When the booing started last night, I thought back to the Lee/JJ days. I remember how it always seemed that when Lee was in, JJ was never seen up on the sidelines. Usually either laughing or pouting on the bench.

Last night I noticed Jennings right up there with Miles, wearing a headset and talking to Harris during timeouts. Late in the game, after a scoring drive, the scoreboard showed Harris and Jennings on the bench together talking and having fun. Stuff like that is going to keep this team together and avoid "controversy".

Might not mean much to anyone else but I thought it was awesome and showed maturity and class from Jennings.

I'm proud to have either Jennings or Harris as my starting quarterback

Both seem like great guys on the field and I will always support them on the field because they are true Tigers

Jennings is a winner. That's obvious from the way he carries himself. He understands that football is a competitive meritocracy, that positions aren't guaranteed, that unkind and irrational things will be said by the usual suspects and just work his way through this. I don't think that even the haters think that he won't have to win some big games for us in the future. Sometimes you just have to take your lumps gracefully and live to fight another day.

Jordan actually was near Les when Lee was in, and I saw him cheer the offense on at times. just wasn't always noticeable.

another thing I noticed is all the backup QBs had headsets, I don't remember that from yrs past. usually seemed to be McCartney or whichever backup was signaling plays.

Please, the rant cannot take nice things being said about anyone.

But I agree.

We will need both Qbs to make it through this season. How great was it last season to have Jennings come in against the hogs when Mett got injured? And this season already, when Jennings was hurt, we needed Harris to step up. It'll be no different when Harris starts, we're going to need Jennings at some point to come through like he has in the past. Remember that, despite his rough patch he's been going through.

Jennings could be great out there helping Harris through mistakes and what not. IMO, Jennings reacts too slow to plays, but he knows what he is doing off the field. Having a playbook and film room junkie like Jennings should aid Brandon throughout the struggles this year.

ETA: wow, lot of grammar and autocorrect errors in that lol.

Jennings need only to look at the career of someone like Matt Flynn. You keep working hard every day, because at some point the team will need you.

Two QBs who support each other regardless of who's out on the field. Very valuable thing to have.
