As Mora says "work is work". I agree with others that he seems much younger than 59. Here is a link on his journey to Mt. Kilimanjaro which he completed in 2017.

Here is a snippet. He appears to be in great shape and probably in better shape than many on the team.
Hiking up Mount Kilimanjaro wasn’t the first time Mora has climbed a mountain. In 2009, he and NFL commissioner Roger Goodell climbed Mount Rainier and raised a hundreds of thousands of dollars for the United Way.
“Jim’s in incredible shape,” Boyer said. “As far as the readings (in terms of oxygen saturation and resting heart rate) go, he was in the best shape of all of us.”

When Mora speaks you can hear the excitement the energy and the passion for coaching. That interview gives great insight to how he will approach revamping the culture and the team.
Never heard this from Pasqualoni, Diaco or Edsel.
