A wonderful 0:00:38.800 --> 0:00:43.560 Chicago style. I gotta say Chicago style. Season opening victory 0:00:43.560 --> 0:00:46.919 at Saggy Soldier Field yesterday met a nineteen ten over 0:00:46.960 --> 0:00:49.440 the visiting Niners. How did it feel in good evening? 0:00:49.479 --> 0:00:51.520 To you? It was it was great. You know, I've 0:00:51.520 --> 0:00:54.880 really enjoyed the moment, you know, after the game with 0:00:55.000 --> 0:00:58.480 the players, just you know, reflecting on out how hard 0:00:58.520 --> 0:01:00.840 they worked during the course of the week and how 0:01:00.840 --> 0:01:03.320 they performed during the game, and you know, it's a 0:01:03.360 --> 0:01:06.480 gritty performance and the guys just pulled tighter and tighter 0:01:06.520 --> 0:01:09.200 together as as the game went on. So and you know, 0:01:09.240 --> 0:01:12.479 it's a credit to the coaches and their preparation during 0:01:12.480 --> 0:01:14.560 the course of the week, and also you know their 0:01:14.600 --> 0:01:17.440 halftime adjustments, what they what they did and adjusted to 0:01:17.520 --> 0:01:19.560 the weather and adjusted to what we were seeing on 0:01:19.560 --> 0:01:22.680 the field. So just the hats off to the whole group. Yeah, 0:01:22.800 --> 0:01:25.520 Justin Fields remarked after the game in an interview. I so, 0:01:25.640 --> 0:01:27.360 I said, it felt like he was in a movie. 0:01:27.440 --> 0:01:29.080 I don't know if you've talked to him about this, 0:01:29.280 --> 0:01:31.560 but I could picture, you know, one of those football 0:01:31.640 --> 0:01:33.880 movies from high school and it's muddy and it's raining 0:01:33.880 --> 0:01:36.759 and whatnot. But the torrential rain of the fourth quarter 0:01:36.840 --> 0:01:39.399 certainly set that scene. But he played the part very 0:01:39.440 --> 0:01:42.360 well in that movie, didn't he, Yes, he did. He's 0:01:42.400 --> 0:01:45.440 a he's a special guy, you know, and uh, you 0:01:45.440 --> 0:01:48.840 could see he was. He was just unbelievable with him, 0:01:49.160 --> 0:01:51.880 you know, being able to extend plays and create things 0:01:51.920 --> 0:01:54.720 on his own when things break down, and uh, it 0:01:54.760 --> 0:01:57.800 was fun to watch. Also, you know the end of game, 0:01:58.240 --> 0:02:00.880 they slipping, slide whatever, however you want to describe it. 0:02:00.920 --> 0:02:04.600 A backyard kids having fun, but adult kids doing it 0:02:04.720 --> 0:02:07.720 this in this case. But that's a forever moment. Because 0:02:07.920 --> 0:02:10.079 I don't know if you've seen the still shot photos 0:02:10.080 --> 0:02:13.799 of it, they're plastered everywhere. That moment's never going away 0:02:14.000 --> 0:02:17.520 for you either your staff. That is a snapshot for 0:02:17.600 --> 0:02:19.880 their rest of their lives. Yeah, you know those things, 0:02:19.880 --> 0:02:22.520 those moments are just spontaneous. They this happened, you know, 0:02:22.560 --> 0:02:25.679 it's out of pure joy for winning the football game 0:02:25.760 --> 0:02:28.320 and in the elements and how fun it was for 0:02:28.360 --> 0:02:30.680 everybody to take part of that, and they just did it, 0:02:30.840 --> 0:02:32.240 and they all just said, Hey, we're gonna go do 0:02:32.280 --> 0:02:36.320 a slipping slide. It was fun to watch. And boy, 0:02:36.440 --> 0:02:40.760 Justin's was perfect. Man, you're talking about he was spread eagle, perfect, 0:02:41.000 --> 0:02:45.679 sliding all the way in there. Yes, a performer for sure. Well, 0:02:45.680 --> 0:02:48.720 the performance included nineteen non answered points in that second half, 0:02:48.960 --> 0:02:52.200 two touchdown passes, you had the Cutel Herbert touchdown run 0:02:52.280 --> 0:02:55.640 and Eddie Jackson interception that was awful big too, and 0:02:55.720 --> 0:02:59.800 a big shared third down sack by Roquan and Dominique Robinson. 0:03:00.280 --> 0:03:03.760 Those are the headlines. There's hidden highlights along the way, 0:03:03.800 --> 0:03:06.600 But just put all that into context for us and 0:03:06.639 --> 0:03:08.720 then maybe throw us some hidden highlights in that game 0:03:08.760 --> 0:03:11.480 that we maybe not focusing on after you watch the tape. Yeah, 0:03:11.520 --> 0:03:13.240 I mean, you know I told the players in the 0:03:13.320 --> 0:03:15.399 night before that you know it's going to come down 0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:17.919 to six or seven plays, and those are the plays 0:03:17.960 --> 0:03:20.320 you just described. That were the plays you know that 0:03:20.360 --> 0:03:22.880 we talked about the night before. But you also have 0:03:22.960 --> 0:03:25.040 to perform in the plays to the other plays, and 0:03:25.120 --> 0:03:27.079 you never know when those six or seven plays are 0:03:27.080 --> 0:03:28.760 gonna come. You don't know if it's going to be 0:03:28.800 --> 0:03:30.880 played one. It could be play seventy two, could be 0:03:30.880 --> 0:03:33.840 played forty two. That's why the cycle of the snap 0:03:33.919 --> 0:03:37.360 in our foundation is so important that we play you know, 0:03:37.800 --> 0:03:41.880 full speed, you know, aggressive smart football every single play 0:03:41.880 --> 0:03:44.119 and then good things happened. And that's what happened there. 0:03:44.360 --> 0:03:46.520 And really, just to answer your second part of the question, 0:03:46.760 --> 0:03:50.320 highlighted that would be when Dante Pettis caught that football 0:03:50.680 --> 0:03:54.040 across the field, you had EQ come all the way 0:03:54.080 --> 0:03:57.480 across the field to block for the touchdown, you know, 0:03:57.640 --> 0:04:00.200 and Dante set it up and EQ came all the 0:04:00.200 --> 0:04:02.720 way over and made that final block and there it was. 0:04:02.800 --> 0:04:05.440 But that just goes about, you know, our principles of 0:04:05.560 --> 0:04:08.000 how you hustle and play with great intensity, and he 0:04:08.120 --> 0:04:10.520 certainly showed that on that play. Yeah, we're gonna talk 0:04:10.520 --> 0:04:14.160 about EQ even later in the show on his touchdown catchup. 0:04:14.240 --> 0:04:17.320 That was my favorite design play of the game. We'll 0:04:17.360 --> 0:04:19.760 get into that leader in the show. It was an 0:04:19.800 --> 0:04:21.920 upset in the Vegas world. Of course, you don't live 0:04:21.960 --> 0:04:23.800 in that world. The players and coaches don't live in 0:04:23.839 --> 0:04:27.000 that world. This belief in each other I think has 0:04:27.040 --> 0:04:31.279 grown maybe quicker than most, maybe even the players feeling that. 0:04:31.480 --> 0:04:33.800 Even a comment made I think it was Tevin Jenkins 0:04:33.880 --> 0:04:37.840 actually after the game said everything coach Eberflus has been 0:04:37.839 --> 0:04:40.960 telling us is coming true. Well, you know, it's when 0:04:40.960 --> 0:04:44.560 the guys work hard together, you know, and put something 0:04:44.600 --> 0:04:46.800 out there, which they did, you know, all the last 0:04:46.920 --> 0:04:49.960 last seven months in training camp. They've always done, you know, 0:04:50.040 --> 0:04:53.120 put everything out there, done everything we've asked them to do. 0:04:53.800 --> 0:04:56.880 And there's a bond that happens there. And that's what 0:04:56.960 --> 0:04:59.839 you're seeing, you know, and guys hell do a standard. 0:05:00.240 --> 0:05:04.200 They're starting to hold themselves to our standard. And that's 0:05:04.240 --> 0:05:07.159 the reflection of the game. The other day, You've indicated 0:05:07.200 --> 0:05:09.200 that it takes a long time to watch tape the 0:05:09.240 --> 0:05:12.919 way you guys grade the tape at this point, because 0:05:12.920 --> 0:05:16.120 I don't know how you operate every single day during 0:05:16.160 --> 0:05:18.960 the regular season. So how many times have you watched it? 0:05:18.960 --> 0:05:20.920 Have you watched it once or do you go back? 0:05:21.000 --> 0:05:22.600 How many times do you go back through it? And 0:05:22.760 --> 0:05:25.279 how long does it take? It takes a while because 0:05:25.360 --> 0:05:27.479 you know what I watched the tape. It's it's one 0:05:27.560 --> 0:05:30.159 hundred and fifty six plays, so I got I watched continuous, 0:05:30.279 --> 0:05:32.240 so I'll start with it's the way the game goes, 0:05:32.279 --> 0:05:35.560 so the the kicking, and then offense, then hunt and 0:05:35.560 --> 0:05:37.560 then defense. And I watched it all the way through 0:05:37.560 --> 0:05:39.840 so I can get the flow of the game, just 0:05:39.880 --> 0:05:43.320 for more of a game management style to watch it 0:05:43.360 --> 0:05:45.520 that way. But on every play, I'm watching effort, you know, 0:05:45.520 --> 0:05:48.279 I'm watching the intensity. I'm watching how we're how we're 0:05:48.360 --> 0:05:50.120 taking care of the ball, and how we're you know, 0:05:50.240 --> 0:05:53.200 really take you getting after the football on defense and 0:05:53.240 --> 0:05:55.279 then if we're playing smart, you know, in terms of 0:05:55.360 --> 0:05:57.960 being aggressive and being smart. So it takes a while, 0:05:58.000 --> 0:06:01.240 you know. I got in here this morning at around six, 0:06:01.960 --> 0:06:04.960 started watching the tape and I was done around ten 0:06:05.480 --> 0:06:07.960 ten thirty, So it took me a while to watch it. 0:06:08.000 --> 0:06:10.599 But that's what we're here to do. Yeah, we're here 0:06:10.600 --> 0:06:12.520 to have the standards and we're here to make sure 0:06:12.560 --> 0:06:14.839 we don't walk by a mistake and make sure that 0:06:15.200 --> 0:06:17.000 we're grading the guys the right way so they can 0:06:17.000 --> 0:06:19.400 get the feedback they need to get better. All right, 0:06:19.440 --> 0:06:21.920 let's get into some of what happened yesterday. Let's tide 0:06:21.920 --> 0:06:24.359 the running game because there was a commitment. Certainly the 0:06:24.360 --> 0:06:27.400 weather contributed to that. Thirty seven. We love that here 0:06:27.400 --> 0:06:31.480 in Chicago. The ninety nine yards also is significant. It's 0:06:31.520 --> 0:06:33.480 it's it's it's a good number. It's a hundred, it's 0:06:33.520 --> 0:06:35.360 almost one hundred yards. It's not what you want yards 0:06:35.400 --> 0:06:37.440 per carry. But in these conditions and the commitment to it, 0:06:37.520 --> 0:06:39.680 would you say it was a successful day. Yeah, And 0:06:39.720 --> 0:06:41.800 I think that the weather dictator that you know, on 0:06:41.839 --> 0:06:43.599 both sides of the ball. We you know, both teams 0:06:43.680 --> 0:06:45.359 run the ball at the same amount of times, you know, 0:06:45.440 --> 0:06:48.159 so it's, uh, you know, a commitment that you have 0:06:48.240 --> 0:06:49.920 to have when the weather's like that, and you got 0:06:49.960 --> 0:06:51.480 to be able to be good at it. You know, 0:06:51.520 --> 0:06:53.679 you got to be good stopping the run and running 0:06:53.760 --> 0:06:56.120 the ball. And we certainly need to improve on both sides, 0:06:56.320 --> 0:06:58.279 both sides of the ball in that regard. We're going 0:06:58.320 --> 0:07:00.760 to really work hard on that this week. Five first 0:07:00.800 --> 0:07:05.039 downs by penalty. Now, the commitment of the committed penalties 0:07:05.080 --> 0:07:07.640 were San Francisco, twelve of them for ninety nine yards. Also, 0:07:08.080 --> 0:07:11.760 but your players and how they're using their technique and 0:07:11.840 --> 0:07:15.680 how they're performing also contribute to drawing those penalties. So 0:07:15.920 --> 0:07:17.960 I would imagine that's a huge win for you. Yeah, 0:07:18.000 --> 0:07:19.760 I mean, penalties are always a big part of it. 0:07:19.800 --> 0:07:22.240 That's not beating yourself, you know, and you can play 0:07:22.320 --> 0:07:24.400 inside the whistle, you know, make sure you know snapped 0:07:24.400 --> 0:07:28.280 the whistle and play aggressive style and still get your 0:07:28.360 --> 0:07:31.120 job done. And we're always talking about that. We had 0:07:31.280 --> 0:07:33.920 the officials in for training camp a lot of times. 0:07:34.440 --> 0:07:37.640 We've played our guys a lot in preseason for that reason, 0:07:37.680 --> 0:07:39.800 and we want to play clean football, and it showed 0:07:39.800 --> 0:07:43.440 on Sunday the Bears Coaches Show with Mattie Buflus and 0:07:43.600 --> 0:07:47.520 w BBMS Jeff joni I continued, there's the snap at 0:07:47.520 --> 0:07:51.200 out of readoption. It gives left to Samuel, he bounces inside, 0:07:51.200 --> 0:07:54.200 he follow the football, Bears have taken it away and 0:07:54.400 --> 0:07:58.400 under his arm. Jaquan Brisker the safety horse bumble. Jalen 0:07:58.520 --> 0:08:01.320 Johnson recovered by brisk Welcome back to the Bears Coaches 0:08:01.360 --> 0:08:04.040 Show with Bears head coach Matt Eberflus here until eight 0:08:04.040 --> 0:08:06.440 o'clock tonight as we get ready for the Green Bay Packers. 0:08:06.520 --> 0:08:09.360 Later in the show, first defensive series and why don't 0:08:09.360 --> 0:08:11.920 you know it a forced fumble to stop the drive 0:08:12.080 --> 0:08:14.840 in the red zone, Jalen Johnson pulling up peanut punch 0:08:14.920 --> 0:08:17.400 and Charles Timlan was there yesterday as one of the 0:08:17.440 --> 0:08:20.080 honorary captains enjoying the show. Had to make him happy 0:08:20.120 --> 0:08:22.960 to see that in the recovery by Jaquan Brisker. It's 0:08:22.960 --> 0:08:25.680 what you've been preaching, and you'll preaching till the cows 0:08:25.720 --> 0:08:28.280 come home, right, Yeah, it was. It was a good play. 0:08:28.840 --> 0:08:30.840 You know, we were in a shell coverage there, and 0:08:30.880 --> 0:08:34.000 you know, Jaalen head force on the defense in terms 0:08:34.040 --> 0:08:36.200 of the run play and he and that reaching there 0:08:36.240 --> 0:08:38.720 and punching it out. And then Jaquan was the apex player, 0:08:38.800 --> 0:08:40.480 you know, playing the half part of the field and 0:08:40.480 --> 0:08:43.040 he ended up recovering it. And we have some good pursuit, 0:08:43.080 --> 0:08:45.160 you know, Roquan was pursuing the ball as well. We 0:08:45.200 --> 0:08:47.640 had some good pursuit inside out but it was a 0:08:47.720 --> 0:08:49.280 nice play. You know, it could there's a couple of 0:08:49.280 --> 0:08:51.120 things that could we could do a little bit better 0:08:51.480 --> 0:08:53.679 on that play, but uh, you know, we'll talk to 0:08:53.720 --> 0:08:57.200 the players about that details. But but we got the 0:08:57.200 --> 0:08:59.360 fumble recovery on that one, right, because in the end, 0:08:59.480 --> 0:09:03.240 that's truly what you care about is the finish. Yes, finish, 0:09:03.240 --> 0:09:05.720 and that's what that's really goes to the coaches. You know, 0:09:05.760 --> 0:09:08.040 we and all of our drools, we have a start 0:09:08.080 --> 0:09:10.040 to every droll, We have a finished every droll. We 0:09:10.080 --> 0:09:13.040 make sure that guys finished the right way, and they 0:09:13.080 --> 0:09:15.679 certainly did that on that play. Does your Bears fandom 0:09:15.679 --> 0:09:17.720 go beyond the game? Enter to win a trip to 0:09:17.720 --> 0:09:19.920 the Super Bowl at NFL dot com, slash Fan of 0:09:19.920 --> 0:09:22.360 the Year or Chicago Bears dot com. This is the 0:09:22.360 --> 0:09:26.240 Bears Coaching Show on WBBM Jeff Joniac and coach Eberflus. 0:09:26.280 --> 0:09:29.319 All right, let's take Eddie Jackson's diving interception in twenty 0:09:29.320 --> 0:09:32.400 six yard return. It was significant, but more than just 0:09:32.440 --> 0:09:34.800 for the impact of this game. For him as a person, 0:09:35.080 --> 0:09:36.800 it's been eating at him for a long time. That 0:09:36.880 --> 0:09:39.559 was his first one in thirty one games. He's only 0:09:39.600 --> 0:09:41.760 had two in the last forty seven. You know, he's 0:09:41.800 --> 0:09:45.120 had some taken away or whatever. But the exuberance at 0:09:45.120 --> 0:09:48.520 which I saw with my own eyes and sat down 0:09:48.520 --> 0:09:50.760 with him last week for an interview we're gonna run 0:09:50.960 --> 0:09:54.160 later this week on Bears Game Day Live on Fox. 0:09:55.040 --> 0:09:56.640 It's just that he feels he's going to have the 0:09:56.640 --> 0:09:58.480 best year of his career. And it's because of the 0:09:58.480 --> 0:10:01.400 positions that you guys have designed to put him in. Yeah, 0:10:01.440 --> 0:10:05.160 and it's really you know him, he's really working his 0:10:05.280 --> 0:10:08.000 tail off. He's really got himself in great shape. He 0:10:08.040 --> 0:10:11.360 looks fantastic, he looks fast, he's quick, and that's how 0:10:11.400 --> 0:10:14.200 he's been practicing. And he's put the work in, you know, 0:10:14.280 --> 0:10:17.040 in training camp all the way through, and he put 0:10:17.120 --> 0:10:20.120 himself in that position, and he has that confidence because 0:10:20.120 --> 0:10:21.800 of the work he puts out on the practice field. 0:10:21.800 --> 0:10:24.360 You know, in that particular play he ended up dropping in. 0:10:24.440 --> 0:10:27.400 He was a robber to that defense and they end 0:10:27.480 --> 0:10:29.680 up running an inside breaking route and he happened to 0:10:29.720 --> 0:10:31.760 be right there. Read the quarterbacks. I stepped right in 0:10:31.800 --> 0:10:34.000 front of it, you know, popped up off the ground 0:10:34.160 --> 0:10:36.000 before he was touched and had a nice return of 0:10:36.040 --> 0:10:38.720 twenty six yards to the twenty one yard line, and 0:10:39.000 --> 0:10:40.840 we got to do a little bit better job blocking 0:10:40.920 --> 0:10:43.920 for him on that return. But we'll get with our 0:10:43.920 --> 0:10:46.520 players on that. But it was a nice job by him, 0:10:46.559 --> 0:10:48.800 all right, because I gave him that a moniker in 0:10:48.800 --> 0:10:52.160 his first two years of quick six Jackson, so he's 0:10:52.160 --> 0:10:54.559 always hunting for the end zone. Roal quant Smith, How 0:10:54.559 --> 0:10:56.839 did he perform first time? It's first time you look 0:10:56.880 --> 0:10:59.160 at him and a regular season game as a week 0:10:59.200 --> 0:11:01.440 side linebacker and four three defense. Yeah, I think he 0:11:01.480 --> 0:11:03.920 did well. He did well for the first time coming out. 0:11:04.160 --> 0:11:05.880 There's a lot of action in there, and there's a 0:11:05.880 --> 0:11:08.200 lot of plays to be made in that position. And 0:11:08.200 --> 0:11:10.520 he let our team in tackles and and you had 0:11:10.559 --> 0:11:12.600 that half a sack and did a nice job getting 0:11:12.600 --> 0:11:15.559 into some you know, defending the pass and um, you know, 0:11:15.600 --> 0:11:17.600 I think he's got a great opportunity at the end 0:11:17.600 --> 0:11:19.440 of the game if that's if it's not so wet, 0:11:19.520 --> 0:11:21.000 you know, because the ball was really high on that, 0:11:21.040 --> 0:11:23.880 I think he probably picks that. So he's gonna have 0:11:23.920 --> 0:11:26.160 his opportunities or that's a hot spot in our defense, 0:11:26.160 --> 0:11:27.800 and he got the right guy there for us. Yeah, 0:11:27.800 --> 0:11:31.040 I was going to ask you, given a blue sky day, 0:11:31.080 --> 0:11:33.920 would that have been potentially a tip pass? The ball's 0:11:33.960 --> 0:11:37.160 probably heavy from the water, whatnot even to the secondary 0:11:37.280 --> 0:11:39.800 or by himself. Yeah, yeah, and he knows he can 0:11:39.880 --> 0:11:41.360 make that play, and he should have made the play. 0:11:41.400 --> 0:11:43.680 But he's definitely gonna be chomping at the bit to 0:11:43.679 --> 0:11:45.640 get his first one here coming soon. You know, just 0:11:45.640 --> 0:11:48.480 just popped in my head because her lacker in the 0:11:48.600 --> 0:11:51.480 lovey version of this defense the mic down the pike 0:11:52.000 --> 0:11:55.120 something like that, is Morrow have that same kind of 0:11:55.160 --> 0:11:57.680 moniker the mic down the pike. He liked that turn 0:11:57.840 --> 0:12:03.880 I do. It's it is good And yeah, he will 0:12:03.920 --> 0:12:05.760 have some of that. And we change that up. We 0:12:05.800 --> 0:12:08.240 need we know who carries those guys down the vertical. 0:12:08.320 --> 0:12:10.640 We change that up as we go. But that's been 0:12:10.679 --> 0:12:13.800 adjusted over the years. But certainly Marrow would have that 0:12:13.880 --> 0:12:16.920 job all right, others because I know this feeds feeds 0:12:17.000 --> 0:12:20.839 your desires is just getting your hands on the ball. 0:12:20.920 --> 0:12:24.000 So that to the nearest side, Kyler broke on a ball. 0:12:24.120 --> 0:12:26.600 Trevis Gipson just tipped the past. Could that have been 0:12:26.640 --> 0:12:29.600 an interception if that pass hadn't been deflected? Yeah, as 0:12:29.640 --> 0:12:31.439 he broke on it quickly I think it still should 0:12:31.480 --> 0:12:34.480 be intercepted because, yeah, I think we have to have 0:12:34.559 --> 0:12:36.680 the ability to track the ball if it moves, because 0:12:36.679 --> 0:12:39.199 obviously we're gonna get some tip passes in there, and 0:12:39.240 --> 0:12:43.240 we have drolls that replicate that, and so he's worked 0:12:43.240 --> 0:12:45.439 on that in practice and we expect him to make 0:12:45.480 --> 0:12:48.000 that play. All right, your corners, by my math, I 0:12:48.000 --> 0:12:49.800 don't know if you guys adjust what he is given 0:12:49.840 --> 0:12:52.760 in the post game statistics for defensive tackles and whatnot. 0:12:52.760 --> 0:12:55.400 You guys may have your own, but I counted up 0:12:55.440 --> 0:12:58.760 sixteen by the corners. The three corners Kendallville, Door and 0:12:58.880 --> 0:13:03.880 Jalen and Brisker, Gordon Johnson allwit tackles for loss. So 0:13:03.920 --> 0:13:06.800 a very active day. You're expecting these corners to be 0:13:07.080 --> 0:13:09.880 physical tacklers. Yeah, you know are saying, I'm sure this 0:13:09.920 --> 0:13:12.880 will be a mike down the pike here. So there's 0:13:12.920 --> 0:13:16.199 no house guests, yes, in our defense, So that means 0:13:16.200 --> 0:13:19.880 that everybody tackles, you know, everybody runs. Everybody tackles in 0:13:19.960 --> 0:13:22.760 our defense, and that's including the corners, and we work 0:13:22.800 --> 0:13:25.280 on it every single Wednesday, every Thursday, and that's an 0:13:25.320 --> 0:13:28.760 important piece to our success. Now, more of the Bears 0:13:28.800 --> 0:13:33.520 Coaches Show featuring Mattie Berflues on Chicongo's news trafficking weather 0:13:33.559 --> 0:13:37.720 Station one oh five nine w BBMS. That back stunt 0:13:37.760 --> 0:13:40.360 picked up up front, Eric Darmstead being shoved out of 0:13:40.360 --> 0:13:42.679 the way, circling out of it, pivoting to set up 0:13:42.679 --> 0:13:46.720 a throw wide open nearside pass this cut, there's Pettis 0:13:46.880 --> 0:13:49.560 to the twenty, to the fifteen, to the ten, to 0:13:49.679 --> 0:13:55.559 the end, Joe Wow, justin fields to wide open Don 0:13:55.880 --> 0:13:59.720 Pettis and fires a fifty one yard touching run touchdown, 0:14:00.160 --> 0:14:03.679 backyard ed lived football with Fields using his legs to 0:14:03.760 --> 0:14:05.960 buy time scanning the field, comes all the way back 0:14:05.960 --> 0:14:08.840 to the near side to find an uncovered Dante Pettis. 0:14:08.880 --> 0:14:11.400 Your big highlight of fifty one yard touchdown and as 0:14:11.480 --> 0:14:14.480 Coachiberflus mentioned earlier in the show, at terrific black by 0:14:14.520 --> 0:14:17.439 Equimenia Saint Brown, that's a sweet six right there and 0:14:17.480 --> 0:14:19.920 a fire starter free football team. Yeah, it really was. 0:14:20.000 --> 0:14:23.480 It was a momentum shifter for sure, And what great 0:14:23.600 --> 0:14:26.400 vision by Justin Nabie able to get out of the 0:14:26.440 --> 0:14:29.040 pocket there and create that space for himself and then 0:14:29.040 --> 0:14:31.200 to have a vision to see all the way across 0:14:31.240 --> 0:14:34.560 the field to a wide open Dante Pettas, and like 0:14:34.560 --> 0:14:37.760 we said, Eq did a great job of coming across 0:14:37.760 --> 0:14:41.320 the field and making that touchdown block and that was 0:14:41.360 --> 0:14:44.560 really exciting. In the setup by Dante to veer back 0:14:44.600 --> 0:14:46.840 inside to buy himself a little more space to get 0:14:46.880 --> 0:14:49.000 to the near pylon. That was also a nice job 0:14:49.000 --> 0:14:52.160 on his run. How did you evaluate how Justin handled 0:14:52.200 --> 0:14:55.400 the defensive front of the forty nine ers, the read options, 0:14:55.440 --> 0:14:57.240 those type of things. Yeah, he did a really good job. 0:14:57.280 --> 0:15:00.560 That's a great front. I mean, you got Bosa Armstead, 0:15:00.680 --> 0:15:02.840 can Law, there's some really good guy, you know, Werner. 0:15:02.880 --> 0:15:05.400 In the terms of the linebacker, that's one of the 0:15:05.520 --> 0:15:06.840 some of the you know, I would say probably the 0:15:06.880 --> 0:15:09.920 top one of the top five defenses fronts and football. 0:15:10.000 --> 0:15:13.560 So I thought our guys did well. Certainly in the 0:15:13.600 --> 0:15:15.840 second half we did a lot better, you know, the 0:15:15.920 --> 0:15:17.960 keepers and all that really is. You know, that's a 0:15:18.000 --> 0:15:20.120 threat that he has. He's able to do that with 0:15:20.160 --> 0:15:23.000 his feet and you can certainly see feel his speed 0:15:23.080 --> 0:15:25.560 on the field. There a lot of times him taking 0:15:25.640 --> 0:15:27.360 up grass and him doing a great job and get 0:15:27.440 --> 0:15:30.000 into the sideline and protected himself. I don't have all 0:15:30.040 --> 0:15:31.400 the quotes in front of me. But I read an 0:15:31.440 --> 0:15:34.040 article in the Athletic Steve Young to the San Francisco 0:15:34.360 --> 0:15:37.480 reporters out there talking about how, you know, he's a 0:15:37.560 --> 0:15:39.920 mobile quarterback and all he wanted to do was run 0:15:39.960 --> 0:15:42.360 at first first look, and they didn't see it. Boom, 0:15:42.400 --> 0:15:45.720 He's gonna go. And the great Sid Gilman actually took 0:15:45.760 --> 0:15:49.760 him aside in the USFL and tied his feet together 0:15:50.000 --> 0:15:52.280 so that he would force himself to throw from the 0:15:52.280 --> 0:15:55.320 pocket and and and throw guys open. And that changed 0:15:55.360 --> 0:15:57.840 his whole career because he did struggle in Tampa Bay 0:15:57.840 --> 0:15:59.480 when he first came in the league, and it was 0:15:59.560 --> 0:16:02.200 very attic back there, and you may recall some of 0:16:02.200 --> 0:16:05.640 these discussions, you know, over the course of your football life. 0:16:05.640 --> 0:16:07.840 But because it was brought up because of the two 0:16:07.880 --> 0:16:10.160 quarterbacks that were facing off, two guys that have to 0:16:10.240 --> 0:16:13.480 learn that, you know, the effectiveness of pulling the trigger 0:16:13.480 --> 0:16:16.200 from the pocket. When that happened, he became a much 0:16:16.240 --> 0:16:19.040 better overall quarterback and then became even more dangerous with 0:16:19.080 --> 0:16:22.160 his legs. Do you find truth in that here? Moving forward? Oh? Yeah, 0:16:22.280 --> 0:16:25.280 I really believe that yesterday he made good decisions, you know, 0:16:25.400 --> 0:16:28.360 justin did a nice StEB of dropping back, going through 0:16:28.360 --> 0:16:31.280 his progression and then when he felt the rush, he 0:16:31.520 --> 0:16:33.920 escaped by using his feet. And that, to me is 0:16:33.960 --> 0:16:35.880 what you're supposed to do. You know, a lot of 0:16:35.960 --> 0:16:38.280 quarterbacks don't have that option. You know, they don't have 0:16:38.320 --> 0:16:40.080 the option. They're in there and if guess what if 0:16:40.080 --> 0:16:42.440 it breaks down, they're they're in there, you know, and 0:16:42.480 --> 0:16:44.600 they get sacked and take the sack. So I thought 0:16:44.640 --> 0:16:46.560 he did a nice job of feeling that as the 0:16:46.640 --> 0:16:49.200 game went on, of when did use his feet and 0:16:49.360 --> 0:16:51.960 use him wisely and then stay out of harm's way, 0:16:52.000 --> 0:16:54.040 And he did that. Yeah, I was not even referring 0:16:54.120 --> 0:16:57.480 just his performance yesterday, but bigger picture. They always say, 0:16:57.480 --> 0:16:59.720 you know, hey, until a quarterback can pull the trigger 0:16:59.760 --> 0:17:02.320 from the pocket and be a pocket passer first, you 0:17:02.360 --> 0:17:04.720 know that, that's when you know you got a really 0:17:04.720 --> 0:17:07.440 good question. I mean, I always looking at situational football. 0:17:07.600 --> 0:17:10.480 You know, when the quarterback operates, you know, in third down, 0:17:10.520 --> 0:17:12.560 two minute, you know, to win the game for you 0:17:12.760 --> 0:17:14.840 that's when you're operating from the pocket. And that's what 0:17:14.880 --> 0:17:16.640 the greats have done over the course of the years. 0:17:16.640 --> 0:17:18.359 That's when I believe you think, you know, you know 0:17:18.440 --> 0:17:20.959 you have a good one. The crazy thing about yesterday 0:17:21.040 --> 0:17:24.480 to your top weapons, darn alimony and Cole commet to 0:17:24.560 --> 0:17:27.320 combine four targets I think in the game. But you know, 0:17:27.400 --> 0:17:30.400 eight different guys were throwing the football, but you only through, 0:17:30.480 --> 0:17:34.080 you know, at seventeen passes. So it's you can't evaluate that. 0:17:34.119 --> 0:17:36.399 It is what it is, it's what dictated. Yeah, I 0:17:36.400 --> 0:17:38.359 mean it was the weather. I mean, you know it 0:17:38.400 --> 0:17:40.760 was it was tough for both teams to move the 0:17:40.800 --> 0:17:44.440 football and the weather dictated that. Yesterday, play of the 0:17:44.480 --> 0:17:47.359 offensive line, I mean, this was supposed to be the topic. 0:17:47.880 --> 0:17:49.960 How did they play? How did they do? What you 0:17:50.000 --> 0:17:52.240 said at a great front. Yeah, it was. You know, 0:17:52.280 --> 0:17:54.880 again they're playing at some some the best in football 0:17:55.080 --> 0:17:57.800 at some spots there, and uh, I thought they handled 0:17:57.840 --> 0:17:59.879 it well. You know, they operated well as a group. 0:18:00.040 --> 0:18:03.240 They played together. The five out there played together really 0:18:03.280 --> 0:18:06.800 well during the course of the game. And again it's 0:18:06.880 --> 0:18:09.199 like every other position, we got lots of things to 0:18:09.200 --> 0:18:11.280 work on. We got to keep working, keep getting better 0:18:11.320 --> 0:18:13.960 with the coach, and we'll do that this week with 0:18:14.200 --> 0:18:17.359 Chris Morgan. As promised to Bosa played both sides. I 0:18:17.440 --> 0:18:19.520 think he's first six or so we're on the on 0:18:19.560 --> 0:18:23.040 the right tackle and I think, I my MAT's not great, 0:18:23.119 --> 0:18:25.720 but I think thirty on one side and twenty five 0:18:25.840 --> 0:18:28.480 or twenty seven on the other right, So yeah, that's 0:18:28.520 --> 0:18:30.840 by design. Yeah, that's that's smart because you're trying to 0:18:30.880 --> 0:18:32.760 bring chips to them and you're trying to thump them 0:18:32.800 --> 0:18:34.680 on the outside a little bit to slow them down, 0:18:35.200 --> 0:18:37.280 bluff them, thump them and do those types of things. 0:18:37.440 --> 0:18:39.879 They do that really to mix it up. So you 0:18:40.080 --> 0:18:41.800
