re: why is WWL reporting Lee to start ?

The problem with the stats is JJ just happened to be on the field when Ridley broke his two big runs.

1 was the first play of a drive where Ridley made a great cut.

The second was on a 2nd and 2 in the 3rd where he made another great move.

It had nothing to do with JJ. Take those 2 runs out and the numbers are almost identical between when the two QBs are in.

With JJ:
9 for 34 yards

With Lee:
11 for 39 yards

That isn't that big of a deal. Given the fact Ridley lost a huge run on the first drive Lee was in because of Barksdale's hold, I'd say the numbers aren't that different.

In the end, Les will do what Les is going to do. We just have to accept that even if it means failure for this team.

Agree 100%

The idiots yesterday were trying to attribute Ridley's success to JJ in that stat thread. I've never seen such an obtuse and willfully stupid analysis of data in my life.
