No. Forget about their Pro careers. That's irrelevant. In terms of quarterback play at LSU, Jamarcus was much better than Flynn. Yes, Flynn won a natty, but that doesn't mean he was a better quarterback. His 2006 stats are clearly better than Flynn's stats in 2007

Jamarcus Russell - 2006
3,129 yards - 67.8% Completion - 28 TDs - 8 INTs

Matt Flynn - 2007
2,407 yards - 56.2% Completion - 21 TDs - 11 INTs

I did not know Jamarcus’ completion percentage was so high. I sorta remember Saban and coaches being so frustrated with him not reading the plays and hitting wide open receivers that there were times they were ready to bench him for Flynn.

If there was EVER an example of holding out of training camp as a rookie destroying someone’s NFL career it has to be Jamarcus.
