Why do you think Miles and his staff has trouble developing QBs?

Mett developed nicely

Jennings is still pretty freaking young, so come back to me if Jennings is starting next year and still looks the same

You only really have JJ/Lee to make this case

I'm not ready to throw in the towel on Jennings or Harris, but if you are, go right ahead friend.

Because it is the hardest thing to do. That's why there aren't very many good quarterbacks. Everyone thought Sumlin was great at it after one game, now we all know Kenneth Hill sucks. Why does Sumlin suck at developing quarterbacks? Because its hard.

It's more that they have done a shitty job recruiting. Sure, JJ, Lee, Rettig, etc. have been highly rated, but that's highly rated by recruiting services. They don't know WTF they're talking about. QBs are especially hard to rate, too.

Until we got Harris, Lee and JJ were the only QBs with talent. However, one was a pussy and the other was a moron. That was really just bad breaks.

AJ is developing just fine. He is not very talented - only average. If we're forced to use AJ next year, and I predict we will for the first half of the season, he'll be much improved over this year.

I think the current staff is well suited to develop QBs and has already demonstrated this with Mett and Jennings.

Jamarcus and Mett?
Lets not bail on the qbs we have in our system. Lets not forget Flynn and Mauck were seniors and had been in the system a long time. Give it time. I have always maintained that it is more to do with the line than with the QB's. You either recruit the larger smash mouth style run blockers or you do the more agile smaller pass blockers. Our qb's have very little time to look around and assess the field. This is why most of college football teams try to focus their offense heavy one way or another. When you become great is when you luck into a special talent at QB that excels at both. Remember Peyton Manning and Eli didn't win a national championship. Neither did Brees or any other elite qb for that matter. Fans get too caught up in why isn't our the best. These kids were playing high school not long ago, give it time.

This is actually true because all other QBs under Miles have been at least serviceable. The JJ/Lee situation I believe was more Miles being a bit stubborn in his initial assessment of the more talented QB 3 years prior to 2011.

You just effectively argued against your initial point. Nice.

I'll never understand how this fan base eats their own. Go frick yourself dude.

Cause they only practice the toss dive at practice. The other pass plays you see during the games are made up on a dry erase board while being called.
