This is a serious question...No Sarcasm intended.

At home, on the TV, the camera-men follow the QB, until he throws the ball. So I can't tell whether or not the WR's are getting open. So for those of you at the game, can you elaborate?

Jefferson holds onto the ball for too long. Jefferson wants the receivers to have a ten-yard halo surrounding them, but you won't get that at this level.

Sit in upper and rewatch all games. Receivers are open.

Problem #1: Jefferson waits until after the cut to decide to throw. Therefore, the only chance he has at completing the pass is if they are so wide open no one is within 5 yards. Against good teams, this won't happen.

Problem #2: No touch to throw the ball to a spot and let the receiver run under it.

Problem #3: Looks at his primary route the entire time. He is trying to force the ball to DeAngelo Peterson all game.

Problem #4: Doesn't have that competitive drive that makes athletes great. He's a whiner/complainer.

this. our receivers routinely get separation downfield. JJ is NOT able to deliver the ball.

He needs to sit the bench.

I saw plenty of opportunities to get the receivers the ball and JJ did not. JJ's problem is he doesn't anticipate where the receivers will be, he waits until they are completely wide open, which just doesn't happen that often.

His timing appears to be way off. LSU has always run a lot of timing routes and with the inability to check down to the 2nd and 3rd reads there were missed WR's all night. I saw two plays that stuck out where Randle had at least 5-6 steps on 35 yard crossing routes over the middle and JJ never saw him.

When you have no pocket presence and stare down a single receiver it makes it hard to see the other options

JJ has yet to learn what the hell a progression is. He lives and die with his first option 95% of the time.

Against MSU the WR's were fairly covered.. Against WVU our WR's were literally WIDE OPEN most of the game.. It was scary how open they were sometimes.

See if you can see the play when LSU was on the our own 20 where JJ was sacked. Then look at TT and how JJ just stares at him while he is literally open by 10 yards. I cant for any reason figure out why he didnt throw the ball. Went from easy 80 TD to a sack.

Another problem is him misjudging the lead on the throw

WRs with good separation need to slow down considerably to line up with the ball trajectory.

JJ must not know the WR's routes if he's waiting for them be open.
