Quotes and Sayings about Quarterbacks

Michael Irvin - January 2020

At the quarterback position I would say mental is just as important as physical.

I think I could describe the perfect quarterback. Take a little piece of everybody. Take John Elway's arm, Dan Marino's release, maybe Troy Aikman's drop-back, Brett Favre's scrambling ability, Joe Montana's two-minute poise, and, naturally, my speed.

We're playing in this very, very cool arena where Bayern Munich plays, kind of the country's top soccer team, and it looks amazing in pictures. The chance to go across to another country, play a sport that I love... there's 3 million ticket requests for 67,000 seats. So the place is gonna be rocking and if it's anything like what I see in those German Bundesliga games this is gonna be one of the most epic games that we've ever played in. So I'm super excited.

There's no such thing as individual isolated success in football. You can see it in basketball, Lebron takes the ball off one rim, he dunks it on the other, he does it all by himself. You see it in baseball, Aaron Judge snaps that home all by himself. And golf, Tiger drops that putty, does it all by himself. In football, you don't do anything all by yourself. It's always about the man next to me.
