Not sure what you mean. It sounded like Miles was talking as if the team had to work around Lee's "shortcomings" and then backtracked later in his quote. Your take?

"I would not be surprised to see Jarrett Lee in this game early on make significant plays and Jordan Jefferson step back in and do the things that he's capable of doing.
Oh how I wish CLM would hire a PR person to help him to publically speak so that this QB issues would not become an issue.
The statement with the "burden" could have been misunderstood by many and he really meant it to mean that the team had to make some adjustments to the change in the QB position. Who knows that change could have been why we are where we are today, however, JJ could have had the same success the first 8 games as well. None of us will ever know.
But what really gets me is when he says he wouldn't be surprised to see Lee in the game early, when in fact, it probably will not happen. He has made statements like "I would have liked to gotten him in sooner", etc., referring to Lee's playing time. Geez doesn't he realize where there is no smoke, there is no fire. Now everybody is going to thinking that Lee is going to get some playing time.

It had to be read in context. Plus we know for historical fact that CLM never puts his "laundry" out there in public, regarding player's or coaches. So, hearing of from that perspective it seems he meant the burden of having to deal with the situation as well as not having the running option at the qb position. The media twist what it can to get us to look at the headlines! Hopefully most LSU fans have enough of an IQ to figure this one out.... for those that don't, there is no use trying to explain it.... if you have to ask, you will never know
