Message: [QUOTE="leftytg, post: 1153960, member: 2651"] I think anyone would see it for what it is - a smoke screen. QB's get hurt all the time and backups go in. This does not result in the QB coach "getting more opportunities in assisting" with the game plan, or at least the need to issue a press release stating as such. This would effectively mean that the part talking about the QB injury would (rightly) be ignored and the "due to...our offensive performance" part would be the focus, as that is the part that would typically call for a press release. Nice idea and all, but being evasive - especially when it isn't convincing - will only serve to whip things up further. The demotion would be richly deserved and not hard for fans/media to understand. If they think a press release is necessary, I think they should simply be up front about what would quickly be obvious, and not insult the intelligence of the fans/media. [/QUOTE]
