Brian Urlacher Quotes
-
No one gives us respect. They do, but kind of begrudgingly. But we haven't beaten anyone in the playoffs yet, and we need to win playoff games to get respect. Everyone in the room knows that.
-
It would be nice to give us a chance to get the ball rolling and get a little confidence.

Only time will tell. We feel like we have good players. We brought Moose in, we brought Fred Miller in on offence...
-
We don't give up a lot of yards, just too many big plays.
-
It's a good problem to have, if you call it a problem. And it is not a problem. Any time you have a chance to get an off week, it's a good thing. We have given ourselves a good opportunity to rest some guys. It would be nice to sweep our division. It would be great to get 12 wins, but so would having everyone healthy for a playoff game.
-
We have to play better. If we think we're a good defense, we better start showing it. We didn't make plays when we had to. We gave up a couple of big plays. We had a chance to win the game. We were in the game the whole time and found a way to lose at the end.

Jamal's a house, ... I tried to tackle him in the Pro Bowl a couple times and he's not an easy guy to bring down. He's a big boy and he runs hard. We've got our work cut out for us. We've got to stay in our gaps and be sure tacklers.
-
It's a little different trying to run the ball with eight guys in the box. The Vikings haven't had to face that because of the Randy Moss factor.

Look at the teams we played when I was not there - Indy, Minnesota, Green Bay, Philadelphia - that's four playoff teams right there. I don't think it's a significant statistic. We just have to play better when I'm not in there or play easier teams.
-
We know about the tradition here and all that good stuff. We've just got to make plays. That's what it comes down to. We know there's a lot of good defenses here in the past, and we feel like we're one of those teams.

I love when people pick against us because we just go out and prove them wrong. In training camp, there was no doubt in anyone's mind we had the personnel to do it. It was just a matter of staying healthy and going out there and doing it. Knock on wood, we stayed healthy, and it's been a fun season for us so far.
-
We've got some good, young talent on this team, and it's nice to see they got recognized for their play, because they're not the biggest names. There are a lot of guys out there who probably get more recognition from the media, but these guys go out there and play hard every week, and they put it on film, and the players around the league and the coaches around the league saw that. That's why they're going.

-
This is tough for our team, too, because he was one of our leaders. One of the emotional guys out there on the field. He's just an unbelievable guy. At least he didn't injure himself bad. I know that's a blessing for him.
-
I think we know we are No. 1. I don't think yards equal wins. Yards are big, but points are the main thing that matters. We did not play very well and gave up a bunch of yards and I think we lost our No. 1 status, but points are a big deal and I think we hold that.
-
I love football in the rain. That is what it's all about.
-
Steve Smith, thats what happened to us. He just kept making plays. We had a plan. We never really doubled him. We ran a lot of Cover 2, and obviously that didnt work out too good for us.
-
We haven't won any games in the playoffs yet. If we can win, I'll definitely be happy to be compared to them.

People don't think I'm big enough to be mean. I don't look big enough, but I am.
-
It feels like crap right now. Disappointing. But I guess you could look at the bright side and say we're a young team and all that good stuff. It's going to hurt for a while.
-
I like to think of myself as a regular guy, except I play football for a living. I try not to be an arrogant turd out there.

All I can do is go out there and play hard and try and help my team win, and that's what I'm going to keep doing.
