Jay Cutler Ball Quotations

We were confident all night. We moved the ball well, and our offensive line did a tremendous job.

I got it done without a lot of guys around me. I didn't have All-Americans scattered across the field. I had to adjust. I had to deal with pressure. I had to get the ball off. I think it's going to help me at the next level, having gone through adversity.

If it comes down to me leading them in the fourth quarter and putting the ball in my hands, I'll take my chances. I'm an older guy, and we have a lot of new guys. Hopefully, they will listen to me so we won't be on the roller coaster ride that we were on last year. We have to change our state of mind.

It was unbelievable. There is so much difference between now, last year, and two years ago. You can't put it into words. Just all the experience, being able to keep your composure and in the fourth quarter being able to deliver the ball when you have to.

Coming out I was a little shaky and a little nervous. The ball was a little hard, but I got into the flow of things and started to feel more comfortable. I started to forget about all the people on the sidelines. But that's what comes with being a quarterback. You have to deal with the pressure.

The offensive line has played exceptionally well. And with everybody doing what they're doing, it's made it easy on me, ... Everybody's doing what they're supposed to do and a little bit more. We have people who can make big plays, so all I'm really doing is handing the ball off and getting the assists.

I've had a good time with these guys. I know their speed and know where they're going to be in their routes, and I know they were going to catch it for me. It was cold, and the ball was real hard. But it was fun. There's been a lot of anticipation up to this point. But now I can just relax and start working out again.
