Welcome in to another edition of the Under Center podcast here on NBC Sports Chicago.

I'm JJ Stankovitz, joined, as always at Hallis Hall by John Moon-Mullen, and a pod debut

for Cam Ellis, who you're going to be reading his stuff from Hallis Hall this week.

Cam, real quick, you wrote about Mitch Trubisky and what Matt

Nagy had to say about him on Wednesday. The Bears don't quite know what exactly Trubisky's

status for this weekend's game against the New York Giants will be, but what was your takeaway from

what Matt Nagy had to say today? Yeah, it sounds like not a lot has changed. If I was a betting man, I would say Chase Daniel probably starts on Saturday.

Sunday. Sunday. Sunday. Yeah. I thought it was, something that sort of stuck out to me was when Nagy said that he didn't quite understand, no, Chubisky's pain level where he was. That sort of stuck out in a bunch of different

quotes. But it sounds like sort of it's the same routine of they're waiting to see and

they're practicing some extra precaution. Yeah. And, you know, Matt Nagy has mentioned multiple

times that this is kind of the same plan. It's similar to what they did with Khalil Mack and

Alan Robinson, both of whom

who missed two games. So probably looking at Chase Daniel here on Sunday, Moon.

Yeah, I mean, you don't even have Tribusky doing Limited, which is throwing on the side or just

throwing warm-ups and the little one-on-ones or whatever.

They want to take care of their guy.

This is a franchise quarterback.

So I don't know, and as you said, he doesn't factor in how good or bad the opponent is, which he shouldn't.

But if Trubisky can't even throw casually, again, we've talked don't know. We've talked about this last week is injury versus pain.

So even if it's pain, if they exacerbate it, and now, they don't want to be in this situation going into the Rams game.

So, yeah, you don't want to make it worse, and you've got to protect the kid from himself a little bit.

Look, the New York Giants do not have a good defense. That is pretty abundantly clear,
