re: Jarrett Lee Should Start

i agree, specs .. if anything .. give lee a designed series or two a game, like LSU traditionally has with mickey guidry/tommy hodson and matt flynn/ryan perrilloux .. at least give JJ a chance to watch the game a series or two from the sidelines just to see what the opposition is doing ... i just never ever understood the ridiculous amount of praise and hype that got heaped on JJ after last season ... he had one good half at arkansas .. and one good half in the chick-fil-a bowl .. and that was it ... there were actually people associating this guy with the heisman trophy .. and i just didn't get it ... it was obvious last season that his grasp of the playbook was very very limited .. like 8 plays to either side of the field, when that breaks down, play streetball and run ... it hasn't improved this season even with a complete off season as the ordained golden child with one-on-one tutelage from the puppetmaster himself ... jefferson can't read defenses on his own and make adjustments -- hence the stupid, momentum killing troy crap at the line where he has to stare at the sideline to get signals ... JJ throws a HORRIBLE deep ball that looks like crowton has all but abandoned .. his balls flutter and die in the air ... we have deep ball threats galore in jo jo, reuben, etc. and he can't get them the ball ... he locks in on one receiver (usually jo jo) and then fricking panics when he is covered .. the extra second or two that he takes to make his decisions after that usually render his eventual scramble into a useless two or three yard trot out of bounds or a straight up sack ... for all of his speed and athleticism why can't the guy make something happen when the play breaks down ??

i am not trying to castigate the kid .. but something's very wrong here ... we watched les' stubborness last season with the co-defensive coordinator crap destroy last season ... now we have to watch this crap ... i am not saying yank JJ .. but don't throw lee out back in the dumpster either ...

Not that JJ was GREAT but the coaches have more to do with calling plays that can be made than a sophomore taking over the game. Spread it OUT and shep or JJ can play...

dude, crowton is calling the plays he is comfortable with JJ running ... that is why it looks basic and vanilla .. because JJ's grasp is basic and vanilla ... JJ sees MAYBE 1/3 of the field when he is comfortably in the pocket .. even less when he is on the move ..

you realize its play calling by the coaches right?

you do realize JJ's pocket awareness is so bad he got sacked by a 3 man rush right?

It may do some good for JJ to sit back and watch from the sideline a bit. Lee needs to play one series per half imo, like Mickey Guidry used to.

I would rather have a QB who is willing to take chances throwing to ALL AMERICAN WRs, than someone who is scared shitless in the backfield. We were 5-0 going into the game, but we were LUCKY to be at that point. Look at our Offensive stats. You can clearly see that there is something very wrong. You know what it's called when you do the same thing over and over again and expect something different? Infrickingsanity

JJ couldn't solve a defense last week that an ANEMIC tennessee offense bitch slapped 45-19 yesterday ..

so why would you want JL on the field? If JJ can't handle it what do you think would happen if JL got on the field?

i mean a mentally handicapped Crompton put up 45 on UGA. you're right and you know what, i'd love to put in Chris Garrett before Lee.

i am saying a series or two .. not outright bench JJ for him

I agree totally.
