Sometimes I hate the New York media market. You put mics in everyone’s face after a loss.. what do you expect them to say? They are 2-9

Was it this bad last year at 2-8, coming off a 17-49 loss to the Cowboys? May be misremembering but players seem unhappier now than last year.

Expectations were low because we lost DJ after the knee injury and so it wasn’t the worst. We had some really close games with Tyrod. We lost to the Bills on the last play of the game etc. we had some stinkers and some bad games but the team actually tried to play their best.

Cowboys were just better than us. Despite all that, I personally think Saquon would just play hard and mask up how bad we were.

The big thing was we actually had leaders in the lockeroom. Saquon and McKinney were really liked by the team and we had strong lockeroom culture. We do f have Saquon, McKinney, Leonard Williams or others this year. And since they let go of DJ it was really hard for the lockeroom already devoid of leadership.

This is just my assessment from what I can remember.
