00:00How big of a loss do you think it is if Jaquan Brisker doesn't play and how concerned should
00:05the Bears be about a player who is entering concussion protocol for the third straight
00:09season? Yeah, it's that would be a little bit of a concern not just to the Bears but to the
00:15individual that but the big thing is with the NFL and with any sport my grandson's going through it
00:21now three concussions in one calendar year that raises a major red flag and that's what two is
00:29dealing with a little bit right now at Miami so it's not what happened in this game but when they
00:36look at his history how often has it happened because when you get one it's a lot easier to
00:41get the second one and the third one that's proven so is it a loss to the team sure it is I think
00:47what he brings besides his playing ability if you ask me right now who are the three big emotional
00:54leaders on this defense he's definitely one of them you know I mean he just because he plays
00:59aggressive and he's tough and and he's uh he's right on the edge I would call him a edge player
01:05as far as how aggressive he is so um his his passer rating against believe it or not is also
01:13among the highest oh really oh he's been really good in that area who's going to take his place
01:19Jonathan Owens would be the likely candidate but they may have to move things around they have uh
01:25who's the other kid that plays they got another guy Elijah Hicks okay yeah yeah Hicks could be
01:30that depending on what they do with Kevin Byard maybe it'd be situational yeah but they do have
01:34some options that they trust guys with experience okay yeah so and and you know what they miss him
01:40most in my mind is the run game right because the minute that someone makes a couple first downs
01:46and they're running the ball what does Flus do here comes either three deep David with
01:51brisker in the box right as a run defender or if they're going to bring your pressure
01:56he's one of the first guys if I'm a quarterback I got to know where Bruce sack big sack the other
02:01day big sack the other day huge sack
