Ah yes....the good ol oversimplification and words in the mouth trick, and don't forget the twists and turns to dodge the question at hand.....of course, two of those zone defenses were a part of a couple of the worst teams in the league....but nevermind that, right?  Baltimore d was 24th, 9ers were 18th, but their offense was 32nd....and that d was 29th in yards allowed.  What defense did Pitt run?

FWIW, I don't recall saying that he couldn't read a zone defense.....I just said it was a struggling point for him, and that he was a bit slower reading it than most starters.  That may, or may not improve with more time behind center.  Carry on with your crusade though....
