Look, I like Jordan Jefferson and think he has potential but right now he lacks timing and any ability to step up in the pocket to make a throw. If you watch the games again you'll notice the majority of the pressure comes from the outside requiring Jefferson to take one or two steps forward and throw down field. Instead, he tucks the ball and starts trying to find a way out to run. Jefferson is not the only problem obviously but he is a big one. Lee made many bad throws of his back foot last year but there were times that he stood tall or stepped up in the pocket to make a throw. I think he should at least be given another chance. We threw the kid to the wolves last year when we thought perrilloux would be our quarterback. Also, a big knock on Crowton is that he is not able to develop qb's. I don't see how giving Lee a chance will hurt us. He has a good arm and just as much potential as Jefferson. The only thing Lee absolutely can't run is the option but if we're being honest here, neither can Jefferson and that play should be burned.
