We'll miss him, there's no doubt about that,
If God doesn't give you a real, real strong arm, and you have to stand there and throw it, you have to use your legs, ... still is finding his way in the offense. ... He missed a lot of time in the spring and he's playing his way through it.
There's no magical potion. We have to play this way, OK? Everyone's missing that. We act like every week there's something going to be different. What's going to be different?
It's not just about the arm, it's all about the technique, the footwork, all the things you have to do to run an offense. He didn't practice (in training camp). I mean, practice is practice. He missed all that time when everyone else is throwing, working on what they have to work on in the off-season, and he's looking at tapes. Every snap is important to this guy. He understands his position. He understands what he has to try and do.
I get questioned for third-and -5, running the draw, trying to tie the game up before the half. I'm going to answer all those questions between now until the end of the season. I understand that. But the same scenario, they're on the 27-yard line, they missed a field goal. How about that?
