Meet the coach tasked with turning the Vikings into 'situational masters'

The Bears were down by seven and down to one timeout last Sunday when Justin Fields completed a pass to former Vikings receiver Ihmir Smith-Marsette at the Minnesota 44.

Vikings cornerback Cameron Dantzler slipped to the ground after a stiff-arm from Smith-Marsette and recovered his balance as the receiver cut back inside and tried to juke Harrison Smith for additional yardage. Dantzler ripped the ball out of Smith-Marsette's hands, turning back toward the Bears' end zone as U.S. Bank Stadium erupted, and slid to the ground at the Chicago 45, ensuring the Bears would not get the ball back and sewing up a 29-22 win.
