Clearly he was on another level emotionally last night versus every other game this year. He was screaming and cursing when he was happy and he was screaming and cursing when he was mad. I liked it. Several things could be read into that I guess. What do you attribute his emotions to?

A fanbase stoking the fires of discontent I would imagine is a contributor.

I am glad to see some the attitude. He still has a way to go. He showed he is willing to adapt and change. That’s big.

Kind of forced. Bless his heart.

His anger was palpable when the crowd booed his *** for punting on 4th and an inch after trying to get cute with his playcalling on 3rd and an inch.

I heard he put on a show in the locker room

At half, called out the offensive staff and raising hell.

Based on the way he acted on the sidelines and the way we gifted them a score going into half, I bet he did put on a show at half. Seems it was well received based on the second half performance.

Definitely saw him get in Nick's face more than once when he made the wrong reads. That's a good sign.

One thing I noticed is he yanked Leo Lewis’s *** out of the game when he made that boneheaded face mask on the drive they scored at the end of the 2nd half.

I don’t think it’s all that important to yell and act like that on the sidelines. It does not make me feel better or worse about it him as a coach.

I do find it funny that people criticize him for not being fired up and an *******. However, would criticize Mullen for yelling and being an *** to coaches.

He was lighting someone up on the mic after we failed to convert on 3rd down. He turned his back to the field and held the mic by his mouth as he absolutely lite someone's *** up for 30 seconds. That I assure you wasn't forced or fake and it was awesome. However I do think Moorhead needs thicker skin if he's gonna continue to read these boards.

He reads a lot..after all he is an english major. And it's actually kind of aggravating the way he starts his pressers for an upcoming game. He reads all the statistics and where the team is ranked and how he admires their coarches and coordinators...I mean he could skip all that since we already know it...he should just cut to the questions, get it done and get out and go back to the field and coarch...

I’ve seen him do that in all three games I’ve seen live.

He better take care of himself

If he gets this intense, while being as fat and out of shape he is, I'm afraid he'll explode his heart.

I'm pretty sure Cohen had a conversation with Joe this week and told him to start showing some fire on the sidelines or the fans are going to make him fire him. The stoic sideline Joe was getting old. The team emulates its leader.

We also have to remember, he's coming from the OC position where he has to be calm, cool, and collected while the head coach is irate and screaming at refs and players. He has to do that himself now. He's learning to be a head coach also.

Unless you know for a fact that Cohen did, or said that, then I highly doubt it happened. I think he was emotional because he had said he was too conservative lately in his play calling , and he wanted to be more aggressive, and show (demonstrate) it to his players on the sideline. He really got emotional after Fitz's first touchdown, and that carried through for the remainder of the game.

That or his kids are reading and relaying to him. He certainly knows the temperment of the fans.
