1. I’ve never understood people who get fired up by an NFL head coach’s introductory press conference.
While it helps to have a coach who isn’t combative with the media, “winning” a press conference is a completely useless, made-up media thing that has absolutely nothing to do with whether a guy will be a good head coach or not.
Case in point: Giants coach Joe Judge.
The headlines after Judge’s introductory press conference on Jan. 9, 2020 were glowing. Judge gave some good soundbites, so everyone was all-in on Judge before he even coached one game in his new role.
