I was taken aback when I heard the above so I had to transcribe it. His tone was like: he was genuinely surprised and couldn't believe it, team chemistry was actually good for a change (subtext, it was really, really bad before ...)

Makes me think the team was really a mess last year. Was it just Mr. Owens to blame? Sounds like it was a more widespread deal.
