I prefer to go for two when down by 14 and scoring a touchdown

This is one I've come around on. I think you go for two just because you then know exactly the circumstances that you're kind of going into games with... now you get two opportunities to get those two points. And if you're able to get 'em on the first time, now you obviously know that your six points down with the ability to score and win on that next extra point.

This is a statement of coaching philosophy.

Justin Fields is a special player who is going to be a franchise-changing quarterback for the Bears

I'll tell you what [Justin Fields] is, he's a special player... I think he's gonna be, you know, a a franchise changing quarterback for that organization and something we're gonna have to deal with two times a year for hopefully a long time. If I, I get to be the head coach of this team for a long time, so can't say enough good things about where he's at and his development this year.

Justin Fields was eventually traded to the Steelers after the 2023 season, so he did not remain the long-term franchise quarterback for the Bears.
