Loyalty and stubbornness can be good qualities. But this is over the top. And I don't necessarily mean switching QB's. I mean trying whatever you or anyone around you could possibly think of to have your team move the ball.

Look, Les deserves a lot of the blame with sticking with JJ for the entire game


No, Les deserves blame for scrapping a functioning, productive offense for JJ based on Lee's two bad quarters v Bama. Did he scrap JJ last year after his multiple shitty quarters?

Les screwed the pooch. He nearly screwed it vs Georgia but TM7 saved his arse.

They had a whole month and some more to prepare for a game that was full of repetitive options, fullback dives (AT A STACKED NFL 3-4 DEFENSE) and bubble screens. The OFFENSIVE coaching staff should be ashamed of themselves. The defense did a great job.

There will ALWAYS be unsatisfied fans. It's part of the sport. Can't handle the heat? GTFO the kitchen. I have no problems with JJ. I wish him the best of luck, but he is not a QB. He'd be very lucky to make an NFL practice squad.

Why Boo - I chose to laugh my arse off everytime JJ came back into the game after the 2nd series and with every mistake he made.

Just laugh - it feels better.

PS - maybe JJ should have studied some game film and not been like a deer in the headlights - AGAIN ........

21 year olds are considered men not boys! They aren't in high school, they play for one of the highest profile college programs! If JJ can't handle boos then he should have never played at the qb position. Qb is the leader of the offense. Bottom line is he looked scared and lost. Everytime something went wrong he was looking at the other guy, like it was their fault and not his.

Poor JJ will live the rest of his life hearing boos in his head when he thinks about his last game as a tiger. How would YOU like that?!



I seriously doubt that. JJ only cares for JJ and no one else. Just listen to his interviews, he never takes responsibility. It's always someone elses fault. That's not the mark of a leader, that's the mark of a coward. And Miles is a dumbass for buying into him.

Boooooooooooo!

With that said, I'm sure most of the boos were directed at Miles and not Jefferson. Jefferson didn't have control over personnel decisions. Most people were frustrated that Miles refused to make a change.

Nevertheless, I'm sick of the "these guys are just kids" argument. These guys receive adulation of near-deity status from adults 20 to 30+ years older than them (see 50 year old guy wanting to stake out the hotel to get his t-shirt signed) and such treatment seems to be acceptable. However criticism of those who us fans "glorify" seems to be intolerable. Booing isn't productive, nor could 99% of the fans perform better than the players being booed. But if you're going to bask in the glory of cheers when things are going well, then don't bitch when the boos rain down when things go wrong
