Ben Johnson

He talks about being a first-time coach.

It didn't feel that way at all.

His ability to take, like you said, the words off the wall and push that to his players and see them respond was incredible.

Even in some of the feedback we got, these guys were –

Just doubling down on his message.

When he got to the locker room, there was no hesitation.

There was no gray area.

They pushed forward because they believed in what he was saying and what he needed from them.

All right.

My main message to him was he needs to get out of football for a little bit.

He's done a phenomenal job in terms of staying focused all year long.

He put a lot of time, a lot of effort.

I thought he grew up as a professional.

I thought.

His communication to the coaching staff grew.

I thought his communication to his teammates grew.

But we will certainly have a number of points of emphasis that he can dive into when he comes back this springtime.

But it's important for really all of us, coaches, players, supporters.

We get away for a little bit.

We hit the reset button.
