‘Second Chances’ – Ron Rivera Delivers Passionate Speech After Washington Football Team’s Stunning Victory
Follow Us
In football or any other sport, oftentimes players find themselves fighting an inner battle rather than one on the sporting field. In such situations, you need a strong leader or a guide who can point you in the right direction. Such a figure can help channelize your energy in a positive manner which ultimately translates to results on the field.
In head coach Ron Rivera, Washington Football Team has the perfect personality to fill that role. The experienced NFL coach arrived in the American capital last year. He managed to lead the team to the playoffs last season and intends to do the same in 2021.

However, he also added that the team’s defense needs to improve in the coming weeks.
“There are too many good football players for us not to play better than what we did today. That is the big disappointment because they are good football players, and we just have to correct some things,” Rivera added via the team’s official post-game transcript.
Second-year defensive star Chase Young echoed the same sentiment following last night’s nervy win in front of home fans.

“It wasn’t pretty. It wasn’t pretty, but we got that s— done…We came out, got the W, and at the end of the day, that’s all that matters. It feels good. A packed stadium. Then, you know, this long weekend. It’s bad when you just took an L. I’m glad we came out with this dub,” Young said following the win.
