It's an insult to be just a great cover guy. I really think Deion Sanders set defensive-back play back. All he would do is cover people and not strike anybody.
Quotes about deion (13 Quotes)
Everyone else had come to see Tiger. He was twenty-one years old, a multi-multi-millionaire, and already a one-name athlete, as in Michael or Shaq, Deion or The Shark. Only, at that moment Tiger was bigger than all of them. Even Michael. He was nine weeks removed from one of the most stunning performances in the history of sports, a twelve-shot victory in the Masters that had left people in golf groping for words to describe what they had seen. And what they had seen was impossible. He's a boy among men, ... And he's teaching the men a lesson.
It's going to happen. Deion Sanders, Champ Bailey ... everybody's been beat. It's going to happen. I'm going to continue to play aggressive and take my chances at the ball when I get the opportunity.
If Deion Sanders wants to come back next season, the Ravens would welcome his return. Sanders, who will turn 38 next August, has only started and finished six of the Ravens' 14 games this season because of injuries. As a nickel back, he is second on the team with three interceptions, running one back for a touchdown. He's been a joy to have, a great addition to this club, ... We'd love to have him back.
He's probably the greatest corner to ever play the game. I learned a lot from Deion.
Deion Sanders , it's safe to say, won't be coming to the Giants, even though he seems obsessed with them. For the second time this month, Prime Time took shots at Coughlin in an interview yesterday. It's a situation that's not going to be resolved until someone leaves, ... Everybody on that team is trying to get out, I think coaches included, because it's old school. I think Coughlin is still stuck in an era, in a generation that he needs to get out of because guys are truly not responding to his methods.
It was definitely a way to make extra change. I got some gloves from Emmitt, Michael and Deion and went back to school the next day and made some money. That was the cool thing about it.
There isn't a person in this organization that doesn't enjoy having Deion Sanders here and doesn't think he isn't a valued part of what we are trying to do. It's been a joy to have him here. Deion can still play, there's no question. But what he brings to the team, from a veteran perspective and an emotional standpoint, is of great value to us.
I would like to limit the total number of reps for Deion -- which we do have to be aware of at 38 years old -- to the secondary.
Today's loss epitomized our season. We're not supposed to lose to them, and we wanted to send Deion out right. It was a dream come true to play with him. He has been great for the game.
It has to be Champ Bailey. His ball skills are outstanding. He can break on the ball. He can re-direct a route. His recovery speed is great. He's pure. He's the closest thing to Deion (Sanders) we've probably seen. There aren't a lot of corners you say that you're not going to go after. I'm going to try all of them. But he's the best, and the one you should worry about the most. When we played him last year, he made some hellacious plays. I threw one ball that looked like it was going to be over his head and he made a great play on it and tiptoed the sideline. He's an awesome corner.
The addition of Deion to our ownership brings a charismatic and creative leader with a wealth of professional sports experience and a great marketing flare.
I wasn't nervous, ... I was just overexcited. It was my first time seeing guys like Deion and Ray, and the first time those guys are watching you, and you have the opportunity to play on the same field. I was just overexcited at first, and then I calmed down.
