- 2:03SPEAKER_06: I referee football, man.
- 2:05SPEAKER_06: You know, check it out tomorrow.
- 2:07SPEAKER_06: I'll tell you about what happened last Friday.
- 2:09SPEAKER_06: Check it out.
- 2:14SPEAKER_03: You know, I uh I saw last night Caleb was the one edging him on to do his stanky leg or whatever you want to call it, or the other uh scary legs.
- 2:24SPEAKER_03: It's it's more like the Jerry Lewis legs.
- 2:30SPEAKER_06: No, hey, not the jet, it more it's more like the Pee Wee Herman.
- 2:34SPEAKER_06: It's close to the Pee Wee Herman, man.
- 2:37SPEAKER_06: That thing is bad.
- 2:39SPEAKER_06: But hey, that if that's what gets them motivated, hey, whatever, whatever it takes, you know, it's all good.
- 2:48SPEAKER_06: Man, let's let's talk about the game, man.
- 2:50SPEAKER_06: We all quiet, man.
- 2:53SPEAKER_05: I forgot how good it feels to have a defense that actually hits people in the mouth.
- 3:00SPEAKER_05: I knew it was gonna be a different game after that first series on third down.
- 3:05SPEAKER_05: Cam Lewis put the uh beat the brakes off that receiver, and I said, Oh, it looked like we came to play football.
- 3:13SPEAKER_05: Here's an interesting stat that I've been reading about the Bears.
- 3:18SPEAKER_05: Since Caleb Williams came back, the score in the games, the Bears have led for one minute, one hour and 58 minutes.
- 3:27SPEAKER_05: Yep.
- 3:28SPEAKER_05: They either score first and don't give up the lead, or you know, that that's that's pretty good, man.
- 3:34SPEAKER_05: Um Jeffrey Simmons, what that dude was doing, man, all of a sudden you had you had a bunch of guys that looked like the Pittsburgh steel curtain, didn't you?
- 3:45SPEAKER_02: Well, I'm thinking about one thing about last night, one thing about last night, you could tell the energy that the Bears had.
- 3:53SPEAKER_02: And I wanna say it was because of Jeffrey Sam, uh uh or Jeffrey Simmons.
- 4:00SPEAKER_02: But like you said, playing, that hit that first hit on that drive set the tone for the entire game.
- 4:09SPEAKER_02: Because at that time, the Bears came out with a 17-play drive and scored a touchdown, which was the first touchdown scored on the first drive against the Seattle Seahawks in 16 games.
- 4:26SPEAKER_06: Yeah, that's a that's an interesting fact.
- 4:28SPEAKER_02: They set the tone.
- 4:29SPEAKER_02: I'm gonna give you another stat.
- 4:31SPEAKER_02: This guy just got traded here Wednesday when he was on the field last night.
- 4:39SPEAKER_02: The Seattle Seahawks averaged three yards per play.
- 4:45SPEAKER_02: When he was off the field last night, they averaged 13.
- 4:50SPEAKER_01: We do our homework.
- 4:53SPEAKER_01: We do our homework.
- 4:54SPEAKER_01: What what so this dude is a 10-yard difference when he's on the plate, when he's on the field in his first game, yeah, that's real.
- 5:06SPEAKER_06: Now, on the other side of that, his homeboy, his ace boon coon, his Mississippi State teammate should have got PED tested last night.
- 5:18SPEAKER_06: This was the week you PED tested, dude, because Montez Sweat basically had two sacks, one of them got called back because of a penalty, and he had three quarterback pressures.
- 5:30SPEAKER_06: This dude came to play, and number 99 has changed the atmosphere in the defensive line room, just like that.
- 5:40SPEAKER_06: We were when when you had sweat, Simmons, Jarrett, and Booker, you didn't have to send pressure because they was in there.
- 5:50SPEAKER_06: Yep, yeah so that was the play that I was talking about last night, Jay.
- 5:53SPEAKER_06: When I was like, Man, you ain't even have to send all them people, man.
- 5:55SPEAKER_06: They was they was already, you know, Sam Darnold was scary anyway.
- 5:59SPEAKER_06: Anyway, it showed in the game because he just started throwing the ball everywhere, right?
- 6:06SPEAKER_06: And so you didn't have to send all them people at one time.
- 6:10SPEAKER_05: Hey, I'll tell you what, uh Kyler Gordon put a hit on him on that first series, too.
- 6:16SPEAKER_05: So they distributed those licks uh by all of the guys on the doggone defense.
- 6:21SPEAKER_05: Uh how many people are gonna be talking about draft picks and the number of draft picks that we gave up for for Simmons?
- 6:30SPEAKER_05: I have I've already forgot about it.
- 6:31SPEAKER_05: Y'all can have that.
- 6:32SPEAKER_06: I'm gonna send enough 99.
- 6:35SPEAKER_06: We should we we didn't send enough.
- 6:37SPEAKER_06: We should have sent them a box of snickers too.
- 6:40SPEAKER_06: We should have got a box of snippers in that trade, too, man.
- 6:43SPEAKER_06: Like, man, we didn't send enough.
- 6:44SPEAKER_06: I'm like, man, we we only gave up two first rounds.
- 6:48SPEAKER_06: Think about this.
- 6:49SPEAKER_06: He's playing in place of Javon Dexter, right?
- 6:55SPEAKER_02: Defensively, yes, defensively, yes, yeah, right.
- 6:58SPEAKER_05: Two weeks ago, everybody was talking about how we lost that trade.
- 7:02SPEAKER_05: We lost Javon Dexter, right?
- 7:03SPEAKER_05: Gave him X amount of money.
- 7:05SPEAKER_05: I'm like, I don't think so.
- 7:06SPEAKER_06: Yeah, hey, listen when everybody was talking about Max Crosby coming to Chicago.
- 7:12SPEAKER_06: I was saying we need Jeffrey Simmons, we need to figure out how we can get Jeffrey Simmons here.
- 7:18SPEAKER_06: Skip, we got Booker, we got sweat, get Jeffrey Simmons here in the middle, stop the run, create havoc up the middle to let the ends run free.
- 7:28SPEAKER_06: Now we're seeing that quick nose football.
- 7:32SPEAKER_03: You know what?
- 7:32SPEAKER_03: I think one of the reasons that he wouldn't have been on uh they would have traded him before the season, which was a great point.
- 7:38SPEAKER_03: I do remember you mentioning because the season has started.
- 7:42SPEAKER_03: They traded him now because they know they suck, right?
- 7:45SPEAKER_03: And it's like right who know they suck, right?
- 7:49SPEAKER_03: Right, only teams who have know they suck now are the teams who are starting to have a fire sale, like the Colts and some of them who are kind of like, Man, but Simmons made a difference on this team.
- 8:01SPEAKER_03: Uh, like Jay said, the energy was real high, and man, it looked like man, I it was like the bears was on steroids, you know, last night.
- 8:10SPEAKER_03: The whole team, I mean, at the speed that they was playing at, it was like high school versus college players, how fast they were moving, and you mentioned the speed.
- 8:20SPEAKER_02: I don't know if y'all remember how we would do this show after a Bears game, and I would say, like, I'm watching everybody else, everybody seemed like they're so much faster than us last night.
- 8:36SPEAKER_03: I remember you saying that a lot, Jay.
- 8:38SPEAKER_02: You've been saying that a lot over there that that uh Khalif Raymond play, oh the the burst of speech.
- 8:46SPEAKER_02: I was like, this is what everybody else has been doing to us, and now we got that.
- 8:52SPEAKER_02: Now we have that on our team, the distribution of the football, and I'm telling y'all, Roma Dunze, y'all can say what y'all want.
- 9:05SPEAKER_02: I've been pining for this dude ever since he's been here.
- 9:08SPEAKER_02: He plays the most difficult position in this past offense, and can't nobody do it like him.
- 9:17SPEAKER_02: And as long as Caleb is on the field, he knows that, and he's going to find him.
- 9:23SPEAKER_02: And when he finds him, he's gonna put the ball on him.
- 9:26SPEAKER_02: Roma Doze had a these last three games since Caleb been back, Roma Dose is showing y'all why he was drafted number nine in the first round of the draft.
- 9:38SPEAKER_05: Hey, I just wanted to I just wanted to stop real quick and give a shout out and give some flowers to Quick, uh, because four years ago we were having this doggone conver conversation, and somebody kept saying Trust Trust the process.
- 9:56SPEAKER_05: My man, good job, trust the process, man.
- 10:02SPEAKER_06: The process looks real good right now.
- 10:04SPEAKER_06: Yes, it does.
- 10:05SPEAKER_06: Yes, yes, it does.
- 10:07SPEAKER_06: Yeah, man.
- 10:09SPEAKER_06: Hey, did y'all see?
- 10:13SPEAKER_03: Oh, say I'm sorry, quick.
- 10:14SPEAKER_03: Go ahead.
- 10:15SPEAKER_06: No, I was just gonna say that Caleb Williams and Roma Dunze repeated the play that they did last week, the back shoulder throw.
- 10:22SPEAKER_05: Yeah, they actually did, right?
- 10:24SPEAKER_06: Wait a minute, yeah.
- 10:26SPEAKER_05: Oh yeah, well, what is it about Roma Doomsday?
- 10:29SPEAKER_05: Is the second half automatically his time and he giving the first half to Luther Burton?
- 10:34SPEAKER_05: Is that how that's working out?
- 10:36SPEAKER_02: If you look, if you if you study the tape, Roma Dunes, they do a lot of blocking in the first half, yeah.
- 10:46SPEAKER_02: They try to get back to the ball.
- 10:47SPEAKER_02: He does a lot of blocking because they the bears are trying to run the football on the ball.
- 10:52SPEAKER_02: Shout out to Ben Johnson last night.
- 10:55SPEAKER_02: I think he coached his best game as a Bears coach last night.
- 10:59SPEAKER_02: And Swift, even when he gave him the game ball last night, he was like, Thanks for sticking with the run.
- 11:06SPEAKER_02: He had 26 carries, he only had what 69 yards?
- 11:11SPEAKER_02: 69 yards.
- 11:12SPEAKER_02: He had 69 yards, but he had 26 carries.
- 11:15SPEAKER_02: But they knew Ben knew, in order for them to be successful on offense, he could not abandon the running game.
- 11:24SPEAKER_02: And those one-yard, two-yard carries, later on in the game, they started becoming three-yard carries and four-yard carries.
- 11:34SPEAKER_02: You gotta stick to the game plan.
- 11:36SPEAKER_02: And I think Ben Johnson called his best game as an offensive coordinator and head coach last night.
- 11:42SPEAKER_02: He took points when he was supposed to, and he put points on the board because as we say all the time, points are a premium, especially when you're on the road.
- 11:54SPEAKER_02: So, man, shout out last night.
- 11:56SPEAKER_02: Last night was like I say, I watched the entire game standing up.
- 12:00SPEAKER_02: I did not sit down for three and a half hours, even at the halftime.
- 12:04SPEAKER_02: I was still I was still walking around, like, okay, what are we doing here?
- 12:10SPEAKER_02: It was something that I have not witnessed in a long time for this Bears team.
- 12:16SPEAKER_03: Yeah, hey, this is this game.
- 12:18SPEAKER_03: This game, I'm gonna kind of use a parable.
- 12:20SPEAKER_03: It is it's kind of like when you was in school, and that one dude who really thinks he's tough and he talking smack to everybody in the in the cafeteria.
- 12:28SPEAKER_03: Then he see that one person not saying something like meet me after school, and he gets out there, and then once a couple of blows get thrown, he realized he messed up.
- 12:37SPEAKER_03: That's how the bear, that's how Seattle looked.
- 12:39SPEAKER_03: If you look at even the fans, they was almost at one point, they were just like they started booing.
- 12:45SPEAKER_03: They had looks on their face, like this the bears are doing this to us.
- 12:49SPEAKER_03: I mean, the bears, even on the stuff where they was giving pressure, it was a couple of times where that one throw that he had, uh where it looked like Caleb should have been sat.
- 13:00SPEAKER_03: And he kind of came out of there.
- 13:02SPEAKER_03: It's like Seattle was kind of almost like, man, we can't believe this.
- 13:06SPEAKER_03: If you look at the end of the game, they would even try and score that last couple, that last drive.
- 13:10SPEAKER_03: They was almost like, hey, we we just want to get some positive momentum because remember the announcers was like, hey, they should probably just kick a field goal right there, do an onside to try to get Seattle.
- 13:20SPEAKER_03: Was kind of like, you know what?
- 13:21SPEAKER_03: Nah, we we just gonna run some plays to get our offense going and take some positive, you know, momentum to the next game.
- 13:28SPEAKER_03: This game is a wrap.
- 13:30SPEAKER_05: Seattle actually started out with what you would call being chippy.
- 13:34SPEAKER_05: They kept hitting the bears after the play.
- 13:37SPEAKER_05: Uh, they tried that uh offensive lineman that tried to manhandle Grady Jarrett.
- 13:42SPEAKER_05: They grabbed his face mask.
- 13:44SPEAKER_05: The Bears was just like, Look, we ain't having it.
- 13:47SPEAKER_05: We're gonna beat y'all on football.
- 13:49SPEAKER_05: If y'all want to fight, we're gonna beat you in the fight.
- 13:51SPEAKER_05: If you want to knit, we're gonna beat you knitting.
- 13:54SPEAKER_05: Whatever it is you want to do at your house, we're about to take this house over.
- 13:58SPEAKER_05: And I haven't seen the Bears uh come out there as a team, as a collective team, and perform that well in several years.
- 14:06SPEAKER_05: This is uh this is trans, you know, something I I haven't seen for years.
- 14:10SPEAKER_02: So I'm taking, I'm taking uh I've been saying all year, like this is different.
- 14:17SPEAKER_02: And last night was the night where I'm like, okay, you know what?
- 14:22SPEAKER_02: This is different, this is a different type of thing, and the Bears have put not only the NFC but the NFL on notice last night.
- 14:34SPEAKER_02: You had the Kansas City Chiefs, uh, and I said this on the on the pregame, you had the Kansas City Chiefs go in there and they scored three points with Patrick Mahomes.
- 14:44SPEAKER_02: Patrick Mahomes don't have the weapons that Caleb Williams has.
- 14:49SPEAKER_02: How many times as a Bears fan that we could talk about weapons Kansas City don't have, and we have we have weapons, and last night they were on display Costa Loveland, Luther Burton, Khalif Raymond, Roma Dunze, even Roshan Johnson put his hat on some people last night.
- 15:13SPEAKER_02: This this hey, I'm telling y'all, this could get real scary.
- 15:20SPEAKER_02: This could get real scary.
- 15:22SPEAKER_02: We got Chapba Bay next week, and then we fall into the bath.
- 15:25SPEAKER_02: And guess what happened when we come out the bath?
- 15:28SPEAKER_02: Now we got a Kyle Manon guy that's gonna be able to come back and give DeAndre Swift a little breathing room.
- 15:36SPEAKER_02: You know, we still ain't nobody even talked to Kobe Bryant.
- 15:39SPEAKER_02: They played us down for us all year.
- 15:42SPEAKER_02: He's gonna be coming back soon.
- 15:49SPEAKER_06: I was gonna say what Jay said, the NFL, you know that throughout the 17-game season, you're going to run into some injuries.
- 15:58SPEAKER_06: And it's gonna be how you can do when the when your people are injured, you're gonna lose a star here or there.
- 16:06SPEAKER_06: And it's basically how well your replacements can play until you can get your people back.
- 16:12SPEAKER_06: Now, and and as he stated, we we're gonna get just we this is what we did to them without Cal Manunga.
- 16:20SPEAKER_06: Right, right.
- 16:21SPEAKER_06: Kyle Manungai is a vital part of this offense, and so I was looking at some of the runs that Roshan had, and I was like, Man, that's Cal Manungai right there.
- 16:30SPEAKER_06: Like, you know what I'm saying?
- 16:31SPEAKER_06: Like, that's that's his ball.
- 16:33SPEAKER_06: And so even when the game got tighter, they had to put Swift back in to run more, and so really realizing it and it gives Swift a break, but it's not really a break because now you're featuring another dude who's a stud in the NFL, right?
- 16:53SPEAKER_06: So you had the game plan.
- 16:55SPEAKER_06: I said this a couple weeks ago.
- 16:57SPEAKER_06: Who are you trying to stop?
- 16:59SPEAKER_06: Who you trying to stop?
- 17:01SPEAKER_06: And and and we don't have we're doing this to people without DJ Moore, people.
- 17:15SPEAKER_06: We're doing this to people without DJ Moore.
- 17:18SPEAKER_06: We don't need all those.
- 17:19SPEAKER_06: I'm we don't need we don't need all those special backyard plays.
- 17:25SPEAKER_06: One thing that you notice about this quarterback is that he's willing to take the check down.
- 17:31SPEAKER_06: Another interesting stat: the Bears had 121 yards after catch yesterday.
- 17:39SPEAKER_06: Yak.
- 17:40SPEAKER_06: One 21.
- 17:42SPEAKER_06: Yes indeed.
- 17:44SPEAKER_06: So we we don't have to throw the ball to the end zone or every play.
- 17:48SPEAKER_06: And you you out there, I I play defense, and you like, all right, I got him, but dang, you threw the ball to him.
- 17:55SPEAKER_06: Now you focus on him.
- 17:56SPEAKER_06: Dang, he's throwing the ball to him.
- 17:58SPEAKER_06: That's it's like we gotta stop the offense, and I don't see many people doing it.
- 18:05SPEAKER_06: Hey, hey guys, just so you know, I had the bears to score 32 points.
- 18:09SPEAKER_03: If you look at the thing, and if you look at 32, 32-25, Jay had them 24-22, Plank had them 24-17, I had them 30 to 18, guy had them 31-21.
- 18:29SPEAKER_03: Somebody had like 45 to uh 45.
- 18:33SPEAKER_03: I ain't going crazy now.
- 18:36SPEAKER_02: That was the ghost of Mike Dick or something, man.
- 18:39SPEAKER_02: See, the beauty, the beauty of this offense, when you look at it, the route concepts are so sexy, and that's the word I use because it's it's just so sexy, and you look, and how many times did he throw the wrong dunze yesterday?
- 19:02SPEAKER_02: And this dude, there wasn't a defender five yards near him because the route concept that in in in this offense is so sexy, until it's like even the pastor called command, uh, not called command, uh coastin lovelin.
- 19:22SPEAKER_02: You know, even the quick routes, you'd be like, this is wide open.
- 19:28SPEAKER_05: I I tell you what, Jay, what got me is that I think it was the second drive that the Bears were making, and they were in a hurry up.
- 19:37SPEAKER_05: They were you know, they had Brandon Ball with Roshan Johnson, and all of the linemen were like, All right, let's go again, again.
- 19:44SPEAKER_05: And they were communicating with each other that they were gonna run the same play again.
- 19:48SPEAKER_05: Yep, yep.
- 19:48SPEAKER_05: And he ended up having a pass away with bootleg and threw it to Luther Burton.
- 19:55SPEAKER_05: Everybody on Seattle was like, Yeah, he comes to run, he comes to run.
- 20:00SPEAKER_05: They weren't in the same plate, so they were in the same plate.
- 20:02SPEAKER_05: They they needed an Academy Award as well as a football award or whatever for that because all of them did the same thing, and that reminded me of a couple years ago when Ben Johnson was with Detroit and they made it look like they stumbled and they stumble pass against the bear.
- 20:19SPEAKER_02: Stumble fumble, yep, yep, yeah.
- 20:21SPEAKER_02: But they all ran up to the line, they all ran up to the line doing like this, which indicates like we we finna run the same play, whether we're gonna run the same play on the right side or left side, we run in the same play, and it was a pass.
- 20:32SPEAKER_02: Not just that, they said it too.
- 20:35SPEAKER_05: They said it same play, same play.
- 20:36SPEAKER_03: I was like, oh wow, it it's it's incredible, man.
- 20:39SPEAKER_03: So they ran, they ran a uh a dummy reload, right?
- 20:43SPEAKER_03: Where it was uh they were saying we reload the play, but it was actually a dummy call, right?
- 20:48SPEAKER_03: So they all knew that this was a dummy recall play.
- 20:50SPEAKER_03: But I almost want to spouse on what you just said, uh, a few uh comments back on DJ Moore.
- 20:57SPEAKER_03: And great player, great player.
- 20:59SPEAKER_03: Not to take nothing from him.
- 21:01SPEAKER_03: The bears can make runs it runs more fluid without DJ, it runs more fluid because you're you're not pressing about he's not he didn't get these many catches.
- 21:13SPEAKER_03: See, even us as fans, we're not sweating that.
- 21:16SPEAKER_03: See, we'd have been sweating that this year.
- 21:18SPEAKER_03: DJ needs to be based off his salary, he needs to get more involved, but he's able to, and that's pressure off the quarterback.
- 21:26SPEAKER_03: He's able to take who's open versus like okay, let's run a couple of in arounds, let's go a couple bubble screens to make sure.
- 21:33SPEAKER_03: And if you to me, what I've noticed this year, uh you don't see these weird misses by Caleb that always used to say they were 90% of them was to DJ Moore.
- 21:46SPEAKER_03: Well, you'll see a miss and you like somebody's not on the wrong page, but you didn't see it with a lot of the other players.
- 21:53SPEAKER_03: If you saw something like, you know, maybe in front of a guy over over a guy's head, that's different, but where it would be like five yards off.
- 22:00SPEAKER_03: Maybe he turned you, and I used to say because him and DJ don't have enough time after practice or whatever it may be, the off-season stuff.
- 22:11SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 22:11SPEAKER_03: So that's a big difference.
- 22:12SPEAKER_03: But I'm glad to see the Bears to bring this much excitement and to bully the bully, and you beat them after you just beat the team uh that was in the Super Bowl the week before, and after they just bullied Patrick Mahomes now, right?
- 22:30SPEAKER_03: They just bullied them.
- 22:31SPEAKER_03: Well, they only got three points.
- 22:33SPEAKER_03: Three points.
- 22:36SPEAKER_03: And I'm gonna bring this up.
- 22:37SPEAKER_03: Y'all could gonna jump in.
- 22:38SPEAKER_03: I just want to bring something on the screen to show y'all the uh points by uh previous uh teams that played the Bears.
- 22:47SPEAKER_03: I mean a points, but what other quarterbacks did this year.
- 22:51SPEAKER_05: Wow.
- 22:56SPEAKER_03: And Caleb is 247.
- 23:00SPEAKER_03: And think about this.
- 23:03SPEAKER_03: They had a pass play that didn't even count for what was that?
- 23:06SPEAKER_03: Um the the play to um 714.
- 23:12SPEAKER_03: What's his name?
- 23:12SPEAKER_03: I forget his name.
- 23:13SPEAKER_03: Kalif Raymond.
- 23:14SPEAKER_02: Khalid Raymond.
- 23:15SPEAKER_02: That was that was counted as a run play.
- 23:17SPEAKER_02: That was a 39-yard run play.
- 23:19SPEAKER_02: It was, it was behind the behind the yeah, that was a 39-yard run play.
- 23:24SPEAKER_02: So he would have been well over 300 or close to 300 with that play.
- 23:31SPEAKER_02: Had that been a uh a pass.
- 23:33SPEAKER_02: Yeah, right.
- 23:34SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 23:35SPEAKER_05: Well, the funny thing about the Bears, you know, they're talking about at the end of the games, they are dominating so completely, they're going in the victory formation.
- 23:44SPEAKER_05: So those extra yards that you could get uh in the last 10 minutes of the quarter or whatever, they're not even worrying about that.
- 23:51SPEAKER_05: So I didn't mean to cut you off.
- 23:53SPEAKER_05: Go ahead, Jay.
- 23:54SPEAKER_02: No, I was just gonna say, and and again, we talk about in a hostile environment.
- 23:59SPEAKER_02: We talk about the most hostile environment in the NFL.
- 24:05SPEAKER_02: The 12 man is no joke in Seattle, and they quieted the crowd.
- 24:10SPEAKER_02: They went from a silent count.
- 24:13SPEAKER_02: If y'all go back and watch the game, the Bears really started off with us in a silent count.
- 24:17SPEAKER_02: They went from a silent count to calling out Cadens because they was like, oh, oh, we got the crowd.
- 24:22SPEAKER_02: Oh, we got this.
- 24:24SPEAKER_02: The crowd is out of the game right now.
- 24:27SPEAKER_02: It was the most, like I said, the most complete Ben Johnson game as a head coach and as an offensive coordinator.
- 24:37SPEAKER_02: He went for it on fourth down when he had when he when he when he needed to.
- 24:42SPEAKER_02: And I don't even know how many fourth downs they went for, but more importantly, he put points on the board with field goals.
- 24:50SPEAKER_02: And when you do that, you keep the momentum on your side.
- 24:55SPEAKER_02: And that was the thing that happened last night.
- 24:58SPEAKER_02: They just kept the momentum on their side, and they and they never trailed, they never trailed last week, they didn't trail last night.
- 25:05SPEAKER_02: They got they got something special going on right now.
- 25:12SPEAKER_03: Yeah, one of the things uh I noticed we we talked about off camera.
- 25:16SPEAKER_03: You can know when this wasn't your time.
- 25:18SPEAKER_03: When a few things look like they went bad, still end up being positive.
- 25:21SPEAKER_03: You get a punt block that still traveled 45 yards.
- 25:25SPEAKER_03: I remember my brother called me doing a game.
- 25:27SPEAKER_03: It's like, man, I said, Man, that is mean it's your time, man.
- 25:30SPEAKER_03: Because usually a block punt, it may go 10-15 yards.
- 25:34SPEAKER_03: But I said, He blocked the punt and it still traveled 45 yards.
- 25:38SPEAKER_03: I said, That's when you know everything just going your way.
- 25:42SPEAKER_02: That also lets you know what kind of power Tori uh exactly or Tori Taylor got in his leg, too.
- 25:49SPEAKER_02: For a punt to be blocked and it still traveled 45 yards.
- 25:51SPEAKER_02: That's a lot, but everything was everything was for them last night.
- 25:55SPEAKER_02: You know, the um uh the interception by Lynch, I think that I think that's who got it.
- 26:02SPEAKER_04: Yeah, yeah.
- 26:03SPEAKER_02: I was just so happy that Austin Booker deflected the pass.
- 26:08SPEAKER_01: And then when I saw Lynch run, I'm like, oh my god.
- 26:11SPEAKER_01: And then you watch the replay, he turned around and just stuck his hands out, and the ball just stuck right there.
- 26:18SPEAKER_02: Big man with football.
- 26:19SPEAKER_02: Let's go.
- 26:24SPEAKER_06: Right.
- 26:26SPEAKER_06: So one thing that we we have to clean up are the defensive penalties.
- 26:34SPEAKER_06: We we hurt ourselves a couple of times yesterday.
- 26:37SPEAKER_06: Uh the defensive backfield had three holding penalties, and which they really didn't need to at that particular time because they neglect they negated a sack.
- 26:48SPEAKER_06: Um matter of fact, uh Grady Jarrett almost negated Simmons sack with the face mask penalty.
- 26:57SPEAKER_06: And so there's still some things that we need to clean up.
- 27:00SPEAKER_06: Still need to clean up that secondary, but I don't know how we're gonna do it, but getting uh Muhammad back should help a little bit, but we still have to clean up just a little bit.
- 27:11SPEAKER_06: Now, somebody posted earlier, and we talked about this.
- 27:15SPEAKER_06: I don't know if we talked about this on out of bounds or whatever.
- 27:18SPEAKER_06: I've been on a couple podcasts, I have no idea, but we talked about the speed of TJ Edwards and Bush.
- 27:27SPEAKER_06: Now you're able to, with Simmons up in the in the front and Jarrett, now you're able to keep the linemen off your linebackers and they're able to flow.
- 27:38SPEAKER_06: And those two guys, like I said, those two guys are sidelined, the sideline guys.
- 27:42SPEAKER_06: Anyway, Devin Bush was laying the boom on some people last night.
- 27:49SPEAKER_06: Sam Donald, I how would you like to be Sam Donald waking up this morning?
- 27:53SPEAKER_06: You probably like, oh he didn't even want no milk because it was white.
- 28:03SPEAKER_06: He didn't want to write on no white paper, he won no milk.
- 28:07SPEAKER_06: It was just bad.
- 28:10SPEAKER_02: But I think what's gonna happen, and we was talking about this off camera.
- 28:15SPEAKER_02: I think what's gonna happen, I think the secondary is gonna get better because now that the Bears can get a pass rush with their front four.
- 28:26SPEAKER_02: At least they showed that last night.
- 28:27SPEAKER_02: I don't know if that's gonna trend to a week-to-week thing, but last night they showed that they could get after the quarterback with four, and they don't have to bring the pressure.
- 28:39SPEAKER_02: And I think the mentality of our linebackers and our defensive backs is gonna change because they're gonna be like, hey, I can, I don't no longer have to look in the backfield, Tyreek Stevenson, on the touchdown, because that's exactly what you were doing.
- 28:57SPEAKER_02: You were looking in the backfield and you let JSN run right past you.
- 29:03SPEAKER_02: But now that you know you got a pass rush, you may start not doing those things that you felt that you needed to do because we wasn't getting to the quarterback.
- 29:17SPEAKER_02: It's gonna free up, it's gonna free up Kyler Gordon uh Kyler Gordon.
- 29:21SPEAKER_02: He's gonna be able to roam around on the field a little bit more as opposed to rushing the quarterback.
- 29:28SPEAKER_02: So it's gonna open up some things.
- 29:30SPEAKER_02: But like you say, Malik uh you know, Malik Muhammad coming back is gonna be key as well.
- 29:35SPEAKER_06: Hey, hey, Simeon, just so you know, oh no, I was just gonna let Simeon know, uh, I was also the guy that asked for Devin Bush to come in.
- 29:43SPEAKER_06: Go ahead, go ahead, Frank.
- 29:45SPEAKER_05: You know, I think the most one of the most pivotal plays of the game was that uh pass interference called on Jackson Smith and Jigma.
- 29:54SPEAKER_05: So since we got the benefit of having Dr.
- 29:57SPEAKER_05: Quick, certified referee there, was that the correct call, or is would that be one of the things that you say let the best cheater win?
- 30:06SPEAKER_05: What was your assessment of that one?
- 30:07SPEAKER_06: Well, here's what happened: he once he extended his hand to create separation, exactly, it's an offensive pass interference.
- 30:16SPEAKER_06: Now, although Stevenson was they were tugging with each other, once he stuck his hand out to create separation to catch the ball, that's OPI all day.
- 30:28SPEAKER_05: So that was the correct call.
- 30:29SPEAKER_06: That was the correct call.
- 30:30SPEAKER_06: That was a correct call.
- 30:32SPEAKER_03: Yeah, it also looked like he even tugged on his jersey to even make it more pronounced, right?
- 30:37SPEAKER_03: When he extended, it almost looked like he grabbed his jersey for a split second as well, right?
- 30:42SPEAKER_03: Which can now make you really see that he was extending off, yeah.
- 30:46SPEAKER_03: But I think the bear still gonna have to look for a corner because either Jalen Johnson can't run or Jalen Johnson has totally lost his confidence.
- 31:00SPEAKER_03: If it's a confidence thing, Jalen Johnson stop feeling sorry for yourself.
- 31:06SPEAKER_03: Stop feeling sorry for yourself.
- 31:07SPEAKER_03: Get you because you used to talk all that smack over the last couple of years with all that swag, but it's easy to have swag on a bad team because the the stop hard that stink doesn't show as bad.
- 31:18SPEAKER_03: Now you you we need you to have swag on a on a good team.
- 31:22SPEAKER_03: If you are not up for the task, then maybe you need to be on the bench.
- 31:27SPEAKER_03: And if you hurt, you need to tell the let's be honest with the coaching staff that you can't go because last night they pretty much started just throwing bubble screens his way for a while because he couldn't even make the tackle, and then when he finally made one tackle, he laid out on the ground, you know.
- 31:45SPEAKER_03: Oh man, like, dude, you know, I guess you ain't stuck it in there enough that uh that uh just one little thing.
- 31:50SPEAKER_03: I thought he had a concussion when he had the little one tackle, you know.
- 31:54SPEAKER_05: Well, with that a lot of times people think that you know football players are gonna start uh atrophy and gradually when it doesn't always happen that way, especially for DBs.
- 32:06SPEAKER_05: Sometimes what ends up happening is you you're good for four years, and that fifth year you have an injury or you lose your confidence or whatever, and you physically can't guard anybody.
- 32:17SPEAKER_05: Unfortunately, I think that's where we've got both of our corners in they in that situation now.
- 32:24SPEAKER_05: They physically can't guard anybody.
- 32:27SPEAKER_05: And as far as you know, looking at Stevenson, looking in the backfield, cheating and all of that, dude.
- 32:33SPEAKER_05: You need to keep your eyes, ears, coat, everything else on that receiver.
- 32:38SPEAKER_05: Except the number one receiver in the NFL, and they had Cooper Coat uh Cup as their second receiver.
- 32:46SPEAKER_05: Everybody in the stadium knew they wasn't throwing it to nobody but him.
- 32:51SPEAKER_05: So you looking in the backfield, I'm like, what kind of situational awareness do you have?
- 32:57SPEAKER_05: That was ridiculous.
- 32:58SPEAKER_02: Hey, hey, put that comment back up.
- 33:00SPEAKER_02: That was hilarious.
- 33:01SPEAKER_02: Well, you're gonna be you're gonna bring tears to my eyes.
- 33:03SPEAKER_02: That was so funny to me.
- 33:04SPEAKER_02: I missed it.
- 33:05SPEAKER_02: What did it say?
- 33:06SPEAKER_02: What did it say?
- 33:06SPEAKER_03: I think it was the one with wrong.
- 33:08SPEAKER_03: I think that's the one you first did.
- 33:10SPEAKER_02: He said the way you guys have supported wrong, I've kind of been the same way with Johnson, and I get it, but last night I hit the point that we just need to break up.
- 33:20SPEAKER_02: I don't need a side shit anymore.
- 33:26SPEAKER_06: Hey man, listen.
- 33:27SPEAKER_06: I I've been uh I've been an advocate, and and matter of fact, y'all that y'all done rolled me to death about this dude.
- 33:35SPEAKER_06: People roll me about this dude.
- 33:37SPEAKER_06: People that call me a hater, talking about I'm angry at him and all that.
- 33:42SPEAKER_06: Uh this dude couldn't play.
- 33:44SPEAKER_06: Hey, you posted that nutty about uh Nation on Right, and I came right back and said this dude got interceptions off of Bums Day.
- 33:54SPEAKER_06: They turned that into 19 million.
- 33:56SPEAKER_06: He got like the only person that he got a a true NFL quarterback was Kirk Cousins.
- 34:03SPEAKER_06: Everybody else is working at Walmart.
- 34:05SPEAKER_06: Oh, Joe Flacco.
- 34:06SPEAKER_06: It was Joe Flacco, yeah, yeah.
- 34:09SPEAKER_06: Yeah, so that that's that that's that's the epitome of him getting a$19 million contract.
- 34:16SPEAKER_06: One of the dudes, I was like, dang, he was in the NFL?
- 34:19SPEAKER_06: I didn't even know.
- 34:21SPEAKER_06: So the the problem is when playing defensive back is 100% about confidence.
- 34:31SPEAKER_06: Yeah and you have to do the things you have to do and pray that the pray that the rush gets home.
- 34:38SPEAKER_06: Now the rush can get home, but in order for the rush to get home, you still got to cover your man.
- 34:44SPEAKER_06: There's too many times where these guys are open off the line of scrimmage, right?
- 34:49SPEAKER_06: And and we're playing man.
- 34:51SPEAKER_06: So you know, somebody has said, man, I mean, like we're playing man to man, you should have jammed him.
- 34:57SPEAKER_06: Why are we so far off if we got a blitz coming?
- 35:00SPEAKER_06: Right?
- 35:01SPEAKER_06: So now you that that don't give you the opportunity to look in the backfield if you playing bump and run.
- 35:07SPEAKER_02: But one thing I can say quick about that is gone are the days where you got you know your Lester Hayes and all that, you know, defensive players are at a disadvantage because they can't really touch the offensive players anymore.
- 35:24SPEAKER_02: And I I get I totally get what you're saying because a lot of times when they line up, I'm like, okay, you 12 yards off the ball, and we ain't man.
- 35:38SPEAKER_01: I don't even know what to sound like you 12 yards off the ball and you ain't man.
- 35:42SPEAKER_01: Who you sticking?
- 35:43SPEAKER_06: Yeah, I don't know.
- 35:44SPEAKER_01: You giving up a first down just by the way you lining up, and we talking about Jackson Smith and Jigba.
- 35:51SPEAKER_06: He don't need room.
- 35:52SPEAKER_06: You see how he turned, he did, he turned uh Jalen Johnson.
- 35:56SPEAKER_06: He was over there doing the hokey pokey and he turned himself around.
- 36:01SPEAKER_06: I mean, it that that was bad, right?
- 36:03SPEAKER_06: He beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep like man.
- 36:07SPEAKER_05: The only problem with that is Jay, the DBs know the rules before they get in the game.
- 36:13SPEAKER_05: So either you're gonna play on on the rules that's already set out, or you're not, you can't have it both ways.
- 36:20SPEAKER_02: But like my brother just said, JSN does that to everybody.
- 36:23SPEAKER_02: He he had one he has one game this year under 70 yards.
- 36:28SPEAKER_02: He has one game, everything else is all triple digits.
- 36:31SPEAKER_03: Yeah, it's all triple digits.
- 36:33SPEAKER_03: I'm I'm gonna say this, and I know people ain't gonna understand it.
- 36:37SPEAKER_03: I'm but I'm about to blame DA for those uh big plays right before halftime.
- 36:43SPEAKER_03: I gotta blame off defensive coordinator because whatever happens, I don't care if it's a lack of concentration from the individual players, it's happened too many times.
- 36:54SPEAKER_03: It happened last year at least about six or seven times.
- 36:57SPEAKER_03: The Bingo's game being the first game.
- 36:59SPEAKER_03: It just happened last week.
- 37:02SPEAKER_03: It happens again this week, even though they all different plays.
- 37:06SPEAKER_03: Whatever DA is doing, uh, he has to.
- 37:09SPEAKER_03: I don't know if he needs to call a time, they need to call a timeout, but it seems like right before halftime, the Bears defense goes to sleep.
- 37:18SPEAKER_03: I don't care if it's one second, ten seconds, that you almost automatically know that team's gonna score.
- 37:24SPEAKER_03: So DA, because you're the defensive coordinator, whatever it is, you need to fix it because it's it's a re recurring problem, and it's on different players, it's not like it's happening on the same player.
- 37:37SPEAKER_03: So I'm I'm charging him with having to fix that, and that's not saying they played great defense last night.
- 37:42SPEAKER_03: I'm not saying they didn't play a good defense, I'm just saying uh he needs to fix that.
- 37:46SPEAKER_03: Defense still don't get an A, though.
- 37:48SPEAKER_06: Man, come on Defense can't get an A.
- 37:53SPEAKER_06: I mean, God, at least you know, back in the day, this is the game Plank could be like defense gets an A.
- 37:59SPEAKER_06: No, they don't still get a A.
- 38:02SPEAKER_02: But they did, but the Bears did shut down the running game last night.
- 38:06SPEAKER_02: Um Seattle had all three, or they had the luxury of having all three of their running backs last night.
- 38:14SPEAKER_02: And and because you had um you had Charbonneau, uh Charbonet that came off IR, and you had the Price that came off of IR.
- 38:24SPEAKER_02: So they had a compliment or their running backs last night, but they the Bears set the tone early, and they did what they needed to do to make Seattle have to throw the football.
- 38:36SPEAKER_02: And when Seattle has to throw the football, y'all know Sam Darnold is going to give you the football.
- 38:45SPEAKER_02: Last night he came in last night, eight interceptions, eight touchdowns.
- 38:49SPEAKER_02: Last night he ended the game, nine touchdowns, nine interceptions.
- 38:54SPEAKER_02: So I mean, it's just it's just what he do.
- 38:58SPEAKER_06: No, Jay, you gotta give him credit.
- 39:00SPEAKER_06: He that's what he threw two touchdowns last night.
- 39:02SPEAKER_06: You gotta give him credit.
- 39:04SPEAKER_06: Yeah, he had 10 touchdowns and nine interceptions.
- 39:08SPEAKER_06: Don't do them like that.
- 39:09SPEAKER_01: I digress, I digress.
- 39:12SPEAKER_03: Look, look, one of those touchdowns, right?
- 39:15SPEAKER_03: It's uh uh you know the one before halftime.
- 39:18SPEAKER_03: So if he hadn't got that one, he would have been perfect on his record.
- 39:21SPEAKER_02: He would have been nine nine for nine, and that and that play was the only third down conversion Seattle got all the whole night.
- 39:32SPEAKER_02: They was one of eleven, eleven percent.
- 39:36SPEAKER_02: One of eleven sweat they gonna pd conversions last night, and that touchdown was the one conversion that they got on third down.
- 39:50SPEAKER_02: Yeah, phenomenal job, man.
- 39:51SPEAKER_02: They did a phenomenal job.
- 39:54SPEAKER_02: Hey, Montez sweat.
- 39:55SPEAKER_03: Let me move over to offense a minute.
- 39:57SPEAKER_03: Uh oh, yeah, let me move over to offense for a minute.
- 40:01SPEAKER_03: I know we started out talking about it.
- 40:03SPEAKER_03: You know what?
- 40:04SPEAKER_03: We cannot talk enough about Caleb Williams, and I keep saying as one of the things that you saw last night with Caleb is him taking on the more and more the leadership role.
- 40:16SPEAKER_03: At some point in that game, you see him even in front of uh he's in front of Simmons, and he's like right pumping it up with Simmons, like get us the ball back, or what you know, whatever.
- 40:29SPEAKER_03: You know, I don't know what he was saying, but now where he's right interacting with the defense, right, and then he's over there with the offense.
- 40:38SPEAKER_03: And I keep saying that one uh one thing that people don't talk enough about Caleb Williams is his vision on that play that I mentioned earlier, where he got out of that scramble.
- 40:49SPEAKER_03: See, most lot of athletic quarterbacks would take off and run in that situation, take off running, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 40:56SPEAKER_03: He climbed the pocket and threw it able to compose himself real quickly, and a lot of also what you would see is a lot of athletic quarterbacks don't have as much of a fast throwing motion as he has, so that's why sometimes the ball gets hit right when they try to do that and it gets knocked at the arm.
- 41:14SPEAKER_03: Caleb actually is it's funny because Caleb looked back for a second, he came out of that scramble so fast, he looked back for a second and still got the ball his feet and then made the throw.
- 41:30SPEAKER_03: A dive to Roma Does they on that throw.
- 41:32SPEAKER_03: I mean coach that you can't coach that.
- 41:38SPEAKER_06: Nah, man.
- 41:38SPEAKER_06: I'm with I'm with L Ray man.
- 41:41SPEAKER_04: I'm with L Ray, man.
- 41:43SPEAKER_06: I'm I'm with L Ray.
- 41:45SPEAKER_06: I don't care what he does.
- 41:47SPEAKER_06: That fingernail pointing mama showed the crime dude shouldn't be here in Chicago.
- 41:54SPEAKER_06: We should have given all this stuff to Justin Fields, and we would still be where we are today.
- 42:05SPEAKER_05: Man, so give him a break, man.
- 42:08SPEAKER_06: No, you don't say nothing like that and get a break, right?
- 42:11SPEAKER_03: Hey, quick.
- 42:12SPEAKER_03: I I wish I knew you said that.
- 42:14SPEAKER_03: I would have had that clip up.
- 42:15SPEAKER_03: You made a you we had a clip of you, I think it was it was just it was uh it's Caleb Wills rookie year, and you would say, I don't care if he thrown for 300 yards in consecutive game.
- 42:27SPEAKER_03: Talk about Caleb and you think about it.
- 42:28SPEAKER_03: We even had what well, this is the first game that wasn't officially 300.
- 42:32SPEAKER_03: And you was like, I don't care how many touchdowns he throws for, we still still should have kept just the field, right?
- 42:39SPEAKER_03: And if you cannot see that this guy is special, that's why I point out the vision part, the athletic part, the composure, to be able to throw in tight windows, uh, and you also what we don't know, but you can start getting a hint of it, is the corrections at the line when he sees the defense is doing something, and the play that's called because that's important too, right?
- 43:01SPEAKER_03: If a quarterback, this is one of the criticism of Mike Mars, um, going back a little bit that the play that he was called, he called, he expected his quarterbacks to run that play.
- 43:13SPEAKER_03: When your quarterback comes out and see a defense that they didn't you anticipate the coaches, the ability to go to either that second play or to identify another play that'll get you out of that situation, and you see a whole lot of what Caleb appears to be uh changing the play because the defense is showing something, right?
- 43:32SPEAKER_03: Which that and Ben is acknowledging that because Ben is saying Caleb gets me out of a lot of mistakes I made, and I don't think he's just like just you know, just snowballing them or whatever you was glazing him.
- 43:44SPEAKER_03: I guess it's he's not just glazing them, he's telling the truth, and I'm sure it's both the both ways.
- 43:49SPEAKER_03: Like, for example, last time I want to make a comment the bears had an intentional ground.
- 43:54SPEAKER_03: This is another example of how things go in your way.
- 43:57SPEAKER_03: The bears had intentional ground and on the turn.
- 44:01SPEAKER_03: They had a uh delay of game, delayed game third down play where they would have lost yard, but the delayed game actually helped them because they scored the touchdown on the uh got the first down, whatever, on the next play.
- 44:14SPEAKER_03: So that actually helped them being able to run the uh yeah, that was the uh play that I believe the Swift outside.
- 44:20SPEAKER_03: Now, you know, if you watch that play, when Caleb gives the ball to Swift, he's running right next to the actually runs with Swift the whole time trying to find somebody to block.
- 44:31SPEAKER_03: Don't do that, okay.
- 44:32SPEAKER_03: Don't do that.
- 44:33SPEAKER_03: Somebody, somebody shot you.
- 44:35SPEAKER_03: Don't do that.
- 44:37SPEAKER_05: Well, you know how you you said you can't coach that or whatever.
- 44:40SPEAKER_05: I'm I'm taking uh shot out my hats off again to uh Eric Bianomi because Deontay Swift, he the one that taught him how to get the tough yards.
- 44:52SPEAKER_05: When he first came to the Bears, we remembered, you know, he was out there, he'd always try to break it off to the outside, and he would never cut back.
- 45:00SPEAKER_05: He was a one-dimensional back.
- 45:02SPEAKER_05: But once uh Bianni started giving him a couple different uh objectives, man, uh I'm telling you, uh Swift, he getting touchdowns and he getting a hard touchdown.
- 45:15SPEAKER_05: So this dude, I think he got about 10 touchdowns this year already.
- 45:20SPEAKER_05: Just based on him writing it out and taking the taking what uh the defense is giving him.
- 45:28SPEAKER_02: And I'm gonna give you another fun fact.
- 45:30SPEAKER_02: I'm gonna give you another fun fact.
- 45:34SPEAKER_02: DeAndre Swift joined some company last night.
- 45:38SPEAKER_02: And guess who that running back was?
- 45:41SPEAKER_02: Sweetness.
- 45:43SPEAKER_02: He was the first quarterback to have three touchdowns in a game in because in one season.
- 45:52SPEAKER_02: So Swift has had three touchdowns in two games this season that's never happened before outside of Walter Payton.
- 46:00SPEAKER_02: So and we can nit, and like I said before the before the broadcast, we can nitpick and pull out all these stats if we want to, which is meaningless because that's a meaningless stat, if you ask me.
- 46:13SPEAKER_02: But at the same time, it lets you know where the progress is.
- 46:17SPEAKER_02: And play, as you said, he was a one-trick pony before Eric B.
- 46:23SPEAKER_02: Enemy got here last year.
- 46:24SPEAKER_04: Yep.
- 46:25SPEAKER_02: For that one year, he told Swift, if you're gonna be a running back, you need to hit it in between the tackles.
- 46:34SPEAKER_02: And them 26 carries that Swift had last night, them was some tough yards.
- 46:40SPEAKER_02: Them was some tough yards, and Dan Johnson stayed with the run.
- 46:45SPEAKER_02: And again, as he presented him with the game ball, the first thing DeAndre Swift said was like, Thank you for sticking with the run.
- 46:53SPEAKER_02: 69 yards on 26 carries.
- 46:56SPEAKER_02: That's what that's that's the day's work, bro.
- 46:59SPEAKER_02: What's that?
- 47:00SPEAKER_02: 2.9 yards to carry.
- 47:04SPEAKER_01: And he was getting hit a lot of times, he was getting whacked.
- 47:08SPEAKER_01: He was like I said, those some tough yards.
- 47:11SPEAKER_06: Well, he didn't he didn't back down and try to, and like you said, he didn't try to back down and bounce it out, except on the touchdown.
- 47:18SPEAKER_02: Except one of those touchdowns where he was able to bounce it out, but those were some tough yards last night.
- 47:24SPEAKER_02: And in order for this offense to continue to do what it's doing, for the play action to be formidable, they need to continue to run the football.
- 47:34SPEAKER_02: And Ben Johnson did that last night.
- 47:36SPEAKER_02: It was it was phenomenal, man.
- 47:38SPEAKER_02: That was phenomenal last night.
- 47:40SPEAKER_03: Yeah, well, we we all know that you win and lose games in the trenches.
- 47:44SPEAKER_03: This game, reason it was so important to me because uh defensively, the bears faced a pretty good uh offensive line.
- 47:55SPEAKER_03: Defensively, uh offensively, the bears they that did uh that's a tough line.
- 48:01SPEAKER_03: Uh Jackson had a hard time last night.
- 48:04SPEAKER_03: He had a hard time.
- 48:06SPEAKER_03: And Plank uh pointed out that uh rookie tight end Rouse actually had a pretty good game helping in the blocking game.
- 48:13SPEAKER_03: So it won't acknowledge that that he stepped up.
- 48:16SPEAKER_03: You might not I don't think he had any catches, but they didn't need him to catch last night, they needed him to help protect the quarterback.
- 48:21SPEAKER_05: You didn't miss commit yesterday, right?
- 48:24SPEAKER_03: Theo Bennett did a yeah, Theo Bennett actually did a good job.
- 48:29SPEAKER_03: Uh matter of fact, I don't think he came out the game because they had been bringing Trapillo in the game, getting him some snap count.
- 48:35SPEAKER_03: But I believe unless something was with uh with Trapillo, Theo Benedict played the whole game, which showed that he was playing well.
- 48:44SPEAKER_03: So to see the Bears actually win on both sides of the ball in the trenches is important, right?
- 48:50SPEAKER_03: Because you're not gonna other than the Vikings, and if you think about the Vikings front four is not as dominant as the Seattle front four, the Vikings is bring a lot of pressure, you know, they always just blessing and blessing.
- 49:02SPEAKER_03: But that that Seattle front four, that's hell, that's hard to block.
- 49:06SPEAKER_03: And the Bears, if you looked at that first drive, even though it took a lot of plays, man, they manhandled them on that first drive.
- 49:13SPEAKER_03: I mean, I was like, Man, that was pretty easy.
- 49:16SPEAKER_02: And so if you look at this, the Bears had possessed the ball 35 minutes, it's still time of possession is possessing the ball, and the bears have ran over a hundred and twenty more 120 plus more plays than any team in the NFL.
- 49:34SPEAKER_06: So hey one thing, one thing I want y'all to notice, and uh we somebody talked about uh Caleb Williams.
- 49:45SPEAKER_06: What Caleb has done is that in order for him to rally the troops, he's more or less said the buck starts and it ends with me.
- 49:56SPEAKER_06: And so I'm going to go out here and I'm going to reflect what my words are telling you.
- 50:02SPEAKER_06: I need you to do the same thing.
- 50:05SPEAKER_06: I was just talking to uh I was talking to somebody before this podcast.
- 50:10SPEAKER_06: And you know who used to do that here in Chicago?
- 50:14SPEAKER_06: Michael Jordan.
- 50:16SPEAKER_06: Michael Jordan used to do that when he was here saying, Hey, I need you to boom, boom, boom.
- 50:22SPEAKER_06: And so now if you can do this and I do this, now we can win collectively.
- 50:29SPEAKER_06: Right?
- 50:29SPEAKER_06: And again, having that dude in the middle of that defense is going to right now.
- 50:35SPEAKER_06: Let me ask you a question.
- 50:36SPEAKER_06: Because we did our two for two last week.
- 50:38SPEAKER_06: I don't think nobody put the bears in their two for two.
- 50:42SPEAKER_06: Are the bears in your two for two now?
- 50:45SPEAKER_05: I I did put them in my two for two last week.
- 50:48SPEAKER_06: Well, yeah, you were the guy that was uh voting for the bears every week, two nothing about four years ago.
- 50:59SPEAKER_06: You remember that, don't you?
- 51:01SPEAKER_06: Okay, oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 51:02SPEAKER_06: I didn't forget that.
- 51:03SPEAKER_06: I didn't forget that.
- 51:04SPEAKER_06: I was like, two nothing.
- 51:06SPEAKER_06: Come on, man.
- 51:08SPEAKER_03: To me, they currently currently are the best team in the NFC, to me, and it if I'm I'm really starting to waver at maybe the best team.
- 51:20SPEAKER_03: Uh you know what?
- 51:20SPEAKER_03: Reason I'm not saying they're the best team in football right now because and I know this seems kind of uh weird, I'm not exactly sure they could beat everybody in the division yet.
- 51:31SPEAKER_03: That's the only reason I I had I don't put them at number one because I'm I'm still uh I have to see the Ben beat Detroit.
- 51:40SPEAKER_03: He has not beat Detroit, and not saying Detroit is the best team, but uh sometimes you just have that one person and always like to use Foreman Ali.
- 51:50SPEAKER_03: Ali kills Foreman kills Fraser Ali knocks Frazier Foreman out.
- 51:58SPEAKER_03: He has two more tough fights with Frazier.
- 52:01SPEAKER_03: Some of the people that right Foreman struggles with Ron, I think Ron Lyle, Ali knocks Ron Lyle out, right?
- 52:10SPEAKER_03: So sometimes you have those nemesis that right, it's almost like that's his monkey on the back is to get that Detroit uh what you got, Jay?
- 52:19SPEAKER_02: It's it it's something that's worth talking about because the two losses that the Bears have are in the division.
- 52:27SPEAKER_02: And if you can remember last year, the Bears went two and four in the division last year.
- 52:33SPEAKER_02: They won the division, but they only won two games in the division.
- 52:38SPEAKER_02: So that is something to think about.
- 52:39SPEAKER_02: And you're right, Bernard.
- 52:41SPEAKER_02: You can't really say they're the best team in the NFL yet, but I am gonna stick by what I said when I say last night, they put the NFL on notice.
- 52:51SPEAKER_02: And if you look at their schedule coming down, if you look at the schedule, you know, we got Tampa Bay on Sunday night, then we got the Bad Week.
- 53:00SPEAKER_02: So then you got possibly Mononga coming back for the New Orleans game, then you go to Detroit on Thanksgiving.
- 53:11SPEAKER_02: It gets a lot juicy.
- 53:13SPEAKER_02: Then you go to Miami, and then you got the Bills, and then you end the season with those three division games.
- 53:22SPEAKER_02: So it's gonna be it's gonna be tough sledding, but you're right.
- 53:27SPEAKER_02: Until they're able to beat somebody in the division, can we say that they are the best team in football?
- 53:33SPEAKER_02: We can't really say that right now.
- 53:34SPEAKER_06: Let me let me jump in because you don't have to be the best team in the NFL to win the Super Bowl.
- 53:41SPEAKER_06: No, you don't just gotta get into the dance.
- 53:43SPEAKER_06: You just gotta get the game.
- 53:45SPEAKER_06: But they're I don't care if they're the best team, I care about winning five out of the next nine games.
- 53:51SPEAKER_06: I don't care about them being the 15 and two, I don't care about 14 and 3, I care about 11 and 6 because now when you look at it, this NFC North is the best division in the NFC and one of the best divisions in football.
- 54:10SPEAKER_06: Who gives a about them going 15 and 2?
- 54:13SPEAKER_06: I don't agree.
- 54:14SPEAKER_06: You don't have to be the best team, but you know, and the people that's in the NFC know that if you're in the dance, they gotta do the damn dance with you, and that's not you gotta come to soldier field depending on where they come out in the in the thing.
- 54:30SPEAKER_06: You have to come to soldier field, not a great place to play when it's decent.
- 54:34SPEAKER_06: I mean January, it's cold as hell.
- 54:36SPEAKER_06: That's not where you want to be, but you do not have to be the best team in football.
- 54:43SPEAKER_06: We all agreed, yeah.
- 54:45SPEAKER_02: We all agreed in the in the in the pregame the other day.
- 54:49SPEAKER_02: Even if the bears had lost this game, this was just a measuring stick.
- 54:53SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I wouldn't have been mad one way.
- 54:55SPEAKER_02: Now, had the bears went to Seattle and got blew out, I'd have been like, whoa, okay, let's wait a minute.
- 54:59SPEAKER_02: Yeah, but you know, that was a measuring stick.
- 55:02SPEAKER_02: So for them to step up and be able to win the game in the fashion that they did, it puts the NFL on notice.
- 55:09SPEAKER_02: But again, are we ready to say that they are the best team in football?
- 55:14SPEAKER_02: I'm not ready to say that yet.
- 55:16SPEAKER_02: And just like you said, I don't care about a regular season record.
- 55:21SPEAKER_02: That means absolutely nothing to me.
- 55:23SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I just how many teams have we saw that had these great regular seasons and they out in the first round of the playoffs?
- 55:31SPEAKER_06: The Patriots were undefeated.
- 55:33SPEAKER_06: Yep, seven was 16-0.
- 55:36SPEAKER_06: 16-0, and lost the Super Bowl.
- 55:38SPEAKER_06: So, so we what we do have to do, we have to beat the Bucks, we have to beat uh the Saints.
- 55:47SPEAKER_06: We have to win those two games.
- 55:51SPEAKER_06: Those two games, we have to win.
- 55:52SPEAKER_06: Those two of those games are are important, yeah.
- 55:55SPEAKER_06: What but even it even with that, that gives us to eight and two, right now.
- 56:00SPEAKER_06: We have to win three three out of six.
- 56:03SPEAKER_06: So I believe that 11 and 6 will get you in.
- 56:07SPEAKER_06: Now, anything from there, 11, anything over 11 wins is great.
- 56:13SPEAKER_06: Yep, yeah, but you have to win this week against the Bucs, you gotta win against the Saints, you still pick up another victory against Miami.
- 56:21SPEAKER_06: Miami.
- 56:22SPEAKER_06: That's three wins.
- 56:23SPEAKER_06: That gets us to nine.
- 56:24SPEAKER_06: Now you got to win two, and you can split with Detroit.
- 56:27SPEAKER_06: You gotta knock off, you gotta knock off the uh the Vikings or the Packers.
- 56:32SPEAKER_06: That that's 11 wins, and you still got the Bills in there.
- 56:36SPEAKER_02: You still got you still gotta go to Buffalo and play the Bills, whose defense is not that great.
- 56:41SPEAKER_02: Because right now, I'm convinced that we can we can score points against anybody.
- 56:45SPEAKER_02: That that Vikings game, had it not rained, that was an anomaly.
- 56:50SPEAKER_02: Yeah, the weather was just bad.
- 56:52SPEAKER_02: And and and like I was telling somebody today, to be honest, Caleb Williams was on his way to the end zone when he had the hamstring.
- 57:00SPEAKER_02: He was on his way to the end zone.
- 57:02SPEAKER_02: So, but that's one under the bridge.
- 57:04SPEAKER_02: Y'all know how I feel about the Packers game, you know.
- 57:08SPEAKER_02: So, but you right, you're right, Quick.
- 57:11SPEAKER_03: You you right this value points, quick, because you got you you have to stay on pace with your division because everybody in the division, right?
- 57:19SPEAKER_03: The Bears got six wins, the Vikings have six wins, Green Bay and Detroit.
- 57:24SPEAKER_03: I think both have five wins.
- 57:25SPEAKER_03: So everybody is so neck and neck, you know, make sure you get those wins and you stay at the top of the division.
- 57:33SPEAKER_02: And if the playoffs started today, the entire NFC North would be in the playoffs.
- 57:39SPEAKER_02: I believe that everybody in the NFC North will get in there would be in the playoffs.
- 57:43SPEAKER_06: I think that everybody in the NFC North is getting in, and so it just depends on where we are in the most.
- 57:50SPEAKER_06: You look at look at the other divisions.
- 57:52SPEAKER_06: There's only one team gonna come out of the south.
- 57:54SPEAKER_02: Hey, hey, let me tell you something.
- 57:55SPEAKER_02: Right, what Vikings, let me tell you something.
- 57:57SPEAKER_02: The Vikings right now, they got problems.
- 57:59SPEAKER_02: No, they can't score no points.
- 58:01SPEAKER_06: But but here's what I'm saying here's what they got four, five, four, five losses, and they still gonna continue to lose.
- 58:09SPEAKER_06: Look at the divisions.
- 58:10SPEAKER_06: The south is terrible, the west, the sea outs uh in second place, and they got four losses.
- 58:16SPEAKER_06: They still gotta go back and play the Rams, they still gotta play C uh the 49ers, and they still gotta play, they still gotta play like Detroit.
- 58:23SPEAKER_06: They gotta, you know what I'm saying?
- 58:24SPEAKER_06: So they up to get some more losses.
- 58:27SPEAKER_02: They up for some more losses, right?
- 58:29SPEAKER_02: The Vikings, like Simeon say the Vikings about to go through a gauntlet right now, though.
- 58:33SPEAKER_02: They gotta be here.
- 58:34SPEAKER_06: I didn't, I didn't, I'm not, I'm more worried about Detroit than the Vikings.
- 58:39SPEAKER_06: I ain't worried about I'm not worried about the Vikings.
- 58:41SPEAKER_06: I was like, I'm good for you guys.
- 58:43SPEAKER_06: That's nice.
- 58:44SPEAKER_06: Um what they say, ain't that cute?
- 58:46SPEAKER_06: Y'all see that's so nice.
- 58:49SPEAKER_06: Oh that's so cute.
- 58:52SPEAKER_06: Look at little, look at a little take tank over there.
- 58:55SPEAKER_06: I'm gonna look at a little take tank.
- 58:57SPEAKER_06: Man, but like like I said, I'm not I wasn't worried about the Vikings, I'm more worried about Detroit.
- 59:04SPEAKER_06: I'm not really worried about Green Bay.
- 59:06SPEAKER_06: Let me tell you something.
- 59:07SPEAKER_06: Um look, what'd you say?
- 59:08SPEAKER_06: Clip it.
- 59:09SPEAKER_06: Let me tell you something.
- 59:11SPEAKER_06: Let me tell you something.
- 59:13SPEAKER_06: How the Bears are playing now, and we got that dude, Kobe Bryant, coming back.
- 59:21SPEAKER_06: If we can stay relatively healthy, it's gonna be some butts getting beat around here because now we have depth.
- 59:30SPEAKER_06: The guy, some of the guys that came in, the second unit defensive line, they was getting at the two a little bit last night, right?
- 59:38SPEAKER_06: And so your linebacker crew, you got we talked about TJ Elbers, we talked about Bush, you still got DJ and Jack Sanborn.
- 59:47SPEAKER_06: So you can steal our weakest points of our defense from being a phenomenal dominant defense is the outsides.
- 59:57SPEAKER_06: You still got Thineman, you'll have Théneman, Kobe Bryant.
- 1:00:01SPEAKER_06: You still what you gonna do with Cam Lewis, who out there knocking people out?
- 1:00:04SPEAKER_06: You got Muhammad, so you got pieces.
- 1:00:07SPEAKER_06: We playing chess when everybody else trying to figure out how to play chess.
- 1:00:11SPEAKER_06: You got Spider-Man, you're right.
- 1:00:13SPEAKER_06: Alec Warden was in coverage last night.
- 1:00:15SPEAKER_06: He wasn't blissing every play, right?
- 1:00:17SPEAKER_02: So you and we talked about it, and we talked about it on the pregame.
- 1:00:21SPEAKER_02: How people was you know calling into these shows, and they was like, after we got Jeffrey Simmons, they was like, Well, what's gonna happen to the playant town with Vandenberg?
- 1:00:29SPEAKER_02: And what's gonna happen?
- 1:00:30SPEAKER_02: He's in the matter because what happens is when Simmons needs a blow and it showed last night, you got these guys coming in.
- 1:00:41SPEAKER_02: Like, I'm only getting a few reps, so I need to make these reps count.
- 1:00:46SPEAKER_06: I need the ball up, and they didn't you know I mean, so they didn't play bad, they didn't play bad, yeah.
- 1:00:53SPEAKER_03: But the bears go ahead.
- 1:00:56SPEAKER_03: Oh, the bears defensive line harassed them so much.
- 1:01:00SPEAKER_03: I'm sure in a couple of those timeouts, they probably was asking the ref how many players they got out there.
- 1:01:05SPEAKER_03: You sure it's only 11?
- 1:01:09SPEAKER_01: Is it only 11 players out there?
- 1:01:11SPEAKER_01: Yeah, maybe it's 14.
- 1:01:13SPEAKER_01: You sure?
- 1:01:14SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 1:01:16SPEAKER_02: Last night Austin Booker was playing like his hair was on fire.
- 1:01:21SPEAKER_02: Him Daniel Hardy, the these are the guys that need to step up when Jeffrey Simmons needs to blow, when Montez Sweat needs to blow, and that's what that's what I saw last night.
- 1:01:36SPEAKER_02: It was like I said, last night was just a different energy, man.
- 1:01:40SPEAKER_02: And I don't know if it's because of Jeffrey Simmons, and everybody was so excited.
- 1:01:45SPEAKER_02: But if they can keep this energy up, and Ben can stay in this mode, because if y'all notice Ben, Ben didn't have a smile on his face all night last night on the sideline.
- 1:01:57SPEAKER_02: It generally doesn't not do the game.
- 1:02:00SPEAKER_02: You know, he you know, he did his stanky leg in the in the locker room, but on the sideline, even when the bass scored a touchdown, his face was like stoic, like, okay, yeah, this is what we supposed to do.
- 1:02:11SPEAKER_02: I'm expecting this from y'all.
- 1:02:13SPEAKER_06: I forgot about one more dude.
- 1:02:16SPEAKER_06: I forgot about the dude who was having a phenomenal year before he got hurt, Dio.
- 1:02:21SPEAKER_02: Dio, I forgot about Dio.
- 1:02:24SPEAKER_06: Wait, when we get Dio back, it'll be Dio, Jarrett, uh, Simmons, and Sweat.
- 1:02:32SPEAKER_06: Hey, good luck.
- 1:02:34SPEAKER_06: Good luck, man.
- 1:02:34SPEAKER_06: Good luck.
- 1:02:35SPEAKER_06: That's all you can say, and then you got Booker as the role player to fill in on both end sides.
- 1:02:43SPEAKER_06: Man, hey.
- 1:02:44SPEAKER_05: A lot of people don't pay attention to Booker.
- 1:02:46SPEAKER_05: Booker still is uh in his infancy and learning how to play the position, learning how to play the position.
- 1:02:52SPEAKER_05: You know, he was a fairly light skinned, man.
- 1:02:56SPEAKER_05: He light skinned with muscles, so that give him extra points, I guess.
- 1:03:00SPEAKER_06: No, you you know, you got you gotta you gotta always watch them light skinned, uh Chris Williams and I'll be sure my you know, they'd be out there doing whatever.
- 1:03:08SPEAKER_05: Hey, he's light skinned with a Jerry curl, so you know he got some different things.
- 1:03:15SPEAKER_03: Matter of fact, let's get right to the scores and wrap up.
- 1:03:18SPEAKER_03: Booker, I want to make a comment about Booker.
- 1:03:21SPEAKER_03: Clip this Booker.
- 1:03:24SPEAKER_03: I would say within a year or two is gonna be a star.
- 1:03:28SPEAKER_03: Booker Booker once I mean you can see his comment, man.
- 1:03:33SPEAKER_03: You can see it coming.
- 1:03:34SPEAKER_03: Booker is right there, man.
- 1:03:37SPEAKER_03: Cause even last night, he looked a whole lot better in the run game than he had, and he showed a little more discipline last night because a couple of plays where he was in early on, the Bears had over pursued a few times as the game went on, and Donald was able to step up because everybody had overpursued, so it looked like they kind of adjusted their defense more to like everybody cannot run at the spot of quarterback.
- 1:04:03SPEAKER_03: We need somebody to kind of like hold the line of scrimmage in case you stepped up.
- 1:04:07SPEAKER_03: And matter of fact, that was kind of like one of the plays where they threw it to uh he tried to throw a check down, and Booker was right there.
- 1:04:16SPEAKER_03: And like I say, even the play y'all mentioned where he batted it down.
- 1:04:18SPEAKER_03: But did y'all want to move to the scores, or y'all want to keep that just real quick?
- 1:04:22SPEAKER_02: I just want to make one last comment about Booker.
- 1:04:24SPEAKER_02: Booker was the one who actually blocked the punt, the field goal last night.
- 1:04:29SPEAKER_02: Yeah, last night.
- 1:04:30SPEAKER_02: Guess who was getting double teamed?
- 1:04:33SPEAKER_02: Guess who was getting double teamed?

- 1:04:42SPEAKER_02: He just got here Wednesday.
- 1:04:43SPEAKER_02: He's taking up double teams on the field goal unit and he just got here Wednesday.
- 1:04:48SPEAKER_02: This this is this is something different, man.
- 1:04:50SPEAKER_02: This is this is something different.
- 1:04:52SPEAKER_05: Well, Timeon said, Do we remember the movie called talking about Soul Glow?
- 1:04:57SPEAKER_05: Soul Glow was not from I'm Gonna Get You Sucker.
- 1:05:01SPEAKER_05: Some Soul Glow was from Soul Glow coming to America.
- 1:05:04SPEAKER_01: Coming to America.

- 1:07:08SPEAKER_03: Friday, we'll be back with uh the uh pre-game show pre-show and uh Dr.
- 1:07:14SPEAKER_03: Sean uh Thompson will be back on uh Saturday morning.
- 1:07:18SPEAKER_03: Matter of fact, Sean may be sitting in with us for about five minutes on Friday.
- 1:07:22SPEAKER_03: I want to um actually take a formal introduction of him because we kind of just brought the show on and he got the rolling.
- 1:07:29SPEAKER_03: Uh, but he had never been like a guest or anything on the show.
- 1:07:32SPEAKER_03: So if he could make it on Friday, I really like to bring him in the beginning of the show so he could kind of tell y'all uh what the show is about for those who haven't seen it.
- 1:07:39SPEAKER_03: But hey, let's get to the scores and what y'all want to do.
- 1:07:43SPEAKER_02: He can also he can also incorporate he can also incorporate his fantasy selections from the bears in the Buccaneers game.
- 1:07:52SPEAKER_02: That that could be something that he could also roll into if he comes on the pregame too, as well.
- 1:07:58SPEAKER_03: Yes, sir.
- 1:07:59SPEAKER_03: Yeah, give you a sneak preview of what he's gonna say.
- 1:08:03SPEAKER_03: I mean, I just want to make one comment.
- 1:08:05SPEAKER_03: He has that on this thing is called a sick and shut in list.
- 1:08:09SPEAKER_03: I mean he thought he has all these categories for fantasy, but he has a shook and uh then he has the uh he has the pastor pulled pick confessions, uh and it's a safe space where you could confess that you made a mistake and you actually mistakenly thought that Tom John you thought Sam Donald was gonna throw for three touchdowns and throw for 400 yards or something, and he has this thing called uh pass the confessions, pulpit confessions where you could confess to him that you mistakenly played him anyway.
- 1:08:54SPEAKER_03: Let's get to the scores.
- 1:09:02SPEAKER_05: What are we giving?
- 1:09:03SPEAKER_03: What are we talking about?
- 1:09:05SPEAKER_03: What are we talking about?
- 1:09:05SPEAKER_05: I got which one I'll go uh offense offense, defense, special teams.
- 1:09:11SPEAKER_05: All right, offense, I'm giving an A.
- 1:09:15SPEAKER_05: So 30, 30, uh, four points, good job.
- 1:09:19SPEAKER_05: Defense, I'm giving a B plus because those corners need to do something better to be an actual part of the defense.
- 1:09:25SPEAKER_05: And I'm giving the special teams an A.
- 1:09:28SPEAKER_05: Santos not only hit two field goals, he actually kept the ball, kicking it deep, and then blocked by uh Austin Booker.
- 1:09:36SPEAKER_05: Man, that's how you have a whole team defense.
- 1:09:40SPEAKER_05: So Bears got all got good grades.
- 1:09:43SPEAKER_05: And defense didn't get an A quick.
- 1:09:47SPEAKER_02: Well, I'm giving the offense, I'm I'm giving the offense an A, and I'm I'm I'm definitely giving the game ball to DeAndre Swift because without his tough yards yesterday, I don't know what this offense would have looked like.
- 1:09:59SPEAKER_02: He kept the offense balanced and he kept Seattle's defense on their toes.
- 1:10:04SPEAKER_02: Uh the defense, I'm gonna give them a B.
- 1:10:08SPEAKER_02: Um, you know, like you said, Plank, we we gotta show up.
- 1:10:12SPEAKER_02: But you know, JSN does that to everybody.
- 1:10:14SPEAKER_02: But you know, Cooper Cup caught a touchdown.
- 1:10:17SPEAKER_02: And it is what it is.
- 1:10:19SPEAKER_02: We did shut the running game down.
- 1:10:22SPEAKER_02: Uh we we harassed the quarterback.
- 1:10:24SPEAKER_02: So I'm I'm gonna get them a B.
- 1:10:26SPEAKER_02: Special teams, I'm gonna give an A.
- 1:10:28SPEAKER_02: And I'm gonna give a special shout out to the block punt from Tory Taylor that traveled 45 yards.
- 1:10:35SPEAKER_02: So that lets you know how good, how, how, how strong his leg is.
- 1:10:40SPEAKER_02: Even on a block, the punt still traveled 45 yards.
- 1:10:44SPEAKER_02: And coaching staff, I'm like, I'm gonna get him an A all across the board because, like, again, like I said, I just think that this was Ben Johnson's best coach game as a head coach and as an offensive coordinator.
- 1:10:58SPEAKER_06: Oh, all right.
- 1:11:01SPEAKER_06: You want to go first, or do you want to just meet the stuff?
- 1:11:03SPEAKER_06: Oh, yeah, yeah.
- 1:11:04SPEAKER_03: Oh, I go first.
- 1:11:05SPEAKER_03: Uh, I'm I'm gonna sell special teams.
- 1:11:08SPEAKER_03: Okay, I'm I'm actually gonna give the special teams an A plus.
- 1:11:12SPEAKER_03: They they had good returns.
- 1:11:14SPEAKER_03: Uh, they did a good job of bringing down the guys, even when they pond it.
- 1:11:18SPEAKER_03: They they had good field goal position on ponds, they actually blocked the field goal.
- 1:11:24SPEAKER_03: Uh, I mean, special teams did a great job.
- 1:11:27SPEAKER_03: Offense, I'm gonna give an A and defense, I'm gonna give a uh B.
- 1:11:31SPEAKER_02: And I'm gonna change my grade on defense.
- 1:11:33SPEAKER_02: I'm sorry, I gotta get them an A minus.
- 1:11:37SPEAKER_02: The reason I say that, and the reason I say that is because they held Seattle to one of 11 on third down conversions.
- 1:11:45SPEAKER_02: Very true.
- 1:11:45SPEAKER_02: That's big.
- 1:11:46SPEAKER_02: That is that is big.
- 1:11:49SPEAKER_02: And like I say, the only third down conversion they got was the touchdown pass to JSN.
- 1:11:54SPEAKER_02: So I I I gotta go back and get them an A minus.
- 1:11:59SPEAKER_06: Well, I ain't doing that, but anyway, I know you ain't.
- 1:12:02SPEAKER_06: I know you ain't.
- 1:12:03SPEAKER_06: I'm definitely not doing that.
- 1:12:06SPEAKER_06: I'm gonna give the offense an A.
- 1:12:10SPEAKER_06: No, I'm gonna give the offense an A plus.
- 1:12:12SPEAKER_06: To go down there in the hostile environment with all that noise and everything, and to silence that crowd, I'm giving them an A plus.
- 1:12:20SPEAKER_06: Now, let's get over here to the defensive side of the ball.
- 1:12:27SPEAKER_06: Now, I'm going to give the defense.
- 1:12:30SPEAKER_06: I'm I'm teeter tattering on a B and a B minus, and I'll tell you why.
- 1:12:35SPEAKER_06: We had a lot of big plays, but we had a lot of big penalties.
- 1:12:40SPEAKER_06: And because of those penalties, I can't give you penalized for penalties.
- 1:12:45SPEAKER_06: You can't, I'm just saying, you know, penalty, penalized, same thing.
- 1:12:49SPEAKER_06: Don't look like that, Plank.
- 1:12:50SPEAKER_06: You make me look like I don't know what I'm talking about.
- 1:12:52SPEAKER_06: But anyway, you you you take away, you take away a sack from Montez Sweat, who coming off of his drug uh conviction, right?
- 1:13:05SPEAKER_06: And you get that costly face.
- 1:13:08SPEAKER_06: Every penalty on defense is an automatic first down, yeah.
- 1:13:12SPEAKER_06: So although they didn't convert on third down, they converted some other downs because of penalties.
- 1:13:18SPEAKER_06: So I'm just gonna stay at a B for right now.
- 1:13:21SPEAKER_06: You could have got the minus, but I I'm in a given mood because of the win.
- 1:13:26SPEAKER_06: All right.
- 1:13:28SPEAKER_06: The special teams gets an A.
- 1:13:30SPEAKER_06: Santos hit all of his field goals, his extra points.
- 1:13:33SPEAKER_06: You know what?
- 1:13:34SPEAKER_06: I'm gonna go A minus because one thing about Santos is he keeps kicking these line drive kicks when he's kicking the ball off, and now the the return team is able to get more yardage because the ball's not in the air long enough, and so it messes up our coverage.
- 1:13:52SPEAKER_06: Uh, coaching staff, I'm going to give an A to the coach of staff, and there's a couple reasons why.
- 1:14:01SPEAKER_06: The Bears played that whole game yesterday without Richard Smith, their linebacker coach, who had a health issue and could not travel with the team.
- 1:14:11SPEAKER_06: Ben called a good game, DA called a good game, and so uh hopefully Richard Smith is well enough to come back to practice this week, and um that's my grades.
- 1:14:25SPEAKER_05: Okay, but you know they don't give up 17 points, right?
- 1:14:32SPEAKER_06: Plain.
- 1:14:33SPEAKER_05: Okay, stop.
- 1:14:34SPEAKER_05: I'm sorry, throwing it out there, bro.
- 1:14:39SPEAKER_06: Play, play.
- 1:14:41SPEAKER_06: Listen, the the the defense did well yesterday, but that Tyreek Stevenson touchdown, all those penalties, that that averages out a little bit, somewhere in there, somewhere.
- 1:14:53SPEAKER_06: I mean, they would have they would have only given up 10 points if they didn't if you know you could be arrested for being a peep and time.
- 1:15:03SPEAKER_06: You could look into somebody else for being a peeping car.
- 1:15:07SPEAKER_06: Oh hey, hey, hey, what you do on your own time is your business.
- 1:15:12SPEAKER_06: You brought it up, man.
- 1:15:13SPEAKER_06: That's your fault.
- 1:15:15SPEAKER_06: You could be arrested for being a peeping time, man.
- 1:15:18SPEAKER_06: Or you can get burnt, not the VD burnt, but you can get burnt.
- 1:15:24SPEAKER_03: Hey, quick, that's that's a valid point about defensive penalty nullifying a stop and giving uh offense additional plays because sometimes that's the difference of where your team started the ball when they punt, which could you're right, versus like you get a penalty for 15 yards, you had just got a sack, for example.
- 1:15:46SPEAKER_03: Okay, you give a personal foul that moves the ball 15 yards.
- 1:15:50SPEAKER_03: The team moves the ball a few more yards.
- 1:15:52SPEAKER_03: Now, when they punt, they're pinning your team back sometime to the five-yard line.
- 1:15:57SPEAKER_03: Versus, if you didn't get that penalty, they punting, and maybe you're starting at the 30.
- 1:16:02SPEAKER_03: So that's a very valid point because on some of those penalties that did happen where the bears got pinned back far, and it was after that penalty had happened because you're you know, they didn't really convert too many third downs, but man, it still feels good to come here talking about wins and how dominant our team is, and the biggest thing outside the wins is we know we got our coach and our quarterback, and to actually see people in the national media talking about a bears quarterback is in the top five, is almost insane.
- 1:16:38SPEAKER_03: Because we we're talking about our quarterback, if we're talking about top five, it'd be top five and worst quarterbacks in the league that yeah, not the top five.
- 1:16:47SPEAKER_05: I didn't know how to act because I heard Troy Aikman giving praise to the Bears.
- 1:16:52SPEAKER_05: I was like, okay, what's going on?
- 1:16:53SPEAKER_05: He must be playing for another contract now.
- 1:16:57SPEAKER_05: Because Troy Aikman on generally ever had nothing good to say about the Bears, especially not Caleb.
- 1:17:02SPEAKER_03: Uh, he's about to be let, yeah, he's about to be let go from his contract, uh, right?
- 1:17:06SPEAKER_03: Because I think, yeah, they're bringing Joe Buff back, but they're not bringing, if I remember this right, they're not bringing Troy Aikman back to the sound like they're making good moves.
- 1:17:14SPEAKER_02: Can you put Simeon comment up before we go?
- 1:17:17SPEAKER_02: Let me ask you guys real quick.
- 1:17:19SPEAKER_02: Is this the first time in our lifetime we are a team overall?
- 1:17:22SPEAKER_02: We're able to overcome penalties where before we couldn't recover.
- 1:17:27SPEAKER_02: This ain't the first time, but it's been a long time.
- 1:17:29SPEAKER_02: It's been a long time.
- 1:17:30SPEAKER_05: Yeah, I don't remember what the last time was.
- 1:17:32SPEAKER_02: It's been a long time.
- 1:17:33SPEAKER_02: We have my brother said we have never had that in Chicago.
- 1:17:38SPEAKER_02: Well, I mean, people still gotta remember the 016, the 05-016 that went to the Super Bowl against Indianapolis.
- 1:17:48SPEAKER_02: Yeah, that was a pretty good football team.
- 1:17:50SPEAKER_05: Yeah, that's what they were.
- 1:17:52SPEAKER_02: That 2010.
- 1:17:55SPEAKER_02: Yeah, that 2010 team was a good football team that lost in the in the NFC playoffs when Jay Cutler got hurt.
- 1:18:04SPEAKER_02: So, I mean, it's it's just been a long time, and it just hasn't been sustainable.
- 1:18:09SPEAKER_02: That that's all, you know, we would have a good year, then we'll have four bad years.
- 1:18:14SPEAKER_02: We'll have two good years or uh a mediocre year and a good year, and then another three bad years.
- 1:18:20SPEAKER_02: So this ain't the first time, but this is the first time I can say that I feel like we have a core of players not only signed to the team, but they're here for a long term.
- 1:18:36SPEAKER_02: I mean, we're talking about Luther Burton, we talk about Luther Burton, uh Roma Dunze, uh Costa Loveland, Caleb.
- 1:18:44SPEAKER_02: You know, Caleb, you know, we got all these guys, we got all these guys that are young and signed, and we know barring any injury, they can't do nothing but get better.
- 1:18:56SPEAKER_03: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:18:57SPEAKER_03: Hey, this is part of when Quick says trust the process because the Bears.
- 1:19:03SPEAKER_03: I mean, I don't want to talk too long, but the Bears didn't fall victim to what they would normally do.
- 1:19:09SPEAKER_03: The Bears would have normally in this circumstance put together some team, uh, some vets and overpay some people and bring in some guys and have one good year, and then have three or four bad years, but then all your players are old, and you repeat the cycle.
- 1:19:26SPEAKER_03: That's why what you're saying, trust the process.
- 1:19:28SPEAKER_03: If you look at all those guys you name, it's not one guy you name that's over 25 years old, or the people you name all these guys 25, 24.
- 1:19:36SPEAKER_03: I think Bookers, 23.
- 1:19:37SPEAKER_03: So, your core of your team are young, which makes a difference on how longevity.
- 1:19:44SPEAKER_03: And another point I wanted to make, I was trying to think when was the last time that the Bears had a coach?
- 1:19:49SPEAKER_03: It might have to go back to Mike Dicker, where his first two years and Mike Dicker's first two years might not have been good.
- 1:19:54SPEAKER_03: That they first two years was good.
- 1:19:57SPEAKER_03: We have had coaches where their first year was good, then they sucked the rest of the years, or we had them where it was good the second year, right?
- 1:20:05SPEAKER_03: Because it took Lovey about third season before they played good, then they would be bad.
- 1:20:10SPEAKER_03: That was one of the reasons you know, I don't want to get on that part about lovey, but we never had a consistency where a coach started off well and he got better the next year, right?
- 1:20:19SPEAKER_02: And it's so many, and I know we got to go, y'all, but it's so many examples of that.
- 1:20:23SPEAKER_02: Y'all remember the the 2000 team with Dick Geron where they went 13 and 3, and we got a lot, yeah.
- 1:20:29SPEAKER_02: You know, Mark Tressman, his first year, I think they went 12 and 4.
- 1:20:35SPEAKER_02: You know, um uh 12 and four.
- 1:20:39SPEAKER_02: You know, so so so you're right, you're exactly right.
- 1:20:42SPEAKER_02: This is the first time that we actually got a coach that we know that's gonna be better in his second year, or consistent at least.
- 1:20:51SPEAKER_05: And hats off to the GM year.
- 1:20:53SPEAKER_05: The GM made all of those plays, and he got those players.
- 1:20:56SPEAKER_06: So, what you got quick?
- 1:20:58SPEAKER_06: Hey, uh, just so you guys know, I remember when we had Jones here as the head coach, and guys wanted him to take over the team, and I was Thomas Zone.
- 1:21:07SPEAKER_06: Yeah, what's his name?
- 1:21:10SPEAKER_02: Thomas Brown, Thomas Brown, Thomas Brown.
- 1:21:12SPEAKER_06: I'm sorry, Thomas Brown, and I was like, We need to we need to reach out to Ben Johnson to see if he could come to Chicago.
- 1:21:20SPEAKER_06: We need a young guy, get some younger guys in the room, get some younger guys with him and try to trust the process.
- 1:21:27SPEAKER_06: All right, hey, out of bounds tomorrow.
- 1:21:31SPEAKER_06: Hey, we're gonna be talking about a little bit more this band.
- 1:21:33SPEAKER_06: We're gonna be talking about this band.
- 1:21:35SPEAKER_06: Hey, just a sneak peek, we're gonna be talking about that crazy game tomorrow, too.

- 1:21:41SPEAKER_06: We're gonna talk about that.
- 1:21:42SPEAKER_06: I I looked it up.
- 1:21:44SPEAKER_06: That was the highest scoring game in high school history.
- 1:21:47SPEAKER_06: History ever.
- 1:21:50SPEAKER_06: Yeah, we're gonna do it.
- 1:21:56SPEAKER_05: Hey, thank everybody for team scoring.
- 1:21:58SPEAKER_05: I saw one game, one team beat the other team 233 to nothing.
- 1:22:04SPEAKER_05: In Illinois, so 233.
- 1:22:08SPEAKER_05: 233 to nothing.
- 1:22:12SPEAKER_06: Wow, what's they playing?
- 1:22:13SPEAKER_06: Sagle, you can't do that on Mac.
- 1:22:18SPEAKER_05: I'm just saying.
- 1:22:22SPEAKER_03: Yeah, they were touchdown worth 21 points.
