“We’re operating two quarterbacks in what appears to be the best possible scenario,” Miles said. “Both guys are really pulling for the other, and they understand that both have a contribution that needs to be made. It appears to me that it’s going well." 2theadvocate

Well, I guess that depends on what the meaning of "well" is...

This something about LM that I do not understand. What about Mr. Jefferson's strengths creates an advantage for the LSU offense. Maybe it is know only to him and the STAFF and some Rantards. BTW, could a discerning Rantard enlighten me about what Mr. Jefferson at QB brings to the table than contributes to winning games...

How many TDs did he run for against UF....and one was called down, which he wasn't. Jefferson does bring something to the offense....the defense has to account for him. With that said...Lee should get the majority of the snaps.

Any one of the multi-talented RB's or WR's at LSU could do the same thing. Florida wasn't scared to run 2 different guys at QB in the Wildcat package. There best offense was the Wildcat package. Shepard, Ward, Randle.... all of them would bring more to the table as a "running QB" than our current starting QB.

You seem to be drinking the Koolaid served to the media who are crooning to the lovely offensive tunes of the two headed monster know as the LSU offense.

You saying that Ridley or another RB on the team cannot run as well as Mr. Jefferson. Know this, he would not make that fade to Toliver in 100 attempts...

Really?? Every drive we scored on except the first one Lee was the one that drove down the field only to give the ball to Jefferson so he could run it in from 3 to 5 yards out whatever it was. Any one of our running backs could have did what he did when he scored the touchdowns.

i agree lee should start but i have no problem bringing in jefferson a time or two in the redzone. its working so why does it matter if a rb can do it? the fact is they have the option to fake the zone read and throw to a wide open rb in the endzone if they need to and yes jefferson is not great but he can make that throw. don't understand why there has to be an issue with bringing him in for redzone offense sometimes if its working

I can't really argue with that....thats assuming those guys can throw. Except for the interception JJ had a decent game...considering he was splitting snaps. He attributed for 142 yards and 2 TDs. Hopefully he's starting to come around.

I did't know that the RBs were taking snaps from center now?

Seriously, I am a long-time Jarret Lee fan and I want him to get more snaps for sure. But even I have got to agree that in those short to the goal situations, JJ does offer a threat to run much more than Jarrett does. I should pan out that the RBs will have easier running down there too if the defense has to worry about JJ keeping the ball on the ground...

And I agree, no way JJ makes that fade to Tolliver...TWICE!!

Much better than his recent performances. He completed 2 third down passes to move the chains. He scrambled for positive yardage as well.

I really do think that he plays a little "lighter" now that some of the non-stop pressure is off his shoulders... could be that the coaches found a middle ground where Lee gets to play and Jefferson doesn't feel like he's just been totally benched so he's still effective... I want Lee to get more snaps, but I see where this approach has it's advantages..

- Could you explain the advantages after looking at the drive stats from the game? Looked to me that we cut our offensive opportunities in half by only playing Lee for 5 drives.

I guess some of u did not watch the game sober. Jl drives the length of the field then JJ gets in close to the goal line. That is not a bad idea however if it wasn't for JL we would be the same old offense that has been bad most of the year.

Stuff like this is just sad. JJ is WAY more of a threat to throw than someone doing it for the first time in a game. While he's not a good throwing qb he did make some nice passes against UF. The more he is viewed as the running qb the easier it will be for him to pass some. Unlike the first few games he is now accepting that he will run and the results speak for themselves.

playing him in the beginning and middle of the game makes for a much more interesting end of the game.

He means being able to take a snap from UNDER center. As in the I.

I want to see some wildcat but that doesn't mean JJ shouldn't be our running qb

Yeah, let's put any one of those at the QB position to let the obvious happen...or let Jefferson do it and you really don't know. F*&^%$ retard

snapper head, who has the longest run from scrimmage?

You see, someone else could but they have not. Someone else could have dragged the DB into the endzone on both plays that TT made but I'd still rather have him as WR.
