Muhsin Muhammad Quotations

We have a pretty good defense, and eventually we're going to come around as an offense and help them out.

Personal stats mean nothing. I'm playing for Super Bowls. Anything short of that now is meaningless.

I expect to encounter a fired up team.

He doesn't have to win the whole game by himself. The offense like a finely-built car. The steering wheel's have to work, the brakes have to work, the wheels have to work. He's sitting in the driver's seat. He just has to drive the car and let everything work for him.

He's a good player. He's exciting. I think he would definitely add a dimension to the return game. Of course, you want to have high-caliber players on the team, and I'm not sure if the Bears are going to get a guy like that or if they are really chasing a guy like that.

He's a confident kid. That's good because you've got to have a little swagger.

Well, you know, the team that was picked 32nd last year was San Diego and they made the playoffs and the worst team the year before that was Carolina and we were in the Super Bowl. So maybe it's a stroke of luck.

I think the coaching staff down there is one of the best coaching staffs in the league. They get you prepared to play games. If there is any piece of film that is going to give an advantage, they provide it for you. We expect them to be prepared to play.

I think he's going to be a good quarterback in this league, and I think he's expecting that, too.

We've had a lot (of trouble) in Carolina. One of the guys is doing a whole lot of time. There's a lot of serious stuff that went on. ... We just put it behind us.

We've got a guy who can really play now. We've got a guy that has a knack for making plays. He's a natural leader. I think we'll have a pretty good chance to win with him.

We showed he is not just a deep-route runner, that he can run the intermediate routes, too. That was great to see him come out and catch some balls, move the sticks and do some other things. If I am drawing a bunch of attention and he is single-teamed and can get open, use it.

To be honest, I like what I see. We have great potential, but we need to turn the potential into production.

We should be able to be more balanced. We'll see how it works out. We've got a lot of growing to do. We've got a lot of time to make up.

Don't do anything differently than you've been doing. Don't change your routine. Prepare the same way. Be the same guy. He's got everything to gain and nothing to lose. He's got no pressure on him at all.

I seriously don't think Rex has anything to lose this game. He's one of the most poised guys I've ever seen play. ... He has a chip on his shoulder.

Probably one of the things that I'm most proud of is that Steve is really maturing as a person. I think he's becoming a well-rounded person and I think that is more important than the athletic achievements.

This is an exciting time right now for all Bears fans, as well as the coaches and players. We really want to seize this opportunity. When you look at it, it's a three-game season now.

This is an emotional game, and I got a little carried away. I apologized to Kyle because I was totally out of character. I don't play that way; I don't act that way.

They stole one. He's got borderline cockiness, but he's got enough humbleness where you don't think he's arrogant.

It took guts for Kyle to even try to throw that. I probably could have gotten him a little more separation to make the throw.

I'm looking forward to catching some passes from Rex and just making the offense better and more balanced. Throughout the season, we've predominately been a run offense. I'd like to see us be more balanced so that when we go to the playoffs, we're not one-dimensional.

I just think he'll be comfortable and he's got a lot to prove, too. He's going to be playing with a slight chip on his shoulder.

He's just a great coach. And his staff is known as the best around the league. Foxy knows what he's doing.

How long did it take for the eyebrows to come back down when we cut Steve?

I can deal with it. I felt a lot of pressure, too, when we needed to win every game down the stretch and everybody in the park knew they were going to throw the ball to me. I think I handled it well.

I began praying as soon as he hit the field.
