backs came convinced defensive four front played
That's when I was kind of convinced we had something special. The front four were able to get after the quarterback. The defensive backs played well. The linebackers played well. It kind of came together.
business knows tries work
Now, he knows it's a business. He just comes to work every day and tries to work hard.
almost ball defense games images mirror playing solid teams turn winning
Teams have been able to get after them. We're kind of in the same situation. We're almost mirror images of each other. The offenses haven't probably been doing as well as they want to, and the defenses have been playing solid and they've been winning on defense the games that they've won, same with us. What they're going to give us, we're going to give them. We just can't turn the ball over.
almost defense good mouth playing plays taste team victory
You play good defense and you almost kind of have the taste of victory in your mouth and to get it snatched away like that is really embarrassing. That's not the way that I play football. That's not the way the defense plays football, and as a team that's not the way we should be playing football.
ability
On paper, we have the ability to be a top-three defense. That's on paper. Now we have to go out and do it.
city good offense top
We didn't show up today. It's a big disappointment to us that we didn't play well for the city of Chicago. Our offense did a good job. But we didn't play well as a defense, top to bottom.
offense played
We didn't show up. The offense played great.
ears lead pin playing team
A team like the Colts, they have the lead most of the time, a big one, so they get to pin their ears back and go. We haven't been playing with a lot of big leads.
difference game mentally
There's a big difference mentally between being 1-1 and 0-2. This, to me, is a game we have to have.
again bears bounce cat chance continue continues credit disprove everybody field nine picked super team
For me it's because this is the team that everybody picked to go to the Super Bowl. And now it's like they are a cat with nine lives. They continue to bounce back, and everybody continues to still give them more credit than they deserve. This is a chance for us to disprove everybody again and get back on the field and show everybody the Bears are for real.
good job keeping offense
For a while, he was all the offense we had. And he did a good job of keeping us healthy.
people says
It says a lot about people who make predictions.
everybody expect faith gap position
Everybody has faith in everybody else that everybody is going to be in their position and be in their gap and make the play. The linebackers expect us to be somewhere, and we expect the linebackers to be somewhere.
cover pressure since team throwing
A lot of it was (Carson Palmer) just throwing it up. Sometimes you've just got to cover somebody. At the same time, I guess, since it's a team effort, we didn't get enough pressure on the quarterback.
