1) JJ's production stats are better on average than Flynn


This is informative, but the problem is that we can get by with bad production from the QB spot and still win games against crappy teams. Not against good teams. If it exists, the variation is important. Flynn's stats were better vs good teams than Jeffersons have been.

Now why, well we dont know for sure, but partly cause Flynn was closest to 100% for the VT and Ohio St games (where he was good) and injured for most in between.

Define good/better.

Flynn put up higher yardage totals but LSU typically ran more plays.
He also turned it over more (3 picks vs. Bama [who was actually horrible that year], couple picks against Arkansas?). Flynn also played spectacularly shitty in some games, but as you mentioned, he was battling injury all season.
