Posted Sep 11, 2008

Q)How are you doing developing a rapport with Brett Favre?

Coles: I am trying to pick up some of the offense right now. Of course, some things have changed and we are trying to get a better understanding of what is going on with the wording in the offense.

Q)It looked like you guys weren't in a groove down in Miami . . .

Coles: I don’t have a feel for him and he doesn’t have a feel for me. That is one of the things I am going to have to deal with. In the past I’ve always knew when the ball was coming, now you don’t really know. It is totally different for me as a player. It is what it is. He is getting adjusted and I am trying to do what I am supposed to do.

Q)Did it hurt you guys not working together this summer?

Coles: It’s just one of those things whenever you get introduced to a new quarterback you don’t have a feel for each other, period. He is being introduced to a new offense and new players. For me, it’s one of those things where he doesn’t have a feel for me, I don’t have a feel for him. You deal with it.

Q)Is it just a matter of time before you guys are on the same page?

Coles: He has a job to do. I have a job to do. You work day-in and day-out and just do what you are supposed to do.

Q)The way Brett throws the football, can you guys do some big things together?

You hope for the best, but it’s not about me, it’s about this team. It’s not about him, it’s about this team. It’s not about any individual. Whether you have success with me or have success with Jerricho Cotchery, Chansi Stuckey or whoever it is as long as the team is successful I think things will be alright.
