Setting a goal of completing 70 percent of the team’s passes,

I already know they’re better than they were last year,” he said. "To find a real quality quarterback and to have separation from one to the other, that’s what I’m looking for. I’m not necessarily seeing that.”
OK. Let's just assume that for the sake of argument, this is absolute Gospel. No real separation between the two.
Mmkay. Anyone wanna take bets on how fricking bad AJ will have to play to find the bench? This is the strange part to me. If your starter is bad and you're telling us that in practice, you don't see much separation, then WTF over? Give the other guy a shot. And hey, the SAME shot you give the fricker who stank for 13 games!!!

I'm willing to go on record as saying that Harris will come into the opener within the first four possessions to lead the offense.

Exacty!!!! You mean to tell me Miles will hitch his wagon to the guy who can barely beat out a kid he has 1 year more experience than and 10 times as much playing time than?

This makes sense to you because you don't see practice. The coaches do. They have a much better feel for who will be the better QB.
I personally don't think there is anything you can take from Miles' comments. I think they are worthless. But, if you ignore that and want to take something from them it is that Harris has NOT yet raised his play above Jennings. That's the issue. That could be what Miles is talking about when he references separation.
The worst case scenario is what you suggested...that we have two QBs that kind of suck and you are just putting one in over the other and hoping for a different result.

The season hasn't started. We have no idea how much one will play vs the other. And no, last season has no bearing on this season.
The last qb to start as early as Harris did in his career at qb was Jamie Howard. That was over 20 years ago.
