I'm going to go out and be the best quarterback I can be and get the most out of my potential.
The test of a quarterback is where his team finishes.
In order for this team to win the game, the quarterback has to throw the ball.
My height doesn't define my skill set. To be a great quarterback, you have to have great leadership, great attention to detail and a relentless competitive nature - and I try to bring that on a daily basis.
For me, it's not about sacking the quarterback. It's about changing the course of the game. It's causing a crucial fumble at a crucial time. It's making a tackle for a loss when the opposing team needs to gain one or two yards for the first down. I look at myself as a sudden-impact player.
You're sacking them, you're bagging them. And that's what you're doing with a quarterback.
It's a very easy thing to say, 'Go get a backup quarterback. ' Now tell me where to get them. You just can't dial them up.
As a quarterback, can you throw it where you are looking?
A wide receiver like me wouldn't have won. The quarterback - or even the running back - always wins.
Aaron Rodgers, starting quarterback - that just has a good ring to it.
If there's one thing I can't stand, it's a quarterback who thinks playing quarterback is just about passing.
I want to make sure that everyone knows, God has been my greatest quarterback and I've caught a lot more than 84 touchdowns with Him!
If I believe that I became the best quarterback that I could possibly be, the best football player that I could possibly be. . . That's how I'm going to measure my career as a success or not.
The guys that are out there now like Calvin Johnson and Larry Fitzgerald they're making $16 million, $15 million a year, and I'm not looking for anything like that. A lot of that money goes to the quarterback position and rightfully so.
Young quarterbacks do well because they have a great defense.
I think a good quarterback or a good linebacker, a good safety, even though you have a lot of bodies moving out there, it slows down for them and they can really see it. Then there are other guys that it's a lot of guys moving and they don't see anything. It's like being at a busy intersection, just cars going everywhere. The guys that can really sort it out, they see the game at a slower pace and can really sort out and decipher all that movement, which is hard. But experience certainly helps that, yes.
As a quarterback, there's no better way to finish your year, in winning a Super Bowl, than with a touchdown pass. The chances of that happening, by the looks of most of the Super Bowls, is a very rare chance. Fortunately for me, I had an opportunity.
When I read the script [of Glee], the whole premise was that all the high school kids were being cruel to this kid in the wheelchair, and then the quarterback comes along and has a heart of gold and takes him out of a Porta Potty. That's too often what I see in media, that the characters with disabilities are there to make other people seem like heroes for treating the character with a disability with respect. Those are the kinds of roles that are out there.
Quarterbacks are always ready.
A good football coach needs a patient wife, a loyal dog and a great quarterback - but not necessarily in that order.
