A roll out pass on what basically a one receiver route. If not open, throw it away.


It was a 2 receiver route but the FB got tackled on his way out of the backfield.

Right. I'm sure they instructed him to turn it over in the redzone multiple times this year.

He is not Jarrett Lee


Lee was really good in the redzone. Even in his FR year. So I guess you are right about Mett not being Lee.

You have to earn your coach's trust. Turning the ball over multiple times in the redzone is not how you do that.

But how does one do that? So now you're ok with Met being a pariah QB for the rest of his career?

Shutting the QB down in the RZ is no way to let him earn your trust.

The FB was Neighbors, who is not much of an athlete or legitmate receiver. It did not give the QB much of a chance for success.

So shut him down from making any mistakes and thus shut down the offense. Good call.

I liked the effort and spirit of Jarrett Lee. Mett has played in so many games for you to set in stone that Lee is better than Mett in the redzone.

Then give him a chance to earn trust in games where the offense must both score and even take a chance or two to have any success.

You can pretend this is a presidential debate to make your points against Mettenberger. But the facts are, this offense is limited and lacks creativity. It is - and had been - an embarassment for a Top 5 program. Out of the elite teams, the Tigers have had the worst offense in both form and function for some time now. LSU lacks receivers this year? Previous crap offenses scared off of talent like Justin Hunter and Mike Davis. I could go on.
