Bears assistant coach and former Detroit Lions coach Rod Marinelli had a rough go at it last season but maintained the respect of his players through his work ethic and attitude. Here is what he says about adversity:
"You become more creative, you become more determined and you embrace that," he said. "You embrace that. Adversity is something special. It really is, if you embrace it. If you run from it, it'll wear you out. But if you embrace it, try to find a way to get better - that's what I tried to do."
