| This quote's been attributed to a lot of guys:
"The coach knows I'm a hard-nosed player. If the coach needs me to run for a 3 yard gain, I get him 3 yards. If the coach needs me to run for a 5 yard gain, I get him 3 yards."
Of course, the human quote machine for American football was the late John McKay.
After a big loss, he was asked about the execution of his offense. He replied, "I'm all for it."
Another time he quipped, "We didn't run the ball well today, but we made up for it by not tackling well."
