And I think one of the biggest things that I realized in his time with you guys so far is he's got a little dog in him. For me, the biggest takeaway was we're not trying to win. We're trying to blow people out. I ain't never heard nobody say that. Y'all were the scariest team in two minutes in football. Honestly, I almost want to say the fourth down conversion was probably the craziest one. She was like, man, this game is about to be over. and then you put your head down

everybody goes crazy

like what did happen down conversion was probably the craziest one. I was like, man, this game is about to be over, and then as soon as you put your head down, everybody goes crazy. It's like, what just happened? You see replaying, it's like, bro, that's crazy how he just always finds away. Really, just week after week, it seemed like we started winning those close games and started really pulling it together. So I think that was probably the defining moment. It's like, no, I got the same my attitude.

It's not the same old bearers and that we can win those close games.

Welcome to the show.

I got Jalen Johnson today, Chicago Bears Corner.

I thought he was great.

I thought he was really entertaining, really smart.

You know, I'm happy for guys like him. Like he's been in league six years.

It's his third head coach. Yeah, I kind of went like went through that early in my career where

you know, coach after coach and you know, we weren't winning a lot. And I can certainly identify

with the feeling of a guy like, you know, Jalen Johnson or somebody on the Chicago Bears who's like waiting for that coach to come along and breathe some competency into the program to where you wake up in the morning and you want to run into the office. You want to run into the building because you're excited about football again. I'm not saying he wasn't excited about football before,

but you know, if you if you've been on the Bears for six years,

it's been a, it's been a tough go.

You know, there's been some, there's been some good wins and that sort of thing,

but no sustained success and certainly not that kind of hope you want as a player.

And I think Ben Johnson brings that.

And it really came out and talking to him.

And he's such a smart guy.

I just really enjoyed hearing him talk scheme

and about some of the other players on the Bears.

So if you're a Bears fan, you found this podcast.
