re: are you as bored as me when watching the offense when JJ is the qb?

Dang, all of jefferson family is on rant today!!!

I like touchdowns.... Don't care who they come from as lOng as it counts for the good guys.

I like the different dimensions both JL and JJ bring to LSU's offense this year. Yes, we know he's going to run most of the time; yes, we know JL isn't going to run, ever. But I saw the way JJ coming into the game yesterday shook some things up in the Tennessee defensive scheme and energized the LSU offense when it needed some energizing. JL was able to come back in and was even more effective in the 2nd half. That seems to me to be the best use of our different QB talents. And yes, I think JL is the starter and should remain there, playing most of the game, but IMO it's ok to make room for JJ to play in key possessions.

You get bored watching a 16 play drive that covered 99 yards in almost nine minutes? You sir, are an idiot.

How much credit are you giving to JJ for the 99-yard drive? He ran it once (that I remember...a QB sneak), threw a couple of poor incompletions, and handed it off the rest of the plays.

I would argue that that drive happens with JJ, JL, or Mett in the game. In fact, the following drive with Lee looked very similar, just didn't start at the 1 yd line.

JJ has run the ball better this year than before...seems to have a bigger "want" than when he was the primary QB the past 2 years. His throwing ability does not look improved, so Auburn and Alabama with stack the box when he plays to stop the run.

As long as JJ and JL are moving the chains, it does not matter to me if JJ runs for 50-yards in 3-carries. Teamwork will get us to where we want to be. Points are points regardless of who makes it happen.

I don't want to pick a fight here, but haven't every body we have played stacked the box? Does any body in college football not know that LSU is a run first, run often team?

Doesnt seem very hard to game plan against us when he is in.

From the team's perspective, it's a huge change-up. NoJJ is not the quick hit QB JL is, but he's a totally different threat as a runner. Drop back passer vs roll out. Running vs prostyle. Slow javelin thrower release vs very quick release.

Also when JL says he doesn't mind sharing the role, I'd bet he's being 100% honest. They are very different QBs. Certainly not competitive stylistically. Bringing JJ in to start the 2nd half this week was perfect.
