Revisiting Schoen's Bye-Week Presser

[MightyGiants]

With tongue firmly in cheek 


"We've been competitive in the games. We've got to find ways to finish games. That's what we'll do the rest of the week."

The best way to not have to worry about finishing games is to not start in the first place

(on Daboll) "He's done a really good job, the guys are competing, keeping the locker room together. Again, we're in these games. We're in these games."

Oops, might have spoke too soon

"I saw a stat last week, I think it was through Week 9 of the NFL season, I don't have the updated Week 10 (stats), but it's the most one score games in the history of the NFL. That's what it is. It's close games, there's parity. We're 1-and-5 in those close games. We're going to look for solutions and find ways"

I am proud to announce we found a solution to the one-score game problem


Q: How do you see Daniel (Jones), specifically his long-term future with the franchise?

JOE SCHOEN: We have seven games left in this season and that's what we're focused on. I'm focused on 2024 and how we can get better these final seven games

Can I get a mulligan on that one?


(part of answer when asked about letting good players leave)  "There's some young pieces here in place in terms of the foundation that we're going to continue to build on. Another year of free agency and another draft, we're not far off. We're not far off."

On a completely unrelated note, has anyone ever heard the saying-  "You are so far back you think you're in the lead"?


JOE SCHOEN: Yeah, we're going to evaluate it the rest of the week and the decisions we make will be football decisions.

Q: I mean is it intended to give your team the best chance to win? Is that the decision? Whatever quarterback?

JOE SCHOEN: That's what we are here to do. We're going to do the best football decision for us to win games.

Imagine how bad we would have been if I was making business decisions instead


"We're not getting blown out in those games."

Ahh, the good old days, when I could say things like that (starts to sing the song "Memories"

We interrupt this lame attempt at comedy to get Brian Burn's take (not sure if he is talking the situation with the team or MightyGiant's post
