Behe claims that all the 14 or so factors are required beforehand to create a blood clot, -- if any are missing the fuction fails (blood doesn't clot). That is "irreducibly complex" by his argument. Miller points out that the Hagemann factor is absent in Cetaceans (Whales and dolphins), yet their blood clots just fine. Thus blood clotting is not "irreducibly complex".

Shhh, don't confuse the poor boy with facts.

But cetacean clotting must be irreducible, and if it isn't then something else is.
