How does Ben Johnson’s motivational message after the 59‑point game affect the Bears’ preparation?
Hell yes, man. Bears and Vikings coming up on Sunday. And I have to to start with this kind kinda serious. It's kind of fun too, but I gotta ask you, do you think that when your CHGO teammate and everybody's friend, Mark Carmen, brought up the fifty nine points to Ben Johnson that Ben Johnson wanted that question? That he was waiting for that question to just shoot it down for everybody once and for all.
One hundred percent. Come on. You know that's the message that he's trying to get across to his team this week. Um, I know a lot of people out there like to take their shots at Karm. I mean, Grody and I like to do that too. Um but like that wasn't him I didn't view that as him dunking on Carm. I viewed that as him taking the opportunity to get a message across that he very much wants to get across. We've scored zero points this week, or we haven't put up a point this week, whatever he said. It's a new week, fifty-nine points last week. Great. Moving on to week two. That's a good message for your team. And I and I and yes, I think he was prepared for that. The best part though was the look away, right? Like the the as soon as he got it he got done with his sentence, he quickly was like, All right, who who's over here is it?
Who's next? Like it was almost disrespectful,
but it wasn't disrespectful. I enjoyed it. Oh, but let's play it really quick here for people who maybe didn't hear it.
Put up fifty nine that m like guys might feel like, you know, we're in a great place, we got this. Do you do you sort of feel like you have to guard against any level of We haven't put up any points this week.
Okay. A likely story when you wanna also be the highest scoring offense of all time. So I I'm pretty sure you need that fifty nine to get to your tally, Ben. You know, Dennis Allen, Adam, did this in a a little bit more of a diplomatic way yesterday, actually. When he talked about how every week is different, you basically hit reset, you start from the beginning and you're trying to address the concerns of that week. Which I also understand. But if you didn't learn anything about your personnel last week, I don't know what we're doing here.
Yeah, I mean look but that's a Ben Johnson mantra. I mean he's been saying that too since he got here, that every every week uh, you know, is its own entity. That's honestly that's that's Belichekan. I mean that's that's what made Bill Belichick so great, is that he was he was not just married to one way of doing things and saying, Hey, this is our identity and this is what we're gonna do no matter what. That when that trickles into scheme and your game plans, that's a problem. Your identity can be established and you do that every single week.
