Please, just stop.

Mettenberger was not recognized as being worse than JJ/JL either, just significantly more inexperienced.

It's clear that Miles played it safe with JJ/JL the entire 2011 season and it damn near worked to perfection until the NCG.

Have you seen some of the throws Mett can make?

Because I have and he is on another level of QB than JJ/JL.

Additionally, because of this and Miles' outspoken near guarantees that we will have more passing in the 2012 season, I believe we should expect more down field passes on early down which will allow our stable of running backs to gash the defenses and run for a plethora of yards.

LSU will still be a running team, but maybe even a better running team with Mett at QB.

Yes he is. He can make a 3rd read and deliver ball quickly. Has actual pocket presence. Can throw deep with accuracy. And as a bonus...he can actually run fairly well.
