Just a routine post-practice interview from the 90s that I probably watch twice a year

I don’t know if it’s nostalgia talking but the league back then was full of ‘character’ coaches that made it fun - Mora, Ditka, Shula, Parcells, Ryan, Glanville, Whyche, Johnson. Even the dull coaches (Walsh, Gibbs) had more personality than today’s template. Everyone seems so ‘corporate’ these days.

@sdc0_94 Different types of owners too Irsay, DeBartolo, Adams, Davis, Wilson, Modell, etc

Yep.. people who provided colour and controversy, owners you could love or hate, or both. Tom Benson too, with his brolly wielding antics. I miss those days, but can’t deny the lack of personalities hasn’t harmed league popularity or profitability any

@sdc0_94 @SandoNFL I was just thinking this too. If you put the Head Coaches of the Bengals , Packers, Seahawks, Bears and Titans in a lineup I’d be hard pressed to tell you who was who .

@SandoNFL Yes, same here. Titans, Seahawks and Panthers especially. I still have to look up their names, even after just watching one of their games!

One of the underrated parts of this is at about 1:06 when he follows up with a question for the media

“Stowers??” 😂

Poor Stowers just going about his day

Guy’s just out there having a good camp

I'd have looked like an un professional clown covering Mora, just laughing like a school girl whenever he opened his mouth. Dude is hilarious.

Loved him as a non fan of the Saints or Colts

I so very wish this was still the vibe.

The “Dean” he keeps referencing is …

Anytime I see a press availability clip with Mora I tune in. Just hilarious in his incredulity and low-key disdain.

Legend.

“I don’t take into account shit.” One of my favorite little sound bites of all time lol.

He pulled no punches, which is what we needed having been so bad for so long.

I’d much rather listen to a coach that acts like he hates everyone on his team than one that acts like he loves everyone on his team. So good.

Shit.

This might be the absolute best interview I’ve ever heard. 🤣🤣🤣

There should be a Jim Mora Museum where his interviews run perpetually.

Awesome! Now I have to go find Jim Mora Sr.’s iconic, “You THINK you know, but you don’t…….and you never will” rant….

I got two I watch parts of

I will never get tired of these

I love this so much.

Isn’t it amazing?

A much going on. And Stowers made the team!

You got the unvarnished truth from Coach Mora.

A lot of asses got nailed back then

@MikeTriplett Smart man, saved the diddlypoo for the live national cameras

@dans_hat Mike, you would probably enjoy the “Greatest Jim Mora Rants” tournament bracket that we did years ago on our podcast. Probably some deep cuts you’ve never heard. ——->>

Twice year? This should be watched twice a day.

What year was this specifically? Lol

1992

Never saw before, thanks for sharing

"Let me tell you about Stowers" is definitely a meme you can use this Saturday in the Vandy/Bama game

@JosinaAnderson would hate the way this coach is talking…

As a kid I couldn’t appreciate Mora but as an adult I freaking love him.

Saints were one of the worst few franchises in the league, until his arrival there and he completely turned it around. Doesn't get enough credit for that imo

The 80’s and early 90’s were the golden age of NFL coaches! Such a cast of characters, today’s coaches are boring as hell.

No need to ask coach to be more direct.

I am hearing Jimmy Stewart.

Gosh, what happened to us? Why can't we talk like this anymore? We're all thinking it anyway. Honesty is virtuous.

PLAYOFFS! PLAYOFFS?
