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

0:13.3

I'm JJ Stankvitz, joined at Halis Hall by Cam Ellis and John Moon. Mullen. Moon, you're fighting through an injury.

0:19.3

You've got a sling on your shoulder,

0:21.8

but it's playoff week. So you've got to fight through it just like Eddie Jackson and

0:26.5

Alan Robinson, Taylor Gabriel, Anthony Miller, those guys are going to have to fight through it.

0:30.9

Yeah, I'm on the injury report, but I'm denying everything. So yeah, we've got to play through

0:36.0

pain. Limited participant at Hallis Hall, John Moon-Mullen.

0:39.9

We got, hey, we got a playoff game to preview. I want to start with this.

0:44.4

Mitch Trubesky, the last time he played under the lights, in the spotlight, was against the Rams,

0:50.0

where he threw those three interceptions. Statistically, it was the worst game of his career.

0:59.6

Since that, Trubisky is not thrown an interception. The only turnover he's had is that fumble against San Francisco,

1:04.2

where he maybe didn't make a great decision on the play, but the play called for him to make that decision,

1:08.0

whatever it was. Other than that, he's been really good. He's taken some shots down field,

1:11.8

hit Alan Robinson, hit Taylor Gabriel with some deep balls against Minnesota and San Francisco.

1:16.8

Where do we see Trubisky going in this playoff game?

1:23.0

His first career playoff game, the first really important do-or-die game he's played since high school.

1:24.9

Where do we see him going, Cam?

1:30.8

So I think this is – this playoff game might be a sort of fun microcosm of what his season is because you're right, he's playing as good as he's played all year, the last civil stretch.

1:35.3

But, I mean, the playoffs are obviously so different.

1:37.5

And Chubisky at times has looked a little bit jittery or overexcited at the start of games.

1:42.4

So quite frankly, I expect one or two pretty large overthrows in the first quarter,

1:46.9

and then I don't see why he wouldn't be able to settle down.
