Week 2 (9/16/12) – Quotable from
NFL GameDay Highlights & NFL GameDay Final on NFL Network
(Sundays at 7:30 & 11:30 PM ET)
“They are the most complete team, [they are] balanced. The defense is going to stop and shut down everything. Offensively, Frank Gore is a beast running the ball and they are developing a passing game.” — Michael Irvin on the San Francisco 49ers
“I am watching the workman-like attitude that I saw playing with Jim Harbaugh in Alex Smith” — Marshall Faulk on San Francisco 49ers’ quarterback Alex Smith after their 27-19 win over the Detroit Lions
“Eli is a cool customer. He has had some tough games over his career, this is not his first rodeo and he has thrown interceptions before. But he has this way about him where he can shake it off. He was sensational down the stretch.” — Steve Mariucci on New York Giants’ quarterback Eli Manning who had 243 yards and two touchdowns passing in the 4th quarter of the Giants’ 41-34 come from behind win over Tampa Bay
“Eli is truly unflappable; he rarely shows emotion on the field. I don’t care how many interceptions he has thrown. Yes, he is [one of the five best quarterbacks]. — Deion Sanders on Giants’ quarterback Eli Manning
“They are going to challenge the San Francisco 49ers for the division.” – Deion Sanders on the 2-0 Arizona Cardinals following their 20-18 win at New England
“We needed to see more [Tim] Tebow in this game because, Dick LeBeau, the things he does to a quarterback pre-snap, Mark Sanchez doesn’t have it from the shoulders up to perform to the level of a Peyton Manning, to digest all that [information] and make the right decisions.” – Marshall Faulk on the New York Jets offensive game plan against the Pittsburgh Steelers
“This is the best game I’ve seen Reggie Bush play from a running back standpoint.” – Marshall Faulk on Reggie Bush
“We are talking about a .500 team [last season]. Jerry Jones is the best marketing owner in the National Football League. He causes us to believe every year that the Cowboys have an opportunity to go to the Super Bowl and that is really not that true of a statement.” — Deion Sanders on the Dallas Cowboys following their 27-7 loss at Seattle
“After last game, I thought for sure this is a playoff team. After today, I wonder how many games they are going to win.” — Steve Mariucci on the Dallas Cowboys who fell to 1-1 on the season
“The Dallas Cowboys are not a team that cannot overcome adversity” — Deion Sanders on the Dallas Cowboys
