Doug Flutie Quotes (15 Quotes)


    I think it's actually easier for me to simulate Vick than Peyton Manning, but you can't mimic him to the full extent. You can't stand there flat-footed and fling the thing 65 or 70 yards off your back foot (like Vick can). I've got a little bit of a burst, but I can't run a 4.2, that's for darn sure. You see guys on film take the wrong angle on him all the time because he's so fast. You know he's fast, but you don't know how fast until you watch him in person.

    I was just disappointed. You know, Adam has been a big part of this team for a number of years and his game-winning kicks, Super Bowl kicks, and all that, so he will be missed by his teammates, but it's just the nature of the business. He will be forever etched in the memories of New England sports fans.

    He can do some things that just make you shake your head.

    It was fun to watch Tom work. He took it to another level the whole fourth quarter.

    But I'll tell you this: When I lose my athleticism, it's time to go.

    I'm just going to take my time to make my decision.

    I take pride in the fact that I am 38 and I'm still playing, and not just cashing a check, ... I'm playing and I'm still athletic and I can run around and do the things I like to do. And hopefully I'll turn 40 and still be doing it. That's a hell of an achievement as far as I'm concerned.
