It is a shame how many LSU "fans" find nothing poisitive and seem to never be happy unless they are calling for a coach to be fired.
My "time" goes back to the end of the Charlie Mac era and fans were calling for his head every time he lost to Bama... which everybody else was losing to them too, BTW.
Generations of LSU "fans" have grown up listening to their parents bitch and moan and complain about coaching and wanting the head coach fired.... it's in their genes, unfortunately.
I say cheer FOR the team, support the COACH and the program and stop complaining and bitching.
I can recall a whole lot of people in ~2005 and 2006 that saw this white guy running back #18 playing and just bitching week in and week out how slow he was and that he should NOT be playing... well that dude was pretty special and the coaches saw that... the blind "fans" could not get past their bias. By the time LSU won the NC and #18 was a big part of it... they shut up (well most of them anyway). I suspect the same will happen if/when Les Miles leads LSU to another SEC championship and possibly plays for the BCS NC again... if the man can put up with the crap he hears weekly if it's not this year (which NOBODY predicted, to the best of my knowledge).

If he started JL and let him play most of the snaps he would get alot more of support during the week. On Saturday all real LSU fans support him

He answered the question. Both QBs bring different skills to the table so both will play. I'm not saying I agree with his answer either, but that doesn't give me the right to keep asking the same question over and over, then resort to low blows and embarrass the man and the university.

The problem with this is that Charlie Mac did lose to Bama each year and that's not acceptable today. Maybe it should have been accepted in the 70's, but not today. That greaseball Nick Saban set the benchmark, and fair or not, LSU coaches from this point forward will be compared to Saban and judged on whether they beat Saban. That is, until he hops a jet plane to accept his next deal. The frustration with fans is that JL is obviously outplaying JJ. And personally, I have to agree with them when they say that continuing to play JJ is going to ultimately hurt this team. Yes, LSU fans are spoiled, but so is every other fan base that has won the national title. In Tiger Town, it's championship or bust, so Lesticles better hope JJ doesn't screw it up or this fan base will go nuts.
