quote:he didn't do anything. Going into the 4th we were only down what, 12-0? One big play and we're right back in it. The coaching staff felt comfortable with JJ remaining in the game. Did their decision turn out to be one that didn't lead to victory? Yes. Doesn't mean it still wasn't the right call to make. Hindsight is 20/20.
Did it seem like his game plan was working in first 3 quarters with JJ? Tell me what JJ did in the first 3 quarters that told you he was best option to win in the 4th quarter.
quote:according to Les and the staff, no, they danced with the date that brought them.
Did another QB not deserve a chance?
quote:miles felt more comfortable with Jefferson, instead of Lee. There's nothing more to it. You and others might want it to be, but its not. Its not. There's no conspiracy. No vendetta. No behind the scenes issues. Nothing.
If he had no trust in Lee, then get Mett ready. Newton learned in a year. Mett probably did as well. Take up for your boy all you want, but there is something going on.

No shite. Les miles and co thought the option with JJ was going to lead us to victory in the fourth? Lee deserved a chance whether you like it or not. But I can see why you support miles decision to keep JJ in. Everyone in the world knew JJ was not doing jack shite that game.

When Miles looks back on this game he will see that he was sandbagged by his own hubris. He seemed to believe that the ship would eventually right itself just as it did in the Arkansas and Georgia games. It was a flawed coaching strategy, overcome in the prior two games by athletic talent and momentum changing plays (on the other side of the ball). It's like the pilot who flies into the side of a mountain because he sees an illusion and doesn't trust his instruments. Unfortunately a painful lesson, not only for the pilot, but everyone else on the plane.
