Quotes
"Mark has shown he has the ability to be a really big-time quarterback in our system. He has the strongest arm we've had since Carson Palmer... Once he was named the starter, he came out more energetic, more demonstrative and took on more of a leadership role, which is what we expected."--Pete Carroll, USC head coach2
"There's no doubt Mark has that gunslinger mentality. He wants to come out and make a play. The last thing you want to do is to take that out of him. You don't want to give him a 'gunslinger-otomy.' But it's got to be tempered to a degree. He has to learn when to and when not to."--Nick Sanchez, father2
"It keeps things in perspective. Football means the world to me. But when people lose their houses and lives in a fire, I realize football is just a game. Those fires are a big deal. That's real life. I'm so proud of him. I look up to him. I love being able to say, 'My dad's a fireman."--Mark Sanchez2
