“You do what's best for your team, ... throw passes and get (the quarterback) killed. Are you kidding me? For what? That's ridiculous.”
Herm Edwards
“Because he's such a great pass rusher, teams are going to slide their line to try and protect [the quarterback]. In this defense, you can't display your protection right away because you don't know where he's coming from. It constantly makes those [offensive linemen] check at the line because they have no idea where he's going to line up.”
Vonnie Holliday
“Not going to put the quarterback in harm's way, go back there, line up in shotgun, try to throw passes and get him killed. Kidding me? For what? Ridiculous.”
Herman Edwards
“But the three most important positions on a team are the quarterback, the left tackle and the pass rushing end.”
Gil Brandt
“He threw a couple of high-school balls on Sunday, ... You don't expect an NFL quarterback to throw passes like that. If the Dolphins' defense had better coverage, they could've broken the game open.”
Cris Carter
“I've always been the coach on the team; all my teams, ... Point guard, quarterback ... regardless I was a player-coach.”
Charlie Ward
“He was in constant pursuit of new challenges. He chose to be a passing quarterback when a pass was used in desperation.”
David Friedman
