I think one of the announcers had it right last night when they said that every player is trying to make a statement play, so they can stay on the field. The worst of them all is Jefferson. He is so concerned with pulling off that one play that will quiet his critics, he is not relaxing and just playing football. He has fallen so far, only consistent playing will make anyone stand up and cheer for him. Unfortunately, it's usually not consistent playmaking that makes the highlight reels.

Seriously, I had a thought when I started my little rant...

Except for the Ga Tech bowl game, JJ has never looked in rhythm, or coordinated in the execution of the plays.

Even the quick throws this year have been awkward because the receiver was usually covered well and the throw probably should not have been made.

I agree that JL does not have much game success to support an argument for playing time. But even tho he threw all those pick 6s 2 years ago, LSUs O was amongst the top of the SEC. If not for the Malveto fiasco, that would have been a pretty good season.

Time to give JL the ball for 4 - 5 series (some consecutive), and see if he can get a rhythm going.

If he starts to hit short to intermediate out routes, Ridley will have a lot of space to work with in the middle.
