WR Kenny Stills

(I know it’s only been four weeks but it seems like you guys are gelling really well with QB Jay Cutler.) – “Yes, I mean that’s our job, right? With any quarterback that’s in, we’ve got to get on the same page as him if we want to get the ball, if we want to win games. So you see us spending extra time before practice and after practice, like I said before, and just communicating in the meeting rooms. That way we’re on the same page and we can connect and make some big plays.”

(What is it that QB Jay Cutler brings to the table take that you guys really embrace and like here thus far?) – “He’s just a veteran presence in the locker room, in the meeting rooms, on the field. He’s been through it, so he just brings that experience to table for us.”

(You saw us talking to WR DeVante Parker. You were teasing him a little bit. Just talk about his development that you’ve seen being in the league a little bit longer than he has, just how he’s developed this far?) – “It’s exciting to see the way DeVante’s developed these past couple of years and we’re all anxious to see what he can do this year. Obviously he’s had a great preseason and a great training camp and the buzz is building around him, so he’s going to show us what he’s got on Sundays.”

(How would you describe Head Coach Adam Gase the play caller?) – “That’s difficult. I mean I feel like he does whatever he has to do to make sure we win the game. Last year when we were struggling in the pass game, we went to the running game and then when people tried to stop that stuff, we went over the top. He’s a little bit unpredictable and he’s going to do whatever he’s got to do with the pieces that he has to make us win.”

(Head Coach Adam Gase came here with the reputation of being pass happy but then RB Jay Ajayi goes and runs 1,300 yards, so obviously there’s more to it than that, like you’re saying.) – “Yes, I think to your average football fan you’d think he’s a pass-happy coordinator, and then to the analytics people that pay attention, you can see he’s more balanced than people think.”

(How anxious are you to see what this thing looks like for real? Do you have an idea or how anxious are you to see what it looks like for real?) – “What’s that?”

(What you guys have on offense.) – “I mean we know what we have. It’s about all of us just going out there and playing together, playing team offensive and defensive football. We know what we have, so we’ve just got to go out there and do our job.”

(How would you feel about playing Thursday night?) – “I’ll play whenever they tell us to play.”

(How difficult would that be to ramp up three days early?) – “We play professional football. It’s football at the end of the day. If they tell us to play tomorrow, we’ll play tomorrow. I’m good with whatever they’ve got.”

(Is there much buzz among the guys about the uncertainty of the situation?) – “We know that there’s potential, or people talking about the game being moved or cancelled or whatever; but all we can do is handle what we can handle, and that’s going out there and getting prepared for this game, and when it comes it comes.”
