re: 2014 Offense isn't the offense Les wants them to be

We need the opposite. Our strength is at the WR and we need to spread em out and utilize it. Fournette would be great as our main horse back and would be used a lot in the screen game, out the back field, lined up as 5th receiver, and as a drop off receiver

---

That'd be fun

Uh no fournette is not our best back . Not yet . Hes tip toeing throughnthe hole . Miles will not change . He gets caught up with this ( I ll show you we gonna run it down your throat ) . Spread em out let em play if we pass for 400 yards so be it if its there take it if not try something else. I understand we young , but playbthese guys to fit there talents

We can’t run the ball like we normally can.

Bottom line: we are completely green at QB. We are unproven there.

Any coach from Little League on up is gonna stack the line and stuff the run, forcing us to see what we have at QB.

With very few exceptions, QB's take time, game time, to mature.

While the OL has been a disappointment, 5 vs 8 loses almost every time.

IMO the key is finding TE and underneath routes. Jennings has proven to be a deep ball thrower. But the 2-3 times a game that might happen aren't enough to loosen a D up.

Les Miles power running game offense works best when LSU has a great defense. It allows LSU to control the clock and wear down defenses and win games in the fourth quarter. BUT....we don't have a great defensive front 7 and have played from behind against the 2 best teams we have faced.

The offensive game plan used in the 1st half against Wisconsin and MSU will get us maybe 2 more wins this year (NMS and Ky). LSU does not have a dominate O-line or D-line at this point. IF the future of this team are the young skill players then tailor the offense around them.

If we are going to lose games because of inexperience at qb then I would rather them use a balanced offense that at least gives us a chance to win. These young qb's cannot mature by handing off on 1st and 2nd down and passing on 3rd and 8.

Why is it, that other schools can prepare young qb's to play early in their career but LSU seems to struggle? Why does LSU recruit athletic qb's and turn them into drop back passers?

Miles stubbornness will be his down fall. I think Miles is starting to believe that all LSU has to do to win is just show up, but we don't have the talent like 2011, far from it. Miles made absolutely no changes to his offensive game against Alabama that was only able to produce 3 field goals in the first game and produced 0 in the re-match.

I called for Miles to be fired even when LSU was 7-0 (after we got the re-do against Tennessee) but he grew on me and I accepted his quirkiness. I even said he may be a retard but he is our retard. Many LSU fans have complained about the offense for years, yet Miles produced wins. NOW that offense cannot produce wins, so something has to change......either the offensive philosophy or the coach.

I am not making a knee jerk reaction because of the MSU game. I felt like 8-4 was very likely this season and a loss to MSU was likely. My frustration is we continue to do the same things over and over again but expect the results to be different. That only works when you play an inferior opponent and this year we are the inferior opponent.

we all thought the same thing about JJ. Miles rode that ship straight to hell.

No it worked, we won the sec and played for a title. Diff is the best qb on the roster just happened to be mett and they werent going to risk it in 2011 and im glad they didnt. This is a diff situation, you can go to harris now. jefferson wasnt bad in 2009 as far as being a first time starter, he just never improved.

Crowton offense

No not really. You guys are blind. Crowtons offense was always mass confusion and stupid substitutions. Out smarting his own players. This shite we run now is simple. We just dont have the line to over power teams.

Leee did that. JJ nearly sunk the battleship on the way there.

You're glad they played inferior talent?

he actually got worse every year. There was a thread. Stats and all.

Yet we have run the lead toss followed by the no huddle lead toss since Miles has been here.

This is cringe inducing. Followed by the bubble screen on 3rd down for -2 yards.

JJ says hi

if miles keeps playing jennings he'll lose games and the fan support. crowds will dwindle. no one is excited about this teams play with jennings in and the scheme being so stupid.
