First off I think Lee should see some playing time. But geez people is Jefferson so bad that a guy comes in and throws a little five yard pass and hands the ball off a couple times and he is the savior? Dont forget a world where multiple pic-sixes per game was a given. Shouldn't we stay behind the QB who's winning us games?

JJ won't win us games. He doesn't lose us games either. That is not going to cut it though, there is going to be at least 1 game that we need our Quarterback to win for us.

I think he had just one game with multiple pick sixes, but I get your point. At this rate, is he going to win us many more games next season?

JJ has won LSU exactly 1 game in his entire LSU career bub. That was the Georgia Tech game.

He's been playing when LSU has won the rest, but not been the reason we've won any of them.

I thought this year was the year. This is about the same time it started to click for JR RS soph but man to see him back there and doesn't look like he is checking down,,,i saw rb running open in the flat all game and mitchell runnin open down the middle of the field while he was glued on one receiver. I would see how he responds but right now the qb is holding back the offense. I would say them forcing sheperd to be a receiver is bad too because his hands arent where they need to be,,,,,but oh well.

I say take a chance on having a great year with Lee or be doomed to mediocrity with JJ!!

It is that simple. I will take a chance on losing to a cupcake for a possible SEC title.

I don't think anyone here thinks JL is going to take us to a championship, but he deserves an even amount of playing time. It certainly can't hurt.

I see the point in letting Lee play some to see if he has got the it factor. Truthfully, last night after the game I was in the same boat and was like man lee is our guy. However, if he gets a little playing time and screws up are yall gonna be satisifed with jj?

Tdeucen: I was talking bout the length of the pass not YAC.

I say equal playing time only becasue I don't think this team is a quarterback driven team. Like our most recent championship teams, this one is going to be as successful as our defense and running game.

We held Vandy to ~135 total yards, while rushing for around 280. I think the defense is good enough to stop every team we will face, and our running game is good enough to be successful against them too.

Both QB's have enough talent to do their part and not screw up, which is all the team needs to be successful. Big passing is fun to watch, but so are wins. And I think the best chance for the latter is to operate as a running team with a badass defense.

Longer than I wanted (twss) but my .02

Think I saw last night that JJ is 10-5, now 11-5, as a starter. That's nothing to write home about, with the talent he has had around him and the receivers he's had to throw to.

He completed 8 passes for less than 100 yards in more than 3 1/2 quarters, including an interception against a terrible football team. Let's look at some other options before our schedule gets tough.

ok ok--no we dont know if lee will perform better thru a whole game. Or throw a pick 6. It is just one pass, but it is the mechanics i noticed and body language especially. Even when Lee hands off, its better. Its not blatantly obvious what direction the rb is going and its crisp, clean- not sloppy-his pass was perfect.
His fake before the pass was timed right and very crisp. Simple shiat jj cant do and important- i bet jj couldnt have faked the hand off as well and i know he cant pass it as well. Im sure Lee has grown a lot. I do wanna see him play and start, but i hope the coaches make the right decision....Whichever that is. All i know is i saw 3 good things lee did in just 2 plays that jj couldnt do the entire game

This is not baseball. One loss ruins the main objective of the season. We have to identify and correct the causes of that one loss before it happens, not after.

Our offensive performance has been substandard thus far in the season against a depleted UNC team and Vandy, VANDY!!!! Do you honestly think we can go into the heart of our schedule and continue with the status quo?

The light has still not come on for J.J. Lee should get a lot of work with the first team this week.
