Thanks everybody.

You're listening to the best of the bears.

He's it for the touchdown and the Chicago Bears have taken the league.

A weekly mix of 670 the score's best NFL talk to get you ready for game day. Day.

What times? I actually saw a clock over.

Clay Harbor. Handled it with poise and class. The fitting of veteran. Football analyst for Chicago Sports Network. Former NFL player. I'm not a quarterback. I'm a tight end, but I've watched a lot of tape. I've been in meeting rooms with Tom Brady. I've been in meeting rooms with Drew Brees. I've been in meeting rooms with Michael Vitt. Quarterbacks know what they can do and what they can't do, and I know what a quarterback can and can't do, and when you're supposed to expect them to be able to be successful. Clay Harbor with Mully and Haugh on 1043, The Score. Mully and Haugh, 1043, the score, always fun to get a chance to talk to Clay, and he does a great job with

Mr. David on the pro football show, and he's here with us now. Clay, just an absolute pleasure.

How are you? I'm doing good, man. Been spending the week up at Hallis Hall.

Yeah. Taking me back. We're in the midst of a mini camp.

Ben's working these guys hard.

They're getting a lot of good work done.

Obviously, they're in shorts and t-shirts, David, but you still can't see a lot.

You can, and you've made some really good observations.

I just wonder collectively, when you look at where they are defensively, have you

been impressed?

Have you been surprised? What has stood out? What it stood out to me is I think there's a noticeable difference in the versatility of the bears. And that starts with the defensive backfield because now, and even with the linebackers, now when you've got a guy like Devin Bush, he's a little bit undersized, but you just see his lateral quickness. Like this guy can guard a tight end. You go back to Kobe Bryant, had a big interception yesterday, stepping in front of Jaday Walker. You can see how he can go from deep safety all the way up to a box safety. He's a former cornerback. You see those skills. He can cover. Dylan Thineman, he's still getting his feet under him, but you can just see the speed and the range that these guys have.

So this versatility, those skills he can cover. Dylan Thinemann, he's still getting his feet under him, but you can just

see the speed and the range that these guys have. So this versatility, even without Kyler Gordon out there, I think it shows. And you see Dennis Allen sending some blitzes that maybe he wouldn't have last year because of different skill set. Kobe Bryant's a guy, like you said, he played He played corner, he played corner.

He can match up on a guy one-on-one.

Devin Bush is a linebacker.

You go back to his combine, he ran a 4-3-9. He can guard a tight end. He can probably even stick with a slot receiver for long enough to send a zero blitz. So instead of having some of these bigger guys, these lumbering guys, some of these guys made plays. But it just changes the structure of your defense, what you're able to do, and it opens up your call sheet now because you have guys that can cover for longer. You're not scared about matchups. If it goes in motion, the slot receiver to the left side, like, oh man, now he's going on our safety or our linebacker you're not as worried so that opens up

the book and i think we'll see a more creative dennis allen because of it i i was really amused by
