Safeties Quotes


You know if you need to go after offensive linemen or safeties or something else. It gives schools a better chance of filling their needs. - Bobby Burton



You came to the right man, ... Most every week I'm apt to go against a safety. For me, it's great work going against one of the best safeties in the league. His play proves it. How he plays in the game is how he practices. He's full-go all the time. - Daniel Graham



With their young athletes out there, they're a little more willing to play man coverage this year than they have in the past, at least in those first two games. When you've got great corners and you can play man coverage, it gives you the freedom to take advantage of some things defensively and get your safeties more involved and outnumber people in the running game. - Skip Holtz



With our linebackers coming or our safeties coming, ... it changes things up to allow each guy to get some pressure in the quarterback's face. - Bryant Young



With any offense, if you make it one-dimensional, then you know what they're doing. The challenge for us was don't let Corey Dillon get started. Because when he gets started, now you've got to bring safeties in the box to stop him. And Tom Brady's play-action is dangerous. We just decided to go hard. And when you couldn't go hard, let the next guy come in so he can go hard. We just rotated players constantly. - Brentson Buckner



With a year under his belt, he feels more at ease... He's not there yet -- he's not a finished product by any means -- but [safeties coach] Steve Jackson's done a tremendous job of bringing him up to speed in a short amount of time. I've never changed my opinion that he's the best kid I've ever coached, athletically, and I take it real personal in making sure that he matures in the right way as a football player. He's got to take some huge steps here in year two, but when you go back over time in this league, that's usually when the great ones really make a big jump. He's primed to do that. - Gregg Williams



Whenever we run the ball that gives us an aggressiveness. It gets those safeties really interested in what's going on up front. If we can (draw) those guys up, our receivers are going to have a field day out there. - Tarik Glenn



When the ball was in the air and the safeties were running toward me. After that, I was ready to celebrate. I knew he'd catch the ball. - Ted Ginn Jr.



When people play Cover Two against you (with two safeties deep, each patrolling half the field), you've got to run the ball. - John Fox



When Ben Troupe first came in here, we looked at him as a speedster. We wanted to isolate him on linebackers, isolate him on strong safeties. We're trying to build him up to be a Tony Gonzalez, a Todd Heap, the guys who are not only able to block as well as be able to catch the ball intermediate and also deep. - Steve McNair
