Did you just read the first line of my post and reply? If so, maybe you should read it again...

They switch them up every week and have been doing so since Manning was given that much control. SO i think Belicheck should probably be giving more credit to snowstorms and swallowed whistles, then he does to a backup QB who obviously has alot of time on his hands to fashion his impressions.

Translation ( just in case you still dont understand ) ... Manning might make the same gestures and signals and yell the same words at the line like Apple Apple and what not, but they attach different plays and different formations and different routes to the audibles every week. So tho Huard can probably act like Manning in practice, it really does nothing for the Patriots, cause they wont know what plays or routes Manning is audibling to. The sound and gestures are the same. The meanings are different every week. Practicing it is a waste. Thats not to say that maybe Belecheck and the Pats D didnt catch on to the audibles and plays as that specific game progressed, but theres no way they could have gameplanned to answer Manning audibles, cause theres no way they would know what they meant. Half of them are dummy calls anyways.
