re: Avid Miles Supporters - Did we finish the season without having a backup QB?

A lot of you are saying that Lee must have done something to prevent Miles from playing him. This is your defense when people question Miles' decision not to play Lee in the last few games. If that was the case then why wasn't one of the other QB's on the roster prepared as the backup QB? So that that leaves us with two possible scenarios for what occurred.
1) Miles is stubborn and was going to play JJ no matter what happened win or lose. This means Lee was crapped all over and seriously disrespected in spite of him taking the high road throughout this whole process. This makes Miles a douchebag.
2)Lee did something negative that made Miles decide he wasn't going to play him going further no matter what. This means that we finished the season without a backup QB. If you knew that you were not going to play Lee under any circumstance wouldn't you prepare one of the other QB's on the roster as your backup? This makes Miles a dumbass for not having a backup QB.
So which scenario do the avid Miles supporters go with?
quote:At least your consistent with your false dichotomies. It could be that avid Miles supporters choose to ignore false dichotomies.
There must not be any avid Miles supporters left to defend his actions.
quote:Georgia and Alabama are the only top ten defenses LSU played in games this year. Lee did not fare well at all when he played a top ten defense.
If Miles didn't realize by halftime that JJ wasn't the best chance to win, you can call him whatever you want and you would be correct. Hell, he should have known after the UGA game.
Of course, the LSU offense goes against a top ten defense everyday in practice.

I was a miles supporter and still am. Do I think Lee should have played? Yes. Do I think it would have made a difference? No, unless the play calling was different.
Other than Saban, most people that hate miles can't come up with a better replacement. The fact is that he still recruits great and there are no better options. If you remove the NC game, I bet 99 percent of people would have loved miles and wanted to keep him. You don't all of a sudden become a terrible coach when you have a bad game.

Jordan Jefferson was sacked 14 times in 100 pass attempts this season. He took a sack on 14% of his pass attempts.
Jarrett Lee was sacked 4 times in 167 pass attempts this season. He took a sack on 2.4% of his pass attempts.
Jordan Jefferson has 2 interceptions in 100 pass attempts. He throws an interception on 2% of his pass attempts.
Jarrett Lee has 3 interceptions on 167 pass attempts. He throws an interception on 1.8% of his pass attempts.
That means that Jordan Jefferson either throws an interception or gets sacked every 6.25 pass attempts
That means that Jarrett Lee either throws an interception or gets sacked every 23.8 pass attempts
Jefferson is obviously the better choice to handle the pass rush.
