This is what parcells said, about fumbled snaps, its carelessness, i think so, but at same time, I remember Coach Landry said that you cant play 2 centers, during a game, it messes up the QB and center snapping. So, i think its alittle of both, carelessness and 2 centers playing.

If we have another fumbled snap in the SF game I think something has to be done to address this problem right now and stop this problem now. If it is two centers playing then have just one center playing. I would say Landry knows something about the game and I'd be interested to hear what Parcells would say to that if he was told that. Parcells has a tremendous amount of respect for Landry..

I call it a bad excuse about 2 centers we done it before with very few fumbled snaps no more than what happens in any given year before so I have to say the 2 center is a bad excuse

And if they have players who can't snap a football they shouldn't be on the roster...hence bad coaching.

I know this has officially been declared "Blame the coaches for everything" week, but it was the center who forgot the snap count and snaped the ball at the wrong count. It had nothing to do with timing, technique, the rotation at the position, or familiarity with Bledsoe. It was indeed, simple carelessness.

Parcells should decide which guy he wants to start so they can get comfortable with bledsoe and hopefully this will stop happening.

No kidding. Man, I guess everybody gets blamed for a couple of things going wrong that could have happened to anyone? The center forgot the count.

So in essence, its the Center doing a false start. Makes sense.

Whatever the reason, it needs to stop. Luckily we only lost one of them so far....
