Zitate und Sprüche von Jerry Rice

To me it was never about what I accomplished on the football field, it was about the way I played the game.

I think the thing about that was I was always willing to work; I was not the fastest or biggest player but I was determined to be the best football player I could be on the football field and I think I was able to accomplish that through hard work.

Monday Night Football. That was everything to me because you get a chance to show everybody what you're capable of. It's only two teams on that Monday night.

I don't diet. I'll eat fish; I'll eat baked chicken, pasta, beans. When the body is telling you, 'You need to indulge in something,' you need to give the body what it wants.

This is how I started playing: I was playing hooky one day, and the coach and the principal walked up behind me. They scared me, and I ran, and they noticed I could run really fast. They wanted me to come out for the football team.

We don't have to say we're great. Our 5 rings say it for us.

Red and Gold 'til I'm dead and cold.

It's been a long year to get to this point and we got it done today. We can't wait to get to Vegas!

The end of this thing will tell the story. I'm not saying I'm the best quarterback, but I have some gunslinger in me, and you look at some of the throws I make, you look at some of the windows I throw it into.

Everybody's got to come to Levi's, and we're trying to spank everybody that comes to Levi's.

We still have left stuff out there, where we can be our best and still reach our full potential. I don't know if we'll ever be able to reach that just because that's like a perfect game and I don't know if you can play an exactly perfect game in the NFL.

I'll embrace the role and have fun with it, for sure, but at the end of the day, I'm trying to help a team win a Super Bowl. That's where my mindset is at with it.

They wrote me off. I ain't write back though.

We're playing in this very, very cool arena where Bayern Munich plays, kind of the country's top soccer team, and it looks amazing in pictures. The chance to go across to another country, play a sport that I love... there's 3 million ticket requests for 67,000 seats. So the place is gonna be rocking and if it's anything like what I see in those German Bundesliga games this is gonna be one of the most epic games that we've ever played in. So I'm super excited.

I'm just 'bout that action boss.

I'm the best corner in the game!

You can go get guys our size and our speed, but you can't teach the heart side of it.

I've been fortunate to be able to play 10 amazing years in Seattle. My hope and goal is to be back there and keep winning there. That's the vision; that's the goal. That's always been it, never been anything different.

Frequently I get asked if I'd rather have spent my career in a big city like New York or Los Angeles, where the exposure would be greater than in Seattle. My answer is no, not at all. Exposure is not important to me.

How long does it take to get from Louisiana to Alabama?
One Mississippi.

One day, I know the struggle will change. There's got to be a change - not only for Mississippi, not only for the people in the United States, but people all over the world.

They say money can't buy happiness, but it can buy a flight to Mississippi - and that's pretty much the same thing.

I like football. I find its an exciting strategic game. Its a great way to avoid conversation with your family at Thanksgiving.

On a football team, it’s not the strength of the individual players, but it is the strength of the unit and how they all function together.

Football is unconditional love.

I think Tom Brady is one of the greatest competitors of all time.

You know the thing about good food? It brings folks together from all walks of life.

Everything in this room is eatable. Even I'm eatable. But that is called cannibalism, my dear children, and is in fact frowned upon in most societies.

Scott Hanson: "If it comes down to it, Brock. It's late in the fourth quarter, are you prepared to disappoint Taylor Swift?"
Brock Purdy: "Yes."

We're not done, dawg, I want three!

Brock, he made some big plays in this game. Missed a couple, but leading us down on our last drive and getting the win, that's all I can ask for.

I'm the top receiver in the game. There's no question about it.

Patrick Mahomes is my GOAT!

DeMeco Ryans is the perfect guy for the job. He brings something out of his players, and it's indescribable.

I love these guys right here. The men that we just won this thing with, family forever, baby. I couldn't be more proud of you guys. We get a chance to do it three times in a row!

I mean, they got a good defense, but we got a really good offense.

I don't play no sports other than Football. There's too much Football in my head already.

Congrats to the Kansas City Chiefs, MVP Patrick Mahomes, Coach Reid, Travis Kelce, Chris Jones, Mecole Hardman, and the rest of the champs for another Lombardi Trophy. Grace under pressure.

It's definitely a blessing, but you don't think about it a ton, because once you win the AFC Championship game - now you're in the Super Bowl and you're focused on that game.
