    The key words here are "According to Miles." If Miles is good at one thing its saying nothing with a lot of words

    I have been both on and off the fence with Miles over the last 9 seasons. But when something is broken, his track record says he'll fix it. The only question is, will he fix things in season or wait until after the season. In this instance, I think the answer is mixing it up and bringing in a few fresh faces who deserves to play. Maybe that will help light a fire under a few players asses.
    But the writing is on the wall, Miles and staff needs to wake up and figure out what it is they need to do to remain competitive in the division. I think we'll see some changes.

    That could easily mean he'll get a series here and there.

    I would be shocked to see Harris take even half the snaps against NM State. It will be more likely 25 %. Which is sad.

    Look I have been a huge Miles supporter, but I pride myself on seeing the obvious and can adjust my opinions to what my eyes tell me is the obvious. If Miles doesn't START Harris and give him the majority of the snaps and break away from up the middle left and up the middle right to start every offensive series then his stubbornness has gotten the best of him and needs to be addressed.

    While I get what you're saying, and I hope you're wrong. Harris already gets a series "here and there". It won't be beneficial for either side if things continue the way they are. Harris needs at least 50% of the snaps imo, and while he'll still make mistakes at times... he will be a better QB for it, and we'll be a better offensive team for it.

    thats pretty much a given unless hes placating the masses. Itd be less if not for heat hes taking this week. But he deserves it.

    so you need more than 10 years to know hes not starting harris any time soon? (without the caveat of another loss or 3)

    If he thinks he's taking heat now, let him continue with the same old same old... and we take another loss or two, BR may just burn down his house. He'll correct things to the best of his ability, and if not... well 2014 won't be able to end soon enough.

    I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt until kickoff, but Harris should start without question.....
