ORIGINAL: Nate I think it's because Kirk is a massive planner before he can become the executor of said plan. He plans his days in small increments (or his wife does) and the structured nature of football (meeting times, study times, eat/sleep times, practice, travel, etc) gives him solace. Basically he needs a daily itinerary to function at a high level. All the mental visualization and positivity coaching is good but he's not a real-time, on the fly type of guy. Some thrive in chaos, some freeze, he's the ice man, a wedding planner with a golden arm. Has there been any noise about playing on the US Bank field? Kelce went down in a non-contact way (though he was hurt before) and then Jefferson came up lame on a cut. Seems like some fluke injuries but maybe there's more to it? I haven't heard any complaints, just seems odd. I was worried that the toxic positivity of last year's new regime might ring flat this year. Maybe they are all loving the vibe and each other still but I think the participation trophies of last year didn't carry to far over to this year. I re-watched the KC game and still get infuriated with wasting TOs because they can't get the play in, or are confused on alignment, or do a dumb situational challenge. Despite seemingly getting jobbed by the refs at the end, we may as well keep the draft dreams alive, especially with JJ out :(. Watching the college QBs last week there are a few that are pretty interesting. After Caleb, there is a shuffle between the next 4-5 but even if we don't win the Caleb powerball we can still pick up a potential dandy. I hope our scouting and drafting improve a ton, if KAM blows next year he's gotta go. The Kelce brother have a podcast (and it's pretty entertaining, imo). They talked about it. In general, Travis doesn't like turf (Jason really hates it)... but didn't slam Banks turf for being any worse than others. Said he rolled his ankle and turf can kind of catch your cleats where grass it would give. Said basically he has to adjust how he makes moves when playing on turf. It was interesting to get detailed player explanation on it.
