" All right let's. Asked that we go that's fine music let's get out the odds are five and welcome in the man himself -- the man with the plan Jerry Angelo the Bears general manager Jerry how are you. Real good guys good morning good morning to you it makes -- jump out of this we appreciated than I guess happy contract extension for the quarterback it is our."

" Extension is dried us I don't have enough candles. Put on anything might soldiers -- have to leave -- best."

" You know out of it it's obviously these are all the certificate deposits cashed out --"

" Yeah. I think. I think will be able Alou -- for a billion you know the meals."

" what you know and it's funny because. I love the move for a couple of reasons Jerry one I liked the idea. That they even though he's still under Patrick for a couple Beers you extend that and and you do it in this year when you have some cap room and now you can go out. And and work on building a team around him and you have that peace in place. Out once you made the trade for him. You made the commitment the commitment was made in terms of the the draft picks and Kyle Orton and all that so you know it was just a question of time in. And it is fair as well because. He's going to be thirty years old when that tactics up and get a chance of not one of things worked out you can go to them again and it just seems like you starting in its process here."

" It was a it was a sound approach it did in Durham you'll. Bowl commercial talking about our. You know his representatives. And in -- agreed to -- with death -- right Mike we didn't make. That there -- commitment imported doesn't like him as a touched on it. -- probably yesterday you know -- the uncertainty of the CPA. Presently. It gives us clearly moving toward. And that was very very important -- Probably was the impetus or at least one of the things stood played heavily on our mind and you know -- it benefited again. Everybody concern and we wanted. This would be a real feel -- Four OJ or football team more fans are extra truck and we do feel we accomplished that."

" Jerry the feel good was the Jay Cutler story on not Tuesday but Monday there was a lot of romping and took a lot of calls got a lot -- obviously. But unhappy Bears fans and rightfully so after the experience and land on Sunday night. All three phases of the game had problems that comes off a bye week you think they'd be playing better than that. At this point of the season now where do you see this team that is it is that we thought would be what what do you need to be working on right now."

" Where are obviously who we can't be beat ourselves when you lose it's tough enough. When you lose the way we lost even makes it tougher but it and they are giving and have a credit to get a good football team they were in the playoffs but. Been desperately needed to do to win the game and there are that you are giving them credit. You know who who worked. They did to -- Sunday night but saying that obvious that we. Can't beat yourself I've never been with a football team that was inside the ten yard line three times with a Kmart with no points. So that was a first for me. -- we made mistakes should very opportunistic time to have a war kickoff. At a critical point in the game but again we just. You know that those were mistakes proposed the good news is those things can't be correct it. We your group of football team we can be a very good football team the one thing about our football team that's been consistent. Throughout this season that's very important to me. -- that we play with a lot of energy personal quick to -- this team we play four quarters between that we can't do -- no team can do on Sunday. It is to themselves and -- are always figured this year most games are lost on Sunday no --"

" Well Jerry -- that that's an excellent answer that question because that certainly was the case and look what's happened in the red zone. You guys have been successful in the red zone and I think people look at it and think that look at the failures that that have occurred and obviously three interceptions by Cutler. But you have been pretty successful in the red zone you just could've been great that's the difference I mean you have had these opportunities. Does anybody didn't Cutler's face about that how do you -- is have to be good gentle reminding he now has seven interceptions in the end zone in two years. And that's more than double anybody else in the league -- and it's I mean maybe just warn of that sort of caught a quarterback that sort of confidence. But that's and I know you know talking -- said with a one the the one and Sunday blamed himself said that he didn't give -- a chance to be able to see -- the safety was that that sent him to play was flawed. The other one there was a deflected pass it -- earlier in the year. I mean it's not. Like he's just given the ball away but man that's a lot over two years."

" It is Mike and Mike there's a fine line to -- kept -- you can't do you you can't take this where are there other supporters in. Make him feel that he can't make a mistake you. You know habits settle saying you're didn't. You could play the game keep from losing. To a fault and bureau. I'm understanding that we do feel that he has so a lot of talent and he could do things that most quarterbacks can't do children going to be -- some things that legitimacy audience. The added to the glory -- that. As well those -- car -- you're rewarding Medicare or Davis are. A few weeks ago when he made -- that are -- does to give it some Warner let them not too many guys in this what you're gonna make those kind of throw so that comes with the tour toward right. Sometimes you know you can't have the burst of both worlds. But I am -- you -- for -- when you're in the red zone you know or your gut fortunately you've just you've got three. Indicate degrees down there and objectives -- a learning process -- playing with. All new receivers he's getting familiar with your parents were still early in the season a mark -- 240 did prior dust getting -- looking at forty doing here. I know sensitive to that. To any quarterback would be but I don't see them being an acute problem for proper -- before."

" going into the season Jerry a lot of people question whether the offensive line -- going to be good enough and it's or otherwise it I think surprise a lot of people on the outside the organization that they played as well as he did. He retool that thing in the off season. We just had a caller on before he came on with those. Quashing they use of Frankel me out what what was intention when he went and got inside and where did you envision him playing and then Orlando Pace comes out of the scene and and now he seems to be that guy get a lot of criticism and and wondering if he's got a job another week and so -- as a response."

" Well you know we change or prototype of -- you -- our offer tomorrow we wanna get bigger people. At the guard position so we Saul Franco was a tackle for Carolina. We felt like Cuba Puerto typically speaking Brian that he would he -- or -- mole he's got long arms he's big. He's a powerful man in which he did in running our game. And he can hold off that was big to pepper types of pushing caving in the pocket that's what we want. One -- more sides so. We spent a lot of time in the offseason talking about that was our coaches and we all agree we have to get bigger -- when you look at our division. And more guards -- risk blocked. It it just makes sense saying that. There is going to be a learning curve than people have to understand with any player any position. You know we played some pretty good football teams and we played more on the road you -- you you talked about being baited. You got Cullen Jenkins to talk about the Steelers Seahawks have a very good defense particularly up front. The Lions certainly -- are formidable there and we played a real good program team that we play a more on the road in -- So there there's going to be some understanding with or those excuses absolutely not -- and those are reasons why you continue to work with the supporter. Because she's demonstrated the traits that we need to be successful at the position. In -- a strong. Player mentally he's a tough guy he's what we warning came into -- so that there is going to be you know learning curve. We're gonna hit some speed bumps along the way we understand that but we've got to hang tough together and we -- to get better up front."

" He's Jerry Angelo the Bears general manager of the man with a plan and obviously you know week we talked about it after. The Cutler deal Jerry just how popular move that was remains very popular and now you go out and use it. A second round pick and Gaines Adams and I thought he did. An excellent job explaining the philosophy people view it as a change in philosophy but you were telling us yesterday. That you're looking at both those guys young players with a chance to keep improving like guys that are within a certain age range. Where you don't feel like you're given away the future you're actually getting good young players."

" Right might -- in the other thing right there won't you won't work hard and some are we do these moves it's still value of the position. A value -- deaf player does obviously it's that we don't understand the value the quarterback. In our scheme. The value of death. Right defense event is probably the that you all would serve well back -- are under tackle. And -- writing him if you had to your work. Can prioritize and those. Would be my talked to reach him how you shake them up 12 -- three. That might be debated some. But again. We felt like we got a got a quality player obviously was a fourth pick in the draft so we hit some things well and coming out of college. And you they change the scheme warm so there were so congressional stationery that I thought well. We're sound in in determining maybe -- things -- going right for him and he was a good fit for us you know from -- yard. Our scheme standpoint and from the get might get that valued hard defined pass rushers so. Or this or some -- certainly there's there's risk there's risk when you take a draft pick and you know we feel like this -- say yeah good spot -- I told them just if he wants to be great. This is a great place for him because everything can be great -- here for that to happen."

" Jerry obviously Unita research librarians don't do your work somewhere close room everyone in criticized scrutinized and yesterday Warren -- volunteered solicit that day he said you can have Jerry Angelo and he went back and said that basically and figure aggressive enough GM I'm sure you've heard that where before. --"

" But I don't I don't nor you know that there are usually is debatable we don't have enough start more geared up to not commit Demitra also is this. I was a director of player personnel. From the Tampa Bay Buccaneers long term goal and we drafted towards. And arguably the best draft pick and I've been associated with him and we took a mark never seen one player. Carry your team the way he carried us out of the doldrums into the playoffs and then -- into Super Bowl. He's a great player. As some people might have so that was a little bit risky when we drafted mourned -- remember he was Astoria. Where if you teams we traded down. And then we you we took him and I couldn't be any happier. For a dead in the -- could find words forget that draft a -- over."

" We appreciate your time we know you're up against Clark but what's going out Tommie Harris I know they still not practicing full during the week. And we never really seen much of him on Sundays in terms of making an impact plays not bear fans are just wondering -- this time is Tommy the same Tommy is he healthy is he what's going out with him."

" Twelve Tommy kielty that's not an issue. -- in terms of our best car we've seen the questions during the game imposter porch to take. And they're sort Gilbert but he has the physical traits to continue to be a yum. Top rusher. -- Mets were really what we're looking forward Tommy to do for us on Sunday. And we haven't seen the consistency that they carry he would sit the the same thing. Apart so their broad -- tapes to tape. And you know you have to -- try to make plays all players know that then pulled just continued to bureau -- more government. We're gonna see that things that he can do on any real basis for four quarters."

" All right Jerry thanks so much of the time we appreciate it thank you Mike Bryan take Jerry Angelo the Bears general manager the man with the plan and he puts in an action and you know again taken Ira there was -- that's the correct way to do it no question about it he has no need to get anything. Impeaching pants with him is that were 326446760. Somalian --"
