Try Lee at QB, put Ridley in the I formation, bring in an extra TE and pound the ball. We have the type of back that can do that. Much like we did when Hester was here. Use the play action with some bootlegs and roll outs in the passing game. Then bring Shep in on some Wildcat packages. Enough with the cutesy option crap, we don't have Denard Robinson at QB so give it up.

We're on the same wave length. I agree this is why Miles hasn't made the switch and it's an honorable thing. But I'm also of the view that we're past the point where chemistry goes the other way. We'll see if Les agrees. I have said my peace.

Great post Mike. I just don't know how JJ still has his job. LOOK AT OUR PASSING RANK!

Hear him Les.

Hear him.

I've been deeply in your pocket the whole time. But man, this is beyond the pale now. Jefferson has to sit. It's not gonna happen.

Try something else.

Every QB in the game of football throws a pick. The shite happens.

There is no way possible that he could hurt our offense more than it is already hurt.

76 yards passing. I wish I could find a stat showing how many QB's have completed a single pass for = or greater distance this past weekend. That was our game total with three 5 star wide reciever's.

Very nice blend of praise and criticism. I like it and agree 100% with everything you said.

Thank you admins for stickying this.

Wish someone could put a copy on Miles desk to ensure he at least sees it.

Good letter. I am amazed that we have so much elite talent and essentially next to none at QB, and at offensive play calling. It's painful to sit in Tiger stadium and watch.

Pick ....QB problem. Six, not the QB problem. Two years ago.

I thought this was an outstanding letter. Certainly your main point about the QB play & decision of continually playing JJ despite his horrific performances was right on. I would only add that I think the OL could play better with more of Faulk & Branch and less of T-Bob.

regardless of what you think of JL 2 years ago, the options are JJ and get what we are getting now or JL and see what he can make happen. It is that simple. Yes he will throw a pick at some point. Hell it may be the first pass (highly doubt it) but he needs to be given the same chance JJ has been given to show if he can do it. I mean hell it's the only chance we got.... unless TC can do it lol.

either you are kidding (hope so) or you don't get the point he was making. He has been one of the most adamant Les supporters, if he has lost him then chances are he has lost most of the fan base. I totally agree because I feel I have been in the same position. I have been patient since the RP incident and waited for a recovery. This is not getting any better.

If you think it's bad now, wait until about 5:30 on October 9. This is the calm before the storm.

Very good post that expresses what the vast majority of Tiger fans are feeling. Time to up the ante and give us a link to a Paypal account to contribute for Advocate newspaper space.....SERIOUSLY.
