As coaches we talk about two things: offense and defense. There is a third phase we neglect, which is more important. It's conversion from offense to defense and defense to offense.

Bobby Knight

In politics as in sports, the best defense is a good offense.

Charlie Kirk

Bobby Knight told me this: 'There is nothing that a good defense cannot beat a better offense.' In other words a good offense wins.

Chuck Schumer

In war the only sure defense is offense, and the efficiency of the offense depends on the warlike souls of those conducting it.

Mike Budenholzer

I think the NFL season starts with the first three or four games and all the predictions come out. You're either great on offense, bad on defense, great on defense, bad on offense.

Devin McCourty

A good football team plays offense and defense. You have to be aggressive and disrupt.

Vince Flynn

A lot of the better offenses sacrifice defense to be a good offense and I'm not interested in doing that.

Frank Vogel

I wasn't a bad basketball player, but I was far from the world's greatest. Good defense, no offense - that was me.

Chuck Connors

When you're desperate, it's good on defense because your hair should be on fire, but it's bad on offense.

Mike D'Antoni

It's football. The game hasn't changed. There's not tons of new concepts every year that go in. Offense is offense; it's our job to move the ball, to score points, and keep our defense off the field.

Josh Allen
