everybody lead playoffs prove
I think the way I go, the D-line goes. That is the way I have to think about it. Everybody on the D-line has to think that way. But me, that is how I think. I feel like I have to play well, especially in the playoffs -- in this three-game run. I have to prove my worth. I have to lead out there. It's not just statistics, it's doing the right things.
came everybody felt knew looked ours rightly schedule somebody super team test
We knew we had nay-sayers, and rightly so. (Carolina) was a team that everybody said was going to the Super Bowl. We looked at their schedule and looked at ours and felt this was really their first test of somebody that came to play.
certain everybody field geared pass periods speed stuff toward trying work
We have certain periods where we work on pass-rush drills, one-on-one, speed and stuff like that. Really, everything is geared toward the pass rush. Everybody is trying to get up the field and try to get in the quarterback's face.
everybody expect faith gap position

again bears bounce cat chance continue continues credit disprove everybody field nine picked super team
For me it's because this is the team that everybody picked to go to the Super Bowl. And now it's like they are a cat with nine lives.

We didn't show up today. It's a big disappointment to us that we didn't play well for the city of Chicago. Our offense did a good job. But we didn't play well as a defense, top to bottom.
offense played
We didn't show up. The offense played great.
biggest dictates rush secondary work
You have to work on that first step, getting off on the ball. That kind of dictates what's going to happen. And then there's a secondary move. But the biggest thing to rush the passer is that first step.
bears car deserve league run sentence understand whatever
You have to understand that the '85 Bears run this city. This is their city. They've got commercials, car deals. Whatever they want to do, they can do it -- and they deserve it. To be put in the same sentence is an honor, but I think the '85 Bears were in a league of their own.
