The only time Coles would drop one was when we was getting blown up and even then he would usually hand onto the ball. Does anyone remember when Coles got absolutely demolished going over the middle for a pass from Ramsey and fomer-Eagles safety Michael Lewis just trucked him? Coles caught the ball, got up, and did his signature 1st down pose.

My favorite Coles moment was when he ran down that interception in that Seattle game in 2003. It was 14-3 and that score would have put the game out of reach. Coles forced the fumble and I think we ended up scoring a TD on that drive. Wilbon wrote a column that week praising Coles as the best player on the team.
