so what if jj makes some bad throws?? What if JJ had been named the starter, threw some awful passes like a lot of freshman do,would you all be calling for his head also?

I'd be asking to see what Lee could do. It's not some out of this world idea to want to look at another QB when the current one is so poor.

For the last GD time, give the dude a break..we weren't going to go undefeated this season..a 3rd NC is nice but that does not mean we will stay on top like some delusional bama fans think they forever will..it's the SEC, and we have a freshman at QB, so don't get all surprised like you never expected any of the interceptions or bad plays to happen..let it go..

Agree, except Bama is a game we should've won. That's the first game that Lee REALLY cost us. Single handedly, he lost it.

And for the love of all things with Jesus' name in it..can we PLEASE STOP BOOING LEE??? I mean im sure the students don't care..seeing as most are drunk as shite..but that would be pretty acceptable if the guy was a JR. or SR. and just plain sucked..fact is..he just hasnt lived up to his potential yet..

Whoa whoa whoa whoa, I don't think anyone booed him Saturday. He got cheers during the opening lineups and wasn't even really booed after terrible throws. He will get booed against Troy though, sadly.

The guy has a rocket for an arm, and though he makes some bad decisions, i beleive that his game management skills will change with time and he will be the next flynn, mauck type(except with a better arm).

Because he's white, eh? Dude has a Marcus Randall arm and brain without the mobility. Good thing is, Marcus was a senior, so hopefully Lee will improve.

quote:
Don't quit on him yet

I won't, but I will say this, Lee does not give us an opportunity to win right now. All a QB has to do when push comes to shove, is manage the football game. Jarrett Lee does not manage the game at this point in the season. He may one day, but he doesn't right now. We didn't need Tim Tebow to beat Bama this weekend, but we did need someone to keep the mistakes and positives even. He didn't. His mistakes greatly dwarfed his positives, which is why we lost.

He played equally as bad against Tulane, which tells me that regardless of competition, he's just not very good.

True..but what freshman plays lights out..picture-perfect games against every opponent? yes tulane blows & if lee was a soph. right now id have a helluva lot less tolerance for him playing like that..again..think what peyton manning did as a freshman..

True..im just trying to call out the people saying he's so much BETTER than lee..i mean yeah, i guess if he's only handed the ball off, therefore thrown no picks, that qualifies him as better? I think Jefferson DEFINETELY needs his shot..weve already seen that Lee is playing like a freshman & has problems, but those can be fixed over time..i agree though..Jefferson needs his shot..i hope he puts up 10 TD's against Troy

I don't think anyone could deny that

No, he got booed..i heard him get the cheers at first, and that was cool..but i was sitting on the lower east side at about the 30 yard line, and the student section booed him after his first pick...not too loud..but you could definetely hear it..

Yeah, man, Yeah..because he's white..lol..and yes he's got TONS of time to improve..i hope he does by next year, cause i think we can beat bama @ home without them having a legit starting QB..

Exactly why my argument isn't that he is the person we need right now..hell..casey dick would have been better but he's not our qb..my point is that people should at least slightly support him..and quit saying that he sucks, needs to transfer, etc..

i mean, shite, this guy is a redshirt freshman trying to lead the defending national champs against top teams with 92,000+ looking on? i'd be a little over-anxious too..just give the guy a break, at least until we can see him play next year or so..& good luck jordan!
