Love Jim Mora. Dude is so ridiculously funny and doesn’t even realize it

Used to live in Palm Desert, CA. You won't find one person who has something negative to say about Mora. Such a class act. With him it's not about being wrong or right but 100% real with yourself and others. With JM, you know what you're getting. What a guy!

“Strong men also cry.” Yeah, I know. Jim Mora senior taught us that. This man deserves more respect for caring about the game he loves and job he once gave his all to.

Jim Mora is all f-ing heart! He loved his players and loves the game and that makes him a better man and a better coach than most! I bet he is an awesome dad. I'd love to have had a man like him in my life growing up!!

jim mora has not aged, wow

The accomplishments of Jim Mora Sr. gets overlooked often times because of his rants with the media. He turned around some losing franchises at the time, especially the Saints.

"We just got our ass totally kicked. We couldn't do diddly-poo offensively."

Better to be remembered for something than nothing at least. He's 82? Wow, he looks good for it!

Saints fans Love you, Coach Mora. We had some great times, some big wins, and lots of excitement.

I've been a Saints fan since 72. Coach Mora changed the entire culture.. I got nothing but love for him

Loved Jim Mora... Football 🏈 misses a man like him

1:12 Wow that New Orleans native looks like he could rip defenses apart if just given the opportunity

I miss that guy. He may have a few soundbites from different interviews but he def improved the teams vs what he started with

There needs to be A Football Life on Jim Mora

“Well what happened was...” forever a legend in my eyes.

God Bless Jim Mora! A True NFL Coaching Legend and Very underrated. He may not have been successful in the postseason but he laid the ground work and foundation for 2 teams that became successful. Not to mention, developed many successful players in the league who became house hold names.

He was the first to get the Saints winning seasons. His honesty let the fans know exactly what was wrong. Today Dennis Allen just smiles after getting railroaded by almost every team.

Man, this dude is ageless. He's had white hair longer than I have been alive lmfao

Even in his older age he is very candid. "19 years, you have to work at that."

The first rant is so funny because he did not waste no time. He came straight into the press conference with the rant on deck. "We didn't try to run the ball.." Lmaooo

If it makes Coach Mora feel better, I prefer the "You. Will. Never. Know" rant to the "Playoffs?" rant.

From a Saints fan. Thank you for the dome patrol

To have his son speak about him the way Jim Mora, Jr. did shows that Jim Sr. was indeed a winner !

3:45 I laughed for 5 minutes 😂

Lucky enough to see mr mora almost every day on the course here, not gonna mention which, but he’s a class act through and through. Always greets everyone with a big warm smile and inquires how us staff are doing In a way that shows he actually cares about our wellbeing.

You know, I'd be proud to have a man like him as the head coach of my favourite football team, he's honest, passionate and open and he never gives up, what more could you ever ask for?

Actually I think the funniest part of this video was the “useless” exchange with that reporter. Mora let him have it and it was hilarious.... especially when he told him that two of his comments were both dumb. 😂

I’ll always remember Jim Mora for what he did for the New Orleans Saints

The polar opposite of Dennis Allen. Sean Payton was like Mora, except he used that energy at the practice facility instead of the cameras. Aside from Payton, Mora is my favorite Saints coach.

A great, honest, sincere guy. No bullshit. Love him.

He was a good coach. The Saints were an expansion team without a prayer and they had several winning seasons with him. Those were not underachieving years like say the 49ers going 8-8 with Singletary.

As a Saints fan, the only time I was happy with ATL winning a playoff game was that divisional against the Rams.

When it comes to Jim Mora, we all remember the epic "Playoff" rant. lol

Jim Mora’s Playoff rant, and Allen Iverson Practice rant are still my favourite media Outburts of all time

Mora's 93 wins were 66 more than #2 (Bum) on the Saints' coaching list at the time. Tom Fears: 13-34-2 JD Roberts: 7-25-3 John North: 11-23 Ernie Hefferle: 1-7 Stram: 7-21 Nolan: 15-29 Bum: 27-42 Wade: 1-3 Mora: 93-78 Rick Venturi: 1-7 DItka: 15-33 Haslett: 46-52 Payton: 162-87 (doesn't count 2012 suspension)

Coach Mora was one of a kind. God speed, Coach.

I like that mentality. there is no useless games

He was one two point conversion away from a clean sweep of the USFL championships

I always love that man. Coach, I'd do it again! "Dome Patrol!"

0:35 The way he walked on stage and started that diddley poo speech is funny in itself.

Most underrated coach in NFL history.

Well we found out why coaches are so tight lipped nowadays with the media. Mora’s criticism of Manning throwing 4 interceptions cost him his job.

As a TV station sports intern I got to interview him coming off an airplane in 1987. No rant.

Mora was always genuine, now a rare quality among NFL coaches.

I love this guy.

Love Jim Mora. He's more than just the "Playfoffs" guy. A great man!

Love Jim Mora.

Mora Sr. to coach the Browns, please.

Since most if not all of the "A Football Life" shows on NFL Network have a happy ending, I doubt there'll be one on Jim Mora since his career had a bitter ending. But this is the next best thing. Brilliant video!

Playoffs? Playoffs? You kidding me, you talking about playoffs? I just hope we can win a game!

That first clip he didn’t even wait for the questions LOL

That “playoffs” rant will be on his headstone. Lol, Mora was a really good coach and probably the best HC interview in the history of the NFL.

nice story with manning. one of my favorite coaches... glad this was uploaded

17:39 man that was hard to watch. Such a sad moment

Nicely done. Sports and family. All wrapped up in one.

Is that Ron Swoboba, the former Mets OF? That bastard made the luckiest catch in the 69 WS!!

At least he is remembered for something. There are so many losing coaches that have been forgotten. For example his son was also a losing coach and nobody remembers him.

I want to care as much about something, anything as Jim Mora did about football and coaching football. I don't know what it feels like and I am damn jealous

Overweight neckbearded sports reporters who have never stepped foot on a football field asking coach's dumb questions is a tale as old as time.

The Stars where a dam good team. If they brought that whole team into the NFL they would not have been the worst. I know I watched every Stars game. Thank you coach.....Noah

What a legend!

Live this dude. 😂 The game ain't quite the same without him

One of my favorite all time coaches

"Those are some sick, sick, sick people...."

LEGEND

62 maybe, but 82!!! Bless me with such good graces.

Playoffs?? Playoffs?? Don’t talk about playoffs? I hope we just win a game another game

Classic⚜️⚜️🖤💛

#JimMoraSr should be given that film as an NFT and then license it as a retroactive argument against the College Football Playoff system.

God Bless Jim Mora! 😀🏈⚜ #WhoDat #GoSaints

Archie Manning was the quarterback for the Saints for ten seasons. Just want to clear that up in case somebody doesn't know. It was said that Peyton Manning would deliberately throw those interceptions, just to spite Mora. Because prior, it was also the popular consensus among fans that Saints would deliberately lose games, but that wasn't really the case. The Saints would always run out of steam and be completely exhausted by the end of the last quarter, some say because Mora would push them too hard. Mora was a legendary coach and it's sad. Some of the clips in this video have never been seen before. Mora deserved the world. Mora absolutely transformed the Saints. There was no Internet then. Absolute legend.

With playoff time here, it makes me wanna watch this.

I’ve always thought “Playoffs?!” was a little overrated. I’ll always prefer “Diddly poo!” That one’s gold 👍

He's like if Jimmy Stewart and Don Knotts had a kid

Everyone who likes football has a Jim Mora playoffs?! impression and they are all equally funny.

He looked better in 2017 than he did in 2001 - Faulk was exactly right. Although he probably misses coaching, the stress free life of not coaching probably added years to his life.

At 12:26 Peyton grabs his ear like Carol Burnette used to at the end of her show to tell her mother she loved her. Was Peyton telling someone he loved them?

all afc east coaches at the beginning.. the best afc east divison all-time! bring back the colts!

When he retired he was the only NFL coach in history with 100+ wins that never won a PLAYOFF?! game. He was later joined in that exclusive club by Marvin Lewis.

Steelers need Jim Mora!

⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️ the league could use him today

4:00 That is hilarious

Do a NFL flims presentation on James Develin's journey to the NFL. It is a long and twisting road.

Glad to hear Peyton say that.

Damn his son was the defensive coach of that 49ers game that made his dad go on that rant....lol props

I tell it like it is and was told one time to basically change my personality.

WHODAT !!!

Jim Mora really should’ve not been fired from the Colts when he got fired. But on the token I think Jim Mora should’ve gotten another opportunity to coach another team.

Jim Mora needs to embrace the memes. They're awesome.

Damn I want him back. Give me Jim Mora over Dennis Allen.

That must be the Ron Swoboda that played for the Mets

Jim morra New Orleans cant stop winning when you left. It just took a real organization to put it together

He looked older when he was coaching in the usfl.

“Dare I say now, coach, it’s September, but the Saints are 0-3... will they make the playoffs?”

good vid. yea jim mora is one of those types of ppl where when they get emotional it can take over and they make decisions based off emotion rather than logic. Good guy tho

His moments were classic Diddly Poo Playoffs Could’ve would’ve should’ve You think you know but you don’t know

17:38 when I lose online games

December 2021. Jim Mora, Jr. is the new Head Coach for the Huskies of the University of Connecticut. I think he needs to bring his dad onto the staff...as the UCONN football spokesman. It's UCONN football, there will be plenty to set Jim Mora SR off. 😆

PLAYOFFSSS!!

Cheers to the man who made diddly poo a household word.
