I think Brian Hoyer is a good quarterback.
Aaron Rodgers, he throws that back-shoulder throw so well.
If I have my feet under me, I'm a much better passer.
There is no defense against a perfect pass. I can throw the perfect pass.
Any quarterback that understands what the offense is really about is going to succeed.
How good is Missouri quarterback Chase Daniel anyway? ... to me, Daniel's brilliance has nothing to do with the big numbers he puts up more or less every week. Howie Long once gave a great explanation of what it was like to get beat by quarterback legend Joe Montana. He said it was like getting knocked out in a pillow fight. You never felt the blow. And you were all kinds of mad afterward. That's as good as any description of Daniel. ... So what does Daniel do? Something right. On every play. In chess, grandmasters will tell you that it's the most innocuous-looking moves that are deadliest.
You have to take certain truths. One truth is that to have championship success in the NFL you have to learn to deliver the ball from the pocket.
Great quarterbacks, good quarterbacks, make plays.
Obviously Tom Brady is a great quarterback.
The better quarterbacks are real consistent. Rookie quarterbacks are not.
You look at the best players in the league, the best players at quarterback - I mean Drew Brees, Peyton Manning, the top names - none of those guys are throwing it through a brick wall. They'll have touch.
Whenever Elway was on the field, you never counted the Broncos out.
In the pocket, you do have some protections, but you get out of the pocket, and defenders' eyes get big. Sometimes you learn that the hard way.
Sometimes you can have the quarterback and no system. Sometimes, you can have a system with an average quarterback and do well.
