Everybody from PNC Studio 0:00:32.680 --> 0:00:36.160 at hattisall. It's time for another edition of Bears All Access, 0:00:36.159 --> 0:00:38.360 brought to you by IGS Energy. With Tom there, I'm 0:00:38.400 --> 0:00:41.600 Jeff Johnniac, and we will be joined by Prince Amukamara, 0:00:41.600 --> 0:00:44.440 the veteran cornerback for the Chicago Bears. Time I want 0:00:44.479 --> 0:00:48.440 to start right into today's news conferences as the Bears 0:00:48.440 --> 0:00:51.400 try and put the Green Bay game in the rearview mirror. 0:00:51.440 --> 0:00:54.800 I thought Mitch Trobiscuit the Mike was outstanding, getting into 0:00:55.080 --> 0:00:59.360 a lot of detail about his thoughts about particular game 0:00:59.440 --> 0:01:02.960 situation which really define a quarterback, what you're doing in 0:01:03.000 --> 0:01:05.240 the red zone, what you're doing in the two minute offense, 0:01:05.800 --> 0:01:08.880 and was very transparent about what was going through his 0:01:08.920 --> 0:01:10.200 head and how he'd like to see a change in 0:01:10.200 --> 0:01:11.640 the future, what do you think about it? You know, 0:01:11.720 --> 0:01:13.920 Mitch's kind of Mitch and Matt Maggie both are kind 0:01:13.920 --> 0:01:16.240 of like an artist, because when you have a team, 0:01:16.280 --> 0:01:19.000 it's just like one big blab of clay. And then 0:01:19.319 --> 0:01:21.600 after you get to the chance to experience it through 0:01:21.600 --> 0:01:24.920 OTAs and preseason, then you start molding it a little bit. 0:01:25.280 --> 0:01:27.800 But then when you get into the real action of 0:01:27.840 --> 0:01:31.280 the regular season, now you start molding that thing into 0:01:31.280 --> 0:01:33.640 whatever structure you're going to make out of it. And 0:01:33.720 --> 0:01:37.440 so when Mitch goes back and evaluates the tape critically, 0:01:38.160 --> 0:01:41.440 real seriously, with his teammates as coaches and his peers, 0:01:41.680 --> 0:01:44.280 then you start understanding the things, Okay, I didn't need 0:01:44.319 --> 0:01:46.640 to hurry this up, or man, I should have seen 0:01:46.680 --> 0:01:49.400 this downfield. So it's all those types of things, you know, 0:01:49.440 --> 0:01:52.240 when Mitch said today at the podium and probably trying 0:01:52.280 --> 0:01:55.160 to make the point the whole time, Mitch's improvement is 0:01:55.200 --> 0:01:58.640 going to be a constant. He's never gonna get there 0:01:58.040 --> 0:02:00.720 and then and then oh it's all over, I'm at 0:02:00.760 --> 0:02:03.240 the top or else you know, he's so, I mean, 0:02:03.280 --> 0:02:07.200 that's that's I'm glad mitche realizes that the importance of 0:02:07.440 --> 0:02:09.400 the continuous work and effort he's got to put in. 0:02:09.520 --> 0:02:11.520 As an offensive lineman, you need to see the game 0:02:11.560 --> 0:02:13.760 through the same eyes as a quarterback does, and you 0:02:13.800 --> 0:02:16.480 did for all your years as a guard with the Bears. 0:02:16.840 --> 0:02:19.640 Did you, after watching tape see the game as he 0:02:19.720 --> 0:02:23.440 described it today? Yes, I think. You know, going into 0:02:23.440 --> 0:02:25.680 the first game, your first experience, there's a little bit 0:02:25.680 --> 0:02:28.240 of over anxiousness and maybe you're trying to think too 0:02:28.280 --> 0:02:31.560 fast and all those things that you fall You'll eventually 0:02:31.560 --> 0:02:34.040 you'll fall into the tempo and fall into the rhythm 0:02:34.080 --> 0:02:36.400 of the offense of the game. Those things will start 0:02:36.400 --> 0:02:38.519 to slow down. Because everybody wants to call it his 0:02:38.639 --> 0:02:41.760 second season, which it is, but it's still his first season, 0:02:42.160 --> 0:02:44.920 first season within this system. You know, you want to 0:02:44.919 --> 0:02:46.960 go up and have all these glowing or remarks about 0:02:47.040 --> 0:02:50.040 Mahomes in Kansas City. This is his second year in 0:02:50.080 --> 0:02:53.000 the same system. So it's it's hard to have the 0:02:53.040 --> 0:02:58.240 comparison because Mitch has already forgot which Mahomes is double learning. Yeah, 0:02:58.360 --> 0:03:01.680 and that's common though, that is and that the analysis 0:03:01.720 --> 0:03:04.920 he is immediate. And there was a great question asked 0:03:04.960 --> 0:03:08.320 today and Mitch acknowledging too. You know, it's it's a 0:03:08.440 --> 0:03:13.400 sport at a position where you're defined, this is who 0:03:13.400 --> 0:03:16.040 we are for the rest of your career on this game. 0:03:16.400 --> 0:03:18.680 Next game you're defined a different way, and the next, 0:03:18.760 --> 0:03:20.720 and this will go on for the next fifteen years 0:03:20.720 --> 0:03:25.000 of the man's life, right, you know. Unfortunately, unfortunately, fortunately, 0:03:25.040 --> 0:03:27.280 that's the benefits of playing the quarterback position. What did 0:03:27.280 --> 0:03:29.160 he say as soon as he walked off the stage 0:03:29.200 --> 0:03:31.000 at the end of his press conference, He goes, I 0:03:31.080 --> 0:03:33.800 have the greatest job in the world. So that is 0:03:33.840 --> 0:03:37.840 the reflection of the respect Mitch has for his opportunity, 0:03:38.000 --> 0:03:41.720 and he also realizes the improvement he has to make 0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:45.560 in what we as fans expect from him because he's 0:03:45.600 --> 0:03:49.800 already set the buy the bar high. He's a good athlete, 0:03:49.840 --> 0:03:54.080 he's dedicated, he's really he's got accuracy, he can throw 0:03:54.120 --> 0:03:55.680 on the move. So all the traits that you need 0:03:55.720 --> 0:03:58.080 to see out of a quarterback, he's displayed them all. 0:03:58.320 --> 0:04:02.360 Third and goal three, hard line, sixteen seconds ago, first quarter. 0:04:02.600 --> 0:04:04.720 The still shot, you've seen it because you've been hitting 0:04:04.760 --> 0:04:07.320 the mobile unit pretty good there this phone. You're finding 0:04:07.320 --> 0:04:08.960 out a lot of stuff these days. You're starting to 0:04:09.000 --> 0:04:13.480 come into the century. So yeah, still shot at Trey 0:04:13.520 --> 0:04:16.120 Burton back there appears to be wide open, right and 0:04:16.160 --> 0:04:20.480 it's still shot. And he explained it perfectly today. His 0:04:20.560 --> 0:04:22.960 first check was Turiko and his first read. Then he 0:04:22.960 --> 0:04:24.880 goes to the check down, takes the five yeard, get 0:04:24.880 --> 0:04:28.280 the points, tend nothing first quarter. He says, that's a win. 0:04:29.080 --> 0:04:31.000 But as you look at it, as he moves forward, 0:04:31.000 --> 0:04:33.600 he wants to be the quarterback that will at the 0:04:33.600 --> 0:04:35.880 first glimpse, boom, when you're not having to think about it, 0:04:35.920 --> 0:04:38.720 throw that pass. What he will, but he will, he will. 0:04:38.800 --> 0:04:40.520 That's the way he's going to develop. But that's not 0:04:40.600 --> 0:04:43.400 a first glimpse read to Trey Burton. The first glimpse 0:04:43.520 --> 0:04:45.440 is to treat and then he was covered immediately in 0:04:45.480 --> 0:04:48.320 the flat. And then when he looked backside Taylor Gabriel, 0:04:48.400 --> 0:04:50.320 he thought that was his name. So now you're talking 0:04:50.360 --> 0:04:54.320 about maybe three three seconds into the course of the play, 0:04:54.400 --> 0:04:56.600 so it's not immediate throw it. You know, there's a 0:04:56.600 --> 0:04:59.640 lot of evaluation. You're you're avoiding the rush, you go 0:04:59.680 --> 0:05:02.720 to the the scrimmage, understand the protection and understand where 0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:05.560 your vulnerabilities lie. So there's a lot more thinking into 0:05:05.600 --> 0:05:08.640 it than pass hunting kid. Absolutely pleased to be joined 0:05:08.640 --> 0:05:11.480 now by the veteran cornerback of the Chicago Bears, fresh 0:05:11.520 --> 0:05:15.000 off the practice field and a shower, Prince Samukamara joining us. 0:05:15.000 --> 0:05:17.000 How are you doing, my friend? Are you sure I showered? 0:05:17.520 --> 0:05:21.000 That's what I was told. Anyway, it wouldn't matter if 0:05:21.000 --> 0:05:23.159 you did or didn't. You know, it's football season. You 0:05:23.200 --> 0:05:25.360 do what you can, right, right? Do you do whatever 0:05:25.440 --> 0:05:27.640 you have to do to get ready? Jay Hilligberg once said, 0:05:27.640 --> 0:05:29.919 the greatest thing about the job as an NFL football 0:05:29.960 --> 0:05:32.200 players you don't have to shower on your way to work, 0:05:32.880 --> 0:05:36.640 and you know you always have fresh clothes hanging in there. Right. Yeah, Well, 0:05:36.800 --> 0:05:38.400 thank you for digging the time, Thank you for taking 0:05:38.440 --> 0:05:40.640 the time. You get a little extra prep work for 0:05:40.680 --> 0:05:43.080 the Seattle Seahawks. It's been a head spinner this whole 0:05:43.120 --> 0:05:46.320 preseason and leading into the first game, and it's almost 0:05:46.400 --> 0:05:48.520 right now, a little chance to breathe a little bit 0:05:48.560 --> 0:05:51.200 with this extra preparation. I don't know if that's really 0:05:51.440 --> 0:05:53.359 the way it is for you as a football player, 0:05:53.400 --> 0:05:56.640 but after everything that's gone on, is it a little 0:05:56.640 --> 0:05:59.200 bit of a chance to take a deep breath? Yeah, 0:05:59.360 --> 0:06:05.000 especially with how um especially with how Sunday Sunday ended. Um. Yeah, 0:06:05.040 --> 0:06:08.039 that extra day helped us as a as a team. However, 0:06:08.440 --> 0:06:10.560 it's crazy because we got done Sunday and then we 0:06:10.560 --> 0:06:14.200 had Monday Tuesday UM off and then got back into 0:06:14.200 --> 0:06:17.039 a Wednesday. So that Monday Tuesday, I'm sure guys watched 0:06:17.040 --> 0:06:18.960 the film forgot about it, but he still had to 0:06:18.960 --> 0:06:22.800 watch it with the UM with with with our coaches 0:06:22.880 --> 0:06:28.240 and and where our thick skin uh costume and yeah man, 0:06:28.400 --> 0:06:34.559 so uh coach uh coach Naki went went through UM 0:06:34.600 --> 0:06:38.480 just uh offense and defense as a team with with 0:06:38.560 --> 0:06:40.440 like UM maybe the I don't know if the owners 0:06:40.440 --> 0:06:42.039 were in there, but I know everybody was in there, 0:06:42.080 --> 0:06:44.160 like gems and stuff like that. And he prepared us 0:06:44.160 --> 0:06:47.080 and just say, hey, we're just like sharpening each other 0:06:47.240 --> 0:06:50.960 and UM, I wouldn't say guys got called out, but 0:06:51.080 --> 0:06:53.919 it was. But he was just pointing, pointing plays and 0:06:54.000 --> 0:06:56.840 just going going through the ebbs and flows of of 0:06:56.839 --> 0:06:59.800 of how the game win and guys, guys received it well. 0:06:59.839 --> 0:07:04.279 And you can tell how how guys are attacking UM 0:07:04.880 --> 0:07:07.480 practice practice this week just with a little bit more 0:07:08.080 --> 0:07:10.640 like UM, a little bit more, just doing a little 0:07:10.640 --> 0:07:12.800 bit more and everything, whether it's finishing, whether it's more 0:07:12.880 --> 0:07:15.960 after Um, we just know across the team, guys just 0:07:15.960 --> 0:07:17.600 want to get that bad taste out of our mouth. 0:07:17.680 --> 0:07:20.520 This is one thing that Tom for the twenty two 0:07:20.600 --> 0:07:22.679 years that I've known him in this position, he talks 0:07:22.720 --> 0:07:25.760 about that meeting where you have to have and he's 0:07:26.160 --> 0:07:28.720 well read it. And I don't know if I always 0:07:28.720 --> 0:07:31.200 been that way. Well, you know what, It develops camaraderie 0:07:31.280 --> 0:07:33.560 first of all, because you're challenge in front of your peers, 0:07:33.560 --> 0:07:36.080 and when you talk about having thick skin, you got 0:07:36.080 --> 0:07:38.679 to be able to take constructive criticism from the coach. 0:07:38.920 --> 0:07:41.640 And then you know, as an offensive linement, I could anticipate, 0:07:41.720 --> 0:07:44.080 I'll I gave up a sack or tackle for a loss. 0:07:44.120 --> 0:07:45.440 I look at the guy next to me. Again, you 0:07:45.440 --> 0:07:48.000 gotta stick with me, come on five, you know. Just so. 0:07:48.960 --> 0:07:51.080 But again, that's the way that you build the team 0:07:51.120 --> 0:07:53.240 that ultimately you're going to have at the end of 0:07:53.280 --> 0:07:56.760 this whole journey that you're you're just starting. Exactly. No, 0:07:56.920 --> 0:08:00.240 I completely agree with you, Tom, And it's more like, um, 0:08:00.480 --> 0:08:02.520 there's a singing in football. I'm sure not film like, 0:08:02.560 --> 0:08:04.760 it's never as good it is, and it's never as 0:08:04.800 --> 0:08:08.040 bad as it is on film, So it just to 0:08:08.120 --> 0:08:11.240 remain neutral and um and just keep pushing. It is 0:08:11.280 --> 0:08:12.880 hard to have a twenty four hour rold when you 0:08:12.880 --> 0:08:14.920 had forty eight hours and now you're gonna dig back again. 0:08:15.320 --> 0:08:18.720 And here it is the first day this because today 0:08:18.920 --> 0:08:21.960 is really a Wednesday in the football world of Monday 0:08:21.960 --> 0:08:23.840 through Sunday. But because of the Monday night or so, 0:08:24.080 --> 0:08:27.200 you're still getting questions about what happened in that game. 0:08:27.640 --> 0:08:30.800 Is that a challenge for a player because you are 0:08:30.880 --> 0:08:33.480 trying to set your mind right and you know, the 0:08:33.559 --> 0:08:36.200 media has its obligations. Totally get it, You get it too, 0:08:36.240 --> 0:08:38.200 but it is hard to keep going back when you 0:08:38.240 --> 0:08:41.000 just want to just go forward. Yeah, I mean again, 0:08:41.040 --> 0:08:44.960 I agree with you. It's just more about like that game, 0:08:45.120 --> 0:08:49.000 like all just all the emotions from even from sitting 0:08:49.040 --> 0:08:55.679 down with um, with Missus McCaskey and just knowing everything 0:08:55.720 --> 0:08:58.319 that just went into that game. It's just like boom, 0:08:58.400 --> 0:09:01.600 like you just pop popped the bo loon and um 0:09:01.880 --> 0:09:04.760 just kind of really, um, I'm sure just deflated like 0:09:04.960 --> 0:09:08.400 this whole this whole organization just for just for that night. 0:09:08.840 --> 0:09:12.079 But now, UM, I think everyone has that short term 0:09:12.080 --> 0:09:14.760 memories like all right onto Seattle, like where you know 0:09:14.800 --> 0:09:16.880 they're going to start with the T formation on the 0:09:16.920 --> 0:09:19.360 offensive side. No, and I and I and I didn't 0:09:19.400 --> 0:09:22.160 get I didn't get it until I mean I saw 0:09:22.240 --> 0:09:25.520 on social media on Twitter, um like it was in 0:09:25.720 --> 0:09:28.880 I think in an honor of how this and stuff 0:09:28.920 --> 0:09:31.559 like that. I thought, eighteen forties, it's pretty cool. Yeah, 0:09:31.720 --> 0:09:34.120 nineteen forty one against the Washington Redskins. They opened I 0:09:34.120 --> 0:09:36.800 think they beat him seventy three to nothing that at 0:09:36.800 --> 0:09:39.079 that time. And I just you know, it's the respect 0:09:39.080 --> 0:09:41.200 that you have. You think of Virginia McCaskey sitting in 0:09:41.240 --> 0:09:44.400 the stands and probably the only person to see the 0:09:44.440 --> 0:09:47.720 inception of that idea, that idea run and then you know, 0:09:48.800 --> 0:09:51.839 play still work. Yea seven yards, I'll take seven yards. 0:09:52.600 --> 0:09:54.520 But I hope they use it more and more. And 0:09:54.640 --> 0:09:57.079 you know what, no one met and knowing how these 0:09:57.080 --> 0:10:00.800 offensive coordinators are on these offensive coaches, they'll they'll come 0:10:00.920 --> 0:10:04.559 up with different offshoots from that play and make defense 0:10:04.720 --> 0:10:07.200 is prepare for it, like they have to, right, you 0:10:07.240 --> 0:10:09.400 have to prepare you just because they showed it. Yeah, 0:10:09.440 --> 0:10:11.320 we have to. Well, I you know, I would like 0:10:11.400 --> 0:10:13.680 to talk to Prince a little bit more about it 0:10:13.760 --> 0:10:16.760 after the commercial, just about his defensive thinking.

Prince 0:10:45.240 --> 0:10:47.640 and Mukamara kind enough to spend some time with us 0:10:47.640 --> 0:10:50.440 here on Bears All Access with Tom there, Jeff jonahak time. 0:10:50.480 --> 0:10:52.760 You want to pick up the T formation play that 0:10:52.880 --> 0:10:55.160 started the game against the Packers gained seven yards, right, 0:10:55.600 --> 0:10:57.600 you mentioned gain seven yards, So it's not a play 0:10:57.640 --> 0:10:59.920 that you shelf and never bring out again. But Prince, 0:11:00.120 --> 0:11:01.600 now when you're on the other side of the ball. 0:11:01.640 --> 0:11:03.760 Now you're looking at a backfield that you don't have 0:11:03.880 --> 0:11:07.360 great familiarity with. What do you think what are you 0:11:07.400 --> 0:11:10.400 thinking defensively? So I'm just thinking, okay, there's three backs 0:11:10.400 --> 0:11:12.960 in the backfield. I'm thinking, of course there can be 0:11:13.000 --> 0:11:16.319 some type of toss or direct run. But I'm also thinking, okay, 0:11:16.480 --> 0:11:18.160 he has three guys in a back for there's also 0:11:18.240 --> 0:11:22.760 Max protect, maybe deep some type of deep developing routes. 0:11:22.840 --> 0:11:25.520 So when it's stuff like that or something we haven't seen, 0:11:25.559 --> 0:11:28.600 it's just like, okay, let's when in doubt bellot out, 0:11:28.640 --> 0:11:31.240 like stay stay deep, let it, let it clear out, 0:11:31.280 --> 0:11:34.840 and then and then react after. Okay. So now for 0:11:34.920 --> 0:11:37.520 the fans of us getting ready for Game two, you 0:11:37.559 --> 0:11:40.480 know you have the guys like um, big band, you 0:11:40.559 --> 0:11:42.839 got Marino and even Rogers for some case kind of 0:11:42.920 --> 0:11:45.760 more stationary quarterbacks. Now you're bringing a Russell Wilson. They 0:11:45.800 --> 0:11:49.120 got Dak Prescott, they got a slew of creative quarterbacks 0:11:49.160 --> 0:11:51.440 in the NFL. Does this change your game at all 0:11:51.720 --> 0:11:54.680 when you have more of a stationary quarterback as opposed 0:11:54.720 --> 0:11:58.000 to a Russell Wilson type. Um, the only way it 0:11:58.080 --> 0:12:00.440 changes in my game. And just have to be ready 0:12:00.480 --> 0:12:02.400 for I just have to be well conditioned, just because 0:12:02.400 --> 0:12:05.520 I know Russell's gonna extend the plays I mean similar 0:12:05.520 --> 0:12:08.440 to to Um, the guy we played last week. I 0:12:08.480 --> 0:12:11.000 just don't even want to mention. I just know that 0:12:11.000 --> 0:12:14.319 that their quarterbacks like that are gonna extend the plays. 0:12:14.360 --> 0:12:17.200 So I just have to we called a plaster where 0:12:17.240 --> 0:12:19.720 you get close to your guy, or get close to 0:12:19.840 --> 0:12:22.680 any guy if you're in zone, just because when the 0:12:22.720 --> 0:12:26.600 quarterback starts scrambling, it's like basketball, guys can go any 0:12:26.760 --> 0:12:31.080 any anyway. Aaron Rodgers, Let's just say that that second 0:12:31.080 --> 0:12:35.520 half the frustration level of a defense. If we're watching it, 0:12:35.600 --> 0:12:37.960 I'm frustrated. I can't imagine what it's like for you guys, 0:12:38.000 --> 0:12:41.199 because you gotta stay patient and you gotta you gotta 0:12:41.240 --> 0:12:43.840 be there to make the big play. Um, what is 0:12:43.880 --> 0:12:46.320 going on after a first half? For it was complete 0:12:46.400 --> 0:12:49.760 the domination and you pressured him to have then having 0:12:49.840 --> 0:12:54.360 him sit there and just pick away. Yeah, I mean 0:12:54.400 --> 0:12:56.880 so so the first half is just like wow, like 0:12:57.000 --> 0:12:59.800 we like we really we really punched him in the mouth. 0:12:59.840 --> 0:13:01.520 I'm even when Aaron was in, we punched them in 0:13:01.559 --> 0:13:04.080 the mouth. And then even when they didn't start moving 0:13:04.080 --> 0:13:06.200 the ball until Kaiser got it. When Kaiser got in, 0:13:06.320 --> 0:13:08.560 then they started moving the ball. But then you see 0:13:08.760 --> 0:13:12.240 um Khalil ended that with a sack a sack fumble 0:13:12.280 --> 0:13:14.719 or shack strip and then turn over run down and 0:13:14.760 --> 0:13:17.720 then um. And then when we go to halftime, UM, 0:13:17.840 --> 0:13:21.320 guys were of course um filling themselves excited, but guys 0:13:21.320 --> 0:13:23.440 were still echoing like, hey, like this is four quarters. 0:13:23.440 --> 0:13:25.720 We haven't did anything yet, so guys knew like we 0:13:25.760 --> 0:13:27.720 had to bring it back the second half. The second 0:13:27.720 --> 0:13:30.520 half came, we weren't sure if Aaron was gonna play 0:13:30.600 --> 0:13:32.240 or not, and they ended up he ended up playing, 0:13:32.360 --> 0:13:34.800 and then um, and then they started getting some up 0:13:34.840 --> 0:13:37.920 temple stuff. They started moving and then UM. And then 0:13:37.960 --> 0:13:40.520 when they had the first score, UM, I think I 0:13:40.520 --> 0:13:42.240 think that was on Kyle. They had the first score, 0:13:42.280 --> 0:13:44.800 then it's like okay, they got some momentum and then 0:13:45.120 --> 0:13:47.960 UM and then I come back in from a head 0:13:48.080 --> 0:13:50.360 with a head hit and then and then they have 0:13:50.600 --> 0:13:52.280 and then they have the long play on me and 0:13:52.360 --> 0:13:55.599 then they have the second score. Then it's like like 0:13:55.760 --> 0:13:57.839 it's almost like Ben don't break. It's like okay, like 0:13:58.120 --> 0:14:01.480 like let's get like let's have some and then UM. 0:14:01.880 --> 0:14:03.840 It just felt like once once we stopped bleeding, once 0:14:03.880 --> 0:14:06.719 we started bleeding, we couldn't we couldn't stop in and 0:14:06.800 --> 0:14:08.080 stuff like that, and I'm just thinking, like, man, if 0:14:08.080 --> 0:14:10.840 we just held them, because because as we were watching film, 0:14:11.520 --> 0:14:14.080 I'm thinking like, Okay, man, it was really like five 0:14:14.120 --> 0:14:15.920 minutes in the third quarter and it was like twenty 0:14:15.920 --> 0:14:19.840 to three or twenty three. You mentioned that you were surprised. Yeah, 0:14:19.840 --> 0:14:22.200 I just couldn't. I just couldn't believe. I just couldn't 0:14:22.480 --> 0:14:25.960 believe it. And then um and yeah, like we just 0:14:26.000 --> 0:14:29.360 couldn't stopped to stop the bleeding, and um, and they 0:14:29.640 --> 0:14:31.600 just had they just had the momentum and they and 0:14:31.680 --> 0:14:33.360 they just went with it. So I mean, you gotta 0:14:33.360 --> 0:14:35.360 tip your hats to them for not taking it and 0:14:35.520 --> 0:14:38.360 for not and for not giving up. You know, I 0:14:38.480 --> 0:14:40.760 think when you have that saying, desperate times call for 0:14:40.840 --> 0:14:42.760 desperate measures. When he came out of the locker room 0:14:42.760 --> 0:14:44.320 at half time, I think he kind of threw the 0:14:44.400 --> 0:14:46.480 game plan out the window and said, all, Okay, I'm 0:14:46.480 --> 0:14:48.360 gonna get the ball out of my hands like Aaron 0:14:48.480 --> 0:14:51.160 Rodgers nose he can. So I think that kind of 0:14:51.280 --> 0:14:53.320 changed the whole tempo of the game a little bit. 0:14:53.720 --> 0:14:57.280 You're a little bit more necessity to protect myself than 0:14:57.360 --> 0:15:00.280 actually doing the device game plan that MacArthur he put 0:15:00.280 --> 0:15:02.480 out there, right, I agree, because he was if you 0:15:02.800 --> 0:15:05.080 if you saw, if you watch him, he didn't really 0:15:05.120 --> 0:15:07.680 put that much weight on that on on that foot. 0:15:07.760 --> 0:15:10.440 So it was just quick dank and dunk and then 0:15:10.560 --> 0:15:14.040 the um and then the line did a great job 0:15:14.720 --> 0:15:18.360 um with with protecting him. And yeah, I mean and 0:15:18.480 --> 0:15:20.080 I mean and there and there was a time when 0:15:20.640 --> 0:15:23.120 they were they were probably we call it the maroons 0:15:23.160 --> 0:15:25.840 on maybe like the thirty yard going in and it 0:15:26.000 --> 0:15:28.080 was we had a great third down and he was. 0:15:28.280 --> 0:15:30.880 I seen him arguing with McCarthy like, hey, like keep 0:15:30.920 --> 0:15:32.880 them back, keep the field goal team back. I want 0:15:32.920 --> 0:15:34.840 to go. McCarthy's like, no, get out, like get him 0:15:34.880 --> 0:15:37.000 out and stuff like that. I'm like, man, like, this 0:15:37.160 --> 0:15:39.120 is not a good sign. This guy feels this. He 0:15:39.320 --> 0:15:42.960 was confident because he did he in his mind. This 0:15:43.040 --> 0:15:45.680 is reminded me a little bit. Not certainly it's Week 0:15:45.760 --> 0:15:48.240 one versus a super Bowl, but when I'm sitting there 0:15:48.320 --> 0:15:51.280 while I'm at the Super Bowl and Atlanta giving away 0:15:51.720 --> 0:15:56.080 its lead and Tom on that day, every single thing 0:15:56.240 --> 0:15:59.840 that happened had to happen, how it happened for that 0:16:00.160 --> 0:16:02.240 to even have a chance to win the game. And 0:16:02.520 --> 0:16:04.440 I believe the same thing happened in this case. It 0:16:04.600 --> 0:16:07.160 had to happen that way if he if he settles 0:16:07.200 --> 0:16:09.400 for a field goal or another field no, there's no 0:16:09.560 --> 0:16:14.880 chance or the Bears are one one, one snap makes 0:16:14.920 --> 0:16:18.040 a difference in that game. Right, that's probably the most 0:16:18.400 --> 0:16:23.000 difficult aspect to swallow, right, right, in any phase. Right. Yeah, No, 0:16:23.080 --> 0:16:26.040 I couldn't agree with you more. You know, um, just 0:16:26.160 --> 0:16:29.000 going back to the preseason a little bit, because there's 0:16:29.000 --> 0:16:31.239 a lot of a little bit of talk about interceptions 0:16:31.320 --> 0:16:33.840 this year, and and I it's neat to be talked 0:16:33.840 --> 0:16:35.880 about because it's something that's going to happen. And so 0:16:36.120 --> 0:16:39.360 you started the conversation the preseason. Then we then Clail 0:16:39.400 --> 0:16:42.120 Mac comes here. Does that number in your head go up? 0:16:42.800 --> 0:16:46.120 Or I still got that same number set in your head? Um, 0:16:46.560 --> 0:16:49.840 I mean yeah, of course I think I still have that. 0:16:49.880 --> 0:16:51.440 I mean, I'm gonna have that same number every year 0:16:51.680 --> 0:16:53.880 until until I get as long as I mean, as 0:16:53.880 --> 0:16:56.120 long as I'm playing. And yeah, I said a joke 0:16:56.200 --> 0:16:58.560 like when he when we when I found that we 0:16:58.720 --> 0:17:00.520 we signed him, I was like, yeah, that is looking 0:17:00.640 --> 0:17:04.359 a little bit more uh, prom promising now And stuff. 0:17:04.400 --> 0:17:08.879 But yeah, I mean it's no, it's no surprise, the dynamic, 0:17:09.000 --> 0:17:13.320 the type of um energy that he just brings brings 0:17:13.400 --> 0:17:16.400 to our team. I mean I've always watched I've actually honest, 0:17:16.440 --> 0:17:18.720 I never really I never really watched him. I just know, 0:17:19.040 --> 0:17:21.199 I know it acculates. I know he was defensive player year. 0:17:21.200 --> 0:17:23.199 I know he's an All Pro in a pro bowler, 0:17:23.480 --> 0:17:26.880 and I never really watched him. But I mean that well, 0:17:26.920 --> 0:17:29.040 you know, it's kind of like Von Miller and Khalil. 0:17:29.080 --> 0:17:31.680 They're over on the West Coast. You know, the first 0:17:31.720 --> 0:17:33.480 time I sat there and watched one on ones with 0:17:33.600 --> 0:17:35.320 Von Miller a couple of weeks ago and Denver, I 0:17:35.400 --> 0:17:37.640 was going, oh my god, this this guy is shot 0:17:37.680 --> 0:17:40.160 out of a can. And there's a lot of similarities 0:17:40.200 --> 0:17:42.439 between the two. So now we are going to learn 0:17:42.520 --> 0:17:45.000 a lot more about Khalil in the next few years 0:17:45.200 --> 0:17:48.320 with his situation here. But you know, he has a 0:17:48.400 --> 0:17:50.560 great teammate, a great guy to bring in the locker 0:17:50.680 --> 0:17:55.400 room when you're trying to construct construct a positive atmosphere there. Yeah, 0:17:55.520 --> 0:18:00.119 it's crazy how how fitting he was um to, I 0:18:00.200 --> 0:18:02.239 mean crazy, how grave a fit he was when when 0:18:02.280 --> 0:18:04.520 he came here, because I know pace and and and 0:18:04.680 --> 0:18:09.080 management there's they're so huge on just having great guys 0:18:09.560 --> 0:18:12.280 and stuff like that. So the fact that Matt came in, 0:18:12.960 --> 0:18:15.720 um and just molded right in and got along with 0:18:15.800 --> 0:18:19.639 our personalities and and really bought into the culture so fast. Um, 0:18:19.760 --> 0:18:22.280 I think that's that helps our team out alive. Prince mcamara, 0:18:22.280 --> 0:18:24.440 our guest here on Bears All Access pause rank or 0:18:24.440 --> 0:18:26.800 engineer Dan Barelli helping us out here as well as 0:18:26.840 --> 0:18:30.760 Brandon McCarty as the show moves on. Here, Prince, you're 0:18:30.840 --> 0:18:34.200 you're hitting the nail right on the head because you 0:18:34.359 --> 0:18:36.440 don't know when you got a guy who just became 0:18:36.520 --> 0:18:39.520 the richest defensive player in NFL history in terms of 0:18:39.560 --> 0:18:42.240 a contract, you don't know really what you're getting unless 0:18:42.240 --> 0:18:46.080 you're here through the grapevine, right all the grapevine, My grapevine. 0:18:46.119 --> 0:18:49.119 Time's grape fine. He's a fun loving guy, he's pretty humble, 0:18:49.560 --> 0:18:52.120 and you know he's a he's a nasty football player. 0:18:52.840 --> 0:18:55.760 That's all you need to know. And that must be 0:18:55.880 --> 0:18:59.239 comforting because this is an alpha business and there are 0:18:59.520 --> 0:19:01.359 a lot of guys want to be Alpha's not everybody 0:19:01.440 --> 0:19:03.480 can be in alpha, and some guys do it with 0:19:03.560 --> 0:19:06.240 a big, big voice. Others do it by their play, 0:19:06.280 --> 0:19:08.399 and I think he's the latter. He does it with 0:19:08.480 --> 0:19:11.040 his play. Get that you get that impression from him 0:19:11.040 --> 0:19:15.440 and there, Yeah, and now, I mean even before that game, 0:19:15.520 --> 0:19:18.119 he was being more vocal because and I remember watching 0:19:18.240 --> 0:19:21.520 him watching I've seen a picture of him on the 0:19:21.640 --> 0:19:23.560 Raiders team, he had a see on his on his 0:19:23.760 --> 0:19:26.920 chest and in the in the NFL or any team, 0:19:26.960 --> 0:19:29.080
