Tom Brady Play Quotations

My job is to play quarterback, and I'm going to do that the best way I know how, because I owe that to my teammates regardless of who is out there on the field with me.

The true competitors, though, are the ones who always play to win.

I don't want to wake up and be bored. That's probably my greatest fear is to have nothing to do. What better job is there than to play quarterback for an NFL team, and certainly one that I've been on for a long time and had success with? I don't plan on giving it up any time soon.

Fortunately for a quarterback, you can play for a long time because you don't get hit very often.

I've always been privileged to play for Coach Belichick, who I've always said is the best coach in the history of the league.

You know, watching Dan Marino and Steve Young get nominated to the Hall of Fame... those guys are unbelievable and they did it for so long. I'd love to play like those guys, but there's still a long way to go and a lot of growing.

I feel like I've always played within the rules. I would never do anything to break the rules. I believe in fair play and I'll always believe in that for as long as I'm playing.

The only thing I really like doing during the week is getting ready to play the game.

It's easy when you have receivers that are open all the time and an offensive line that never lets anyone touch you. It makes it fun to play.

Butler's interception comes off as a great play, which it really was, at the biggest time of the year.

It's just part of whatever motivates guys and whatever they say. Ultimately it comes down to how well you play. What I've learned over the years, a lot of guys talk. What you need to do is go out there and play, back it up. They've been able to back it up, so that's why it works for them. Hopefully we can go out there and do our talking on the field.

It's an incredible play, and not only that, that's the type of plays Malcolm makes for our team.

If you don't play to win don't play at all.

I would never do anything outside of the rules of play.
