Yall think JJ should sit to start out next week. First off, the playcalling until Miles pretty much took over it was pathetic! how do you call that many short passes??? the interception that was thrown in the endzone was a mistake yes but 75% of JJ's problem was that his recievers dropped AT LEAST 5 passes. I also think Crowton feels comfortable with lee because hes so 1 dimensional...crowton literally has no idea what to do with a dual threat QB like dennis dixon. Everyone wants to jump on the Lee bandwagon against a second string defense and one passing play that everyone thought would be a running play..seriously get off the gas...the guy has had his chance. lets not bench JJ...lets Bench Crowton!! We score 17 pts when Miles starts calling the plays! and if it would have been closer all of that running would open up the passing game. and by the way, Jefferson didnt get BENCHED, they were saving him for next week...if he doesnt start next saturday...thats complete BS because Lee threw 6 pick 6's before he was even thought about being benched! F that! and

He needs to work on throwing those types of passes ACCURATELY before he can even start to throw the ball deep alot.

The passes are not thrown with any accuracy.

Jefferson does not equal Dixon.

Jefferson has had more chances.

Teams stack the box against Jefferson making it impossible to run.

Keep telling yourself that. Saving him for what? Preventing him from looking worse? Impossible.

I think JJ should start, but Lee should get to play a few series. And no I'm not kidding you.

Lee had to go down with an ankle sprain before Les replaced him with JJ. I feel that playing out the same way here. obviously it must be something in practice that has the coaching staff scared to put lee and ford in the game.

The only thing worse than the first half play calling was JJ's execution. For the record Lee was not benched in '08. He was injured against OM. Had RP not necessitated his dismissal, JL would be starting as a RS JR. and JJ backing him up as a RS soph. Neither deserved the crappy breaks they were were dealt but it is what it is. Lee wasnt' benched in '08 because there was no one else capable of getting enough offense to keep up with the opposition thanks to Malleveto. Hatch didn't have the arm, and JJ was too green. Then Lee and Hatch both go down, you put JJ in the frying pan and Crowton has shown no ability to deal successfully with a young, learn-on-the-job type of QB. I don't care who plays but the hot hand needs to be in the game.

Playcalling wasn't as a big a problem as execution was on the qb's part...when qb can't execute, limits the plays that can be called...WHOLE DIFFERENT BALL GAME THEN...

What some are calling dropped passes were actually passes that were behind or too low for the receivers (or both) and the receiver tried to adjust to make the catch, got his hands on it, but couldn't make the catch. They were all on plays where we threw short and were depending on the receiver being able to catch in stride and run for more yardage, but the ball was consistently off target so the receivers would have to stop or reach back or reach too far down or all of the above and couldn't adjust soon enough. Even if they had made some of those catches, it wouldn't have mattered much because, having to stop and break stride, they would have had no chance for much yardage after the catch, so they would have been very short gains anyway.

Eight starts as a freshman? What if Jefferson were judged after his first eight starts and then got benched forever because he sucked?

Yes, we scored 17 points when we stopped letting Jefferson throw the ball.

Lee threw 17 interceptions (the fact that 7 of them were returned for TDs was not his fault). Jefferson led the #112 offense in the country. Both are bad performances. The difference is that Jefferson has A) had a playcalling package that was solely intended to protect him from throwing interceptions, while Lee never did, and B) had a defense that could keep him in the game while he struggles and can't produce anything offensively, while Lee also never did. Jefferson has had the luxury of doing nothing the whole game and still going into the 4th quarter with a close score. If Lee went even a quarter without doing anything, he was down two or three TDs and had to make plays to get us back into the game.
I trust the coaches to put our best QB out there. If Jefferson is it, we're in trouble.

Jefferson killed at least 2 of the first 3 drives all by himself with bad passes.

It was a HUGE mistake due to an extremely inaccurate throw.

Not even close to true.
With our schedule, it's going to be hard to switch QBs. I'm thinking we are going to have to stick with Jefferson because we don't have the luxury of getting Lee snaps before a big game.
But, to try and excuse Jefferson at all from yesterday's performance is foolish. It was the worst performance of his career...in the same category as Lee vs. La Tech last year.

it helps the receivers when the balls arent thrown at their feet. The is no reason why with this set of receivers if you through the ball to the right place just some of the time you wont get 200 yards passing! These receivers have the potential to rack up unbelievable amounts of YAC, if they get the ball in stride and dont have to go back for it or try to pick it up off their feet.

You're making excuses for JJ...he's just not a good SEC QB
