vs. 2016 Harris, sure, but assuming he hasn't forgotten how to do what he did last year, 2015 Harris - on the whole - was just as good, if not better, than Etling thus far.
No. The difference in football IQ between the two is staggering. Harris interception to end the Wisconsin game put me off the Harris bandwagon and I was a pretty big supporter. That was unforgivable.

You wouldn't progress either with your O line doing its best imitation of a slice of Swill cheese.

The difference between Mett's first year and his second was pretty dramatic. Give the kid a chance. We sure gave BH a chance (well, given the putrid mismatch of QB skills and offensive philosophy).

Stop it. You are comparing stats from different years, while one of the players was at a different school in a different conference.
We have evidence this year. Etling came in and looked like he had a clue, which Harris has not shown in 3 seasons.
You are making this far more complicated than it needs to be. If you can't see that Etling needs to be the guy, unless he loses his job, then you simply don't know what you are watching.
Why you would want to start at square one, with essentially a new coaching staff, with less than a week to prepare, only serves to show how shortsighted you are.

Etling isn't much better than Harris if at all
Why don't we quit beating up on QBs/Players until we see what a week of dedicated practice does for them.

Etlings pick in Jville stte and the near pick on the post last week is no different. WR didnt have a chance at the ball on the near pick in auburn game. The mishandled fumble, and his part in clock managment, puts them on equal ground as far as im concerned.

No different than throwing a game ending pick on first down in opponent territory?
I'm starting to think our fans are idiots, and Miles was just trying to be relatable.

And if that is Etling's worst game, Harris has had multiple games far worse than that. It's not even close.

People see what they want to see. Etling is smoother so all of a sudden he is playing QB at a different level than Harris has ever done? You know they're in trouble when they tell you it's not a stat thing, it's an IQ thing or some other BS.
Those last 3-4 plays Saturday night were some of the worst football IQ you'll see, but apparently he gets a pass.

Wisky is better than Auburn
Maybe, with their new quarterback. The quarterback who led them vs LSU would never lead them to victory vs Mich. St.

Fair enough. He'll have better defenses than Auburn so I hope you're right.

Dude you need to give it up,Etling may not be the best but he's better than Harris

Or just dropping the football on 2nd and 2 on the opponent's 32?

The lack of clock management on the last drive was just another example of LSU not being prepared for situations.
Equal ground? Harris had plenty opportunity to being the guy. Etling deserves a fair chance and I like what I see thus far.
All up on BH's tip!!!

- threw the ball directly to defender at the end of auburn (int over turned)
- fumbled handoff to fournette
- snaps ball before his wrs were set in final seconds
questioning peoples intelligence is not wise. youre asking us to ignore a lot

Harris has had multiple games in his career that were far worse than anything Etling has done. It's not hyperbole, it is what is actually happening on the field.
You don't get it, and you won't ever likely get it.

honestly havent seen bh operate the same offense. would like to see him run some of the stuff that de has been running. in any event, de nutted up late in a critical game. if im interim, give both a shot.

The talent Harris had to play against is far better than Etling had to play against.
How do you account for Jackson State? They both played in that game.
You believe that Wisky has more players than Auburn that will be drafted?

He led them down the field to put them in position to score, and if you would like a basis of comparison, see the last offensive play for LSU vs Wisconsin. Is that not what we are discussing?
