Andy Reid:
On whether he suggested to McDermott that CB Asante Samuel should cover Titans WR Kenny Britt: "I know Sean already talked to you about that. Sean had thought about that. There's more to it than that. In the middle of the game, you just don't start flopping guys around. It's not as easy just to go say 'you're playing man coverage over here.' That's not how you do it. There are a lot of different schemes involved, so it's a tough thing to do. And listen, going in we had full trust that the guys who were covering him, would cover him. You get into a game like that you can't just switch another guy over."
Isn't that what making in-game adjustments is all about? Why don't we do things like that?
