Jeff Joni had 0:00:35.000 --> 0:00:37.879 a pleasant, good evening everybody, and welcome into PANC Studios 0:00:37.880 --> 0:00:41.040 at hallisaw for a week eight edition of The Bears 0:00:41.040 --> 0:00:43.279 Coaches Show with Head coach Matt Naggie, Jeff Joni equ 0:00:43.280 --> 0:00:45.519 with you until eight o'clock tonight and later joined by 0:00:45.520 --> 0:00:50.840 Bear Special Teams Coordinator Chris Tabor. Good evening, How you doing, Jeff? Fantastic? 0:00:51.479 --> 0:00:55.080 So it comes down to a hail Mary, how about that? Yeah, 0:00:55.080 --> 0:00:57.320 it was crazy for it to come down to that, 0:00:57.400 --> 0:01:00.880 and you know, obviously you'd love your phases to play 0:01:00.960 --> 0:01:02.880 better so it doesn't come down to that. But I 0:01:03.040 --> 0:01:05.320 was you know, our guys battled to the very end 0:01:05.360 --> 0:01:09.080 and came up a yard short. Yeah, And how often 0:01:09.160 --> 0:01:12.360 do you guys practice hail Mary's We actually practiced it 0:01:12.440 --> 0:01:15.640 quite a bit now, trying to get it, uh, you know, 0:01:15.760 --> 0:01:19.160 in real action and without somebody jumping up and having 0:01:19.200 --> 0:01:21.679 a mosh pit of guys. They're just jumping up on 0:01:21.720 --> 0:01:23.600 each on each other and coming down and do an ankle. 0:01:23.680 --> 0:01:28.160 So we we try to practice them the formation and 0:01:28.319 --> 0:01:30.920 go through the procedure as much as possible without going 0:01:30.920 --> 0:01:33.520 through trying to get injuries in practice. What do you 0:01:33.600 --> 0:01:36.839 think if he didn't have a hand in his face, 0:01:36.920 --> 0:01:40.760 Mitch at that very last second, it's pretty amazing that 0:01:40.800 --> 0:01:44.960 he got that much leverage on that. Yeah. Yeah, it's 0:01:45.000 --> 0:01:47.080 just no well, and it's a sixty yard throw, and 0:01:47.160 --> 0:01:49.200 that was it was going into the wind a little bit. 0:01:49.240 --> 0:01:51.080 That was the direction of going into the wind all 0:01:51.200 --> 0:01:54.240 day and uh and so yeah, if you could buy 0:01:54.280 --> 0:01:56.160 a little bit more time or hold that guy off 0:01:56.160 --> 0:01:58.000 just a little bit more to be able to get 0:01:58.000 --> 0:02:00.160 a few more yards into the end zone. And it 0:02:00.200 --> 0:02:01.800 was a great job by Kevin to go up at 0:02:01.800 --> 0:02:04.680 the highest point get that ball and um and give 0:02:04.760 --> 0:02:07.240 us an opportunity there at the end and then to 0:02:07.360 --> 0:02:10.480 make to make a you know, an effort to reach 0:02:10.520 --> 0:02:13.040 across you had to make a move. It was good too, 0:02:13.080 --> 0:02:16.200 and unfortunately just wasn't enough and should have never came 0:02:16.240 --> 0:02:17.919 down to that. We got to play better as a team, 0:02:18.240 --> 0:02:21.280 all right, But you score thirty one, you hold the 0:02:21.320 --> 0:02:25.360 Patriots on offense the twenty four. If you were to 0:02:25.440 --> 0:02:28.720 say that ahead of time, would you take that, you'd say, yeah, 0:02:28.760 --> 0:02:33.080 well you would, you would. And you know, the thirty 0:02:33.120 --> 0:02:36.160 one points for the offense is great, and you know 0:02:36.919 --> 0:02:39.079 some of those came off with nice turnovers too. You know, 0:02:39.160 --> 0:02:42.240 the defense got a turnover with a fumble recovery. Special 0:02:42.240 --> 0:02:45.960 teams also, you know got a got a turnover on 0:02:46.000 --> 0:02:49.880 a kickoff return. And so for us putting up thirty 0:02:49.919 --> 0:02:52.040 one points is good. The defense again with one of 0:02:52.080 --> 0:02:54.440 the greatest quarterbacks to ever played this game to to 0:02:54.480 --> 0:02:56.880 hold them the twenty four points. But that's why it's 0:02:57.040 --> 0:02:59.440 a team sport. And um, there's gonna be times this 0:02:59.520 --> 0:03:02.520 year where special teams is gonna win us a game, 0:03:02.560 --> 0:03:04.880 if not more, And this just happened to be one 0:03:04.919 --> 0:03:07.960 where I know that the special teams players and coaches 0:03:08.000 --> 0:03:11.200 wishes that those two touchdowns didn't occur. The fact of 0:03:11.200 --> 0:03:13.280 the matter is they did, and now how do we 0:03:13.320 --> 0:03:16.960 fix it going forward. The one of the issues, in 0:03:17.000 --> 0:03:21.520 my opinion, with today's coverage of football is beyond just 0:03:21.600 --> 0:03:24.840 the daily beat writers and the analysts on TV, is 0:03:25.320 --> 0:03:29.919 a lot of people dig into stats, stats that come 0:03:30.040 --> 0:03:32.880 up from different websites and whatnot. And you don't know 0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:36.720 what's fact in fiction. You do in your own building, obviously, 0:03:37.240 --> 0:03:42.160 but it creates a whole different storyline on occasion. So 0:03:42.560 --> 0:03:46.280 when you look at poor throws or bad throws or 0:03:46.320 --> 0:03:50.000 whatever in your mind out of those fifty throws. You 0:03:50.440 --> 0:03:53.600 educated the media a little bit today about about all that. 0:03:53.760 --> 0:03:57.080 Because routes are run certain ways, maybe they're not running right. 0:03:57.120 --> 0:03:59.800 We brought this up a few weeks back. So how 0:04:00.040 --> 0:04:02.240 any would you say you'd like to have back or 0:04:02.280 --> 0:04:04.120 he'd like that back out of that? Well, there there's 0:04:04.120 --> 0:04:06.400 a there's there's a few in there. Uh. And again 0:04:06.440 --> 0:04:09.080 I don't have the exact number. Uh, but you know, 0:04:09.240 --> 0:04:12.680 like you just said, there's protection issues, there's guys getting open, 0:04:12.800 --> 0:04:15.000 and then there's sometimes there's just they played good defense 0:04:15.160 --> 0:04:19.000 and that's a part of football. Um, and so uh, 0:04:19.040 --> 0:04:22.080 you know the decision making that he made, Uh, he 0:04:22.120 --> 0:04:25.120 made a great decision on the on the touchdown to 0:04:25.200 --> 0:04:28.840 Tariq down there inside to five yard line. Um that 0:04:28.839 --> 0:04:30.960 that that that he made there with that play call. 0:04:31.040 --> 0:04:32.799 I mean, he just he was doing some good stuff 0:04:32.839 --> 0:04:34.880 there and they had some zero checks, they were bringing 0:04:34.920 --> 0:04:38.920 some heat, bringing some pressure and uh he escaped from 0:04:38.960 --> 0:04:42.920 several uh um uh blitzes cover zero looks and and 0:04:42.960 --> 0:04:45.280 so there's there's a few, you know, downfield. I think 0:04:45.320 --> 0:04:48.200 some of them came towards the end, like that last possession. 0:04:48.279 --> 0:04:51.720 There was a few downfield, um where he probably wishes 0:04:51.760 --> 0:04:53.640 he had back. But there was some early in the 0:04:53.680 --> 0:04:55.960 game that might have looked like they were on him 0:04:56.040 --> 0:04:59.160 for for being slightly overthrown or just off touch. But 0:04:59.200 --> 0:05:02.480 there's there's other other reasons for it. And Taylor Gabriel 0:05:02.560 --> 0:05:04.560 mentioned after the game that, you know, they felt he 0:05:04.600 --> 0:05:06.880 felt like they were giving him a lot of a 0:05:06.880 --> 0:05:09.200 lot of attention out there, so he couldn't do exactly 0:05:09.279 --> 0:05:11.800 what he wanted to do in terms of the deep game. 0:05:12.080 --> 0:05:14.360 And I think that was kind of the statement even 0:05:14.360 --> 0:05:15.960 throughout the course of the week from the Patriots that 0:05:16.080 --> 0:05:17.960 you know, the deep game had been hurting them a 0:05:17.960 --> 0:05:20.040 little bit, and you guys had been doing a really 0:05:20.040 --> 0:05:22.080 good jab in the deep game. Yeah, that was that 0:05:22.160 --> 0:05:24.120 was going to be a focus for them. And Taylor's 0:05:24.120 --> 0:05:26.679 had he put before yesterday, he put together two pretty 0:05:26.720 --> 0:05:29.159 good games, two hundred yard games, and he's a fast 0:05:29.160 --> 0:05:32.600 wide receiver that can go downtown. So he's he's gonna 0:05:32.640 --> 0:05:35.520 get recognition and that's okay. If teams are going to 0:05:35.560 --> 0:05:36.920 decide to do that, then we got to be able 0:05:36.920 --> 0:05:38.440 to have other guys step up. And you saw a 0:05:38.440 --> 0:05:41.640 guy like Trey Burton yesterday makes some nice catches over 0:05:41.640 --> 0:05:43.440 the middle of the field, had a nice touchdown catch 0:05:43.480 --> 0:05:46.040 there at the end of the game. And hopefully as 0:05:46.040 --> 0:05:50.000 we move forward here, these different pieces will will really 0:05:50.040 --> 0:05:54.040 help us um timing wise within the offense when teams 0:05:54.040 --> 0:05:55.839 decide to take one or two guys away, we have 0:05:55.880 --> 0:05:58.599 so many different pieces where we can step up and produce, 0:05:58.680 --> 0:06:00.479 put points on the board and and come out with 0:06:00.480 --> 0:06:02.760 a win. What do you want the run game to 0:06:02.800 --> 0:06:05.800 look like? Well, we just need to we need to 0:06:05.880 --> 0:06:08.080 be able to get more yards per carry. So our 0:06:08.360 --> 0:06:10.640 average is down right now, We're just not averaging a 0:06:10.640 --> 0:06:13.479 whole lot of yards in the rush game. And um 0:06:14.000 --> 0:06:17.279 and and that will come. UM this this isn't the 0:06:17.279 --> 0:06:19.640 first time that I've been through this. It's really not 0:06:19.720 --> 0:06:22.520 so uh. You know, as as a coaching staff, we'll 0:06:22.520 --> 0:06:25.599 put a good plan together. We'll figure out the why part. Um, 0:06:26.000 --> 0:06:28.360 that's that's the fun part, that's the challenging part. And 0:06:28.400 --> 0:06:31.240 so we'll we'll put our heads together, we'll figure out 0:06:31.279 --> 0:06:33.840 what's best for us, and and we'll stay positive. I 0:06:33.880 --> 0:06:36.000 think that's the biggest thing you need to do, is uh, 0:06:36.279 --> 0:06:39.560 you never panic. You just keep rolling and you stay persistent. 0:06:40.120 --> 0:06:42.799 Um And and I love the one of my favorite phrases, 0:06:42.920 --> 0:06:45.360 persistence of a resistance. I love it. And so that's 0:06:45.360 --> 0:06:48.080 what we're gonna do with that run game. And it's 0:06:48.160 --> 0:06:50.400 not because of one person, whether that's a running back 0:06:50.480 --> 0:06:53.760 or an offensive lineman or whoever. Uh, it's all of us, 0:06:53.760 --> 0:06:56.240 and we'll get it fixed. And with that being said, 0:06:56.279 --> 0:06:58.240 you know, even going back to Kareem Hunt last year, 0:06:58.800 --> 0:07:00.839 I think there were ten out of his fifteen games 0:07:01.720 --> 0:07:05.480 his carries went way up in the second half of games. Yeah, 0:07:05.520 --> 0:07:07.640 and that's that's a lot that that's kind of how 0:07:08.000 --> 0:07:11.760 this offense is built, where you go ahead and a 0:07:11.760 --> 0:07:13.920 lot of times you'll get you'll get out in front 0:07:13.960 --> 0:07:16.280 with the passing game and then you finish the game 0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:18.800 off with the run game. And that happened a lot 0:07:18.840 --> 0:07:20.679 last year with Kareem. There's a lot of games early 0:07:20.680 --> 0:07:22.160 on in the year where he didn't get a lot 0:07:22.200 --> 0:07:24.240 of his touches and a lot of his yards until 0:07:24.280 --> 0:07:26.320 the end of the game in four minute where he'd 0:07:26.360 --> 0:07:29.680 break a few and and so, um, you know, I 0:07:30.040 --> 0:07:33.960 just I just know that for myself, I still have 0:07:34.040 --> 0:07:38.800 extreme confidence and everybody everybody that's associated with that, and uh, 0:07:38.840 --> 0:07:40.200 like I said, you do need to be able to 0:07:40.280 --> 0:07:43.440 run the ball, and uh, you know, I don't want 0:07:43.440 --> 0:07:45.240 to be the guy that sits back there and and 0:07:45.600 --> 0:07:47.720 calls fifty pass plays in a game because you're two 0:07:47.720 --> 0:07:50.440 one dimensional. And now when you get behind fourteen points, 0:07:50.800 --> 0:07:54.720 you're you're forced to do You're forced to twelve passes 0:07:54.840 --> 0:07:58.080 extra on top of that. But um, you'd like to 0:07:58.240 --> 0:08:00.080 be too early on. You'd like to be able to 0:08:00.080 --> 0:08:02.000 get a few more yards percarry. Is the breaking point 0:08:02.000 --> 0:08:03.600 at two score game or does it have to be 0:08:03.720 --> 0:08:06.400 to you a two touchdown game? No, it depends on 0:08:06.480 --> 0:08:08.480 where it's out in the game. You know, if it's 0:08:08.480 --> 0:08:10.840 fourteen points in the fourth quarter, you need to you 0:08:10.880 --> 0:08:13.280 need to get those possessions back up, so well you 0:08:13.400 --> 0:08:17.360 normally go hurry. The Bears Coaches Show with head coach 0:08:17.440 --> 0:08:21.800 Mad Maggie and w bbm's Jeff Joiac continues snap his back, 0:08:22.760 --> 0:08:25.640 Trabiski rolling it was right. Here comes the pressure, tries 0:08:25.640 --> 0:08:28.120 to obey circles all the way back to his thirty 0:08:28.400 --> 0:08:30.240 look at a set of street Now he's gonna keep 0:08:30.320 --> 0:08:34.040 left twenty fifteen ten five with a block part. He 0:08:34.240 --> 0:08:38.560 is in for the touch style. Cody white Hair leading away, 0:08:38.840 --> 0:08:42.280 blew up his defender and the Bears hair the lead 0:08:42.840 --> 0:08:46.400 nine seven, the air heat soldier field. That was exciting. 0:08:46.480 --> 0:08:50.640 And when your quarterbacksmen around like fran Tarkenton or Michael Vick, 0:08:50.880 --> 0:08:53.000 because that's what it looked like a little bit coach. 0:08:53.080 --> 0:08:55.800 Now you're back on the Coaches Show. The part I 0:08:55.840 --> 0:08:59.000 loved Cody white Hair saying come on, you know, signaling him, 0:08:59.040 --> 0:09:01.079 come on follow me. He just blew up that dB 0:09:01.200 --> 0:09:03.440 in the end zone. But that was fun. That was 0:09:03.480 --> 0:09:06.240 fun to watch. Yeah, it's it's uh, that's another weapon 0:09:06.280 --> 0:09:09.760 that Mitch has and and so if something's not there 0:09:09.400 --> 0:09:12.920 in the passing game, he's able to extend to play 0:09:12.960 --> 0:09:14.600 with his legs and you saw a little bit of 0:09:14.600 --> 0:09:17.439 that yesterday. Um, and he'll be the first to tell 0:09:17.480 --> 0:09:19.200 you that that's not something that he's looking to do. 0:09:19.600 --> 0:09:21.760 But if teams are going to play his specific coverages 0:09:21.840 --> 0:09:23.920 that enable him to do that, then he'll do that. 0:09:24.000 --> 0:09:26.680 And you saw evidence of that yesterday with making a 0:09:26.679 --> 0:09:29.080 good play and then of course, uh with Cody leading 0:09:29.120 --> 0:09:30.719 him on in there in the end zone. Was pretty cool. 0:09:30.840 --> 0:09:33.120 So now he's second in the NFL and Russian yards 0:09:33.240 --> 0:09:36.679 quarterback behind Cam Newton. Yeah, two hundred forty five yards. Um, 0:09:37.360 --> 0:09:39.439 you take what you take, right, Sure, it doesn't it 0:09:39.480 --> 0:09:41.800 doesn't bother you, right, No, not at all. I tell 0:09:41.840 --> 0:09:45.160 you I dealt five years of that with with Alex Smith. 0:09:45.200 --> 0:09:49.240 I mean it was again he was able to especially 0:09:49.320 --> 0:09:52.040 on third down, when teams have specific coverages that they 0:09:52.120 --> 0:09:54.400 like to play, it can be a backbreaker to that 0:09:54.480 --> 0:09:56.760 defense when you scramble for a first and Mitch did 0:09:56.760 --> 0:09:59.640 that quite a few times yesterday. Yeah. Yeah. And when 0:09:59.679 --> 0:10:02.360 you do that, um, that's hard because that's just another 0:10:02.840 --> 0:10:06.640 another um uh, you know, that's somebody else for the 0:10:06.679 --> 0:10:09.520 defense they got to defend with those legs. And so 0:10:09.520 --> 0:10:11.400 when you're not throwing a football, if you can extend 0:10:11.400 --> 0:10:14.480 to play with your legs, and that's that's a benefit. So, um, 0:10:14.520 --> 0:10:16.440 he did that yesterday. We don't want to live in 0:10:16.440 --> 0:10:18.000 that world, but if they give it to us, we'll 0:10:18.000 --> 0:10:20.120 take it. So they're throwing a spy out there yesterday, 0:10:20.480 --> 0:10:22.760 you know, throughout the course of the game. From an 0:10:22.800 --> 0:10:26.560 offensive lineman's perspective, you know, because sometimes these guys just waiting. 0:10:26.960 --> 0:10:29.920 Does it cause a little concern in an offensive lineman's 0:10:29.920 --> 0:10:33.280 mind if he doesn't have if his responsibility is to 0:10:33.360 --> 0:10:35.640 keep an eye on that, when do I go? How 0:10:35.640 --> 0:10:38.360 do I stay? Is that is that a thinking process? Right? 0:10:38.640 --> 0:10:40.840 It really just depends on the play, you know. Is 0:10:40.840 --> 0:10:43.360 it a is it a naked is it a screen? 0:10:43.559 --> 0:10:46.200 Is it a drop back? Is it a run? Um? 0:10:46.280 --> 0:10:48.400 And the times sometimes where that can get you if 0:10:48.400 --> 0:10:51.560 it's a screen. For instance, yesterday we had one. We're 0:10:51.640 --> 0:10:53.600 on third down. We called a screen to Tarik and 0:10:54.000 --> 0:10:56.800 they had a spy. Uh and they only rush three 0:10:56.840 --> 0:10:59.679 and and so you know, Mitch had to dirt at 0:11:00.080 --> 0:11:02.840 his feet and um. And so that was a good call, 0:11:03.000 --> 0:11:05.640 a defensive call by them. But other than that, no, 0:11:05.720 --> 0:11:07.360 it doesn't affect him too much. They're able to go 0:11:07.360 --> 0:11:09.000 out there and play. All right, let's sound a little 0:11:09.040 --> 0:11:13.480 little defense. But on Nichols keeps making place. Um yeah, 0:11:13.559 --> 0:11:15.560 I think it was the most snaps he played all 0:11:15.559 --> 0:11:20.680 season yesterday. It's just an explosiveness about him. He's earned 0:11:20.679 --> 0:11:23.480 it obviously on the practice field to get to Sunday, 0:11:23.520 --> 0:11:26.880 but the confidence seems to be just skyrocketing. He was 0:11:26.920 --> 0:11:29.480 one of the first guys on our post game we interviewed, 0:11:29.480 --> 0:11:31.560 and he's talked like a veteran now, yeah, about the 0:11:31.559 --> 0:11:34.880 game and about what's next. Sure, now he's a like 0:11:34.920 --> 0:11:37.200 you said, I mean, he is playing fast, He's playing 0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:40.559 at a high level, especially for being a rookie US. 0:11:40.679 --> 0:11:44.040 You can see his confidence in himself within the scheme 0:11:44.160 --> 0:11:46.560 is getting higher and higher each game. And he's made 0:11:46.559 --> 0:11:49.680 some big time plays now. And the play he made 0:11:49.760 --> 0:11:52.400 yesterday to be able to make that tackle, you know, 0:11:52.520 --> 0:11:56.000 get that fumble, and the way he got it kind 0:11:56.000 --> 0:11:57.880 of the way everybody was kind of falling on the ball, 0:11:58.080 --> 0:12:01.040 I thought was very impressive and you know, nice for 0:12:01.040 --> 0:12:02.640 for us to get the ball on offense and turn 0:12:02.679 --> 0:12:05.600 it into points. There was a lot of discussion about 0:12:05.720 --> 0:12:09.400 the use of your outside linebackers yesterday. Um, what did 0:12:09.400 --> 0:12:11.920 you think of that, and with Khalil, you know, there 0:12:12.120 --> 0:12:15.600 there were situations where you know, you gotta these situations, 0:12:15.600 --> 0:12:17.400 you gotta you gotta monitor it throughout the course of 0:12:17.440 --> 0:12:20.560 the game and moving forward here, yeah, well and there 0:12:20.559 --> 0:12:23.320 we did a little bit more UM drop eight in 0:12:23.360 --> 0:12:26.640 that game. Uh And and some of that is you know, 0:12:26.720 --> 0:12:29.160 schematically in regards to just some of what the game 0:12:29.160 --> 0:12:31.760 plan was with with with our defensive coaches and with 0:12:31.880 --> 0:12:35.120 vic and um, that's not the first time that does 0:12:35.160 --> 0:12:37.040 happened against Tom Brady. I mean there's a lot of 0:12:37.040 --> 0:12:40.720 reasons for that, because he gives you an extra defender. UM, 0:12:40.760 --> 0:12:42.840 you know, connecting the dots. People say, well, is it 0:12:42.880 --> 0:12:45.520 because of Khalil's ankle, and and you know he can't 0:12:45.559 --> 0:12:48.559 rush the pasture and you know, for for for us 0:12:49.080 --> 0:12:51.000 UM and what what Vick does a good job with 0:12:51.200 --> 0:12:54.760 his trying to put his players in the best situation possible. 0:12:54.760 --> 0:12:58.120 And so yesterday there was uh several more drop eights, 0:12:58.120 --> 0:13:00.440 and but there were still times where he was you know, 0:13:00.559 --> 0:13:03.400 bringing it with four and at times even more than that. 0:13:03.480 --> 0:13:07.120 And so you saw that on the interception. So I 0:13:07.160 --> 0:13:10.360 think as games go by, you'll see different UM game 0:13:10.360 --> 0:13:12.800 plans from him, and then we just got to monitor 0:13:13.200 --> 0:13:16.120 Khalil's ankle, you know. And you have your hands full 0:13:16.120 --> 0:13:19.959 obviously with so much. Have you learned a lot about 0:13:20.040 --> 0:13:23.520 defense this year? Yeah? Yeah, I have. And it's neat. 0:13:23.559 --> 0:13:26.720 It's neat seeing kind of just his style of what 0:13:26.760 --> 0:13:29.720 he believes in and and um, the different types of 0:13:30.120 --> 0:13:32.719 zone pressures that he has and whether it's man or 0:13:33.240 --> 0:13:36.120 a shell, coverage Cover two or Cover four when he 0:13:36.200 --> 0:13:38.760 is gonna heat you up with cover zero. Uh, and 0:13:38.800 --> 0:13:42.000 then bouncing, you know, being able to talk football, you know, 0:13:42.200 --> 0:13:45.040 x's and os. He might ask me a question vice versa, 0:13:45.240 --> 0:13:47.960 and I think that that's good. I give him a 0:13:48.000 --> 0:13:50.240 perspective from the offensive side, and he gives me a 0:13:50.280 --> 0:13:55.160 perspective from their side. No more of the Bears Coaching 0:13:55.240 --> 0:13:58.600 Show with head coach Matt Maggie on news Waydio seven 0:13:58.679 --> 0:14:02.280 eighty and one oh five point nine FM w BBM. 0:14:02.400 --> 0:14:04.680 As Trubisky goes to work Burton one hundred and fifteen 0:14:04.760 --> 0:14:07.800 yards of receiving his first one hundred yard game. Going 0:14:07.840 --> 0:14:11.840 to the right up, Trubisky takes the snap sets to 0:14:11.920 --> 0:14:18.480 throw winds up right Sidns touchdown, Burton, touchdown, Bears thirty 0:14:18.520 --> 0:14:22.840 eight thirty New England. Burton ninth catch defender fell down 0:14:22.960 --> 0:14:25.800 wide open pitch and catch Trubisky gets him on the 0:14:25.840 --> 0:14:29.280 board or touchdown of the season. For Trey Burton, he's 0:14:29.320 --> 0:14:31.960 making the most of his opportunities with the Bears and 0:14:32.080 --> 0:14:34.640 enjoying it. He said after the game met middle of 0:14:34.680 --> 0:14:37.200 the field is open. I just took what they gave me. Yeah, 0:14:37.240 --> 0:14:39.400 he did. He played well yesterday and it was good 0:14:39.400 --> 0:14:42.720 to see that connection going and uh, you know, they 0:14:42.760 --> 0:14:44.680 were they were going ahead and trying to take away 0:14:44.720 --> 0:14:47.320 some other guys throughout that game, and it opened up 0:14:47.320 --> 0:14:49.200 some good stuff for Trey. He won his one on 0:14:49.200 --> 0:14:52.320 one matchup throughout the game and it was good to 0:14:52.360 --> 0:14:55.160 see him get on track there with Mitchell and hopefully 0:14:55.240 --> 0:14:57.440 keep that thing going. So you watched the tape and 0:14:57.440 --> 0:14:59.560 you thought about it overnight, We'll gave you a stomach 0:14:59.560 --> 0:15:06.000 ache anything, Well, just you know, ultimately, you just we've 0:15:06.040 --> 0:15:08.120 worked so hard and there's just so many hours that 0:15:08.160 --> 0:15:10.400 go into a players and coaches and you know, to 0:15:10.760 --> 0:15:13.360 get to get to this point right now where we're at. 0:15:13.480 --> 0:15:14.880 You know, you want to come away with the win, 0:15:15.040 --> 0:15:18.120 and there's there's no uh, there's nothing else that matters. 0:15:18.520 --> 0:15:20.920 We really don't care about any of the stats or numbers, 0:15:20.960 --> 0:15:25.200 and we just we want to win. And um, I've 0:15:25.240 --> 0:15:27.640 explained to the team that it is a very long season, 0:15:28.080 --> 0:15:30.600 um and and that we got a ways to go 0:15:30.720 --> 0:15:33.320 and now we're getting challenged here, and so how are 0:15:33.360 --> 0:15:35.560 we going to react? Are we gonna stick together? Are 0:15:35.560 --> 0:15:37.680 we're gonna pull apart? And I think I have a 0:15:37.680 --> 0:15:40.160 pretty good idea of because of who we are and 0:15:40.200 --> 0:15:43.160 the way we work, that we'll stick together. We'll become 0:15:43.200 --> 0:15:47.080 tighter because of this, and we'll grow stronger and uh, 0:15:47.440 --> 0:15:49.400 and go ahead and give our best effort next week. 0:15:49.520 --> 0:15:52.080 Can I ask you something about that? You've said it 0:15:52.160 --> 0:15:55.360 every time that the team has suffered a setback or 0:15:55.600 --> 0:15:59.040 something to overcome about staying together. What wouldever lead you 0:15:59.080 --> 0:16:02.680 to believe they wouldn't? Well, I mean, there's it comes 0:16:02.680 --> 0:16:09.400 down to responsibility, accountability, UM, selfish players and not selfless players. 0:16:09.480 --> 0:16:12.440 And we're we have a team full of high character guys. 0:16:12.600 --> 0:16:15.480 And that's something that Ryan and I discussed when we 0:16:15.720 --> 0:16:18.840 decided to do this thing. And Ryan works that way 0:16:18.880 --> 0:16:22.040 and he knows that I worked that way, and so UM, 0:16:22.720 --> 0:16:26.920 you you try to build the team with good people, 0:16:27.200 --> 0:16:31.000 and um, it's really hard to go and defeated. And 0:16:31.080 --> 0:16:34.360 so when things don't go great, how do you react 0:16:34.360 --> 0:16:37.560 to it? Um? Is it the offense is fault? Is it? 0:16:37.640 --> 0:16:39.960 The defensive fault? Is a special teams when you're a 0:16:39.960 --> 0:16:42.880 team that just accepts responsibility and start and looks into 0:16:42.920 --> 0:16:45.680 mirror and starts with yourself and you you you bring 0:16:45.680 --> 0:16:48.240 it on and you understand why why it happened or 0:16:48.240 --> 0:16:50.720 why you lost, and vice versa. When you win, you 0:16:50.720 --> 0:16:52.960 don't think it's all you. You You know, you understand it 0:16:53.040 --> 0:16:56.800 your teammates, UM, and you ride that thing through the 0:16:57.120 --> 0:16:59.840 sixteen games that you play together. Hopefully then you make 0:16:59.880 --> 0:17:02.400 the playoffs and now you use all those experiences from 0:17:02.440 --> 0:17:06.120 those sixteen games, all of those different challenges that you had, 0:17:06.200 --> 0:17:08.879 good and bad, to help you in the playoffs. So 0:17:09.080 --> 0:17:12.200 is your radar always up? Always? And if you see 0:17:12.280 --> 0:17:16.000 something that doesn't look right, you feel you have to 0:17:16.040 --> 0:17:19.119 address it immediately before it festers? For sure? Yeah, you 0:17:19.200 --> 0:17:24.400 need to. And when when that usually happens is when 0:17:24.920 --> 0:17:28.760 a losing streak occurs to where it just gets it 0:17:28.800 --> 0:17:31.760 gets long and monotonous, and they feel like they're hearing 0:17:31.760 --> 0:17:35.000 the same message. And so that's where you have to 0:17:35.000 --> 0:17:37.960 do everything you possibly can to to understand it. You know, 0:17:38.000 --> 0:17:40.639 we've lost two in a row, and it's really not 0:17:40.680 --> 0:17:42.600 the end of the world. It's really not where We've 0:17:42.640 --> 0:17:46.080 played six games, we've lost two in a row, and 0:17:46.119 --> 0:17:48.239 we've also won three in a row. So when we 0:17:48.240 --> 0:17:49.760 were winning three in a row, it's the same thing 0:17:49.800 --> 0:17:53.119 as staying even kiel not thinking we're too good. So, um, 0:17:53.680 --> 0:17:56.280 I feel like we're built for these type of situations. 0:17:57.320 --> 0:18:00.720 We understand how to handle adversity, at least I think 0:18:00.760 --> 0:18:02.840 we do. And now we'll see as we go, and 0:18:02.880 --> 0:18:05.400 we won't know the final answer of this question until 0:18:05.400 --> 0:18:07.040 we get to the end of the season. Oh we're done, 0:18:07.119 --> 0:18:08.800 Kevin and White, before we take a quick look at 0:18:08.800 --> 0:18:13.120 the Jets and let you go for the evening snaps 0:18:13.119 --> 0:18:15.800 have increased the past few weeks. He had his first 0:18:15.840 --> 0:18:19.359 targets of the year in this game, including the Hail Mary. 0:18:20.160 --> 0:18:22.840 But I heard him in a postgame interview on Fox 0:18:23.680 --> 0:18:26.600 yesterday and he said he had changed his mindset two 0:18:26.600 --> 0:18:29.119 weeks ago. You know what the depth of that is 0:18:29.160 --> 0:18:33.240 and what may have precipitated that for Kevin, well for him, 0:18:33.359 --> 0:18:36.920 for Kevin, you know, he's been through. He's been through 0:18:36.960 --> 0:18:40.280 some adversity himself, you know, mentally just in his situation 0:18:40.320 --> 0:18:41.800 and what he's been through here with the team the 0:18:41.840 --> 0:18:44.120 last couple of years and health wise and everything. So 0:18:44.760 --> 0:18:46.919 now it's a new head coach, there's a lot of 0:18:46.960 --> 0:18:49.600 new players, and it's a new system, and so that 0:18:49.600 --> 0:18:52.600 that's a challenge. And you know, I think what he's 0:18:52.640 --> 0:18:56.240 done is he's become selfless in the last couple of 0:18:56.280 --> 0:19:01.240 weeks and realized that whether it's taken scout team reps 0:19:01.359 --> 0:19:04.159 in practice or whether it's making an extra block in 0:19:04.200 --> 0:19:07.720 the game to spring somebody open. Um, that he's being 0:19:07.760 --> 0:19:10.640 patient right now. And I love that about Kevin. He's 0:19:11.000 --> 0:19:13.920 a great person, um, with a lot of talent, and 0:19:13.960 --> 0:19:16.320 we're just trying to figure out with everybody else that 0:19:16.400 --> 0:19:19.480 we have, how we can put it together. Uh. For 0:19:19.640 --> 0:19:21.800 that that helps both of us, himself and us as 0:19:21.840 --> 0:19:25.000 a team. And so usually things always happen for a reason. 0:19:25.320 --> 0:19:29.200 And uh, I don't know when his time is coming, 0:19:29.400 --> 0:19:34.320 but I do appreciate him, um, you know, really having 0:19:34.320 --> 0:19:35.959 a lot of respect for our team and for his 0:19:36.000 --> 0:19:38.320 teammates and coming out and working hard every day. All right, 0:19:38.359 --> 0:19:40.920 quick look at the Jets three and four. Sam Donald, 0:19:41.119 --> 0:19:43.240 you certainly uh yeah, you know, you know what he 0:19:43.280 --> 0:19:45.119 did in college and once he's done early on. And 0:19:45.480 --> 0:19:47.840 and their defense, their defense with a defensive minor head 0:19:47.880 --> 0:19:51.280
