"He's following the technique that he's been taught, and we'll see under pressure if he can continue to do that," Coughlin said. "The problems occur when you try to make a move and the ball leaves your side and the pocket that you've established for it. You have trouble when there's no place to go and other people are surrounding you, you have no choice but to cover it up with both hands.
"That's not a difficult thing for David because of his body style and the height of his running position. He can do a good job of covering the ball up. He was careless, and it cost us dearly, but I'm confident he's going to learn from it."
