In truth, it's a topic that unless I just stumble upon it, (like I did here), I completely ignore. Unworthy of consideration. - JamesJM
Yeah....and it went there. My transcript:
Quote
COSELL: He's going to have to learn how to be a lot tougher in the pocket.
COWHERD: You mentioned toughness. I don't think you can teach it. I'm not tough. What you say is what I always felt. I did not have the physical confidence to want to be hit. We all see those kids at 5 or 6 years old. They have brothers and want to wrestle with dad. Then we have finesse kids. I think you can teach virtually anything. Tough is innate.
COSELL: Yeah. It's very hard to teach a quarterback to stand in the pocket and the term we use sometimes is look down the gun barrel. You have to be able to stand there knowing you're going to get hit or at the least be able to throw when there's a lot of people around you.
I see Cowherd as expanding on what Cosell said and Cosell then agreeing with him.
If Cosell was actually saying something different from Cowherd, he should have taken the opportunity to correct him. And maybe all that happened is that Cosell didn't correct Cowherd, but it looks to me like he agrees with Cowherd.
