Muhsin played well and made some plays, ... I thought the other receivers played well and (running back Thomas) Jones played really well. Muhsin is a veteran guy who has been there and played in big games before.

Orton's got my vote.
I'm a young guy, I'm looking for improvement every week. I'm not arrogant enough to say that I don't have anything to work on I've got a ton of stuff to work on. Every game that I am on the field is an advantage for me. I have a ton of stuff to work on.

I really like this young quarterback (Kyle Orton). He's very efficient. The speed of the game doesn't bother him. He'll play better than what people think he will as a rookie.

The Bears have described Orton as mature beyond his years, and although that's a good thing, it's worth noting that just because Gary Coleman was mature beyond his years, it didn't make him Sir Laurence Olivier .
I'd like to make teams pay for not taking me. Maybe that will fade eventually, but for now, it still stings.
