but it boils down to how one defines a "Best" QB, and the ultimate deciding factor is this case is natty's. no?
Absolutely not. If so, it goes back the tried and true question: was Trent Dilfer better than Dan Marino?
The only people that think Flynn was a better QB at LSU than Russell are the biased Flynntards or folks that just hate Jamarcus. JR was better across the board but unfortunately faced the toughest road schedule for an LSU team in recent memory. For your reference, 06 LSU faced:
@ #3 Auburn
@ #5 Florida
@ #8 Tennessee
@ #5 Arkansas
Four top 10 road games in a season, and we won two of them. We probably should have won three, but I digress.

Flynn deserves a ton of credit for sticking around and waiting his turn, something you simply don't see nowadays as well.
No one is bashing Flynn, but this is along the lines of the general rationale behind the pro-Flynn crowd. He holds a soft spot in your heart because he "did things the right way." He's a likeable guy that waited his turn, and it paid off. A great story indeed, but you can't objectively say he was a better QB. No way, no how.

Such bullshite.
I loved JaMarcus as much as any other LSU fan. Like most of us, I had no real idea how good Flynn was until that 40-3 demolition of Miami. The following season proved that was no fluke.
Now, you're even trying to use the schedule to bolster your JM point? Two words...Virginia Tech.
I appreciate your loyalty to JM and all, but your own examples just make the case for Flynn even stronger.
Enjoying the banter though..
