Give me the right people and I don’t much care what organization you give me. Good things will happen. Give me the wrong people and it doesn’t matter what you do with the organization. Bad things will happen.
I have been in many teams that have had loads of talent but did not make it through and been with teams that did not have that much talent and ended up being champions.
The team only goes as far as their quarterback takes them.
It's always good to bat at the top, where you get more opportunities, but sometimes crucial 30s and 40s can be very helpful for the team. Ultimately it is a team sport. Personal records don't matter much if your team ends up on the losing side.
When the key players in your team perform well, the team does well, too.
You can't criticize a coach until he fails to win with players he recruited.
In my heart of hearts, I thought, if we get a 1-0 win and the team doesn't perform well, that would feel good.
I can have three touchdowns and 200 yards, but if we lose the game, what's it all for?
The players make the manager, it's never the other way.
If head coaches weren't important to the success of a team, then owners wouldn't fire them all the time.
I don't believe you name a starter until the starter wins the team.
