The post game press conference was disturbing. Miles praised the incompetent Harris and criticized the successful Etling it is not like miles to throw a player under the bus yet he was deliberately doing so with DE. In fact, he talked about Harris as if he were still the undisputed starter: we have to get Brandon more comfortable, etc. etc.
I have been a huge miles supporter until now. Simply cannot see how the program can benefit from this kind of blatant favoritism.
. Time to go

Maybe he thinks Etling handles criticism better.

I fully expect Harris to start

How many come backs did Lee lead us to yet Miles would always start JJ.

Etling will be better than fine.

Miles cannot slow down the Etling train.

The team is onboard.

Well he's criticized Harris in the same manner and he does need to get him in a more comfortable offense.. but he is never going to cater to his skill-set or do this.. so he might as well roll with Etling, who looks to have better feet work and pocket presence.

I don't blame you though. Miles has lost just about all of us. It's really frustrating.

Remember all the fans saying Harris would never start?

Rewind to 24 hours ago. Remember the fans saying Eitling wouldn't play unless it was a blowout?

He praised Etling plenty but, just like on the rant, Les pointed out Etling made mistakes too.

I wouldn't say he praised Harris. He just didn't come out and say he sucked. Whereas he basically said that about DE. That's why at 1/2 time he was so pissed off. DE should have been 6/7. Then go rewatch the game and look at the pass that Guice should have caught as well as the 3 from Dupre and all of a sudden DE stats are well over 60%

It's so comical that you actually think miles thinks this far ahead. Dude can't get a play in on time and he only has about 6 plays in the book (not counting the secret book we've all been waiting on.)

This is the part that bothered me the most. It sounds like he's going to do whatever he can to make sure that Harris gets back in the game so`he can redeem himself.

Etling must have done the bone dance with Smacker, only thing that makes sense.
