HuSeYiN_NYC Posted November 11, 2017 Posted November 11, 2017 Well we've seen many post game locker room speeches so my guess would be it's similar to that but more serious with team captains speaking to their group. Another guess would be that all sides of the ball are separated so that the coordinators can speak to THEIR guys only and maybe right before they come back on the field, McDermott probably gives a team "protect the dirt" or "make sure you bring your process" speech on the way out. 1
BuffaloBillyG Posted November 11, 2017 Posted November 11, 2017 Mostly adjustments a quick bathroom break would be my best bet. I'm sure coaches say something.

Yep, by the time they get in locker room and sit down , it's time to go back out...half time adjustments are a myth...every team has a computer on the sidelines and instant video of the game...adjustments are made all during the game
The Now Moment Posted November 11, 2017 Posted November 11, 2017 I see McDermott giving a few individual talks to certain players including the leaders on the team and then addressing the team as a whole to kick some ash in the second half. Or maybe it's just him clapping???
machine gun kelly Posted November 11, 2017 Posted November 11, 2017 Agree with the above poster. They divide up and position and coordinators speak briefly what to watch out for in the second half and maybe 30 seconds from McDermott. These incredibly inspirational halftime talks are for the movies. they simply don't have the time. Think about it. A running 15 minute clock, taking off equipment to go to the bathroom, and get rehydrated. They make adjustments all game long.
Nick the Greek Posted November 11, 2017 Posted November 11, 2017 A fiery win one for the gipper speech. I bet Marrone would have been good at that.

Coordinators talking to the various sides about adjustments to be made (whether the team is winning or losing), and then perhaps something form the HC to get them pumped up. 1 hour ago, Idandria said: A fiery win one for the gipper speech.

row_33 Posted November 11, 2017 Posted November 11, 2017 Rodney Marsh during his soccer heyday in England was told by his manager that if he didn’t play better that he was going to get pulled off at halftime. Rodney noted immediately that at Chelsea they only game him tea and an orange slice. ——- at halftime Bobby Knight tells his team he is sick and tired of losing to Purdue.
transient Posted November 11, 2017 Posted November 11, 2017 I'm not sure I understand the perspective of the question. Is she asking in general, or is she asking what the Bills do, or is she asking what Belichick does? I'm not certain about the first two, but apparently Belichick promises to feed on the souls of players' innocent children if they don't cheat their way to a win.
JPP Posted November 12, 2017 Posted November 12, 2017 Back in the Rex Ryan days they would have a solid game of ping pong to relieve their frustrations.......
