re: Miles Statements about pressure debunked.

Sacks occur when two things happen primarily:
1) A QB holds on to the ball too long regardless of what his feet are doing
2) A defense sells out on the pass and mauls the line overwhelming the protection and causing even more of #1
Both happened Monday. Lee would have changed #2. I don't buy that with Lee in, they blitz more. They have to defend the obvious pass. Plus I felt Lee was better at selling the option than JJ based on the limited evidence (W.Ku). And he's always better than #1, sometimes to a fault, but not this year.
Les is a stubborn coach and that's why it's unfortunate. How as a fan do we fix this? I don't see how other than continuing to pressure the administration and university to wake up Les to the reality that he has to evolve his game and stop being the final judge on on the field talent. He's gotten it wrong so many times now with Jamarcus and Jordan that he's seriously risking recruiting if he continues to be unaccountable to his actions

:rofl: You serious, Clark? So you are saying the head coach shouldn't be responsible for being the final judge of the talent he puts on the field?
And what is this shite about Jamarcus? He was the best QB on the roster by a long shot, why wouldn't Les play him.

Correct. A QB in the shotgun under an allout bitz with skilled receivers can really burn the defense, no matter how good they are. No one is happier that Les didn't bench JJ after the first quarter than Saban and Smart.

Saban started jamarcus also. Mikes can only be blamed for the JJ/ Lee fiasco. Its been haunting us since 08 and i just hope things change going foward. The first 4 qbs miles has brought in have been total failures. Lets hope we dont ruin these next 4. RP, Jl, JJ, CG, and you can add ZL in there, but i give less a pass for getting ZM.
