    How flabbergasting. He is as responsible as any head coach for recruiting and training the QB. But coaches are not responsible for their quarterback's personal failures.

    On this we can agree.

    Mett sure proved to be the poster boy for Give A Guy A Second Chance. It was a pleasure watching him mature and a lot of us had to eat crow. Wonder who was primarily responsible for his recruitment.

    It can't have been Miles, he doesn't recruit QBs.

    Not responsible for personal failures, but responsible for continuing to bite on QBs who have personal failures.

    If I need to build a road but my superintendents continue to make poor choices which affect the quality of the road I build, eventually my boss will ask me how come you can't get somebody worth a shit to build this gd road, and I'm paying good money to not get a poor product while we're at it. Eventually it's my problem.

    A win isn't "usually" better than a loss. It's ALWAYS better than a loss.

    Sometimes you learn lessons from a loss that you wouldn't from a win, is alls I meant.

    Are you a liberal? Because you sure do like to blame everyone else instead of the person in charge.

    When you have a 10 year sample size it's pretty obvious who is at fault. The buck stops at Miles. Period.

    Well I don't know what you care about, but I care about winning. The year we were 86th in the number you think so important we went to the championship game. Where did the team #1 in your statistic finish in 2011?
