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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
By running routes on air, with any quarterback, if I did routes on air with a D-II quarterback, I should catch most of the balls.
If you have to name me starting quarterback to go be a starting quarterback, then I probably have some issues I need to address.
If there's one thing I can't stand, it's a quarterback who thinks playing quarterback is just about passing.
I wanted to be a quarterback. I used to like Johnny Unitas, the old quarterback for the Colts.
I guess that's one of the things about playing quarterback. The quarterback gets most of the recognition.
I was a runner, a failed quarterback, third-string quarterback, but in track I was a 2-miler.
The quarterback is the leader of the team and the quarterback is the one that has the ball in his hands every single play.
I look at the quarterback and the receivers. You look at the quarterback, the formation. I focus on the passing game and react on the running game. You look at it over and over, then sooner or later, it becomes like a movie. You ever notice how you quote movies? That's all film watching is.
You can make as much as the top-paid quarterback in the league when you're the Dallas Cowboys quarterback if you do take less.
Fletcher Jones, is that not a quarterback's name? My kid is going to be a quarterback for the Hamilton Tiger Cats one day.
I love getting after that quarterback! That's my deal: sacking the quarterback.
