Pleasant, good evening everybody, and 0:00:39.320 --> 0:00:42.080 welcome into the Bears Coaches Show featuring Head Coach Matt 0:00:42.080 --> 0:00:44.760 and Maggie. Jeff joni Ac Wrapping things up in London 0:00:44.880 --> 0:00:47.919 as the Bears fall to the Oakland Raiders, a home 0:00:47.960 --> 0:00:49.959 game of the Raiders. It was weird, Matt seeing all 0:00:50.200 --> 0:00:53.800 the color schemes because it was such a combined effort, obviously, 0:00:53.840 --> 0:00:56.200 but it was a Raiders home game. Now, it didn't 0:00:56.520 --> 0:00:59.760 sound like a Raiders home game. What was your perspective 0:00:59.760 --> 0:01:02.520 of the Bears contingent they made their way down here, Yeah, 0:01:02.560 --> 0:01:04.479 it was really it was. It was cool to see 0:01:04.520 --> 0:01:06.240 all the fans. You could hear them from the start, 0:01:06.319 --> 0:01:09.240 you know, first of all Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. There is 0:01:09.959 --> 0:01:12.840 is a really really special stadium and they do it 0:01:12.920 --> 0:01:15.440 the right way. Um. You could just feel the energy 0:01:15.480 --> 0:01:17.600 and the vibe at the start of the game and 0:01:17.600 --> 0:01:20.040 and so, um, you know, we appreciate all the fans 0:01:20.160 --> 0:01:22.000 that that came out and supported us. With all the 0:01:22.280 --> 0:01:24.560 Bears jerseys, you could certainly see there was there was 0:01:24.600 --> 0:01:27.400 a lot of Bears fans in that stadium. We are 0:01:27.440 --> 0:01:30.760 brought to you by Whipley CPAs and Consultant Site. Let's 0:01:30.760 --> 0:01:33.200 start breaking down the game. Let's start on the offensive 0:01:33.240 --> 0:01:35.040 side of the ball. And you stayed up all night 0:01:35.080 --> 0:01:37.440 to watch the tape. So what'd you find out? Yeah, 0:01:37.480 --> 0:01:39.360 you know it's uh, it's one of those deals where 0:01:39.520 --> 0:01:41.560 we talked about you need to be able to uh 0:01:41.720 --> 0:01:44.160 to start and make statement plays from play number one. 0:01:44.200 --> 0:01:47.240 And you know, we ended up having sixteen plays in 0:01:47.360 --> 0:01:50.640 the in the first half and and uh, um, when 0:01:50.720 --> 0:01:53.000 you do that, you're not you're not getting first downs. 0:01:53.000 --> 0:01:55.760 You know. The first drive we put together some nice 0:01:55.800 --> 0:01:58.000 plays and then we had back to back penalties which 0:01:58.000 --> 0:01:59.880 set us into us a second and twenty five and 0:02:00.040 --> 0:02:02.800 a third and twenty and um, those are those are 0:02:02.800 --> 0:02:05.080 hard to make. Up. So just to start the game 0:02:05.080 --> 0:02:08.079 there with two penalties after moving the ball to midfield 0:02:08.080 --> 0:02:11.160 after a few first downs. Um, we did flip the field, 0:02:11.200 --> 0:02:13.200 but we'd like to get points there. And then yet 0:02:13.240 --> 0:02:15.080 the next couple of possessions there in the first half, 0:02:15.080 --> 0:02:16.760 we had some three and outs and we had we 0:02:16.800 --> 0:02:19.560 had the interception as well. So, uh, you get to 0:02:19.600 --> 0:02:22.600 the third quarter and um, are we we fed off 0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:25.000 of that the turnover that they had. We were more 0:02:25.080 --> 0:02:28.080 aggressive in the past game and made some things happen, 0:02:28.080 --> 0:02:30.760 and Alan Robinson and those wide receivers really stepped up. Yeah, 0:02:30.800 --> 0:02:35.000 they really. I mean Chase put balls in play for 0:02:35.040 --> 0:02:37.120 them to go and make a play. And you know 0:02:37.160 --> 0:02:40.480 that's also responsibility obviously of a receiver sometimes to to 0:02:40.639 --> 0:02:43.560 go and make the play that's offered you. Uh. And 0:02:43.919 --> 0:02:47.040 that happened quite a bit in the game and inspire. 0:02:47.080 --> 0:02:49.320 It was inspiring point of the game. I thinking, okay, 0:02:49.520 --> 0:02:52.359 things are things are looking good here. Um. So from 0:02:52.440 --> 0:02:54.480 that point of view, do you like the way the 0:02:54.560 --> 0:02:57.440 receivers played, I think Chase Daniel Yeah, no, they played 0:02:57.480 --> 0:03:01.120 really well and Chase, Chase gave them opportunities. And that's 0:03:01.120 --> 0:03:03.280 what this is all about, is letting your your playmakers 0:03:03.280 --> 0:03:06.560 make plays, and they did that yesterday. Um there's a 0:03:06.560 --> 0:03:08.720 few plays that we all want back. I know, you know, 0:03:08.800 --> 0:03:11.960 just talking to Chase yesterday. Um, there there's there's a 0:03:11.960 --> 0:03:13.799 couple that just stick out right away with him and 0:03:14.040 --> 0:03:16.360 he understands that and we all understand that. And then 0:03:16.600 --> 0:03:19.560 you know, of course, uh uh you know it all 0:03:19.639 --> 0:03:21.680 it does really all start up front. It starts up 0:03:21.720 --> 0:03:24.200 front with those other line and D line and UM 0:03:24.400 --> 0:03:27.959 players and the run game. We got to improve the 0:03:28.520 --> 0:03:32.880 throws that were intercepted. He takes responsibility for the last 0:03:32.919 --> 0:03:35.760 one in particular that you wish he had that one back. 0:03:35.800 --> 0:03:37.760 Obviously could have put us in a position to get 0:03:37.760 --> 0:03:41.000 a field goal at a minimum. Um. But when it's 0:03:41.200 --> 0:03:44.400 when it's so blatantly an interception, there's always a story 0:03:44.440 --> 0:03:46.840 though behind it. It's not just he sees somebody and 0:03:46.880 --> 0:03:49.600 he throws a right to him. And those two interceptions, 0:03:49.600 --> 0:03:51.320 what do you what do you think he was seeing? Well, 0:03:51.320 --> 0:03:54.040 the first one, uh, he lost vision of the of 0:03:54.120 --> 0:03:57.080 the the middle linebacker and he couldn't couldn't see him 0:03:57.120 --> 0:03:59.920 through the through some of the linemen and so obviously 0:04:00.200 --> 0:04:02.320 he wouldn't have thrown the football if he saw him 0:04:02.560 --> 0:04:04.720 on the first one and then the last one there 0:04:04.760 --> 0:04:07.000 at the end. You know, it's just one of those 0:04:07.000 --> 0:04:10.880 deals where he lost vision of the defensive back dropping back, 0:04:11.200 --> 0:04:13.880 he looked like he was playing his man on the outside, 0:04:13.880 --> 0:04:16.320 and then he fell off of it and felt to throw. 0:04:16.480 --> 0:04:18.880 So it really looked like, you know, throwing into double 0:04:18.920 --> 0:04:22.000 coverage with no one there. So that's a part of this. 0:04:22.080 --> 0:04:24.719 It's it's I know, Chase is more frustrated than anybody 0:04:24.800 --> 0:04:26.840 right now that it came down to that because we 0:04:26.839 --> 0:04:28.719 were in a position there all that said, how we 0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:31.600 played to either tie it up or going for the win. 0:04:31.800 --> 0:04:35.920 So we gotta again, like always, we used this adversity 0:04:35.960 --> 0:04:38.799 to make us stronger. And the run game, as obviously, 0:04:38.920 --> 0:04:41.560 was your hot button yesterday. You've brought it up many times. 0:04:42.640 --> 0:04:45.919 You were not happy about it when you don't have 0:04:45.960 --> 0:04:48.080 a lot of snaps, though, at the same time, how 0:04:48.120 --> 0:04:50.280 do you get it started. I mean, when you're just 0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:52.560 if you fail on a couple of drives and then 0:04:52.600 --> 0:04:54.359 you don't get the snaps because they're on in the clock. 0:04:54.520 --> 0:04:57.400 Is that part of the issue for yesterday? Well, yeah, 0:04:57.400 --> 0:05:01.920 I would say yesterday was really a a snapshot of 0:05:02.160 --> 0:05:05.520 you know, just uh, us not getting going with the 0:05:05.600 --> 0:05:08.960 run game and struggling there with a combination of them 0:05:09.040 --> 0:05:11.360 dominating the run game, you know, and so the time 0:05:11.360 --> 0:05:13.880 of possession and they were stubborn with it and they 0:05:13.880 --> 0:05:16.159 were having success with it. You know, they were you know, 0:05:16.279 --> 0:05:19.760 three four or five six seven yards per pop uh 0:05:19.800 --> 0:05:22.880 and we were zero one two, zero one two, you know, 0:05:22.920 --> 0:05:26.000 one of those. So uh, it's just it's uh, it's 0:05:26.000 --> 0:05:28.240 about rhythm. It always has been for us. And in 0:05:28.440 --> 0:05:30.960 this game, you gotta be able to run the ball, 0:05:31.440 --> 0:05:33.800 uh at least to start and and try to get 0:05:33.839 --> 0:05:35.960 that thing going and not be one dimensional. And they 0:05:35.960 --> 0:05:38.720 did that yesterday and we didn't. Matt Nagi is here 0:05:38.760 --> 0:05:40.600 on the Bears Coaches Show from London, brought to you 0:05:40.680 --> 0:05:44.599 by Whippley CPAs and Consultants. As you look at what 0:05:45.240 --> 0:05:48.479 you need to try and do to spark the running game. Um, 0:05:48.640 --> 0:05:51.159 is this one of the bigger challenges that you've had? Yeah, 0:05:51.160 --> 0:05:54.200 it'll be well, yeah, and that's that's that's why why 0:05:54.279 --> 0:05:56.480 I'm here, you know, that's why we're here is to 0:05:56.480 --> 0:05:59.160 figure it out. It's not to uh, you know, complain 0:05:59.240 --> 0:06:01.960 and moan. It's not about complaints. It's about answers and 0:06:02.440 --> 0:06:05.200 until we get this thing solved, you know, we got 0:06:05.200 --> 0:06:07.520 to figure out the why parts. So the buy does 0:06:07.560 --> 0:06:10.000 come at a time now where we can put you know, 0:06:10.080 --> 0:06:12.080 we can step away for a little bit and dig 0:06:12.120 --> 0:06:15.039 into that tape and self scout ourselves and see what 0:06:15.120 --> 0:06:17.040 it's all about and not be looking at other opponents. 0:06:17.040 --> 0:06:18.599 But let's just look at us, and let's try to 0:06:18.640 --> 0:06:22.120 figure out how we stay positive and how we get answers. 0:06:22.120 --> 0:06:24.040 And I have no doubt that what the coaches and 0:06:24.080 --> 0:06:27.120 players that we have will do that. For those who 0:06:27.440 --> 0:06:29.240 are into the xs and o's of the game, you're 0:06:29.279 --> 0:06:31.440 not going to reveal scheme and so forth. But has 0:06:31.440 --> 0:06:34.000 there been an adjustment in how you guys have attacked 0:06:34.000 --> 0:06:36.800 the run this year versus now zero? This comes down 0:06:36.839 --> 0:06:39.599 to Jeff ru I mean, it's an it. This game's 0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:42.040 about winning your one on one battle. You know, I 0:06:42.080 --> 0:06:44.800 hate making it harder than that. It really is real. 0:06:44.920 --> 0:06:47.200 It's really simple when you're one on one battle. If 0:06:47.200 --> 0:06:49.440 you do that, you'll win a lot of football games. 0:06:50.360 --> 0:06:54.279 Matt in terms of the performance of guys like Anthony 0:06:54.360 --> 0:06:57.200 MILLERK got more involved Chase Feld. He had a good 0:06:57.240 --> 0:06:59.600 connection with him, a growing connection with them. What'd you 0:06:59.640 --> 0:07:02.600 see from seventeen? Same thing. He brought energy. You know. Uh, 0:07:03.000 --> 0:07:04.839 when you have that, you get guys. And when you 0:07:04.880 --> 0:07:08.240 have energy and you have guys that compete, um, you 0:07:08.279 --> 0:07:10.600 have playmakers. And you saw that yesterday. Put a chase, 0:07:10.640 --> 0:07:12.480 put a throw up to him where he was covered 0:07:12.520 --> 0:07:14.480 and he went up and that was winning a one 0:07:14.520 --> 0:07:16.280 on one battle. He made a play and when you 0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:19.280 do that, good things happen. And then the performance of 0:07:19.600 --> 0:07:23.000 JP Holts on that one catch. I mean he looked 0:07:23.040 --> 0:07:26.360 like a fullback running straight up vertical sixteen yards. That 0:07:26.480 --> 0:07:28.360 was an impressive play by him. Yeah, it was a 0:07:28.440 --> 0:07:31.480 nice little gap screen that that that the guy's executed 0:07:31.520 --> 0:07:34.640 really well. Um. And you know when he packs a 0:07:34.720 --> 0:07:36.520 punch now after he catches that ball and he looks, 0:07:36.640 --> 0:07:39.160 lowers that shoulder, Yeah, and he makes you lunch. You're 0:07:39.160 --> 0:07:40.800 gonna hurt a little bit when you tackle him. So 0:07:40.840 --> 0:07:42.960 that that's that's stuff we like. You'd like to have 0:07:43.000 --> 0:07:44.520 more of those, but we like what he's been doing. 0:07:44.560 --> 0:07:48.000 The last couple of weeks. The Bears Coaches Show with 0:07:48.080 --> 0:07:51.280 head coach Matt Maggie and w bbm' Jeff Joni Act 0:07:51.320 --> 0:07:54.119 continues joined the season ticket priority list for the future. 0:07:54.120 --> 0:07:56.720 Opportunity to become a season ticket older visit Chicago Bears 0:07:56.760 --> 0:07:59.560 dot com slash tickets to join. Now there's a coach 0:07:59.560 --> 0:08:02.560 mat Maggie with check Briganto coming up shortly as the 0:08:02.560 --> 0:08:06.400 Bears pack up and leave London. Overall, the experience obviously 0:08:06.480 --> 0:08:09.520 soured by the loss. So it's always hard after you 0:08:09.640 --> 0:08:11.240 go on a trip like this because it has a 0:08:11.280 --> 0:08:13.720 playoff field as almost a super Bowl feel to it. 0:08:14.840 --> 0:08:19.000 And but what were your takeaways from the whole experience. Well, 0:08:19.000 --> 0:08:21.600 it happens quick and it's not a you know, this 0:08:21.720 --> 0:08:23.520 was simply put for us. We had one mission to 0:08:23.520 --> 0:08:25.600 come over here and win. We didn't accomplish that mission, 0:08:25.720 --> 0:08:30.120 so you have to regroup. Now there's I just I appreciate, 0:08:30.720 --> 0:08:33.959 regardless of the outcome, I appreciate the help of all 0:08:33.960 --> 0:08:36.800 of our departments within the organization to make things go 0:08:36.880 --> 0:08:39.480 as smoothly as possible, all things considered. You know, everyone 0:08:39.520 --> 0:08:42.640 goes back and forth in regards to It's put it 0:08:42.640 --> 0:08:45.200 this way, it's really easy to make assumptions that, yeah, 0:08:45.040 --> 0:08:46.800 you guys should have came out here at the beginning 0:08:46.800 --> 0:08:48.160 of the week. I mean, you could say that for 0:08:48.160 --> 0:08:49.959 every time every team that comes out here and go 0:08:49.960 --> 0:08:52.719 ahead and say that, I mean, that's ridiculous. So but 0:08:52.840 --> 0:08:55.200 for the people that did put everything together for a 0:08:55.200 --> 0:08:57.960 short week, we appreciate it. The players handling themselves great, 0:08:58.360 --> 0:09:00.000 we just gotta play better football and win the game 0:09:00.160 --> 0:09:01.559 next time. Yeah, but you knew that was going to 0:09:01.640 --> 0:09:03.240 be you know, it was kind of the humming theme 0:09:03.280 --> 0:09:05.800 over the course of the week anyway. Yeah, Yeah, it's 0:09:05.800 --> 0:09:07.360 a well that that's I mean, we were not like 0:09:07.400 --> 0:09:10.320 teams having done before. Let me just make it real clear. 0:09:10.400 --> 0:09:12.559 There's it's about fifty fifty right now. So I was 0:09:12.600 --> 0:09:14.880 here three years ago and we want to kick some tail, 0:09:14.920 --> 0:09:16.680 and we came out here on Thursday, and I didn't 0:09:16.679 --> 0:09:19.120 hear it once. All right, So the defense, you know, 0:09:19.160 --> 0:09:21.000 you know, Derek Carr is gonna get rid of it quickly. 0:09:21.120 --> 0:09:24.200 He doesn't get sacked much because high percentage accuracy throws 0:09:24.360 --> 0:09:27.640 and he's okay living with the short gains. But you know, 0:09:27.840 --> 0:09:29.960 it kind of helped obviously with the run game right away. 0:09:30.000 --> 0:09:32.240 But they had a ton of second in shorts. The 0:09:32.320 --> 0:09:35.080 challenges that poses for a defense. Then in those situations 0:09:35.080 --> 0:09:36.679 you kind of get back on your heels a little bit, 0:09:36.720 --> 0:09:39.400 don't you sure? It opens up the playbook on second down. 0:09:39.440 --> 0:09:40.720 There's a lot of things you can do, and then 0:09:40.760 --> 0:09:43.800 it makes it a really manageable third down. Um, when 0:09:43.800 --> 0:09:45.680 you make it second on one second and two, that 0:09:45.720 --> 0:09:48.600 means you're doing well on first down. And uh that 0:09:48.600 --> 0:09:51.640 that that's just something that's so so positive for a 0:09:51.640 --> 0:09:53.720 team when you have that. And they were doing that. 0:09:53.760 --> 0:09:55.600 They were they were getting first downs, they were they 0:09:55.640 --> 0:09:58.440 had ball control, and then they were producing when they 0:09:58.480 --> 0:10:01.480 got chances inside that five yard. Kim Hicks was able 0:10:01.480 --> 0:10:04.320 to come back from the sore knee play and then uh, 0:10:04.400 --> 0:10:06.200 well you saw the tape. I have not seen the 0:10:06.240 --> 0:10:09.280 play again. So he got pinned, his arm got pinned 0:10:09.280 --> 0:10:12.520 in you know, that was unfortunate. It is unfortunate. It's 0:10:12.559 --> 0:10:14.400 the word, you know, because he was playing with a 0:10:14.400 --> 0:10:16.240 lot of energy. It wasn't far into the game and 0:10:16.880 --> 0:10:18.520 got hit there on one of the tackles, got his 0:10:18.640 --> 0:10:21.320 arm caught. So, uh, you know, he's he's a warrior. 0:10:21.880 --> 0:10:23.679 We hope he's okay. We hope we can get him 0:10:23.720 --> 0:10:26.000 back and we wish him the best. This is something 0:10:26.040 --> 0:10:27.520 that you didn't have to deal with a lot of 0:10:27.600 --> 0:10:30.280 last year, these injuries of starting to a road a 0:10:30.280 --> 0:10:32.800 little bit. How do you put that in poper frame 0:10:32.920 --> 0:10:35.800 and get these guys through it? Yeah, you just have 0:10:35.880 --> 0:10:38.440 to you know, you have to trust in the next 0:10:38.440 --> 0:10:40.400 guy up. You have to trust in your trainers and 0:10:40.440 --> 0:10:42.160 trying to get guys back as soon as you can. 0:10:42.480 --> 0:10:44.160 You have to trust in the plan and knowing that 0:10:44.200 --> 0:10:46.520 every year is a little bit different and you can't 0:10:46.559 --> 0:10:49.000 be swayed one way or the other just because you said, oh, no, 0:10:49.080 --> 0:10:52.360 that it's a you know, everything's peachy just like last year. No, 0:10:52.520 --> 0:10:54.480 it's not last year anymore. We made that clear. This 0:10:54.559 --> 0:10:56.680 is a new year. There's gonna be different types of 0:10:56.720 --> 0:10:59.280 adversity and how are we going to handle it. Let's 0:10:59.320 --> 0:11:02.240 talk specialty teams too, because a couple of things. Cordell 0:11:02.280 --> 0:11:05.240 Patterson had a nice return, Tarik had the big one, 0:11:05.280 --> 0:11:08.280 and you know, I think, how was how was Tarik 0:11:08.360 --> 0:11:11.079 handling yet not having the uh you know, he's easily 0:11:11.160 --> 0:11:14.200 used to having big plays throughout the course of a game. 0:11:14.640 --> 0:11:17.160 That one must have felt good for him. But overall 0:11:17.160 --> 0:11:21.800 the special teams play Eddie Paniro and Patrick O'Donnell included. Yeah, 0:11:21.840 --> 0:11:24.840 that unit right now is playing as good as I've 0:11:24.840 --> 0:11:29.280 seen after you know, five five games, and uh so 0:11:29.400 --> 0:11:31.559 you you appreciate that there's been so you know, the 0:11:31.559 --> 0:11:34.160 fuel position part with with Pat with the punts and 0:11:34.200 --> 0:11:36.679 our our our players going down there and getting the 0:11:36.720 --> 0:11:39.319 ball you know inside the five, et cetera. You wish 0:11:39.320 --> 0:11:41.680 he had back the running into the kicker. You wish 0:11:41.720 --> 0:11:45.480 he had back to the fake punt um. But uh 0:11:45.640 --> 0:11:48.640 we we we understand that we have some really good players, 0:11:48.840 --> 0:11:51.160 guys that fight their tails off to to make plays 0:11:51.200 --> 0:11:53.240 and Coach Tabor's doing a really good job with them. 0:11:53.240 --> 0:11:54.959 You know, if this would have turned out differently, that 0:11:55.160 --> 0:11:58.560 ninety six yard flip of the field, that might have 0:11:58.600 --> 0:12:02.160 been something to really build on, coming from behind making 0:12:02.200 --> 0:12:04.160 that kind of play. They could be eleasy to score 0:12:04.160 --> 0:12:06.679 a touchdown there to take away the punch out by 0:12:06.679 --> 0:12:09.360 Sherrick being fortunate enough to have him on the field 0:12:09.400 --> 0:12:11.800 for that snap and him to do that, and then 0:12:11.920 --> 0:12:14.880 all the way the other end of it. That was 0:12:15.400 --> 0:12:17.960 very impressive turn of events right there. No, for sure, 0:12:17.960 --> 0:12:20.199 it's a great point you make, and we had the 0:12:20.480 --> 0:12:23.520 ball and basically the one foot yard line and Mats 0:12:23.600 --> 0:12:25.959 made a great third down play there, a great throw 0:12:26.000 --> 0:12:29.360 and catch by Allen Robinson on the sideline to move 0:12:29.400 --> 0:12:31.600 the sticks and get out of that backed up territory 0:12:31.880 --> 0:12:33.880 and then to be able to churn some first downs out, 0:12:34.200 --> 0:12:37.080 get to get to midfielders or to the plus forty 0:12:37.320 --> 0:12:39.360 and then pat made that that great punt and we 0:12:39.400 --> 0:12:41.000 did that. You know, we did we flipped the field. 0:12:41.040 --> 0:12:42.600 They had a big run on that very first down, 0:12:42.679 --> 0:12:45.040 they got out of there, and then uh, you know, 0:12:45.080 --> 0:12:46.839 we we ended up holding them to a third and 0:12:46.880 --> 0:12:49.560 eight and then unfortunately then then everything happened with the 0:12:49.640 --> 0:12:52.400 running end of the kicker. Yeah, back to Courdell Patterson. 0:12:52.800 --> 0:12:54.920 Did you know he was this good in coverage on 0:12:55.040 --> 0:12:57.520 special teams? Yeah, we knew, we knew he was good. 0:12:57.559 --> 0:12:59.040 I don't know if we knew he was this good. 0:12:59.160 --> 0:13:02.520 He's he's really That's a huge part of that of 0:13:02.559 --> 0:13:05.720 the special teams. And I think when you have a 0:13:05.720 --> 0:13:07.960 guy like that that has the speeds and speed and 0:13:08.040 --> 0:13:12.880 the size and the knowledge understanding angles, he can really 0:13:12.880 --> 0:13:17.320 help out.

Bears are taking the lead, coming back from 0:13:35.800 --> 0:13:39.679 seventeen down. They go up twenty to seventeen. Alan Robinson 0:13:39.720 --> 0:13:42.000 with a second of his touchdown catches as the Bears 0:13:42.360 --> 0:13:45.600 rally come from behind, go up and unable to finish 0:13:45.640 --> 0:13:48.520 the job in Oakland as they take down taken down 0:13:48.520 --> 0:13:50.480 by the Raiders. Twenty four, twenty one. Welcome back to 0:13:50.480 --> 0:13:54.080 the Bears Coaches Show, brought to you by Whippley Financial Advisors, 0:13:54.080 --> 0:13:56.240 a proud partner of the Chicago Bears. With Matt Maggie 0:13:56.240 --> 0:13:58.640 for one more segment, Let's talk about a rob because 0:13:59.400 --> 0:14:01.520 he made some time catches. Let's just call it what 0:14:01.559 --> 0:14:04.680 it is against some of those were terriffic throws too, 0:14:04.720 --> 0:14:07.400 but got getting the opportunity and he's consistently made those 0:14:07.440 --> 0:14:09.760 all year. I just love the fact that the way 0:14:10.240 --> 0:14:13.600 that Alan Robinson comes to practice every day, he shows 0:14:13.679 --> 0:14:16.600 up on game day and it's it's expected. You know, 0:14:16.760 --> 0:14:18.880 we always say when he's covered, he's not covered. And 0:14:18.960 --> 0:14:21.560 that was a pure example that yesterday made some big 0:14:21.600 --> 0:14:24.480 time plays at big time moments Chase was looking for 0:14:24.560 --> 0:14:26.560 him in those moments and then when he had a 0:14:26.600 --> 0:14:28.320 chance to do it, I mean, he took some big 0:14:28.360 --> 0:14:30.440 shots on a couple a couple of those catches, and 0:14:31.320 --> 0:14:35.320 but that's why he's here and our quarterbacks are really 0:14:35.360 --> 0:14:38.840 recognizing that. Speaking of quarterbacks, this will have a really 0:14:38.840 --> 0:14:40.760 good time for Mitch to get some more arrest and 0:14:40.800 --> 0:14:44.800 so forth. To any expectations post by no, I think 0:14:44.840 --> 0:14:47.720 just every day for him just to continue rehabing it. 0:14:47.840 --> 0:14:50.760 You know, it's it's it's a part of the game 0:14:50.800 --> 0:14:52.880 to get injured and see where he's at. But he's 0:14:52.960 --> 0:14:55.520 he's been doing good on a daily basis, I think mentally, 0:14:55.600 --> 0:14:57.880 just staying involved in it and seeing where we were 0:14:57.920 --> 0:15:00.480 at this past game. And but no, we want to 0:15:00.480 --> 0:15:02.320 get him back out here as soon as we can 0:15:02.400 --> 0:15:05.760 and continue to uh to try to get everything figured out. 0:15:05.960 --> 0:15:07.920 And the majority of those guys are they are they 0:15:07.960 --> 0:15:10.720 shots at least post by guys like Taylor Gabriel and 0:15:10.760 --> 0:15:14.120 Blow Nichols and so forth, I hope. So I feel 0:15:14.160 --> 0:15:17.880 like we're really close in regards to those injuries. Again 0:15:18.160 --> 0:15:20.600 that by that bye week can come at strange times, 0:15:20.760 --> 0:15:22.120 you know, you never know at the beginning of the 0:15:22.120 --> 0:15:24.280 season when and why it's coming. But now we kind 0:15:24.280 --> 0:15:25.960 of know why it's coming. It's for us to get 0:15:25.960 --> 0:15:29.240 healthy and use it that way. So we'll get we'll 0:15:29.280 --> 0:15:31.920 get our team hopefully back here and uh be back 0:15:31.960 --> 0:15:34.800 home for our next game in a couple of weeks 0:15:34.840 --> 0:15:37.120 against the Saints. And but but right now, we're going 0:15:37.200 --> 0:15:40.320 to use this time to to regroup mentally and physically 0:15:40.720 --> 0:15:42.520 and then get back to the grind. You're a very 0:15:42.520 --> 0:15:45.320 optimistic guy. You show that to your team. You also 0:15:45.520 --> 0:15:49.320 very direct with them too. Um, despite your optimistic view 0:15:49.360 --> 0:15:52.040 and everything, is there a concerns for you that really 0:15:52.360 --> 0:15:56.560 have your mind working right now? Well? You know, I 0:15:56.560 --> 0:15:58.920 don't know if if if it's the word concern, maybe 0:15:58.960 --> 0:16:01.960 it is. But what I try to start off with 0:16:02.120 --> 0:16:04.320 is saying, okay, here we are. We were just allowed 0:16:04.320 --> 0:16:07.200 to play five games, and after those five games we're 0:16:07.200 --> 0:16:10.120 three and two. So the world could be a lot 0:16:10.160 --> 0:16:13.680 worse than three and two. So let's start there. Now, 0:16:13.720 --> 0:16:16.120 after we get past that point, let's look at where 0:16:16.120 --> 0:16:18.960 we could be right and then why aren't we there? 0:16:19.280 --> 0:16:21.640 And once you do that, you see where that's at. 0:16:22.000 --> 0:16:24.560 Now you can see, Okay, are there any blind spots, 0:16:24.680 --> 0:16:27.560 things that we're missing, things that other people are seeing. 0:16:27.880 --> 0:16:30.520 How do we correct that? And then we talked about 0:16:30.520 --> 0:16:32.920 it the last couple of weeks. It's about solutions, it's 0:16:32.960 --> 0:16:38.000 about adaptations, it's about staying positive. There's an accountability, there's ownership. 0:16:38.040 --> 0:16:41.520 All these words fly around for us that we need 0:16:41.520 --> 0:16:45.720 to take to become a championship level team. It doesn't 0:16:45.720 --> 0:16:48.480 happen in six seven weeks. It happens over time. So 0:16:49.200 --> 0:16:51.400 when I do know we have a good football team 0:16:51.520 --> 0:16:54.360 and that that part is comfortable known, but now we 0:16:54.440 --> 0:16:56.680 got to become a great football team, and that's trying 0:16:56.680 --> 0:16:58.920 to figure out what those answers are. As the play 0:16:58.920 --> 0:17:05.040 of the offensive lines prized you well, so for our guys. 0:17:05.440 --> 0:17:07.200 You know, if you look at it, there's two phases 0:17:07.240 --> 0:17:08.760 that you have. You have the rung game and then 0:17:08.800 --> 0:17:11.480 you have the pass game in pass Pro and right now, 0:17:11.640 --> 0:17:14.840 for all the negativity that's going on in the frustration 0:17:14.880 --> 0:17:16.840 that there is within the rung game, which deals for 0:17:16.960 --> 0:17:18.919 there's a lot of different reasons I go behind it, 0:17:19.560 --> 0:17:21.760 but it always starts there. There's a frustration there with 0:17:21.880 --> 0:17:23.600 that that that's some answers that we got to get 0:17:24.040 --> 0:17:27.440 figured out. But with that said, in the pass game 0:17:27.560 --> 0:17:31.000 right now, they're protecting really really well and they're given, 0:17:31.400 --> 0:17:33.440 you know, Mitch and Chase a lot of time to throw, 0:17:33.920 --> 0:17:35.800 and I don't I want to make sure that that 0:17:35.840 --> 0:17:40.000 gets noticed. And as you move forward through this portion 0:17:40.040 --> 0:17:42.000 of the season as well, can you. I mean, I 0:17:42.480 --> 0:17:44.560 know every season's different, but you are in the exact 0:17:44.600 --> 0:17:47.280 same scenario as we talked about in the postgame show 0:17:47.640 --> 0:17:50.800 after five games three and two, coming off a really 0:17:50.840 --> 0:17:54.080 tough one at Miami on the road. We probably feel 0:17:54.080 --> 0:17:56.560 you should have had that one too. It's a real 0:17:56.640 --> 0:18:00.560 weird situation, isn't it That it's almost identical. It's very Yeah, 0:18:00.560 --> 0:18:03.399 it's a good point that that that's a good analogy 0:18:03.440 --> 0:18:05.719 that last year you kind of felt the same feeling 0:18:05.840 --> 0:18:09.960 after this game. Uh and so uh we you saw 0:18:09.960 --> 0:18:12.359 what happened last year is is our our guys they 0:18:12.480 --> 0:18:14.919 rallied behind each other, and they rally behind one another, 0:18:15.040 --> 0:18:17.440 and that's why they play sixteen games and and the 0:18:17.640 --> 0:18:22.080 playoffs don't start after eight, they start after sixteen. So, um, 0:18:22.119 --> 0:18:24.920 I have ultimate trust in our guys and knowing that 0:18:25.000 --> 0:18:27.600 they'll rally. I believe in them, they believe in us, 0:18:27.880 --> 0:18:31.320 and sometimes you go through these uh, these difficult losses. Uh, 0:18:31.359 --> 0:18:34.600 they sting, but you we've shown before that we've used 0:18:34.600 --> 0:18:36.960 these type of games to make us better. And are 0:18:37.000 --> 0:18:39.480
