Bears' quarterback Kyle Orton claims that he has grown as a player and isn't the same guy that was 12-6 as a starter over the last three seasons, according to WSBT.com.
"I've been in the system a lot longer. I've been in the NFL a lot longer. And I'm a better pro," Orton said Wednesday.
Lovie Smith named Orton the team's starter earlier this month.
"I'm excited. This is a great chance for not only myself but the offense to go out and make a statement against a very good defense," Orton said.
