How about JJ stats from his first 5 in 10 to JL first 5 in 11. That sounds fair.
How so? 2011 includes an FCS opp and lesser defenses.
Why wouldn't you use the most recent prformance of each QB, unless you were trying to pick stats?

Or realize that both were subjected to one of the most incompetent OC/QB coaches in CFB and blame neither.

Or Lee's interceptions from 2008? Or Lee's stats from the last five games of last year?

Lee is not the QB he was in 2008 or at the end of last year. Did you not see the improvement in his last five starts?

Jefferson is not the QB he was at the beginning of last year. Did you not see the improvement in his last five starts?

So comparing a QB who played all year in a different system with a different OC is the same as comparing it to a QB who had a week to prepare as starter? That makes sense to you?

How about we wait and see what JJ does this year an compare? Since what happened last year means absolutely nothing?


Why can't you look at what LSU has now and appreciate it instead of this incessant knighting for your f'king hero's?

Offense usually gets better as the season goes I thought that was pretty much common knowledge. Lee also played 3 ranked teams on the road. That should even the competition.

It has been my contention all along that it's useless to look at anything that happened in the previous years.

Nice spin try though.


Not trying to spin, how many passing td's did he have?

just curious, considering we are talking about the qb.

You take 3 games out of 13....and isoloate those games.
Wrong. I took five games.

The same number as Lee has started this year. The last five games for each.

not cherry pick 3 games where he played ok
It's 5 games. Seriously. You seem to have a problem with counting.

I did which leads me to the conclusion that Lee will improve the same JJ did as the season goes on.

Then lets look at this year:

Passing Statistics
NAME CMP ATT YDS CMP% YDS/A TD INT RAT
Jarrett Lee 64 108 793 59.3 7.34 7 1 140.5
Zach Mettenberger 8 11 92 72.7 8.36 1 0 173.0
Totals 72 119 885 60.5 7.44 8 1 143.5


Pretty easy decision here.......

You are right. I try to be as fair as possible and sometimes I get baited into defending one side. For instance the wr drops. JL was NOT throwing accurate passes in the Kentucky game yet all we saw was thread after thread about how many drops the wr's had. If it had been JJ throwing the passes it would have been completely opposite and fans would have been saying JJ doesn't hit the wr's in stride. I also find it funny how last year when JJ did have balls hit wr's in their hands the fans said he doesn't throw a catchable ball. I give credit when it's deserved but I am also not so enamoured with a player that I can't give an accurate assesment of his play.

So you have a disdain for people who decide not to attempt to elevate one player over the other? Pretty fricking silly. And petty, which you are becoming more every day.
No. I have no disdain for people who decide not to attempt to elevate one player over the other. If there was never another bash Jefferson thread, I would never post another thread analyzing the facts.

I don't try to elevate Jefferson over the team. I don't try to elevate Jefferson over Lee. I merely compare them.

I leave the choice as to who plays in the hands of the coaching staff. I don't criticize that choice.

I don't criticize Lee starting right now.

I don't say that any player must be a coach's pet merely because the player starts.

His passes could have been better but it was the announcers counting 7 drops. I don't think they care either way.

if we continue to win and JJ has a limited role, would you change your mind on Lee starting?

Good start, then back into the same old pattern. Sometimes how you perceive things skews your view on reality. The reality, it's nowhere as bad as you think.
