"Really the upbeat thing coming into our offseason was how positive he was and ready for that transition into this next year," Mack said this week.

Quinn's optimism has been his trademark as he enters his third season as the Atlanta Falcons' coach.
Some players have refused to address the Super Bowl loss , insisting their focus is on the future.
"Q has been this way since I've been here," Ryan said Sunday. "He's forward-thinking about constant improvement, so from that sense I don't think he's been any different. He's taking a pulse of this team, this organization, of where we're at and is trying to push us further and make us better. From that standpoint, I think he's been really similar."
For Ryan, it's just Quinn being Quinn.
"We did our due diligence over the spring to make sure we could recapture our mindset of how hard we have to work to get right,China NFL Jerseys," Quinn said. "Once we're here in the training camp, it's how good could this team get. That's really where our focus is."
FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. (AP) — Every day is a great day for Dan Quinn.
"He's very upbeat, very positive," Mack said. "Just a very real leader. He comes in and if there's anything is on his mind,Wholesale China Jerseys, he'll address it with a very positive attitude. The message has always been consistent. Hey, we're here to work really hard. We're here to have a good time doing it. Full steam ahead."
Ryan said he floundered in his "dark place" for a short time. Mack said "It took a while" for him to recover.
Even so, Ryan is 32, the team hasn't agreed to a contract extension with running back Devonta Freeman, and wide receiver Julio Jones' feet are a frequent concern.
Obviously, Quinn felt the pain when his Falcons blew a 18-point halftime lead to New England, denying the franchise's chance for its first championship. But he responded by pointing his team toward the future , including training camp, with as much optimism as he could muster.
Few coaches are granted multiple chances to win the Super Bowl. No coach has had to cope with losing a 28-3 second-half lead,China Jerseys Free Shipping.
Others, including quarterback Matt Ryan and center Alex Mack, have acknowledged the disappointment was difficult to overcome.
Quinn's upbeat demeanor never wavered, at least not in front of his players or in the public.
Quinn said he recognized it would be important to focus on his players' morale.
"Yeah, I think I am positive,Cheap NFL Jerseys China," Quinn said after Sunday's fourth practice of training camp. "I am demanding of them and of the staff and of myself,Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic, too. I definitely share the disappointment when that happens or share in how much fun it is when we have a red-zone period like we had today where it's competing and battling for it. Those are the moments I try to really stay in and not look too far down the line."
The Falcons' roster is a good reason for an optimistic outlook. Every starter except right guard Chris Chester and fullback Patrick DiMarco returns from an offense that led the league in scoring in 2016. For the third straight year, Quinn and general manager Thomas Dimitroff used the draft to boost a young, improving defense .
That optimism held firm even in the days following the biggest collapse in Super Bowl history.
He frequently opens news conferences with such declarations of enthusiasm as "Awesome on-field camp" or "We've had a great week" or "I love today and what we do today."
The optimism was never needed more than after the crushing Super Bowl loss.
Mack, a nine-year veteran who began his career in Cleveland, said Quinn's approach is "absolutely" different than most coaches.
