Yeah, I think we want to be an attacking, aggressive style of defense.
00:09
I think we want to want to take the fight to the offense and
00:11
not let the offense dictate the tempo to us.
00:15
We're going to be aggressive.
00:16
We're going to challenge everything.
00:17
We're going to play the game the right way.
00:19
We're going to play a tough, physical, you know, brand of football.
00:23
And I think the brand of football that you come to expect at the Chicago Bears
00:28
is, yeah, I took a look a little bit at the pieces on defense.
00:33
I felt like there were some pieces in place.
00:36
You know, in particular, I think there's some things that we have to have in
00:39
the secondary that I like.
00:41
I think there's some pieces at linebacker that I'm encouraged by.
00:44
I think there's a couple of spots up front that I feel like we've got some players.
00:48
So I think the foundation is there defensively.
00:52
And I think, look, when Ben asked me if I would be
00:57
interested, there was a couple of places that I felt like had the pieces in
01:03
place to potentially be a really good football team.
01:08
And Chicago was obviously one of them.
01:11
And so I was excited when it came about that this was the job that
01:18
he really wanted, and this was the job that he was able to get.
01:21
And I was excited when he wanted me to come along with him.
01:24
Yeah, look, I think we're always looking for talent acquisition,
01:29
player acquisition, guys that we feel like can come in and
01:32
fit into our system that can help us grow as a defensive line.
01:37
But what our job is as coaches, our job is to develop.
01:43
And so we're gonna take the pieces that we have in place.
01:48
We're gonna add the necessary ingredients that we need to create what we need to be
01:53
able to do from a defensive standpoint.
01:56
So
