“It is amazing how productive he is at only six feet tall.” — Steve Mariucci on Drew Brees on NFL GameDay Final on NFL Network

Week 1 (Sept. 13, 2009) – Quotable from NFL GameDay Final on NFL Network

(Airs Sunday at 11:30 PM ET)

“It is amazing how productive he is at only six feet tall.”

– Steve Mariucci on Saints QB Drew Brees, who threw for an NFL Kickoff Weekend-record six touchdowns

“Owens is chilling in western New York on VH1 and these guys are looking tip top.”

– Rich Eisen on Cowboys receivers, who had a combined eight receptions for 263 yards and three touchdowns

“That’s what you do when you lose your superstar receiver. It is not one guy, it’s everybody.”

– Steve Mariucci on success of Dallas Cowboys pass catchers

“Feeling Mario Williams rushing on the outside, he backpedals. I’ve never seen this before.”

– Steve Mariucci on Jets rookie QB Mark Sanchez, who completed a third-quarter pass to Jerricho Cotchery while backpedalling — rather than stepping up in the pocket — to avoid the pass rusher

“This is the best secondary in the NFL.  They are ball hawks.”

– Deion Sanders on Green Bay Packers secondary, which had three interceptions vs. Bears

“One of the best in NFL.”

– Steve Mariucci on Seahawks linebacking corps

“Mike DeVito, no relation to Danny, on the recovery.”

– Rich Eisen on Jets DE Mike DeVito, who recovered a key second-quarter fumble

“I was impressed with the offense. What concerned me was the defense. A Tampa offense, which was just put together recently, moved the ball well.”

– Steve Mariucci on the Dallas Cowboys

“Cadillac got a tune-up.”

– Deion Sanders on Buccaneers RB Carnell ‘Cadillac’ Williams who returned from injury to win starting job. He rushed for 97 yards and a touchdown against Cowboys.

“If he can work the middle of the field, it’s going to be a great year for the Falcons.”

– Deion Sanders on Atlanta TE Tony Gonzalez, who had 73 yards and a touchdown in his Falcons debut

“He’s gone, and there was nothing any of us could do about it.”

– Rich Eisen on Broncos WR Brandon Stokley’s 87-yard game-winning catch and run
