The Chicago Bears could win it all.
At least that's what quarterback Jay Cutler thinks about the Bears (8-3), who have won four in a row heading into Sunday's matchup against the Detroit Lions (2-9).
Asked whether the Bears were good enough to win the Super Bowl, Cutler said, "I think so. You've got to believe that. If you don't believe that, there's no use playing right now."
National analysts such as Mike Ditka said the Bears are the top team in the NFC at the moment, and Steve Young said the Bears could advance to the Super Bowl.
Cutler said the Bears' 31-26 win over the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday excited the team, but it hasn't provided a sense of satisfaction.
"I think the team's excited," he said. "I think everyone's got their feet back on the ground now. But you could tell what it meant to that team in the locker room afterward [by] how excited everyone was.
"I think in the back of everyone's mind we got a little bit of respect by beating a team like that. But like [Julius] Peppers said, and Olin [Kreutz], and some of those other guys, and [Brian Urlacher]: 'We're far from finished.
