VikeFans Tidbits from the LockerRoom
* Adam Thielen spent time dogging David Morgan after our interview. "Star of the game...player of the week, he's the big cheese". All in fun and they had a time with him. Stefon Diggs stepped in and added "1 f*cking pass catch, 1! Where my interview?" Again, typical guy trash talking
* We spoke briefly in passing to Teddy Bridgewater (he did a pooled interview, but we typically don't cover those, as it's the same story for everyone). He was so happy, and glad to be back
* CJ Ham says he gladly will take the title from Leroy Hoard ("need a yard, I'll get you 3. Need 5? I'll get you three")
* Never seen a guy look so tired after a game than Brian Robison did. He was just spent and sat in his locker room chair for about half an hour
* What food did the players get for the bus ride to the charter flight from Reagan National Airport? Chicken, brisket and ribs.
* Linval Joseph spent the evening trying to video bomb our interviews. You will clearly see his smiling mug block Pete Bercich during our post game show
* Nick Easton said he was so happy to be healthy and back on the field.
Just a few of the things we saw, that we wanted to share.
Robison had to be tired. Not much rotation out there without EG. Brian was on the field alot and made some big plays down the stretch
Thanks Tom, love getting a flavor for where these guys heads are at...
Ha! So Linval was all over the field AND all over the interviews??? Big man was extra feisty today...
BOOM
Just so he was a bit more gentle in the locker room. Dude was a beast on the field

We've been lucky enough to get close to several of them. When that happens, they seek you out before games, and that is the coolest part of this role. It's no longer star athletes and media/fans, it's just regular guys doing a job, having fun and paying the mortgages.

Tip ball on fourth down to me was huge.
That and Johnsons sack on fourth down. Those two plays to me were really helpful in slowing and stopping Washington. I know they all played hard and there were other key plays on 1st through 3rd down but those two stuck out to me.

He is such a proud dad. He is a gentle giant. Hard shell on the field, soft center off it. BRob was all over the place. I can totally see why he was spent. He definitely left it all on the field.
This is the kind of stuff I find interesting, keep it up.
