What insights does Olin Kreutz provide about the Bears-Rams matchup?
Olin Kruitz there at the center. I like this guy. You know that he's going to be doing something. Olin Kruitz. I'm concerned. Olin's one of the best centers to ever play a game. There's nobody tougher. Nobody who was a better leader. That was his football team, and he ran the locker room. 14-year NFL veteran. Did you see what Olin Kruitz did there? He moved him right there. He got the first down before the ball was ever snapped. That's a wily old center. Makes moves like that. Football analyst for 670 The Score.
I mean, guys, this game for the state of Illinois, for the city of Chicago, for old Bears, Pat, like me and you, right, who have to wear glasses to even see our screen nowadays. You know, but a first playoff win since we were on the field. And we don't have to say that anymore. Olin Kruitz with Rahimi Harrison-Grody on 670 The Score.
Olin Krutz joining us now. We're happy to have him on the Midday Show. It's the playoffs. We get Olin for a bonus visit. He joins us via the Circa Resort and Casino Outline, CircaLasVegas.com. Olin, part of our pre- and post-game coverage, our score football analyst, and we are happy to have him. Olin, I laughed and said, I'm not sure at what point during the week that the playoff win finally set in. Win for you. Do you feel like it finally set in that they won that game?
that they beat the Green Bay Packers, especially the way they beat them, right? Where you're watching the whole game and you're saying, there's no way they come back and win. But of course, man, I mean, you've watched this team all year and you're thinking, I had people texting me from all over the place. And one guy was like, this game's over. I knew they weren't going to win. I said, you might want to wait. You might want to take your time with this football team because they never stopped playing. They never stopped competing. And look, man, I've been enjoying it as much as everyone else, them beating the Green Bay Packers. And it's nice to go into like Starbucks and places and, you know, the supermarket and someone wearing a Green Bay jersey.
And we're finally one up on them.
I feel like even in your interviews and your appearances on our show this week and last week, I feel like that with a couple of the other players we've had on, you guys are amped up. Playoffs is another gear, even for analysts. I feel like I wanted to hit somebody after I heard you guys talk the other day.
Yeah, it's exciting. And it's the Green Bay Packers. And you're looking to beat them. And it's exciting for the city. And, you know, I've been analyzing for a while now. We don't get to analyze a lot of playoff games, right? And we talked about, you know, the last time they won a playoff game is when we beat the Seahawks in 2010. I'm tired of talking about that win. And it's good for the Chicago Bears to be relevant again. It's good. for the Chicago Bears to be in the playoffs. It's good to have a team to talk about, talk about winning, not talk about, okay, what are they doing wrong? What are they doing wrong up there at Hallis Hall? And how do we find a new coach? And how do we get the offense to put the ball in the damn end zone?
Now we have a quarterback who competes, puts the ball in the end zone, scores points, finds a way to beat football teams. It's been a fun year. It's not just good, but it's great to simply have another game to play when everybody else is sitting at home. Olin, looking ahead to this Rams game, I am fascinated by the possibilities just because of what has already transpired this season, and it feels like this might lean more towards what we saw against the 49ers, two offenses getting busy because I've been watching the Rams defense, and while they're good up front, I feel like there's some tendencies for them to get blown up down the field. Yeah, in the secondary, right? The first thing you do when you turn that film on is you say, hey, people are scoring points on them in the last six games.
People are attacking that secondary and finding ways to move the ball down the field and score touchdowns.
