I think Les is the type of coach that would rather a qb that won't lose the game for him. He would rather Jefferson take sacks than lee throw ints. Lee is the type that will hit the big play for you then give up a big one right after.
Jefferson is a more conservative qb

Excellent point, and one I should have presented.

If Miles is playing Jefferson because he's more conservative then he needs to make major changes on both sides of the ball. On defense...this bend but dont break defense won't work with a conservative QB, it puts the D on the field too long. On offense, he needs to can Crowton. Crowton relies to heavily on QB play and a conservative QB does not match well with what Crowton wants to do (God knows what that is)
For the offense we run, Lee seems to be a better choice. But if Miles wants to become a run first, play action team - Jefferson is the right man. Miles keeping Crowton is by far his biggest mistake.

I honestly at this point would rather have a gun slinger who may throw ints.. but also moves the chains and puts up points on the scoreboard..
Jefferson had the offense so stagnant at times.. it was unbearable to watch.. and the sacks were getting beyond frustrating.
I also think if Lee is given a shot.. that he will not throw another pick 6 for the rest of his career at LSU.. the percentages are HIGHLY in his favor.
*ALSO* to the poster putting all the guys intercepting LEE.. thats mainly from one season.. Surely there's been guys to lead the league in interceptions (especially early in their career) who wind up turning it around..
I use to be the biggest Jefferson supporter and Lee basher.. but again I can only take the stagnant offense for so long.. Even if the offense wants to go RUN HEAVY i still think Lee should be the starter at this point.
