Avid Miles Supporters - Did we finish the season without having a backup QB?

A lot of you are saying that Lee must have done something to prevent Miles from playing him. This is your defense when people question Miles' decision not to play Lee in the last few games. If that was the case then why wasn't one of the other QB's on the roster prepared as the backup QB? So that that leaves us with two possible scenarios for what occurred.
1) Miles is stubborn and was going to play JJ no matter what happened win or lose. This means Lee was crapped all over and seriously disrespected in spite of him taking the high road throughout this whole process. This makes Miles a douchebag.
2)Lee did something negative that made Miles decide he wasn't going to play him going further no matter what. This means that we finished the season without a backup QB. If you knew that you were not going to play Lee under any circumstance wouldn't you prepare one of the other QB's on the roster as your backup? This makes Miles a dumbass for not having a backup QB.
So which scenario do the avid Miles supporters go with?

i think Miles should've played Lee and don't really understand why he didn't
with that said....i'm not going to demand answers and go into hysterics over it. its over....we'll beat USC in the NC game next season.

I think they both were subpar qbs in the sec and neither of them were good enough to go against Bama on Mon. JJ could at least move around before getting blown up and Lee would have been a sitting duck. Either way, the outcome would have been the same.

There must not be any avid Miles supporters left to defend his actions.

Or Miles thought Jefferson gave him the best chance to win. But Let's all go crazy and call Miles a dumbass and douchebag.

If Miles didn't realize by halftime that JJ wasn't the best chance to win, you can call him whatever you want and you would be correct. Hell, he should have known after the UGA game.

Of course, the LSU offense goes against a top ten defense everyday in practice.

I was a miles supporter and still am. Do I think Lee should have played? Yes. Do I think it would have made a difference? No, unless the play calling was different.
Other than Saban, most people that hate miles can't come up with a better replacement. The fact is that he still recruits great and there are no better options. If you remove the NC game, I bet 99 percent of people would have loved miles and wanted to keep him. You don't all of a sudden become a terrible coach when you have a bad game.

Jordan Jefferson was sacked 14 times in 100 pass attempts this season. He took a sack on 14% of his pass attempts.
Jarrett Lee was sacked 4 times in 167 pass attempts this season. He took a sack on 2.4% of his pass attempts.
Jordan Jefferson has 2 interceptions in 100 pass attempts. He throws an interception on 2% of his pass attempts.
Jarrett Lee has 3 interceptions on 167 pass attempts. He throws an interception on 1.8% of his pass attempts.
That means that Jordan Jefferson either throws an interception or gets sacked every 6.25 pass attempts
That means that Jarrett Lee either throws an interception or gets sacked every 23.8 pass attempts
Jefferson is obviously the better choice to handle the pass rush.

I can think of lots of coaches who would do a far better job than miles. He gets all this credit for recruiting. He will never ever out recruit Saban and with the program we currently have its not that difficult to recruit. No instate competition, top 5 program, great facilities. People give less all this credit. Does he really deserve it ? I think he is overrated and overpayed. He should have never been elevated above a tight ends coach that's all he can handle

Gruden is the answer.

I'm amazed at how many fans think Lee would have won the NC for us. It's the ultimate in Monday Morning Quarterbacking. 
And for the record, yes, I wish Lee would have been put in just to see what would happen. The simple fact which no one wants to accept is Bama had more motivation to win a 2nd game. It all comes back to that. It showed on both teams Bama wanted it more.

What made it a great defensive perfromance? Our offensive scheme. Answer this, if there is no threat from a team to throw te ball down the field, what is a good D.C. going to do? Load the box. Bama played with 9 in the box the entire game. LSU threw downfiled 3 times- 1 caught and 2 bad passes. All three times the receiver was open.

That was the alternative for Miles.

he already did. and the difference between the top 8 or so recruiting classes is extremely small....but i wouldn't expect you to understand that.

he just went 13-0 in the SEC and has lost 3 games the last 2 years. you just make yourself look stupid when you post shite like this
