The only way it wouldn't have been an open competition would have been if Mett hadn't been allowed to practice or play in the Spring scrimmage.

Since he did both, it was an open competition.


So Drew Brees, Peyton Manning, and Tom Brady are in open competitions for their job or are you saying they are the only 3 that take snaps in practice for their teams?

Open competition meant that JJ was the incumbent and either Mett or Lee has a chance to take it away and so far they haven't.

And in your stupid sig quote, JJ does get the edge in the experience part which is what I think he meant.

You have a 2+ year starter in the SEC no less.
A senior in which the light comes on more times than not.
Chemistry with the recievers, oline, and backs
Better athlete
A qb coach to finally help him on his much needed passing fundamentals.
All kinds of pros indicate that he has a strong arm(so no matteR how rocket armed Mett is, the need for more arm strength isn't needed.

The only thing Mett is beating JJ on is mechanics and accuracy(which is like most important to a passer) so I can see why he is not starting day one. That doesn't mean that he can't take the job during the season but c'mon people, the only time somebody new comes into a qb situation and takes the job from the starter before the season starts, is usually the all around the better player.

He doesn't have enough to take the job and since this is a great chance(stars aligning) to win it all, Miles is preparing who he thinks will best lead his team GAME ONE.
