Sorry if I don't live for the moment. I understand that 4-0 is better than most teams but it won't last. Everytime last night Jefferson had an incomplete pass or dropped pass it was as if he looked toward the sideline at Miles and Miles was like it's okay kiddo I've got some ice-cream for you over here when you come back. There's no aggression in his coaching style whatsoever. You won't see other top teams in the country taking this long to change strides in their offensive scheme.

So you would rather be 0-4 with great QB play?


With great QB play this team would still be 4-0 bc with turrible QB play this team is 4-0

If you believe people are booing the players you are either,

"I was just in locker room with an , 8-4 football team. A lot of teams would like to be in that position," Miles said. "Our team is playing great on defense, very good on special teams. ... Our quarterback play has got to get better, it's just that simple. Our guys know it."


Certainly this team has been here before. We understand we must get better and improve. I believe this qb and this staff has a want to improve and improve we will.

Yes we have had 24 months to improve on the same things that we continue to not execute. We have a real appreciation for that. But certainly the fans understand we just need another offseason, spring game and season to try get better.


Heard all this shite before.

I know they work on it but Miles can't be defended after last night unless Lee is just horrible. If Lee is worse than what we saw Jefferson do last night then he is not good enough to play D-1 football. I have seen Lee play and he is not as bad as what I watched last night. Jefferson is actually getting worse. His confidence is shot.
This is bad when a fan of another team sees it too

One to two years after Miles and Crowton get fired.

I am sick of the people who come on here and make make excuses for Miles and coaches. "Dont you think think they work on the passing game every day." Of course they do, but they are doing a terrible job. Stop making excuses for their failures and call them out. If I dont get the job done, I will not be around. The company I work for may being doing great but if I dont do my part, they will find someone else to do the job. Same should be true at LSU.

If thats the case, his confidence was gone long before the booing started

Do alot of teams also want to be in the position our offense is in at this point of the season?

The one constant with our offensive struggles is Jefferson. He lets the drops affect his play and as a leader you can't let that happen.

If they are working on it and we are under 100 yards passing every game, then it's theb very offensive, Offensive Coordinator, Gary Crowton's fault. Looks like Oregon of 2006.

JJ's qb play actually looked half-way decent at the very start of the game, but that didn't last long at all.

You are obviously a JJ or GC fan. That is okay b/c I am a fan of every guy on that team that straps on their gear each week to represent my school.
I NEVER BOO and believe those that did last night are just STUPID and have never competed or been in a slump or any kind.
It is irrational to think that Miles will be fired b/c he wins 8 games a year. What is hurtful, he failed to make a change at OC this year like he did with the 2 headed monster DC job he did 2 years ago.
Sometimes you got to fire people when you are in charge. It is that simple if you make 4 million a year or 40 thousand a year.

I do believe JJ's confidence is shot. He needs to learn good qb's leave their ego in the locker room when playing QB for major programs.
There is no place for it on the field. Confidence es, ego no.
He needs to be humble in and take responsibility for his actions instead of getting on his receivers after drops b/c lord knows h wasn't accurate last night.

While JJ is clearly going backwards and is way worse now than in his first start as a freshman, running that damn drag route 2 yards shy of the sticks over and over again is maddening.

Clearly the staff has ruined both QBs.

Probably so. However, I would not totally count Tn and OM out at this point. Our offense is BAD. Take Peterson's punt returns out of UNC and WVU and we are 2 - 2.

Peach Bowl at 8 -4 and indy at 7 -5
