“If it weren’t for a new rule that came into being, we’d have played three years in a row in the championship game.”

A helluva athlete, the best ever to play his position in the history of the game.

Just shred baby, shred.

Once a Raider, always a Raider.

The fire that burns brightest in the Raiders organization is the will to win.

Why should I talk to you? I don’t know where you’re from.

History will dictate what my legacy is. And ‘maverick’ is fine, because I am.

John is a standard bearer, someone that players, coaches, fans and the Raider Nation can all look up to.

I saw greatness in John and he lived up to it. I also saw a tremendous competitor who loved to win.

We want to win. The Raider fans deserve it. The Raider players deserve it, even my organization deserves it.

Look, I don’t want to win in the press. I want to win on the field.

We would consider anyone that we think is right.

I’m in pro football to win, to have the Raiders dominate,

Wake up, Carolee, the plane is waiting for us, we have to get to the game.

No one could have brought in more personnel than we have to build a football team.

I love my country and I love my league.

I can control most things, but I don’t seem to be able to control death.
