltdown will make O'brien's players be more effective at their craft there simply is no argument that can be made as he is not capable of seeing the logic presented.

You could just tell by O'Brien's tone that commiting all those turnovers and losing the game the way they did, with the Steelers scoring 24 points in mere minutes before the 1st half ended was completely unacceptable and he let the media (and fans who were watching) know it.

 

I liked what I saw from him.

 

A HC doesn't have to go on any kind of rant to get his point across, that the teams play was unacceptable.

O Brien handles losing better

Yes its only a press conference, but it shows just how much O Brien detests and won't accept losing. Its only 3 losses in a row and his record is still at a respectable 3-4 and he's essentially drawing the line. He doesn't want his players falling into an abyss where losing is seen as tolerable. 

 

Quote:But you admitted it's about talent, not press conferences, when it came to Mora, Ditka and Green.
 

Switzer, you mean. 

 

With those three I said that they were also successful and I pointed out the correlation to their tact of not tolerating losing/ blow ups in pressers.

You know what types of coaches I hate? Those ones that think committing turnovers and allowing your opponent to score 24 points in three minutes is acceptable. Those guys drive me nuts.

Quote:TMD, you are reaching man. Houston is who we thought they were. 
 

Well whoever you think they are, a coach like O'Brien will get the best out of them with an attitude like that.

 

Remember, they were 2-14 last year and are already ahead of that, with a rookie head coach.

 

They are only a play or 2 away from being 4-3 or maybe 5-2.

 

And that's with #1 pick Clowney missing the last few games and a true journeyman QB.

 

If they do find a QB, they will be a threat to win the division
