Ben Johnson showed his players film of Super Bowl LI to teach resilience and the value of battling until the end. Grady Jarrett and Joe Thuney, who played in that game, offered contrasting perspectives about lessons learned from the comeback.

Chicago scored 25 fourth-quarter points to win 31-27 and advance to the divisional round. Johnson emphasized that games remain alive despite large deficits and urged players to avoid defeatist thinking.
