There's only 12 teams still alive, and we're one of them. But now it's lose and you go home. We're in the same boat as everybody else.

Our No. 1 goal is to win the division, and that's still probable. But we need to turn things around ASAP. There's a lot of games left. But week by week, the season is getting shorter.

You don't know what a guy does when you go home or what he does at night. As long as a guy is coming focused and ready to play football this week, that's all I'm concerned about. … You're going to have some adversity, but I'm focused right now on the Chicago Bears, and how to get this football team turned around.

I have a role. I go out there and try to execute my role on Sundays. If that role expands, it expands. If it doesn't, it doesn't.

Defensively, I think we've got to get off to a better start than what we have. I think we've got to go out there and set the tone early in the game.

We've still got to be prepared, go out there and put on the best show we can put on. It is a national TV game, so you want to get embarrassed on national TV, then you don't prepare yourself. You want to look like something on national TV, then you go out there and you do the same thing you've been doing for, say, the last seven, eight, nine weeks when we were making this run.
