Cardinals-Bears one-liners

Cardinals coach Ken Whisenhunt paid homage to former coach Dennis Green's famous "They are who we thought they were" speech during his press conference following the 41-21 victory.

Said Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald of QB Kurt Warner's five touchdowns, "He was making the right reads and getting the ball to the guys who were open. When we're clicking like that, it's hard to stop us."

Said Cardinals G Deuce Lutui of getting punched in the face by Bears DT Tommie Harris, "I don't know what happened. I'm a lovable guy, easy to get along with. Now, my whole face is swollen. We've got facemasks, thank goodness."

The Cardinals rolled up 182 yards rushing, their most in a single game since 2004.

Cardinals QB Matt Leinart was intercepted on a play that he didn't run in practice last week.

Bears TE Greg Olsen had three touchdown catches, but couldn't celebrate his big day because of the final score.

The Bears lost S Al Afalava and CB Charles Tillman to injuries, and Afalava will have an MRI on his shoulder Monday.

Said Bears DE Alex Brown, "For this to work, we have to believe it's going to work, and we have to have a sense of urgency, but we don't have that right now. I don't know what the [heck] is wrong, but we have to change it."

Several Bears defensive players had harsh words for DT Tommie Harris after Harris was ejected for punching Lutui.

Mike Mulligan of the Chicago Sun-Times thinks that all the blame for Sunday's loss falls at the feet of Bears coach Lovie Smith.
