Uhhhh . . . You say that "Jefferson only throws short passes" but then you say he has 4 completions over 20 yards. So, really, Jefferson doesn't only throw short passes. And of course, my point was that if you ignore Jefferson's passes over 20 yards, you're gonna think he only throws passes shorter than 20 yards. It's kind of axiomatic.

only 2 out of 9 drives did he produce more than 1 First down.

Your grasp of the facts is painfully deficient, again. Jefferson did not even have nine drives.

In the drives he did have, Jefferson picked up crucial first downs on several of those drives.

Moreover, on several of the drives that Jefferson had, he could not have picked up more than 1 first down before LSU crossed the goal line.

quote:
i understand checking down is what QBs are supposed to do, but not on every pass play. go back and watch the game since you have it recorded and you'll see, that he checked down on about 7 of his 10 completions.

Oh, we're going to play this game. I ask which plays, and you say go watch the tape. Hey, you say he did it, why don't you tell me which plays he did it on.

quote:
well LSU won't have the luxury of playing them for another 8 weeks.

Translation: Yeah, truck man screwed up, again, but he won't admit it.

quote:
we'll also see the continued digression of the LSU offense

I don't think that word means what you think it means.

4 out of 33 completions have went for over 20 yards, that's 12%. if you are telling me that's a good average with the downfield receiving threats we have, then you are just missing what i'm saying. (which i'm sure is possible, because you only see STATS)

he still only lead 2 drives in which he picked up more than 1 first down. he had 2 drives which started inside the opponents 30 yard line 1) Ridley broke for a TD 2) they gained 6 yards and kicked a FG. that's the only 2 you can count that if they would have picked up more than 1 first down than they would have scored. on the others he was in plus field position picks up what you call "a cruical 1st down" then the drive stalls and they have to kick FGs.

i have no interest in rewatching that putrid game to chart the throws he's made. we'll just agree to disagree here.

actually not really. because although Ole Miss has lost to Vandy and Jacksonville State. they are playing with young talent and will get better as the season goes along. by the time they play LSU, i expect them to be more mature and playing better football and Ole miss/LSU games are always close.
