Good Vibes – Iggles BlitzNick Sirianni held three press conferences this week and he looked different.
He felt less defensive and more optimistic. Sometimes hitting rock bottom can be a good thing.
Perhaps the players and coaches realized they were still quite lucky. Plus the season isn’t over yet.
They still have a chance to do something good. The world is not falling apart. You will never change things by burying your head in the sand and feeling depressed. All you can do is keep grinding.
Or maybe go to an escape room. It doesn’t feel like a team is falling apart. Maybe I’m too optimistic.
Maybe I’m looking for something good. But this week there is a different atmosphere around the team.
Even if that were true, it means nothing if it doesn’t translate into better play on the field. The team has led 20-3 and 21-6 in the last two weeks.
They had a chance to wide open both games. Unfortunately, the team suffocated on both occasions, losing to the Cardinals and nearly losing to the Giants.
If the Eagles can play with more spirit, maybe they can finally give us the shot we’ve all been waiting for.
