re: The thing that puzzles me about the QB situation: play calling

the offense that Jennings ran is the one Les wants to use. It calls for the QB to make the reads and adjustments, and to identify the pass coverage in order to find the open man. This is probably where Harris is behind in practice, hence the quotes by Les that Harris isn't quite there yet. When Harris was in the team basically ran "check with me" the entire time, which means Cam was making the call after looking the defense over. It's pretty obvious at this point, that Harris in the "check with me" is the more effective strategy. So the dilemma for Miles, much like at other times in the past, stick with what is working now, or continue to try to make progress on the offense you really want to run.
All this. Many colleges use a check with me at all times, so it's not that big of a deal. BUT, i could see it causing some delay of game issues in SEC play. But as you mentioned, it's much better than the alternative.

For cams offense to work you need a qb with a strong arm. Harris is that qb. Mett was that qb.

I watched the game again early this morning, and most of the plays and formations were the same. Main difference was quicker tempo and execution. Sure, we weren't in two TE as much, but it was pretty much what we have been doing. Difference was that everybody handled their business.

I would say yes, but look at the turnovers Jennings has had. Seems to me vanilla playcalling would limit that, but it has done the opposite.

The QB has make decisions at the los about what play to run and where. It takes a veteran decision maker.
Makes sense. Thanks.

This is what I meant in my earlier post when I said the offense seems more crisp with Harris at QB. There just seems to be more of a sense of urgency with the offense when Harris is behind center and it starts with Harris.
