Chapter 1: What is the significance of the Bears vs. Packers playoff game?
But the premier locker room show in Chicago, inside the locker room, because it is Mark Brody's birthday, because it is Bears Packers three, because it is a playoff game. You get not one, but two. Count them two inside the locker rooms. Not to be confused with inside the clubhouse or hit and run.
I was very scared that you were going to say we're going to skip the low brass, but you didn't say that. So I'm good now.
Well, yeah, you got also the low brass hasn't even hit yet.
That's a lot. I'm just making sure it hits.
That's a Tyler Ferengel question. We got to wait for the low brass here. In the meantime, Brody's just getting more and more amped.
I am. I'm bouncy over here.
His life force is increasing with each hit of the trumpet chorus. There it is.
Legs are shaking.
All right, so now that we've taken care of that, it is time for Mark Brody to take us inside the Bears' locker room.

Chapter 2: How does DJ Moore feel about his first playoff experience?
I think he was waiting for me to ask my usual ridiculous questions. I think he was looking at me like, okay, when's it coming? I know Grody's going to be asking me something. And I didn't ask a single question during the scrum. There was a reason I didn't. Do you want me to take you behind the curtain a little bit?
Wait, should we go behind the curtain? Yeah, let's hear the rest of DJ Warren.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's get on with the show.
Beating the Packers, it just seems to resonate for you. Can you talk a little about that? Why so much of it?
Why? Because they're always chirping. It's always like some talking going on somewhere, somehow, during the game, before the game, always. And, I mean, it is what it is. I mean, the rivalry, it speaks for itself. But the players that's on both sides, on both teams right now, I think are pretty amped about this third matchup and just getting out there, make it loud as possible.
Do you ever talk to the younger players about settling down in some of these big moments, these big games, you know, emotionally?
No, because you can't. Like, why would you tell? You wouldn't tell a lion not to go feast. Like, what? Like, you can't tell them that they can't go do something. So just let them play free and just play fast at the end of the day.
You like that, baby T. You can't tame a lion. You got to let it roll.
DJ, if you were a lion, what would your name be?

Chapter 3: What advice does DJ Moore give to younger players for handling playoff pressure?
Is that what it is? I'm figuring you out, Layla.
I can't figure me out.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
I love it, though. I love that DJ Moore is finally going to get to participate in the playoffs.
Yeah, but he can't give you anything. It's like, what do you want me to say to these guys? I got nothing.
And I think the best part is the people who ask them, they do the work in the locker room. They ask the most questions, like a Phil, for example, or you. You just get a more genuine answer.
Absolutely, yeah. When players start to trust you, they'll open up a little bit and they'll play your game. Just really quickly, I actually do want to mention this because I did say on the air we were trying to get and we thought we were going to have DJ on the Take the North podcast. Because of my absence from Hallis Hall in the last week and a half, it hasn't worked out.
The reason you didn't hear Dan or I asking questions is because we thought maybe we were going to talk to him after the scrum, just Dan and I. So we were pulling our punches, so to speak, pulling our questions and holding back. Didn't happen maybe next week, but I kind of screwed up. The holidays kind of screwed it up. So it's my bad, but hopefully we'll get DJ on at some point in time.

Chapter 4: What are DJ Moore's thoughts on the Bears' rivalry with the Packers?
Whatever deficiencies he has had in coverage, it's not like he's been bad in coverage, but we've seen him exposed at times throughout the year. You're right. He's bound to come up with a fumble recovery, an interception, busting up the tush push as he did, or at least getting the fumble there.
Well, but here's the other part of this is that I remember talking to Nashawn Wright the week before the Packers game the first time around. And I said, you know, based on the fact that Jordan Love tends to throw up these hop throws, you know, off his back foot, that's part of his game. Now his arm is good, so he gets the ball there, but it ends up being a bit of a 50-50 ball.
And I was like, so you got to like your chances. And he's like, yeah, absolutely. But then what did we not see in that game? We didn't see Jordan Love throw that ball. And I think it was simply just scouting. If you know that that's something that the opposing team's quarter is really good at and it's a ball you have a propensity to throw. Yeah. Do whatever you can to stay away from that.
And I think that's why we saw more crossers, more slants, stuff like that that wasn't necessarily a go up and get a ball because Nashawn would be the one getting it.
I'll go one better on that. Everything you said is absolutely true. But also, why would I throw that ball you're talking about when I can be in the pocket with no pressure on me? I'm very comfortable.
There's not going to be any pressure on either of these quarterbacks, by the way.
But part of it was there was pressure on him and he just got rid of the ball too quick. Like they blitz looked a lot. They blitz stunted a lot. They actually ran the blitz a lot. And he was like, okay, cool. There's an open part of the field here because you committed somebody else up front. Pass goes there.
He read the defenses very well. Is Sweat going to have a sack this week, Marshall? You notice I did not mention him in the portion of this program where I usually mention him. I think he will maybe get a sack.
I think he will. I think he will. I think he has to for a seven-yard loss on third down. I'm predicting it right now.
