everybody said what happened to marc trestman. well, he was up in montreal. then we talked to phil emery before. he said i looked at this guy, looked at him closely and thought he would be the best fit. but it is odd, cris, when you see a guy who all of a sudden here's the new, hot young assistant coach. whatever happened to him? then he becomes the coach of the chicago bears at 57. >> cris: doesn't he seem like a good fit with jay cutler. jay cutler, he's an emotional guy and we've seen everything before. and trestman is a bond trader. you know, he just looks straight ahead. he's a teacher. he's putting together a game plan. he's keeping him from getting hit too often. and the relationship with wins is growing rapidly now. >> al: you think about it, he took over -- it's a good team. i mean lovie smith had a good deal of success, took them to one super bowl. and lovie's team last year were 10-6. they were 7-1 and injuries helped to do them in. but phil emery felt like, hey look, we needed to get the offense better, basically. >> cris: he said i walked into an

the bears jumping out and marc trestman is getting it done up there. >> on to the steel city. we will see you next sunday night. a wrap from the great northwest. until next week, al michaels and cris collinsworth and michele tafoya, our whole gang, headed by greg godel i didn't recollect those and saying so long tonight from seattle. . >>> the battle in seattle is over. 49ers, seahawks, and that is se centurylink field. and a one-hour weather delay and a final score of 29-3 in favor of the home seattle seahawks. they beat up the 49ers. i am jim, but we brought some experience to get you through the next 60 minutes, or almost 60 minutes. phil by my side, and 17 years in the nfl, and guys, this is was a tough one to swallow if you are a 49er fan. look at the score, doesn't look good for the 49ers. >> no, it comes down to turnovers. and seattle got the turnovers tonight. they were more physical than the 49ers. that's something that the 49ers are not used to. but this team has got their number right now. >> yeah, bill, you are absolutely right. it came down to what teams are going

charles tillman is a go, and the bears will need him-- while jay cutler's been very good for marc trestman'sar, the lions have a lot of weapons themselves including their quarterback matthew stafford... maybe the biggest test for the bears defense so far. they have a quarterback who can pull the trigger. they have one of the best receivers in the game. >> final tune-up for the blackhawks before the regular- season... they're playing washington tonight, they open the season against the caps on tuesday-- and the caps are flying back to d-c after the game tonight, coming right back on monday... and there were more extenuating circumstances before the night was over... on the hawks side, a great evening for nick leddy, letting it rip from the point-- his second of the night... but of course, the game goes to overtime, 3-all... didn't get to a shootout, though-- in the ot, sheldon brookbank put one on net and andrew shaw right there to shove it back in for the game winner... hawks take it, 4-3... same two teams play for real tuesday night.... so dale sveum's talking to travis wood before the game

as marc trestman pointed out monday, the bears could easily be 0-2 right now, which means their margin very small. they can't afford dumb mistakes, and as rich king reports from halas hall, they haven't been making very many. rolling along at 2-0 not a single penalty and a complete turnaround from a year ago but both wins coming at home and the bears working out with crowd noise. will be much more difficult to avoid pre snap penalties. colby in ellis and solid count and people will been all over the place and defense and different places at different times that will get our attention focusing on the snap count. those are different ways to measure ourselves. and make their first appearance on a national stage and it comes on the road. j. cutler says is it a key test to see with the bears stand now. first road game and the noise will be a problem for us offensively. to travel and young guys on the offense and a new system and just see how the communication goes with the noise and keeping our boys out there. it will be a good test for us. pittsburgh has a decent defense but the offense is
