Stroud was on tilt but ready for sunday
Finally got around to watching his conference on the 6th.
I am 💯 reading between the lines here with my title "quote".
He frequently mentioned in his interview that him and the team need to get back to having fun. That they were feeling sorry for themselves with injuries and the short week. The morale and energy was low on Thursday. Understandable as it can be hard to take that many sacks in a 5 day timeframe.
The extra time let him repair his mind and soul. Recognize the other team is going to make plays and he needs to accept it and make the next play. That as a team they need to do a better job cheering each other on and being hyped when the defense makes a stop.
I know many of us saw him frustrated, missing open receivers and throws he usually makes. His interview showed me a good chance to heal the mental health and approach Sunday night with a winning mentality.
Sharing for others who saw similar issues mounting and to be hopeful we see a new life this week.
