The only beef I have with JJ as a fan is his ranting and raving on the sidelines or during the games, and then he ask for patience from the fans as he works on things. It is certainly hypocritical to ask for it from us if he will not extend the favor to his wideouts.

Also, I tend to get frustrated with his answers to the media. I am not looking for him to come out like Tebow and shite, but something like,

"I heard the boos tonight. I would have booed my performance as well. I practice harder than that, and tonight was an embarrassment on my part. I will get back to the drawing board on Sunday/Monday with my WRs and coaches and we will fix this by the time I set foot on the field next Saturday."

I agree with you about the ranting when WRs miss a pass, etc. That can't be helping team chemistry and it doesn't show a lot of leadership. Now, if somebody misses three in a row or something and you just lose your cool, that's one thing. But when it's common, that's not good. I don't like that. I seriously wonder if the coaches communicate ANY of this stuff to him. It certainly doesn't seem that way.

And I didn't care for his answers to the media either after the game. I know people can read to much into a person's words, but saying things like "what more do you want?" and adding that he has nothing to be frustrated about are not encouraging signs. Nobody likes to take criticism, but he seems like he's got a big issue with it. I know it's not easy at all though.

Now, I'm sure he heard the boos and I think it's fine that he says he has thick skin (though it doesn't seem that way). I think he was meaning to say that he heard them, but is not allowing them to distract him.

I think booing too much definitely isn't helping anything and can make a person a nervous wreck. It's bad enough to have to hear them, but WHY must these reporters ask him about it again after the game??!! It's an A$$HOLE thing to talk about to a player!!! Of course he heard the boos you F-ing MORONS, and because y'all keep talking about it, he ain't gonna forget it anytime soon. No Mr. reporter, he didn't here a good portion of 90,000 booing over and over... no, he's listening to Barbara Streisand classics on his IPOD out there you jackazzes. You can ask Les about it cause he's getting paid a $hitload of $, but enough already with asking the players about it.

Anyway, for all these reasons, I think JL should get a chance to possibly help the team. JJ isn't the only problem at all. The O-line had major issues last game that hurt JJ/the team and the WRs caused a pick and stalled drives because of drops. They all need to make improvements. But JJ might need a little attitude adjustment along with some improvement on the field. He seems like a good guy, he just needs some of our leadership (coaches) to help guide him with on the field actions.

Crowton's offenses worked quite well at La Tech and BYU.

Yeah, well this is the SEC. Just because that stuff worked in those patsie leagues doesn't mean it's gonna work in the best league there is.

I'm not blaming it all on Crowton cause I don't know what goes on, but we have had some serious brain farts at times on the offensive side of the ball.

Nothing against Lee, but why are folks so sure that he is better when he is being coached up by the same folks as Jefferson?

This is the way I see it.

7-3 As a Freshman starter. Two losses of those game wasn't nearly his fault. 9-1 if the defense was worth a crap that year.

That Season QB Ryan Perrilloux got kicked off the team Jarrett was forced to start with a Badly ran Defense by Two coordinators. For him being a freshman at the time he threw 13 tds almost had 2000 yards. Didn't get any help from his defense putting more pressure on him to make the plays. Coaches give up on him after the tenth game and I wished this kid could have continued being the starter with two more games left. It was a retarded move to put the blame on this Kid. The Coaches doomed this kid from the start by letting Ryan Perrilloux go and having a poorly ran Defense.

THIS!!!! And I am sorry but Jefferson might be getting put in bad situations but he is not helping himself either. He misses a ton of throws and STILL to this day throws the ball at the ground constantly. I mean if we had Trindon running routes out there we may be in for a treat but unfortunately we don't. His throws have to come up more when trying to hit slants and crossing routes or screens and his throws are way too high when we run curls and gos and if they are not high they are under thrown. his timing is way off and his mechanics are horrible. PERIOD.

Miles and Crowton have done nothing to groom or mold them. Matt Flynn made comments that stated something of the sort when he got to Green Bay.

I agree. It's a bit sickening IMO. I really feel for the two QB's. They are basically hung out to dry.

Yep. And our great, knowledgeable fanbase will continue to criticize them to no end.

They should have fond memories of what it was like being a Tiger when their time in B.R. is over.

Sad.

You're wrong about that. Crowton has been running fences at JJ to improve his pocket awareness...its true I heard it on ESPN..... :

STFU

Receivers were running wide open last Saturday

---

THIS ain't no lie.

A QB that
1) stares down his primary receiver every time
2) has tunnel vision
3) is a slow decision maker and
4) has a very slow, wind-up delivery of the ball
5) is ultra gun-shy to throw a pick and avoid a sack (Can be overdone, resulting in lack of confidence and lack of opportunities)
6) poor touch on his passes
7) can't throw the bubble screen

will:
A) not see the wide-open receivers
B) allow the CB's/DB's to ride the throw straight to the intended target, and breaks up the pass
C)therefore falling victum to a collapsing pocket
D) risk fast DE's and blitzes to sack you or knock the ball out of your hand on that slow-arse decision and delivery
E) result in the QB tensing up and tucking the ball and running when his primary receiver is covered like blanket due to telepathing who his primary receiver is every play
F) result in lots of throw at receivers feet over and over and over to avoid INT's
G) an OC who is strapped for plays b/c the QB cannot execute the whole playbook

quote:

but the OC just does stupid $hit

Sure, the OC is weak (or Mils or whoever is calling the plays), but the QB has SO MANY limitations, that they act together in a pathetic way.

JJ + Crowton = disaster

I'd say 75% a JJ issue, and excaserbated by the poor OC.
