Quotes
ADD QUOTES-
Chuck Noll: (when asked for his thoughts on his own accomplishments) I have none.
-
Dan Rooney: (about his relationship with Chuck Noll) From the very beginning he impressed me. To be honest, we hit it off very well. I remember his knowledge of the game was the thing that impressed me the most, and not just his knowing formations and so forth. He had a very good understanding of our players and situation, which I thought was remarkable for another team's assistant coach.
-
Chuck Noll: (on his relationship with the Rooney family) I've never been a head coach anywhere else, so I have nothing to judge our situation against. But I think it's obvious that we have a good thing. And yes, I think it's one of the things that has helped make us successful.
