This is what gives you kind of hope, specifically when we talk about creating plays on defense, turnovers and the like, pressure on the quarterback.

If there are passing situations, you can put Matthew Stafford in, like obvious passing situations, and you can have both those guys on the field and not know if C.D.

Gardner-Johnson or Kyler Gordon is coming your way.

It can create problems.

And now we go all the way to the other side of the locker room where I see a large, massive crowd of reporters gathering around a band by the name of Colston Loveland, who, in case you didn't know it, was the Bears' leading receiver this year.

In the game against the Packers, eight catches for 137 yards.

That is an average, kids, of 17.1 yards per catch, a long of 29 that day.

Here's Colston Loveland.

When people reference you as a star or a rising star or compare you to some of the great tight ends in the league like Travis Kelsey, how does that hit with you?

It's cool for sure.

It's a blessing, but I've got a long ways to go to do that.

So I don't really think too much of it.

because I've still got to go out here and prove a lot.

I haven't done that much, really, when you look at it.

But it's cool to get the recognition for all I've done.

I think our group, like we've joked around in the beginning, the more you talk about it, yeah, it's going to happen.

You know what I mean?

So we just don't talk about it.

And I'm sure if you were a losing team, only had a couple wins, I'm sure it would be tough.

Maybe some people are getting fired or whatever.
