Actually his paraphrasing was kind to Miles. Coach actually said, outside of Bret Favre, no other QB could do what was being expected

wrong. Here is his EXACT quote.

quote:
I can tell you that anytime you are in a game where you are penalized as often as we were, that quarterback has a very difficult situation. Instead of going back there second and two, he is going back there at third and 12. A good majority of our third down conversions had to do with what was the penalty and the situation in front of him rather than the quarterback play. I can tell you when you are third and long and you rush three and drop all the underneath coverage to take away those routes, it is not the ideal time to throw a football. I would say any quarterback in that position minus Brett Favre might have a real issue.

You are emotional about the situation and clearly are unable to take his comment at face value.

That's either a lie or plain stupidity. NO, the majority of our third downs were because we weren't very good on first and second... FOR FOUR STRAIGHT GAMES now.
