A biography for Joe Flaccohasn’t been written yet.
“What fun would it be if we were perfect in everything that we did? Football is not about that.”
“As long as you keep your body healthy quarterback is a position where you should get better as you age.”
“This is football, man. We all sign up to get hit.”
“What you think you see and what you think a guy did wrong, maybe he did right. Or you see a touchdown pass, but the guy might've been wrong. Something crazy might have happened. You don't know that. That's the toughest thing when it comes to judging play on a football field.”
“I want to play as long as I can.”
“I'm the same as I am on the field as I am off the field. It's not an act. I can't be another person on the field as opposed to being off the field. I am on who I am off.”
“When you go out there and you try to change things around and avoid a guy or pick your spots to go at a guy, I think you're usually taking away a piece of your offense that you rely on a lot.”
“I definitely have a chip on my shoulder after having transfered to Division I-AA.”
“I've always wanted to have a family of my own.”
“You want to go out there and you want to show up for your teammates every Sunday, and you do everything you can to make sure that happens.”
“We tend to just think about how hard it is to never have thrown to a guy. That is true, every guy has their own way of doing things and you build a rapport with guys throughout the course of the year and throughout practice and all of that.”
“There is definitely little things that motivate you every year.”
“I think as a play-caller, you have to just go out there, rely on your guys that you have that are out there, rely on the fact that they have ability. And as a quarterback, you have to go out there and just go through your reads.”
“I'm a guy that does not like to throw interceptions.”
“What motivates me is being the best quarterback in the world.”
“You pick guys in the first round - whenever you pick guys - you pick them for a reason.”
“You can deal with a little pain. It's just about making sure you can throw the ball good enough to go out there and help your team.”
“I have the same routine every game day, when it comes to waking up and what I do at the hotel and stuff, but nothing crazy.”
“Joe Montana was my favorite. I just thought he was the best at the time. He wasn't playing too, too much when I got into high school or anything, but he was just a winning guy and he played very consistent football.”
“I'm not a selfish person, I don't think.”
