markers were away from the edge on both sides of the field and no matter who had the ball. I agree that is not how it's normally done, but it was that way all game for both teams. And they had a time out to figure it out.

I read that the marker has to be within 6 ft of the sideline. There is no requirement that it has to be on the edge of the field of play. Visually you could clearly see the marker. I think Quick was trying to deflect blame fro
m his inept play that evidently "lost it for the L" it's certainly a better story for him.

I think the marker was set back so it wouldn't blend with the orange border, which would make sense.

The marker is supposed to be 6' away from the sideline - or another way of saying it is no closer than 6' from the sideline. The orange area along the sideline is 6', but there is no rule that says the marker should abut the 6' line. It is somewhat confusing, but most schools place the marker at the edge of the 6' boundary.

And FWIW, there absolutely was a variance in how the marker was placed from time-to-time. The guy was not consistent and in my opinion, he should be replaced.

Still, as a former TE who had to know where the line of gain was on every play, there is no excuse for Quick not knowing where he needed to go to get a first down. They can complain 'til the cows come home, but the receiver's job is to know.... period..... every time.
