Yeah, no, I don't think this is about bare weather or cold weather or anything else.

I think this is about Ben Johnson.

And every time you turn around, you find out, oh, yeah, you know, he showed him that Super Bowl comeback back in training camp.

Oh, well, he's been saying this all along.

And he has this idea.

I mean, it's literally every time you turn around, the guy has done some kind of magical coaching thing.

and it makes you kind of appreciate him even more, and that's what we're finding out here.

When they do a walkthrough, they do it indoors.

When they go onto the field, they do that because, in part, they want everybody used to what it's like on game day when you're out in the cold, and there's no heaters, and the players may complain about it, but that's probably for the best in terms of what they're going to face.

On Sunday.

So is there a home field advantage to that?

You're damn right there is.

Because they're practicing in it.

And because they've got the crowd is going to be on their side.

And we'll get into that a little bit later.

I just think that the attention to detail that Ben Johnson has been doing all along, and as Dustin said, the weather has been up and down in Chicago.

We've had some really cold days, and we've had some fairly warm days, and it looks like it's made a turn for the cold.

which is kind of expected at least through February.

So I get it, and I understand it, and I like his attention to detail, and this is just another example of it.

I also like the idea that guys are like, oh, man, we need a heater, and then they find out why they don't need a heater.
