I will never forget the disappointment I felt when Whitehurst stepped to the line, reading the defense and called his cadence for several seconds. He called for the snap then dropped back and started to scan the field for about three seconds. Somehow, it escaped his attention that there was no db lined up on the right side of the field until the safety was already on his way over to make a play. All he had to do was read it presnap and it would have been an easy touchdown, but alas, Charlie did not have that talent. We won the game, but those several seconds of missing the read presnap and then to not see it for at least three seconds ended my hope that we might have found a worthy replacement for Hass.6 days to game day.

Yeah...but you can't argue with his clipboard holding talent. He's a true hall of famer.I will never forget the disappointment I felt when Whitehurst stepped to the line, reading the defense and called his cadence for several seconds.

So many different emotions behind this guy for me.
