• Carol Vermeil : What was it that you used to say to your kids at Hillsdale High? That character is tested when you're up against it?

  Dick Vermeil : Yeah.

  [pauses] 

  Dick Vermeil : And that's not the problem here. He's got plenty of character.

  Carol Vermeil : Who said I was talking about him?

• [last lines] 

  Dick Vermeil : Thats the sound we were looking for.

• TJ Banks : See anything yet, coach?

  Dick Vermeil : You're not worried, are you T.J.?

  TJ Banks : Should I be?

  Dick Vermeil : Last year, we had one of the worst defenses in the league. Offense wasn't much better. I say everyone needs to worry. See you boys at camp.

• [Vince makes a catch and runs all the way to the end zone in practice] 

  TJ Banks : What are you doing, old man? This ain't high school!

  Dick Vermeil : Hey Banks! That old man just made you look bad. That's a way to finish, Papale!

• Dick Vermeil : A team with better character can beat a team with better talent. I believe that. You guys are not the team that is short on talent here today. And I swear you will never again be the team short on character. We need to find the soul of this team again. The soul that drove great Eagle players. Players like Norm Van Brocklin, Tommy McDonald, Steve Van Buren; they weren't just out here playing for themselves, they played for a city. People of Philadelphia have suffered. You are what they turn to at times like these. You are what gives them hope. Lets win one for them. Lets win one for us. Bring it in.
