Find a QB who CAN do at least SOME of those things on your list

Well, we know from media reports that JLee does #1 better in practice
quote:

1) He cannot run the option

We also know from watching him last year that JLee is better at #3, #4, #5, #6, #7, #8, and #9
quote:

3) He cannot and will not throw deep

4) He has no pocket awareness

5) He's timid. His call up to the booth in the Ga. game proved that

6) He drops back 7 to 10 steps on most passes

7) He takes forever to wind up on his release

8) He's gets "happy feet"

9) He requires a simplified playbook

So there is more to why JLee is not playing than the fact it led the offense better. I mean when you're are one of the 10 worst offenses in the nation, you gotta change up something.

Also, a college QB should want the ball. At the end of the GA game, Jefferson did not want the ball in his hands.

Scott bailed both he and miles out.

For the 1000th time, as was said last year when people were calling for Jefferson, do you think a QB change is really going to lead to offensive improvement? If Lee with a productive running game and sound pass blocking was a historically subpar quarterback, how can anyone figure that he will fare any better without a productive running game and without sound pass blocking?

Our offense is unfortunate, without a doubt, but the troubles at quarterback this year have been overstated. Have we forgotten 2006 already? The 2006 Auburn game and 2009 Florida game are eerily similar. I'm not saying that Jefferson is going to become a top flight QB like Jamarcus Russell, or that he isn't too hesitant at this point, but perhaps playcalling and a substandard running game are the real issues here as they appear to have been back in that game in 2006?
