The quarterback is the leader of the team and the quarterback is the one that has the ball in his hands every single play.

Russell Wilson knows who he is. He’s not a running quarterback, he’s not a throwing quarterback – he’s an athlete back there playing the quarterback position. He knows that, he understands it and his team allows him to be who he is.

Charles Woodson

Playing quarterback is hard enough.

Chris Hogan

I know perfection in this game is very hard to do and pretty much impossible, but it's what I strive for because I think it's what you should do as a quarterback and as a leader.

Davis Webb

I guess that's one of the things about playing quarterback. The quarterback gets most of the recognition.

Carson Palmer

If there's one thing I can't stand, it's a quarterback who thinks playing quarterback is just about passing.

Bill Parcells

I think, as a quarterback and a leader, it's not necessarily what you do in the limelight. Obviously, you want guys handling themselves in an appropriate manner for the organization and the team, but you need to be who you are. If you're a guy who does that and can be a leader, and naturally that's what you want to do, awesome.

Nick Foles

It's hard to be a leader when you have to make hard choices and when you have to do what's right, even though people are not going to like you for it.

Alicia Garza

I look for a quarterback who can run and not a running back who can throw. I want a quarterback who can beat you with his arm. We are not a Tim Tebow type of quarterback team. I am not going to run my quarterback 20 times on power runs.

Chip Kelly

I loved the idea of playing quarterback on Friday Night Lights in high school, that whole experience. I wanted to be a Division I quarterback, that became my goal growing up, other than being a professional hockey player.

Davis Webb

I'm playing quarterback, I'm playing football, and I don't try to make it more than that.

Jared Goff

I think for me, or for anyone who plays the quarterback position, it's almost an unspoken word when you think about leadership. Some guys can be a leader and be a running back or a lineman, or wide receiver, strong safety, or linebacker. But when you speak of quarterbacks, it's automatically a default that you're supposed to be a leader.
