I have no allegance to any player and I do think players can improve but when a player who has most likely played football for ten years should have a better grasp for the fundamental aspects of the game. when the QB of the team whose team is ahead on the scoreboard near the end of any half with just a few minutes left in the half should not run out of bounds on a third and ten play. If that is too difficult of a concept for you to understand the maybe you should attend some those sessions that the coaches have with the bengal belles

JJ simply is not a good Sec qb right now. I hope he improves next yr. early or we are going to be in bad shape again. Still can't seem to know when to run or throw the ball away.

If i'm not mistaken, JJ has started 13 games.

Prior to the NC game, MF started 12.(peach bowl+11 07' games).

the JJ lacks experience excuse needs to end. There are plenty of sophomore QB's that can lit it up. I have yet to even see JJ throw well for an entire game.
Usually his TD drives are benefited by huge runs, penalties, or big after catch moves by our WR's.

I'm ready to see a complete game by JJ.


I'm excited to see more consistent play from JJ over the next year or two (assuming he holds onto the starting job)

And I think it is true he's started more games than MF now... although he was also something like the second youngest guy (by around a month) to ever start at QB (behind Y.A. Tittle if I remember right) according to the trivia from saturday's game

As do Auburn and Alabama to name a couple more. Flynn is an NFL qb. 'Nuff said

Is JJ as slow as he seems or is my TV slow?

the same things were said of JaMarcus Russell. He ended up being a pretty good qb his jr year. I think it's unfair to compare a 19 year old sophomore to a 23 year old senior. But I do think comparing JaMarcus and Jordan at this point in their respective careers as a Tiger is so much more telling. The stats are very similar with JJ actually having the edge especially when you consider that JaMarcus was redshirted and had one more year on JJ.

Jordan is going to be alright.

So youre saying that a first year sophomore QB with barely 2 years knowledge of the playbook and the offense is "more experienced" than a senior starting QB who got spoon fed the offense for years behind J russ?

Crowton consistently calls deep routes for all receivers with no drop offs.


I don't know what you been watching but I have never seen more than 1 guy go deep, and that happens maybe 5 times a game.

one one thousand two one thousand three one thousand four one thousand.
ok, how far down the field is a reciever by now, 30 yards down the field about in a sprint. so now JJ decides to throw and by the time he releases the ball the reciever is at about 40 yards down the field sprinting.
are you expecting him to throw it about 60-70 yards in the air? b/c that's what it would take to make a good through given that much time.

the pass in the endzone mallet threw where chad jones killed that guy, remember that one, he threw the ball less than 3 seconds after the snap, it was almost a 40 yard pass. and he hummed the shite out of that ball.

You do realize that QB is not the only position on offense, right?



Yeah I realize it. Do you?
You do realize that the right guard that everyone has criticized all season was the starting OG in 07 with no experience at that position. The right tackle in 07 was a bench sitting DT until that season when they switched him to OT. Plus we had one experienced wr in 07.

Flynn was in the system at least twice as long as JJ

Crowton called, he wants to know if he can log in to your account and edit this post.

doesn't matter.

He was in a collegiate offense longer. Not to mention Crowton's offense in 07 was not much different than Fisher's in 06.

Flynn was a fifth year senior. There is no comparison there.

FLYNN HAD 4 YEARS IN THE SYSTEM before his senior year. JJ has now had TWO, but i digress, he needs coaching and learn to make better reads and go through progressions faster. It took Mauck and Russell two years in the system before they GOT IT! Davey was in 3 and Flynn 4! Very few are the exception that "get it"with less than 2 years in the system like Hodson and Tyler.

Also, when Colt McCoy was a sophomore, he was not that good either.
Admittedly, Colt's sophomore year was not as good as his Freshman year but he was still pretty damn good. But I get your point.

Then why aren't you comparing JJ to former quarterbacks, such as JR, Tyler, and Hodson who started with similar experience. When he leads us to a national championship, then you can compare him to Flynn

JJ is doing fine he doesn't need any comparison to justify his accomplishments.

I love MF. Matt Flynn started as RS Sr. He was not a teenager like JJ. JJ also has the worst OL in a decade for LSU.
