re: inside the 5...ware should get all snaps

I concur with the underlying premise
that Mett is not effective passing in short range.
He has the arm for the long ones, and looks NFL ready when he has to pass to the sidelines,
but in his first few games, he was hesitant, and short armed, and wobbled. Vs South Carolina he was better, and if he had not been better than the first few games, LSU would have lost.
But he is still not "there".
From the 10 on in, I would go to the best dual threat we have, and give two or three of them plenty of snaps before the Bama game.
We can work Mettenberger back into the short game act after he demonstrates real competence, which he will have to do anyway.
(there is always call for a short game, like in 3rd and 2.)
If we knew who the dual threat guys are who actually practice, we could carry on a better conversation. We dont know for sure what plays they would call for the wildcat guys. Not enough passing, I am guessing. I remember RS10's QB snaps. Taken down hard, like he was in the 5th grade and the opponents were in the 7th, BOOM! I remember this RS10 snap as QB:
He JUMPED! into a hole at the line, but he was snatched out of the air by someone LARGE who slammed RS10 to the ground like sack of potatoes.
So yes, Ware or someone who is a threat to both run and pass.
On short yardage, even in the middle of the field, like Tebow did, his freshman year.
