A Quote by Bob Seger

I was a runner, a failed quarterback, third-string quarterback, but in track I was a 2-miler.

I said, 'If the quarterback is a runner, it'll work.' But if your quarterback's not a runner, in my judgment and in the judgment of most of the people, it wouldn't work without the quarterback running the ball.

Frank Broyles

Any defensive coordinator is worried about two things: a running quarterback and a deep ball. You know, don't get beat deep and don't let the quarterback run, because a big part of your defense can't account for the quarterback as a runner, so he gets a free run.

John Madden

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

There's obviously a push to protect the quarterback, but you have to give the defensive players a chance. All of the quarterback has to do is pull the ball, and he's a runner. How's the defender going to know if the ball is pulled or not?

Jeff Fisher

If we can string together some wins this year, maybe I'll be a close second-or third behind Bart Starr-on their favorite quarterback list.

Aaron Rodgers

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

Everybody goes through situations like this. A tipped ball, a shoe-string tackle on a third-down scramble by the quarterback where he has 40 yards to run.

Jeff Fisher

If you can have a really good coaching staff, and you can have a really good young quarterback and do a really good job in player personnel and string together multiple successful drafts, your window is not small in the NFL because of the quarterback.

Jeffrey Lurie

I've never had a quarterback run-driven offense. We don't run designed plays where we snap the ball directly to the quarterback and he's just running it. If the defense is cheating and overcompensating for your running back, then the quarterback needs to keep (it) honest.

Chip Kelly

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